Sign in to Zhutian from Journey to the West

Chapter 371 Mother-in-law, your hair is reversed
I saw the old man opened the door tremblingly, and an old woman with a full head of gorgeous hair drooping naturally, with a hunched body, a basket on her back, and a bamboo stick in her hand walked in.

I just heard the old man say: "Old woman, why did you come back so late today? Could it be that you met that long worm?"

The old woman put down the basket and said, "Look at your memory, don't I usually come back at this time?"

Just as she was about to pack the basket, the old woman seemed to smell something.

He took a deep breath and sniffed around.

As he was walking, he tripped over the basket that was placed on the ground, and the persimmons rolled out one by one.

I saw that the persimmon fruit actually looks like a human being, with facial features, mouth, nose, eyes, ears, lifelike.The expressions on the persimmons are also different, either frightened, bewildered, desperate, or bewildered...

"Old man, is there someone here? Why do I smell a stranger?"

The persimmons rolling all over the ground seemed to be just ordinary fruits in the eyes of the old man. Looking at the persimmons all over the ground, with pity in his eyes, he bent down and picked them back into the basket one by one.

Hearing the old woman's question, the old man did not raise his head and said: "A group of monks from the Eastern Tang Dynasty went to the Western Paradise to learn Buddhist scriptures. They came to ask for a place to stay at the mountain gate. I saw that it was getting late and heavy rain was coming. Let them stay, now they are in the side room next to the woodshed."

Monkey King came from the side room at this time, although the room was dark, it couldn't block Monkey King's gaze.

Facing the old woman head-on, Monkey King was shocked.

It was really the old woman's head, which was actually the opposite of her body.

But Sun Wukong didn't sense the slightest bit of evil spirit, evil spirit, etc. from the old lady's body.

Is it possible that there are people in this world whose head and body are born opposite?
In Sun Wukong's piercing eyes, the old man and the old woman are just ordinary mortals.

It's so weird, I can't help but admire it in my heart.

"Are you the monk that the old man said went from the Eastern Tang Dynasty to the Western Paradise to learn Buddhist scriptures? The old man sees that you are all frizzy, and you don't look like a monk at all."

I saw the weird old woman sized up Sun Wukong and said.

"My grandson is not a monk, but my master is a monk."

"Oh..., I wonder if this little elder can give me some recommendations? Let's see what an eminent monk is, who has such great ambitions to travel from the Eastern Land to the Great Tang Dynasty to learn Buddhist scriptures from the Western Heaven. We must know that the journey is bumpy, not to mention going to the Western Paradise. It is impossible for ordinary people to walk from the Tang Dynasty to the border of Xiaoxitian."

"My old grandson can't see your details, but I can't introduce you, it will scare my master." The Monkey King looked at the old woman again and said.

The old woman got angry immediately, she couldn't help stomping on the ground with a bamboo stick in her hand, and said, "What scares your master, I'm neither a hungry ghost nor a monster, how did you scare your master?"

Sun Wukong didn't say anything, and pointed at the old woman's head.

"You little elder is a bad guy. I'm asking you something. You don't need to answer it. What do you mean by pointing at my head?"

I only heard Sun Wukong whispering: "Grandma, your hair is turned upside down..."

"It turns out it was installed upside down, no wonder it feels weird." The old woman said, raised her head with both hands, turned it around suddenly, and immediately turned her head straight.

"Hehe, I feel much better now. You can take me to meet the elder who came from Dongtu."

With dark eyes, he stared straight at Monkey King, without the vitality of a living person at all, making Monkey King's scalp numb.

I couldn't help muttering in my heart: What kind of monster is this, my old grandson can't see his real body, it's really weird.

No sense of murderous intent or greed in the old woman, Monkey King thought for a while, and then led the old woman towards the place where he and others were resting.

I can't see it, but maybe Ba Jie can see it. After all, Ba Jie has learned a lot, unlike himself, who doesn't know much.

After thinking about it, the two of them went through the main room and back room to the side room.

Seeing the old woman coming, Tang Seng stood up quickly and clapped his hands together and called out the Buddha's name: "Amitabha"

After saluting with the old woman, he continued: "It turns out that the master's family has come, the poor monk Xuanzang, also known as Tang monk. He was sent by the king of Tang to come from the Tang Dynasty in the east to the Daleiyin Temple in the west to seek the scriptures. To help the world. Passing through the precious land, I saw that it was getting late and heavy rain was coming, so I came to ask for a place to stay. Fortunately, the old man took me in, and the poor monk would like to thank the benefactor."

The old woman sized Tang Seng up and said, "It's white and tender, it looks very fragrant."

Tang Seng thought he heard it wrong, so he couldn't help asking in surprise, "What?"

Monkey King on the side took out his golden cudgel at some point and looked at the old woman vigilantly.

If the old woman acted rashly, the oncoming attack would definitely be Monkey King's bombardment attack.

But the old woman glanced at the golden cudgel in Sun Wukong's hand without any trace, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, our village is called Po'er Village, and it used to be full of people. Ever since a Huang Daxian came from Xiaoxitian, After a long worm came to Qijue Mountain, Po'er Village really became Po'er Village. I don't have any objections to you master and apprentice coming here to stay overnight, but at night, remember not to open the door no matter what noise you hear. .”

"What happens when you open the door?" Monkey King asked curiously.

But the old woman said indifferently: "The people in our village were just curious, and they disappeared after opening the door. From the old man's point of view, they must have been caught by the long worm or the yellow skin for snacks." It's..."

As she spoke, the old woman waved her hands and turned around with a big laugh, and sang loudly: "There is a persimmon forest in the persimmon mountain, and there are persimmon trees in the persimmon forest. All kinds of flowers bloom, all kinds of flowers and fruits are finished, fruit trees are endless, persimmons are ripe, don’t be greedy, good words are hard to persuade, damn it, Po’er Village becomes a persimmon forest, spring, summer, autumn and winter come and go.”

"Hey, old benefactor, don't go, you've made it clear what's going on, don't say half of what you said, it's really ticklish."

Seeing the old woman leave, Drifting couldn't help shouting.

It's a pity that the old woman didn't seem to hear Drifting's yell, and walked towards the kitchen on her own.

Tang Seng at the side couldn't help calling Sha Seng and said, "Wujing, since the old benefactor doesn't want to go into details, I don't have to force it."

As he spoke, Tang Seng began to twist the rosary again, closing his eyes and meditating on the scriptures.

Sun Wukong couldn't help being a little funny looking at Tang Seng's appearance, and thought in his heart: If only he saw the appearance of the old woman before, he would be so calm.

Although the old woman told her not to open the door no matter what sounds she heard at night, this had no binding force on Monkey King, Huang Yang and others, but it aroused everyone's curiosity.

In my heart, I was looking forward to the strange arrival of the old woman's mouth.
