Chapter 132 Zhenhai Chanlin Temple
Chapter 132 Zhenhai Chanlin Temple
After hearing Jiang Liuer's instructions, Pigsy hurriedly ran towards the direction from which the cries for help came.
Not long after, Pigsy came running back, panting and sweating profusely.
Before he could even stand still, he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Master! That woman is just ahead! Guess what? She's tied up to a big tree!"
Jiang Liuer frowned slightly and looked at Zhu Bajie, asking, "Bajie, since you found her, why didn't you save her?"
Upon hearing this, Pigsy quickly ran behind Chen Yi and hid, peeking out to reply, "Master, I think that woman is very suspicious. She might just be a demon in disguise!"
"It's not too late for me, Old Pig, to act after Senior Brother says he'll save her!"
Jiang Liuer shook his head helplessly, sighed softly, and said, "Alright, alright, then you should lead the way quickly."
Upon hearing this, Pigsy immediately replied, "Alright!"
After agreeing to Jiang Liuer's request, he turned around and leaned closer to Chen Yi, whispering to him, "Little Master, you don't know, that woman is so beautiful, but in my opinion, she's probably a monster."
"Be careful when we get there..."
Chen Yi raised an eyebrow and replied in a low voice, "If we're talking about someone who should be wary, it should be Brother Jiang. After all, his flesh is more tender, making him more attractive to those monsters than I am."
Jiang Liuer, who overheard the two whispering, had a dark expression on his face.
These two guys are really something else...
Sun Wukong also came over and whispered in Chen Yi's ear.
"In my eyes, little monk, your flesh is much more tender than Jiang Liuer's. A light touch is enough to make me love it!"
Chen Yi's lips twitched violently, and he muttered to himself that the "young" they were talking about probably didn't mean the same thing!
Then, they followed Pigsy to the bound woman, but none of the three disciples made a move to rescue her.
Chen Yi knew it was a monster, so he didn't move.
"Elder! Help!"
Upon hearing the woman's cry for help, Jiang Liuer turned his gaze to Sha Wujing and said, "Wujing, quickly untie the female benefactor."
Sha Wujing looked troubled and hesitated, saying, "This... Master, what if she's a demon..."
Upon hearing this, the woman burst into tears like a flood, sobbing, "Elder, I'm really not a monster..."
Jiang Liuer was also unsure of what to do, so he asked, "May I ask, young lady, why were you tied up in this desolate place?"
The woman replied tearfully, "I was originally a maid in a wealthy family, but I was taken by the master and framed by the mistress. That's why I'm tied up here and they want to feed me to the wolves and tigers."
"I was sold into slavery at a young age and have long been homeless. I swear to follow you, Elder, and serve you to the death. Please, Elder, save me..."
Upon hearing about the girl's tragic past, Jiang Liuer couldn't help but feel a surge of pity.
"Wujing, quickly untie this female benefactor."
Sha Wujing glanced at Sun Wukong, who hadn't said anything to stop him, sighed helplessly, and nodded in agreement, "Yes, Master."
After untying the woman, Jiang Liuer made a quick decision to take her with him and find her a place to stay after they went down the mountain.
The woman, her face streaked with gratitude, choked out, "Thank you so much, Elder!"
……
After traveling for twenty or thirty miles, the group finally arrived at a dilapidated temple and decided to stay there for the night.
This temple is quite strange. Its exterior is in ruins, but its interior is adorned with green tiles and blue bricks, and is resplendent in gold. It is called Zhenhai Chanlin Temple.
When the old abbot of the temple learned that the woman was rescued by Jiang Liuer in the Black Pine Forest, he placed her in the Hall of Heavenly Kings.
The master and his disciples were placed in a meditation room.
The room was a large communal sleeping area. Chen Yi was sleeping against the wall, with Sun Wukong beside him, and to his right were Sha Wujing, Jiang Liuer, and Zhu Bajie...
In the middle of the night, Chen Yi was suddenly awakened by Jiang Liuer's cough.
Chen Yi nudged Sun Wukong beside him and muttered, "Great Sage, Brother Jiang is sick, quickly get him some medicine..."
Sun Wukong reached out and hugged Chen Yi tightly, whispering, "Okay..."
However, he showed no sign of getting up.
It was Sha Wujing who woke up and hurriedly helped Jiang Liuer up.
"Master, what's wrong? Where do you feel unwell?"
Jiang Liuer coughed several times, his face pale, and said, "I don't know why, but my head is throbbing, my whole body is weak and I can't fall asleep..."
"Master, your face is so pale, you must be sick! Your disciple will go and brew some medicine for you right away."
Sha Wujing said anxiously, and before he finished speaking, he quickly got up and hurriedly walked towards where he had put his luggage.
After searching for a while, he finally found several precious herbs. He then carefully carried these herbs and quickly walked out of the room, preparing to find a suitable place to brew the medicine.
Inside the room, Chen Yi sighed softly. He slowly opened his eyes, then reached for his wrist. A faint light flashed, and a celestial pill emitting a strange fragrance flew out from the gourd mark and landed in his hand.
This elixir was obtained by Sun Wukong from Laozi when he asked for the gourd space last time.
Perhaps because Sun Wukong frequently asked for medicine, Laozi got annoyed and only gave him two pills this time. He had taken one a few days ago when he was sick, so he only had one left.
The reason Sun Wukong didn't get up just now was probably because there weren't enough pills, and they wanted to save them for him instead of giving them to Jiang Liuer.
However, Chen Yi couldn't worry about anything else. Jiang Liuer had saved him, and he couldn't just stand by and watch her die.
He struggled to push away Sun Wukong, who was holding him, with his other hand, and sat up.
Then, he handed the elixir to Jiang Liuer and said softly, "Brother Jiang, quickly take this elixir, and I guarantee it will cure your illness immediately."
Jiang Liuer accepted the elixir, his eyes filled with gratitude.
"Thank you, Brother Chen."
He slightly opened his mouth, put the elixir in, and swallowed it. In an instant, a warm current flowed down his throat and quickly spread throughout his body.
Jiang Liuer, who was originally weak and pale, gradually regained color in his face and his spirits improved significantly.
Seeing that Jiang Liuer was no longer coughing painfully as before, Chen Yi finally felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders.
He smiled and said, "Brother Jiang, you should rest well. I'll lie down for a while longer."
After saying that, he lay back down in Sun Wukong's arms, closed his eyes, and soon fell asleep again.
