Journey to the West Bandits: The Poor Monk Just Wants to Be a Godfather

"Are you Yuan Hong?"

"One of the Six Saints of Meishan when he was conferred upon the gods and measured the calamity?"

Hearing this name, Tang Sanzong was obviously stunned for a moment, and asked with some uncertainty.

Yuan Hong, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly raised his head and looked at Tang Sanzong, with a bit of joy and complexity in his eyes, and said excitedly: "Master, have you heard of my story?"

It has been too long since the Conferred God Calamity Tribulation passed.

Back then, Yuan Hong was imprisoned in the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Map by Saint Nuwa. Space and time were constant. Yuan Hong didn't know how many years had passed now.

All I know is that after the Conferred God Tribulation, earth-shaking changes took place in this world.

The people and things he knew before have changed.

Several other members of the Six Saints of Meishan have become subordinates of True Lord Erlang. How can anyone in the world remember his name Yuan Hong?

Tang Sanzian nodded and said with some surprise: "If the poor monk's prediction is correct, after the Tribulation of the Gods, you should have been directly on the Gods List. How did you appear here?"

As we all know, everyone who is on the list of gods means being tied to heaven.

How could Buddhism allow such people to participate in the Journey to the West and measure tribulations?

Even for those who have not been on the list of gods, such as Zhu Bajie and Killing Wu, they have to find ways to demote them from heaven before they can join the team to obtain scriptures.

Can't the Jade Emperor take Yuan Hong out of the list of gods in order to let him join the team of scripture collectors?

To the Jade Emperor, doing this is like picking up sesame seeds and losing the watermelon!

"I don't dare to hide it from Master. After I was absorbed by the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Tu, it was Saint Nuwa who, out of love for the demon clan, used the clay figurine method to create a clay figurine to replace me on the list of gods."

"I don't know how many years have passed in the magic weapon. I don't know how much time has passed. The Holy Saint rescued me from the Mountains, Rivers, and the State and promised me freedom."

"I also ask the master to accept Yuan Hong as his disciple. The disciple will do his best to atone for his sins and protect the master to obtain the true scriptures in the future!"

Yuan Hong knelt on the ground and looked at Tang San's funeral with a sincere expression.

Just because he was on the wrong team during the Tribulation of the Gods, Yuan Hong experienced endless loneliness and torture in the Mountains and Rivers Society Map.

Now the Holy Sage has given him such an opportunity. As long as he protects the Buddhist scripture collectors and obtains the true scriptures, he can completely become a Buddhist!

Although the price is that I have to do things for Buddhism in the future, at least it is much better than the life in the Mountains and Rivers Society Map!

Furthermore, among the three realms, Heavenly Court and Buddhism are the two most powerful factions, so joining Buddhism might not be a bad way out.

As for the monk Bianji who asked him to become his disciple, he was a mortal...

This is not a problem at all for Yuan Hong!

As long as the saint can do what he promised him, he will not have to return to the mountains and rivers from now on. Let alone ask him to become a mortal, even if he is asked to disperse and practice again, Yuan Hong is willing!

"If you want to become a disciple, I'm sorry, but the poor monk can't agree to it."

Tang Sanzong waved his hand.

Yuan Hong raised his head in astonishment, looked at Tang Sanzong in confusion, and said, "Why is this?"

"There are many demons and ghosts in Luzhou in the north. How can Master, a mere mortal, go to Buddhism to seek the true scriptures?"

Although Yuan Hong was released not long ago, he has been in Kiwi Mountain for so long, and he has almost a good understanding of the situation in Luzhou, Beiju.

Let alone a mortal who wants to cross Luzhou in Beiju to learn Buddhist scriptures.

Even for him, it would be difficult to pass through the monster territory along the way unscathed!

Because he could feel that some monsters along the way were much stronger than him!

"Haha, who am I, my master, who still seeks the true scriptures? How can I be afraid of just a few monsters?"

Sun Xingzhe sneered, looked at Yuan Hong, who was somewhat similar to himself, and asked: "Let me ask you, are you one of the four apes in this world?"

Yuan Hong naturally felt that the aura on Sun Xingzhe came from the same source as him. He nodded and said, "Yes, I am one of the four apes in the world, the Ape."

"You should be one of them, right?"

Sun Xingzhe's face was stern: "I am the Lingming Stone Monkey!"

"It's enough for the master to have only one monkey under his command. If the master says he won't accept you, he won't accept you. Where do you get so many reasons?" The so-called colleagues are enemies. Sun Xingzhe's words made Yuan Hong's heart rise instantly. Got a fighting spirit.

He bared his teeth and said, "Since we are all of the same kind, why does Master accept you but not me?"

Sun Xingzhe laughed disdainfully: "Of course it's because I have good character and strong strength."

"You...do you dare to compete with me? Which one of us wins will become the master's apprentice? How about that?"

Yuan Hong's eyes flashed with fire, and he stared at Sun Xingzhe with burning eyes.

If he cannot become the disciple of the Buddhist scripture seeker and cannot complete the tasks entrusted to him by the saint, the best outcome waiting for him is to return to the dark landscape of mountains and rivers.

As for worse outcomes…

Yuan Hong couldn't help but shudder and didn't dare to think any more.

So he must seize this opportunity no matter what!

"Compete with me?"

Sun Xingzhe curled his lips: "Do you have that ability?"

Yuan Hong raised his head, gently dug his fingers into his ears, and held a water and fire stick in his hand.

"Do you dare to fight me?"

Sun Xingzhe silently took out his AK47 and pointed it directly at Yuan Hong's head.

The powerful aura of the innate spirit treasure dispersed instantly, and the overwhelming pressure instantly changed Yuan Hong's face!

"This...is this an innate spiritual treasure?"

Sun Xingzhe said coldly: "Brother, what age are we in, who still uses ordinary weapons?

"Now we use guns in competitions!"

Although he was shocked by the AK47 in Sun Xingzhe's hand, Yuan Hong's expression quickly returned to normal and he said: "Isn't it just that I was lucky enough to get an innate spiritual treasure? What's so great about it."

"No one dares to get close to me within seven steps of my energy, water and fire stick. What can I do even if it is an innate spiritual treasure?"

Sun Xingzhe looked at Yuan Hong as if he were a fool, and said coldly: "Seven steps?"

"I told you, times have changed!"

"Don't be a water and fire stick like you. Within seven steps, my gun is fast, and beyond seven steps, my gun is fast and accurate!"

"I don't believe it, unless you compete with me!"

Yuan Hong looked at the strange weapon in Sun Xingzhe's hand with vigilance, and there was a rare hint of unconfidence in his voice.

Although he is considered well-informed, the weapon in Sun Xingzhe's hand is indeed the first time he has seen it...

Moreover, he had been killed once by the Immortal-Decapitating Flying Knife back then, so he knew the aura of the innate spiritual treasure very well!

Sun Xingzhe ignored his request and turned to look at Tang Sanzhan: "Master, what do you think of this person, whether to kill him or keep him alive?"

Yuan Hong also looked at Tang San's funeral.

After all, the other party is a Buddhist, and he can decide his life or death with just one sentence!

Whether Tang Sanzong nodded or not played a decisive role in Yuan Hong!

"The poor monk just said that you cannot become my disciple..."

Yuan Hong looked at Tang Sanzong in confusion, and tried his best to explain to himself: "Master, believe me, I am definitely better than this monkey next to you!"

"Give me a chance, and I will definitely be able to protect you and obtain the true scripture!"

Tang Sanzian shook his head, raised three fingers, and said: "First, although I am a Buddhist monk, I am not your master. Your master should be Monk Bianji."

"Secondly, with your current strength, let alone a little monkey, it would be difficult to compete with a little pig!"

"Third, if you want to gain freedom by joining the Buddhist scripture-seeking team, the poor monk can only tell you that you have made the wrong idea." (End of Chapter)
