Super Hero Monk: Hormones Journey to the West

Chapter 71 It’s a monster!
More than a month later.

In the yellow grove, there were constant sounds of collision and groans.

Two monks in navy robes were like sandbags, hanging from a tree branch with nylon ropes, shaking and trembling with Tang Xuanci's combination punches.

They were the followers who followed Tang Xuanci from Chang'an to obtain Buddhist scriptures.

One is called Ku Bi and the other is called Ku Ya.

On the surface, they all called Tang Xuanci "Master", but in fact, they not only led the route to the west, but also supervised his daily actions and recorded them in detail, more seriously than making attendance sheets and KPIs.

These will serve as evidence of whether Tang Xuanci has fulfilled the terms of the agreement.

If he breaches the contract without reason, the conditions promised to him by the society will be discounted accordingly.

The good news is that Ku Bi and Ku Ya's cultivation is only at the grandmaster level. Perhaps Guanyin was afraid that the "source code" would be leaked, so she did not teach them the spells that she taught Li Shimin.

The bad news is that these two people are the kind of colleagues that make old-timers in the workplace feel the most disgusted. They are extremely hardworking and have a firm look in their eyes, so they can join the party.

"Om Amitabha Aisde Humshe..."

Ku Bi and Ku Ya were being beaten while chanting scriptures, as if using their spiritual power to dissolve the physical pain.

Tang Xuanci made a series of hooks, straight hooks, straight sweeping kicks, sweeping kicks, straight kicks and a dragon's tail swing.

"boom!"

Ku Bi was kicked and hit against the tree trunk, and then swung like a swing.

Tang Xuanci stopped angrily, grabbed their notebooks and cursed:

"You guys even remember my shit~
"What do you mean by 'intentionally' having diarrhea for an hour? I'm having diarrhea because I'm not used to the local climate?
"Is Tathagata your father, or is Guanyin your mother? I'll remember your mother's head!"

He tore the little notebook into pieces, smashed it hard on Kuya's face, and then sat down in front of the fire angrily to barbecue.

"Amitabha~
"Master, even if you tear up the paper, we will write down the contents one by one and report it truthfully in the future.

"We have already been delayed in this woods for two days. We should hurry on."

Ku Bi suddenly spoke to persuade, his emotions still very stable.

Tang Xuanci was too lazy to speak, so he threw a stone over and said to the beaker secretly:

"No, we can't keep these two idiots here. We might as well just bury them here. With them around, there's no way I can reasonably get lost or delay time."

Beaker Road:
“Now is not the time to take action.

“If nothing unexpected happens, even if these two people disappear completely, the Buddhist sect will know that it must be you who did it.

“They are likely to continue to tighten restrictions, and even use this as an excuse to test you further by taking hostages.

“So, it’s best to wait until something unexpected happens, such as an attack from the Dao Sect, and then take action.

"Shift the conflict to the outside world or their enemies, and try to make them numb and careless towards you."

Tang Xuanci frowned and said:

"But the route I'm taking now is clearly well-planned and very safe. If I don't kill them, I probably won't encounter any accidents or be eaten by any monsters." Beaker said:
“It is recommended to wait a little longer.

“Starting from Chang’an, the further you go towards Xiniuhezhou, the sparser the population becomes.

"If we continue westward, we will have to cross a dangerous mountain range, or we will have to take a long detour.

“Looking at the map, we’re about to enter the Shuangcha Ridge area, and the Bitter Cliff and the Bitter Cliff clearly want to go straight over it.

"And in Lei Yizi's library, there's a book called 'Xiang Di Ji', which clearly mentions that there are monsters in Shuangcha Ridge that eat people and rob goods."

Two balls of fire came out of his nostrils. Tang Xuanci said nothing more. He picked up the roasted wild boar on the campfire and started to chew it together with the bitter and astringent ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum in the package.

In fact, they had walked through terrain like Shuangchaling several times before, but nothing happened. They had never seen any animals, let alone monsters.

This is obviously because the Buddhists had made arrangements in advance and planned the route.

But~

Along the way, he discovered that Buddhism also had the common problem of bloated organization as Beaker said.

Problems such as chaotic management, inefficient operation, internal contradictions and conflicts of interest are inevitable.

Take the several large temples we visited along the way as an example. The attitude of the abbots there towards work is completely different from that of the two model workers, Ku Bi and Ku Ya. Most of them just want to avoid mistakes and don't let problems occur in their own territory.

Therefore, in order to prevent Tang Xuanci from causing trouble, they were very willing to make some compromises and give him more benefits.

As for whether the entire journey to the West could be completed, and whether the Buddhist community as a whole was good or bad, most of the little Karamis actually didn't care at all from the bottom of their hearts.

Therefore, Shaobei advised Xuanci not to be impatient and to wait patiently. Even if the Taoist sect was not strong enough, the people in charge of specific affairs in the Buddhist community would most likely make mistakes and reveal some flaws.

After eating and drinking his fill and smoking a cigarette, Tang Xuanci let Ku Bi and Ku Ya go, asked them to pack up the cooking utensils, and each lead two pack horses to continue their journey.

Kuya held a map in his hand and led the way while comparing the terrain.

From noon to dusk, they were completely deep in the mountains and had to push through the grass to find their way. The journey was extremely difficult and rugged.

As the saying goes: If you keep thinking about it, there will be a response.

Suddenly, Tang Xuanci's nose, which crushed the hunting dog, smelled a very faint scent coming from the bushes on the high cliff in front.

The smell is a bit like tiger body odor, but it is obviously different from that of ordinary tigers.

He listened as hard as he could, but heard nothing unusual.

But as he gradually approached the bush, his peripheral vision caught a glimpse of the leaves of the bush shaking slightly.

Then the strange smell faded and disappeared.

“It’s a monster!
“This is definitely a real monster!
"How can ordinary animals have such advanced hiding skills? Those two idiots in front of us didn't even notice it."

Tang Xuanci was extremely excited, but also a little nervous.

It was because he was not sure whether the monster was preparing to ambush, or whether the Buddhists had already come here and made a threat, and the monsters here recognized him and his group and did not dare to provoke them.
