One Punch Tang Monk

Chapter 102 The Great Wizard

"It looks a bit like it...but I've only heard a little legend." Tang Sanzang put the ancient book aside, not knowing what expression to use for a while.

If Sha Wujing really looked like this, Tang Sanzang felt that he would not accept such an apprentice even if he was killed. This appearance is too permeable. As a face control... No, it is to reduce the sense of existence of the learning team. The selection of each member cannot be vague.

At that moment, Tang Sanzang had already decided to exclude this monster from the scripture learning team. Isn't there Luoxi now, and the four apprentices have gathered together.

Yes, that's it.

Wang Kuan nodded, thought for a while and then said: "Although the monsters in the Liusha River are ferocious, there are also some interesting legends. When I was young, I heard the old captain say that there is a mermaid in the Liusha River. On the night of the circle, fishermen on the river may hear her singing."

"Mermaid?" Tang Sanzang's eyelids twitched. He didn't expect there to be such a strange species in the Liusha River. "Could it be that the fishermen who heard the mermaid's singing were all eaten?"

"How come, mermaids are not monsters. The old captain said that as long as there are mermaids singing at night, you can sleep well. There will definitely be no monsters that night." Wang Kuan shook his head with a smile, his old face There was a hint of longing on his face, "It's a pity that not everyone can hear the mermaid's singing. I have been wandering in the quicksand river for decades, but I have never heard it."

"Then have you ever seen what a mermaid looks like?" Tang Sanzang asked curiously.

"No, no one has ever seen the appearance of a mermaid, but I have a painting that has been handed down from the past. The ancestors who drew this picture also said that it was just his imaginary work, which is not countable." Wang Kuan said that This ancient book turned a page and handed it to Tang Sanzang again.

"Your ancestor's imagination... is really rich." Tang Sanzang looked at the picture of a mermaid with big wavy hair, a plump bust, wearing only a bikini, and a big red fishtail underneath, and sighed sincerely. One sentence.

"Yeah, my ancestor, Wang Hai, is also quite legendary, he just saw the Sea Demon King with his own eyes, and I heard that he disappeared on the Liusha River for three years, and everyone thought he was dead.

Unexpectedly, when I came back later, I didn’t talk about anything, and I brought back a few big pearls, sold them in the city, exchanged them for money, and immediately built more than a dozen big yards, and took several wives. My courtyard is what he left behind. "Wang Kuan smiled, "They all said that he was lucky and was hired by the mermaid to be a man for three years. "

"Master, the elders are here." A servant trotted in and said.

"Let them come in." Wang Kuan nodded, looked at Tang Sanzang again and said, "Crossing the river is a major event. My Wangjia Town has not carried people across the river for decades, so we need to discuss it before making a decision." After a while, the tone is also a lot more gentle.

"Well, I understand." Tang Sanzang nodded, these people are just mortals, and they can't be too cautious when dealing with monsters who are life-or-death.

Seven or eight old men came into the living room, their faces were all black and red. They were probably good at fishing when they were young. They sat down on the chairs under Wang Kuan's call and looked at Tang Sanzang first.

Tang Sanzang also looked at this group of so-called elders, most of them were wearing linen jackets, and there was a dagger without a sheath hanging around their waists, just swinging casually, which made him a little worried that he might accidentally cut his crotch that thing.

"The great wizard hasn't arrived yet, so wait a little longer." Wang Kuan said in a deep voice, and everyone nodded, all of them had no objections and whispered.

Zhu Tianpeng also wandered back to the living room, sat down next to Tang Sanzang, and whispered in Tang Sanzang's ear: "Master, why don't we build a boat by ourselves, as long as we have blueprints, I will make one for you in one night." There is no need to look at the faces of these little old men when a big ship comes."

"It's okay, let's listen to what they say. Anyway, we have a lot of gold on us, and it's useless to keep it." Tang Sanzang shook his head slightly. Money and things come and go quickly. Anyway, there is never a lack of love in this world. Landlords who do bad things, if they have no money, they will go to rob... I want to emphasize that it is robbing the rich and helping the poor.

"The great wizard is here." The servant from before said quickly as he walked into the door.

Wang Kuan and the old men in the room quickly stood up and walked out quickly, their faces full of reverence.

Tang Sanzang and Zhu Tianpeng sat in their chairs without moving, and turned their heads to look at them.

A hunchbacked old man in a black and red robe, with all kinds of silverware hanging on his body, and a crutch made of ingots in his hand, was supported by a sixteen or seventeen-year-old youth in green shirts and walked into the door.

The hunchbacked old man was much fairer than the old man in the house, but the wrinkles on his face were wrinkled together like old tree bark, and the backs of his hands that were as dry as claws were covered with age spots, and he was a little trembling when he walked.

But as soon as he entered the door, he raised his eyes to look at Tang Sanzang, a pair of black and deep eyes were as sharp as a goshawk, as if he could see through everything.

Tang Sanzang picked up the tea bowl and took a sip unhurriedly. If only such an old man who knew sorcery could scare him off, he would be in vain meeting so many officials of the Tang Dynasty. Senior official, which one is not a human being, let alone his grandpa and father in name, they are all human beings.

"The Great Wizard." "The Great Wizard..."

The old men greeted each other respectfully, with their heads bowed, looking a little reserved.

"Sit down." The hunchbacked old man known as the Great Wizard looked away in surprise, and was helped by the young man to sit on the main seat, raised his hands and said, his voice a little hoarse.

Standing aside, the young man was also wearing a red and black toga, but he had no silverware on his body. He looked quite handsome, and looked at Tang Sanzang and Zhu Tianpeng curiously.

All the old men sat down again, Wang Kuan explained in detail about Tang Sanzang's master and apprentice wanting to cross the river, and the price was negotiable, and then he waited for the great wizard to speak.

It's a discussion, but it's actually more like inviting a great wizard to make a decision, but the rest of the old men also acted as if it was a matter of course, so Tang Sanzang naturally didn't talk too much.

"Little master, this crossing of the river is to do business with one's life. There are countless monsters in the Liusand River for eight hundred miles. Most of them will never come back after this trip. How much gold do you plan to buy?" The great wizard's hands were frayed. Liang rubbed his cane lightly, staring into Tang Sanzang's eyes and asked.

"50 taels." Tang Sanzang didn't talk nonsense, he untied the small package beside him and put it on the table, which contained five ingots and ten taels of gold.

The shining golden light brightened the eyes of everyone in the room. Looking at the gold on the package, their breathing became heavy.

Fifty taels of gold is not a small amount, enough to buy half of Wangjia Town, but Tang Sanzang took it out without thinking.

"Not enough." The great wizard glanced at Jin Zi, then quickly looked away, looked at Tang Sanzang and shook his head slightly.

"How much do you want?" Tang Sanzang asked with a smile, and the lion opened his mouth as he expected.

"This number." The great wizard stretched out a finger on his crutch.
