Chapter 143 I Am Not Alone!

"Recruiting a husband? Dowry?"

The beautiful woman's words made Chen Xi look confused and at a loss.

But he still answered subconsciously.

"No, I still have to go to the West. The journey is difficult, where can I get married?"

"Mother... Donor, please don't make fun of me."

Chen Xi's words were incoherent, and even he didn't know why he blurted out and called mother.

When he realized this, he quickly changed his words and his face changed slightly.

What's going on?

Could he have made a mistake?

Could this guy also be a demon, with some means to influence the mind?

But...

His telepathy clearly didn't sense any malice, and his nose didn't smell any demonic aura...

Chen Xi was confused by the beautiful woman's mother.

And at this moment, the beautiful woman obviously heard this address.

She tapped Chen Xi's head with her finger in annoyance.

"You kid, now you want to call me mother?"

"Why do you want to go to the West?"

"Do you really want to become a monk and become a bald donkey?"

The beautiful woman spoke earnestly, like a mother worried about her son.

"Now, for a so-called journey to the West, you don't even recognize your mother, and you call me a donor."

"When your mother gave birth to you, she suffered a lot."

"When you were born, you cut open your mother's stomach, drank my blood, and ate my flesh."

"Now you want to become a monk and don't want your mother, doesn't this mean that you will leave your mother alone, guarding the empty garden, heartbroken?"

The beautiful woman wiped her tears with her sleeves when she spoke deeply.

Chen Xi opened his mouth, and felt that the beautiful woman in front of him must have been suffering from madness.

Why didn't he have any impression of what she said?

"Go west, go west, I don't know why you have to go west."

"To have food and clothes, or to be rich and prosperous?"

"In my opera garden, there are more than a thousand hectares of fertile land, herds of cattle and horses, countless pigs and sheep, and sixty or seventy pastures in the east, west, south, and north."

"At home, there is rice that will not be used for eight or nine years, silk that will not be worn for ten years, and gold and silver that will never be used in a lifetime."

"It is better than hiding spring in a brocade tent, and talking about two rows of gold hairpins."

"You are my only child now. If you are willing to stay and see me off to the end, you can enjoy the glory and wealth, but isn't it better than working hard in the west?"

The beautiful woman was earnest, but Chen Xi remained silent.

Everything around him seemed to have undergone some inexplicable changes.

Indistinctly, there seemed to be dense whispers surrounding him.

The sky became dim, dark, and deep...

Seeing this, the beautiful woman spoke again.

"Foolish child, if you continue to be so stubborn and willing to sink, I am afraid there will be no cure in the world."

"Listen to mother...let it go..."

"Stay in the opera house, get married, start a family, live and work in peace and contentment, isn't this your vision?"

Hearing this, Chen Xi looked at the beautiful woman in front of him and thought of Gao Laozhuang unconsciously...

Yes, this is his vision.

How much he wants to have a stable home...

When he was in Gao Laozhuang, he married the fake Miss Gao in the human skin paper, crying and laughing, didn't he want a home?

"The four daughters mother has adopted are all beautiful and have their own personalities."

"If the foolish child is willing to open his arms and become a head of the family, wearing silk and brocade, wouldn't it be more interesting than the clay bowl, black clothes, snow shoes and cloud hat?"

"Foolish child, you don't want to be a lonely person forever..."

The beautiful woman added fuel to the fire, speaking earnestly, almost pouring out her heart.

After these words came out, the silent Chen Xi finally made some changes.

However, his next words were unexpected.

"Donor, you... are obsessed."

"Donor's actions are no different from my advice to you just now, not to stick to the iron pestle and grind the needle."

Chen Xi shook his head and then laughed at himself.

The surroundings were gradually shrouded in deep darkness, and the dense whispers gradually became clear.

"Heh..."

"I used to be homeless and had to flee everywhere to survive, so I really want a home, a stable home."

"I dream of having a wife and children in this demon world, and not having to worry about being skinned, pulled out, cooked and fried all the time."

"But... this is just a fantasy."

"You can escape for a while, but not for a lifetime."

"In this demon world, there is no such thing as a paradise."

"No matter where I hide, the so-called destiny will find me and cause greater disasters."

"The so-called family is just a luxury. Now I can't even protect myself, how can I protect the people around me?"

"So..."

"As long as the journey to the west is not over, the sacred mountain is not reached, and the destiny is not fulfilled, there will be no place for me in this world."

Chen Xi looked directly at the beautiful woman, his expression did not show loneliness, but only numbness and indifference.

"I don't want to live in a muddle, nor do I want to see others die because of me, because of the so-called destiny..."

"So... I can't stop."

"I will continue to travel west and completely end the destiny..."

"No, we will continue to travel west and completely end this destiny..."

When Chen Xi finished speaking, darkness completely enveloped the place.

Footsteps sounded one after another.

The dark young man, the boss Lu, the scholar, the scarred bandit...

One by one, unknown people, even those without names, walked out of the deep darkness.

They are so densely packed that there are countless of them.

Without exception!

On the faces of each of them, there is a persistence, a persistence called obsession! Chen Xi opened his arms and turned his back to the living beings.

"I am not alone on this journey to the west."

Chen Xi shoulders the lives of all living beings, how can he give up easily.

All living beings are in various states, some cry and some laugh, some love and some hate, but the only thing that remains unchanged is the obsession.

Indistinctly, there is a familiar figure in the vast sea of ​​people behind Chen Xi.

That figure is not conspicuous, staring with two big eyes, jumping and jumping...

The deep darkness gradually submerged the beautiful woman.

The beautiful woman looked at Chen Xi now, her eyes full of pity.

Then a relieved smile appeared on her haggard face.

"The fool has grown up..."

"Since the fool doesn't want to wake up, let him sleep a little longer..."

As soon as the beautiful woman finished her words, she was completely submerged in the deep darkness.

In the deep darkness, only Chen Xi, who was protected by all living beings, remained.

He looked indifferent and remained silent for a long time.

After a long time, a murmur came out.

"Mother..."

...

"Mother, the holy monk seems to be asleep?"

Miss Mu looked at Chen Xi, who was lying on the table, snoring and calling mother from time to time, and her face suddenly looked a little strange.

Hongniang covered her mouth and chuckled, shaking her head repeatedly.

The holy monk is really a genius, he can fall asleep while looking at a painting...

You know, he is meeting his mother now.

And the holy monk not only fell asleep, but also slept soundly, and began to talk in his sleep, thinking about his mother...

At the same time, Bai Zhengdan looked at Chen Xi's current appearance, but felt a little distressed.

The gods and Buddhas who were so majestic in the past are now in such a crazy state that even the old mother cannot save them. It is really miserable.

And at this moment, the old mother in the painting made a sound.

The old mother's voice was ethereal, as if it came from the clouds.

"Okay, you go down..."

"The holy monk will be taken care of by Xiaobai for the time being. I will play music to recruit a husband tomorrow and then decide on a son-in-law..."

The old mother's voice was a little tired, as if she was exhausted.

The four girls heard this and immediately showed reluctance.

The old mother often wandered in spirits, and only appeared once a year on her birthday.

They still had a lot of things to say to the old mother...

But seeing that the old mother had no movement and the fairy painting returned to silence, they had to give up.

"Humph! You got it for free!"

"You must take good care of my husband and don't let him starve."

"Tomorrow, my husband will be mine."

Miss Mu raised her head and looked at Bai Zhengdan with a bad tone.

But she didn't say anything more, after all, this was her mother's instructions.

When Chen Xi was sleeping soundly, her mother had already explained to them about the husband recruitment.

According to her mother, the rules cannot be broken.

Since the reputation of recruiting husbands has been established, it is natural to follow the rules.

Whoever the holy monk falls into should also compete fairly.

This time, the husband recruitment is for the birthday to add joy.

And my mother likes to watch operas and listen to music the most, so this husband recruitment must be done according to this.

All the demons and talented men who come to the banquet to celebrate the birthday can participate in the husband recruitment, and the test is to sing music and perform operas.

Any demon and talented man who can defeat one of the four women with this can marry her.

If one of the four women has been undefeated and no one can marry, she can find the holy monk to marry.

The four women have no objection to this. They claim that they have a deep foundation and are far superior to those demons.

If it was just a battle of magic or fighting, they might be worried.

But if it was a competition of singing operas that they had learned from elementary school to adulthood, those demons would be no match for them even if they died of exhaustion.

So the four girls were all confident about this.

"Crazy woman! It's too early to brag now..."

"My sister and I are not as strong as you, but when it comes to singing operas, that's not necessarily the case."

"I hope you, crazy woman, go back and prepare well, and don't let some weird demons win."

"I don't want to call a pig, a dog, or something like that my brother-in-law~"

Qing Wudan put her hands on her waist, sharp-tongued, and merciless.

Miss Mu was angry when she heard this, and she snorted and left.

Hongniang smiled and shook her head, then said goodbye and left.

For a moment, only Bai Zhengdan and Qing Wudan were left in the hall.

"Qingmei, you should change your temper."

"We are sisters, you are just annoying when you say that..."

Bai Zhengdan helped Chen Xi up while lecturing Qing Wudan.

"Oh, my dear sister."

"In my opinion, you should change your temper."

"You are so weak, and you are always kind. Isn't that bullying?"

"That crazy woman is going to steal your husband, and you are still like this. It really makes me angry."

Qing Wudan stomped her feet in anger, then rolled her eyes and pushed Chen Xi from the side.

Bai Zhengdan didn't expect her sister to play this trick.

She was caught off guard and was immediately pressed to the ground by Chen Xi...

"Hmm..."
