The First Happy King of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 197
In the haze, Xuanzang faintly felt that someone around him was shaking him, and opened his eyes slightly, only to feel a sense of dizziness, everything in front of him seemed to be shaking.

"Master, Master Xuanzang!" Before Xuanzang could figure out where he was, a woman's soft voice sounded beside him, and at the same time, he felt a shaking on his shoulder.

Gradually regaining consciousness, Xuanzang tried his best to control his body and sat up from the 'couch', turning his head to look behind him.

But at this glance, Xuanzang was taken aback for a moment, and there was indeed a woman behind him, who was as beautiful as a flower, with almond eyes, willow eyebrows, pink cheeks, and small cherry mouth, with a wreath on her head and a Light pink gauze, smooth skin is faintly visible underneath.

Xuanzang really deserved the name of an eminent monk, but at the beginning there was a flash of amazement in his eyes, and then he returned to his usual silence, uttered the Buddha's name and asked, "Who is the girl? Why did you appear in the poor monk's room?" "

However, what puzzled Xuanzang was that the woman frowned slightly after hearing what he said, and asked in confusion, "What is the mage talking about? What room?"

What?Xuanzang was stunned for a moment, he clearly remembered that last night he had a drink with Yu Zhining and Li Muyun, but because he didn't drink enough, he passed out and went back to his room to rest, how could this woman....

No, no, this is not right!Before Xuanzang could figure out what happened last night, he had already seen the surrounding environment clearly.

Where is the back house of the county government? It is clearly in the wilderness, and he did not sleep on any bed at all. Whether it is the feel of the hand or the scenery in the eyes, it can prove that the body under him Just a slate, a big slate.

And things are more than that simple, because the bursts of cold air from the surroundings indicate that the current season should be spring or autumn, not the dog days in the impression at all.

What's going on here?Could it be that he sleeps until he grows old?Or are you dreaming now?No, no, this shouldn't be a dream!But if everything in front of me is not a dream, then... Could it be that everything that happened yesterday in my memory was a dream?
"What is the mage thinking?" Just when Xuanzang was puzzled, the woman continued to ask when he saw that he was silent.

"What is this place? Why is the poor monk here?" Xuanzang asked without answering.

Seeing Xuanzang's nervous expression, the woman couldn't help covering her mouth with a slight smile, and then said: "There is no name for the barren mountains and wild mountains here. If the mage must know, you can call this place Guxiangyuan."

"Ancient Fragrance Garden?" Xuanzang searched in his memory, but he couldn't find any memory no matter what.

"The mage came here yesterday, probably because he was tired from walking, so he fell asleep on this stone slab." The woman continued to answer Xuanzang's questions, but she didn't seem to notice anything strange about him.

Seeing the seriousness of the woman's words, Xuanzang couldn't help becoming more confused about the things in his memory, and hesitantly asked tentatively, "Who is that girl? Why are you here?"

"Me? I'm just..." The woman suddenly stopped in the middle of speaking, and after thinking for a while, she said, "It's better not to know my identity as a mage."

"Why is this?" Xuanzang was eager to unravel the mystery in his heart, seeing that the woman didn't speak, he asked anxiously.

"My family is afraid of the mage!" said the woman.

"Afraid of me? Why are you afraid of me?" Xuanzang asked puzzled.

"Can the mage believe that there are monsters in this world?" the woman asked suddenly.

"This..." Xuanzang frowned.

To be honest, Xuanzang still believes in monsters. After all, he has believed in Buddhism for more than 20 years, and he knows a lot of monsters.

But what really puzzled him was why the woman said that, could it be that this woman... Thinking of this, Xuanzang couldn't help but shudder.

In the wilderness, a lone woman, and the cold air around, all these all speak for a fact.

"You, you are..."

"Yes, I am an apricot tree here. After thousands of years of practice, I can transform into a human form today. I don't want to become a mage just after incarnation. It is the greatest luck in this life." Seeing Xuanzang, the woman seemed to have guessed He no longer concealed his identity, and directly revealed his identity.

This time, Xuanzang was really not calm anymore, he jumped off the stone slab suddenly, took two steps away, looked at the woman with deep fear in his eyes, and kept chanting What.

After all, knowing a monster and seeing a monster are completely different things. It's like everyone knows that he will die, but when he knows that he will die tomorrow, he will immediately collapse.

So when Xuanzang knew that the woman was an apricot tree demon, he immediately recited the Diamond Sutra, intending to drive her away.

"Master, don't be nervous, Mage. I didn't mean to harm Mage. It's just a chance for Xiaoxian to take human form today and meet Mage again. That's why I showed up to meet Mage." The Diamond Sutra was like nothing, and there was no reaction at all, and he even wanted to comfort Xuanzang.

This time Xuanzang was startled again, unknowingly took a few steps back, and this retreat made him discover that the surrounding area was full of apricot blossoms at some time.

Monster, it seems that I really met a monster, otherwise, how could such a weird scene appear? Xuanzang looked at everything around him, and he was almost stunned.

But at this moment, the woman seemed to move again.

She just waved her plain hand on the stone slab where Xuanzang was lying on, and a cup of fragrant tea was poured out on the slate.

"Master, there is no malice in Xiaoxian's appearance. I just feel that I am destined to be with the Master. I specially offer a cup of tea and a song and dance to the Master." The woman has come to Xuanzang.

To drink or not to drink?If you don't drink it, will you offend the monster?If you drink it...will it be poisonous?

Various thoughts flashed through Xuanzang's mind, but he soon realized that if this woman wanted to kill him, she would not need to spend so much effort, after all, she is a monster who is not even afraid of the Diamond Sutra.

Thinking of this, Xuanzang slowly stretched out his hand, and carefully took the cup of hot tea from the woman's hand, no matter where the tea came from, he thanked him and put it to his mouth to take a sip.

The tea without adding any green onion, ginger and garlic is fragrant in the mouth. Although it is slightly bitter, it has a long aftertaste. It is not like the tea soup in the Tang Dynasty that is full of all kinds of ups and downs of life.

Good tea, really good tea, this kind of tea should be regarded as fairy tea, right?I just don't know if I will have the chance to drink it in the future!
