Chapter 408 Gao Cuilan's Study
Gao Cuilan hurried back home and found Zhang Jianjun, who looked handsome and had an extraordinary temperament. Gao Cuilan's face suddenly turned red and her heart beat faster, but she still tried to remain reserved, lowered her head and said nothing, only occasionally showing a shy smile.
Mrs. Gao looked at her daughter's reaction and understood about 70% of what was going on.
She looked at Zhang Jianjun carefully and felt that this young man was not only handsome, but also well-mannered, giving people a sense of stability and reliability.
If we can recruit such a person to be the son-in-law of the Gao family, then the Gao family will really be prosperous! Thinking of this, Mrs. Gao couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile on her face.
Old Lady Gao said to Gao Cuilan with a grateful look on her face: "Cuilan, this is your lifesaver, he came from the distant Tang Dynasty!" Gao Cuilan nodded slightly, walked lightly with lotus-like steps, slowly walked to Zhang Jianjun, bowed gracefully, and said softly: "Cuilan will never be able to repay your kindness in this lifetime. If there is an afterlife, I am willing to work like a cow or a horse for you to repay your kindness." Zhang Jianjun hurriedly returned the greeting and said with a smile: "Don't be so polite, I didn't save people for rewards. Besides, I still have to continue my journey to the west to obtain scriptures, and my apprentice Sun Wukong has not returned yet."
"It turns out to be a holy monk!" Gao Cuilan was secretly delighted. She never thought that her lifesaver was actually one of the famous Tang Monk and his disciples. She couldn't help but feel more respect and curiosity for Zhang Jianjun.
"The holy monk has a long journey to the West, and there must be many dangers along the way. Although Cuilan is a woman, she also knows some martial arts. I am willing to go with the holy monk so that I can take care of her." Gao Cuilan looked at Zhang Jianjun firmly, with courage and determination flashing in her eyes.
Zhang Jianjun hesitated for a moment. He knew the danger of this trip, but seeing Gao Cuilan's determination, he couldn't help but be moved. He nodded and said, "Well, since the girl has this intention, let's go together. But don't act rashly on the road, and follow my instructions."
Gao Cuilan was very happy to hear this. She went back to her boudoir and started packing her things.
At this time, Sun Wukong was fighting with Zhu Bajie in Cuiyun Mountain. The fool was seen wielding the nine-toothed rake and fighting with the golden hoop stick, but he was no match for Sun Wukong. Bajie gradually became powerless and could not resist Wukong's attack, and he secretly complained in his heart.
Suddenly, Bajie had an idea and yelled, "You damned Bi Ma Wen, how dare you ruin my good deeds!"
Upon hearing this, Wukong was immediately enraged and responded with gnashing teeth: "How dare you, a jerk, to be a demon in this lower world!"
Bajie was frightened by Wukong's momentum and quickly explained: "Don't be angry, Great Sage. I am also forced to do this. I was originally the Marshal of the Heavenly Peng, but because I flirted with Chang'e, I was demoted to the mortal world and was reborn as a pig. Now I can only occupy the mountain as a king and make a living."
After hearing this, Wukong was still furious: "Humph, even so, you shouldn't have taken a commoner girl by force and even wanted to marry her."
Bajie quickly pleaded, "Great Sage, please calm down. I know I was wrong. If you let me go, I promise not to harass Miss Gao again and I will practice well in the future."
Seeing Bajie's sincere attitude, Wukong agreed to let him go. Bajie was grateful and thanked him repeatedly. Finally, Wukong warned Bajie not to do evil again, otherwise he would not let him go easily. Bajie nodded and said he would definitely change his ways.
Then Sun Wukong returned to Gao's house and told them what had happened.
The whole family was very happy.
I also heard that Gao Cuilan was going to join us on the journey west.
So I stayed at Gao's house for a few more nights.
That night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and everything was silent. Gao Cuilan shyly invited Zhang Jianjun to her boudoir for a chat, and Zhang Jianjun happily went. When he stepped into the door, a faint fragrance hit him, making him intoxicated. In the room, the candlelight flickered, emitting a warm and soft light.
Gao Cuilan sat on the bed, her graceful figure set off by her exquisite dress, beautiful and charming. Her eyes sparkled with bright light, as dazzling as stars; her white teeth were as white as snow, emitting a charming luster. Her willow-shaped eyebrows were slightly raised, outlining a touch of charming style.
Zhang Jianjun stood quietly at the door, attracted by the beautiful scenery in front of him. Gao Cuilan's beauty made his heart beat fast, as if time had stopped flowing. She smiled and waved at him, motioning him to come over and sit down. Zhang Jianjun slowly walked to her side, sat on the chair, and looked at her.
Gao Cuilan said softly, "Brother Zhang, I called you here tonight because I have something to tell you. I have heard about the journey to the west to seek Buddhist scriptures since I was a child, and I have always been yearning for it. It is a great honor to be able to travel with you this time. However, I know that the journey is difficult and I am afraid that I will become a burden to you." Zhang Jianjun shook his head hurriedly, "Miss Gao, why are you so modest? Your courage and determination are admirable. If you accompany me, I believe this journey will add a lot of fun." Gao Cuilan nodded slightly, "Thank you for your encouragement, Brother Zhang. However, I have a small request. On the way to the west, can I have the opportunity to learn martial arts so that I can better protect myself and my companions?" Zhang Jianjun's eyes flashed with admiration, "Of course. I will try my best to teach you some self-defense skills." The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere became more harmonious. In this quiet night, their hearts gradually approached, and they looked forward to the future journey together.
In order to allow Gao Cuilan to travel west, Zhang Jianjun specially asked Sun Wukong to teach Gao Cuilan some self-defense skills.
Sun Wukong readily agreed to Zhang Jianjun's request and decided to personally teach Gao Cuilan the art of self-defense. In the following days, Sun Wukong carefully guided Gao Cuilan and taught her how to use her own strength and skills to defend against enemy attacks.
Gao Cuilan studied very hard, trying to master every move and technique. Sun Wukong also shared his experience and insights without reservation, helping her to continuously improve her strength.
After a period of training, Gao Cuilan gradually became proficient. Her agility and flexible moves impressed everyone.
That night, Gao Cuilan met Zhang Jianjun alone. She was dressed elegantly and first practiced the kung fu she had learned. Her posture was light and her movements were smooth and natural. Every move was full of power and beauty. Zhang Jianjun watched her performance and nodded and praised her: "You learn kung fu very quickly!"
Hearing Zhang Jianjun's praise, Gao Cuilan smiled shyly and said softly, "Thanks to Sun Wukong, he taught me well!" She remembered Sun Wukong's careful guidance when he taught her martial arts, and her heart was filled with gratitude. At the same time, she was also proud that she could master these skills so quickly.
