Chapter 1837: The Little Boy Tied to the Tree

Passing the bare rocks of Pingding Mountain, ahead were lush trees. The group traveling west soon entered the forest.

Around noon, Sun Wukong stopped and suddenly said, "Such heavy monster aura!"

"Monkey brother, don't scare us. Why can't I feel anything at all?"

Marshal Tianpeng looked at Sun Wukong and said tremblingly.

Fahai remained silent; his cultivation also clearly felt the presence of the monster aura.

"Master, should we continue forward? How about letting the Senior Brother go ahead to scout the road?"

General Wujing looked at Tang Seng and said extremely earnestly.

"No need. If you encounter mountains, they are dangerous; if you encounter water, it is evil. If there really are monsters, there is no way to avoid them."

Tang Seng's gaze was firm as he looked ahead, speaking extremely calmly.

So the White Dragon Horse lifted its hooves and followed the mountain path, walking downward.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the foot of the mountain, filled with tall trees.

At this time, they heard human voices coming from the forest.

Listening closely, it was actually the voice of a child: "Help! Someone, save me!"

Tang Seng, upon hearing this, immediately swept his eyes over the group and said, "Quick, go ahead and see."

Sun Wukong sneered without speaking, and the White Dragon Horse lifted its hooves and galloped forward.

After walking for another stretch, they saw a little boy hanging from a tall tree ahead. He looked extremely cute, with two small braids tied with red ropes on his head, and only a red bellyband on his chest.

Tang Seng looked up, the sun somewhat dazzling, and shouted, "Whose child are you? Why were you tied up here?"

The little boy showed an anxious expression, looked down at the group, and said, "I came to play in the mountains alone, but I didn't expect to meet robbers, and they tied me up here."

Tang Seng, upon hearing this, felt sympathy arise instantly.

Sun Wukong and Fahai looked at each other; clearly, they had both smelled the monster aura and felt that this child was far from simple.

"Wukong, hurry up and go save him!"

Tang Seng looked at Sun Wukong and said with extreme worry.

Sun Wukong had long since grown accustomed to this. Tang Seng had already mistaken monsters for good people countless times, only to be captured by them in the end, requiring them to rescue him.

He just smiled to himself, not even bothering to explain, and placed his right hand on his brow, using his Fiery Eyes to see what kind of monster this was.

However, when he looked, he didn't see the monster's true form; it really was just the appearance of a child.

Now, Sun Wukong was in a bit of a dilemma. This was highly unreasonable. Monster aura constantly lingered nearby, if not this child, then who?

Yet he had no true form of a wolf, tiger, or leopard. Even with the Fiery Eyes, it was just the appearance of a child.

However, this child kept saying he came to play in the mountains and was tied to a tree by robbers. Within a ten-mile radius, there were no households. Would a little child run here to play?

The key was that Tang Seng believed this.

"Fine, since you all can't see through it, I want to see what kind of tricks you, little monster, are using."

Sun Wukong thought to himself, so he leaped up, broke the rope directly, and saved the little boy.

"Listen, I don't care where you came from. With me here, don't think your schemes will succeed."

During the descent, Sun Wukong looked at the child and said coldly.

"You monkey, what are you talking about?"

The little child looked simple and innocent, appearing very innocent.

Just as Sun Wukong landed, the little child suddenly screamed and rolled from Sun Wukong's hands to the ground: "Ouch, be gentle, you hurt me!" ===== CHAPTER 1839 =====
