Chapter 2205
The four travelers to the west came to the front of the small hut and saw an old woman at the door, using a windlass to turn a rope by the well to fetch water.
General Juan Lian immediately put down the luggage, ran over, and said repeatedly, "Old lady, I'll help you fetch water, I'll help you fetch water!"
When the old woman saw General Juan Lian running over, she was startled and took two steps back, an expression of disbelief flashing in her eyes, and she exclaimed, "A man?"
Being called out like that by her, General Juan Lian himself felt at a loss. He scanned his whole body with a pair of eyes and then puzzled, "What's wrong? Old lady?"
The old woman's abnormal reaction clearly made the travelers to the west feel incomparably surprised.
It was the old woman who recovered her composure first. She suddenly smiled and glanced at Marshal Tianpeng on the horse; his stomach was clearly abnormally large.
"Hehehe, I've lived for more than half a lifetime, and this is the second time I've seen a man."
"I didn't expect that in my lifetime, there would really be men who would come to this place."
The old woman looked up and laughed, then looked at Sun Wukong and the others one by one and said.
"Old lady, what do you mean by this? We don't quite understand."
Fahai stepped forward, doubt in his eyes.
"Nothing. You must have never heard of this place. This is the Xiliang Women's Kingdom; there are only women here, and there have never been any men."
"And looking at the master on the horse with the pig's head, he must have drunk the water of the Daughter River."
The old woman said with a smile.
"Old lady, you mean… that Xiliang Women's Kingdom ahead has not a single man, but is all women?"
Tang Sanzang also felt extremely puzzled and said with a frown.
"This master is truly handsome."
The old woman did not answer, just looked at Tang Sanzang, her eyes having a deeper meaning.
"Old lady is joking. We are all monks; we don't talk about physical appearance."
Tang Sanzang felt somewhat embarrassed being looked at by her; his fair face suddenly turned a bit red, and then he said.
Fahai stood to the side, his thick brows furrowed. He observed the old woman's gaze, and he could see the meaning within it.
With his intelligence, he quickly understood. Since a country had never seen a man, what would the situation be if a man appeared?
As for appearance, Tang Sanzang was indeed fair-skinned and tender; anyone who saw him would have a good impression, let alone someone from a Daughter Kingdom who had never seen a man.
"Aiya, I'm dying of thirst, I want to drink water!"
General Juan Lian didn't care; he ran directly to the old woman's side and began to turn the wooden windlass rapidly, then fetched a bucket of water from the well.
Then he looked at the water with his eyes fixed, picked up the water ladle by the well, scooped up a full ladle of water, and drank it gulp by gulp.
At this time, Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, Fahai, and the White Dragon Horse were all looking at the bucket of water that General Juan Lian had brought up.
"You all have come from afar; you must be thirsty. Quench your thirst first."
"As for this master on the horse, I see he should be pregnant. You had better settle down in my room first."
The old woman looked at the travelers to the west with kindness, scanned them, and said with a smile.
When she said this, Tang Sanzang and the others all stepped forward, preparing to get water to drink.
