Li Zheng, the overlord of the largest underground boxing ring in the 22nd century, nicknamed "Yam Luo", believed in only one sentence in his life: big fists are the rules.
An inexplicable time travel allowed him to possess the world of Journey to the West - not some awesome and coaxing Da Luo Jinxian, but a frail monk who could only recite Amitabha.
That's right, it's Tang Sanzang.
The system told him: Go to the West to learn scriptures and go through ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties. You will get rewards for each difficulty you pass, and you can return to the modern world only after passing all the difficulties. If you disobey the mission, the system will directly wipe out the host soul.
Li Zheng smiled - let me go and get Buddhist scriptures?
He held the dry smoke brought from Chang'an City in his mouth, glanced at the trembling mortal followers around him, and slapped away the tiger that rushed towards him.
"Damn it, what nonsense are you trying to learn from? I just think I'm going on a trip."
But he soon stopped laughing.
Because in this world, monsters really eat people. Gods and Buddhas are really insidious. The path to obtain the Buddhist scriptures is not as romantic and interesting as shown in the TV series, but a real path of death littered with bones and blood-soaked bluestones.
The black bear spirit in Black Wind Mountain does not eat vegetarian food, but eats people.
The inspiration king of Tongtian River, every year, drags the live children into the water in front of the whole village.
The Shituo Cave in Shituoling is filled with bones piled up into a mountain.
What's even more frightening is that the longer he stays in this world, the more Li Zheng feels - the things hidden under the smiles of those high-ranking gods and Buddhas are more penetrating than monsters.
