On her third day after transmigrating to the world of Journey to the West, Jiang Ci was still getting used to rough hemp clothes and life without Wi-Fi.
She was taking care of an urgent personal matter in the outhouse when a sudden blaze of golden light appeared outside.
Two identical monks, dressed in glittering gold, appeared out of thin air at the outhouse door.
One held a golden alms bowl, the other a silver wooden fish. They opened with, "Benefactor Jiang Ci, congratulations. You've been chosen."
Jiang Ci froze, trousers still in hand. "...Could you two wait until I've come out?"
The monks exchanged a look and said in unison, "No. The secrets of Heaven cannot be revealed. If you miss the third quarter of the hour at noon today, you'll lose your chance."
Jiang Ci: "Then at least tell me what I'm supposed to choose!"
The monk with the golden alms bowl said, "Journey west to obtain the scriptures and protect Tang Sanzang."
Jiang Ci: "Me? Go get scriptures? But I'm a woman."
The monk with the silver wooden fish looked her up and down. "Buddha says women are good. Women are convenient."
Jiang Ci: "Convenient for what?"
The two monks once again answered in unison: "Convenient to kill."
Jiang Ci: "???"
It's a bit weird. The heroine can be resurrected, but a lot of the logic in it doesn't make sense. It's just weird to die for the sake of death🤔
Was it written in AI? Lots of meaningless repetitive passages. The emotional portrayal and evolution are also very stiff.
