Chapter 1178: Too Much
It was Journey to the West!
While it was a good book, Zhang Wei didn’t remember it being such a tearjerker.
“I got to the part where Sun Wokong struck down the White Bone Spirit thrice...” Zhou Jing said.
“Oh, that part!” Zhang Wei thought back to the story and attempted to empathize with her. “Sanzang was obstinate! Sun Wokong was wronged! When I watched that part on the television as a kid, I cried from frustration...”
“That’s not it.” Zhou JIng sniffed. “The White Bone Spirit was so pitiful. It only wanted to eat Sanzang’s flesh. What’s so wrong with that? It tried so hard, yet Wokong exposed it every time. I feel so sorry for it...”
Zhang Wei felt like the confused math lady trying to understand the complicated formulas crammed into his head.
This is a test, Zhang Wei!
Don’t lose! You must not lose!
“Ahem!” Zhang Wei tried his best to put himself in the death monster’s unusual mindset.
“That’s right. It started out as a skeleton. After years of collecting spiritual power in nature and essence from the sun and moon, it finally became a spirit and climbed to the top of the pecking order. It must have been an arduous process! Yet it died to Sun Wukong’s staff just because it wanted to eat Sanzang. How cruel! How absurd! Humans can eat animals. Why can’t spirits eat humans?”
“Yeah.” Zhou Jing was on the verge of tears again. “It’s so...so tragic!”
