Idiom story

Pain of human nature in the four famous works: Although Tang Monk lacks ability, confused mind, weak will, and the demeanor and patience of eminent monks, he is the leader of the Buddhist Scripture team. There is only one reason: Tang monk is the second disciple of Buddha Tathagata, and he is promoted by high-ranking officials. There are three apprentices. Some are bodyguards, some are carrying luggage, and some are fasting. Tang Monk himself only needs to believe in horse riding rein. Even so, Tang Monk still felt that this "errand" was too hard. On the whole way, Monk Tang complained more than Bajie, and the word "bitter" never left his mouth. Although he was a strong seven foot man, Tang monk, like Lin Daiyu, had super developed lacrimal glands.
