There is a line on his spine called' Mrs. Bones'. " Tang priest also believed; Why can't you stop that pig from talking? "Master, he killed someone with his hand. I'm afraid you'll deliberately change your appearance and hide your tears when you read that message!" As expected, Tang Priest's ears were soft, and he believed him again, so he repeated his thoughts.
