Wishing everyone a happy Qixi Festival, single dogs don't cry, stand up and fight!

Also, I'm desperately seeking recommendations!

The night was deep, and the air was filled with the strong scent of incense. The entire "Guanyin Chan Temple" had quieted down, and the monks, both young and old, had fallen asleep.

Tang Sen was still awake. In the guest room, he had just finished writing a "gun manuscript," a review of a certain smartphone. He had never used this phone, but he had written a bunch of good things about it based on the information provided by the manufacturer, then uploaded it to a portal website and received 150 yuan for the manuscript.

Seeing that it was not yet midnight, Tang Sen decided to help Sun Wukong quickly finish altering the leopard print dress. He took out his needle and thread, grabbed the dress, and began to carefully sew under the lamp. He was alone in the room, while Sun Wukong and Bai Long were staying in the adjacent guest room.

From a distance, the sounds of mahjong and card games drifted over, probably from another group of tourists who were causing a commotion. Tang Sen couldn't help but find it amusing that these people were playing mahjong and card games in a temple, not caring about disturbing the monks' meditation.

Time passed slowly, and Tang Sen finished the last two stitches. He unfolded the dress to look at it... the originally tight-fitting leopard print dress, which accentuated curves, had been altered into a straight tube. How could it still be sexy or alluring? He couldn't help but chuckle bitterly, "What a mess... I told you to buy children's clothes."

Before he could finish his sentence, the window was suddenly pushed open, and a black shadow flashed by. A furry bear paw reached out.

Tang Sen was startled. A monster? He quickly focused and saw that it was the plush toy bear monster from earlier! It was about 1.3 meters tall, a bit small for a human but quite large for a toy, a large plush bear. Jumping in from the window, it looked quite imposing.

Tang Sen didn't know the monster's strength, so he didn't dare to fight it head-on. He quickly dodged backward, avoiding the bear's paw.

Strangely, the bear's paw didn't follow Tang Sen's movement but instead swung horizontally, grabbing the leopard print dress in Tang Sen's hand. Tang Sen was so focused on protecting himself that he didn't realize the bear was after the dress. In a moment, the dress was dragged away, and the plush bear laughed triumphantly, "Ah, I got the dress, hahaha..."

The laughter suddenly stopped because, after dodging the bear's paw, Tang Sen instinctively kicked back.

The kick hit the plush bear's chest. Tang Sen felt like he was kicking a pile of soft cotton. The plush bear didn't seem to be hurt at all, laughed loudly, and used the force of the kick to fly backward, through the window, and disappeared into the night.

"Damn!" Tang Sen was drenched in sweat. Is this for real? Attacked by a monster in the middle of the night, and it only took my dress and ran? Is this monster too unreliable? Shouldn't it eat or kill people to be a proper monster?

"Sun Wukong, come quickly! There's a monster." Tang Sen shouted to the next room and then jumped out of the window.

In the moonlight, the plush bear had already climbed onto the roof. No, it didn't climb up by itself. With its short legs and arms, it didn't seem capable of climbing walls. It must have been kicked up by Tang Sen's kick.

The plush bear stood under the bright moon, laughed loudly a few times, and then jumped down from the other side of the roof.

Tang Sen couldn't fly or teleport, so he couldn't follow. He heard two light sounds behind him, and Sun Wukong and Bai Long landed beside him. Sun Wukong asked urgently, "Where's the monster?"

"It ran that way," Tang Sen said. "It's the plush toy bear monster from earlier. It took the leopard print dress I just altered."

Sun Wukong was furious, "What? She... she actually took my dress? She's asking for it. Let me go and beat her into a pulp."

Tang Sen sweat-dropped, "Hey... it's not made of meat, just soft stuffing. You can't beat it into a pulp."

Sun Wukong was also sweating, "Damn, things have changed so much in 500 years. There are even new types of monsters in the new era."

"Hey, now's not the time to complain. Aren't you going to chase her?"

Sun Wukong climbed onto a cloud and chased after the black bear. The bear was slow, so she was quickly caught in another courtyard. Just as she was about to pull out the golden cudgel from her ear, the "Aotian Wudi Record" flashed in her mind, and she couldn't pull it out. She lunged at the bear with her bare hands, "Give me back my dress."

The plush bear looked up and saw the real deal. She quickly put the dress down and raised her bear paws to block Sun Wukong's punch. The punch hit the bear's paw, and with a loud thud, the plush bear was sent flying, hitting the wall and bouncing back. It looked like she was seriously injured, but she got up as if nothing had happened, showing great resilience.

Sun Wukong was surprised. "I caused a great commotion in heaven 500 years ago. How can a little monster withstand my punch?"

She didn't know that the bear was secretly suffering: "A person's name, a tree's shadow. Sun Wukong is indeed powerful. One punch made my blood and qi surge, making me very uncomfortable. Wait, that's not right. I'm a plush toy, I don't have blood or qi. Ha, it must be psychological. I don't need to fear her."

Sun Wukong shouted, "Give me back the dress, and I'll spare your life."

The plush bear shouted, "I have an important use for this dress. I can't give it back."

Sun Wukong was furious, "Damn it, no matter what you need it for, it's my dress. Why should I give it to you?" She swung another punch.

The bear raised her paw to block it. With a dull thud, the plush bear was hit again and flew into the wall, but her soft body didn't hurt. She bounced back and stood steadily.

Sun Wukong was furious and pounced, hitting the bear with a flurry of punches and kicks. The bear fought back desperately, and they exchanged blows for over ten rounds, evenly matched.

At this moment, Bai Long helped Tang Sen climb over the wall and into the courtyard. Seeing Sun Wukong and the plush bear fighting intensely, they didn't interfere and stood aside to watch.

Tang Sen was very interested in the fight. To improve his future combat skills, he paid close attention to the battle. He saw a little girl and a plush toy bear fighting fiercely, a beautiful but bizarre scene. He had to force himself to watch.

Sun Wukong was agile and skilled, her punches and kicks powerful. In a moment, she hit the plush bear several times.

The bear was slow and clumsy, clearly not a match for Sun Wukong, but she was very resilient. No matter how hard Sun Wukong hit her, she didn't seem to be going down.

"Strange, you're really tough," Sun Wukong was surprised. "Why don't you fall?"

The plush bear stubbornly said, "You can't beat me. Give me the dress for a few days, and I'll return it. If you don't, I'll stand here and let you hit me until you're tired. You can't do anything to me."

Sun Wukong was furious, "Don't be so arrogant. I'll flatten you and see if you still talk big." She flew up and kicked the bear's stomach, flattening it. But the bear didn't seem injured, and with a puff, her stomach returned to normal. She laughed, "You'll never hurt me!"

Sun Wukong was furious and kicked the bear's face, distorting it and flattening her head. But with a puff, her face returned to normal.

Sun Wukong was furious, hitting and kicking, but the bear wouldn't fall.

At this point, Tang Sen had figured out the key. He shouted, "Sun Wukong, this thing is just a plush toy. It has no blood or flesh, just filled with cotton. It's elastic, so hitting it won't work. You need to use something else."

Sun Wukong was sweating, "What should I use?"

Tang Sen took out a one-yuan disposable lighter from his pocket and threw it to Sun Wukong, "Use this."

The bear's face changed dramatically when she saw the lighter. She looked at Tang Sen fearfully, full of terror... The Sun Wukong who caused a great commotion in heaven 500 years ago wasn't scary. She was clearly stupid and only knew brute force. But this man, who seemed to have no combat skills, was a formidable opponent. He had discovered her weakness in a short time. Not good, I need to escape quickly. If I get burned, I'm finished.

The bear was trembling in fear when she saw Sun Wukong examining the lighter from all angles, patting her head, "What is this thing?"

"Are you kidding me?" The bear, Bai Long, and Tang Sen almost fell over.
