Journey to the West: Begins with Tiger Vanguard

Chapter 58: Jindou Mountain changes its owner!
Let's move forward a few days.

It is said that ever since the big blue ox and the one-horned rhinoceros sneaked out from the Thirty-three Heavens of Separation and Sorrow and the Tushita Palace, it jumped down from the sea of ​​clouds without caring about anything and flew straight towards the human world below. It was so excited.

How long has he been stuck in Tushita Palace?

It's been many years since my master would ride him out for a ride.

The master is not at home this time, and I see that the boy has fallen into a deep sleep.

This time, the One-horned Rhinoceros King can go down to the mortal world and have some fun.

One day in the sky, one year in the ground.

Every time my master is away from home, he would be away for at least three to five days, and at most ten years, or even dozens of years. As long as that kid can sleep a little longer, I can roam freely in the lower world for dozens or even hundreds of years. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

"Will that kid sleep more?"

"Ok?"

Suddenly remembered this.

Galloping among the clouds of the lower world.

The one-horned siren with a head shaped like an ox but with a single horn on its forehead suddenly stopped and touched his chin with his hand, thinking quickly: "It has only been ten days since the last time the master left home. It will definitely take a long time for the master to come back, but the kid may not be able to sleep that long. Once he wakes up, he will tell the master right away."

Thinking of this.

After the one-horned rhinoceros' eyes rolled quickly, it turned around decisively and headed straight towards the Thirty-Three Layers of Lihentian Heaven from which it came.

"Why not let the boy sleep longer? As long as he stays asleep, my cattle pen is remote and I don't have to worry about other boys going there. This way I can stay in the lower world longer."

"Well, I'm really smart, let's do it."

When the clever one-horned rhinoceros returned to the gate of the Thirty-three-layer Tushita Palace, he found that it was still quiet.

It will be the same when you leave as when you come back.

Looking around, the one-horned rhinoceros that walked out of the cloud quickly turned into a big blue bull with a one horn on its head. It opened the door of the Tushita Palace and walked in carefully.

He walked through the hall, around the pavilion, easily avoiding other boys, and went to a corner of the mansion, next to the cowshed, looking at the cowherd boy who was sleeping soundly.

The unicorn grinned, slowed down his pace and walked forward. When he got in front of the other person, he opened his mouth and spit a breath onto his face.

It looked like the other person was going to sleep till the end of time.

The unicorn chuckled, then turned around and walked out, wagging its tail.

Just got out of the cowshed.

The one-horned rhinoceros suddenly thought, what if he encounters some powerful monster when he goes down to the mortal world this time?
then.

His eyes rolled and he immediately walked towards the equipment room in the mansion, wagging his tail.

This instrument room is different from the alchemy room. The master doesn't know how often he comes here, and there is no boy guarding it.

But he, Dujiaosi, knew that this equipment room was much more interesting than the alchemy room.

He slowed down his pace and walked to the door of the equipment room.

Then, the unicorn poked its head out and saw several dazzling lights of different colors flying back and forth in the spacious room, chasing each other happily.

At this time.

The unicorn suddenly appeared at the door of the equipment room.

Then, all you see are the colorful lights flying in the air, which suddenly freeze in mid-air, and then quickly fly back to their positions on the shelves one by one. After that, the dazzling lights fade away, revealing their original forms, which are objects of different shapes and appearances.

The only thing they have in common is that they are surrounded by a strong halo, and are obviously rare and precious treasures.

"hey-hey."

Looking at the frightened treasures, the one-horned rhinoceros grinned, his eyes swept across the various treasures on the shelves, and soon stopped on a golden bracelet that was shining with golden light.

Then, the unicorn raised its horn, and the golden bracelet immediately flew over and was put on the huge horn on his forehead.

then.

The unicorn then swung its tail and walked out of the weapon room, carefully walking towards the gate of the mansion.

Not long after.

A huge head popped out from in front of the heavy gate of Tushita Palace again, looked around, and seeing that there was nothing unusual, it walked out with its tail wagging.

Close the door carefully.

The unicorn then took a step into the thick clouds ahead and disappeared.

All the way down to the thirty-three heavens.

Soon, a new problem arose in front of the one-horned rhinoceros who had transformed into a half-demon: where should he go next?

But he only thought about it for a moment and an idea came to his mind.

Passing through the huge layer of gale that separated the earthly world from the heavenly world, the one-horned rhinoceros headed straight for the Xiniu Hezhou area.

The place he went to this time was exactly where he lived before he followed his master.

It’s not that special, it’s just that there are too many cows.

But after following his master, he often stayed in heaven for many years, which made the one-horned rhinoceros, who had long been bored, miss him often.

As I thought about it, that place naturally became special.

Therefore, when it came to the lower world this time, the first place that the unicorn thought of was there.

"hey-hey."

The more he thought about it, the happier he became. The one-horned rhinoceros hummed a little tune and flew rapidly towards the place of memory.

Soon.

A vast stretch of mountains appeared before our eyes.

Standing high in the sky, the one-horned rhinoceros found at a glance the large mountain range where he once lived. Looking closely, he saw that there were a large number of small monsters living on the mountains.

The same is true for the surrounding mountains.

Seeing this, the unicorn grinned again and said, "Hehe, it's just a coincidence. It's my destiny to be the king."

talking.

The unicorn flew rapidly towards the towering mountains below.

at the same time.

Jindou Mountain.

The top of the majestic main mountain.

Several little goblins from the kitchen were carrying roasted meat and various fruits into the Golden Dou Cave.

soon.

The little demon in the kitchen carefully retreated from the Golden Dou Cave.

Heijiao, the bull demon of the King of Jindou Mountain, slowly opened his eyes from the bed, slowly stood up with the help of two naked female demons beside him, and was about to walk to the stone table not far away that was filled with wine, meat, melons and fruits to enjoy a hearty breakfast.

at this time.

Hei Jiao only felt a flash before his eyes.

Then, he saw a tall figure with a single horn sitting on the main seat at the stone table that originally belonged to him, peeling an orange.

"Xiao Niu, the king let me sit with you."

At this time, the one-horned figure turned around, stuffed the orange flesh into his bloody mouth, and smiled at him, "What do you think?"

Hei Jiao's face was instantly filled with fear. He knelt down trembling all over, with his head bowed to the ground. He did not dare to look up, and said in a trembling voice: "Grandpa, spare my life! Grandpa has the final say! Grandpa has the final say!!"

The north wind is howling and the snow is falling.

The mountains are vast and covered with snow, and the sky and the earth are pure white.

Tongtian River area.

Since the first snow of this year came a few days ago, it has continued to snow intermittently.

evening.

Chenjiazhuang.

It is the largest village within a hundred miles.

This is the time when every house is lit up and smoke rises from cooking.

At this time.

A black cloud shot out from the distant mountains and headed straight towards Chenjiazhuang.

soon.

The black cloud then dived into the forest not far from Chenjiazhuang.

Not long after.

A handsome Taoist priest with black hair, wearing a blue robe and carrying a long sword emerged from the forest.

Then he walked onto a road on the side, stepping on the snow with some feet shallow and some feet deep, and headed towards Chenjiazhuang in the distance.

This figure is naturally Qi Hu.

Since I finished my investigation in Chechi Country a few days ago.

The next morning, he bought some supplies in the city and then left directly.

Although it has only been about a month since leaving Jindou Mountain, arriving at the Kingdom of Women in Xiliang, and then traveling to the present.

Only one-third of the three-month vacation that he and his king Black Horn had agreed upon had passed.

But Qi Hu could no longer stay outside.

If he was still in the Kingdom of Women in Xiliang, he might be able to stay there for three months.

But he really couldn't stay in Chechi Country anymore.

It was not because he killed a few monks, but because Chechi State was too parasitic by those monks, and Qi Hu simply did not want to see the arrogant and domineering faces of those monks. Otherwise, he would not be able to help but enforce justice.

In fact, he was deeply moved by this trip to Chechi State.

He didn't know whether the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas and Arhats in the Western Paradise knew about the behavior of the monks in Chechi Kingdom.

Maybe even if I knew, I wouldn't care.

After all, in his memory, many of the monsters and demons that brought disaster to the world were deliberately released by them to increase the difficulty of the westward journey team.

However, if he could really become the imperial teacher of Chechi State as he wished in the future.

He would certainly discipline those monks in the same way as the three brothers of Huli Daxian did in his memory.

Of course, the methods they use won’t be as cruel as those of the three brothers of Huli Daxian.

At the same time, he would also have a good talk with Tang Monk about the behavior of those monks who wantonly bullied the people and see what the legendary Tang monk would say.

In short, although Qi Hu was away from the human world for only a month, he gained a lot and had many feelings.

Perhaps it was because he had seen the ultimate prosperity in his previous life.

After seeing the new things in Xiliang Women's Kingdom and Chechi Kingdom, Qi Hu missed the human world much less. During these days of traveling, he even missed his cave on Jindou Mountain.

Therefore, after exploring Chechi Kingdom, they hurried back to the mountain.

As for the Chechi Kingdom, he had already investigated it clearly this time. The monk who was awarded the position of national teacher had cultivation level equivalent to the late stage of spiritual communication of the demon clan, that is, the late stage of leader, which was equivalent to Niu Er, the chief of Jindou Mountain.

With Qi Hu's current cultivation strength, he was confident that he could take down the monk with a surprise attack.

But, it's not necessary.

First, Qi Hu felt that his current cultivation strength was not enough.

He didn't say that he would surpass that monk and achieve the Yuandan realm, but at least he couldn't be worse than that monk, right?
Secondly, if he killed the monk in this way, even if he forced the King of Chechi to make him the national teacher, it would still be somewhat forced and coerced, which would not be legitimate.

Besides, it would still be at least thirty years before the team arrived. He was not here to enjoy himself in Chechi Kingdom, so what was the point of taking up an empty title? Moreover, if he forced himself into the position of national teacher, the king would not only not trust him, but would be hostile to him. Why bother?

therefore.

After careful consideration.

Qi Hu decided to wait until a drought occurred in the future and when the group of monks were unable to solve the problem, it would not be too late.

Anyway, he left a ghost monk Fa Ming in Chechi Kingdom, so he was not afraid of not receiving any news.

Thinking about something.

Qi Hu lay in the snow which was more than a foot deep and walked step by step to the gate of Chenjiazhuang wall.

"Where did it come from?"

A small window immediately opened on the thick door, and a young face popped up: "What do you want to do in Chenjiazhuang?"

Qi Hu immediately bowed and smiled, "My name is Qi, I came from Chechi Country. As it is dark and snowing heavily, I would like to stay in your guest room for one night."

"You wait"

After hearing Qi Hu's words, the other party looked at him carefully, then said something and turned away.

Not long after.

An old face appeared in the small window. Seeing Qi Hu covered in snow, he was surprised and said, "It turned out to be the young Taoist priest. I remember that the young Taoist priest stayed overnight in my manor a few days ago, right?"

Qi Hu smiled and said, "Old sir, you have a good memory. I stayed at your manor seven days ago. Now that this matter is over, I have just returned from Chechi Country. I will bother you for another night."

Hear Qi Hu give the detailed information.

The old man then smiled and said, "Don't blame me, young Taoist priest. It's really dark out there, there are many bandits and criminals outside, so we have to be careful."

"Open the door quickly."

soon.

The thick gate of Chenjiazhuang opened, revealing several strong men holding iron knives and wooden clubs behind the door.

Qi Hu was not at all nervous and followed the old man into the farm.

Soon.

He lived in a warm guest room.

There was also a dinner of one meat dish, one vegetable dish and one soup on the table.

Qi Hu took out a piece of silver and handed it to the plate of the boy who brought the meal. The boy did not refuse, said thank you, and left the room.

Only then did Qi Hu sit down at the table and start eating and drinking.

After traveling in the wind and snow for several days in a row, even someone as strong as him couldn't help feeling a little tired.

Chenjiazhuang is a good place to take a break.

Qi Hu was eating and drinking in the room, so he didn't know that in the room downstairs, the old man and several middle-aged men he had met before were talking about him.

"You all know how far Chechi Country is from our Chenjia Village. If the young Taoist priest is not lying, he must be very capable. Why don't we ask him to go to Dawen's house to take a look? Dawen's wife is making such a fuss. I'm worried that she will die before Dawen goes to Wangjia Village to invite the Taoist priest back!"

"Uncle San, I agree with my second brother. Please ask the young Taoist priest to go and take a look."

"Forget it, forget it. I'll go and invite them. If anything goes wrong, Third Uncle will take care of it."

The old man in a long robe said this and walked upstairs.

"Master Qi, have you rested yet?"

Soon, the old man knocked on the door and shouted.

Qi Hu, who had just finished two dishes, a soup and a bowl of rice, heard the sound and quickly walked to the door and opened it.

After a brief greeting.

The old man looked hesitant.

Qi Hu saw that the other party had something to say, and said with a smile: "I am very grateful to you for letting me stay overnight on such a snowy day. If you have something to say, please tell me directly."

Hearing Qi Hu's words.

The old man then started talking about a woman from a family in Chenjiazhuang who was contaminated with something dirty.

Qi Hu smiled and said, "I see. I think I have some skills. If you trust me, why don't you take me to see it? I will do my best."

Hearing Qi Hu's words, the old man was overjoyed and immediately led Qi Hu downstairs.

soon.

A group of men surrounded Qi Hu and the old man and walked towards the depths of the huge manor.

We walked all the way to the huge ancestral hall of Chenjiazhuang.

Two strong middle-aged men stepped forward and opened the door of the ancestral hall.

then.

Qi Hu saw a woman with disheveled hair and her head lowered, tied tightly with thick ropes to a huge carved stone pillar in the spacious ancestral hall.

Sensing the sound coming from the door, the tied-up woman immediately growled and struggled frantically.

The middle-aged man at the side asked hurriedly: "Master, is there still hope?"

Qi Hu saw what the woman had on her at a glance, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will definitely get rid of that evildoer and bring peace to your village."

Saying,

He looked at the people around him and ordered, "No matter what sound you hear later, don't go forward, and don't open the door."

Say it.

Qi Hugu stepped forward, walked into the Chenjiazhuang ancestral hall, and waved his hand to close the door.

"How to do?"

Seeing the Taoist priest go in, several middle-aged men immediately looked at the old man.

The old man said with a serious face: "Listen to the Taoist priest's arrangements!"

"boom!"

Watching the ancestral hall gate close and looking at Qi Hu's tall figure, the woman's animal-like pupils on the stone pillar shrank sharply, and she struggled and roared more frantically.

It’s just that her previous growls were full of arrogance, but now her growls are full of fear and despair!

Because she saw that behind the Taoist priest emerged a huge tiger with black mist rising from its body, which was extremely ferocious and hideous.

Qi Hu simply walked step by step to the trembling woman, opened his mouth and sucked, and a dark struggling shadow was easily sucked into his mouth.

Looking at the prompt data that suddenly appeared in front of me.

The corners of Qi Hu's mouth suddenly raised slightly.

"click"

When the gate of the ancestral hall opened again.

The people guarding outside the ancestral hall immediately looked over with nervous expressions.

Qi Hu walked out easily, looked at the people who were nervous and expectant, and said: "The evildoer has been eliminated, let's go and see the person."

Done.

Qi Hu strode towards the guest room.

The crowd approached the ancestral hall with half belief and half doubt, until they saw the woman raise her head and speak weakly.

Everyone was overjoyed and rushed in immediately.

I won’t mention the warm thanks from Chenjiazhuang later.

Early the next morning.

Qi Hu declined Chenjiazhuang's enthusiastic invitation and strode into the wind and snow.

　Thanks to several book friends for reminding me, the error has been fixed, thank you
