Chapter 27: Tang Monk and the Monkey King

Views:

"Besides, this night was overcast and the moonlight was weak. But the moonlight that entered the formation was as strong as daylight. I once heard my master describe the Nanli Sword Sect's Dusk Sword, which is most powerful at dusk when the sun and moon alternate."

"You mean to say that a little bit of moonlight suppressed the evil spirit that had been entrenched for many years, and Brother Wuxi's cultivation might be higher than Nanli Jingtian's sword sect?"

"I have only been practicing for three hundred years, and I have never seen Mu Wan use his sword, so everything is just speculation. But there is one thing, and it is the most important point..."

"What?"

"Think about it carefully. We are all cultivators. What is the difference between me, the disciples of the Meng family, and your brother Wuxian?"

You have compassion in your heart, but Shu Wuxi has nothing in his heart

No, no, no, this is definitely not what Jiang Wuchao is referring to!

But if it's not this, what else is there

Lu Xiaochan's eyes lit up: "Oh! You all carry swords with you, but Brother Wuxi has nothing in his hands!"

"Yes, most of the famous swords in the world are made from the spirit bones of ancient spirit beasts. The most common ones are at least made from captured spirit beasts, with their essence and blood mixed into black iron. When the sword formation is activated, it can condense spiritual energy. The sword is the bridge between us and the spirits of this world. But Shu Wuxi led the moonlight into the formation without using a sword at all, which means that his cultivation is likely to be about to break through the realm of 'great trend'!"

"After the great trend, isn't it the realm of 'castration'? No need to borrow power, you can create things out of thin air. This is the true god..."

Lu Xiaochan was stunned.

Jiang Wuchao shook his head: "No, no, no, if there is a true God in the world, how could we not feel His divine power and miracles?"

"But you know who he is, right? There are very few people in the world who can reach his level. If it's not the Sword Sect of Nanli Jingtian, could it be the Sword Sect of Xiyuan Jingtian, Hao Fu?"

Jiang Wuchao smiled: "You know a lot."

"Shu Wuxi told me all this."

"Which sword sect did he mention to you?"

"No, it is said that after the fall of Dongxu and Beiming Sword Sect, there is no one to succeed them."

Jiang Wuchao smiled: "Beyond the four directions, there is also God's will."

"ah?"

"Okay, okay, if he doesn't want to tell you, why bother asking. You just need to know that you don't have to be afraid of anything if you follow him. Even if your spiritual light leaks out and provokes evil spirits, he will help you deal with it one by one."

"What? Where did my spiritual enlightenment come from?"

"Why do you think the evil god entrenched here took such a risk to lure you and Shu Wuxi to save me? If the evil god could devour the Dan Yuan of the cultivators, it would be much more useful than absorbing the evil desires for hundreds of years."

Lu Xiaochan suddenly remembered that when Ren Erniang was invaded by an evil spirit in the inn, she also came to seduce him. It was Shu Wuxi who taught him how to form an elixir and restrain his spiritual energy.

This time, the evil god in the ancient tree also called him "Fairy Boy".

Lu Xiaochan rubbed her hands and asked again: "Jiang Wuchao, can you see my spiritual energy?"

"I just think you're pretty. I've been practicing for three hundred years, but I'm still not able to see the spiritual energy on you. For an evil spirit to be revered as an evil god and intimidate hundreds of people, it must have been absorbing evil thoughts for at least three hundred years."

“I just didn’t expect these villagers to still believe in it!”

"What's so strange about this? Everyone in the Demon City believes in the evil god Chaos. You have to be careful not to get caught by them and turn you into a magic pill to feed the evil god."

Lu Xiaochan shuddered, and at this time she pulled the Immortal Locking Silk on her wrist hard. It was Shu Wuxi who was unhappy waiting outside and asked him to go out.

"Then Brother Jiang, you should have a good rest. We will see you later."

"See you later!"

Lu Xiaochan walked out of the house and tried to climb onto Lu Shu's back for a long time but failed. He couldn't help but pat Lu Shu.

"Are you holding your neck high on purpose to prevent me from getting on?"

"Hmph! Hmph!" Lu Shu wanted to sweep Lu Xiaochan with his tail, but when he remembered that last time he tried to sweep him, his tail was intercepted by Shu Wuxi, he dared not move this time.

"What are you humming about! You're not a pig!"

Shu Wuxi came to Lu Xiaochan's side, bent down on one knee, grabbed Lu Xiaochan's feet, and lifted him up.

At this time, Jiang Wuchao just walked out of the house and saw this scene.

He knew in his heart that with Shu Wuxi's cultivation level, he was naturally cold and aloof, but he could calmly bow his head in front of Lu Xiaochan, which showed that Lu Xiaochan was extraordinary to him.

Lu Xiaochan sat up straight, took the medicine bottle from her waist, opened the lid, raised her head and gulped down a mouthful of wine, "Let's go!"

Jiang Wuchao looked at the wine jug and paused.

There seems to be a pair of crickets fighting on the medicine pot, which looks very vivid.

He remembered that Ling Nianwu had mentioned to him that when he first met Li Chejun, Li Chejun was carrying a lot of bottles and jars. These bottles and jars did not contain elixirs, but soil that gathered spiritual energy from all directions. He planted magical herbs in these bottles and jars, and took them with him wherever he went, using his own spiritual energy to feed them.

The only thing he had on his waist was a medicine pot, which was one of the three great instruments of the Tailing Pavilion, the orthodox medical sect - the Tailing Zhenyuan. It was originally a magical instrument that connected the water sources of the world, but Li Chejun was very willful. Every time he traveled to a place, he would put the wine from that place into the Tailing Zhenyuan, saying that he wanted to make a fairy wine that could make cultivators with thousands of years of cultivation drunk.

And on the medicine pot, there was a pair of moving crickets carved.

Could it be that Lu Xiaochan is...

Jiang Wuchao immediately lowered his head and performed the great salute of an immortal. He did not straighten his back until the figures of Shu Wuxi and Lu Xiaochan were completely out of sight.

Lu Xiaochan was riding on Lu Shu's back when she suddenly thought of something and quickly pulled the Locking Fairy Silk.

"Brother Wuxi! That evil god said that I have spiritual energy! Brother Jiang also told me to be careful that the people in the Demon City might capture me and make me into a pill! Do I really have spiritual energy?"

"Yeah." Shu Wuxi responded lightly.

"No... I was born with only one thing I learned - begging! Where did my spiritual energy come from?"

Lu Xiaochan tilted her head, puzzled.

"Tell me, if there are evil spirits coming along the way and want to eat me, what should I do? Wouldn't I become Tang Monk's meat?"

"What is Tang Monk's meat?" Shu Wuxi asked.

Lu Xiaochan choked up: "You... you haven't heard the story of Tang Monk and the Monkey King?"

"No."

"Let me tell you, Tang Seng is the reincarnation of the golden toad boy from heaven! That... "

"There is no golden toad boy in the sky."

“… This is a myth, just listen to it! It is because this Tang Monk is the reincarnation of the Golden Toad Boy that all the demons and ghosts want to eat a bite of Tang Monk’s flesh. They don’t need to practice, they can become immortals directly!”

"So where is Tang Seng now?" Shu Wuxi asked.

"ah?"

"I'll catch him. If you eat his meat, you can become an immortal sooner." Shu Wuxi stopped and stood beside Lu Xiaochan.

Lu Xiaochan could imagine that Shu Wuxi was extremely serious at this moment.

"I... I'm not a monster, why should I eat Tang Seng's flesh?"

"This way you can improve your cultivation sooner, and I won't have to wait for you all the time."

"… "

Lu Xiaochan suddenly felt a little touched.

"That Tang Monk doesn't exist. It's just a folk myth! The point is, you see, I am like Tang Monk now! Evil spirits are like demons and monsters! Tang Monk has the Monkey King who can see through demons and monsters in the world with his fiery eyes to protect him. What should I do? Can you teach me how to hide my spiritual energy?"

"Then you must first reach the state of 'entering the state', experience all things in the world, and establish connections with them, then you can naturally introduce spiritual energy into the Danhai."

“How long will it take to learn?”

“It may take 70 to 80 years, or 200 to 300 years, or even never.”

Lu Xiaochan immediately felt like an eggplant hit by frost.

He is not a diligent person, and I estimate that he will be the type who can last for two or three hundred years.

After such a long time, he would have already become an elixir.

"Can't I?" Shu Wuxi asked.

"What can't you do?" Lu Xiaochan asked weakly.

He felt that his fate was bleak.

"Be the Great Sage Equaling Heaven if you are Tang Seng."

Lu Xiaochan was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head and smiled.

"Xiaochan, why are you laughing?"

"I am not Tang Monk. Tang Monk cannot identify demons and ghosts, and is compassionate to everyone he sees. That is why he always distrusts the Monkey King who has been protecting him. You can imagine how aggrieved the Monkey King must feel. So you should not be the Monkey King. I don't want you to be aggrieved."

"good."

"I think I'm fine too." Lu Xiaochan took out the pot from her waist and took another sip.

"You smiled very beautifully just now."

Shu Wuxi said these words in such a cold voice that Lu Xiaochan almost choked on the wine.

"But it's really troublesome not being able to hide your spiritual energy!"

Lu Xiaochan suddenly had a feeling of "I am naturally beautiful, so don't set your sights on me."

"Little Cicada, open your mouth."

"ah-"

As soon as Lu Xiaochan opened her lips, Shu Wuxi flicked something the size of a soybean with a faint silver-blue glow into her mouth. Lu Xiaochan swallowed it down in one gulp.

I just felt relaxed all over my body and full of energy in an instant.

"what is this?"

"I refined that evil god. It has been wandering the world for thousands of years, committing evil everywhere. Its spiritual energy after being refined can increase your cultivation by ten years."

"Wow! Really! So this is actually possible!"

"Um."

Lu Xiaochan was thinking in his mind, if Shu Wuxi refined a dozen or twenty evil gods for him, would he be able to break through to the realm of "entering the state" immediately

Wait, how could we encounter so many evil gods in a journey of more than ten days

It's wishful thinking!

The two of them walked and walked, and after four or five days, they completely walked out of the mountain range and came to a prosperous town.

When they arrived in Miancheng, it was the Lantern Festival.

There were colorful lights everywhere, and clusters of fireworks rose into the air and exploded.

Shu Wuxi walked forward nonchalantly, but Lu Xiaochan, who was riding on Lu Shu's back, tilted his ears and listened carefully.

This place is completely different from Lushu Town, with richer smells and sounds.

"Brother Wuxi! Brother Wuxi! What are those crackling sounds?"

Shu Wuxi just replied: "I don't know."

"Ah? How come you don't know?"

Haven't you lived a very long time

Lu Xiaochan's pretty face came in handy. A little girl holding a lantern smiled and said, "Young Master, those are fireworks! After they are lit, they rise into the night sky and bloom into a large flower of various colors!"

"Thank you!" Lu Xiaochan smiled broadly at the other party.

But before the lantern girl could say anything, Shu Wuxi raised his wrist and pulled forward, and Lu Xiaochan suddenly fell on Lu Shu's back.

Along the way, people kept looking at Lu Xiaochan.

"This young man is so handsome!"

"Just like the fairy boy in the painting!"

Lu Xiaochan wiped his nose. Someone even gave him a lantern just because he was handsome.

It was a little white rabbit, and Lu Xiaochan kept holding it in her hand, feeling extremely happy.

At this time, Shu Wuxi in front stopped and found someone selling masks.

"Come here! Take a look! There are all kinds of masks! There's Tang Monk! And the Monkey King! The Curtain-Pulling General! Marshal Tianpeng!"

"Give me a mask of Tang Monk." Shu Wuxi gave three cents to the vendor.

Lu Xiaochan was surprised: "Brother Wuxi, you also want to play with a mask?"

"It's for you."

When Lu Xiaochan heard this, she quickly shook her hands and said, "I don't want Tang Monk! I want the Monkey King!"

The vendor laughed as soon as he heard this: "Children all like the Monkey King!"

Lu Xiaochan took the mask Shu Wuxi gave him, put it on his face, and waved the white rabbit lantern.

"Why did you think of buying a mask for me to wear?"

"They are all looking at you, and their eyes are full of lust."

"… "

It’s over, it’s over. Is this brother going to pluck out someone’s eyes again

what to do

"But you don't like me to pluck their eyes, so I can only put a mask on you so that they can't see you."

Shu Wuxi's voice was clear and cold, and his seriousness made Lu Xiaochan want to laugh.

"Brother Wuxi, have you ever heard of this saying - you see lustful thoughts in other people's eyes because you have lustful thoughts yourself?" Lu Xiaochan just wanted to tease him.

"I can have it, but others can never have it."

Although there was a hustle and bustle and noise around her, Lu Xiaochan could hear it clearly.

What can you have? Don't say it's lustful!

You can eat whatever you want, but don’t say anything you don’t understand, brother!

Several more explosions sounded in the air, and Lu Xiaochan heard the exclamations from all around.

They all praised how beautiful this year's fireworks were.

Unfortunately, Lu Xiaochan couldn’t see anything at all.

Shu Wuxi stopped and asked, "Do you want me to take you to a higher place?"

"What are you going to do up there?"

"I can hear it more clearly."

Lu Xiaochan was slightly startled and her heart felt warm.

"Okay! Take me to a high place to listen to the fireworks!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shu Wuxi tightened the Immortal Locking Silk. Lu Xiaochan's body became lighter and hung in the air. When she fell again, she had already reached a rooftop.

The wind blew past his ears, carrying all kinds of fragrances.

"You can sit down now. Slow down."

Shu Wuxi's voice rang in his ears.

Lu Xiaochan smiled with his eyes narrowed, and deliberately tried to grab Shu Wuxi beside him. He knew that at a high place, Shu Wuxi would definitely not punish him for grabbing him.

Sure enough, Shu Wuxi's arm just trembled slightly, but he still let Lu Xiaochan sit down by pressing his forearm through his clothes.

Although she couldn't see the beautiful sight of fireworks, Lu Xiaochan imagined all kinds of colorful scenes in her mind.

Shu Wuxi sat next to him, very quietly, as if he didn't exist.

Lu Xiaochan felt like it all was like a dream.

He felt that he was destined to be alone. One day he would fall ill and be unable to move. He would have no strength to beg, so he would curl up in a corner where no one could see him and stop breathing.

But Shu Wuxi appeared, and he was different from everyone he had ever heard of and felt.

He doesn't lie and he seldom speaks, but he is very careful about every step Lu Xiaochan takes and every bite of food she eats.

This suddenly made Lu Xiaochan very curious. What was the person that Shu Wuxi had said he had been waiting for like

How good does he have to be to make Shu Wuxi wait for him

"Hey, Brother Wuxi."

"What's wrong? Are you hungry?"

Lu Xiaochan smiled: "Is it true that in your mind, all I do is sleep and eat?"

"And watching the fun and meddling in other people's business."

"Then let me ask you a question, and you will think I am meddling in your business. What kind of person is the one you have been waiting for? Tell me about it, and maybe I can recognize him if I meet him in the future."

Wisps of fireworks rushed into the night sky and burst into life with a bang. The bright light turned Lu Xiaochan's smiling face into various colors.

"He... is someone I just don't understand." Shu Wuxi's voice was tinged with the worldly touches amid the bang bang of sky-high firecrackers.

"Why don't you understand the law? Tell me and I'll analyze it for you. Maybe you'll understand it!"

Lu Xiaochan tugged at the Suoxian Ling, and Shu Wuxi's wrist was slightly lifted up by him.

"I had to break through a big barrier back then, and he was sent to watch over me to prevent me from going astray."

Lu Xiaochan hugged his knees and looked in the direction of Shu Wuxi. Although he could not see anything, he knew that Shu Wuxi was looking at him with his face turned sideways.

"Hahaha, you're so powerful. If you really go crazy, you'll be even more powerful. How can he keep an eye on you?"

"He kept complaining that he was bored and wanted to go down the mountain. He said I was cold and indifferent to him as a guest."

"Wow, isn't he here to look after you? Wouldn't he bother you if he keeps yelling all day? What if he drives you crazy?"

"I thought maybe I really wasn't very nice to him, so I agreed to be nicer to him."

"How to be better?"

Lu Xiaochan thought, is it like this to be good to him

The author has something to say: Lu Xiaochan: Oh my, I’m not really the reincarnation of Tang Monk, am I

Shu Wuxi: Why

Lu Xiaochan: Look, I am riding a white dragon horse, and you are following me. That Jiang Wuchao should be Monk Sha, the only one missing is Zhu Bajie!

Shu Wuxi: What does Tang Seng do

Lu Xiaochan: The monk who went to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures

Shu Wuxi: You are more like the Jade Rabbit, who is restless even after entering Guanghan Palace.

Lu Xiaochan: Huh? What about my sister Chang'e? I need sister Chang'e to hold me and stroke my fur every day.

Shu Wuxi: You still want Sister Chang'e? It seems you don't want Mao anymore.

Fat Melon: The comments have dropped by half? If you guys are not sweet anymore, then Xiaochan will not be sweet either! Humph!
