"Home?"
When Gongsun Liao heard Toad's words, he clenched his fists and made a slight "cracking" sound. He threw his cloak around and walked back and forth in front of the stone chair, extending his finger in the air as if pointing at the other party, but then hesitated.
He pursed his lips tightly, stood still, and suddenly yelled at the fat old man!
"Old Toad, you are a demon. Where has the might that swallowed the heaven, earth, sun and moon gone?"
The old man in front of the stone steps put his hands behind his back and lowered his eyes to look at the furious Demon King in front of the stone chair. He just smiled, walked to a stone bench with his bulging belly and sat down. He took a pot of wine from it and poured two cups.
"I am a demon, a demon all my life. I am tired of being a demon and want to be a human for once. Do I need your consent?"
He filled the cup with wine and waved his wide sleeves. One of the cups flew over to the stone chair and was caught steadily by the White Wolf Demon. The Toad Taoist raised the cup and took a sip.
"Tell me, what was the reason why the Spider Spirit asked me to return to the northwest mountains last time? If it was just to reminisce about the past, I am leaving now, and your disciple is still waiting for me."
Over there, the white wolf demon Gongsun Liao drank the wine in one gulp, threw the cup to the ground, and walked down the stone steps step by step.
"You are still thinking about your disciple. He has offended the Five Elements Immortal of Five Colors Manor. Even you, an old toad, will be in trouble. I asked you to come back to avoid being stewed by others."
How could Toad Taoist not hear the intention of admonishment? He had known this wolf demon for many years and had only seen him lose his temper a few times. This was the third time.
"I thank you for your kindness, but I still have to go. If that immortal really comes, I will take over for my disciple."
The White Wolf Demon King walked up to the old man and stopped with his back to back. The man in the cloak's fingertips, with sharp claws, broke through the skin and flesh and slowly stretched out.
"Old Toad, are you really not afraid of death?"
"I want to leave. Who can stop me here?" Toad Taoist reached out and poured another glass of wine.
At this time, a shouting sound was heard from one side of the cave. A fat man, tied up all over, walked in front, turning his head from time to time to shout at the little demons escorting on both sides:
"Now you know what I am capable of, right? Does your king dare to eat me? Untie me quickly and serve me good wine and delicious food. Oh, and where is the other pig? She is the one you call Second Mother. She has a slim figure and is beautiful!"
When he arrived at the front hall, he saw an old man in a gray robe sitting and standing in front of a stone table, and the wolf demon that had caught him. However, when his eyes fell on the old man, his fluffy black pig face was stunned for a moment. Feeling the demonic aura from the other person, how could he not recognize him
Still he asked tentatively: "Changyangshan, old toad?"
Taoist Toad glanced at the pig demon, put down his drink, stood up and waved his sleeves at the wolf demon who had his back to him, "Untie this pig. I know him well."
Gongsun Liao retracted the sharp claws on his hand into his fingertips and snorted. This pig demon was originally captured to help the other party repair his losses, so it was equivalent to giving it as a gift. Since he wanted to let it go, he would let it go.
With a wave of his hand, the white rope tied to Zhu Ganglie loosened and flew into the wolf demon's hand. If you look closely, you can tell that it seems to be a magic weapon made of mane.
The Toad Taoist glanced at the white mane he had put away in his sleeve, and his eyelids twitched.
"How many strands of hair have you refined?"
"Seven thousand six hundred, still far from the maximum number of nine." The wolf demon waved away several little demons who wanted to serve him, looked at Zhu Ganglie who was staring at the wine and dishes on the stone table with greedy eyes, and sat down to eat and drink.
Gongsun Liao was silent for a while, then spoke slowly, his tone no longer as aggressive as before.
"In addition to what I just said, there was originally one more thing."
"What's up?"
The firelight illuminated the figure who walked up the stone steps and stopped in front of the stone chair. The white wolf demon thought for a moment, shook his head, and sat back on the stone chair.
"Forget it, it's okay, just take this pig demon away."
"To entertain the old man."
The Toad Taoist waved his sleeves, stood up, pulled over Zhu Ganglie, who was stuffing food into his mouth and drinking wine with relish, pulled him up by the ear, and said goodbye to the White Wolf Demon King on the stone chair.
As we walked toward the cave entrance, Gongsun Liao's voice suddenly rang out.
"Old Toad, don't come back from now on. Live your life again."
The old man standing at the entrance of the cave paused, looked at the setting sun shining into the cave, smiled on his round face, and without saying a word, left with the pig demon who was still unsatisfied.
In the deep and distant cave, the wolf demon sitting on the stone chair fell into silence. After a while, a slim figure turned out from behind, swayed her waist, sat on the armrest, snuggled over, and put her red lips to his ear.
"Your Majesty, are you just letting the old toad go? Didn't you say that a great catastrophe was coming, and that if we wanted to escape it, the toad who had recovered his strength might be able to use his innate magical powers and his purple gold gourd to help our group of Northwest monsters escape? And now you..."
Over there, the white wolf demon patted the back of her hand, stood up and walked out of the chair.
"Don't worry about this matter. I will think of other ways..."
Since he became the Demon King, he could sense the changes in the world. In addition, beasts are naturally sensitive to danger. Every time he practiced watching the moon, a strange feeling came from the sky, which made him feel uncomfortable and palpitating, as if the sky would collapse and no living creature on this earth would be spared.
"All living things in the world live on this land. I don't believe that no one in the world who practices Taoism can sense it. I just don't know if we can put aside our prejudices and face this heavenly calamity together."
After thinking about it, Gongsun Liao turned around and walked towards the cave, and then ordered the demon to release the five people. He was a demon created by incense and did not need blood for food.
The charming woman in a purple gauze dress sat on the armrest and watched the white wolf demon leave. Her knuckles turned white from pinching the skin. Her smile faded, and she flicked her long sleeves and turned to leave.
"Hmph, it's hard to accomplish anything great even if I follow you. I heard that there's a new bone lady in the northwest. She's ruthless and cruel. Monsters from several hilltops are her followers. She's the type who can accomplish great things."
His eyes moved, his mind was filled with detailed thoughts, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he turned into a wisp of green smoke and flew out of the cave. In the farther direction, there was a White Tiger Mountain.
…
Among the rolling foothills, the Toad Taoist who had walked out of the demon cave suddenly stopped. Zhu Ganglie, who was walking in front of him carelessly, turned around and saw that he was sweating profusely and his body was hunched over.
"Old Toad, what's wrong with you?"
As soon as he finished speaking and took half a step forward, the old man turned into a large ball of purple smoke with a bang. A moment later, the mountain wind blew away, and a black shadow came out with its webbed feet flapping. It then turned into a standing toad, and stood there coughing a few times due to being choked.
Zhu Ganglie picked him up and put him on his shoulder: "Why did you change back to this state?"
"I don't have much mana to begin with, I just need to maintain my human form." The Toad Taoist curled up on his shoulder, activating the fish demon's demon pill in his body, absorbing the demon energy to make up for the mana he just consumed, and asked, "What about you? How did he catch you?"
The pig demon carried the Toad Taoist in the direction the other party pointed. He looked a little troubled and laughed out loud in embarrassment.
"I came here to look for my weapon, but I ran into a woman who said she was a pig. I guess she was a pig demon, and I am also a pig, so we are a good match. So we started fighting... and that attracted the white wolf demon."
On his shoulders that rose and fell as he walked, the Toad Taoist half-closed his eyelids, suddenly figured out the key points, and laughed out loud. He almost slipped off because his flippers didn't hold on tightly, and was pushed by the pig demon before he climbed back onto his shoulders.
But he still had a smile on his face as he said, "That woman is Zhu Er Niang, a spider, not a pig! This makes me laugh to death. Haha, weren't you banished from heaven? How can you be so cowardly!"
"And you're not?"
Hearing this, the Toad Taoist's smile froze. The pig and the toad looked at each other, turned their faces away, and walked for a long time before speaking again.
"Back then, I wasn't in such a predicament. I was so majestic..."
"… I am the same. On that day, the mountaintop was crowded with people and magic weapons blocked out the sun. But I, a demon, was forced to kill my way out."
"By the way, old Toad, are you sure this is the way to go? Don't go the wrong way."
"That's right, I and my disciple have a connection, just follow the instructions."
As the sun sets, in the faint red, the toad coils on the shoulder of the meat-mountain-like pig monster, walking southward while talking and laughing in the skylight.
Avoiding the main road where the soldiers and horses were traveling, a few secret agents finally found the disciple's presence.
The Toad Taoist recovered some of his magic power, jumped off the pig demon's shoulder, avoided crowded places, spread out his webbed feet, ran down the hillside excitedly, and dived into the gap of a thatched hut.
"Liangsheng, the master is back!!!"
