He said with a straight face: "This is absolute nonsense!"
Qing Huan argued: "But the monsters outside all say so..."
Jiang Lin looked at him disapprovingly: "Outside? Who are they? How did they know? Has anyone really eaten it to prove the truth of this matter?"
Qinghuan was dumbfounded. As a otaku, and a otaku who only liked to sleep, he had never been good at thinking.
He had never thought about these.
Seeing that he looked dazed and didn't understand, Jiang Lin realized that this was exactly the effect he wanted.
He softened his expression and said, "Besides, since you know that Tang Seng is the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi, then you must also know the origins of those disciples?"
Qing Huan was surprised: "What? What is the origin of his disciple?"
Jiang Lin: “…”
So, you only know that the master is easy to bully, but you don’t know what kind of person the disciple is
He immediately gave some basic information about the origins of Tang Monk's first, second and third disciples and their mounts.
"Lian, Lian Ma is the third prince of the dragon clan?" Qinghuan felt that he was frightened.
His original form is a snake, and the biggest goal in life for a snake demon is to have the opportunity to become a dragon one day.
A Jiao's lifelong goal is to transform into a dragon.
In other words, the ultimate goal of his ultimate goal is other people's mounts.
The dragon clan has a natural blood suppression on snakes. Qinghuan suddenly felt that his previous thoughts were too naive.
From his expression, I knew that most of his previous plans had gone awry.
Jiang Lin continued, "Besides, human flesh is so disgusting. Even the more sophisticated monsters like us don't eat humans."
Qinghuan nodded, completely unaware that the king in front of him had never eaten it either. How did he know
Jiang Lin said, "Okay, I'll just pretend you didn't say anything stupid like that. You should also keep your mouth shut and don't tell other monsters. I don't want people to know that there are such silly monsters in our Baihu Ridge."
Silly Qing Huan: "..."
He looked a little ashamed. After hearing what Jiang Lin said, he felt that he had lowered the level of the monsters in White Tiger Ridge. He quickly said, "I promise not to tell anyone!"
Jiang Lin nodded with satisfaction.
After seeing Qinghuan off, he sighed.
In this world, judging by their fighting power, many ordinary monsters are very powerful.
Monsters' qualifications are clearly determined by their bloodline, and the dragon clan, with its top-level bloodline, does not even show any advantage in terms of combat power. Moreover, in the world of Journey to the West, the status of the dragon clan is simply lower than the dust.
It's unbelievable.
Jiang Lin thought about it and could only conclude that this was the original author's setting.
The sky is big, the earth is big, and the author is the greatest.
Qinghuan was really convinced. After returning, he stayed at home obediently and never talked about this matter with any monster again.
As for the monsters in Baihu Ridge, anyone who has been there knows how good Baihu Ridge is. Except for a few who like to travel and play, most of them live here for a long time and may not go out for hundreds of years. Therefore, no monster has ever mentioned the news of Tang Monk's flesh.
It was a bit hot that day.
Tang Seng and his disciples came to a place called Baihu Ridge.
Sun Wukong looked ahead and saw clouds of various colors gathering together and demonic energy rising into the sky.
He sighed, fearing that this trip would be full of trouble.
It was already noon and the group had not eaten for half a day and were all starving.
Sun Wukong said, "I am fast and will go to beg for alms. Bajie and Junior Brother Sha, you guys take good care of Master."
Both nodded.
Sun Wukong was still worried and said, "I see that the evil spirit in White Tiger Ridge is so strong that it is more dangerous than any other place we have been to. You must remember not to take it lightly."
After his two fellow apprentices confirmed it, Sun Wukong was still worried, so he personally drew an anti-magic barrier and asked the master and his apprentices to stay inside and not leave.
After making all the necessary preparations, he finally felt at ease to leave.
Jiang Lin, who had been paying attention to this matter, already knew about it when the five-member group arrived.
He originally wanted to send a beautiful monster to greet the group of people, but suddenly he remembered that in the original plot, the White Bone Demon who transformed into a human form was discovered and killed by Sun Wukong.
I thought that no matter how beautiful she was, her true identity would be seen through, and she would be considered to have ulterior motives. Jiang Lin thought about it for a while, and picked out the most stupid and harmless one among the many little monsters under his command - Dog Head.
In fact, Dog Head is no longer a Dog Head now. Over the past few hundred years, he has finally cultivated into a complete human form, and looks like a handsome guy.
But everyone was used to calling him dog head, and it didn't mean to look down on him, so they didn't change it.
Moreover, Goutou has a hobby, and the customs of Baihu Ridge have not been able to change his aesthetic: he likes the way he looks with a dog's head, and thinks he is much more handsome than a human. When he has nothing to do, he still wears a dog's head.
At this time, Dog Head, who was sent an important task by the king, was very excited.
He remembered Jiang Lin's instructions clearly: remember to wear the dog head and not hide the identity of the monster; be polite and show the overall quality of Baihuling; if someone wants to hit him, beg for mercy in time.
Of course, Jiang Lin was afraid that the Great Sage would be jealous of evil and would beat the little monster to death before he could even say a word, so he did not forget to give the dog head a talisman.
Doghead is pretty lucky.
When he arrived, Sun Wukong had not returned yet.
He happily went to meet Tang Seng and his disciples with his unique and carefree head, and was not surprised to be warned*4.
Zhu Bajie was about to hit the monster, but Doghead started to yell, "I'm not a bad monster! Don't kill me!"
Zhu Bajie was stunned.
The dog-headed man honestly put his palms together, chanted a Buddhist name, looked at Tang Monk, and used all the words he had learned in his life: "Excuse me, are you the holy monk from the Tang Dynasty? I am a little demon under the command of the White Bone King of White Tiger Ridge. Our king admires the holy monk Gao Hua, and specially ordered me to welcome the holy monk here and invite him to have a chat."
Tang Seng was a gentle person. Seeing that the little demon knew etiquette and had no ill intentions, he said in a gentle voice, "Thank you for your kindness, but we have a mission to obtain scriptures, so it is inconvenient to disturb you."
Doghead said honestly: "But the entire territory ahead belongs to us at Baihu Ridge. If you want to go west, you have to pass through. We will disturb you anyway."
Tang Monk: “…”
The dog-headed man said, "And if you go around the area a thousand miles away, everyone knows that our king is hospitable and warm-hearted. There is absolutely no reason for a host to refuse to entertain a guest. If the monsters outside knew that you passed by White Tiger Ridge, they would laugh at our king for not fulfilling his duty as a good host."
This is obviously a fabrication.
But Tang Seng took it seriously.
He didn't like causing trouble for others and was used to thinking of people as kind, so he was a little hesitant.
Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing looked at Dog Head warily.
When the stalemate was just approaching, the eldest brother Sun Wukong came back.
When he saw the dog head, the Great Sage glared at him: "Who are you, little demon, to disturb my master?"
Perhaps because he saw that the dog-headed beast had too little magical power and was truly vulnerable, he didn't even take direct action.
The dog-head was so frightened by the mighty pressure from the Great Sage that he trembled. He wished he could immediately turn back to his original form and run away with his tail between his legs. However, he still remembered the Great Sage's instructions and just gritted his teeth and trembled as he said:
"It's really unfair! I don't have any bad intentions, and we in Baihu Ridge never eat people! Our king really just wanted to welcome the holy monk and the other kings."
Seeing that this little monster could still hold on in front of him, which was a rare display of character, the Great Sage looked up to Dog-Head.
He put the golden cudgel on his shoulder and said lazily, "Your king? I guess he is the White Bone Demon from the White Tiger Ridge? Doesn't he know that I, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, like to kill monsters the most? Isn't he afraid of me?"
The dog-headed man said tremblingly, "Of course our king has heard of the reputation of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. But the king said that the Great Sage Equaling Heaven slew demons and eliminated evil spirits. He slew those demons that violated the precepts and eliminated those evil spirits that deserved to die. He is a true hero!"
"Oh?" This was the first time that the Great Sage looked at Dog Head seriously.
He suddenly laughed: "I never thought that I, Old Sun, would hear such an evaluation from a strange monster."
He turned and looked at Tang Seng: "Master, I want to meet this White Bone King."
Tang Seng smiled warmly and put his palms together: "Amitabha, I also want to meet this donor of bones."
If these two agree, the opinions of others don't matter.
Doghead heaved a sigh of relief and finally smiled: "Please follow me."
After he said that, he took the lead and walked forward to lead the way, not caring about exposing his back to the group of people seeking the scriptures, looking open and frank.
The Great Sage smiled and said, "You little demon, you are quite courageous."
Dog Head didn't dare to say anything, he was about to cry in his heart: The king said, the Monkey King is a lawless person, you must not show a timid look in front of him, he is simply risking his life to pretend to be calm.
The five members of the pilgrimage followed Dog-Head through a valley barrier, and suddenly the view before them opened up: a silver river meandered along the way, with green willows and lush green grass on both sides.
There were many adorable young demons chasing and playing on the grass. Occasionally, some unknown wild flowers grew in the grass, blooming in succession in various colors, with fluttering butterflies flying among them.
Seeing Dog Head and a few others coming, a few who could transform came running over, calling "Uncle Dog Head" and looking at these strange monsters they had never seen before with curious eyes. They were not afraid of strangers at all.
This is the innocent look that only a child who has lived a happy and easy life all year round can have.
As the Great Sage looked at the scene before him, his heart, which had been as hard as a rock, suddenly felt a little bitter: he thought of the children in the Flower-Fruit Mountain.
Once upon a time, Huaguo Mountain was as peaceful and beautiful as this paradise, and the children were all so innocent and romantic.
Looking at Dog Head again, his eyes had become much warmer.
The others never expected to see such a scene.
Tang Seng smiled and bowed his head, clasping his hands together: "Amitabha, this demon land has been managed to be as peaceful and harmonious as a fairyland. The donor of bones must be a rare and strange demon."
