Journey to the West: Begins with Tiger Vanguard

Chapter 123 One year!
Walk into the Jindou Cave.

Qi Hu saw that the floor of the house was covered with carpets, and the stone walls were hung with various wall lamps and beautiful decorations. There were also many golden gold, luminous pearls and other pendants on the walls. It was obviously moving towards luxury.

Looking at the Jindou Cave, it just seems more and more tacky.

Qi Hu expressed his understanding of this.

The vast majority of monsters are born and raised naturally, and it is good enough for them to be able to live well, let alone things like studying.

Even if they have gone through untold hardships and have the luck to become a great demon, and have the extra time to consider luxuries like decoration and aesthetics, most demons tend to like shiny things, such as gold, gems, and night pearls. In short, the brighter and more sparkling, the better.

In fact, it's not just monsters, many humans or some other creatures are similar.

Of course, this is not to say that it is bad to like decorations such as gold, silver, and gems. It’s just that the aesthetic taste of each monster and each person is different.

Looking at the one-horned rhinoceros now, its aesthetic should be the same as that of most monsters in the world.

"Greetings, Your Majesty."

Looking at the one-horned bull demon in the bright cave, who was tall, had a single horn on his forehead, had an ugly and majestic face, and almost always wore only a light yellow animal skin soft armor. He sat as usual on a long table full of fruits, wine and meat, hugging the female demon maid to drink and watch the maid twist her buttocks, Qi Hu immediately saluted.

"sit"

Looking at Qi Hu, Dujiaosi pointed to a long table beside him where a witch maid was serving wine and food.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Qi Hu bowed again, then walked to the long table and sat down.

After the maidservant served the wine and food, she knelt down beside Qi Hu, picked up the wine jug and was about to pour wine for Qi Hu.

Qi Hu decisively refused and asked the other party to serve the unicorn.

And looking at this scene.

The unicorn immediately smiled and said, "It's okay. You're the only one in the entire Jindou Mountain who cares about these things."

Qi Hu just said: "The order of rank is high and low, the king is the king"

"never mind."

The one-horned Si looked at the female snake demon whose eyes were red and almost crying because of Qi Hu's words and laughed, "Qishan Jun doesn't want you, but the king wants you, haha, come here."

Looking at the unicorn who said he didn't care but was obviously satisfied with what he said.

Qi Hu nodded secretly in his heart. No matter whether he was a demon or a human being, he must have self-knowledge and a sense of propriety.

Besides, he really didn't like the female snake demon serving him, because the smell of rouge and powder on her body was too strong.

This made him, whose sense of smell was now extremely sensitive, feel pungent and uncomfortable.

After the female snake demon left, Qi Hu immediately picked up the wine jug, filled his own cup, and raised his glass, saying, "My humble offering to the king!"

"Come"

The unicorn raised his cup and smiled, then drank it all in one gulp. He then looked at the maid who handed him some fruit and said, "Oranges."

Watch this scene.

In Qi Hu's mind, besides complaining about Dujiao's true love for eating oranges.

He picked up the dried fruits on the plate in front of him and started eating them.

He knew that Dujiaosi must have something to ask him, but he didn't dare to ask, so he had to wait for Dujiaosi to speak himself.

At the main table, the maid quickly picked up a large plate of oranges, grabbed several from the plate, quickly peeled one of them, and fed the whole thing into the unicorn's mouth.

The unicorn nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Qi Hu and said, "I called you here because I have something to ask you."

Qi Hu said immediately: "Your Majesty, please speak up. I will tell you everything I know."

"kindness"

The unicorn nodded and smiled, "You did a great job in Chechi Country this time. Are Tang Sanzang and Sun Wukong still in your city?"

Qi Hu: "They are no longer in the city. A few days ago, they held several Dharma assemblies in the city and left the capital. They set off to other small towns in Chechi Country to hold Dharma assemblies. They will definitely not return to the capital for more than half a year!"

"Besides, it's winter now, with frequent snowstorms. Their trip to the Dharma Assembly will definitely not go smoothly. Moreover, I gave them a large vehicle. In this case, it's not easy for the large vehicle to travel on the road."

"Therefore, I feel that it will definitely take longer for them to come back than expected."

"Ha ha."

Hearing Qi Hu's words, Dujiao Si immediately reached out and touched his chin, then smiled and said, "You did a great job this time, but are there any hidden dangers?"

“Hidden danger.”

Qi Hu was stunned by these words, and then he shook his head and said, "Tang Sanzang is a great monk from the Tang Dynasty, and he also said that he is the brother of the Tang Emperor. I think he will not go back on his word. Moreover, I also asked them to hand over the "pass documents" in their hands to the King of Chechi before leaving the capital. If they don't return to the capital, they will definitely not be able to take them away."

"Moreover, I have sent people to follow them. I guarantee that they will visit all the small towns in Chechi Country and will not miss any of them!"

"Ha ha."

Hearing Qi Hu's words, Dujiaosi burst into laughter: "I knew you were good at what you did, but did they find out that you were the one behind all this?"

Qi Hu: "They probably didn't find out, otherwise Tang Sanzang wouldn't be able to hide it. Even if Tang Sanzang could hide it, Zhu Bajie wouldn't be able to hide his thoughts. From my perspective, they probably didn't find out."

"You are really smart, kid."

Hearing this, the unicorn sighed, then laughed and said, "Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie are much stronger than you, but now they have to stay in Chechi Kingdom to accompany Tang Sanzang to the meeting. You did a great job in this difficulty, better than the ones I know of."

talking.

The unicorn raised his glass.

Qi Hu immediately raised his glass as well.

The two monsters drank it all in one gulp.

The unicorn opened its mouth to take the orange fed to it, feeling the sweet juice bursting in its mouth, and continued, "After what happened to you, I think the time for Tang Sanzang and his disciples to come to my place will be delayed a lot, but it's never a bad thing to plan ahead."

"When Tang Sanzang and his disciples arrive at our Jindou Mountain, Lord Qishan, you are a smart boy, what can you teach me, the king?"

really
Hearing what the unicorn said.

Qi Hu knew that he had guessed it right, and the other party invited him to be an advisor and military strategist.

Because I thought about this problem in advance.

Qi Hu was not panicked. After a brief thought, he said, "I wonder if the king wants to outwit or outwit?"

Hearing Qi Hu's words, Dujiao Si immediately laughed and said, "How about outsmarting? How about fighting with force?"

Qi Hu: "Our Jindou Mountain is different from Chechi Kingdom after all. If Your Majesty wants to outsmart us, then you need to be humble."

Hearing this, Dujiaosi's face changed, and he frowned and said, "I saw that you didn't humble yourself to the pilgrim team at that time, so why do you have to humble yourself to the king?"

Qi Hu: "My cultivation is far inferior to that of Sun Wukong. If I befriend him for no reason, he will believe me, but it is different for the king."

Qi Hu didn't explain it clearly.

But Dujiaosi immediately understood, and then asked: "What about Li Di?"

Qi Hu: "It's easy to fight him physically. Just find a reason to capture Tang Sanzang, and then wait for Sun Wukong to come and rescue him."

Hearing Qi Hu say it was so simple, Dujiaosi couldn't help but be a little skeptical and asked, "So simple?"

Hearing the skepticism of the unicorn, Qi Hu immediately laughed and said, "Since your majesty wants to fight with all your strength, there is naturally no need to be so cumbersome. However, your majesty said that Sun Wukong was the Great Sage Equaling Heaven who caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago. I think his abilities must be very powerful."

Hearing Qi Hu's praise of Sun Wukong, Dujiao Si immediately snorted, "Don't worry about that, kid. I'm fighting Sun Wukong to see how capable he is at causing havoc in the Heavenly Palace!"

"As for Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing, this great king has no regard for them."

"That's it"

Hearing Dujiaosi's words, Qi Hu immediately laughed and said, "That's easy. We can just think of a way to capture Tang Sanzang directly."

Hearing this idea, Dujiaosi frowned again and said, "It's still too simple."

It looks like a one-horned rhinoceros that is obsessed with the sense of ritual and reputation.

Qi Hu immediately recalled the difficulty in Jindou Mountain in his previous life. It seemed that the one-horned rhinoceros had set up an empty house and placed the precious clothes inside, waiting for the pilgrim team to take the bait. As a result, when Sun Wukong went to beg for food, he really caught Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing who had stolen the treasures and clothes.

Although this method is very simple and crude.

It also shows that Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng were just the scoundrels who made up the numbers in the journey to the West.

But it does mention some things, that is, there is a name, Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng stole things.

The unicorn had a legitimate reason to capture them.

When I think of the memories of other monsters capturing Tang Sanzang, apart from some female monsters who were blinded by lust, many other monsters took the initiative to capture Tang Sanzang just to eat his flesh.

By contrast.

The one-horned rhinoceros's operation, which is similar to fishing enforcement, is indeed somewhat different.

Although Qi Hu wanted to complain in his heart, if he had the cultivation strength of the unicorn in front of him and the other party's powerful background, he would just go straight to the door with dignity and there would be no need to go around in circles.

But thinking about the fact that the Unicorn had previously refused to allow Jindou Mountain to expand, it was clear that he was indeed a person who did not like to cause trouble.

It seems normal for the other party to do this.

So, after a little thought, Qi Hu was ready to copy the homework directly and said: "Then let's make an empty room, put some treasures or food in it, and put it in front of the road where Tang Sanzang passes by, without closing the door. If they dare to take it without asking, eat the food in our room, and steal our treasures, we can just go to their door and arrest Tang Sanzang legitimately!" "What do you think of this idea, Your Majesty?"

"kindness"

After hearing Qi Hu's detailed plan, Dujiaosi immediately started to think. Soon, he looked at Qi Hu and said, "This is a good plan. What if Tang Sanzang doesn't fall for it?"

“Don’t be fooled”

Hearing this, Qi Hu immediately said, "Then think of another similar method. However, from what I have known about Zhu Bajie over the past few days, Zhu Bajie loves to eat. As long as you tempt him with some delicious food, he will definitely be unable to resist stealing some."

"Even if Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong and Sha Wujing don't want to eat, as long as Zhu Bajie eats it, we can break into people's houses without permission. If we don't discipline them strictly, the disciples will have no way to catch Tang Sanzang. Then Sun Wukong will definitely come to rescue Master."

"What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Hear this.

The unicorn finally nodded and said, "You are smart, and you have dealt with the pilgrim team before. I don't think you will deceive me. Let's use this method."

That’s all I have to say.

The unicorn immediately looked at Qi Hu and said, "If that method doesn't work, you have to think of another one for me. Anyway, I want them to be in the wrong. Can you do it?"

Hearing what the unicorn said.

Qi Hu immediately wanted to complain in his heart: "Didn't you only ask me to consult?" "Isn't this death order a bit too much?"

But who made the unicorn richer and stronger than him?
He couldn't refuse.

So Qi Hu immediately smiled and said, "Thanks to the king's trust, I will take care of this matter."

Speaking of it.

His mind turned, and he immediately said: "But I am alone and weak, my lord, can I think of a way?"

“Just think of a way.”

Hearing this, Dujiaosi immediately understood the meaning, looked at Qi Hu and said with a smile: "Okay, you just need to think of a way, you don't have to deal with Sun Wukong, you don't even have to meet them, how about it?"

"That's settled!"

Hearing Dujiao Si's words, Qi Hu was immediately certain in his heart, and immediately stood up and saluted, saying: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Sit down, sit down."

Seeing Qi Shanjun standing up to salute, Dujiaosi immediately raised his hand and said with a smile: "You are good in everything, but you are too polite, which is not good."

When Qi Hu heard the voice, he looked at the smile on Dujiaosi's face and smiled without saying anything.

The unicorn continued, "After all, it's not lively enough for the two of us to drink together. Come on."

soon.

The little demon guarding the gate immediately ran in quickly.

The one-horned rhinoceros said, "Go and call Black Horn Broken Tooth and Xiao Wen to come and have a drink."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The little demon received the order and immediately stood up and ran out.

Soon.

The bull demon Heijiao, the wolf demon Duanya and the wild boar demon Laowen rushed to the Jindou Cave one after another.

When he saw Qi Qishanjun already sitting down and drinking with the king.

Duan Ya was a little surprised and nodded at Qi Hu with a smile.

Lao Wen had no expression on his face and nodded towards Qi Hu.

Only Heijiao looked at Qi Hu with an unhappy expression.

Qi Hu didn't care about it.

If he had been beaten up by Black Horn back then, he might have even worse expression management than Black Horn now.

Of course, he clearly remembered Black Horn's arrogance, domineering and ruthlessness when he dealt with him!
He had already made a vow to kill Black Horn!

It would be fine if he died at the hands of several demons and immortals in the future journey to the West team.

If not, then the unicorn should have already gone to heaven by then.

That was when he killed Black Horn with his own hands.

In short, Heijiao’s death will not be too far away, so just let him live a few more days.

"Come on."

At this time, the one-horned si sitting at the main table asked the maids to go down and dance. He raised his cup and looked at the four Qi Hu monsters and said, "Let's drink this cup together."

Qi Hu immediately took the lead in raising his glass and said, "Cheers to the King!"

If it was at the beginning, when Qi Shanjun tried to steal the limelight like this, Duan Ya and the others would definitely call Qi Shanjun a flatterer in their hearts even if they didn't say anything.

But now, except for Heijiao's various dissatisfaction with Qi Shanjun, Duan Ya and Lao Wen have lost their temper towards Qi Shanjun. They both feel that the other party is indeed the number one general of Jindou Mountain. Whether in terms of strength or the degree of attention received by the king, he is truly the number one.

"Honor Your Majesty"

"Honor Your Majesty"

So everyone followed Qi Hu and spoke, even Heijiao who was dissatisfied.

This dinner of wine.

We drank until late at night and early morning.

When Qi Hu walked out of the Jindou Cave, he found that snowflakes were falling from the sky again.

Of course, he hoped that there would be more snow this winter. Chechi Kingdom was not too far from Jindou Mountain. Snowing here meant that the same would happen in Chechi Kingdom as well.

The pilgrims can also endure more wind and snow trials
This is beneficial to Buddhism, to the people of Chechi State, and to Qi Hu.

Of course, it is also beneficial to all members of the team to a certain extent and is completely harmless.

"General Qi"

At this time, I heard a voice behind me.

When Qi Hu turned around, he saw the wolf demon Duan Ya and the wild boar demon Lao Wen coming out, so he exchanged a few words with the two demons.

Heijiao finally walked out of the Golden Gourd Cave. Looking at the three monsters chatting, his expression immediately fell.

Qi Hu ignored the guy and after a few brief words with the two monsters, he flew directly towards Hongfeng Ridge on his cloud.

We haven’t reached the main mountain yet.

He could hear the bustling sounds coming from the main mountain of Hongfeng Ridge in the distance.

As soon as you reach the top of the mountain.

The loud voice from the eldest brother Changya immediately reached Qi Hu's ears.

The eldest and second brothers, the snake eaters, the ones with long beards and the big guys, and the one who had surrendered voluntarily and insisted on joining his army, a deer demon in the middle stage of the spiritual realm and a horse demon in the early stage, were the two leaders under the command of the musk deer demon Huang Cheng from Red Maple Ridge.

And there are also human ghost Liu Bin and deer ghost Huang Cheng.
Haven't entered the cave yet.

Qi Hu already knew the group of monsters under his command who were drinking and eating meat in the cave.

Walk straight into the Red Maple Cave.

Seeing Qi Hu coming back, all the monsters immediately saluted: "General."

"Meet the General."

Looking at the team that would form his own mountaintop in the future, Qi Hu said with a smile, "It seems that I have returned just in time. Come on, bring me more wine and food. I will not stop drinking tonight."

"Oh"

"Long live the general."

All the monsters suddenly shouted excitedly.

Qi Hu brought his elder and second brothers back to Hongfeng Ridge and stayed there for three to five days, allowing them to quickly integrate into the Hongfeng Ridge monster group.

So he left Hongfeng Ridge again and returned to Chechi Kingdom.

The following days.

Plain and calm.
Just like when Qi Hu was waiting for the arrival of the pilgrim team.

And this time the team did not disappoint him.

Never came back.

in this way,

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, a year has passed.
