I am a fairy in Journey to the West

Chapter 127: Fang came out of the demon cave and fell into the hands of the Dragon King

There are three monsters on Qingshuang Ridge. The first is the tiger monster General Yin, the second is the bear monster Xiong Shanjun, and the third is the bull monster Te Chushi.

Today, Mr. Xiong Shan and Mr. Te were visiting General Yin's cave, but they did not expect that Monk Tang and his two companions would come to them.

The three demons were overjoyed. The hermit said to General Yin, "These three have come to my door. Are you going to treat them as guests?"

General Yin smiled and said, "This is natural, this is natural."

Xiong Shanjun said: "You can eat two and save one for later use."

"Okay." General Yin nodded, then ordered the little demon to kill the two followers, cut out their hearts and livers, cut off their heads, take out their internal organs, and give them to the three demons to eat.

When Tang Seng saw this scene, he was so frightened that his heart and liver broke and he almost fainted.

At this moment, a little demon suddenly ran into the cave and said, "My lord, the man on the ridge is here."

The three demons, who were eating bloody meals, looked at each other when they heard this. Then General Yin said, "Just say we're not here."

"Yes." The little demon responded and left the cave. The three demons continued to eat voraciously, especially the bear mountain king, who held a human head in his hand and gnawed and sucked it.

But the next moment, a cold wind suddenly blew in the cave, and the little demon in the cave was immediately blown cold all over and huddled into a ball.

The three demons suddenly stood up and looked forward, only to see a flash of light and the ghost of the Jinghe Dragon King appear in the cave.

After he received the Dharma from Zhuang Yan, he settled on this mountain, worshipping the heaven and the earth day and night. Now his soul is stable and his spirit is strong, so he calls himself "The Man on the Mountain".

He was going to go back to his mansion to practice, but he found that some living people were captured by the monsters here, so he wanted to save them and do some good deeds.

So the Dragon King of Jinghe River broke into the cave. After entering the cave, he found that there were three demons eating people. Only one monk was left uneaten.

Seeing this, the Dragon King of Jing River said, "Since the three of you have already eaten, I will take this monk away."

"How dare you." General Yin shouted, "I have captured this person. How dare you rob him?"

The Dragon King of Jinghe said, "We are all in this mountain together. Everyone who sees everything has a share. It is reasonable for you to eat two and I to take one."

The Bull Demon Hermit said, "That's reasonable. How dare you, a rootless wild soul like you, talk about reason in front of your Grandpa Bull?"

Xiong Shanjun said, "Don't waste your time talking to him, the three of us will join forces to beat him out."

"Okay." General Yin and Mr. Te responded one after another. Then the three monsters picked up their weapons and attacked the Dragon King of Jinghe River.

Upon seeing this, the Dragon King of Jinghe River raised his hand and waved it, and the 'water control' state took effect immediately. The three monsters suddenly stopped, and then their faces began to become ferocious.

After just a moment, the bodies of the three monsters shrank rapidly. All the water and blood in their bodies were sucked out by the Jinghe Dragon King, and then turned into ice cubes and fell to the ground.

With three 'thumps', the shriveled and cracked bodies of the three monsters fell to the ground and turned into a pile of dust.

When the little demons around saw this, they were so scared that they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, tears streaming down their faces. However, the Dragon King of the Jing River ignored them and took Tang Monk out of the cave.

When he got outside the cave, the little demons had already fled without a trace. Tang Seng came to his senses and bowed to the Dragon King of Jing River, saying, "Thank you for saving my life."

The Dragon King of Jinghe River waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be polite, Elder. I only came to your rescue this time to accumulate some merit for myself."

Hearing this, Tang Seng bowed again and said, "May I trouble you again, sir? My mount and my belongings are stuck in the cave."

Upon hearing this, the Dragon King of the Jing River said, "This is easy." After that, the Dragon King of the Jing River asked the little demon in the cave to send out Tang Seng's horse and gifts.

Tang Seng thanked him again. The Dragon King of Jinghe River asked, "I see that you have an extraordinary appearance. Where are you going?"

Tang Seng clasped his hands together and said, "I am following the order of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to go to the West to worship Buddha and seek scriptures."

Hearing this, the Dragon King of Jinghe River changed his expression and asked, "Are you the Master Xuanzang?"

Tang Monk smiled and said, "It is me."

The Dragon King of Jinghe River asked again, "I heard that the Tang King was pursued by an ungrateful spirit, and later he posted door god portraits all over the palace. Was it Master Xuanzang who came up with this idea?"

Tang Seng nodded again and said, "It is me."

"Hahahaha." The Dragon King of Jinghe River suddenly laughed and said, "Well, well, well, I have found it without any effort after searching everywhere. It turns out that the enemy is right in front of me."

When Tang Seng heard this, he was stunned. He looked at the Dragon King of Jing River and asked, "Why does this noble man say such a thing?"

The Dragon King of Jinghe River said, "Do you know who I am?"

"I don't know." Tang Seng said, but he felt something was wrong in his heart.

Sure enough, the person in front of him said, "I am the Dragon King of Jing River."

Tang Seng was greatly shocked and stared at the Dragon King of Jinghe River and took several steps back. At this moment the Dragon King of Jinghe River raised his hand and waved. A mist rose up and immediately picked up Tang Seng and flew to the top of Qingshuang Ridge.

There is a thatched cottage here, which is where the ghost of the Dragon King of Jinghe River hides and practices.

The Dragon King of the Jing River waved his hand and built an ice room outside his thatched cottage, and sealed Tang Monk in the ice room.

Tang Seng was immediately frozen stiff. He stood in the ice room and said to the Dragon King of Jing River: "Dragon King, if you let me go, I will pray for your soul to be reborn in paradise."

The Dragon King of Jinghe sneered and said, "No need. You should think about how to save yourself. This ice room is as cold as ice and will not melt even under the sun. If you can stay in it for forty days without freezing to death, I will let you go. If you freeze to death, I will get my revenge and it will be bad luck for you."

After saying this, the Dragon King of the Jing River no longer paid any attention to Tang Seng and went straight back to his thatched cottage.

Tang Seng watched the Dragon King of the Jing River leave with despair in his eyes. After a moment, he was shivering with cold. He could only sit cross-legged with his hands clasped together, curled up, and chanted Buddhist scriptures to pray for all directions.

At this moment, an old man with white hair and beard walked out of General Yin's cave. He said with a puzzled look on his face: "That's not right, why isn't it here?" After that, he immediately patrolled the mountains and finally found a little demon at the foot of the mountain. He immediately captured it with magic power and asked about the situation.

The little demon had escaped from General Yin's cave, and when the old man asked, it told the truth.

The old man was slightly surprised after hearing this and asked, "Who is this person on the mountain? How could he kill the three demons and capture Tang Monk?"

Then the old man asked the little demon again and found out the residence of the person on the ridge. He then immediately rode on a cloud and flew straight to the top of the mountain.

But when the old man reached the top of the mountain, he immediately saw the thatched cottage and the ice room in front of it.

The old man quickly flew down and soon saw Tang Seng in the ice room.

Seeing Tang Seng sitting in the ice room, his whole body turned black and purple from the cold, and he was shivering constantly, he immediately used his magic power and shot out a ray of Gengjin sword energy.

With a "pop" sound, the Gengjin sword energy immediately smashed one side of the ice room into pieces. Tang Seng heard the noise and opened his eyes quickly, only to see an old man saying to him, "Come out quickly."

When Tang Seng saw the ice wall in front of him being broken, he quickly crawled out from it.

At this moment, the Dragon King of Jing River flew out from his thatched cottage. When he saw Tang Monk being rescued from the ice room, he immediately shouted angrily: "Who are you? How dare you trespass into my altar?"

The old man looked back and asked in surprise, "Jinghe Dragon King? Why are you here?"

When the Dragon King of Jinghe saw that the old man recognized him, he was shocked and asked, "Who are you?"

The old man smiled and said, "Don't worry about who I am. This Tang Monk is going to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures. I have come here today to save him. If you know what's best for you, let me take him away."

"Hmph." The Dragon King of Jinghe snorted coldly and said, "I still need to talk with Master Xuanzang about the past. If you want to take him away, just wait a little longer."

The old man smiled and said, "I can't wait any longer. I can't wait any longer." Then he grabbed Tang Seng and rode on a cloud, ready to leave.

Upon seeing this, the Dragon King of the Jing River immediately raised his hand and pointed. In an instant, the clouds under the old man's feet froze into ice, freezing the old man and Tang Monk as well.

The old man screamed "Oh no!" and then fell from the sky with Tang Seng.

There was a loud 'bang' and the two fell to the ground. Tang Seng had been frozen into an ice sculpture, while the old man was shining with immortal light and kept using his magic power to resist the invasion of ice.

However, the old man's magic power was completely unable to withstand the ice, and the ice quickly froze most of the old man's body.

The old man hurriedly released dozens of Gengjin sword energies, but this time his Gengjin sword energies could not break the ice on his body.

Just as the old man was about to be frozen into an ice sculpture, suddenly a divine light descended, broke through the ice, and quickly took the old man away.

Seeing this scene, the Dragon King of Jinghe River frowned, but did not chase him. He just melted the ice on Tang Seng's body and took him into his thatched cottage.

"Dragon King, it is better to resolve a feud than to create one." Although Tang Seng was shivering with cold and his teeth were chattering, he still said to the Dragon King of Jing River, "I am only here to ward off evil spirits for you, Dragon King. I have no intention of making things difficult for you, Dragon King."

The Dragon King of Jinghe River said calmly: "At this point, no matter what you say, it is useless. Don't say you are a pilgrim. Even if the Bodhisattva comes, you have to stay here."

"Alas." Upon hearing this, Tang Seng sighed and sat there with a sad face.

On the other side, it is said that the old man was taken up to the sky by divine light, and a Taoist in green clothes stood in front of him. He melted the ice on his body with just a breath.

Then the Taoist in green asked with a smile: "Old Star Lord, what are you doing in this state? Why are you fighting with others in the human world?"

It turned out that the old man was Taibai Jinxing. He sighed and said, "Today, the pilgrim set out to seek the scriptures. I predicted that he would encounter disaster, so I came down to the mortal world to save him. However, things changed unexpectedly, or my prediction was inaccurate. I didn't expect that the pilgrim was captured by the ghost of the Jinghe Dragon King. I wanted to rescue him, but the ghost of the Jinghe Dragon King had great magical powers and was very skilled in controlling water to turn ice. If it weren't for the rescue of the God, I would have been captured as well."

"The Dragon King of Jinghe River? Didn't he break the heavenly rules and beheaded? How come he still has such great magical powers?" Zhuang Yan asked puzzledly.

Taibai Jinxing scratched his head and said, "Who knows? I don't understand it either."

At this point, Taibai Jinxing suddenly said, "Lord Lingtai, since you can rescue me, you can certainly rescue the pilgrim. Please act quickly, it will be too late."

When Zhuang Yan heard this, he quickly waved his hands and said, "Oh, that won't do. The journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures is a Buddhist matter, and those who seek scriptures are destined to go through hardships. How can I interfere in it? It's not appropriate."

Taibai Jinxing said anxiously, "Why shouldn't we intervene? Saving the pilgrims from disaster is also a good relationship with Buddhism. No one will say anything."

Zhuang Yan still waved his hands and said, "No, no, no, it's really inconvenient for me to intervene, Old Star Lord, you should find someone else."

Taibai Jinxing looked at Zhuang Yan with complicated eyes and said, "Lord Lingtai, you are not still holding a grudge, are you?"

"Holding a grudge?" Zhuang Yan asked in surprise, "What grudge?"

Taibai Jinxing said, "That Tang Monk is the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi. Are you still holding a grudge against him for accusing you of sleeping in the Huayan Temple?"

"Hahaha." Zhuang Yan laughed loudly, "That's not the case. I'm not such a petty person. Besides, Jin Chanzi apologized to me that day. How could I still bear a grudge against him?"

"Then why don't you help?" asked Taibai Jinxing.

Zhuang Yan said, "Alas, I can't meddle in other people's business."

At this point, Zhuang Yan suddenly said, "Oh, I got it. I heard that this pilgrim was chosen by Guanyin Bodhisattva. Now that the pilgrim is in trouble, Guanyin Bodhisattva will not ignore him. Why don't you go find Guanyin Bodhisattva?"

Taibai Jinxing's eyes lit up and he said, "That makes sense. I'll go to the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea and let them know."

As Taibai Jinxing was about to fly away on a cloud, he suddenly cried out "Ouch" and fell down as soon as he took a step.

Then Taibai Jinxing grabbed his legs and said with a grin, "Oh no, I must have been frozen stiff just now. Now my lower limbs are sore and stiff, and I still have no feeling. Lingtai Shenjun, please give me a ride."

Zhuang Yan smiled and said, "That's fine." After that, Zhuang Yan rode on the clouds and flew directly towards Luojia Mountain in the South China Sea carrying Taibai Jinxing.
