I am a fairy in Journey to the West

Chapter 159 Seeking Help from Huang Feng

Seeing the monster dive into the water again, Sun Wukong turned to Zhu Bajie and said, "Bajie, I heard that you swam across the Weak Water River to suppress the rebellion. Although this Quicksand River is not as good as the Weak Water River, it is time to show your ability."

When Zhu Bajie heard this, his face suddenly changed and he said, "Brother Monkey, you won't let me go into this quicksand river to catch monsters, will you?"

Sun Wukong said: "Why not?"

Zhu Bajie quickly turned his head and said, "No, no, that monster's sand control method is so powerful that even you will suffer if you go. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back if I go down."

Sun Wukong laughed and said, "You idiot, how come you can't come back when I'm taking care of you?"

Zhu Bajie pointed at Xiao Bailong and said, "Second Brother is a real dragon, why don't you let him go?"

When Xiao Bailong heard this, he smiled and said, "You can give it a try."

Sun Wukong asked with a smile: "You, a real dragon, can enter water, but can you walk on sand?"

Xiao Bailong shook his head and said, "That's impossible."

Sun Wukong laughed and said, "That still depends on Bajie."

As he said that, Sun Wukong stepped forward and grabbed Zhu Bajie's ear, "Fool, you have to go today."

Zhu Bajie felt pain and cried out, "Master, Monkey King is bullying me."

Tang Seng said quickly: "Wukong, just talk to Bajie and don't fight."

Sun Wukong said: "Master, if you want to cross this Quicksand River, you must subdue the monsters in the river. Master knows which is more important."

When Tang Seng heard this, he immediately said to Zhu Bajie, "Bajie, since you have the ability to swim across the Weak Water River, then this Quicksand River will not be able to stop you. Just listen to Wukong and go down and give it a try."

When Zhu Bajie heard what Tang Seng said, he could only hum for a long time, and then said: "Okay, okay, I'll go down, but Brother Monkey, you have to keep an eye on me."

Sun Wukong laughed and said, "What are you afraid of? If you really die in there, I will ask the King of Hell to give you a good rebirth, which will be the body of a pig."

Zhu Bajie said, "Thank you for taking care of me. My pig body is still in good condition."

As he spoke, Zhu Bajie walked to the shore, pulled his ears down with both hands, and the two big ears immediately covered his ears. He pinched his nose to cover his nostrils, and finally took a deep breath and closed his mouth.

Only a pair of eyes were not closed. A ray of divine energy appeared on Zhu Bajie's body, and then a layer of white transparent iris suddenly appeared in his eyes.

Afterwards, Zhu Bajie was covered with divine energy, flew up, and jumped straight into the quicksand river.

As soon as Zhu Bajie entered the water, quicksand rushed towards him from all directions.

But this time, Zhu Bajie's body was completely sealed, and the quicksand could not enter his body at all.

At the same time, Zhu Bajie did not sink in the water and did not get stuck in the sand. Holding the rake in both hands, he swam towards the bottom of the river regardless of the quicksand around him.

Soon Zhu Bajie passed through the quicksand and appeared at the bottom of the quicksand river. The water here was clear and transparent, with fish swimming in the shallows. A simple cave appeared in front of him, and the monster was walking out of the cave at this moment.

When the two met, both Zhu Bajie and the monster were shocked.

Zhu Bajie was shocked by the monster's appearance, while the monster was shocked that Zhu Bajie actually passed through the quicksand layer he had set up and appeared at the bottom of the quicksand river.

The monster immediately offered his magic staff, and Zhu Bajie suddenly opened his mouth and said, "General Juanlian, do you still recognize me?"

When the monster heard Zhu Bajie tell him his origins, he was also shocked and asked, "Who are you? How could you know my origins?"

Zhu Bajie said: "I am Marshal Tianpeng."

"Nonsense." The monster scolded, "Marshal Tianpeng is the commander of the Tianhe Navy. He is very powerful. How can he look like you?"

Zhu Bajie said, "I am indeed Marshal Tianpeng. I was demoted to the lower world because I violated the rules of heaven. After reincarnation, I took the wrong path and was born as a pig. Let's not talk about the past. General Juanlian, for the sake of our past colleagues, can you let us cross the Quicksand River?"

The monster looked at Zhu Bajie in confusion, then said, "It's easy to cross the river. Just leave someone for me to eat."

Zhu Bajie said, "I agree to all your other conditions, except this one."

The monster said, "Then there is nothing we can do. None of you can cross the river."

"Damn it, if you don't accept my toast, then I'll let you taste my rake." After saying this, Zhu Bajie picked up the rake and rushed forward.

When the monster saw this, he also raised his magic staff and swept over. In an instant, the rake and the magic staff collided with each other, sparks of fire splashed, and water splashed.

Zhu Bajie was full of divine power and attacked with great vigor and strength like that of a mountain. He beat the monster so hard that it retreated again and again, with the staff in his hand trembling constantly.

Although the monster was inferior to Zhu Bajie, it was able to resist Zhu Bajie's attack with ease. During the fight, the monster made a gesture and immediately used the "sand control" method.

The next moment, the quicksand above suddenly poured down and pressed towards Zhu Bajie.

Zhu Bajie laughed loudly and said, "I have a special Dharmakaya, so your quicksand cannot trap me. I also have the Immortal Qi to protect my body, so these quicksands cannot enter my body either."

At this point, Zhu Bajie said, "I was an official in the Heavenly Palace before, but I never heard that you have the skill of controlling sand?"

The monster said proudly: "This method was given to me by a god in my dream when I was practicing in this Liusha River."

After the monster finished speaking, he saw that the quicksand could not trap Zhu Bajie at all, and was completely blocked by Zhu Bajie's immortal energy, so he said, "Thank you for reminding me."

After saying that, the monster controlled the quicksand to flow and surge, and suddenly countless filthy things spewed out of the quicksand.

Those filthy things hit the immortal power along with the quicksand and broke Zhu Bajie's immortal power in an instant.

As the saying goes, everything in the world is mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining. This immortal barrier can seal the whole body and make it leak-free, but it is afraid of all dirty things. When the immortal barrier was broken, Zhu Bajie was horrified and hurriedly tried to swim out of the water.

But soon the quicksand rushed in and immediately trapped Zhu Bajie inside. Countless quicksands penetrated into his body, and Zhu Bajie was soon sealed by the quicksand.

Seeing this, the monster stepped forward and tried to capture Zhu Bajie. At this moment, the quicksand above his head suddenly turned red. The monster looked up and saw two golden lights shooting straight down and instantly landed on him.

With a light "puff" sound, the two golden lights directly pierced through the monster's body, and the monster's body instantly turned into quicksand and dispersed. It turned out to be a fake body made of quicksand.

The monster's real body appeared ten feet away, looking upwards in shock. If he hadn't used quicksand to gather a fake body when fighting with Zhu Bajie just now, he would have been dead by now.

Following the two golden lights was an iron rod, which reached into the bottom of the river, picked up Zhu Bajie and pulled him up.

The monster looked at the iron rod that picked up Zhu Bajie and left with fear, and turned back into the cave without a moment's delay.

Outside the Quicksand River, Sun Wukong picked up Zhu Bajie, put him on the ground, and blew at him.

In an instant, countless yellow sands began to flow out of Zhu Bajie's seven orifices, and soon piled up into a sand pile around him.

The little white dragon at the side said: "Big Brother, those two golden lights that came out of your eyes just now."

Sun Wukong laughed and said, "That is the divine light of the Fire Eyes and Golden Pupils. It has been suppressed under the Five Finger Mountain for five hundred years, and I just remembered it today."

Little White Dragon: “.”

As the yellow sand left his body, Zhu Bajie opened his eyes and sat up. He turned his head to look at Sun Wukong beside him, then stood up and said, "No, no, I can't do this job."

Zhu Bajie returned to Tang Seng and told him the following situation, saying, "Master, it's not that I'm lazy, it's just that I can't do this job."

Sun Wukong came over, and Tang Seng immediately said with a sad face: "Wukong, what should we do?"

Sun Wukong pondered for a moment, then said with a smile: "Master, don't worry. This monster has the ability to control sand and hides under the water. We can't do anything to him, but there will always be someone who can deal with him."

After saying this, Sun Wukong said to Xiao Bailong and Zhu Bajie, "My two junior brothers, please stay here to protect Master. I will be back soon."

Xiao Bailong cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, big brother."

Afterwards, Sun Wukong somersaulted up to the first heaven and came to the palace of Jade Master, but he couldn't find Zhuang Yan after searching around, so he finally came to the Demon Subduing Hall.

When the demon-suppressing general Liu Yan saw Sun Wukong, he hurried forward to pay his respects. Sun Wukong asked, "Why don't you see my uncle?"

Liu Yan smiled and said, "Great Sage, the True Lord returned to the Lingtai Mountain Taoist temple to practice in seclusion half a year ago."

Hearing this, Sun Wukong said, "That's really unfortunate."

Liu Yan asked, "Great Sage, have you encountered another demon or monster blocking your way?"

Sun Wukong said: "He is not some big demon. He can't even catch a blow from me. He just has the ability to control sand and hides at the bottom of the quicksand river. I am not good at swimming, let alone controlling sand, so I can't catch him for the time being."

Liu Yan smiled and said, "I see. Although the True Lord is not here, the Chief Steward of Dufeng is in the mansion right now. How about I ask him to help the Great Sage?"

"General Manager Dufeng?" Sun Wukong was stunned.

Liu Yan smiled slightly, and then said to the heavenly soldiers outside the palace: "Pass my decree and ask the chief steward of Dufeng to come over."

Soon, a tall figure walked into the Demon Subduing Hall, and then a voice that Sun Wukong felt was somewhat familiar rang out, "Master Zuo Shi called me, is there something happening in the lower world?"

Sun Wukong took a closer look and immediately shouted, "Oh?! Yellow Wind Monster?!"

The Great Sage Huang Feng turned his head and saw that it was Sun Wukong. He was shocked at first, and then he also shouted: "Sun Wukong?!"

Sun Wukong was shocked and asked Liu Yan, "Is he the chief steward of Dufeng?"

"Yes." Liu Yan nodded and said with a smile: "Great Sage, he is now a subordinate of your uncle, Yu Ji Zhenjun."

After saying that, Liu Yan said to the Great Sage Huang Feng: "General Manager Du Feng, the pilgrims are in trouble again in the lower world. Please go and lend a hand."

The Great Sage Huang Feng glanced at Sun Wukong, then bowed and said, "I obey your command."

After saying that, the Great Sage Huang Feng said to Sun Wukong: "Sun Wukong, let's go."

"What did you call me?" Sun Wukong asked with a smile.

The Great Sage Huang Feng asked, "Sun Wukong, could it be that you are called Bi Ma Wen?"

"Hey!" Sun Wukong said, "You rat, you're asking for a beating!" After saying that, he took only one step and appeared in front of the Great Sage Huangfeng.

The Great Sage Huang Feng was startled, and had no time to react, as Sun Wukong grabbed him by the collar of his neck and flew him out of Yuji Palace.

The Great Sage Huang Feng was held in the hand of Sun Wukong and was flying towards the lower world. While struggling, he raised his hand and offered a three-pronged steel fork and said, "Sun Wukong, don't go too far."

Sun Wukong laughed and said, "Why, are you going to release the Samadhi Divine Wind?"

Great Sage Huang Feng said, "I have this idea, but I'm afraid I'll blow you to death and it will be hard to explain to the True Lord."

Sun Wukong laughed, let go of the Great Sage Huang Feng, and said, "Little mouse, follow closely. I don't bear grudges and I love making friends. When we conquer the monster in the Flowing Sand River, I will treat you to a drink."

The Great Sage Huangfeng gritted his teeth, looked at Sun Wukong's back, and finally followed him on a cloud.
