I am a fairy in Journey to the West

Chapter 237: Identifying a Monk by His Paintings, Suppressing the Dragon Immortal

When Bao'er heard Tiger Vanguard say that he could not send them back to Southern Continent, her big eyes were filled with disappointment.

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Tiger Vanguard immediately smiled and said, "You don't have to be like this. I'll tell you a way to return to the Southern Continent."

"What method?" Baoer asked.

Tiger Vanguard said: "As long as you can capture Tang Monk, you can return to the Southern Continent."

Bao Er asked, "Who is Tang Monk?"

Hu Xianfeng immediately took out a blueprint, on which was a drawing of a monk with a handsome, dignified appearance and a compassionate face.

Tiger Vanguard pointed at the monk and said, "This is Tang Monk, the monk who came from the Tang Dynasty in the East and is going to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures."

Baoer stared at the portrait of Tang Monk for a long time, then asked in confusion: "Why can we return to Southern Continent if we capture him? What's the connection?"

Tiger Pioneer said mysteriously: "Of course there is a connection, but I can't tell you."

"Why can't I say it?" Baoer still didn't understand.

Tiger Vanguard said: "I can't tell you, anyway, if you catch Tang Monk, you can go back to Jambu Continent. I am the mountain god, would your grandfather, the mountain god, lie to you?"

"That's right." Hearing this, a hint of hesitation appeared on Baoer's little face.

Tiger Vanguard rolled up the portrait, handed it to Bao'er and said, "This portrait is for you. I'm leaving now. If you want to return to Jambu Continent, you must capture Tang Monk as soon as possible."

Bao Er said, "Can we not catch Tang Monk?"

"Of course you can." Tiger Vanguard said with a smile, "But there's a peacock in the sky blocking you, so you definitely can't fly back. If you leave, it will take at least three to five years to get from here to the Southern Continent."

When Bao Er heard this, his face suddenly changed slightly and he asked, "Where is Tang Seng? If we can't find him in three to five years, isn't it the same?"

Tiger Vanguard smiled and pointed ahead, saying, "You guys go wait in Yalong Mountain. In half a year at most, Tang Monk will pass by this area."

"Oh." Baoer looked at Tiger Vanguard after hearing this, and then said, "Then can we go to your house, Grandpa Mountain God, and live there for half a year?"

The smile on Tiger Vanguard's face froze instantly, and he suddenly raised his hand and pointed, "Look what that is?"

Baoer turned his head and looked, but saw nothing there except a barren mountain and forest.

"Grandpa Mountain God, there is nothing over there, mountain." When Baoer turned around, Tiger Pioneer was gone.

Baoer took two steps forward, looking around and calling out, "Grandpa Mountain God?"

After searching for a long time without finding Tiger Vanguard, Hong Xian, who was not far away, had opened her eyes. The four blood holes on her body had healed. Except for her pale complexion and weak breath, there was nothing wrong with her.

"Baoer, who are you looking for?" Hong Xian stood up and asked.

When Baoer heard Hongxian's voice, his face lit up with joy, and he quickly ran over and asked, "Hongxian, are you okay?"

"It's a little better." Hong Xian said, "Who are you calling Grandpa Mountain God?"

Baoer said, "It was the old man Tiger from before. He turned out to be a mountain god! The big peacock was scared away by him."

"Scary away?" Hong Xian was extremely surprised. "What kind of mountain god is so powerful?"

Baoer bit his finger and said, "Hmm, it seems to be some Lingtai Mountain God."

"Oh, never heard of it." Hong Xian shook her head.

Baoer then repeated what Tiger Vanguard had said to Hongxian, and finally asked, "Hongxian, do you think we should listen to the Mountain God and capture Tang Monk? Or should we walk back to the Southern Continent slowly by ourselves?"

Hong Xian asked, "Where is the portrait? Show it to me."

Baoer nodded and immediately unfolded the portrait. Hongxian took one look and said, "This monk looks delicate and gentle, so he must be easy to catch. We can't get back in time anyway, so why don't we wait here for half a year and see what happens after we catch this Tang Monk."

"Okay." Baoer nodded and said, "Then we will go to Yalong Mountain and wait for half a year."

Hong Xian also nodded, and then the two of them walked all the way to Yalong Mountain. At this time, a black shadow flashed in the sky. Hong Xian was startled and said, "Here he comes again."

Baoer looked up and saw the golden peacock appeared in the sky again.

Baoer said anxiously: "Quick, take out your clay figurine before you get scared silly."

Without Baoer's reminder, Hong Xian immediately took out four clay figures this time, and then performed the "Earth-Kneading Method". The four clay figures immediately went in one direction each, and then squatted on the ground as motionless as a mountain.

'Om'

There was a slight ripple in the void, and the next moment four air walls rose from four directions and quickly formed a circle, covering Baoer and Hong Xian.

Kong Ling's huge body swooped down rapidly, without noticing the appearance of the air wall at all.

The moment his huge, sharp claws landed on Hong Xian and Baoer's heads, it suddenly seemed as if it was obstructed by something. The two giant claws paused abruptly, and then the entire huge body instantly slammed down heavily.

'boom'

The mountains and rivers within a thousand miles were shaking violently, especially the mountain where Baoer and Hongxian were, where more than a dozen huge cracks appeared. For a moment, the mountains collapsed, rocks flew, and the grass and trees were broken.

As for Kong Ling, he slammed heavily on the air wall with tremendous force, causing his flesh to burst and blood to splatter, and he lost half his life on the spot.

Kong Ling retracted his peacock body and turned into a human, half-kneeling on the ground groaning, with blood oozing out from every part of his body.

At this time, several elixirs flew out of Kong Ling's sleeves and fell into his mouth. Kong Ling swallowed them in one gulp. After a moment, he forced himself to stand up unsteadily. He looked at the air in front of him with a hint of astonishment, then reached out his hand and touched it, and found that there was an invisible wall.

"What is this?" Kong Ling muttered to himself as he touched the air wall in front of him.

Seeing Kong Ling being hit so badly, Baoer's nervous heart immediately relaxed and said proudly: "This is an air wall! Humph, you can't get in, right?"

"Air Wall" Kong Ling vomited a mouthful of blood and said, "Damn it, air can also become a wall?"

Hong Xian did not answer Kong Ling's question, but asked him: "Why did you arrest me?"

Kong Ling looked at Hong Xian and grinned, "Grandpa, I'm tired of eating vegetarian food. I want to eat a dragon to start my meal."

"Do you still want to eat me now?" Hong Xian glanced at the four clay figures, then said to Kong Ling.

Kong Ling glanced at the four clay figures and suddenly understood, "This air wall must be made by these clay figures. Then I will destroy these clay figures first." After saying that, Kong Ling's bloody body suddenly took a step back, then he raised his hand and shot out a dozen golden lights.

I saw the dozen or so golden lights split into four strands, each shooting towards a clay figure.

"Boom," "Boom," "Boom," four more loud noises rang out, and the earth began to shake violently again.

An unknown amount of time had passed, but as the shaking of the ground stopped, the four clay figures remained intact, still sitting firmly there.

Kong Ling's face changed when he saw this scene. He didn't expect that these clay figures were also protected by the so-called "air wall".

Hong Xian and Baoer, who were originally a little worried, now breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

"Hahaha." Baoer said with a smile: "You big peacock, you have no tricks left, right?"

Kong Ling's face was extremely gloomy. He snorted coldly, his eyes swept over Hong Xian and Bao Er, and then said, "Don't be complacent, I will keep an eye on you."

After he finished speaking, Kong Ling's body flashed with fairy light, and he immediately soared into the air and disappeared into the clouds again.

Seeing Kong Ling leave, Baoer said, "He will definitely not come back in a short time this time. Let's go."

Hong Xian said vigilantly, "Better be careful." As she spoke, she did not take back the clay figures, but asked them to stand up and line up in four directions, front, back, left and right, to follow them.

In this way, as long as Kong Ling dares to come again, these clay figures can immediately form an air wall for defense.

In this way, the two of them walked for more than 300 miles and finally arrived at Yalong Mountain. However, they were discovered by a group of little monsters as soon as they entered the mountain.

"Old Ancestor." A little demon entered the Yalong Cave and reported to the Yalong Immortal who was dozing off above him, "Old Ancestor, two little kids have come to the mountain. We have learned that they are the two kids that the Golden Peacock King is chasing after."

The sleepy Yalong Immortal perked up upon hearing this and asked, "Just now, the Golden Peacock King caused the mountains and rivers to boil and the earth to shake, just to catch them?"

"My dear ancestor, you are absolutely right. These two kids are quite capable. I don't know what means they used, but they managed to defeat the Peacock King and drive him away." said the little demon.

The Dragon-Suppressing Immortal sat up straight, and immediately called a demon general and ordered, "Take a few people to investigate the details of those two kids."

The demon general sang a nod and said, "As you command."

Watching the demon general leaving with a group of little demons, Yalong Daxian couldn't help but think: "The Golden Peacock King is the mount of the Buddha Mother Peacock Great Bright King Bodhisattva. Even he is interested in these two kids. Could it be that they are some kind of natural treasures that have turned into spirits?"

Thinking of this, the Immortal Yalong was moved and said, "I have been enlightened for tens of thousands of years. Now I am old and weak, and my life span is coming to an end. If I can obtain natural treasures to extend my life, wouldn't it be wonderful?"

After hearing what the Dragon-Suppressing Immortal said, a little demon next to him said, "Old Ancestor, I heard that eating the flesh of the Monkey King and Tang Sanzang can also make one immortal."

The Dragon-Suppressing Immortal said, "I have heard from my two godsons that the Great Sage Equaling Heaven is a person who is not easy to mess with. He is someone who can cause havoc in the Heavenly Palace, and we cannot afford to mess with him."

When the little demon heard this, he couldn't help but ask, "What about Tang Sanzang?"

The Dragon-Suppressing Immortal said, "It is said that Tang Sanzang is the reincarnation of Buddha's second disciple, Jin Chanzi. If one can eat his flesh, one can indeed achieve immortality. But we don't know where Tang Sanzang is, and the Buddhist sect is very powerful. How can we attack him unless we have no other choice?"

After saying that, Yalong Daxian said with a smile: "Let me first see what these two kids are like. I haven't had meat for a long time."

As they were speaking, the demon general sent by the Immortal Yalong had already led a team of little demons to block the way of Hong Xian and Baoer.

Hong Xian and Bao Er, who had already encountered Kong Ling, did not react at all to the situation before them. They just asked, "What do you want to do?"

The demon general came forward with a knife in hand and said, "Nothing to do, you have entered my king's territory, why don't you quickly announce your names."

Baoer asked, "Who is your king?"

The demon general said: "My king is the master of the Dragon-Suppressing Cave in Dragon-Suppressing Mountain, and he is the Dragon-Suppressing Immortal."

"The Dragon-Suppressing Immortal? What a crazy name." Hong Xian said in a cold tone.

Bao Er asked curiously, "Is there really a dragon horse in this mountain? Can your king really suppress a dragon? What kind of dragon can he suppress?"

The demon general suddenly paused. It was obvious that this question was difficult for him to answer, because the mountain was not called Yalong Mountain because the Yalong Immortal subdued a dragon here. Instead, this place was called Yalong Mountain because it was called Yalong Mountain.

"Why do you have so many questions, little girl?" The demon general reprimanded Bao'er and said, "Stop talking nonsense and tell me your name."

Baoer said with an unhappy face: "Who are you talking about, little yellow-haired girl? Listen carefully, I am the oil-adding boy of Lingtai Taoist Temple, Shu Baoer."

"This person, like me, is also a boy who adds oil to the Lingtai Taoist Palace, Hong Xian!" Baoer said, pointing at Hong Xian.

The demon general laughed and said, "I thought they were some innocent fairies, but they turned out to be two little boys adding oil to the temple, and they were adding oil to a small Taoist temple that no one had even heard of."

"Hahaha." The monsters immediately burst into laughter.

Bao Er was furious and immediately said to Hong Xian, "Hong Xian, let the clay man sit down and hold the line for me. I will go and teach these rude guys a lesson."

"Yeah." Hong Xian nodded, and immediately asked the four clay figures to sit down and form an air wall, and then cast a mark on Baoer, allowing her to pass through the air wall freely.

After doing all this, Hong Xian looked at Bao Er and said, "Okay."

Baoer immediately rushed out with the bone sword. Seeing Baoer rushing over with the sword, the demon general was even more disdainful. He raised his big knife and said, "Go on, little guys. Capture these two little kids and bring them back for a reward."

"Yes." The little demons responded and then rushed towards Baoer.

Soon the monsters surrounded Bao'er and attacked her from all directions. However, Bao'er used the "Spiritual Movement Method" to avoid all attacks. Her small figure moved among the monsters, and the bone sword in her hand was swung from time to time, emitting cold sword energy.

'Whoosh' 'whoosh' 'whoosh'

As sword energy flew out and pierced into the bodies of the little demons, regardless of whether they were fatal or not, the moment the sword energy entered their bodies, the little demons all let out a cry of pain, and then collapsed to the ground with all their muscles and bones.

In just one encounter, more than twenty little demons were knocked to the ground by Baoer with just one sword, leaving the demon general dumbfounded.

The next moment, a sword flashed before his eyes, and a sword energy flew towards the demon general.

The demon general was startled and hurriedly raised his sword to block, but there was only a "bang" sound, and the sword in his hand was immediately shattered by the sword energy.

Then the demon general felt a sharp pain in his arm. He cried out in pain and looked down, only to see that the sword energy had penetrated through his right arm, bursting into a ball of blood.

The next moment, the demon general felt his muscles and bones go numb, his tendons loose and his bones softened. Then he collapsed to the ground. Except for his thoughts which were still moving, his body was numb and limp, without any feeling at all.
