I am a fairy in Journey to the West

Chapter 251: Gods and Buddhas Gather Together

Tianyun Valley is where the "Tianyun Zhenren" practiced in seclusion. He loved making friends, so he built a mountain pavilion in the valley where all immortal practitioners passing by can stay and rest.

Over time, Tianyun Valley became famous in Xiniu Hezhou. In addition, Zhenren Tianyun had friends in both Buddhism and Taoism, so some immortal cultivators who encountered difficulties often came here to seek refuge.

On this day, a group of monks in robes came to Tianyun Valley. Leading them was a young monk with handsome eyebrows and eyes, wearing a jade-like robe.

Behind this young monk were eighteen monks of different appearances. Taoist Tianyun only took a glance at them and his expression slightly stiffened.

Except for the young monk in front of him, he knew seven of the other eighteen people.

“Fellow Daoist Tianyun.” The seven monks bowed eleven times to Taoist Tianyun, who also bowed in return.

The young monk who was in the lead said, "I am Rama, a humble monk. Nice to meet the Immortal Tianyun."

Tianyun Zhenren returned the greeting and said, "Greetings to Master Rama."

Rama smiled and asked, "Excuse me, sir, is there any place to live in the valley?"

Tianyun Zhenren said: "The Jieqi Pavilion is full, and we only have the ordinary thatched pavilion. I wonder if it can be used?"

"Yes." Rama smiled and said, "We are not picky. You can make the arrangements as you see fit. A thatched cottage is enough."

"Okay." Tianyun Zhenren nodded, then called a boy and said, "Take the masters to Yaoguang Pavilion."

"Yes." The boy responded.

Rama bowed to Tianyun Zhenren and said, "Thank you, Zhenren."

Tian Yun Zhenren bowed in return and said with a smile: "The vegetarian food in the valley is still in the vegetarian banquet building. Three meals a day are served at the right time. If you masters want to enjoy the vegetarian food, just come on time."

"Okay." Rama nodded, then took out ten purple coins and placed them on the table in front of Tianyun Zhenren, and then went to Yaoguang Pavilion under the guidance of the boy.

After everyone moved into Yaoguang Pavilion, the boy said goodbye and left. Rama sat down with everyone and said, "My fellow Arhats, we are following the order of Mahavairocana Buddha to capture Jiutian Jinlong and others. Let's see where he is first."

The Eighteen Arhats nodded, and then Rama took out a string of purple-black prayer beads and started turning them in his hand.

After a moment, there was a "click" sound, and Rama's thumb, which was moving the rosary beads, stopped immediately. Then he looked down and saw that the rosary beads stopped at the "original position".

"This sir?" Rama's eyes were filled with surprise. "The Nine Heavens Golden Dragon is in this Tianyun Valley?"

The Eighteen Arhats were also shocked, and the Deer-Sitting Arhat was full of astonishment, "How could it be such a coincidence?"

The long-browed arhat smiled and said, "It is fate that you are destined to be captured by us."

"It's just that it's a little inconvenient here." said Arhat Subduing the Dragon.

The sitting arhat said: "When the time comes, hold back a little and fight quickly. Don't cause trouble for Tianyun Zhenren."

Upon hearing this, all the Arhats nodded and said, "Okay."

The Deer Arhat looked at Rama and asked, "What do you think, Venerable Rama?"

After Rama entered Buddhism, he was accepted as a disciple by Amitabha Buddha and achieved the status of "Arhat".

Rama said: "But right now we don't know where the Nine Heavens Golden Dragon lives."

"That's easy." The Tower-Bearing Arhat said, "It's almost the twilight hour. Let's go to the Banquet Hall to have a meal. If we're lucky, we'll be able to meet the Nine Heavens Golden Dragon in the Banquet Hall."

Everyone nodded when they heard this and said, "Good idea. The Nine Heavens Golden Dragon is hiding here. He must have taken a fancy to Tian Yun Zhenren's connections. If this is true, he should come to the vegetarian banquet building to have a vegetarian meal."

The long-browed arhat said, "You can try your luck. If you can't find it, you can think of other ways."

Everyone responded, "Okay."

At the same time, in the hut at the entrance of the valley, Tian Yun Zhenren looked at the six people and the dog in front of him and asked with a smile: "How many huts do you want, fellow Taoists?"

Kang Anyu said: "One room is enough."

"Good." Tianyun Zhenren nodded, then lowered his head to look at Xiaotian Dog and immediately praised: "Good dog, this dog is really well raised."

Roaring Sky Dog glanced at Master Tianyun, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.

Seeing this, Yao Gonglin asked, "How much purple money does it cost to live in seclusion here?"

Tian Yun Zhenren then turned his gaze away from Xiao Tian Dog, and said with a smile: "Ten purple coins, you can stay here for seven days."

"Okay." Yao Gonglin took out ten purple coins and handed them over. Tianyun Zhenren took the purple coins and ordered the boy to take Kang Anyu and others to the thatched cottage.

But Kang Anyu said, "Let's not go to the thatched cottage yet. We have been traveling for days and want to satisfy our craving for food."

“Hahaha.” Upon hearing this, Tianyun Zhenren laughed loudly and said, “That’s great. The vegetarian food in my Tianyun Valley is pretty good. You fellow Taoists can go and have a try.”

"Is it free?" Kang Anyu asked.

Tian Yun Zhenren said with a smile: "Of course not, but it has been counted as part of the ten purple coins."

The vegetarian banquet building is just a simple bamboo building. It is called a building but it actually has only two floors. The first floor is the largest and most spacious, and is also the place for dining. The second floor is smaller, and is where the vegetarian banquet is prepared.

"Go and bring a chair." After the six Meishan brothers sat down, Kang Anyu said to the little boy next to him. The little boy asked, "My Lords, are there not enough chairs?" He asked as he glanced at the six Meishan brothers sitting on the chairs.

Kang Anyu pointed at Xiaotian Dog, who was standing on a stool but couldn't sit down because the stool was too narrow, and said, "Can't you see that this Taoist friend can't sit down? Go and get a chair."

The little boy looked at Roaring Sky Dog in surprise, and then suddenly realized, "Oh, I see, Immortal, wait a moment."

Not long after, the little boy brought a wooden chair over to replace the stool, and Roaring Sky Dog immediately jumped onto the chair and sat down, which was just right.

"It's time to serve the food." Kang Anyu said, "More wine."

The little boy bowed and replied, "Yes." Then he turned and left.

At this moment, Zhang Boshi suddenly looked to the right front, where a group of monks were sitting, very conspicuous. Zhang Boshi took a closer look, then his face was slightly surprised, and he quickly pushed Kang Anyu and said, "Brother, look, aren't those the Eighteen Arhats?"

Upon hearing this, everyone present looked over, and even Roaring Sky Dog barked twice after taking a look.

Yao Gonglin turned around to look at Xiaotian Dog and said with a smile: "Even Daoist Xiaotian has noticed it."

"It really is the Eighteen Arhats." Kang Anyu asked in surprise, "Why are they here too?"

"Are you here specifically for the vegetarian banquet?" Li Huanzhang asked.

Just as the six Meishan brothers were observing the Eighteen Arhats, the Eighteen Arhats also sensed their gazes and turned around to look at them.

"They are the Six Monsters of Meishan." said Fu Hu Luohan.

Happy Arhat said with a smile on his face: "I didn't expect them to find their way here."

The thoughtful Arhat pondered, "How did they find this place so quickly?"

The Ear-Pickling Arhat said, "Erlang Shen must have come to Xiniu Hezhou in person."

The Arhat holding the bowl said, "Not really, right? Just to catch the Nine Heavens Golden Dragon and go back to make an elixir for Roaring Sky Dog? Is it necessary to go to such great lengths?"

The long-browed arhat said with deep eyes: "At least that's what the Fire Spirit Immortal said. As for Erlang Shen's purpose in capturing the Nine Heavens Golden Dragon, no one knows."

"Willn't this be troublesome?" Rama said, "Once they come, if Jiu Tian Jin Long and others show up later, a melee is inevitable."

The Sitting Deer Arhat sighed and said, "For now, I just hope that the Nine Heavens Golden Dragon and the others won't come to eat vegetarian food."

Everyone nodded slightly, then smiled and bowed to the six brothers of Meishan. The six brothers of Meishan did not know the purpose of the Eighteen Arhats' visit, so they smiled and returned the greeting.

At this time, the boys brought vegetarian food and vegetarian wine to the table. The two sides did not disturb each other and enjoyed the vegetarian food.

Midway through the meal, a voice suddenly rang out in the hall of the vegetarian banquet building: "Hurry up and bring a table of vegetarian food and vegetarian wine."

Rama and the Eighteen Arhats raised their heads and looked towards the door. The six Meishan brothers paused in their eating and then suddenly looked up.

Their eyes met and Yuan Ao was stunned. He saw the six Meishan brothers at first sight. At this moment, he wished he could slap himself ten times.

The six Meishan brothers were also stunned, but they reacted extremely quickly. Roaring Sky Dog even flew up and pounced towards Yuan Ao.

Kang Anyu immediately took out the crescent shovel and shouted, "Yuan Ao thief, where are you escaping to!" Then he rushed forward.

The other five people directly overturned the table, each took out their magic weapon, made hand gestures and rushed forward with Kang Anyu.

"Let's go!" Yuan Ao uttered the word 'let' and turned around and flew out of the banquet building.

Hunhuang Junze retreated while making hand seals. Two pale yellow fairy lights flashed in her eyes. The next moment, Xiaotian Dog, which pounced in front of her, suddenly let out a terrible dog bark, then fell straight to the ground, with a blood mark visible on its neck.

Roaring Sky Dog stood on the ground with its four legs spread out, its fur standing on end, its eyes fierce and mighty, and it was grinning at the air in front of it, as if there was another dog confronting it from a distance.

At the same time, Kang Anyu's crescent shovel and the spells and magic weapons of the other five people from Meishan also fell on Hunhuang Jun. Only a faint yellow fairy light was seen on Hunhuang Jun's body, and time seemed to have gone back at this moment.

The moment the weapons, magic treasures, and spells of the six Meishan brothers hit Hunhuang Jun, there was a sudden flash accompanied by the dim and old time, and a trace of confusion and distraction quickly appeared on the faces of the six Meishan brothers.

Afterwards, there was a sudden burst of fairy light and a loud bang was heard. The bodies of the six Meishan brothers were blown away in an instant, hitting the walls and pillars one by one, and fell to the ground.

At the moment when the six Meishan brothers were knocked away, eighteen Buddha lights flashed, and the eighteen Arhats were covered in golden light, surrounding Hunhuang Jun.

Rama stepped forward and said, "Please, all the venerables, capture this man. I will go after the Nine Heavens Golden Dragon."

The Arhats put their hands together and said in unison, "Okay."

After saying that, Rama was about to fly out of the Banquet Building, but he heard a loud noise from outside, and then a figure broke through the bamboo window of the Banquet Building, and fell to the floor of the Banquet Building with a "bang".

Everyone turned their heads and were stunned, because the one falling to the ground was the Nine-Sky Golden Dragon Yuan Ao who had just escaped.

Hun Huangjun was also stunned. He looked at Yuan Ao on the ground and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Yuan Ao covered his chest, pointed outside and said speechlessly: "Look at the place you chose, it's been bought by someone!"

Upon hearing this, Hunhuang Jun, Rama and the Eighteen Arhats turned their heads and looked outside the banquet building. They saw a fiery and beautiful figure walking in, followed by two extremely powerful and majestic gods, one carrying a broadsword on his shoulder and the other holding a steel fork.

The fiery red figure was none other than the Fire Spirit Immortal, and the other two were the Tiger Vanguard and the Yellow Wind Great Sage.
