I am a fairy in Journey to the West

Chapter 91 Yang Mei faces the calamity, Zhuang Yan leaves

The old immortal Yang Mei fled all the way back to his residence in Wu Bin Town. He pushed open the door of the alchemy room and saw his disciple sleeping in front of the alchemy furnace with a fan in his arms.

"Liu Jin, hurry up." Immortal Yang Mei stepped forward, grabbed his disciple and rushed out of the alchemy room.

The sleeping girl Liu Jin was startled awake and hurriedly grabbed Yang Mei's arm and asked, "Master, what happened?"

The immortal Yang Mei said, "Something bad has happened. Sun Wukong has escaped from under the Five Finger Mountain and has returned to the Flower-Fruit Mountain."

"What?! Sun Wukong is coming out?" Liu Jin was also surprised, but she quickly reacted and said, "Master, that's not right, stop now."

Hearing this, Yang Mei stopped and turned back to ask Liu Jin, "What's wrong?"

Liu Jin said, "Sun Wukong was imprisoned under the Five Elements Mountain by the Buddha Tathagata. He has not escaped for several months. How could he suddenly escape today?"

Immortal Yang Mei was stunned for a moment, then he looked at Liu Jin, and his originally frightened heart immediately calmed down.

"Master, could it be that someone is impersonating Sun Wukong? You can ask Lingguan Youyi to ask." Liu Jin said.

Immortal Yang Mei quickly calmed down and said to Liu Jin, "What you said makes sense."

So the immortal Yang Mei immediately set up the incense table, wrote the taboo name of the deity You Yi Lingguan, then lit a stick of incense and began to invite You Yi Lingguan to appear.

I saw green smoke rising up, and in less than a moment a divine light appeared, and the next moment the green smoke began to gather into a divine shadow.

Soon the divine shadows gathered together, and a divine voice came over: "Great Immortal Yangmei? Why are you calling me?"

The old immortal Yang Mei bowed and said, "I would like to ask the spiritual officer You Yi to show me my image. I would like to ask the spiritual officer a question."

You Yi Lingguan said, "Excuse me, Immortal."

The immortal Yang Mei asked, "Excuse me, where is Sun Wukong now?"

After Immortal Yang Mei finished speaking, he clearly felt that the other party seemed to pause for a moment, but after a moment, Lingguan Youyi said: "I visited the four directions today and saw that Sun Wukong was still suppressed under the Five Finger Mountain."

Hearing this, Immortal Yangmei immediately breathed a sigh of relief. As expected, his disciple was indeed the smartest.

At this time, You Yi Lingguan asked, "Is this the only thing you want to ask, Great Immortal?"

Immortal Yang Mei reacted and quickly took out a thousand purple coins and placed them on the altar. He bowed and smiled and said, "Thank you, Spirit Officer. I only ask this one question."

When You Yi Lingguan saw the 1,000 purple coins, he immediately smiled and said, "You are too polite, Immortal. In that case, I will continue to patrol the four directions."

After saying this, You Yi Lingguan's manifested body immediately dissipated and then disappeared, along with it, the one thousand purple coins also disappeared.

Afterwards, Immortal Yang Mei removed the altar and returned to Wu Bin Town with Liu Jin. Along the way, he kept praising Liu Jin and said, "My disciple, you are really smart. I was almost deceived by someone."

Liu Jin looked at his master and said with a smile: "Master, you have done something wrong. You are too afraid of ghosts knocking on the door."

The Immortal Yang Mei sighed and said, "Yes, I am indeed doing something wrong right now. Don't learn from me in the future."

As they were talking, the master and the disciple returned to the alchemy room, only to see that the fire in the alchemy furnace was blazing. Immortal Yang Mei hurried forward to take a look, and saw that a round, red elixir had appeared in the alchemy furnace.

The old immortal Yang Mei was overjoyed, and hurriedly turned around and said, "Disciple, the elixir is ready! Quick, take the elixir!"

Liu Jin's eyes lit up. She had been abandoned since she was a child. It was the immortal Yang Mei who rescued her from the human world and brought her back to be his disciple.

Therefore, in her eyes, the Immortal Yangmei is both a master and a father, and the Immortal Yangmei has always raised her as his daughter, and the relationship between the master and disciple is extremely deep.

Therefore, when the Immortal Yang Mei hunted the monkey and refined the elixir this time, she also helped with all her heart and soul. Now that she saw the elixir was successful, she was naturally very happy.

Liu Jin quickly took out a red gourd from his body, and then followed the immortal Yang Mei to get the elixir.

Immortal Yang Mei made a magic gesture, and with a clang, the lid of the alchemy furnace flew up immediately.

At this moment, the elixir suddenly flew up and hit the top of the alchemy furnace with a "bang". The next moment, the alchemy furnace immediately tilted towards the immortal Yang Mei.

Immortal Yang Mei was not in a hurry. He stretched out his hand and sent out a ray of immortal light to support the alchemy furnace. Then, with a loud 'bang', the ray of immortal light was instantly crushed by the tilted alchemy furnace.

Immortal Yang Mei realized then that something was wrong and hurriedly dodged to the side. However, his legs suddenly went soft and he could not dodge or avoid it. The alchemy furnace came down with a loud bang and pinned Immortal Yang Mei underneath.

A burst of white smoke rose up with a "hiss", and soon filled the entire alchemy room. Immortal Yang Mei didn't even make a groan as his body was directly burned into a pile of ashes by the fire that poured out of the alchemy furnace.

"Master!" Liu Jin screamed and rushed forward to push the furnace open, but he saw no Master on the ground, only a pile of ashes.

Liu Jin breathed a sigh of relief and immediately looked around, finally seeing his master in front of him on the left.

Immortal Yangmei stood there looking at Liujin, but Liujin stood up and ran towards Immortal Yangmei, but he didn't pay attention to his feet and stepped on the pile of "ashes" with one foot, spilling them everywhere.

Immortal Yangmei stroked his forehead gently, and at this time Liujin had already rushed over and reached out to grab Immortal Yangmei's hand, but unexpectedly grabbed nothing.

Liu Jin was stunned in the place. After a long time, he reacted and looked at the master in front of him and said, "Master. You."

"It's obvious that my master is dead." Yang Mei said helplessly, "It's really a calamity. Once the calamity comes, a pill furnace can kill a golden immortal."

The alchemy furnace weighing even six pounds could be easily opened with one palm, and one would not be burned by the fire inside.

But the Golden Immortal Yangmei couldn't escape and was directly pressed underneath and burned to ashes by the fire.

When he looked towards the alchemy furnace again, the elixir had disappeared. It was obvious that it was an illusion.

At this moment, Liu Jin suddenly turned around and looked at the scattered ashes and said, "Master, could it be..."

The Immortal Yang Mei nodded and said, "It's my ashes."

Liu Jin burst into tears immediately and turned around to use her magic power to collect the ashes. After she finished collecting the ashes, she turned around and saw that there were two more ghosts beside the immortal Yang Mei.

Those were the Black and White Impermanence. For an immortal as great as Yang Mei Lao Xian, ordinary ghost messengers could not restrain his spirit. The Black and White Impermanence restrained Yang Mei Lao Xian's spirit and walked directly outside. Liu Jin collected his master's ashes and quickly chased out, blocking the Black and White Impermanence.

Immortal Yang Mei suddenly understood. He quickly said to Liu Jin, "Liu Jin, don't offend Ghost Commander. Your fate has come. It is natural for you to die now. Wait for your reincarnation. We will meet again on the immortal road in the future."

Liu Jin wiped his tears and said, "Master, if you leave, what should I do?"

The old immortal Yang Mei smiled and said, "You are now a Xuanxian, and you don't have the power of karma. It's safe to practice in the cave. You can go back to Liuzhou Daochang. I have left all my life treasures in the Daochang."

Liu Jin said again: "But the ocean is so vast, how can I go back?"

When Immortal Yang Mei heard this, he was a little embarrassed. Liuzhou was one of the ten continents, including the ten continents and three islands. It was separated from the four major continents by the infinite ocean. With six pounds of Taoism, it was no problem to travel around the four seas, but it was more difficult to cross the infinite ocean.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. Immortal Yang Mei was puzzled for a moment, and then he called out, "Lord Lingtai? Is that you?"

Zhuang Yan heard someone calling him, and he quickly looked up and around. Immortal Yang Mei waved and said, "This way, Lord Lingtai, this way."

Zhuang Yan soon spotted Immortal Yang Mei and walked over immediately.

Black and White Impermanence are the Yin Marshals of the Underworld and are sixth-rank gods. When they saw Zhuang Yan, they immediately bowed and said, "Greetings to the Lord of the Spiritual Platform."

Zhuang Yan bowed in return. At this time, the immortal Yang Mei bowed to Zhuang Yan and said, "Lord Lingtai, I am Yang Mei." Liu Jin also followed his master and saluted Zhuang Yan.

"So it's the Immortal Yang Mei?!" Zhuang Yan was surprised and quickly returned the greeting, saying, "My apologies."

Yang Mei Daxian asked, "Lord Lingtai, why are you here?"

"Me?" Zhuang Yan heard this and then smiled and said, "I just happened to be passing by here."

However, in reality, the elixir that knocked over the alchemy furnace was transformed by Zhuang Yan, who came to help Yang Mei cope with the calamity.

As he spoke, Zhuang Yan looked at the Black and White Impermanence and the Yangmei Immortal and said, "Great Immortal, do you know him?"

"I don't know him." Hei Wuchang said, "We are here to capture souls."

Bai Wuchang smiled and said, "We really want to meet Lingtai Shenjun."

Yang Mei shook his head and said, "My fate has come. I should die today, but I can't bear to see my disciple wandering in the human world. How about asking Lingtai Shenjun to do me a favor?"

Zhuang Yan said, "Please speak, Immortal."

The old immortal Yang Mei said, "Please ask the God to send my little disciple to the Fang Yu Yuan of Tai Xuan Zhen Mansion and ask Fang Yu Yuan to send her back to Liuzhou Daochang. Is that okay?"

Zhuang Yan smiled and said, "It's a small matter. Great Immortal, just go ahead and I will send your disciple to Taixuan Zhenfu on the way."

"Thank you very much." Immortal Yangmei thanked him and then instructed Liujin on some things. Liujin just nodded in agreement while crying.

Afterwards, Black and White Impermanence took Immortal Yang Mei away. If Immortal Yang Mei was still alive, Black and White Impermanence would definitely be very respectful to him.

But he is dead now, and now he is under the jurisdiction of the underworld. Naturally, the Black and White Impermanence will not treat him well.

Seeing his master and the Black and White Impermanence disappear between the living and the dead, Liu Jin burst into tears.

Zhuang Yan looked at Liu Jin who was squatting on the ground and crying, and said with a smile: "You cry first, and when you've cried enough, call me and I'll take you to Taixuan Zhenfu."

Liu Jin was caught in a choke when he heard this, raised his head and looked at Zhuang Yan, then stopped crying immediately, then bowed and said, "Thank you, Lord Lingtai, let's go to Taixuan Zhenfu, okay?"

Zhuang Yan smiled faintly and looked around. Seeing that no mortal was passing by, he rode on the cloud and took Liu Jin to the first level of heaven and arrived at Taixuan Zhenfu.

After entering Taixuan Zhenfu, Zhuang Yan brought Liu Jin to Fangyuyuan, which was in charge of the "Ten Continents and Three Islands". Therefore, Liu Jin asked Fangyuyuan to send her back to Liuzhou in the name of her master, the immortal Yangmei.

Fang Yuyuan would naturally not refuse this, because the old immortal Yang Mei had the right to open a Taoist temple in Liuzhou, and although he was now facing a calamity, it was only natural for his disciple to inherit the Taoist temple.

The people from Fangyuyuan asked Liujin to wait here, and a Tianzhou would take her back to Liuzhou after an hour.

"Okay, the matter is settled. I'm leaving now." Zhuang Yan said to Liu Jin.

Liu Jin turned around and bowed to Zhuang Yan, saying, "Thank you, Lord Lingtai, for sending me here."

Zhuang Yan waved his hand and asked in surprise, "You said your name is Liu Jin? That's a strange name."

When Liu Jin heard this, his eyes turned red again and he said, "When my master picked me up from the human world, I weighed only six pounds, so my master named me Liu Jin."

Zhuang Yan smiled slightly and said, "It's a little strange, but it's a good name. Okay, Liu Jin, I wish you a safe journey."

Liu Jin bowed again and said, "Thank you, Lord Lingtai."

Afterwards, Zhuang Yan left Fang Yu Yuan and went back to the Flower-Fruit Mountain. The long-backed ape and the red-butted horse monkey had already woken up and seemed a little embarrassed to see Zhuang Yan.

They felt that they had become immortals and had mastered the highest level of skills, but they were still no match for the old immortal, and they felt a little sorry for Zhuang Yan.

Zhuang Yan laughed and said, "You have only been immortal for a few days, while the old immortal has been practicing for countless epochs. It is impossible for you to beat him."

Afterwards, Zhuang Yan stayed in Huaguo Mountain for about half a year. During this half year, all the immortals who came to Huaguo Mountain in search of elixirs were sent away one by one by Zhuang Yan.

Those who were destined to be calamities were sent to face them, and those who were not destined to be calamities were made to understand that there was no profit to be made in the Flower-Fruit Mountain and that there were no elixirs at all.

As time went by, the Flower-Fruit Mountain was gradually forgotten by people. In addition, the cultivation of the Tongbei Monkey and the Red-butted Horse Monkey became more and more advanced, so Zhuang Yan knew that it was time for him to leave.

So one morning half a year later, when the Tongbei Monkey and the Red-butted Horse Monkey came to pay their respects to Zhuang Yan as usual, they found that Zhuang Yan had already left.

The Tongbei Ape and the Red-butt Horse Monkey hurriedly left the cave, and then gathered the other monkeys to bow and worship towards the west. They then set up an altar for Zhuang Yan in the Flower-Fruit Mountain, and offered incense and tributes to him every day.
