Journey to the West: Please Call Me the White Bone Demon

After Yun Zhao finished speaking, the White Bone Demon immediately let out a soft laugh.

"What do we have in store? So you want me to pretend to be an ordinary person to deceive Tang Sanzang? Don't worry, although I only have a rudimentary understanding of transformation techniques, I have other methods."

After saying that, she suddenly scratched her face and instantly tore off her skin.

Before Yun Zhao could react, the White Bone Demon's appearance changed drastically.

She went from a young woman to a middle-aged man in an instant.

The skin that had been torn from the body was now lying on the ground, fully clothed, with its eyes closed and flesh clearly visible – it was clearly a corpse!

But how did they manage to do that?

Yun Zhao was startled, and then the White Bone Demon's voice rang out.

"How is my corpse-dissecting technique?"

Her voice had become rough, and it was no longer the clear and melodious voice of the young girl she once was.

Sure enough, the White Bone Demon in the original story was able to trick Tang Sanzang three times and even fake her death to escape in front of the Monkey King, so she must have some skills.

At least this corpse-dissecting technique is far superior to ordinary transformation methods.

Yun Zhao was stunned for a few seconds, then couldn't help but exclaim, "Wonderful, wonderful! Madam's ability to deceive everyone is truly amazing!"

"Of course!"

The White Bone Demon had somehow reverted to her youthful appearance, her fair neck held high, her expression smug.

"Yun Zhao, I understand what you mean. You want me to seduce Tang Sanzang and his disciples with my beauty, and when they are completely infatuated with me and even fighting over me, I will make my move and capture them all in one fell swoop!"

idiot!

Who told you to use seduction?

Yun Zhao cursed inwardly, his voice growing increasingly anxious: "Madam, you mustn't! Although Tang Sanzang is a mortal, he cannot be seduced by beauty, let alone his disciples!"

Of course, Zhu Bajie is an exception.

Yun Zhao silently added a sentence in his heart.

The White Bone Demon didn't take it seriously.

"With my stunning looks, how could they not be tempted?"

As she spoke, she actually undressed in front of Yun Zhao. Seeing the spring scenery before him, Yun Zhao's heart skipped a beat.

Putting everything else aside, the White Bone Demon's appearance is indeed exquisite, what a pity.

He sighed and quickly said, "Madam, please have some self-respect."

Upon hearing this, the White Bone Demon chuckled, her clothes instantly flying back onto her body. She sat back down on her bone seat, crossing her long, snow-white legs.

"Yun Zhao, do you think I'm pretty?"

"She is beautiful, but Tang Sanzang is a famous and virtuous monk. Beauty alone cannot seduce him." Yun Zhao admitted that her appearance was indeed beautiful, but unfortunately, beauty was the least effective tactic against Tang Sanzang.

As for Sun Wukong, let's not even talk about him. Back then, he only immobilized the seven fairies in the Peach Garden and did nothing else. A monkey like that could be tempted by beauty? It's better to believe he was Qin Shi Huang.

The same applies to Sha Wujing, who faces seven spider demons bathing in the original story.

When Pigsy learned that the monkeys had stolen their clothes, he was excited for the sight to behold, but Sandy's most frequent question was: "Brother Monkey, why didn't you kill them?"

You're telling me you're going to seduce this straight-laced guy? Don't be ridiculous.

In short, the only one in the pilgrimage team who couldn't control himself was Pigsy.

But as long as the monkey is still around, what's the point of tempting a Pigsy?

Yun Zhao thought for a moment, then continued, "Moreover, in this desolate wilderness, for Madam to appear disguised as such a beautiful young woman would seem quite abrupt. Even if she could fool Tang Sanzang, she wouldn't be able to fool his disciples!"

Hearing Yun Zhao's earnest words, the White Bone Demon angrily retorted, "If this won't work and that won't work, then we'll never get to eat Tang Sanzang's flesh!"

"As I just said, the only way to deal with Tang Sanzang and his disciples is through strategy. A high monk with a compassionate heart like him is unlikely to be moved by worldly beauty and money."

Therefore, what we need to do is not to tempt Tang Sanzang, but to create the image of an innocent victim.

???

The White Bone Demon was puzzled: "What do you mean? How does eating Tang Sanzang's flesh relate to innocence? And who are the victims?"

"Madam, please let me explain in detail." Yun Zhao explained, "The so-called innocence means that you cannot make your desire to eat Tang Sanzang's flesh very obvious."

On the contrary, we need to plant the seed in his heart: the mountains are dangerous, but I am a good person.

For example, it's strange for a beautifully dressed woman to appear in the wilderness, but it makes sense for a woman in coarse clothes to risk her life to gather herbs to treat a seriously ill relative.

Although the White Bone Demon wasn't very bright, Yun Zhao had broken down and explained all the knowledge to her in detail, which made her suddenly realize, "Not bad, not bad, and then what?"

"Hehe, Madam, do you still remember the scheme I mentioned at the beginning? You can first pretend to be a woman and use your touching story of treating your father's illness to arouse Tang Sanzang's sympathy, and then get closer to him."

As long as Tang Sanzang believes this explanation, regardless of what his disciples think, half the battle is won!

After a pause, Yun Zhao continued, "While getting close to Tang Sanzang, he intentionally or unintentionally revealed a desire for Tang Sanzang's flesh. He couldn't see it with his mortal eyes, but his eldest disciple, Sun Wukong, with his fiery eyes, could naturally detect the abnormality."

But Sun Wukong is fiery and passionate. Once he finds out that you, my lady, have impure motives, how can he tolerate it?

The moment he makes a move, you immediately use your corpse-dissolving technique to escape, leaving the corpse behind. You say, when Tang Sanzang watched an "innocent" girl go into the mountains to gather herbs, with her seriously ill father and anxious mother waiting at home, only to be beaten to death by his own disciple, who then claimed she was some kind of monster.

But the bodies on the ground are clearly those of ordinary people. Wouldn't this create conflict between master and disciple?

The White Bone Demon's eyes lit up as she listened. She felt that her seduction plan was nothing compared to what Yun Zhao had said, it was like children playing house.

"You little devil, how come you're always so wicked!"

Is this praising or criticizing oneself?

Yun Zhao muttered to himself, then said, "Madam, don't be in a hurry, this is just the beginning."

"What, there's more?"

The White Bone Demon felt that she had really recruited a strategist. The things she had just mentioned that she couldn't figure out no matter how hard she tried were only the beginning for Yun Zhao.

"Tell me quickly, what happens next?"

Even now, she probably doesn't realize that her attitude towards Yun Zhao has changed from giving orders to obeying.

"Naturally, we should further exploit Tang Sanzang's guilt and sense of remorse."

"Guilt?"

Another unfamiliar thing. The White Bone Demon noticed that this little demon always uttered some strange words. Although she couldn't understand them, she would immediately understand them after the other party explained them, and even find them incredibly apt!

"Exactly! For example, not long after Sun Wukong killed the 'innocent' girl, the anxious old mother went into the mountains to look for her daughter, 'coincidentally' encountered Tang Sanzang and his disciples, and 'coincidentally' saw her 'daughter's' corpse on the ground. What kind of scene do you think that would be?"
