Chapter 579: Badger Woman
At the end of the first battle of Pingdingshan, Li Wei had thought that the plot of the Bull Demon King and the Jade Face Princess getting married might not have happened yet. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Now it seems that this is indeed the case.
Is there any opportunity for Li Wei to change this change?
My mind raced around, but I didn't come to a conclusion.
"The top priority is to find the Bull Demon King." Li Wei put aside his cranky thoughts and asked about the coordinates of the blue wave pool of the chaotic rocky mountain.
But Princess Iron Fan didn't pay attention to Li Wei anymore.
It's only 10 o'clock, why do people treat you as a good friend and talk slowly?
"Let's go to the Fire Cloud Cave together, we don't have to wait for that dead ghost." Princess Iron Fan took Fan Lihua's hand and walked out.
Only please move an iron fan princess, Li Wei is really unwilling to leave like this.
The scene in the copy is vivid, if there is only the Iron Fan Princess and the Red Child, it is difficult to compete with the combination of Guanyin and the scripture learner.
What's more, the number of players on one side is higher.
At the very least, let's find the Bull Demon King.
"Iron Fan Fairy, can you leave the letter of the red child, I'll take it to the Bull Demon King." Li Wei hurriedly said.
"Where do you go to find it?" Princess Iron Fan looked suspicious.
"Well, I'll be waiting for him in this hole." Li Wei hurriedly changed his words.
Princess Iron Fan thought about it and made sense, so she left a letter.
Originally, this letter was written by Red Boy to his parents, and the task has not been completed yet.
After Princess Iron Fan and Fan Lihua left, Li Wei looked around and activated the teleportation array, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Now I can return to the Fire Cloud Cave at any time, and I am not so nervous.
Are you really waiting in the cave for the Bull Demon King to come back?
There's no need for that.
Let's go to the Moyun Cave of Jilei Mountain.
To say that the terrain of the main plot and the four goblin dungeons is still relatively similar, but among the four goblins, the system uses the teleportation function, so Li Wei is not clear about the flight route.
But there's one thing not to forget.
The old grandmother of Zhulong Mountain, that is, the old mother of the Jade Immortal, said that she was going to Moyun Cave.
NPCs, who have 20 points of affection with Li Wei, specifically mentioned this location, almost telling Li Wei that they could go to Moyun Cave to find her when they had time.
Therefore, Li Wei's taskbar is clearly marked with the coordinates of Moyun Cave.
In fact, even if there are no coordinates, Li Wei will look for it, because he is familiar with the original work.
In "Journey to the West", it is clearly stated that the Basho Cave of Cuiyun Mountain of Princess Iron Fan is in the southwest of Huoshan Mountain, about 1,4560 miles back and forth.
And the Moyun Cave of Jilei Mountain of the Jade-faced Princess is more than 3,000 miles south of the Flame Mountain.
As long as you draw a triangle on the paper, it is easy to figure out the route from Cuiyun Mountain to Jilei Mountain, especially Li Wei's mount can fly, and he is not afraid of getting lost on the ground.
Li Wei flew to the southeast, and in about ten minutes, he came to Jilei Mountain.
Princess Jade likes to go to the mountains, and as soon as Li Wei arrived, she saw it.
"Who are you looking for?" The jade-faced princess looked at Li Wei and frowned.
Li Wei carefully glanced at her eyes, a little relieved.
There was no hatred in those charming eyes, indicating that Li Wei killed her Liang Zi in the copy and did not bring it to the main plot.
The system is more intimate.
Perhaps, Li Wei's possession of fox fur also offsets this hatred.
Of course, NPCs themselves are quite good at acting, and they can't be taken lightly.
"Well, is the Bull Demon King here?" Li Wei said tentatively.
"I've heard of him, but you're in the wrong place." The jade-faced princess pouted.
"Oh, it's okay, then I'll ask to see the old mother of the Jade Fairy." Li Weidao.
The jade-faced princess looked at Li Wei again, and was a little surprised, but still took him back to the cave.
The Jade Immortal Old Mother and the Nine-Tailed Fox King of the Great Sage of Immortal Gu are both in the cave, looking at the appearance of the Nine-Tailed Fox King, the interest is not very high, and it is estimated that the courtship has not been successful.
Li Wei casually said a few words, and directly mentioned the matter of the red boy to see what reaction it could trigger.
"The son of the Bull Demon King arrested Tang Seng? God help me! "The eyes of the old mother of the jade fairy are **.
The Nine-Tailed Fox King raised his eyebrows: "Brother Pingtian is the first line of the old mother, and the old mother is not allied with the Buddhist Sect?" Oh, I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about the old mother of Lishan. ”
The old mother of Yuxian nodded: "Yes, Lishan introduced the sworn sister Iron Fan Princess to the Bull Demon King, and the two families are close to each other, and this relationship is very close." ”
"But." The Jade Immortal Old Mother sneered again, "The Buddha Sect has an alliance with Lishan? Not necessarily, they are just using each other, and the relationship between them is very unreliable! ”
The jade-faced princess was beside her, and her silver teeth bit lightly, revealing obvious hatred.
Long live her father, the Fox King, died at the hands of the old mother of Lishan and the three great bodhisattvas of Buddhism!
The Nine-Tailed Fox King's expression was a little complicated, because he also belonged to the Lishan clan before.
Although out of respect for his predecessors, he temporarily stood on the side of the Jade Immortal Old Mother, it did not mean that he really wanted to completely break away from the Lishan system.
"I think this matter may just be a misunderstanding, the red boy doesn't know that his parents have this indirect relationship with Buddhism." The Nine-Tailed Fox King sighed.
The fox clan is really smart, and he actually told the truth.
In "Journey to the West", the red boy caught Tang Seng and really didn't receive any instructions from his parents, which was completely a disaster caused by the lawlessness of a bear child.
Even the people of the Buddhist sect, in the original plan, probably did not count the red child as one of the calamities.
When Guanyin went to Chang'an, the red boy was not necessarily in the Red Cloud Cave.
"Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, I'm just taking this opportunity to divide them!" After the strength of the Jade Immortal Old Mother was restored, and after the inner demon was unraveled, her aura was completely different.
Li Wei was a little dumbfounded, this was not what he wanted to see.
"It's not a wise move to offend Lishan, Buddha Sect and Bull Demon King at the same time." Li Wei persuaded.
The old mother of Yuxian smiled: "Who said that I would offend them, I still plan to get close to them." ”
After speaking, the old mother's eyes fell on Princess Jade-faced: "Niece Xian, I mentioned your family affairs before, but now it has been settled." ”
The jade-faced princess blushed slightly: "I don't want to marry yet." ”
The old mother of the jade fairy said: "The great property left by the Fox King of 10,000 years must always be guarded by a male. ”
The Nine-Tailed Fox King hurriedly straightened his waist and made a majestic spirit.
"You have been filial piety for three years, and you can't delay this flower-like age any longer." The old mother of the jade fairy said again.
Speaking of which, I probably miss her wasted youth again, and her face is a little lonely.
"It's all up to the old mother." Princess Jade replied shyly.
"Call the badger." The old mother of the jade fairy smiled and nodded, and clapped her hands.
A chubby old woman came out of the depths of the cave, her little eyes shining.
"Badger woman?" Li Wei's spirits suddenly lifted.
It's not the first time he's seen characters in the main plot who don't belong to the novel "Journey to the West".
And the appearance of the badger woman was also expected by him.
But he still felt quite excited.
Because this witch can be said to be an extremely important role in the history of Journey to the West.
Wu Changling of the Yuan Dynasty may be the first writer to put the story of learning scriptures on the stage, including the title of "Journey to the West", which comes from him.
Around 1310, in order to compete with Wang Shifu's "The Legend of the West Chamber", Wu Changling wrote the story of Xuanzang and the monkey in the script into a miscellaneous script, and named it after "The Legend of the West Chamber", and played against the stage in a dignified manner.
This book is very popular and has been an unprecedented success.
Moreover, Wu Changling may be the first person to transform the story of learning scriptures with a strong Buddhist atmosphere into a work with a strong sense of life.
The fold of "Sichun", the jade-faced fox and the two monsters of the Bull Demon King got married, and they had to find a matchmaker, and they also had to analyze the matchmaker, which was the most typical transformation.
It is an epoch-making genius idea to depict all the gods and demons as mortals, with family disputes and all kinds of troubles.
This kind of creativity is not only the basis of the later "Journey to the West" novels, but also affects almost all gods and demons novels.
It's a pity that this script, which was praised by critics of the time, was lost in the Ming Dynasty.
The miscellaneous drama "Journey to the West" that we can see today should be written by Yang Jingxian in the early Ming Dynasty, and there are many plots in it, which are obviously taken from Wu Changling's miscellaneous dramas.
But Yang Jingxian still gave up many classic scenes.
Among them, the most important thing to abandon is the story of "Fox Sichun".
Fortunately, the Kunqu opera script, which is known as the living fossil of opera, and the Shengping Treasure Raft, retain this fold.
This story tells that the badger woman is the matchmaker and asks the jade-faced princess to recruit the bull demon king.
As I said before, the Bull Demon King's family is a hard combination of the author of the novel version, and the evidence is reflected in the play "Sichun".
This folded script did not mention that the Bull Demon King was married at all, and the jade-faced princess responded with joy, and did not feel like a concubine.
When it comes to Yang Jingxian's miscellaneous drama, Princess Iron Fan is single, and things are obvious.
In terms of historical evolution, the jade-faced princess is the main room, and the iron fan princess is the "third party" who was added later.
"Badger woman, you are a famous Huan woman, you should be able to do this errand." The old mother of the jade fairy smiled.
The badger woman laughed again and again: "This matter is very easy, the Bull Demon King is a hero of the world, and the jade-faced princess is a peerless beauty, and she is the best match." ”
"Isn't the Bull Demon King very close to my father-killing enemy, Lishan's mother?" Princess Jade's face turned pale suddenly.
"And the Bull Demon King already has a wife, Princess Iron Fan, the first beauty of my fox clan, how can I marry as a concubine!" The Nine-Tailed Fox King didn't care about respecting the old-timers anymore, and his voice was very high.
"Wait, could it be that the marriage between the Bull Demon King and the Jade-faced Princess was actually facilitated by you, grandmother? This is not scientific! Li Wei couldn't help but shout.
According to the original Journey to the West, the grandmother should have been killed by Sun Wukong now.
Li Wei originally thought that he had saved his grandmother, but the plot had changed greatly, and Princess Jade would have another ending.
"Badger, you go first." The old mother of the jade fairy waved her hand.
When the badger woman left, the old mother sighed: "Virtuous niece, you want to take revenge, do you know how strong the enemy is?" ”
"And now, if you turn the Bull Demon King into your own people, our strength will increase greatly, and as long as you are clever enough to cause him to break up with Princess Iron Fan, you will divide the power of the old mother of Lishan."
"The Bull Demon King is the head of the Seven Great Sages, if he stands up, the rest of the Great Sages will definitely echo, how powerful this help is, can you imagine it?"
