Chapter 1016: The King's Request of the Treasure Elephant Kingdom
Since there was no food to be sold here in the Black Pine Forest, Old Tang and his entourage were naturally happy and stable, and after resting for one night, they took the rail rune car and went straight to the Treasure Elephant King Capital.
After arriving in the royal capital, he showed the old Tang's 'certificate' to the officials who entertained foreign guests in the royal capital, and expressed his hope to get the jade disc of the Baoxiang Kingdom, and the news soon spread to the palace and aroused the interest of the king of the Baoxiang Kingdom.
Lao Tang and his entourage only stayed in the official post of the royal capital for less than half a day, and then the palace officials sent a message: The king is invited!
There is nothing to say, except for leaving Monk Sha to stay to guard the luggage, Lao Tang arrived at the palace with monkeys, old pigs and little white dragons, and was cordially received by the king, and directly presented the jade plate for customs clearance, and the attitude was as polite as possible.
It's just that there is a saying called 'courtesy to people must ask for something', Lao Tang is not a fool, the king of Baoxiang Country has such a polite attitude, needless to say, there must be something to ask.
Obviously, the king of the Baoxiang Kingdom did not mean to play dumb riddles with the old Tang, and asked directly after the politeness: "The Eastern Tang Dynasty is not less than tens of millions of miles away from the Baoxiang Kingdom, and the master is afraid that it will not be so easy to travel all the way!" ”
"Amitabha, it's going well!"
Old Tang wanted to be polite, no matter how bitter he was, it was impossible to spit it out in front of the king of Baoxiang Kingdom, wouldn't that be a loss of face for the people of the Tang Dynasty?
"Of course, I've encountered a lot of demons and monsters along the way!"
The monkey was not so polite, and said bluntly: "My master has traveled all the way, but he has encountered a lot of dangers, but fortunately, my old grandson has strong skills, and he has not been injured by the support all the way!" ”
"Hmph, my old pig also has a lot of credit, right?"
Zhu Bajie didn't let go of the opportunity to invite credit, and said: "My old pig is always charging forward, monkey, you can't erase the credit of my old pig!" ”
The corners of Old Tang and Little White Dragon's mouths twitched, they had never seen such a shameless person.
That is, the two of them are quite normal, they didn't want to brag in front of others, and of course they couldn't refute the boasting of the monkey and the old pig, and the atmosphere instantly became a little embarrassing.
Unexpectedly, the king of the Treasure Elephant Kingdom had his eyes lit up, and he looked at the monkey and the old pig without the slightest disgust, and said with a smile: "It seems that the two master disciples must be supernatural and extraordinary!" ”
"It's nature!"
The old pig continued to grab the words, and said triumphantly: "It's not that my old pig is bragging, the general monster is not in the eyes of my old pig, of course, the senior brother is even more powerful!" ”
was glared at by the monkey, and this guy immediately changed his words and praised him, and his cheekiness was surprising.
The king of Baoxiang Kingdom was too lazy to investigate the truth or falsehood, and smiled directly: "It just so happens that this king has a difficult matter here, and he wants to ask the two masters of the master to solve it, of course, this is also related to the master's westward journey!" ”
"Oh, I wonder what Your Majesty has to ask?"
Old Tang perked up and knew that the drama was coming, and whether he could get out of the Baoxiang King's Palace smoothly depended on whether the two sides talked about it well or badly.
The king of the Treasure Elephant Kingdom smiled lightly and said directly: "If you continue to travel west from the Treasure Elephant Kingdom, you will pass through a place called Pingding Mountain, which is occupied by two powerful monsters!" ”
Old Tang and the apprentices did not open their mouths to answer, they only listened quietly, without showing the slightest panic, no matter how they said it, they were all old birds who had experienced many things.
Like an old pig, there is a doubt in his stomach without an exit: Isn't your horse very powerful, can't you kill the two monsters in Pingdingshan?
"If the master wants to go west smoothly, Pingdingshan can't avoid it!"
The king of the Treasure Elephant Kingdom said directly: "If the master is willing, we can join forces to solve the two monsters in Pingdingshan, I don't know what the master wants?" ”
And so it was!
Old Tang clasped his hands together and asked softly, "I don't know what trouble Your Majesty has, you must target the monsters of Pingdingshan?" ”
"This king won't hide it from you!"
The king of Baoxiang Kingdom showed a clear look, obviously did not say his true thoughts, and wanted to join forces with the monk in front of him, it was basically impossible, so he did not hide it, and said in a deep voice: "After Pingdingshan is the country of Wuji, originally our two countries can be directly connected by rail runes, and then the exchange of commerce and trade will develop more rapidly, but it was destroyed by the two monsters of Pingdingsheng!" ”
Cutting off people's financial routes is like killing their parents, not to mention breaking the financial routes of the two countries, if the high-level leaders of Baoxiang Country and Wuji Country are not resentful, it will be hell.
Although Lao Tang was born in an empty family and became famous early, he didn't pay much attention to money, but he also knew that this matter was a huge disadvantage to the people of the two countries.
He also sees the leading role of rail cars in economic development.
Whether it is the town where the Guanyin Monastery is located, or the location of Gao Laozhuang, all because of the existence of the rail rune car, the local business and trade are prosperous and the people are rich, and it is enough to have such a promoting effect.
It was only the alliance of the scattered forces of the human race that could achieve such amazing achievements, and if countries like the Treasure Elephant Country and the Black Chicken Country were united, it would play an incredible and huge role in propulsion.
As a member of the Terrans, this is a good thing no matter how you think about it.
Also, the king of the Treasure Elephant Kingdom will not lie and deceive, if Pingdingshan is really a necessary place on the way to the west, the probability of bumping into those two monsters is as high as more than seventy percent.
Even if Old Tang is unwilling to take the initiative to provoke, it doesn't mean that the two monsters in Pingdingshan won't trouble him.
Although the rumor that eating Tang monk's meat can lead to immortality is not very strong because of the rapid development of the human race along the way, it has also reached the ears of many monsters, who knows if these guys will want to do something because of this, especially when Old Tang is about to pass by their territory?
"Wukong, Bajie, what do you think?"
Thinking about these clearly, Lao Tang looked at the monkey and the old pig, the main force of the shot was these two, Xiao Bailong and Monk Sha were purely soy sauce, if these two refused to take the initiative to cooperate, even if he agreed to the joint request of the king of Baoxiang Kingdom, he would not be able to do it.
"Since you have to face off with those two monsters in Pingdingshan sooner or later, then there's nothing to say, just kill them directly, there's no need to talk nonsense!"
The monkey is as tough as ever, although he doesn't do his best to be perfunctory every time he encounters a powerful monster, it doesn't mean that he is afraid of things.
"This thing has to be pondered and pondered!"
The old pig was not so active, ignored the eager eyes of the king of Baoxiang Kingdom, and said directly: "Don't talk about it, we have to know what the two monsters in Pingdingshan are and what skills they have, right?" ”
After speaking, without waiting for others to speak, he continued: "Also, since Your Majesty said that it was a joint operation, what is the strength of the manpower dispatched by the Baoxiang Kingdom, we must know it first, right?" ”
"Yes, yes, what the master said is right!"
The king of Baoxiang Country nodded again and again, obviously very satisfied with the old pig's 'calm and steady' attitude, and said to Lao Tang with a smile: "I think that when the master passed by the black pine forest, he should have heard of the king's horse, and this time he will join forces with the master to solve the monsters in Pingdingshan, and he will come forward on behalf of Baoxiang Kingdom!" ”
The king of the Treasure Elephant Kingdom said this very naturally, as if he really regarded the yellow-robed monster as his own horse, and he was not polite at all, and it was obvious that he had not asked for the opinion of the yellow-robed monster before.
The old pig secretly slandered in his heart, in fact, he had vaguely guessed the identity of the yellow-robed monster, and knew that it was not a good-natured guy, but he didn't know where the king of the Treasure Elephant Kingdom came from so much confidence?
"As for the lineage of the two monsters in Pingdingshan, this king doesn't know much here, but he also knows some!"
The king of the Treasure Elephant Kingdom explained: "Those two monsters call themselves the King of the Golden Horn and the King of the Silver Horn, and their own strength is not very good. ”
Speaking of this, he paused and smiled: "It is very dangerous to go alone, but if there are many people, as long as the strength is enough to take down those two monsters, it is not impossible!" ”
"Your Majesty, can you allow our master and apprentice to discuss this matter?"
Old Tang opened his mouth and smiled: "It's too sudden, and I don't know ...... bottom for a while."
The latter words don't need to be said too clearly, the meaning is understood by everyone, that is, the king of the Treasure Elephant Kingdom came to such a surprise attack, if they dared to agree directly, it would be strange, I am afraid that the king of the Treasure Elephant Kingdom himself would not dare to believe it.
Sure enough, the king of Baoxiang Kingdom was very generous to let Lao Tang's master and apprentice leave, and he didn't mean to be embarrassed, and put on a posture that made Lao Tang feel worried, and he didn't dare to slack off at all.
After returning to the post station, Lao Tang directly instructed the monkey to go to investigate the situation, whether it was as the king of Baoxiang Country said, on the way to the west, he must pass through Pingding Mountain, as well as the situation on the other side of Pingdingshan, it is best to find out clearly, so as to save the time when he really joined forces with Baoxiang Kingdom, because of insufficient intelligence, he suffered a secret loss.
Lao Sun should get down, and immediately turned into light and left, without a moment's delay, there is really such an idea of urgency.
Old Tang was relieved, but the old pig was not relieved.
He knows the monkey's temperament very well, and he may not know if the monkey is arrogant and does something stupid, just like what he did in the Wuzhuang Temple of Wanshou Mountain before.
He wanted to follow behind and observe secretly, but the monkey's flight speed was too fast, and by the time he reacted, he didn't know where it had flown to, so he had no choice but to give up.
The monkey is indeed a troublesome ancestor, and soon arrived at Pingdingshan, first pretending to look around, and found that Pingdingshan is indeed the only way to go west, unless Lao Tang is willing to go around a big circle, and walk millions of miles to get around.
Come to think of it, it is absolutely impossible for Lao Tang to agree to go around, who knows if he will bump into other powerful monsters during the process?
When the monkey arrived at Pingdingshan, he happened to see the silver horn king shouting five and six to train his little demons, and its heart moved and quietly lowered the clouds, and when it got closer, it suddenly raised its stick and beat it, and shouted fiercely: "The monster is killed!" ”
A stick directly pulled the Silver Horn King in two, and he died so much that he couldn't die anymore......
