Chapter 100: The Frightened Bird

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man gave up his hand, turned around and knocked on the doorpost, frightened the Sanzang Legion into a cold sweat, hurriedly stepped forward to hold him, and persuaded him repeatedly: "Old man come slowly, we understand your kindness, but the disaster is ours, but it has nothing to do with you, you just have to stay with confidence and boldness, and everything is borne by my Sanzang Legion." ”

The old man had already burst into tears, desperately struggling to hit the pillar, but Wukong had a few people and held him down, just an old man who was in his old age, even if he used the strength to eat, he still couldn't struggle, until he was so tired that he was panting, crying and howling: "Everything is fate, but I can't blame anyone, the old decay is coming, but I want to die comfortably, why don't you wait for the demon king to come and cut my heart and stomach?" Elder, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, you should let go of the old decay, go on the road early to learn the scriptures, and don't think of the decayed and withered body, which will harm the lives of the people on this side. ”

The old man's words were sad, and Sun Wukong's face was red, he was angry, shouted, and slammed open the temple door and said: "Don't quarrel, you old man is really ignorant, and the famous Monkey King doesn't pay attention to it, but wants to seek death, which is unbearable." According to my old grandson's opinion, I smashed the temple door first to see if his bullshit king is still calm?"

The old man was so frightened that he immediately stepped forward with an arrow, and crashed into Wukong desperately, until he was blocked by the monkey ten feet away, rolling on the ground and looking for teeth.

Sun Wukong stood still, and sneered: "You old man is so ignorant, you speak well, why do you hit me?

The old man stood up with his hands on the ground, stopped in front of the temple gate tremblingly, waved his hand and said: "The elder can't help it, even if you want to fight the demon king, you should go down to the heavenly river, what do you do with this temple?" If you go into the water to catch demons, at most you will die, this inspiration Dawang Temple is the image project of the demon king, it is related to his face and dignity, and no one can be disrespectful, if not, a big flood will be sent to flood the village, and then the unlucky people will be our people. ”

Bajie laughed, and sneered at the depressed monkey: "Brother Monkey, this old man is frightened by that monster, he only believes in his power, and does not recognize your means of the Monkey King, so you better stop it quickly, lest the monster perceive and affect the people on this side." ”

Wu Qi screamed, suddenly rose into the air, and shouted with a Ruyi golden hoop stick: "Damn, I'm really angry with my grandson, Bajie, quickly go into the water with me and catch that monster ashore, so that this old man can know the methods of our Sanzang Army." ”

The old man was so frightened that his bones were soft, he looked up at the sky, and kowtowed again and again: "Elder can't help it, you are so righteous and angry, I am afraid that it will be a bad thing, and I don't know how many cultivators have gone into the water to catch demons in the past two hundred years, how can the magic be low, and they can't stand the powerful combat power of the demon king, and they all die under his copper hammer, and in the end they will send a lot of water to anger us and other people." The old man has already said that everything is fate, and we have already accepted our fate, so I just ask the elder to leave early, and don't bother us. ”

Seeing that the old man tried every possible means to prevent himself from catching demons, the monkey was aggrieved, pressed the head of the clouds, and stomped his feet hatefully: "Damn, it's really holding on and not moving, fighting backwards, my grandson has never suffered this kind of bird gas in his life, just let it go, I don't bother to move, just do what you say." ”

Tang Sanzang glanced at the old man with pity, shook his head and sighed: "It seems that this King of Inspiration is indeed a character, such a thunderous method, to set an example, so that the people of Tongtianhe are frightened, but begging Mingzhe to protect himself, get by, but he regards this murderous demon as a righteous god to worship, even if it is Da Luo Jinxian to save it, he only thinks it is a demon, it is really sad." ”

"But Wukong, you don't have to worry, since the King of Inspiration has the ability to perceive all things, we have words to offend him, and he will also know it, even if we don't go to him, he will definitely come to us to seek revenge, we just need to wait here and wait for the rabbit. ”

The monkey felt very justified when he heard this, and nodded: "What the master said is very true, since this is the case, we will wait in this temple, and we will not worry that the monster will not come, but like this, it may take some time, which is contrary to our purpose of hurrying quickly." ”

Sanzang sighed, and shrugged his shoulders helplessly: "The matter has come to this, and there is no other way, I just hope that the demon king will dominate one side, and he will be arrogant, and he will immediately come to find our trouble, and we can also take advantage of the situation to fight back, in addition to this scourge." ”

So the master and apprentice ignored the old man's persuasion, put him aside a few times, opened the temple door and entered the hall, opened the pot and stove, and ate barbecue. Unable to resist the insistence of the Sanzang Army, the old man was helpless, and after thinking about it, he had already offended the King of Inspiration anyway, and time was running out, so he simply followed the Sanzang Army to cut meat and roast the fire, eat nonsense, and be very happy, and secretly sighed that the decades of trembling and living were really wasted.

However, the waiting days were long after all, and everyone ate from noon to midnight, and they did not see the King of Inspiration come to Xingshi to ask for their guilt, which was really a little discouraged. The sky was clear and clear this night, the bright moon hung high, spreading a light as bright as frost, illuminating everyone's hearts and minds, and the excitement was great, if it were not for the fear of the inspiration king that could appear at any time, so that this quiet moonlit night seemed a little solemn, but the scenery of this night was still quite happy.

Seeing that everyone was more or less slack, Tang Sanzang secretly sighed that the king of inspiration was cunning, and he was waiting for work, which was to exert a powerful combat power against the enemy from afar under the condition of maintaining enough morale, instead of waiting endlessly, if he escaped for too long, he would be slow, and when the enemy suddenly launched an attack from the shadows, it was really impossible to prevent it, and he had to find a way to crack it.

The archmage pondered for a moment, looked at the old man who was hanging his head and was drowsy at the moment, and said quietly: "Uncle, the King of Inspiration is indeed an extremely intelligent person, who has governed you well for two hundred years, and he does not dare to make any mistakes, and his methods are really clever. ”

The old man yawned when he heard this, and said slowly: "The holy monk doesn't know anything, and the King of Inspiration is not very clever, but his third sister Huanghua Mandarin Fish Essence is a shrewd and capable master, although the mana is low, but the wisdom is unpredictable, and most of the ideas of the King of Inspiration to control the people over the years are from her handwriting, and she is really a powerful character." ”

Tang Sanzang was taken aback and muttered: "Well, I think about it, there is indeed a yellow-flowered mandarin fish essence in the original book, and the idea of freezing the Heavenly River was her one, and she is indeed an extremely smart master." But since she is the third sister, who is the second sister?"

"Alas, that guy didn't even expect that he was the master of the Tongtian River, a white turtle that has been cultivated for thousands of years, has a gentle temperament, has been enlightened for a long time, lives comfortably in the Tongtian River, and occasionally rescues fishermen who have lost their footing and drowned. Two hundred years ago, the white turtle was occupied by the king of inspiration, and he got out of trouble alone, and once disappeared, life and death are unknown, but only a few years, the white turtle reappeared, and has become the second brother of the king of inspiration. The old man shook his head and yawned.

Speaking of the white turtle, Tang Sanzang still knows, it is the old turtle that carried the Tang monk and apprentice across the Tongtian River, although this guy is a little cautious, after all, it is not an evil thing, why has his temperament changed greatly in a few years, and he actually worshipped the enemy Inspiration King, could it be that there is something hidden in this? The holy monk can't think of a reason if he wants to break his head, I really hope that the Inspiration King can appear as soon as possible, so that this mage can solve the mystery as soon as possible.

However, the King of Inspiration seemed to be intent on testing patience with the Sanzang Army, and he had been staying in the water and not coming out, and now it was already the second watch, and the charcoal on the bonfire was basically burned out, and Tianshu and Bajie, who were accustomed to going to bed early, had already salivated and squatted on the ground and dozed off. Sanzang really couldn't, so he had to beckon everyone to rest early, and when it was dawn, he went directly into the water and smashed the mansion of the King of Inspiration.

Arranged a stop, Sanzang kicked Bajie, who was about to sleep soundly as if he had been amnestied, and assigned him to stand guard in front of the door for everyone. The old pig with a depressed face had to rub his sleepy eyes, prop up a pair of increasingly heavy eyelids, carry a nail rake, and muttered to the door to sentry.
