Journey to the West: Don’t mess with that monster

"Are you guys a group here to deceive me?" The old man wanted to drive Tang Seng and his friends away.

The monkey briefly recounted what had happened.

"That demon comes on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month?" It seems that the demon has an unusual relationship with Honglin.

"Yeah." Monkey nodded.

"Why are you pretending!" the old man snorted coldly.

Zhang Qingdi did not say anything this time, for he was afraid that his elegance and easy-going manner would anger the old man to death.

He just threw the red-scaled python to the ground and said, "Let this old man see if the guy who came on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month is you!"

After Zhang Qingdi finished speaking, the red-scaled python grew to twenty or thirty feet long.

The old man was so frightened that he fell to his knees, trembling.

"God! God! Please forgive my poor eyesight..."

"You are not short-sighted, you just look down on others." Zhang Qingdi said.

After he said that, he put away the red-scaled python.

"You guys just take care of your own things. This is my karma." Zhang Qingdi said to the monkey.

"We promised this old man to subdue the demon, so we should see to it that the matter is resolved." The monkey said seriously.

"People have called you liars, and you still act like this?" Zhang Qingdi said with a smile, "You make this old man look like a nobody in comparison."

The power of every word Zhang Qingdi said was no less than a big fight!

The old man felt that he was slapped in the face and it hurt.

"Okay, since you want to give him an explanation, that's easy." Zhang Qingdi turned to the red-scaled python and said, "Close your eyes and try to call out."

The little red-scaled snake closed its eyes obediently, and opened them again after a long time.

"Master Qing, what am I calling for?"

"Nature is calling your consciousness!" Zhang Qingdi scolded angrily. "I can't let you call for love!"

The little red-scaled snake didn't dare to say anything more and she immediately closed her eyes.

Zhang Qingdi spoke again, "Towards the direction of Qi Jue Mountain."

The red-scaled snake tried to call out for a while, but it obviously had no effect. The monkey thought that this was really a chance for the python to show up, otherwise Master Qing would be treated as a liar.

"No?" asked Zhang Qingdi.

"Master, I don't know how to make the call you mentioned!" Hong Lin said a little embarrassedly.

Zhang Qingdi did not despise her. He stretched out his finger and gently touched Honglin's forehead.

The little snake took a nap as if in suspended animation.

"Was he beaten to death directly?" the old man asked in a low voice.

"Believe it or not, she ate you, old man, in one bite." Zhang Qingdi asked back.

Hearing this, the old man was so scared that he dared not speak.

He didn't expect that this immortal would speak so harshly. After a while, a ray of light really came from afar.

Zhang Qingdi took a look and said with certainty, "Very good, there is no shit."

Sure enough, only the red-scaled python came this time.

She flew over and landed on the ground. It turned out that this guy was not intelligent and spoke in snake language.

Zhang Qingdi didn't like the hissing sound and woke Honglin up directly.

When she woke up and saw the red-scaled python, she was also shocked.

The old man was also shocked at the same time. There was only one fairy originally, so how come another one appeared in such a short time?

The red-scaled python began to communicate with Hong Lin.

The monkeys couldn't understand the hissing sound, but they couldn't resist their curiosity.

"Master Qing, what's going on?" the monkey asked. He knew that Master Qing could understand snake language.

The Tang Monk pricked up his ears to listen.

The two big snakes in front of me look exactly the same.

Could it be twins?

Red Scale: We are snakes, born from eggs. Thank you...

Zhang Qingdi explained to them, “This one is the python I brought from Qi Jue Mountain that year, and the other one is not a real snake, but an obsession left by her.

This little demon is also interesting. Back then, I told her to clean up the rotten persimmons in Qi Jue Mountain, and then I took her away.

She definitely cleaned up Qi Jue Mountain back then."

"Ah!" The old man added to his own drama. "When did it clean up the Seven Deadly Mountains?"

"About five or six hundred years ago, the monkeys hadn't caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace yet." Zhang Qingdi said with a smile.

The monkey didn't like it at all. Emperor Zhang Qing used his rampage in the Heavenly Palace as a time coordinate.

"Don't interrupt me again. If you interrupt me again, I won't say anything." Zhang Qingdi glanced at the old man with annoyance.

"She has successfully transformed before. She came here once around the time when the monkey was pressed under the Five Elements Mountain."

The monkey was afraid of interrupting Zhang Qingdi, so he really stopped talking.

He could only listen with gritted teeth. Why did he always use his own affairs to calculate? Couldn't he use the time the two of them had been banished to the mortal world?
"After she arrived here, she saw that the Qi Jue Mountain had returned to its previous appearance." Zhang Qingdi said with a sneer.

"I didn't expect that what happened back then was so important to her. When she saw what had happened to Qi Jue Mountain, she felt that she had not fulfilled my request.

She, who had originally transformed into a human form, became a demon again.

But she left a trace of obsession here, probably for her self-protection, and chose to forget about it. If she hadn't left this obsession, she probably wouldn't be alive now, and it wouldn't be as simple as just recovering her demon body. "Zhang Qingdi said.

Monkey and the others were amazed when they heard this. Elder Tang asked with concern, "Is there any way to help her?"

"I didn't know the situation before, so I didn't know how to help. Now that I know, it's easy." Zhang Qingdi said with a smile.

After hearing what Zhang Qingdi said, everyone was happy for the red-scaled python.

"Sir, this demon... immortal..."

"Neither she nor I are gods, we are monsters, so please be polite when you speak, otherwise I will imprison you in the Qi Jue Mountain!" said Zhang Qingdi.

The old man was so scared that he almost fell to his knees...

"What did you want to ask just now?" Zhang Qingdi said.

"Nothing, I don't want to ask anything."

"Are you wondering why that obsession would bring filth to harm you?"

"I think this demon fairy has his own ideas, which we mortals cannot understand." This old man knows how to deal with current affairs, but he is definitely not a hero.

"She is trying to help you." Zhang Qingdi said, "Do you think I am lying to you?

The stench of Qi Jue Mountain is unbearable, but you can all stand it.

But those filthy airs can do great harm to your body. She comes here on the first and fifteenth day of every month.

You will then clean up Zhuangzi thoroughly. Although this will not cure the root cause, it will be able to treat the symptoms.

How old are you?

"I am forty-one years old this year?" said the old man.

Everyone was stunned after hearing this. Emperor Zhang Qing asked again, "Is there anyone in your village who lives a long life?"

"If I can live another nine years, I will be considered long-lived," said the old man with a wry smile.

"Then you haven't thought about the problem of the mountain?"

"We all thought it was the filth brought by this goblin that caused this." The old man said with some shame. "So that's how it is!"

Zhang Qingdi was too lazy to talk nonsense with him anymore. He said to Hong Lin, "Still can't let it go?"

"Master, it's hard to lie to yourself about some things." Hong Lin said with a wry smile. "I plan to stay here and clean up this mountain again!"

"Stay here and play with shit!" Zhang Qingdi said unhappily.

Hong Lin didn't dare to say much, and at this time Tang Seng also spoke.

"Master Qing, we have to pass through the Qi Jue Mountain on our way to the West. Why don't we help this red-scaled python clean up the Qi Jue Mountain?"

"Master, well said!" The monkey nodded.

Zhang Qingdi was disgusted at first, but when they said so, he turned to the old man and said, "Go and call the people from your farm."

The old man did not dare to delay, Zhang Qingdi flew to the middle of the air and said, "The foul air of Qijue Mountain is harmful to all of you, now we will clean it up for you.

If you can keep it clean in the future, I will stay here. If you continue to be so self-centered, I will move away from this mountain. "

Everyone was so frightened that they kowtowed and begged Emperor Zhang Qing to leave the Qi Jue Mountain. So except Emperor Zhang Qing, everyone including Tang Monk went to clean up the Qi Jue Mountain under the leadership of the Red Scaled Python.

The white horse showed its true form, and the monkey even used the Dharma images of heaven and earth. Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng brought clean water to wash the mountain.

In three days, Qi Jue Mountain became very clean.

Those stench has been there for hundreds of years, so it is naturally difficult to eliminate.

Finally, Zhang Qingdi used fire to completely burn away the foul odor. He also brought a clear river and asked everyone to wash their bodies in the river.

The people in the village couldn’t see that the disease and filth that enveloped them were all washed away by the river water.

There was no longer any stench on the Qi Jue Mountain, but instead it was filled with the fragrance of fruit.

The moment Qi Jue Mountain became clean, the red-scaled python's obsession disappeared.

She immediately regained her human form.

The human figure with red scales is a little girl with a delicate face and a delicate figure.

"Master, I did it!" She ran up and down the mountain happily.

"Go and thank them." said Zhang Qingdi.

"Thank you, Holy Monk Tang, you will surely succeed in obtaining the scriptures.

Thank you also to the Great Sage, to Brother Pig II, to Brother Sha III, and to Bai Long!" Now she has regained her lively personality.

Tang Seng and his companions also felt a great sense of accomplishment. "Hong Lin, this time we are not here to help you, we are also here for ourselves."

"That's right, that's right." The monkey also laughed. "You should practice well. When I come back from my pilgrimage, I will definitely come to play with you."

"Okay." Honglin said with a smile.

"Okay, you guys keep going forward, we are going back." Zhang Qingdi waved goodbye to them.

The monkey ran to the side and whispered, "Master Qing, this is not another difficulty you have prepared for us, is it?"

"I have nothing to do, so I'm going to prepare hardships for you." Zhang Qingdi snorted coldly. "The next hardship has nothing to do with me.

But if you encounter something you can’t solve, just come to Jin’ao Island to find us.”

"Okay." The monkey said with a smile. "Master Qing, you are not as reliable as the Bodhisattva."

"That's much more reliable." Zhang Qingdi said with a smile.

After saying goodbye to the monkeys and the others, Zhang Qingdi took Honglin back to Jin'ao Island.

Hong Lin happily went back to his own mountain to practice, and Zhang Qingdi was about to return to his Qingdi Palace to continue playing, but he was unexpectedly stopped by the sad-looking Nan Ji Weng.

"Don't tell me you can't find your mount again?" Zhang Qingdi asked. (End of this chapter)
