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

Chapter 528: The Dog Demon Steals the Key While Drunk, the People of Fengxian County Have No Food

Zhang Qingdi took Xiaosheng to have a big meal, and then they went straight back to Jinao Island.

"Master, I'm going to practice!"

"Well, I also want to go and practice...

Looking for Chang'e, Qingqing and others...

Zhang Qingdi did not say the second half of the sentence to Xiaosheng.

Emperor Zhang Qing, who was almost at the Qingdi Palace, thought of Xiaofeng's marriage.

He was so focused on his own cultivation that he forgot about Xiaofeng.

So Zhang Qingdi went to find Xiaofeng first. When he heard that he was going to propose marriage to him, he grunted and sighed for a long time but couldn't say a word.

"Then why don't you just forget it? I still have to practice." Zhang Qingdi said deliberately.

"Go ahead...go ahead!" Xiao Feng said hastily. "I want to give her a name!"

Zhang Qingdi curled his lips and went straight to find the Dragon King of the East China Sea.

Hearing that Xiao Feng was going to marry Ao Ji, Ao Guang recalled who Ao Ji was...

"Isn't that Nine-headed Insect the same as Ao Ji's father..." Ao Guang couldn't help but ask.

"The two of them let go of their hatred in another way." Zhang Qingdi looked at Ao Guang's clam girl.

This guy is good at dealing with people, and the girls he gives to himself are all the biggest.

"If that's the case, I'd naturally be willing to propose marriage." Ao Guang immediately said with a smile.

"You are the girl's elder, I just came to talk to you first.

I still need to ask the girl first, and if she agrees, you can come and help her." The Qing Emperor is actually quite considerate.

Hearing this, Ao Guang couldn't help but sigh, "Master Qing is indeed elegant and easy-going!"

"Well! Say this more to those bastards who are thinking that I am vicious and evil!" Zhang Qingdi snorted coldly and disappeared.

He arrived at Ao Ji's Bi Bo Tan, and after the report from the shrimp soldiers and crab generals, Ao Ji soon came out to personally greet Zhang Qingdi.

She felt a little embarrassed when she saw Zhang Qingdi.

"I'm here to propose marriage to you on behalf of Xiaofeng." Zhang Qingdi said straight to the point.

Ao Ji blushed immediately, "My parents are both gone, this matter still needs to be decided by the elders of the clan."

How could Ao Ji not know the relationship between Zhang Qingdi and Ao Guang.

If I like you, then I will listen to my parents!
If you don’t like me, I won’t marry you. I want to be with my parents!

After hearing what she said, the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas arrived and their marriage was finalized.

"Ao Ji will naturally marry to Jin'ao Island. When the time comes, a piece of sea area will be allocated near Jin'ao Island, and Ao Ji will be allowed to become a Dragon King!" Ao Guang made the arrangements very tactfully.

Zhang Qingdi called Xiaofeng as well, and the two of them listened shyly at the side.

"I'll ask the old monk to predict a good day for them then." Zhang Qingdi said at last. "Can he predict it?"

Who would dare to question the ancient Buddha Dipankara?

The old monk picked the eighth day of the next month. Zhang Qingdi really thought that the old monk just picked it randomly, but he had no evidence.

When the wedding was held, Jin'ao Island was very lively for a while. The dog demon secretly observed everything, but he didn't know that he was being secretly observed by Liu'er.

Originally, Niu Qiqiang was clamoring to make trouble in the bridal chamber. This guy was getting married himself, but he wanted to bring trouble to others.

However, it was rejected by Emperor Zhang Qing, saying that there was no such custom on Jinao Island!
So the newlyweds were happily sent to the bridal chamber.

Everyone drank a lot of wine that day, and there was a key in the central control of Jinao Island.

The key is held by Zhang Qingdi and the other by Black Bear Demon!
After arriving on the island, the dog demon had a good relationship with the black bear demon. Today, the black bear demon was drunk.

He helped the black bear demon back to the top of the mountain.

This dog demon is not qualified to own his own mountain, so he has been living here with the black bear demon.

At this moment, he felt sorry for these stupid guys.

I gained their trust so easily.

These guys on Jin'ao Island are really nothing to worry about!

The black bear demon fell on the bed and fell asleep. The dog demon gently pushed the black bear demon.

"Big Black Brother?"

"Woo woo woo..." The black bear demon waved his hands in dissatisfaction, as if he had ruined his beautiful dream.

The dog demon took the key hanging on the black bear demon's waist.

The structure of the key was very complicated. He took out a magic weapon and inserted the key.

The dog demon looked at the black bear demon in fear. He was really afraid that this guy would suddenly get up.

"Water! Water!" the black bear demon suddenly shouted.

This dog demon was almost scared to death...

He quickly poured the black bear a cup of tea. The black bear drank the tea without blinking, then changed his position and fell asleep.

The dog demon was so frightened that he was sweating all over. Finally, the magic weapon spat out the key. The magic weapon soon spat out another identical key.

He quickly hung the original key on the waist of the black bear demon. He looked at the key in his hand, and thought that this key might be able to be exchanged for an Arhat.

This guy was so smart that he fell asleep at the door.

After the black bear demon waited for him to fall asleep, he opened his eyes and looked at the stupid dog with a mocking look. It was really tiring to play along with him even though he was a traitor.

The next day, everything on Jin'ao Island was the same as before, but Xiaofeng took Ao Ji to pay a formal visit to Emperor Zhang Qing.

Master Qingdi understood Xiaofeng's meaning, and he gave each of them a magical weapon that could be used for both offense and defense.

This magic weapon was made by Xiaofeng himself.

But he couldn't use what he made privately. The monkey didn't know that there was a wedding on Jin'ao Island. If he knew, he would definitely ask Tang Seng for a few days off to attend the wedding.

If Tang Seng disagreed, he could actually let the demon capture him and then rescue him after the wedding.

The four masters and apprentices rode down the Hidden Mist Mountain and rushed onto the main road.

After walking for seven or eight days, Tang Seng first saw a city not far away.

"Wukong, look at that city in front of us, is it the Kingdom of India?" Elder Tang asked excitedly.

On the way, they met a shepherd who told them that they were only a thousand miles away from India.

“No! No!

Although the Tathagata's place is called Paradise, it is not a city, but a big mountain with towers and pavilions on it, which is called Lingshan Leiyin Temple.

Even if we reach Tianzhu, it is not the residence of Tathagata. We don’t know how far Tianzhu is from Lingshan, and that city must be a county outside Tianzhu.” The monkey quickly explained to Tang Seng.

"But Master, don't be anxious. We have already come here. Both Lingshan and Tianzhu Kingdom are very close." The monkey said seriously.

"Wukong is right. I was a little anxious." Tang Seng clasped his hands together and calmed himself down.

So they headed for the city. When they reached the outside of the city, Elder Tang dismounted from his horse. There were no guards at the city gate.

"Fengxian County!" Zhu Bajie said, looking at the plaque on the city gate. "This place has a good name!"

They walked straight into the city and found that the people were desolate and the streets were deserted.

When I arrived at the market entrance, I saw many people in tattered clothes, with pale faces and thin bodies, standing under the eaves of houses.

Tang Seng wanted to go forward and ask why the city looked like this.

Before they could get close, the men saw Zhu Bajie and shouted, "The monster is coming."

They fled in all directions. Zhu Bajie turned his head and his pig nose almost hit Sha Seng's face.

"Junior Brother Sha, am I that scary?"

Sha Seng was frightened by the pig's nose and said, "I was almost scared to death!"

"Wukong, why do the people seem to be suffering more and more as we get closer to Lingshan?" Elder Tang couldn't help but ask.

The monkey sneered and said, "Perhaps the monsters here are hard to control. They are either the mounts of some Bodhisattva or the children of some Buddha."

Hearing this, Elder Tang sighed...

At this time, the man who had just been scared away came with a group of yamen runners.

"Protect the master." Although they were a group of mortals, the monkey still spoke.

Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng stood on Tang Seng's left and right.

The group of people came up to them and saluted directly, "Excuse me, where are you from?"

At this time, Elder Tang stepped forward and said, "I came from the Tang Dynasty in the East, and I am going to the West to obtain the scriptures!"

When the leading yamen runner heard this, his face became even more respectful.

Elder Tang then asked, "How far is this place from the Tianzhu Kingdom?"

"It's not far." The bailiff said with a smile on his face.

When the monkey saw the expressions of these people, he knew that they must have something to ask of them.

"What are you doing here?" the monkey stepped forward and asked.

The leading yamen runner quickly replied, "I was just about to post the notice when I heard someone say that several masters had come..."

"He's talking about the goblin!" Monkey laughed.

"A foolish man in the mountains doesn't know what a master is." The bailiff immediately said to him.

"What happened in the city?" Seeing the city in such a state, Elder Tang thought they had encountered a monster or some other trouble.

Since he has encountered this, Elder Tang will help if he can.

The bailiff quickly handed the notice to Elder Tang with both hands.

Tang Seng took the notice and his expression became uglier the more he looked at it.

"Is everything written on this notice true?" Tang Seng couldn't help but ask.

The bailiff sighed and nodded.

The monkey glanced at the notice curiously. He only read the important parts. It said: Fengxian County has been suffering from drought for many years.

There is no water in the well, and no fluid at the bottom of the spring.

A dou of millet cost a hundred gold coins, a bundle of firewood cost five liang. A ten-year-old girl was exchanged for three liters of rice, and a five-year-old boy was taken away with someone.

People in the city fear the law and pawn their clothes and other things to save themselves; people in the countryside cheat the public and rob and eat people to save their lives.

For this purpose, a notice was issued, calling on wise men from all directions to pray for rain to save the people, and their kindness should be repaid greatly.

After watching this, the monkey felt a little bit sorry.

"Is what is written in this notice true?" Tang Seng asked compassionately.

"If there is one false word in this notice, I will sacrifice my life." The bailiff hastily assured.

"We are the rich people in this city, but we can only eat one meal a day. Those people are either starving to death or eating their own children." said the man who had previously thought they were goblins.

Elder Tang looked at the monkey, who smiled bitterly and said, "Since this has happened, we have to take care of it!"

But the monkey thought that this matter might not be that simple...

The bailiffs took Tang Seng and his entourage to the residence of Shangguan County Magistrate.

Tang Seng took a look and frowned.

The people here did not show any signs of sadness on their faces. When Shangguan saw these four people, he looked at Elder Tang, who had a solemn appearance, and the three strange-looking disciples.

You can tell at first glance that he is capable!
"Hurry up and prepare the food and entertain the four monks." County Magistrate Shangguan said to the servants.
