Journey to the West: Begins with Tiger Vanguard

Chapter 82: Che Chi causes trouble, Qi Hu leaves the mountain!
Dense forest covered with snow.

A leeward spot on a hillside.

Deep in a tall and spacious cave.

An extremely strong elephant monster with an elephant head and a human body suddenly opened his eyes from his meditation.

Feeling the huge spiritual power in my body, which is far beyond what I had before; feeling the abundant power in my body, which is far beyond what I had before; feeling all kinds of new feelings all over my body, which are slightly strange, but also very familiar.
The elephant monster looked ahead again and saw that the remaining firewood in the fire pit in front of him had long been extinguished, and the charcoal had been blown into pieces and scattered throughout the cave.

Several large wine jars with red words "wine" on them that were neatly placed in the corner of the cave were also broken into pieces, covering the entire cave.

The most outrageous thing was that in the small fire pit, which was much smaller and shallower than the fire pit in Qi Hu Cave, the ash accumulated over time was already flying all over the sky, with a strong and pungent smell.

But the strong elephant demon, who was sitting cross-legged on a simple cloud bed made of animal skins deep in the cave, didn't care about anything else. He just looked at the messy cave in front of him, felt the huge changes in himself, and looked at a pair of hands that only had a few sparse hairs but were obviously bigger. He couldn't help but murmured: "This is the feeling of a breakthrough."

“This is what it feels like to be in the spiritual realm.”

“Is this what it feels like to be the chief?”

“This is really great.”

"Ha ha ha ha."

Feeling the various changes in his body, the elephant demon finally couldn't help laughing out loud: "I am finally the same as my third brother!"

"Hahaha"

The elephant monster who laughed out loud was naturally Qi Hu's sworn brother, who had grown fangs.

After having a good fight at the battlefield in the valley at the foot of the main mountain yesterday, and learning some experience from my third brother in his cave.

Changya felt that his opportunity was approaching and could no longer hold back. He hurried back and began to practice meditation.

I practiced like this for the whole night.

Until recently, he finally had an inspiration and a blessing came to his mind, breaking through the late stage of the Spiritual Awakening Realm that had stuck him for more than 20 years and advancing to the spiritual realm.

“It feels so good.”

"My third and second brothers would never have thought that I would break through so quickly."

"Hey Hey."

The more he thought about it, the happier and more excited he became, and Changya couldn't help but grin and laugh.

at this time.

There were footsteps outside the cave.

Changya was about to get up.

Then a tall figure with a tiger head and a human body appeared at the entrance of the cave.

"Third brother!"

Changya immediately exclaimed in surprise.

Just don't wait for him to say more.

Qi Hu, who walked quickly into his brother's cave, immediately inhaled a large mouthful of thick grass and wood dust, and immediately stepped back, repeatedly saying, "Brother, what did you do in the cave!"

"hey-hey."

Seeing his third brother's appearance, Changya immediately stood up and walked to the cave entrance. He touched his bald head and smiled at Qi Hu, saying, "I just made a breakthrough and made a lot of noise by mistake."

Hear what big brother said.

Before entering the cave, Qi Hu was basically certain that the spiritual power fluctuation just now was caused by his eldest brother's breakthrough. Only then did he have time to look up at Changya. He saw that in addition to his aura being obviously several times stronger than yesterday, the height of his half-demon body had finally broken through three meters, reaching three meters thirty-four, close to three meters five.

This was the body shape that Qi Hu had when he advanced to the middle stage of the Spiritual Realm.

He is far superior to the rat demon Long Beard and Snake Eater who are in the early stage of the spiritual realm among the current leaders of Jindou Mountain, and also surpasses the big guy and Man Gu who are in the middle stage. He is only ranked below the big leader Niu Er and Qi Hu.

It's really a lot taller and the body is much stronger.

All I can say is that in terms of their true form, larger monsters do have an advantage.

Just as Qi Hu was looking at the fangs carefully.

Changya was naturally also looking carefully at his third brother in front of him.

Talk about it.

At the beginning, when he first recruited his third brother into the gang and became sworn brothers with him, he was just a very taciturn tiger demon.

He usually doesn’t talk much and is quite dull, but he is definitely considerate and a real brother!
When fighting with other monsters, my third brother was always the first to rush in and was the most ferocious.

I just don't know when it started.

The third brother's personality gradually began to change. He became talkative, smarter, and had his own ideas.

No. It cannot be said that he has become smarter. My third brother was not stupid to begin with. He just didn’t like to talk before.

Then until that day, twenty years ago in the sacred bamboo forest in the south, my third brother said he wanted to go back to the main mountain.

Then, when the third brother came back again.

He and the second brother heard that the third brother had become the leader.

From that day on, he could no longer see his third brother's strength, he only knew that his aura of pressure was growing day by day.

It was also from that day on that his and Lao Er's lives changed drastically. They no longer had to patrol the mountains or stand guard. They lived a life that the little demons envied, and it was also the kind of life they had envied the most in the past.

Speaking of which, monsters like to huddle together for warmth and like to become sworn brothers.

But not all monsters who become sworn brothers can live in harmony and work together.

He had seen too many sworn brothers who turned against each other, betrayed each other, or even drew their swords against each other and killed each other for elixirs, benefits, danger, or other selfish desires.

Of course, there are also many monsters who have deep brotherly love, supporting each other and never leaving each other.
Just like him and his third and second brothers.

On this point, he and the second brother were especially grateful to the third brother.

Because twenty years ago, the third brother became the leader of the monsters. Different from the past, he became a big monster with a large group of monsters under his command, and they could completely abandon him and the second brother.

But my third brother didn’t!

Not only that, he was also afraid that the two of them would overthink it, so he talked to them several times. At the same time, he also tried his best to help the two of them, and even directly gave him and the second brother the right to manage the little demons.

He was not stingy with the wine, monster blood food, and elixirs that his third brother earned, and shared them generously with him and the second brother.

He and the second brother once talked about this while drinking. If they were the third brother, would they be able to do what they have now?

They should be able to do it, but they definitely can't surpass it.

Of course, they knew that Third Brother had a hard time, but he just never showed it in front of them.

Now, he has finally become a leader, and can finally help his third brother share some of the burden.
Now, he could finally see some of his third brother's cultivation. From his aura and momentum, he could tell that his third brother's cultivation was much stronger than his current self.

But finally, I can see something. It is no longer like before, a chaotic fog, with a complete sky and earth.

Although he is still far behind his third brother in terms of cultivation strength, it doesn't matter. He can catch up.
"Congratulations, brother."

After carefully examining the long fangs in front of him, Qi Hu smiled and said, "You are the same as me now."

"hey-hey."

Changya grinned and said, "It's all thanks to my third brother for taking care of me over the years, otherwise..."

"we are brothers!"

Qi Hu interrupted Chang Ya's sentimental words and said with a smile: "That's what we should do. If it were my elder brother or second brother, they would definitely do the same as me."

"of course"

Changya immediately laughed.

"Third brother!"

"Big brother!"

At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came from the forest on the side. Qi Hu Changya turned his head immediately and saw a big horn with a head full of antlers coming quickly towards him.

"Second brother."

"Second child"

Qi Hu and Chang Ya immediately started to greet them.

Da Jiao rushed over at this time. Seeing the big brother's new look, he was stunned and asked, "Big brother, have you made a breakthrough?"

Changya nodded immediately: "Of course, Lao Er, I'm one step ahead of you, hehe"

"Congratulations, bro."

The big horn who reacted immediately smiled and said, "I was just practicing in the cave, and suddenly I felt something strange. I wondered if it was the eldest brother, so I came here. I didn't expect it to be the eldest brother."

"But I also feel it's getting closer. After hearing what my third brother said yesterday, I feel a lot clearer now."

Listen to what my second brother says.

Qi Hu had nothing to worry about, as his second brother was always calm and cautious.

Of course, it was inevitable to feel a little disappointed when seeing my third brother and eldest brother make breakthroughs one after another.

After the three brothers chatted for a while.

Qi Hu then waved his hand to release the ghost Liu Bin, and then said to Da Jiao: "Second brother, you take Liu Bin back to my cave first, let him cook a pot of soup, I will take my eldest brother to the general, and ask for some wine, and then we three brothers can have a good drink when we come back."

"it is good"

Da Jiao nodded. He really didn’t have the heart to practice now.

His eldest brother also made a breakthrough, so he was naturally happy. However, when he thought of himself, some emotions were inevitably complicated.

soon.

Da Jiao left with his accomplice Liu Bin.

Watching the second brother disappear into the distant forest, Changya hesitated and said, "Third brother, should the second brother be okay?"

"It's fine"

Qi Hu smiled and shook his head: "It will definitely be a bit disappointing, but it will be the same for anyone."

As he said that, he suddenly asked, "Brother, if it was Second Brother who made the breakthrough, what would you be thinking at this moment?"

After hearing this, Changya thought about it carefully and said, "The second and third brothers have become leaders, but I am the only one who has not made a breakthrough. I must feel a little unhappy."

"That's it."

Qi Hu smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, my second brother is very clear-headed, let's go"

Say it.

Black fog appeared under Qi Hu's feet and quickly condensed into black clouds, lifting his tall body. Seeing that his elder brother hadn't moved for a long time, he turned his head and saw Chang Ya standing there, his face flushed, staring at his feet, as if he wanted to stare at something to death.
"Brother, what are you doing?"

Qi Hu asked curiously, "Come here quickly."

"I"

Changya's face became redder and redder, and he said, "I'm trying to see if I can fly by myself."

"Clam"

Qi Hu was stunned when he heard the voice, then he realized that his face was red because he was holding it back. He immediately said with a suppressed smile: "Then come back and practice again, brother. Now we need to go see the general first."

"All right."

Changya was not stubborn and immediately approached and jumped onto the black cloud around Qi Hu's feet.

Having said that, Qi Hu immediately rode his cloud straight into the sky above the forest.

Rushed out of the forest.

Qi Hu then said: "Brother, now you know how to practice the art of flying and escaping, right?"

Changya nodded: "I understand."

As he said this, he immediately remembered something and asked, "Third brother, can you tell me about yesterday's problem now?"

"Oh"

Qi Hu said: "What's the problem?"

Changya: "Why is there a black cloud under your feet, while the big chief and Man Guts' leaders have black fog? And the general and his men have black wind, and our king has white clouds."

“This is easy.”

Hearing his elder brother's question, Qi Hu smiled and said, "This has to do with my and Niu Er Man Gu's understanding and mastery of the art of flying and escaping. When you have practiced and can fly, you will understand it yourself."

"As for the general's Black Wind, the same is true."

"And the king's white clouds"

At this point, Qi Hu looked at the heavy snow all around his head and sighed, "It's different now."

Changya didn't quite understand what he heard, but he still understood the last sentence and immediately asked, "Why is it different?"

“Because he is white.”

After hearing what Qi Hu said, Chang Ya immediately wanted to beat him up.

Qi Hu then asked, "Brother, do you know what color the clouds that the immortals in the sky ride on are?"

Changya hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Is it also white?"

Qi Hu nodded: "I heard that's the case"

Changya immediately said excitedly: "Third brother, do you mean that our king is a god in heaven?"

at the same time.

mountain top,

Inside Jindou Cave.

The wine glass in the hand of the unicorn, who was drinking, suddenly stopped in mid-air.

The Lord is in the sky.

Facing his elder brother's excited questioning, Qi Hu shook his head: "How should I know?"

Changya immediately asked, "Then how do you know that the clouds that the gods ride on are white?"

Qi Hu: "I read it from a book about the human world"

Inside Jindou Cave.

The unicorn finally brought the wine glass to his mouth and drank it all.

Soon.

Qi Hu flew over the main mountain with his long teeth and dived into the next mountain where General Heijiao lived.

Two quarters of an hour later.

Qi Hu flew out of the forest with his elder brother Changya, who had just reported to the general, and flew towards the east of the main mountain where their cave was located.

Fly all the way back to the edge of the cliff.

Qi Hu and Chang Ya smelled the fragrance coming from the cave before they even landed.

"smell good"

"Little boy, what delicious food did you cook this time?"

Changya spoke loudly and walked into the cave first. As his cultivation level increased, his temper seemed to have also increased. He used to call Liu Bin, but now he just called him little ghost.

But the henchman Liu Bin had his own temper. He immediately turned his head and used the displacement of his facial features to intimidate Changya and express his dissatisfaction.

Qi Hu raised his hand and took out ten large wine jars. He looked at his second brother Da Jiao and said with a smile: "I won't go home until I'm drunk today."

"Yes, I won't go home until I'm drunk."

Changya shouted at the side, then he thought of something, and immediately looked at Qi Hu and asked: "Third brother, you said I want to borrow some wine from the general, can I borrow it?"

Hear this.

Qi Hu suddenly laughed.

He had just taken his eldest brother to report, and before leaving, he borrowed some wine from the general. He didn't want his eldest brother to have such thoughts, so he could only shake his head and smile: "Although I don't know, I suggest that you better give up this idea."

He was able to borrow it because of his current cultivation, strength and status.

And the eldest brother, who has just become the leader, has nothing, so what can he borrow?
"Third brother, what you said makes sense."

After careful thinking, Changya quickly figured it out.

Qi Hu nodded and said nothing more. He asked the general to borrow wine not just for the three brothers to drink today.

What’s more important is to save it for tomorrow.

Because he wanted to invite Niu Er, Da Ge, Man Gu, Shi She, Hu Zichang and other leading monsters to come and have a drink together, and introduce the new leader's eldest brother.

Let the eldest brother integrate into the circle of leader monsters more quickly, and introduce him to some scientific things he should know to become a leader.

and also.

Qi Hu was not planning to bring his elder and second brothers with him when he went to Chechi State this time.

Because he is not ready to leave completely and never come back.

Therefore, the little demons under his command still need to be looked after by the eldest and second brothers.

Now that the One-horned Rhinoceros King is here, Jindou Mountain is very stable. He can make a profit from the seventy or eighty little demons under his command every time they pay spiritual taxes, which is still considerable in a year.

In addition, now that the eldest brother has become the leader, there will definitely be little monsters to share, and there will also be a lot of spiritual tax income.

As for his second brother, he believed that he would definitely be able to break through, it was just a matter of time, and then he would be able to get more spiritual taxes.

This was almost all picked up for free.

So there's no need to leave in a hurry.

As for himself, he now has three leader-level ghosts and monsters, which is enough help for the time being.

"Third brother, what are you thinking about?"

At this time, Da Jiao handed over the wine bowl. Qi Hu didn't think about it anymore, and the three brothers started drinking.

The drinking lasted until late at night.

Changya and Dajiao, who were drunk, fell asleep directly in the Qihu Cave.

Early the next morning.

Qi Hu then sent his bird demon to the former Snake Neck Ridge territory to notify the garrison leader.

Changya personally invited the leaders on the main mountain one by one.

After the big competition a few days ago, his current reputation has become well-known throughout the huge Jindou Mountain.

He is even more famous among the direct descendants of Jindou Mountain.

No leader would refuse his respect.

Even the leader Niu Er, who is always aloof and rarely invited, promised to arrive on time.

So it was just after noon.

In the cave on the edge of the cliff, all five invited leader monsters arrived.

Next, at the wine table.

With the eldest brother Changya's cheerful personality, there was no need for Qi Hu to introduce him, Changya quickly became familiar with the group of leading monsters.

The drinking lasted until late at night or early morning before the party finally ended.

The concept of growing teeth also quickly changed from the perspective of a little demon in the Qi Ling Realm to the cognition of a leading demon in the Tong Ling Realm.

over the next few days.

Changya also took over the responsibilities of the new leader from the big leader Niu Er very smoothly, with 30 or 40 small demons to command, armor and weapons, as well as the tasks and trivia of the leader.
Changya suddenly broke through and became the leader, and caused some movement among the little monsters of Jindou Mountain.

It is inconspicuous compared to the entire huge Jindou Mountain.

With the information coming and going from the ghost monk who stayed behind in Chechi State, Qi Hu was not in a hurry to leave.

But continue to wait.

He was waiting for news that his second brother Da Jiao would break through and become the leader.

But after waiting for a month, the second brother did not advance. Instead, he received news from the evil monk Fa Ming that there were monsters harassing and eating people in Chechi country.

then.

Qi Hu couldn't wait any longer.

The day before departure.

evening.

In a cave on the edge of a cliff.

Qi Hu and his three brothers Changya and Dajiao sat around the fire pit, eating meat and drinking wine.

The wine is half full.

Qi Hu looked at Da Jiao and said, "Second brother, you know I asked the general for leave. I wanted to wait for you to break through before I went to the human world. It seems that I can't wait now. I will leave tomorrow. I can only come back in the future to drink your wine again!"

My third brother had some trouble outside and he had mentioned it to me and my eldest brother vaguely before.

Da Jiao knew it naturally, and did not ask any more questions. He raised the bowl and said with a smile: "Third brother is going to do great things. Second brother can't help you now. When second brother breaks through, he will be able to help you. Third brother can't hide it from me and eldest brother at that time!"

"that is!"

Changya raised his bowl and immediately replied, "Brother is waiting. Come on, drink."

Qi Hu didn't care that his second and eldest brothers had guessed something. He had revealed it on purpose, otherwise it would be difficult to explain it to others. So he smiled and said, "I'll remember it. I'll tell my two brothers when the time comes."

"Come on, do it"

"I won't stop drinking tonight."

Early the next morning.

Looking at the eldest and second brothers who were sleeping soundly beside the fire pit.

Qi Hu did not wake them up. He captured the accomplice Liu Bin, quietly left the cave, and flew towards the western sky.

After flying away from the vast territory of Jindou Mountain.

Qi Hu immediately turned around, made a big circle, and then turned around and rushed towards the east where Che Chi Kingdom was.
