Journey to the West: Upon seeing the Yellow-Eyebrowed Demon, why not pay homage?

Chapter 150 Catching the Adulterer, the Traitor of Fire Cloud Cave!

"No, no—" the gods responded humbly in their subconscious, then suddenly realized what was happening.

Who?

Yellow Eyebrows?

Is this the Great Celestial Venerable's Imperial Envoy, Lord Yellow Eyebrows?

As the saying goes, "Ducks are the first to know when the river warms in spring."

For the gods living among humans, the sudden appearance of a human envoy was naturally of great concern to them.

In fact, when the news first broke, the gods of the Earthly Immortal Realm were in an uproar. Some gods were panicked, some were terrified, and some were filled with emotion—but no god was happy.

After all, this imperial envoy is like the censor in a human dynasty, possessing the ability to strip them of their divine status or even their lives at any time.

You claim to be incorruptible, neither greedy nor greedy?

So, was there any dereliction of duty? Was there any negligence in governance?

Is there any social etiquette or reciprocal interaction involved?

If you are caught red-handed even for the slightest reason, it could be a fatal disaster.

For this reason, out of reverence for the imperial authority's special permission and the principle of acting first and reporting later, the mountain gods and local deities in the cave, after regaining their senses, all knelt down and kowtowed, shouting, "This humble god pays respects to Lord Yellow Eyebrows."

Huang Mei raised his hand and smiled, "No need for formalities, rise."

The gods then stood up nervously, bowing their heads and waiting for instructions, not even daring to ask a question.

Huang Mei observed their behavior and said gently, "There is no need for you to panic. I am here today not to support Hong Hai'er, nor will I help him bully you."

On the contrary, I'm here to set things right. Red Boy, why aren't you apologizing to the mountain gods and local deities?

"Yes, Master."

Red Boy responded and then bowed deeply to the gods: "Everyone, I was young and reckless before, and I offended you. I'm sorry."

The gods all stepped aside, and one of the mountain gods flattered, "What are you saying, Holy Infant? We are neighbors, and it is only right for neighbors to help each other. We helped you before, and we may need your help in the future."

"Yes, yes, Holy Infant, you're too kind. We're all on the same side," the other deities chimed in.

Looking at his neighbors who had suddenly become incredibly understanding, Red Boy deeply felt the wonder of power.

He used to be able to command the mountain gods and local deities, but these gods were always silent, each one like a piece of wood that had come to life.

He had assumed that it was simply the nature of these deities.

But now it seems that even if a piece of wood becomes a spirit, power can forcibly change its nature!

"So it's a misunderstanding?" Huang Mei asked with a smile from the seat of honor.

"It's a misunderstanding," the mountain gods said.

"Thank you for your trouble, Lord Lao," the land deities said.

Huang Mei waved his hand and said with a smile, "Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, it's a happy ending for everyone."

Red Boy, let the little demons bring out the food and wine. You should spend some quality time with your kind and lovely neighbors and have a good drink.

"Yes, sir," Red Boy said respectfully.

A short while later.

Inside the Fire Cloud Cave, wine cups were clinked, laughter filled the air, and the atmosphere was lively and cheerful.

Outside the Fire Cloud Cave, the demons, drawn by the aroma of food and wine, kept swallowing their saliva.

Of the six minor leaders, Quick as the Wind quietly left the mountainside and arrived at the foot of the mountain in the blink of an eye, about to head south.

"Where are you going?" Suddenly, a voice rang in his ear.

Quick as the wind, his heart pounded. He turned around hastily and caught sight of a figure in the shadows of the mountain. He whispered tentatively, "Lord Yellow Eyebrows?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Mei slowly emerged from the shadows, summoned a chime mallet with a flick of his wrist, and transformed it into a hard wooden stick: "Confess honestly, and you may live."

Kuai Rufeng felt a chill in his heart, but his face was full of smiles: "Reporting to you, sir, I was just tempted by the aroma of wine and meat, and I wanted to go down the mountain to find a restaurant to have a good meal."

Huang Mei smiled, then suddenly flung out a hard wooden stick.

"Snapped!"

The hardwood stick struck Kuai Rufeng's face hard, sending him flying. Three teeth fell out of his mouth as he flew through the air.

"Bang."

Upon landing, the excruciating pain instantly filled his eyes with tears, but he dared not hesitate for a moment, hurriedly asking incoherently, "My lord, why is this happening?"

"Although those dishes and wine weren't prepared for you, Red Boy never said you couldn't steal them. The other demons have already had their fill, and you're the only one with such high moral character?"

Huang Mei sneered, walked over and stepped on his chest, gently pressing the hard wooden stick against his forehead: "I'll say it one last time, confess honestly and you can live."

In fact, this is still a presumption of guilt.

When he first arrived at Drill Mountain, he heard that this fellow was instigating Red Boy to capture Tang Sanzang in order to win the favor of the Bull Demon King, and he became somewhat suspicious.

Now, the other party's sneaky behavior only confirms this suspicion!

"Reporting back to you, sir, the main reason I dared not eat too much was because I wanted to indulge myself—" Kuai Rufeng explained tremblingly.

Huang Mei sneered, and without hesitation, he unleashed a barrage of blows with his hardwood stick, striking the opponent so fast that the opponent clutched his head and screamed in agony.

As he screamed, excruciating pain shot through his body, and he felt like he was dying. Kuai Rufeng suddenly realized that if he didn't confess honestly, he would be beaten to death right here!

"Sir, please stop hitting me! Please stop hitting me! I'll tell you everything!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Mei silently stopped fighting: "Speak!"

No. 1 mountaintop.

Fire Cloud Cave.

Just as Red Boy was feeling a bit smug from the praise of the gods, he suddenly caught a glimpse of his master approaching swiftly, who casually tossed him into the center of the banquet.

Upon closer inspection, it became clear that Quick as the Wind had been beaten black and blue, and had lost several teeth.

at the same time.

The gods were startled by the swift sound of the landing, turned their eyes in the direction of the sound, and all fell silent.

"Master, what's wrong?" Red Boy stood up and asked.

Huang Mei said calmly, "Quick as the wind, repeat what you just told me."

Swift as the wind immediately knelt upright and kowtowed heavily: "Your Majesty, I am sorry; I am guilty, I admit my mistake!"

"Stop talking nonsense," Huang Mei said.

Kuai Rufeng paused for a moment, then said softly, "I was bewitched by Guanyin and asked the king to hunt Tang Sanzang at the right time."

Huang Mei kicked him: "Don't tell me half, leave it at that."

Kuai Rufeng had no choice but to confess: "Just now, I was thinking of going down the mountain to find Guanyin and tell her that you have resolved your grievances with the local earth god and mountain god —"

Upon hearing this, Red Boy felt a chill run down his spine, and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

No wonder the usually impulsive and swift-as-the-wind person suddenly became clever and came up with the idea of ​​snatching flowers to offer to the Buddha. It turns out that this was still Guanyin's arrangement!

Beside them, the mountain gods and local deities looked at each other, their hearts trembling as well.

How come this involves Guanyin Bodhisattva?

What storm have they gotten themselves into?

"You fast as the wind, huh? I've treated you well all this time, and this is how you repay me?"

What did Guanyin promise you that made you betray me despite our gratitude?

After regaining his senses, Red Boy flew into a rage, grabbed his gun, jumped over the table, and coldly questioned him.
