Journey to the West: Black Six Ears

Snapped!

Everyone was startled when the fake monkey suddenly disappeared.

Pigsy clutched his chest and said:

"I never imagined that monkey possessed such teleportation skills; it's truly elusive and frightening."

Xuanzang was somewhat surprised.

I've never seen Sun Wukong be so decisive in his actions before.

Normally, when you ask him to do something, you always have to say a few sarcastic or sarcastic things first.

His complete silence this time is quite puzzling.

"Wukong has grown up too."

Xuanzang nodded to himself.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, a sound of tearing and fighting rang out outside.

The sound immediately attracted everyone's attention. Qingfeng and Mingyue exchanged a glance and were immediately shocked.

The sounds of a struggle seemed to be coming from a ginseng fruit orchard!

Without hesitation, the two young Taoist boys turned around and rushed towards the ginseng fruit garden.

The two of them went to the garden again, only to find that the tree had fallen and the fruit had not fallen. They were so frightened that Qingfeng's legs went weak and he fell to the ground, and Mingyue's waist was so soft that she was covered in dirt.

Those two were utterly terrified, as evidenced by the poem.

The poem reads: The monk Sanzang journeyed west to Longevity Mountain, Wukong severed the elixir of immortality. Leaves fell, revealing the root of the immortal; the bright moon and gentle breeze chilled the heart.

The two of them collapsed to the ground, their words incoherent, crying out, "What's wrong! What's wrong! You've ruined the alchemist of my Wuzhuang Temple, severing the lineage of our immortals! How are we supposed to explain this to our master when he comes home?"

But after some deliberation, they drew up a path.

Before they could return, a sudden gale arose on the other side, with yellow sand filling the sky and engulfing the entire Wuzhuang Temple.

The two were swept away by the strong wind and fell to the ground.

When the storm subsided, the place was in disarray, but it had not suffered any damage.

The only exception was the five members of the pilgrimage team who had been inside the room; they had all disappeared.

"Qingfeng, they stole the ginseng fruit and ran away!"

Mingyue let out a loud cry, her voice filled with sobs.

At that moment, Xuanzang's vision blurred as well.

When I opened my eyes again, the quiet room had transformed into a jungle.

"What's going on?"

Xuanzang was startled. If it weren't for the presence of the Yellow Wind King and others, he probably would have fallen over long ago.

King Yellow Wind stepped forward, helped Xuanzang up, and laughed:

"Holy monk, do not panic, I did this."

Upon hearing this, Xuanzang immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He genuinely believed that something had gone wrong over there, and that they had been captured by a monster.

"Why did Your Majesty do this?"

Xuanzang looked puzzled.

Pigsy grabbed his arm, his face full of displeasure:

"Brother, why are you like this? With the Dragon Girl protecting us, how can we not be at peace?"

Upon hearing what Zhu Bajie said, Xuanzang was first taken aback, then his expression changed drastically.

He's not stupid. As soon as Pigsy said that, everyone knew they were definitely involved in stealing the ginseng fruit.

"You, is it really you? We are monks, we should not eat food that goes against our conscience. If you did eat it, then apologize to him. Why are you denying it and running away like this?"

Xuanzang, of course, had no idea that Sun Wukong had knocked down the ginseng fruit tree.

Although I knew this fruit was extraordinary, I didn't think it was a big deal; at worst, I could just compensate the other party with some things.

But the Yellow Wind Monster, having heard Sun Qiong's words, simply shook his head and explained to Xuanzang:

"Holy Monk, you may not know this, but there is a reason why I took you away."

After saying that, he pointed to the Wuzhuang Temple in the distance.

Following his finger, everyone looked and saw that there seemed to be traces of battle on it.

"I just peeked at it, and that monkey knocked down someone's ginseng fruit tree. That was a real treasure, and we couldn't afford to pay it back even if we sold it."

Upon hearing this, Xuanzang turned pale.

He reached out and grabbed the Yellow Wind King's arm, saying in a panic:

"Your Majesty, what should we do?"

Upon hearing Xuanzang's words, the Yellow Wind King simply shook his head:

"We can't repay this debt. If we want to resolve it, we'll have to ask Guanyin Bodhisattva for help."

Please pray to the Bodhisattva?

Xuanzang's heart stirred, and he immediately suppressed his sobs.

If this matter can be resolved and won't hinder the rest of the journey to the West, asking the Bodhisattva for help might not be a bad thing.

But who will go?

Xuanzang glanced at Zhu Bajie.

"I'll go."

King Yellow Wind glanced at Pigsy.

If this pig were to go to Mount Putuo, it would take at least one or two days, which won't do.

That would cause delays.

Besides, King Huangfeng also knew that although he had joined the pilgrimage team on the surface, in reality, if the higher-ups really wanted to get rid of him, it would only take a few minutes.

Especially Guanyin, if she were to make a move, it would be too easy for her to subdue the Yellow Wind King.

This trip to face Guanyin Bodhisattva was also voluntary on his part.

The original plan was indeed to send Pigsy, although it would be slower, but what had already happened was unavoidable.

Furthermore, it is also necessary to give Zhenyuan Daxian some time to prepare, which is also part of Sun Qiong's plan.

"In that case, go and come back quickly."

Xuanzang nodded quickly.

He didn't want to cause trouble; his biggest dream was to travel safely to obtain the scriptures.

King Yellow Wind nodded and disappeared into the horizon on a cloud.

The battle between the Dragon Girl and Wukong didn't last long either.

They fought from night until day, still arguing, when suddenly a cloud drifted down from the sky.

"Stop! Who dares to cause trouble in my Taoist temple?"

His voice was booming, and with just one sentence, he carried an immense magical power that was impossible to resist.

Upon hearing this, the Dragon Girl immediately became alert, retrieved the precious pearl, took a few steps back, and bowed to the clouds in the sky.

"Great Immortal, please calm your anger. I am the Dragon Girl of Good Fortune, and I have come specifically for this monkey."

The Dragon Girl did not directly mention the name of Guanyin Bodhisattva.

But Zhen Yuanzi immediately recognized that this dragon girl was the one who served Guanyin Bodhisattva at Mount Putuo in the South China Sea.

However, Zhen Yuanzi was also somewhat surprised at this moment, as his targets were Xuanzang and Sun Wukong.

Judging from the current situation, the plan seems to have succeeded, but it also seems not so successful.

Not understanding the specifics, Zhen Yuanzi descended from the sky and did not rush to reveal the Dragon Girl's identity. Instead, he looked at Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong sheathed his iron cudgel and pointed a single finger at Zhen Yuanzi:

"Who are you? I, Old Sun, am enjoying a wonderful time, why are you interrupting me?"

Zhen Yuanzi gave a half-smile, then turned to look at the two young disciples at his feet.

Qingfeng and Mingyue hurriedly stepped forward and explained the whole story.

The immortal pointed and laughed, "You mischievous monkey! Who are you trying to fool? You stormed into my temple, knocked down my ginseng fruit tree, and fought here all night. Why don't you confess? What are you trying to hide? Don't say any more! Go and return my tree to me right now!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong was enraged. He drew his iron cudgel and, without further ado, struck the immortal on the head.

The immortal dodged to the side, stepped on auspicious light, and soared into the sky. The pilgrim also rode the clouds and hurried after him.

The immortal revealed his true form in mid-air; look how he dressed:

Wearing a purple-gold crown and a carefree crane-feather cloak, she treads on shoes, a silk ribbon cinching her waist. Her body is like that of a child, her face like that of a beauty. Three whiskers flutter beneath her chin, and raven feathers adorn her temples. She greets the traveler unarmed, holding only a jade whisk in her hand.

That monkey Sun Wukong was indiscriminate, hitting people randomly with his stick.

The immortal used his jade whisk to block him from the left and right, managing to defeat him for two or three rounds. Then, using a technique called "Universe in the Sleeve," he lightly unfurled his robe sleeves in the wind from the clouds and swept forward, trapping the immortal in one sleeve.

Having finished his business, the Great Immortal wasn't in a hurry to say anything to the Dragon Girl. He simply nodded, turned around, and leaped into the forest.

Before long, Zhenyuan Daxian spread his sleeves and produced five people.

Xuanzang and his party, who had already left, were not spared either. Except for the Yellow Wind King who had left, everyone else was captured and brought back.

They were all tied up, one by one.

However, the immortal did not rush to attack Xuanzang. Instead, he beckoned the dragon girl into the hall.

As the dragon girl passed by the monkey, she asked hesitantly:

"Are you Sun Wukong?"

"snort!"

Sun Wukong snorted coldly and turned his head away, ignoring her.

The Dragon Girl, on the contrary, looked utterly bewildered.

He had realized by now that the opponent he had been fighting all night was probably not the Six-Eared Macaque.

Where did the six-eared macaque go?

Zhenyuan Daxian chuckled and said to Mingyue:

"Mingyue, lead the guests into the main hall. I have something to discuss with Qingfeng."

Qingfeng immediately raised his head and followed in Zhenyuan Daxian's footsteps.
