You, a monster, still want to travel to the West?

And at this time——

call! ! ! !

Beneath the clouds, a gust of black wind formed a tornado, carrying countless water mists and rushing towards the girl!

Noticing this situation, Xiao Qingxin tilted her head, took out a paper umbrella from her sleeve, opened it and leaned it against her shoulder.

An instant later, the black wind tornado came roaring, and unsurprisingly, it didn't even blow her hair, but it successfully blocked her cloud path.

The black wind swept for a while, but seeing that it could not do anything to her, a demon quickly emerged from the wind, extremely ugly, and he saw him -

Neither blue nor black, it has an unlucky look on its face.

Not too long, not too short, bare feet and strong body.

His eyes flickered like twin lamps under a stove.

The corners of his mouth are as sharp as a butcher's fire pot.

Fangs support the sword blade, and red hair is messy and disheveled.

The demon held a magic staff in his hand. When he saw Xiao Qingxin, he raised his staff and attacked, shouting, "Run away! Leave behind some food!"

Xiao Qingxin was stunned when she heard this. She reached out and handed over the half handful of ginkgo nuts she was holding. She said blankly, "You... want it?"

Seeing her cooperation, the monster froze in his tracks, his staff raised to attack. He froze in place awkwardly, then put away his staff, raised his hands, and took the Buddha fruit she handed him, saying, "Thank you... Thank you..."

"Are you hungry?"

"I'm sorry for the kindness, young lady. I'm really hungry."

"What's your name?"

"Sha Wujing."

Chapter 192 Tribulation

Above the Liusha River, at dusk.

Sha Wujing held up his hands and respectfully took the Buddha fruit, and when Xiao Qingxin asked, he gave his name.

After saying this, Sha Wujing didn't care about anything. He clenched the half handful of nuts in his hand, stuffed them into his mouth, and started chewing them, including the shell and the flesh.

Boom~!

Crunch! A teeth-aching chewing sound rang out!

Seeing how hungry he looked, Xiao Qingxin opened her mouth slightly and was about to give him some more food, but she found that the white snake in her arms slowly moved its body, quickly slipped to her neck and stuck its head out.

Seeing this, Xiao Qingxin put away the paper umbrella in her hand, turned around and said softly: "Zhiming, it's just a very hungry monster, don't blame him."

"Good~"

Xia Zhiming nuzzled her cheek, stuck his tongue out, and said, "General Juanlian, it's not a good idea to snatch snacks from children, is it?"

"You are……"

Hearing this name, Sha Wujing was stunned for a moment. Looking at the little girl and the white snake in front of him, past memories surfaced in his mind. He said blankly: "Lihentian Guardian Lingguan..."

"You are the general who smashed the glass lamp!" Xiao Qingxin also stared at him with wide eyes, looking very surprised.

The demon in front of her looked more like a demon than a demon. Forgive her for not knowing how to describe Monk Sha's appearance. In short, he was extremely vicious, without any trace of the god he once was.

Sha Wujing bowed and said, "It is me, Sha."

Xia Zhiming spat out a snake letter: "You still remember us?"

Sha Wujing smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Who among the immortals in Lingxiao Palace would forget you?"

He had been guarding the Lingxiao Palace for countless years and had seen all kinds of scenes, big and small. However, only Qingxin, an immortal who looked like a Taoist child, had entered the Lingxiao Palace and had blatantly set a precedent for establishing a sinecure.

"You do know how to talk."

Xia Zhiming wagged his tail, and a basket of steaming meat buns fell from the sky and landed in his hands.

On the opposite side, Sha Wujing didn't care whether the meat bun was vegetarian or not. He sat down on the cloud, grabbed the meat bun and gobbled it up.

Seeing that he looked so hungry, Xia Zhiming didn't ask any questions in a hurry. He just shook his tail and handed him another basket of meat buns.

After a long while, when Sha Wujing was so full that he couldn't eat any more, Xia Zhiming finally said jokingly, "Now that you're full, isn't it time to settle the score for the robbers?"

Sha Wujing stood up awkwardly, bowed, and said, "Forgive me, Immortal. I have been banished to this Flowing Sand River, where no birds fly or fish swim. I was starving, and when I saw you passing by with food, I had this evil thought."

"You don't eat people now?"

"I used to eat people, but recently I have been enlightened by the Bodhisattva and have been waiting for the pilgrim to come here to seek the scriptures. I have sincerely converted to Buddhism and no longer eat people."

"Reforming one's ways is indeed commendable, but..."

Xia Zhiming spat out his snake tongue and asked with a smile: "How long do you think you can keep doing this?"

A month and a half ago, the Bodhisattva went from Lingshan to Chang'an. It must have been at that time that Sha Wujing was enlightened by the Bodhisattva and made up his mind not to eat humans anymore.

But only a short period of time has passed, and he has already started to have evil intentions and has begun to attack people and steal food. If he continues like this, it won't be surprising if he returns to the days of cannibalism.

Across from him, Sha Wujing clearly understood this as well. After a pause, he replied honestly, "I don't know how long I can hold on..."

Hearing him say this, Xiaoqing thought for a moment, then pinched the white snake's tail on her shoulder and asked in confusion, "Zhiming, the Bodhisattva advised him to be good, so why didn't you leave him a way out?"

Xia Zhiming laughed upon hearing this. He pointed at the embarrassed Sha Wujing in front of him and said, "He was demoted from his immortal body. He was flawless and perfect. He couldn't die of starvation."

"It was only because I couldn't resist my cravings and ate people that I became this demon. Now, after all the hard work of being enlightened by the Bodhisattva, I'm still not sincere and ran out to intercept your snacks."

Sha Wujing lowered his head and remained speechless.

Seeing him speechless, Xiao Qingxin didn't know she had been deceived, and puffed up her cheeks in anger - she had just realized that there were immortals and gods who could fall to such a level.

Seeing her like a pufferfish, Xia Zhiming stretched out his tail and poked her little face, saying cheerfully: "Be good~ Don't be angry, don't be angry."

"Hmph~!"

Xiao Qingxin snorted and turned her head away, not wanting to bother with the demon anymore.

Seeing this, Xia Zhiming transformed into a humanoid form, picked up the little girl who had jumped into his arms, and touched her head. Then he turned to look at the trembling Sha Wujing and asked with a smile: "Have you ever seen a dragon cultivating in this quicksand river?"

“Yes, I have.”

Sha Wujing nodded repeatedly and replied respectfully, "That evil dragon lurks at the bottom of the Flowing Sand River. Its ten-thousand-foot-long body stretches across the entire river, and its movements are filled with overwhelming power."

"For hundreds of years, I've avoided him, fearing he'd devour me someday. However, he's been asleep most of the time, and when he does go out, it's only for a day or two, so he's never caused me any trouble."

Hearing him say this, Xia Zhiming nodded and no longer cared about Monk Sha. He descended from the clouds with Xiao Qingxin in his arms and came to the 800-li Quicksand River.

In his arms, Xiao Qingxin saw him coming to look for someone. After a moment of thought, he put his two fingers together, closed his eyes and chanted for a while. When the fingertips lit up with brilliant divine light, he pointed at the river and saw -

Three thousand weak waters are opened with a single finger, and the quicksand waves are divided on both sides.

With the magical power of turning the river into land, the Great Sage who covers the sea appears.

Summary: One finger opens the river.

At the bottom of the Quicksand River, Demon King Peng noticed the river suddenly parting. His bloodshot eyes instantly opened, and he suddenly raised his ten-thousand-foot-tall dragon body. As his massive body moved, it stirred up an endless gust of wind and roared, "Who is messing with me?"

After saying this, the Jiao Demon King leaned over to look at the river bank, only to see Xiao Qingxin looking up and saying obediently, "It's me."

Xia Zhiming also raised his head, looked at the stunned Jiao Demon King in front of him, and said with a smile: "Stop pretending, come down and talk."

"Hahahaha!"

The Dragon Demon King suddenly laughed loudly, his body resounding for a hundred miles. He flashed and transformed into a mighty man in a python robe. He instantly landed beside the two men and said, "I was wondering why my left eyelid was twitching today. It turns out an old friend is here."

In his arms, Xiao Qingxin bowed and returned the greeting.

Xia Zhiming smiled and said, "Little girl, I was passing by here and was robbed. I came to see you."

"You were robbed here..." The Dragon Demon King was puzzled for a moment, then reacted and asked tentatively: "That insignificant monk Sha?"

Xiao Qingxin puffed up her cheeks and nodded obediently.

Xia Zhiming raised his eyebrows in indication.

The Dragon Demon King immediately understood and waved his hand, saying generously: "Alright, alright, I know what you mean. When he comes back, I'll help you beat him up. Anything else?"

"There's good news. The monkey will be coming out of the mountain soon. It should be this month or so."

“!!!”——The Dragon Demon King was shocked.

"One more thing. When he comes out, help me rob his road as well."

“???”——Question mark from the Dragon Demon King?

Chapter 193: Great Celestial Lord: One day in heaven is one year on earth! I forgot!!!

Under the night sky and the starry sky, the quicksand river water, no longer bound by magical powers, suddenly closed up, making a rumbling sound and splashing endless waves.

On the riverbank, the Dragon King looked at his friend, whose expression didn't seem fake. After a moment's thought, he waved his hand and said, "That monkey comes and goes like the wind and clouds. How can I catch up with him? What kind of disaster is that?"

Xia Zhiming pondered for a moment, then said, "It's a long story. To put it simply, the monkey was inspired by Guanyin Bodhisattva to protect a mortal as he journeyed across mountains and rivers, overcoming 81 difficulties, to the Great Leiyin Temple on Lingshan Mountain in the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures."

"And you asked me to go up and cause more trouble?"

The Jiao Demon King pointed at himself and asked doubtfully, "White Snake, did that Monkey Head offend you? Why do I feel like you're always trying to trick him?"

Xiao Qingxin covered her mouth: "Puff~"

Xia Zhiming looked up at the sky: "I didn't, I wasn't, don't talk nonsense."

The Dragon Demon King shook his head helplessly, thought for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "Although I don't like those bald donkeys, the monkey finally got out of the Five Elements Mountain, and it's a good thing that he can get this blessing. I don't understand what the point of your actions is other than to cause trouble."

"What do you think of that monkey's abilities?"

"His cultivation is unparalleled, and his power is unmatched."

"What you said makes sense. So where in the world can we find eighty-one demon kings who can fight him?"

Xia Zhiming reached out and patted his shoulder, saying happily, "Tell me, how can this be called cheating him? I'm actually helping him cultivate!"

The Jiao Demon King said with a strange look on his face: "White Snake, I think you are just here to watch the fun and not mind getting involved."

"So, will you help me with this?"

"Forget it. I'll talk to my brothers about this tomorrow and pretend to help him gather six disasters."

After hearing this, Xia Zhiming thought for a moment and then shook his head and said sternly, "If you want to be serious, don't just let them off so easily. It would be best if Heaven or Lingshan came to rescue them. With luck, I can give you a positive result."

The Dragon Demon King waved his hand: "After so many years, most of us have achieved success in our cultivation and have already obtained human bodies. The true fruit is not far away, so it doesn't matter."

Xia Zhiming shook his head upon hearing this. "Back then, the monkey slew countless evil demons in the caves, achieving his goal and ascending to the Heavenly Palace. Yet, in the end, he was only given the title of Horse Keeper. Have you ever forgotten this?"

"what do you mean……"

"There's a saying: 'Kill people and set fires and wait for the emperor's order.' Now that you all have immense magical powers and are determined to follow the right path, why don't you follow the example of the monkeys of yesteryear?"

The Jiao Demon King's eyes suddenly lit up, and he laughed loudly, clapping his hands and saying, "Good for you, White Snake! It's worth making friends with you!"

He understood it clearly. The so-called eighty-one difficulties were simply Xia Zhiming's joke. But even if he was joking, this was actually a good opportunity - after all, he had two people to back him up, so no matter how much trouble he made, nothing serious would happen.

Thinking of this, the Dragon Demon King waved his hand with great enthusiasm and said, "It's settled. When those people from the west come, I will not let them cross my quicksand river so easily!"

Hearing this, Xia Zhiming nodded with satisfaction - he had finally fooled him.

In his arms, Xiao Qingxin pinched his ear with a strange look on her face - although she felt that what Xia Zhiming said made sense, she always felt that he had bad intentions.

At this moment, Xia Zhiming looked up at the starry sky, thought for a moment, and then said, "Is there a water palace in your Liusha River? Can I borrow your place to stay?"

The Dragon Demon King waved his hand and said disdainfully, "I have locked myself in the Weak Water and cut off all external desires. How can I afford such luxuries? Just go back to sleep."

Hearing him say this, Xia Zhiming let out a light sigh, rubbed the girl's cheek in his arms, and then transformed back into a snake and hung on her shoulder.

In mid-air, Xiao Qingxin immediately understood, bowed and said goodbye to the Dragon Demon King, then swam in a circle like a fish, and then rose into the clouds and flew towards the west.

At the original spot, the Dragon Demon King watched the man and the snake go away until they could no longer be seen. Then he transformed back into a ten-thousand-foot-long dragon body, and with boundless power, he blasted away the eight-hundred-mile river water with his tail. Ignoring the huge waves, he plunged directly into the abyss.

Above the clouds, Sha Wujing, who had been hiding for a long time, couldn't help swallowing his saliva after seeing this scene - fortunately, he had been hiding far away in the river all these years. With the power of the dragon demon just splitting the river with its tail, he would be no match for it in just a few hits if he went up.

After a long while, when the flood that had spread to the shore had flowed back, Sha Wujing carefully landed on the river surface, looking at the slightly turbid water. Just as he was about to jump in, he saw a dragon's tail at the bottom of the river, stirring up endless waves, and suddenly it fell on him!

boom! ! !

“Ah!!!!”——A scream!

Accompanied by a deafening bang, Sha Wujing felt a sharp pain all over his body as if it was shattered. Then the world spun before his eyes, and his body floated on the river in an instant.
