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

"I know, I won't do such things again."

"I don't believe it~"

"Qingxin, I'm not that diligent~"

Qingxin tilted her head and thought about the White Snake in the past, then nodded doubtfully, then took Xia Zhiming's hands in her hands and placed them on her small shoulders.

Xia Zhiming immediately understood and placed the wine pot in her arms. Bai followed her instructions and transformed back into a snake, circling her shoulders twice. Then he stretched out his snake body and chuckled:

"Where are you taking me?"

"Returning to Sanxing Cave?"

"Why don't you take me to find the monkey?"

"Let's go tomorrow."

"it is good."

While chatting, the man and the snake decided on their itinerary and were about to leave on their cloud when they heard a shout from behind: "Wait a minute."

The man and the snake turned their heads immediately and saw Guanyin Bodhisattva holding the Jade Pure Bottle, coming to them on a cloud. She looked helplessly at the Qingping Sword in Qingxin's arms, and then smiled at Xia Zhiming and said:

"I never thought that a little snake like you could be so powerful, slaughtering all the demons in a city in half an hour. If I had come a little later, I'm afraid I would have let you go."

"The Bodhisattva is overpraising me. I only rely on my divine weapons."

"Lingbao Tianzun used this sword to perform his teachings, but he didn't expect to give it to you. I guess you also have another destiny."

Xia Zhiming nodded. He probably didn't let the Bodhisattva see the three saints' incarnations last time they appeared in his dream, so he didn't dare say anything more. He just turned around and asked, "Bodhisattva, is it possible that Monk Jin Guang has achieved enlightenment?"

The Bodhisattva simply shook his head and smiled, saying, "He has his own destiny, but you still need to maintain this dream for a while longer."

Xia Zhiming nodded. He would have to practice in his dreams after returning to Sanxing Cave, so it didn’t matter.

At this time, Guanyin Bodhisattva stretched out her hand and picked up the willow branch in the jade bottle. A drop of crystal clear water fell from the willow branch, floated in the air, and slowly fell into the wine pot in Qingxin's arms.

Seeing this scene, Xia Zhiming and Qing Xin tilted their heads, but heard the Bodhisattva speak again: "I borrow your dream to save people, so I can't let you see me in vain. I give you this drop of dew, which can keep the wine in this gourd flowing and can also cure diseases and heal injuries."

Xia Zhiming's eyes suddenly lit up. He had not expected such a benefit. He immediately thanked Guanyin Bodhisattva, "Thank you for the generous gift."

"Don't be like this. It is far inferior to the magic weapons in your hands." Guanyin Bodhisattva shook her head, turned around and flew away on a cloud.

Above the clouds, Xia Zhiming looked down at the wine gourd in Qingxin's hand and said with a smile:

"Qingxin, what's your name for this wine gourd?"

"I can't think of it..."

"Then I'll do it! The Yangzhi Ganlu wine gourd?"

“It sounds terrible!!!”

Chapter 46: Substituting one thing for another!

The process of naming the wine gourd was not very smooth. After some intense discussions, we finally decided on the name "Red Jade Gourd", which is a cause for celebration.

But here comes the problem——

"Zhiming, don't you dislike drinking?"

"correct."

"Treatment and healing..."

"If I meet someone who is meant to be with me, I can pour a cup for them. That's fine."

"..."

The man and the snake chatted on the road and soon determined that the infinite wine gourd given by the Bodhisattva was probably just a bonus. Neither of them was the kind of person who liked to fight, so it seemed to be of no use to them.

This time, the journey home was naturally fast without Xia Zhiming flying on his sword to cause trouble, and he even made it to the evening class that day.

In the main hall, all the brothers were interested in seeing the man and the snake who had come back from a long journey, and asked about the monkey's recent situation.

Unfortunately, when the man and the snake talked about how they had let the monkey go, all the brothers laughed and shook their heads.

Xia Zhiming did not intend to explain this. After all, if you really count it, when they came back from their walk, the monkey should have just returned to Huaguo Mountain less than two hours ago.

In the days that followed, there was naturally no trouble in Sanxing Cave. Xia Zhiming's daily routine was nothing more than practicing before midnight and in the afternoon. He would practice his magical skills whenever he had free time. Naturally, the remaining few months passed by very quickly...

until—

——————Waking up from a dream————————

Midnight

The night was dark, and the hazy moonlight shone into Qingxin's room through the window paper.

At a certain moment, Xia Zhiming stretched out his snake body from Qingxin's neck and looked at the little girl in front of him who was meditating with her eyes closed. Under the moonlight, the girl's tender and pretty face was like bright jade.

After a while, when Qingxin opened her confused eyes and looked at the white snake, Xia Zhiming finally said teasingly: "Do you need me to sleep with you today?"

Xiao Qingxin rolled her eyes at him, not paying any attention to his teasing, and stretched out her pink feet.

Whack, snap! Snap! Boom! Snap...

A crisp sound was heard, and Xiao Qingxin froze for a moment. Then she looked towards her bed with wide eyes, only to see -

Gold and silver ingots, jewels, jade, pearls and colored glaze piled up like a small mountain, shining like bright stars under the moonlight...

Seeing her surprised expression, Xia Zhiming rubbed the little girl's cheek with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Remember when you met the Dragon King that time, you stared at the Dragon King's golden robe and jade belt without blinking. Are these jewels enough now?"

"Zhiming, where did this come from?" Xiao Qingxin stretched out her feet and kicked the gold, silver and jewelry at her feet, and asked in surprise.

Xia Zhiming finally nodded in satisfaction, chuckled, and said, "Of course, those are what the Nine Spirit Immortals gave me. Remember to bring some with you when you go out next time, so I don't have to go out to perform."

"But, that wasn't a dream..."

Xiao Qingxin tilted her head and spoke in confusion, but she paused halfway through her words, looked at Xia Zhiming and exclaimed in surprise:

"Forty-nine Chapters of the True Scripture of Cultivation!!!"

"How is it? My body is in harmony with the Tao, and I can move everything in the world with my heart. Doesn't that suit me?"

"Zhiming, you've only been practicing this method for three years..."

"You don't understand the world of geniuses~"

"Humph!!!"

After a little Versailles, Xia Zhiming looked at the gold, silver and jewelry between the bed with satisfaction, not that he really cared about these yellow and white things.

However, this was his first attempt to apply the mental method of "Forty-nine Chapters of the True Scripture of Taoism" to his dreams. He wanted to get something as a reference to see how it would work. Moreover, he did not do much, which only affected the preaching on the mountain top and the Nine Spirit Immortals.

As for why he took away all of Jiu Lingxian's gold, silver and jewelry, it was of course his hard work reward!

As for the monk Jin Guang, since Guanyin Bodhisattva was watching over him, it was naturally not his turn to worry about him, so Xia Zhiming simply took a break, thinking that the Bodhisattva would not care - probably~

After that, under Xia Zhiming's somewhat helpless gaze, Xiao Qing happily played with the jewels for a long time, and finally put them back into the cabinet on the dressing table reluctantly.

All I can say is that no matter how old they are or how high their cultivation level is, girls always like shiny things, and this applies everywhere.

Naturally, the little girl did not chase away the white snake that was offered with many treasures. That night, she hugged the white snake and fell asleep with great satisfaction.

……

Thousands of miles away, under the same moonlight, at the foot of the city wall of Gis, a monk in patchwork robes slowly opened his eyes, then looked up at the bright moon in the sky - this was Monk Jin Guang.

After a long silence, Jin Guang lowered his head, picked up the wooden stick at hand, and picked up the broken bowl in front of him, then walked firmly towards the village outside the city.

At this moment, under the moonlight in the middle of the night, an equally firm pair of footsteps appeared behind Jin Guang.

The monk turned his head and saw a young man in gorgeous clothes and pig-skin boots, striding forward under the moonlight with an arrogant look on his face!

The monk and the god looked at each other, but said nothing. They just walked away from the prosperous city behind them with the same determination.

The difference is——

One left the world.

One walked back to the human world.

--------------

A month later, the city of Giz was besieged by rebels. The defenders fought for several months but were defeated. The new dynasty was established, but due to uneven distribution of fiefs, many generals killed the king again.

The troubled times have arrived, and since then, many demons and ghosts have been causing chaos in the city of Gis, and the people are living in misery.

Fortunately, the living Buddha Jin Guang Dafa Master came into the world to eliminate demons and eradicate all evil.

A few years later, the Living Buddha passed away and his body remained incorrupt. After cremation, a lock-shaped relic was left behind, which shone with a brilliant light that shot up into the sky and was extremely magical.

The people were grateful for his kindness and pooled their wealth to build a golden pagoda to enshrine the Buddha's treasures, and also built a temple, naming it Jinguang Temple.

……

Chapter 47 The Second King

The next day, during morning class.

Xia Zhiming, as usual, lay on the table, reading the scriptures with Qingxin intermittently. However, unlike usual, there was one thing - the hearts of people in the hall were in turmoil!

Xia Zhiming noticed that none of his senior brothers even cared about him coming with Qingxin today. They just glanced at him from time to time, which made him a little confused.

until--

After the morning service, Patriarch Bodhi left through the side door with Qingyun. In the main hall, Xia Zhiming was saying goodbye to Qingxin to go to the back mountain to chop firewood.

As a result, before he could open his mouth, he found that his senior brothers surrounded him with eager faces, holding various items in their hands.

"Brothers..." Xia Zhiming tried to speak, but found that the brothers had already placed the items in their hands on the table one by one, and rushed to say:

"Zhiming, Wukong left in a hurry yesterday. Please pass this pot of wine on to him."

"Zhiming, this is a magic weapon for repelling insects that I made myself. There are many mosquitoes in the mountains. Please help Wukong carry this."

"Zhiming, this gourd contains a detoxifying elixir. I think the monkey should be able to use it."

"This is a magical stove for heating. It will definitely come in handy in the bitter cold of winter in the mountains."

"Little Snake, I don't have anything to bring. You should go earlier. I'll do today's work for you!"

"Brother, great righteousness!!!"

……

The brothers were all enthusiastic and expectant. Seeing their expressions, Xia Zhiming did not refuse and accepted the task of bringing gifts. When the brothers saw that he agreed, they nodded happily, bowed and left one by one with a smile.

Soon, Qing Xin and Xia Zhiming were the only ones left in the hall, along with a table full of bottles, jars, and bags.

The man and the snake looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh at the same time. Fortunately, Xia Zhiming's mental method has been perfected and he can replace reality with dreams, otherwise he would be really at a loss in this situation.

However, having gone through this, Xia Zhiming naturally wasn't going to continue to postpone it - it was time to go find the monkey to play with.

Thinking of this, Xia Zhiming climbed up Qingxin's wrist and onto her shoulder, then said with a smile:

"Qingxin, are you going to your room or mine?"

"mine!"

"why?"

"I won't meet anyone when I wake up in the morning..."

"That's up to you."

The man and the snake agreed on a destination, and then Qingxin used a magic spell to pick up the items on the table one by one and returned to Qingxin's room in the backyard.

However, it was still early, so the man and the snake chatted for a while, and only after noon did they close their eyes and meditate, and then fell into dreamland again...

——————Dream——————

Above the sky, a man and a snake quietly rode a cloud towards the east, with a large number of miscellaneous objects floating around them.

After all, they were specifically looking for monkeys, so Xia Zhiming naturally wouldn't do anything rash this time. He lay peacefully on Qingxin's shoulder and looked down at the scenery.

However, Qingxin's cultivation level is still at the entry level. Even if he has learned to fly in the clouds, his speed will not be much faster.

At least, compared to Sun Wukong who flew all the way from Sanxing Cave to Huaguo Mountain in less than an hour, the man and the snake were much slower.

There was nothing much to say along the way. When it was almost sunset, the man and the snake looked ahead and saw a high mountain. It was really a beautiful mountain. Its mountain -

The vast ocean is filled with surging silver tides, and the majestic Yaohai is rolling with snowy waves.
