The twenty-fifth chapter, Bajie shows his power, the first merit on the Western Paradise Road. The Great Sage Equal to Heaven was blinded by his carelessness.
The monkey straightened his back, tied up a tiger skirt, and went to the door without mentioning it. They only said that Zhu Tian leisurely found a cave in the wind, put his luggage away, and drove the White Dragon Horse to graze. Seeing that there was no one around, he took out a bear paw from his Qiankun Bag and a gourd of immortal wine.
Zhu Tian leaned against his luggage and sighed in comfort. It must be said that this period of time was really tough. Not only did he have to travel every day, but he also had to carry a burden. The most uncomfortable thing was that he could only be a vegetarian! Tang Sanzang's eyes were vicious. He had almost been discovered several times when he was stealing food. Fortunately, he had always looked silly. As long as he cried out a few more times and swore to deny it, Tang Sanzang would generally believe him.
Such an opportunity was so rare! If she didn't eat a few more mouthfuls, wouldn't she be letting down her stomach? Thinking of this, Zhu Tian took a big bite of his bear paw.
Not long after, the huge bear paw was eaten clean, and the gourd of immortal wine had long been finished. Zhu Tian licked his lips, feeling a little unsatisfied. However, according to the plot of the original novel, the tiger spirit should be here soon. This was his first achievement on the Western Paradise Road, so he could not be careless.
It was about time. Zhu Tian staggered to his feet, wiped his hands on his monk robes, and kicked away the bones on the ground. Only then did he drag the rake and find a hidden place to lay in ambush.
A moment later, he saw the tiger demon running over. And who else could it be but the monkey, who was waving the Jingu Staff and shouting and chasing after them?
Zhu Tian was secretly delighted. When the tiger spirit got close, he suddenly jumped out and struck the tiger spirit's head with his rake!
With a puchi sound, nine holes appeared on the demon's head! Then, nine pillars of blood flew into the sky, and red and white splattered all over the ground.
This was because this demon had once used the Golden Cicada to escape. Zhu Tian was afraid that he would have other tricks up his sleeve, so he stepped on it and swung two more forks. Only when he saw that the demon was dead did he stop.
Monkey was overjoyed when he saw this. This demon was very cunning! His feet were nimble. If it wasn't for his brother catching him, he might have escaped again!”
Zhu Tian rubbed the back of his head and said with a silly smile,"If it wasn't for big brother's tight pursuit, that fellow wouldn't have been able to guard against me, how could I have succeeded so easily? Brother is still the best!"
Monkey laughed loudly and said,"Brother, don't be too modest!" After all, you killed this monster, so this credit should still be yours!”
"Don't be in a hurry to talk about merit! Brother, is Master in that cave?”Zhu Tian smiled as he suddenly remembered something.
Monkey stopped laughing and said hatefully,""That's right! This tiger spirit captured his master to eat with him! Brother, you wait here for a while. I'll drag this tiger spirit away and then go fight! If that old monster still runs here, this brother will give him another strike!”
Zhu Tian knew that Monkey's eyes would definitely be damaged by the Yellow Wind King's wind. If it was according to the original plan, he would not have been able to remind him. However…this monkey was pretty good to him. Other than being mischievous and fond of teasing him, it really did have the aura of an older brother. How could she bear to see him suffer?
Thinking of this, Zhu Tian could not help but remind him,""Brother, you have to be careful this time! That old monster was known as the Yellow Wind King, so he definitely had some tricks up his sleeve! Originally, her brother's methods were heaven-defying, and he had a body of steel and iron. No matter how fierce the wind was, it would not be able to do anything to her brother! However, his brother's eyes were not protected. As long as he was careful not to be blinded by the wind, he would be able to subdue the demon and save his master!”
"Brother, don't worry!" The monkey laughed proudly. This Old Sun's pair of Fiery Golden Eyes was refined in Old Lord's furnace! Was the wind in the Eight Trigrams Furnace strong? Was it evil? You still can't do anything to me? Brother, don't worry!"
Zhu Tian sighed sadly and said no more.
Zhu Tian remembered that the wind was described as extremely powerful in the original novel, and he was afraid that he would be affected by it later. He found a cave and placed the luggage and white horse at the innermost part of the cave. Then, he moved a large stone to block the entrance of the cave. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief. He took out a large piece of dragon liver and chewed on it while waiting for the wind.
Not long after, the wind came.
With a loud explosion, the sky suddenly changed color. The sun and stars disappeared, and everything was filled with a dark, fog-like yellow mist. Immediately after, countless towering trees were uprooted out of thin air, and broken branches and leaves danced in the air. Countless birds and beasts flew around, howling and wailing. However, he still couldn't escape the fate of being swept up by the wind and squeezed into a ball of flesh and blood. The streams in the mountains were also blown up by the yellow wind, turning into water droplets that scattered all over the sky. The stone edges and cliffs on the mountain were also flattened, smoother than Lu Ban's. The slope at the foot of the mountain was even shorter, and a layer had been cut off by the wind.
Zhu Tian hurriedly retreated into the depths of the cave and hid behind the luggage. He was secretly shocked. No wonder even a powerful figure like Sun Wukong couldn't withstand it. This wind was indeed vicious! It was probably not much worse than Princess Iron Fan's banana fan. If he did not have the Air-frozen Bead, it would be useless even if he went up. This time, that monkey was in trouble!
Although the monkey had amazing martial strength, he didn't have any great magic treasure to protect himself other than the Jingu Staff. When they encountered those powerful demons, their hands and feet were tied and they could only escape. It was really frustrating. It seemed that he should also pay more attention to these kinds of magic treasures, lest he suffer losses in the future…
After a long time, the wind calmed down and the sky cleared. Only then did Zhu Tian push away the huge rock and drive the white horse. Carrying his luggage, he sighed and left the cave.
Suddenly, he saw the monkey covering its eyes and stumbling in his direction. Zhu Tian hurriedly rushed over to support Monkey and shouted with a face full of regret,"Brother, what's wrong with you?”
The monkey looked ashamed and said,"Don't mention it!" Don't mention it! He regretted not listening to his brother, and his eyes were hurt by the old demon's wind. This wind is very fierce. Now my eyes are sore and I can't see anything. Tears flow down my face. I'll find an eye doctor to treat my eyes. When my injuries are better, I'll go and save my master!”
Zhu Tian knew that Guardian Qielan would come to treat his eyes in a while, so he didn't have to worry. "That's the only way!" he said. But brother, we're in the mountains. We don't even have a place to stay, let alone an oculist! It was better to leave the mountain first, find a family to stay for a night, and then find out if there was a teacher to treat his eyes!”
The monkey had long run out of ideas. When he heard Zhu Tian's logical explanation, he nodded repeatedly and said,"That's right! That's right! I'll listen to you, brother!"
Zhu Tian placed the burden on the horse. He supported Monkey with one hand and led the horse with the other as they slowly walked out.
When he walked out of the intersection, he suddenly saw the lights on the southern slope in the distance. There was also the sound of dogs barking. It must be someone else's house.
Zhu Tian supported Monkey and came closer to take a look. It was indeed the Huzhuang Courtyard. He couldn't help but laugh in his heart. This Guardian Qielan had some tricks up his sleeves. It was fine if he had a lamp and a fire, but he even made a dog bark. Was he afraid that they wouldn't believe him? But why did he leave an invitation in the end? How hypocritical!
"Open the door!" Zhu Tian shouted. Open the door! Is there anyone inside?"
As soon as Zhu Tian finished speaking, an old man with a few farmers rushed out with forks and brooms in their hands. He shouted,"Who is harassing us here?"
The monkey bowed and said,"We are the disciples of the Saint Monk of the Tang of the East." I was on my way to the Western Heaven to pray to Buddha and ask for scriptures. When I passed by this mountain, my master was taken away by the Yellow Wind King. We haven't been able to save him. Seeing that the sky was already dark, I specially came to your residence to borrow it for the night. I hope it's convenient.”
The old man hurriedly returned the greeting and said pretentiously,"Sorry for not welcoming you. Because this was a place with many clouds and few people, there were many demons and bandits. Thus, when he saw someone knocking on the door, he was a little reckless. I hope the two elders won't blame me for my rudeness! Please come in."
The two brothers led the horse and carried the load into the house. After tying the horse to rest, he then sat down with Old Man Zhuang.
