In the Valley of Happiness, butterflies and bees were flying, and a breeze was blowing.
Zhang Huan and the scorpion demon sat in the courtyard and stared at each other. Guanyin used her gaze as a sharp sword and stabbed him hard.
The scorpion spirit said," Go. You're the one who came up with the idea. You can go to the Zimu River to get water."”
Zhang Huan shook his head." No, what if I leave Sun Wukong and bring people to rescue me? You can't stop them."”
"It's just a wild monkey, why would I be afraid of him?”
She was full of disdain for Sun Wukong's scorpion spirit. Otherwise, she would not have dared to have any ideas about Tang Sanzang.
" If it's just the three disciples of Tang Sanzang, I believe you can indeed stop them," Zhang Huan said." But we have two Bodhisattvas in our hands now. Do you know what kind of reinforcements that Sun Wukong will bring?"”
Scorpion was at a loss for words, so Zhang Huan continued,"So it's safer for me to stay behind and you go get water.”
"If I were to leave, would I still need the water of Zimu River to make Bodhisattva pregnant?”
The scorpion spirit rolled its eyes at Zhang Huan, as if it had seen through him.
"That's why I said that this was completely unnecessary. It was completely unnecessary." Zhang Huan muttered.”
"What did you say?" The scorpion spirit raised its eyebrows and clenched its fists.
Zhang Huan quickly waved his hand." Nothing, nothing. I'm just thinking about what to do."”
Just as the two of them were about to stare at each other again, the figure of the wooden fork appeared in the sky.
After spending a day and a night, he finally fished out the goldfish from the lotus pond in the Purple Bamboo Forest according to Zhang Huan's request.
"The goldfish you wanted is right here. You didn't hurt Bodhisattva, did you?”
Mucha looked at Guanyin as he spoke. Other than being tied up, everything seemed fine. He couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.
Zhang Huan took the basket and was stunned for a moment."Why are there five?"
Wood Fork was also stunned when he heard that. He said weakly,"These are all the goldfish in the lotus pond. Bodhisattva raised them personally. What's the problem?”
He had brought a total of five goldfish, two big and three small. They looked like a male and a female, and three cubs.
The Heavenspan River in front of Jindou Mountain was caused by a goldfish, which was exactly what Zhang Huan wanted.
Therefore, when he saw that there were actually five fish, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he realized that no one would only raise one fish. There was nothing wrong with having five.
From the looks of it, the one causing trouble in the Heavenspan River should be this male fish, and the others should be his wife and children.
"No problem, it's better this way."”
What was better? Guanyin couldn't help but ask," Little thief, you have fish in your own lake. Why do you want the goldfish in my lotus pond?"”
The scorpion spirit was also quite curious about this and asked,"That's right. Why do you want goldfish?”
"Of course I'm eating. What else can I do?”
" Although I heard that goldfish aren't suitable for eating," Zhang Huan said matter-of-factly," I'm not a picky eater. Don't tell me you don't eat goldfish?"”
The scorpion spirit shrugged." I don't care.”
"That's good," Zhang Huan said."Today, I'll make you a brand new delicacy called sashimi." No, it was a delicacy from the Tang of the East called fish slices.”
That's right, sashimi was already a delicacy in the Tang Empire.
As he spoke, he took out his sword and slashed it down. He directly slaughtered the three small goldfish in the bamboo basket and cut open their stomachs.
Before the others could react, he had already begun his performance.
He took a plate from the kitchen and washed the fish in the lake. Then, he used his sword qi to slice them into thin slices.
After cutting them, they were placed neatly on a plate. They even got a few flowers as decorations.
"Success."
Zhang Huan placed the plate on the stone table and said,""Grind some mustard into powder, then pour soy sauce into it as a seasoning. You'll definitely like this dish.”
He wasn't sure if the scorpion spirit would like it, but Guan Yin definitely wouldn't. Her face turned green.
"Little thief, you are so cruel. There are so many fish in the lake, but you insist on eating my goldfish.”
Guanyin's heart ached. Looking at the goldfish on the plate in front of her, she couldn't help but cry.
Zhang Huan had no reaction to this. He didn't have any compassion at all.
He picked up the two big goldfish in the basket and said,"I might want to eat this fish anytime in the future. You'd better work hard to reproduce more, or I'll have to eat you directly.”
After saying that, he threw the two goldfish into the lake. He was preparing to raise them in captivity.
Then, he turned to Guanyin and said,""Merciful Bodhisattva, now do you know why I went through so much trouble to get your goldfish to eat?”
At this moment, Guan Yin's expression froze.
In the Tongtian River, this goldfish of hers had transformed into the King of Inspiration, and every year, she had to make the Tan Family pay tribute to the boys and girls for him to eat.
As long as the Tan family dared not to pay tribute, then disaster would descend upon them and the people of the Tan family would be in dire straits.
Just like hanging Manjushri in a lake, Zhang Huan was only returning the favor.
He stood in front of Guanyin, leaning over the stone table with both hands and looking at Guanyin. He said coldly and stiffly,"Guan Yin Bodhisattva, can we continue what we did yesterday and talk about how you are merciful and how you save people in distress?”
At this moment, let alone Guan Yin, even the scorpion spirit's expression turned solemn.
Although Zhang Huan was usually not serious and laughed, one could actually feel that his heart was filled with resentment.
The scorpion spirit didn't know what had happened in the Heavenspan River, but she could tell that Zhang Huan was really very dissatisfied with Guan Yin.

Something happened and I stayed up all night last night. Then, I couldn't take it anymore and had an early breakfast. I slept until now, so the update was delayed. Forgive me.
