"Master, disciple flew around but didn't even spot a rabbit. Where are there so many demons? Master, just eat with confidence. With disciple here, how dare they make any trouble." Sun Wukong held a peach and ate, thinking that it was just fine that there were no demons. He could just take a break.
"I have a sense of unease in my heart. According to the norm, a large and desolate mountain like this is a good hiding place for demons."
"Wukong, it's better for you to go and take a look, so as not to be caught off guard by them." Tang Seng stared at Sun Wukong with a worried look on his face.
Sun Wukong thought to himself, was his master so used to being harassed by demons that he felt unaccustomed when there were none?
The minds of mortals were really beyond comprehension!
He hoisted his golden cudgel and got up. Who let the other be his master?
What else could he do? Just spoil him!
"Master, disciple will be back soon." Saying so, Sun Wukong somersaulted onto the somersault cloud and appeared above the White Tiger Ridge.
"There's clearly an evil aura on this mountain, but I haven't even encountered a small mountain spirit." Sun Wukong shaded his eyes with his hand and looked down. He couldn't help but find it a bit strange.
After circling in the air for another round, Sun Wukong activated his Fiery Golden Eyes and finally discovered a cave in a hidden corner.
He jumped off the cloud and came to the front of the cave. The closed stone door looked somewhat abnormal.
"There really is a cave. When something is out of the ordinary, there must be a demon. So many people are coveting Master's flesh. Do the demons on this mountain think his flesh is not delicious? Which demon doesn't want to live forever?" Sun Wukong rolled his eyes and stepped forward to knock on the door!
The Buddha was really something. Why did he have to let everyone know that Master's flesh could make people live forever!
"Demons inside, come out. This great sage is here. Why don't you come out and pay your respects!" Sun Wukong knocked on the cave door and carefully observed the movement inside.
...
Inside the cave, in the boudoir of the White Bone Demon Lady.
Yang Xue, who was dozing off, only heard a "thud".
She looked up and saw the cat demon kneeling below. "Reporting to the lady, there's a person outside carrying a three - colored long stick. He claims to be our 'Grandpa Sun' and asks us to go out and pay our respects."
This image seemed so familiar.
As if struck by a thunderbolt, Yang Xue immediately bounced up from her seat. "Sun Wukong is outside the cave?"
She was both excited and scared!
She was excited because she could finally see the renowned Sun Wukong with her own eyes. It was an honor for her!
She was scared because this big shot was destined to be an enemy of the White Bone Demon.
"It's too much. Why don't you go out and teach him a lesson!" A little demon who served her on weekdays said indignantly.
Yang Xue turned around. It was a rabbit demon.
"What do you know? Do you want to be roasted and eaten?" Yang Xue paced back and forth on the ground. "That's Sun Wukong who made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace and didn't even give the Heavenly Court any face!"
"Is he that powerful?" The little white rabbit muttered in her heart. Why did their lady suddenly become so timid? And she even changed into the clothes of a good - natured woman. It was so unusual.
"Then let me tell you about how powerful Sun Wukong is. Let's start from when he went to learn skills from his master..."
She briefly picked out a few well - known and remarkable deeds of his, which left the little demons below gaping.
Although they were curious because the lady was extremely excited yesterday, saying that she would soon be able to eat Tang Seng's flesh.
In the past few days, she had also ordered them to patrol the eastern mountain to make sure not to miss the Tang Seng and his disciples.
But the lady always changed her mind quickly, and they didn't dare to question the lady's orders.
"Is there any other way out besides the cave door? I want to go out and avoid the limelight." Yang Xue pretended to be calm, but in fact, she was scared to death. After all, the cave door couldn't withstand one strike from Sun Wukong's cudgel.
The cat demon was infected by the lady's nervous look and nodded repeatedly. "Yes, I'll take the lady there right away."
"Lead the way in front." Yang Xue couldn't help but reach out and touch the cat demon's head. "The feel is just right."
The cat demon shrank his neck, shivered, and cried loudly. "I hope the lady will be merciful and not skin me."
Yang Xue felt helpless. Recalling the previous style of the White Bone Demon, she understood why the cat was so scared.
She smiled slightly and reached out to touch his head again. "Don't worry, I'm not that cruel."
The cat demon glanced at the animal furs all over the room and buried his head even lower. He walked ahead attentively to lead the way.
A moment later, the White Bone Demon followed the cat demon out of the side cave. Just as she was about to stretch and look at the scenery on the opposite mountain, she caught sight of a tall and handsome figure not far away.
She thought to herself, where did this dashing man come from on this mountain? He looked quite handsome from the side.
The next moment, she suddenly stiffened. That person lightly tapped his toes and flew in front of them.
"Who are you, demon? Why did you come out to greet me so late?" Sun Wukong put his hands on his hips, and as soon as he opened his mouth, it was just like that.
"Sun... Sun Wukong!" The little cat demon trembled and hid behind the White Bone Demon. His calves were shaking.
Wasn't it said that he had a hairy face and a thunder - god - like mouth?
However, even his handsome appearance couldn't hide the killing aura around him.
This? This man with such well - defined features and tall and handsome appearance was actually Sun Wukong?
Yang Xue stared at the golden cudgel in his hand with wide eyes and couldn't help but lean back. But she was held by the cat demon behind her!
"Great... great sage, you've come to our humble abode. We're sorry we didn't greet you properly." Her tongue got tied. Seeing the golden cudgel in his hand, she blurted out such a sentence without thinking.
Also, was this the side door?
Was this little demon stupid? Did she come out of the side door for fun? She was trying to avoid Sun Wukong!
"Hmm?" Sun Wukong was very surprised.
Since she couldn't hide from his Fiery Golden Eyes, she stopped pretending to be a good person. Sun Wukong was not that easy to deceive. To save her life, she had to strike unexpectedly.
"Is the great sage out begging for alms?" Yang Xue greeted him with a smiling face. "It's already late in the morning. I'm sure the great sage is tired and thirsty. Does the great sage need this little woman to provide some food?"
"Oh?" Sun Wukong stroked his chin. This little demon in front of him was quite sensible. "Exactly. Do you have vegetarian food here?"
"Yes, yes, yes. If you like, I can cook for you myself. The great sage's visit has added luster to our humble abode." She didn't dare to mention Tang Seng or the pilgrimage, otherwise this monkey would definitely think she was full of tricks and coveting Tang Seng's flesh.
Sun Wukong took a step back and carefully sized up the demon in front of him with a blooming smile. Many questions came to his mind.
Didn't she want to eat Tang Seng's flesh? Didn't she know that he was on the way to send Tang Seng to the Western Heaven to obtain the scriptures?
"Since you know I'm Sun Wukong, you should know that my master Tang Seng is at the foot of the mountain. Are you trying to coax us in and then eat Tang Seng's flesh?" Saying so, Sun Wukong stepped forward, pointed the golden cudgel at Yang Xue's head, and his eyes showed a fierce light.
"No, no, no. I wouldn't dare. Great sage, you've misunderstood. This little woman didn't dare to mention your master just because she was afraid you would misunderstand. Since we've come to this point, I would never dare to eat your master even if I were beaten to death. Even if I really wanted to eat, my cultivation level is not even worthy of showing off in front of the great sage."
"That's true." It was the first time he had met such a talkative female demon. It sounded quite pleasant to his ears.
Sun Wukong put away his golden cudgel and pointed to the foot of the mountain. "Send the vegetarian food you mentioned to the foot of the mountain. We don't eat meat or drink alcohol. Master will blame us."
He wouldn't be easily deceived. Once they entered the cave, there was no guarantee that there wouldn't be any traps or magic tools.
"Sure, sure. So what you mean is that I should cook the food and send it over?" Yang Xue felt that her face was about to freeze from smiling.
"That's right, but I'll keep an eye on you to make sure you don't poison my master." Sun Wukong was not that easy to deceive. His master was just a mortal and couldn't stand any harm.
