Chapter 12: Tang Sanzang: Go up with Maitreya Buddha together

Genres:Martial Arts and Xianxia Last update:25/03/24 17:40:46
    Even though Jiang Liu had long known that Tang San's style was very fierce in handling things, it was terrifying that he could be called to eat female demons at any time.

    This female fairy looks half human and half demon, more often resembling a human being.

    Eating her would be no different from eating humans.

    However, it didn't take long for Jiang Liu to discover something more important.

    He felt as if he couldn't come down from the heavens!

    [Jiang Liu]: "Eh... why hasn't this wind brought me down? I just looked down and I seem to see Golden Temple."

    [Jiang Liu]: "The raging wind that has lifted me up doesn't seem to have any intention of letting me down!"

    [Great Sage Sun Wukong]: "Old Monkey doesn't know where you live. Just recite a wind-control incantation and throw you a red envelope with it. With my abilities, if I fly for another half incense stick, you'll come down."

    Ah? Half... half a stick of incense?!

    Jiang Liu was dumbfounded.

    It took only a cup of tea to fly from Langjian Cave to Jinguang Temple?

    Wouldn't flying to a place even further if I flew for another half incense stick?

    Jiang Liu has never walked so far since he was a child, even up to twelve years old.

    So...

    Jiang Liu could only watch as Jinguang Temple gradually disappeared from his sight, until it was out of his view.

    Next, he was carried by the fierce wind and flew over a high mountain, three large rivers, five villages, a county town...

    Finally.

    The wind that had lifted him up weakened, and in half a stick of time, Jiang Liu's body landed lightly on the ground.

    The solid feeling of his feet touching the ground was quite comforting, but it also made Jiang Liu feel tears welling up in his eyes.

    Where is this?!

    He looked around blankly and found himself in a mountainous wilderness, far away from any village or town. It was even more desolate than the mountains behind Jinguang Temple and unsettling than the demon-infested Langjian Cave.

    At least the demons could talk, but this place didn't even have anyone to speak to; all there was was the sound of insects and the sound of your own heartbeat.

    To leave a twelve-year-old boy who just turned twelve here...

    Jiang Liu was truly sweating profusely.

    "Eh..."

    Suddenly, a soft cry of pain and confusion echoed from one side.

    Jiang Liu immediately looked at the female demon beside him.

    The wounds on the female demon had inexplicably stopped bleeding.

    She seemed to be showing signs of waking up.

    The female demon struggled to open her eyes, her vision still blurry. With the moonlight as a guide, she could just barely make out the figure of Jiang Liu in front of her. She tried to feel for her weapon but felt utterly drained and weak, even struggling to move a single finger.

    As her vision gradually cleared, she was shocked to discover that what stood before her was not a wolf spirit but a human!

    A tender and fresh human!

    "You... are..." The female demon looked bewildered, her eyes filled with confusion.

    Aren't there only monsters in Langjian Cave?

    How can there be a big, living human being?

    Jiang Liu also realized that he was no longer a snake spirit, so the female demon would not recognize herself when she woke up.

    Seeing that the female demon could communicate, he explained, "I saw you were severely injured and being chased by the wolf king. I must have been a pitiful person. While leaving Langjian Cave, I also took you along."

    Jiang Liu mentally added, "Shouldn't I call you 'poor spirit'? Humans don't have big tails."

    "..."

    The female demon also realized that she had been saved by Jiang Liu.

    Within a radius of a hundred feet, there was no detectable demon aura other than her own, so this place could not be Langjian Cave.

    She finally moved, supporting her delicate body against a tree and weakly thanking him, "Your saving my life is something I will never forget, Mr. Hu. When I recover, I will definitely repay your kindness."

    Hu Yuyu? Is that the name of the female demon?

    Jiang Liu asked curiously, "How did you end up being captured by the wolf king and brought up the mountain?"

    When she heard the term "wolf king," Hu Yuyu gritted her teeth, "I was hunting a chicken spirit in the mountains. I wanted to kill it and cook some chicken soup for my injured sister to nourish her body. However, I stumbled upon that shameless wolf king named Luo Wujian. After seeing me, he couldn't walk anymore and asked me to enter into a marriage with him."

    Jiang Liu looked at Hu Yuyu more closely.

    Jiang Liu carefully looked at Hu Yuyu and found her to be very beautiful and alluring. She had one of the most beautiful faces he had ever seen, even with bloodstains all over her, they could not conceal her beauty.

    As for...

    So... Was the wolf king attracted to Hu Yuyu because of her beautiful face, or was it after seeing her true form that he fell in love with her?

    However, Jiang Liu's rationality told him that it would be best not to ask such a question.

    Hu Yuyu continued, "I certainly didn't want to. As a fox spirit, our ancestors have passed down a warning - even if we fox spirits want to seek a husband, we must seek a scholarly gentleman as our husband."

    "I naturally refused him, but the wolf spirit Luo Wujian was relentless. He even found the cave where I lived. My mother tried to drive him away, but he got angry and insulted and injured my mother, forcibly taking me away."

    It seems that the demonic beings are not wrong. She was indeed forced up the mountain.

    As Jiang Liu had guessed...

    The wolf king, Luo Wujian, was playing the trick of abducting a civilian woman.

    Indeed, not a good demon!

    Hu Yuyu was still speaking: "I found an opportunity in Langjian Cave and killed several demons. I wanted to escape from Langjian Cave. On my way, I encountered a green snake spirit, wanting to ask him how to get out of the demon nest. However, his incredible strength, with just one blow of his staff, knocked me unconscious."

    Jiang Liu felt a bit embarrassed.

    Jiang Liu knew that the green snake spirit that Hu Yuyu mentioned was himself, but he felt that Hu Yuyu's fainting was purely due to her severe injury, and had nothing to do with his own blow.

    He was being wrongly accused!

    Hu Yuyu was puzzled: "After that... when I woke up, I found myself here and was saved by the gentleman."

    She didn't know how a young man saved herself.

    After all, Langjian Cave is a well-known demon nest within a hundred-mile radius!

    The demon wolf, "Luo Wujian," is a spirit with three hundred years of cultivation!

    How did the gentleman manage to save herself from Luo Wujian's watchful eyes?

    Hu Yuyu kept thinking and suddenly felt her mind foggy.

    She muttered, "This is not good," and fainted again in exhaustion.

    Jiang Liu hurried to help, but then thought of Master Fayang's words, "Men and women should not touch each other indecently." So he hesitated, and in this delay, Hu Yuyu head-butted a rock and made a loud moan before unconsciousness.

    "This is saving a person... Even though she is not a human, she is still a living being. As all living beings are equal in life, saving demons is also saving people! So even if there is physical contact, the Buddha will forgive me!"

    Jiang Liu finally managed to convince himself.

    Jiang Liu felt that it would be irresponsible to leave the severely injured Hu Yuyu alone here.

    What if she's eaten by wild beasts?

    [Jiang Liu]: "Senior, the female spirit I saved is indeed a fox spirit. She just claimed her name is 'Hu Yuyu' and was captured by a demon wolf with three hundred years of cultivation..."

    Jiang Liu first summarized the situation of Hu Yuyu in the group.

    [Jiang Liu]: "Now, she has fainted again. What can we do to make her better?"

    [Jiang Liu]: "I thought you had already eaten her."

    [Huang Mei, the old ancestor]: "Haha! You have broken so many vows today. Why not take advantage of the fact that she is still unconscious and break the vow against immoral desires as well!"

    [Muscle Tang Sanzang]: "You can give her a bit of the refining power of Buddhist cruelty on water lilies, and she will recover gradually."

    It seems that Master Tang Sanzang is not a stone hearted person.

    Elder Huang Mei still continued to suggest that he should break his vows.

    [Jiang Liu]: "How can we transfer the refining power?"

    [Muscle Tang Sanzang]: "You have seen that garbage scripture that Huang Mei and others released, right? That book actually has a method to transfer qi, which should be the only redeeming feature of that useless martial art."

    Hiss!

    It seems that Tang Sanzang Senior knows everything.

    [Jiang Liu]: "All right, senior!"

    [Huang Mei, the old ancestor]: "Jin Chanzi! I demand a duel with you!"

    Huang Mei was filled with anger and could not bear this Jin Chanzi any longer.

    [Muscle Tang Sanzang]: "You? Bring Maitreya Buddha and fight together, I may be able to look at you properly."

    [Huang Mei, the old ancestor]: "(\_\_\_\_)"
