I'm a Demon King in Journey to the West

"Ah!" Shi Zheng, who came back to his senses, was heartbroken, "There should be a lot of Ganoderma lucidum near this tree, all of which have been burned."

Suddenly someone behind him said: "Young master, do you want the fairy grass Ganoderma lucidum? If you don't dislike it, Xiaoxian's heart is not enough to respect you."

Shi Zheng turned his head and saw a scholar-like man in a straight gown standing not far away, holding a basket, which contained not only Ganoderma lucidum, but also ginseng and various fairy herbs.

The man introduced with a stiff smile: "I am the mountain god of Xichun Mountain. Thank you, Your Majesty, for eradicating the tree demon for all the creatures on the mountain. Countless creatures suffered from the cholera of the tree demon. Thanks to the young master's action to get rid of him today. I see Young Master seems to be picking Ganoderma lucidum, so I offer some kindness, please accept it."

Shi Zheng didn't rush to pick it up, but asked, "Since you are a mountain god, and this tree demon is harming one side, why don't you take action yourself?"

"This... Xiaoxian was just a scholar before he was appointed as a mountain god. His cultivation is shallow, so he can't beat him." Tears of bitterness, he has been bullied by tree demons all these years.

A strong dragon can't beat a local snake, let alone he is not a strong dragon.

Shi Zheng also understood in an instant that low-level personnel such as land and mountain gods and other small officials, despite having a heavenly establishment, did not mix well and were driven by the big monsters in the station at will.

The son of the Bull Demon King, Holy Infant King Honghaier basically uses the land on his territory as a slave.

"You don't have to be too polite, I just did it with a little effort."

Shi Zheng was polite in his mouth, but he was unambiguous in his actions. He walked over and took the basket from the mountain god's hand, and after a quick look, "thank you."

The mountain god intended to curry favor with Shi Zheng. After all, the other party is a powerful monster, and it would be no harm to make friends with him. "Where does the young master live?"

Don't take the mountain god as an improper cadre, he is one of the ruling forces in the heavens, and sometimes he can get some news that the goblins don't know. Besides, Shi Zheng is new here, and he doesn't understand many things and needs to be answered.

"I live in Wangxia Cave on Mount Hengyuan."

It is three hundred miles away from here.The mountain god thought to himself, I heard that there is indeed a monster on Hengyuan Mountain, but I have never seen the real face, so I didn't expect it to have such a great ability.However, once the tree demon dies, other fairies will move in if the forest is not in order, and it will be troublesome again.

Since this monster has its own cave, it probably won't occupy Xichun Mountain, so I have to try my best to win his favor and ask him to be a foreign aid so that I won't be bullied by monsters again.

"I don't know what the son's name is?"

"Don't be fooled, just call me Layman Wangxia." Shi Zheng didn't want to reveal his true origin, the title of Great Sacred Lion and Camel King of Yishan has been sealed in history.

"Then, Layman, it's getting late. If you don't mind, I wonder if you'd like to drink a few cups at Xiaoxian's residence to moisten your throat."

"Well, I happen to be thirsty too." In the final analysis, Shi Zheng is still the food and drink of the Ganshan God's family.

Yuanshen had treated his stomach badly for too long, and his stomach always felt empty.

Shi Zheng followed the mountain god to his residence, the dead leaves on the ground gave way automatically, and the branches moved away consciously, opening up a flat road for the two to walk.

Although the mountain god also lives in a cave, the furnishings are much better than those in Wangxia Cave.

There are wisterias at the door, wild roses in the cave, and a short layer of fluffy grass growing on the ground as a carpet.

There are a dozen or so servants in the cave who are on errands. They have handsome faces. They are probably either flower demons or grass spirits.

When Shi Zheng and the others entered the cave and arrived at the living room, the table was already prepared with food and wine.

"The reception is not good, but I still hope Haihan."

"You're too polite." Shi Zheng smelled the aroma coming from the jug on the table, and couldn't help but said, "It smells so good."

It's better than the one from the Dragon King's house... Wait a minute, it seems like I was interrupted by the Nine-Headed Insect before I had a drink in Bibotan, damn it.

So this meal, he must catch up.

Shi Zheng sat down, toasted a cup with the mountain god, and began to eat and drink with his chopsticks.

During the banquet, there was not only the accompaniment of drums and sheng, but also beautiful singers accompanied by dancers, which shows that the mountain gods' small days are not bad.

After drinking for three rounds, the mountain god tentatively asked: "I don't know what the trick to get rid of demons just now is called? It's really wonderful."

To be honest, Shi Zheng only felt his nose itchy and sneezed, and then the dryad was sprayed to death.

"Hahaha, there is no trick, just sneezed casually."

The mountain god heard this, broke into a cold sweat, and toasted Shi Zheng again, "Please use it. I wonder how many followers the layman has?"

Shi Zheng said truthfully, "Four."

"The layman likes to joke, so he dropped the word 'hundred'." How could a big monster of this level have only four little monsters under him.

He is a small mountain god, and he has more than a dozen servants under him.

"That's four." Shi Zheng said, "To tell you the truth, I don't eat people and don't rob houses. Maybe the little monsters think that there is no future for me. But four little monsters are enough. You can raise fish. Planting fields, and harvesting food and fish in autumn is also very good. Oh, by the way, I came to pick Ganoderma lucidum because the young ones can’t keep up with their food recently, and they are very thin, so they are nourishing and nourishing.”

So many, so... so different monsters.

The mountain god was amazed, "You farm and raise fish yourself?" Such a hardworking person is a law-abiding citizen among human beings, let alone monsters.

"I don't like to fight and kill. If the tree demon didn't want to kill me first today, I wouldn't do anything to it." In short, he is a good "docile" and law-abiding monster.

The mountain god couldn't help admiring him a little, but at the same time he was relieved that he had to be a monster so that he wouldn't persecute him in the future.

"By the way, if you are farming, insects in rice seedlings are a problem. I have a bird here that can catch insects."

After all, the mountain god clapped his hands, and a bird stand appeared on the table, on which sat a palm-sized bird with red feathers, except for a black spot on his forehead.

"Even though it's small in size, it's a good catcher of insects. You just need to let it out at night, let it eat insects, and when it's dawn, it will go back to the bird stand to rest."

This is exactly what Shi Zheng needed, and he said happily: "That's really great, I will accept this gift. If there are any other fairies coming to Xichun Mountain to cause trouble in the future, just let me know."

The mountain god was moved and said, "With your words, Xiaoxian's heart will be assured."

"By the way, Your Excellency is sent by the Heavenly Court. You must know the layout of the world very well. I haven't been out of the mainland for a long time. I don't know which direction to go to Xiniu Hezhou?"

"We are in the Aolai country in Dongshengshenzhou in the east. If we want to go to Xiniu Hezhou, we need to go through Nanfangbu Prefecture. In short, we go all the way west."

Shi Zheng has figured out his geographical location. He is now in Aolai Country with Huaguo Mountain Water Curtain Cave, while Datang is in Nanfangbu Prefecture, and the end point of learning Buddhist scriptures is Xiniu Hezhou.

This is very good news. His Wangxia Cave is not on the route to learn Buddhist scriptures. It should have nothing to do with him.

Steady, steady.

At the end of the meal, Shi Zheng packed the ganoderma lucidum and ginseng and other things in a bag, carried the bird stand, bid farewell to the mountain god, and left in the clouds.

He was in a good mood when he went out this trip, and when he reached the entrance of the cave, he said loudly, "Open the door, my lord, I'm back."

"Your Majesty, you are back." It was Tiger Spirit who opened the door. While taking the burden and the bird stand from Shi Zheng's hands, he said angrily and anxiously: "Great King, Ah Hui and the others are back. The fish tank was not sold, and it was almost sold out." I was beaten up." After finishing speaking, he suddenly said: "...But, Your Majesty, you went out for a walk, why does it seem that... your complexion has become better."

Of course it was because his nutrition kept up, Shi Zheng was not in the mood to talk about his appearance changes: "What are you talking about, what happened to the fish tank?"

At this time, both the leopard spirit and the gray wolf spirit ran out, crying and complaining: "My lord, you guys went down the mountain to sell fish tanks in the city, but the shopkeeper insisted that they lost the fish tank." , Said that we are in rags, the fish tank is not ours at first glance, we stole it from their house, and dared to sell it at their house. If we didn’t run fast, they would let the guys in the shop beat us .”

Shi Zheng raised his forehead, he completely understood why Leopard Jing and the others didn't turn around to the other kings.

Such a waste, if he switched to other kings, he might not be able to stay for a day, so he might as well spend his energy with the lion.

Shi Zheng took a deep breath, "You are monsters, monsters! How can you let humans detain your fish tank and almost get beaten up?!"

He has only been a monster for a few days, and he is better than these guys.

Gray Wolf said cautiously: "My lord, didn't you tell us not to argue with humans. Besides, we haven't gone down the mountain for more than ten years, and we feel scared when we see people."

"That's because I thought you were fierce, and I was afraid that you would hurt others. I didn't expect that you...! You!"

Seeing that the king was angry, the two little monsters hugged their heads and crouched tremblingly.

Seeing the two of them like this, Shi Zheng breathed out and calmed down, "It's okay, just bring the fish tank back. Let's eat first, and tomorrow morning, let's go to the city together. I brought back a lot of ganoderma lucidum and ginseng from Xichun Mountain , everyone ate."

In order to make amends, Leopard Spirit immediately said: "There was some venison left yesterday, and it's just right to cook it with Ganoderma lucidum. I'll prepare it now."

The other three demons were all thinking about eating, and they all cheered, "Eat the ganoderma, eat the ganoderma."

For dinner, the four demons sat around a table and ate a pot of delicious venison ganoderma soup.

The Ganoderma lucidum that was stewed was the one that Shi Zheng picked under the tree demon, and it also absorbed a lot of the spirit of the tree demon during the growth process, which was of great benefit to the monster's cultivation.

Ganoderma lucidum is a great tonic for any cultivator, let alone a little demon with no skills, who can eat this Ganoderma lucidum thanks to the reward from the king, otherwise, if it is on its own, it will become a tree demon's meal.

The four little demons devoured their food so much that their dark noses were covered with fine sweat.

Shi Zheng watched from the side, and couldn't help but think of the dog he raised in his previous life. He ate happily, and his nose was so wet.

Just now, most of the anger caused by the fish tank has disappeared. Forget it, in comparison, the shopkeeper of the pawnshop is the one who is so bad.

The four little demons were eating heartily, and when they turned their heads inadvertently, they saw the king looking at them at the door of the kitchen, which frightened them for a moment. One of the spoons fell into the pot, and when they hurried to fish it, they were elbowed by the other. "Hey, it's so dirty, we still have to drink."

"Last night, you dreamed of gnawing on my paws, so you don't think it's dirty."

"Bah bah bah! It's not true."

"Don't talk, the king is watching!"

The little demon looked at Shi Zheng quietly, and saw the king with a "warm" smile, "Is it delicious?"

"good to eat."

"Do you have strength?"

"Yes, yes. It's not bragging. After eating, I really feel that I have inexhaustible strength. There seems to be a wave of energy in the dantian. My cultivation has risen to a higher level. I feel that I am about to transform into a human form." gone."

Indeed, the hair of the four little demons became much brighter, their eyes became brighter, and their sunken cheeks also bulged up.

Shi Zheng walked over and patted their shoulders one by one, "Ganoderma lucidum, we still have a lot, enough for you to eat."

When you grow strong, you can go to work in the field.

"Your Majesty, you are too kind to the little ones, and the little ones swear their allegiance to the King to the death."

"My lord, if you don't eat the Ganoderma lucidum, give it to us, isn't it a loss for you?"

Not long after, the four little demons who were sweating profusely in the field, recalling this moment, couldn't help but feel that they were naive, the king never traded at a loss.

"No loss, no loss, you are healthy, don't mention how happy I am." Shi Zheng kept smiling, "Eat enough, have a good sleep, and let's go down the mountain to buy things together tomorrow morning. Of course, before that, go and ask for the fish tank." return."

"My lord, how can we get the fish tank back?"

Shi Zheng said casually: "The fish tank is ours, just call it by name."

"I thought the king was going to swallow that black shop in one gulp."

Shi Zheng said seriously: "This king doesn't eat people, how many times have I said that?"

Gray Wolf echoed: "Yes, a friend of mine once said that the meat of a good man is sweet, but the meat of a bad man is stinky. The pawn shop owner must be so unpalatable."

Shi Zheng said in a deep voice: "Is that friend you yourself? Didn't you eat people yourself?"

"No, really not." The gray wolf spirit wanted to shake his head away.

"That's good, break up with that friend of yours. Don't make bad friends." Shi Zheng said: "After eating, go to bed early. Tomorrow, let's go shopping down the mountain."

The four little demons cheered, the gray wolf spirit raised its neck excitedly and howled, the other three demons hurriedly buried their heads and drank a few more mouthfuls of soup when they saw this.
