[Journey to the West] Show mercy

? Weasel's words made Qi Chen puzzled.Someone was mentioned in his words, and it seemed that this person gave him the whip, and the goal was to... catch her?But who is going to do this kind of thing?What was the use of catching her?A series of questions gave Qi Chen a headache, as if Tang Seng suddenly appeared beside her again.

So now... what to do?How should she escape?This whip not only has its own consciousness to catch people, but also absorbs her mana when she casts a spell... How can it escape?And she told Ran Yu that she wanted to deal with this monster alone, so he wouldn't have thought that he would be arrested for a while, right?But Ran Yu seems to have said that something happened to her and called him, but can he really hear it...

It shouldn't be a problem to give it a try, his magic power may be very strong.

Thinking of this, Qi Chen whispered: "Ran Yu? Can you hear me?"

No one answered.Qi Chen increased the volume a little more: "Ran Yu? Can you hear me?"

Still no answer.She tried to raise her voice again, but this time Ran Yu didn't hear it, but the weasel heard it: "You little girl, what's your name? I can't tell you have accomplices! If that's the case, come with me. When the time comes, I'll tie the two of you together and see who else you call yourself!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Chen felt himself being lifted up, and then the sunlight suddenly became dazzling.They have already reached the outside of the Water Curtain Cave.The weasel snorted disdainfully: "If anyone is sneaking around on my mountain, you'd better come out!"

"Your mountain? I—" Qi Chen was covered by the silver-white whip before he could yell out the curse words from behind.

The weasel glanced at her and sneered: "I advise you not to do useless work, and watch how your companion was arrested by me!"

This guy is so rampant with a whip?Qi Chen clenched his back molars as he thought about it.She didn't know what strength Ran Yu was, but she doubted whether he could beat this whip.

"I only heard that there is a monkey on this mountain, but I have never heard of any weasels here." A voice suddenly came from a distance.

"Hmph, I've always been the only king here, and I've never heard of any monkeys!" Weasel gritted his teeth, "Don't hide far away if you have the ability!"

A figure appeared in front of the Water Curtain Cave in an instant.Ran Yu was standing less than one meter in front of the weasel: "What about now? Are you satisfied?"

The weasel itself was not very strong, and suddenly he was afraid of being so close, so he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, stepped back, and took one hand, and the whip fell into his hand.He seemed to have forgotten about Qi Chen's existence, he didn't even notice that Qi Chen's hands and feet could move freely, he just took the whip away to defend himself.

Ran Yu couldn't help frowning when he saw the whip.

"Why, are you afraid!" Weasel said with a proud smile, "Even if you are a fairy, you can't beat my whip!"

He raised his hand and the whip came down, Ran Yu's figure flickered, and deep whip marks were left on the place where he stood just now.He took a step back, and his hands formed seals quickly, so fast that it was almost impossible to see his movements.The next moment, the weasel had fallen to the ground, and blood was gurgling from his abdomen.

Qi Chen's eyes were wide open, watching Ran Yu's movements intently.The whip was already in his hand, and it seemed to be trembling slightly.

The battle was over in an instant.

Ran Yu turned her head, and her face softened after seeing Qi Chen. "Are you all right?" He smiled and looked at the whip in his hand again, "Don't worry, this whip can't beat me."

Qi Shen let out an "oh".She didn't know if it was because her magic ability was too weak that she was subdued by the whip, but she couldn't deny Ran Yu's magic power.And... His expression changed so quickly, which made her feel quite scary.

Between him and Monkey King... which one is more powerful?If it was him, then why didn't he come out to stop Monkey King making a big disturbance in the Heavenly Palace at that time, and now he is the one who captures every little weasel?And where did the weasel come from?

So many strange things, she felt her temples twitch.

"Are you uncomfortable?" Ran Yu asked her.

"Maybe it was hit when I was thrown out just now, I was too nervous and didn't feel it just now, but now I feel the pain." Qi Chen lied casually.She didn't feel any pain, but she was terrified. "This whip... whose is it? That weasel said... he caught me, and this whip will belong to him..."

A haze flashed across Ran Yu's face for a moment, but it disappeared in an instant. "This whip is an excellent weapon, and it still has immortal energy on it. It's probably from the heavens."

"Then—why did he get it—"

"At first I was thinking," Ran Yu explained as gently as possible, "whether he stole it from somewhere, but now that you put it this way... I'm afraid someone is behind the scenes and told him to use this whip to kill him." You catch it, and give this treasure to him when it's done."

"Then who wants to do this? I don't have anyone—could it be that I had an enmity with anyone before?" Qi Chen looked at Ran Yu and suddenly remembered what Ling Qing said before, "Does it have anything to do with you?"

"...I don't know." After a long time, Ran Yu replied slowly. "No matter what, you'd better not go back to Heaven. That person's plan failed this time, and I'm afraid he won't do anything for a while. You'd better stay here first, I'll go back and have a look .”

"But--"

"Be careful in everything, even if that person won't know that her plan has failed for a while." Ran Yu emphasized again, "Don't be like last time..." He didn't continue, but Qi Chen knew what he was referring to It's a soul-stirring thing.

"There shouldn't be anything wrong when I go back to Heaven, right?" Qi Chen felt that if he stayed here, he might meet Monkey King someday.Afraid that her reasons were not sufficient, she added: "Actually, you don't have to help me like this...I mean, we've only met a few times, haven't we?"

After she finished speaking, she realized that she had said something stupid, but Ran Yu never mentioned whether they had ever known each other very well.Although Ran Yu said that her personality was very different from before, it didn't mean that he admitted that he had a relationship with her.

"Have we only met a few times?" Ran Yu smiled, "That's fine. But I help you is your own wish, and you don't have to feel like you owe me anything. And I think you can't control it when you cast spells. Well, the strength has not been fully displayed, it must be caused by the incomplete soul. Huaguoshan is full of spiritual energy, you should repair it for a while, at least calm down the unstable soul in the body due to the release of the seal, otherwise it is easy to form a demon."

Qi Chen didn't speak any more, but heard Ran Yu talk about a few things to pay attention to, and told her to pretend to be among the monkeys as much as possible.Qi Shen agreed one by one, and once again doubted whether he and Tang Seng were related by blood.Maybe they used to be brothers, one became immortal and the other became Buddha!

"I see, I will pay more attention." Taking advantage of the gap between Ran Yu's words, Qi Chen said hastily.

Ran Yu sighed again and glanced at the whip in his hand in embarrassment: "If you don't have to take this whip back for investigation, I'll leave it for you to defend yourself." He said as he untied a dagger from his waist: "Although the dagger is not considered a weapon, it is better than nothing. Take it."

Qi Chen took the dagger, weighed it, it was just right, it was light, and it wouldn't be easy to let go because it was too light.At the same time, the blade of this dagger is very sharp, and it is easy to chop even rocks with spells.The scabbard of the dagger has no frills, so it won't be noticeable at all when it is hidden around the waist.And after traveling west with those people for so many years, she probably learned some kung fu in boxing and kicking. Although she is not proficient, she still knows how to use a dagger.

"Thank you." Qi Chen looked at the dagger in his hand and said, "Thank you for being willing to help me...Thank you for giving me this dagger."

"You don't need to thank me." Ran Yu sighed, "This is what I should do. Live happily and don't be so sad like today, okay?"

Qi Chen nodded, watching him walk away.
