[Journey to the West] Edible Guide for the Great Sage

The night is like splashing ink, a bright moon rises quietly, and the vegetation in the water curtain cave is full of soldiers.

The monkeys looked at me and I looked at you, only to realize that General Ba had really disappeared, but no one remembered where they saw him last, and they all shook their heads.

Monkey King stood up and became impatient.Combined with a series of events that happened in the afternoon, it was hard for him not to associate the disappearance of General Ba with the little monkey Liu Ya.

Now he, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, has been king in Huaguo Mountain for hundreds of years, except for the days when he was not there, the monkeys were once bullied by a demon king called Hunshi. Presumptuousness here.Besides, Sun Wukong also went to heaven to become a fairy, so the multiple identities at this time are very cool.

But now someone dared to break ground on Tai Sui's head, and moved so indistinctly that it was enough to drive him crazy.

"I'll go out and look for it." The fox transformed into a pair of knives, turned around and left the water curtain cave.

Sun Wukong's face became more dignified, his golden pupils narrowed slightly, he got up quickly, and said to the monkeys in the hall: "Go back to sleep."

Hearing this, Danqing also went to the depths of Shuilian Cave, before leaving, he did not forget to grab a peach from the table.

She had just gnawed on the peaches and walked slowly back into the cave, and saw Monkey King sitting on the edge of the stone bed with a frowning frown, dragging his chin in a daze with Erlang's legs crossed.

She coughed lightly and sat down on the stone bench next to the stone table.

Seeing her coming back, Sun Wukong stared at her for a moment, and asked her very seriously: "Dan Qing'er, you said that there is nothing in the heavens or the three realms that can record the life and death of a living being, and where does the soul go?"

Danqing was stunned, shrugged and said: "No. I'm afraid the only place that can do these things is the underworld. But you saw it last time in the Palace of King Qin Guang..."

He gets angry when he mentions the underworld.Monkey King scratched his head, pointed to the stone bed, and said to her, "Sleep."

Danqing suddenly had a feeling of wanting a "bridal chamber", and frowned uncomfortably, not knowing whether to go there or not.

At this time, there was a slight knocking sound outside the stone gate, it was Marshal Ma.Monkey King ordered him to come in.

Marshal Ma was taken aback when he entered the room. He saw Sun Wukong sitting cross-legged on the edge of the bed with a wild and unrestrained face. Opposite Danqing was sitting on a stone bench with his head lowered and playing with the hem of his clothes with an aggrieved expression. Women's drama?Marshal Ma paused, walked up to Sun Wukong, and said in a low voice: "My lord, General Ba is back, and he suffered some injuries on his leg, which he said was scratched by a tree branch. It's nothing serious. Now rest in the hall."

Monkey King finally felt relieved, stood up and said, "Go and have a look."

Dan Qing followed him to the main hall, and saw that General Ba's clothes were torn, and there was a strip of cloth tied on his right thigh, which was still stained with blood.She frowned worriedly.

"Your Majesty." Seeing Monkey King approaching, General Ba quickly stood up and bowed.

Sun Wukong hurriedly pushed him back on the stool, and said, "How did you make it look like this?"

General Ba immediately showed shame, and said: "This subordinate is incompetent, his hand slipped while swinging the tree and vines, and he fell from the tree and fell down the mountain."

Danqing raised her eyebrows, she thought that monkeys roaming the mountains and vines would never let go of their hands and fall down.Maybe it's because the four athletes are getting old and their hands and feet are not flexible?

Sun Wukong nodded and said: "It's good to come back. My grandson thought you met some bad guys on the mountain."

General Ba was in a daze, shook his head and said, "There are no villains in the mountains."

Monkey King asked again: "Then did you see the fox? She went out to find you."

General Ba still shook his head and said, "Never seen."

"Forget it, let's go back and rest earlier." Sun Wukong waved his hand, and General Ba reluctantly stood up and walked towards the other side of the cave.

Danqing was grateful for the fact that he brought her to play leaf cards in the afternoon, so she ran up to help him go out, and said, "Slow down, I'll bring you the leftover herbs later."

General Bar nodded gratefully.

Danqing opened the stone door for him, carefully helped him in, and sighed a little.Looking at her white toes, she said helplessly: "We were playing cards happily in the afternoon and nothing happened. The big monkey and the little monkey took a nap together. Now that something like this happened, It's a real pain."

General Ba still nodded, and complimented: "Fairy Danqing's card skills are superb, let's have a good match some other day."

Danqing was startled, and turned her head to look at him suspiciously.He still had a kind smile on his face, without the slightest hint of sarcasm.So the card skills are outstanding - are you praising her sincerely? !She blinked her eyes in horror, and helped the old monkey back to the room.

After returning to the cave, Danqing took the leftover herbs from the cabinet and wanted to bring them to General Ba. As soon as he went out of the cave, he saw the fox coming back from outside.

Dressed like fire, she put away her two knives and stroked her long braids, making her very conspicuous in the silent night.

"General Ba is back." When Danqing saw the fox, he felt faintly apprehensive, so he twitched the corners of his mouth, and said, "He fell off the mountain while swinging trees and vines and injured his leg. I'm just going to get herbs."

"Don't bother, just give it to me." The fox stepped forward and snatched the herb pot out of Danqing's hand very rudely, and gave her a stern look before walking into General Ba's cave with the pot in his arms.

Danqing made her stare so hard that she wanted to fight coldly.She sighed and hurried back to her cave.

Sun Wukong was already lying down with his hands on his pillow.A pair of combat boots have not been taken off, and Erlang's legs are raised and swayed gently even if he is lying down.Danqing climbed up along the end of the bed, and lay down against the wall, allowing himself to occupy only a small space on the bed.

Sun Wukong raised his hand to turn off the light, and after a while he turned his head to look at her black hair, and said, "When are you going back to Heaven?"

Danqing was taken aback, she didn't expect him to ask her such a question.She bit her lip, pinched the corner of her clothes, and pretended to be relaxed and said, "I don't know, someone is looking for me and I'll go back."

After a pause, he said softly, "Can't you go back?"

She didn't understand whether he meant to ask her to go back or stay, so she laughed at herself: "I'm a lazy person, I'm already used to judging cases by myself. Besides, I have Junior Sister Yushi to help him, so it shouldn't be a problem .”

He lowered his voice and said, "Then do you want to go back?"

Of course she didn't want to go back.Regardless of whether it was just for the fairy body born from the Nuwa stone, in short, she didn't really want to go back, she just wanted to stay with him in Huaguo Mountain.But it was absurd to answer him like that.Danqing smiled wryly again, was stunned for a while, and asked him quietly: "Does the Great Sage want me to go back?"

She waited for a long time, but there was no answer behind her.She turned around quietly, only to see that he was breathing peacefully and his little red nose was moving.Probably because this day is too tiring and I have worked too much.She breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly didn't want to know the answer.

Although the lamp was dark and there were only wisps of moonlight leaking through the cracks in the cave, she could draw his outline very accurately with her gaze.Somewhat disappointed, she raised her hand to touch his monkey hair, but she didn't even dare to touch his cheek.

A strange sensation came from the right eye.The first time I made this mistake was 100 years ago.And lately, it's happening more often.She knew that she didn't have much time left.But she didn't know how she could make up her mind to take away the body of the person in front of her.

At this time, there was a gust of bitter wind in the cave.She quickly withdrew her hand in fright.A figure immediately appeared beside the bed, gently pushed Sun Wukong's shoulder, and said, "Brother Wukong, I have something important to do."

Sun Wukong immediately opened his eyes.The fox turned back and lit the candle, watching the scene of the two sleeping opposite each other on the stone bed, as if being pierced by a sharp knife, his eyes were filled with bitterness.But her gaze couldn't leave the little fairy in white on the bed.She looks really lovely.The fox gritted his teeth, and said in a low voice, "I doubt it's General Ba who came back."

Monkey King stood up from the bed and said, "Why do you say that?"

"Just now I took herbs and went in to treat his wound." The fox turned his head to look in the direction of Shimen, lowered his voice, and said, "Since he entered the door, he evaded and said that he can solve it. At first, I just thought I was following Shimen." I was polite, but then I refused in every possible way. I felt something was wrong, so I just tore off the cloth strip from his leg to cover his wound—the wound was the same as the one on Liu Ya’s neck. I think that body should be General Ba, someone Injured him and occupied his body to sneak into the Water Curtain Cave."

When Danqing heard this kind of thing, his back froze.

Upon hearing this, Monkey King clenched his fists and was about to run out.The fox hurriedly stopped him, saying: "Don't act rashly. We don't know the purpose of his coming, but he has accomplices. We might as well observe for a few days before we talk about it."

Danqing rarely agreed with the fox's point of view, nodded, and said: "The fox is right. If he has accomplices, we will scare the snake." She lowered her head and thought for a while, and said: "When I helped him back to his room, by chance He mentioned that we played leaf cards together. He praised me for my superb poker skills. At that time, I thought it was wrong."

"It's unreasonable." Sun Wukong exhaled heavily, and said to the fox, "We must keep an eye on him tonight and pay attention to his every move."

The fox raised the corner of his mouth and said, "I have secretly asked Marshal Ma to keep an eye on it."

"Well done." Sun Wukong glanced at Danqing again, rolled his eyes, and said bitterly: "It's a pity that he took General Ba's body, otherwise we could have arrested him and tortured him."

Before the words were finished, the door of the cave was roughly pushed open.Marshal Ma walked in anxiously, and said, "Your Majesty, the person pretending to be General Ba is gone!"

Monkey King was startled: "What?"

Several people followed Marshal Ma to his cave, and sure enough, only Marshal Liu and General Beng were there.

"It seems that he knows that we found him." Danqing grabbed the corner of Sun Wukong's clothes and said, "What should we do now?"

Sun Wukong took out the golden cudgel from his ear, blew it over with a breath of immortal energy, turned it into a big stick, and said to the entrance of the Water Curtain Cave, "Chase."
