My Journey to the West on the Heavenly Road

Chapter 208 Seven Years
The ten feet wide cave was already occupied by peach trees, and once the majestic body rolled in, there was no space left.

As soon as the gray donkey turned around, he saw the peach tree shaking and the rock cave vibrating.

Jiang Yuan, who was squeezed into the corner, waved away the falling stone chips, and scolded the stupid donkey: "Still going out?"

Wuqian looked at the peach tree that appeared suddenly in surprise, whimpered at Jiang Yuan, and limped out of the cave.

"It seems that I suffered a big loss."

Jiang Yuan shook his head, but he didn't get angry. Instead, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. It would be better to learn a lesson, so that the donkey can calm down.

It is rare to find a blessed place of pure cultivation, where it is time to concentrate on cultivation and review what you have learned. As a result, the donkey couldn't bear the loneliness at all, and ran out after eating the big peaches, wasting such an opportunity.

Of course, if Jiang Yuan forcibly ordered him to stay here to practice, the donkey would obey his orders, but it was inevitable that he would be unwilling and agitated, and practice would be half the effort with twice the effort.

Now that he suffers some grievances, he can take advantage of the situation and urge him to practice well.

Jiang Yuan made up his mind, not to worry about the gray donkey who pretended to be pitiful outside the cave and let out miserable screams from time to time, leisurely looked at the peach tree in front of him and the small flowers on the branches, and said with emotion:
"Supernatural powers and profound methods, if you want to pay attention to 'enlightenment', you can only get an inch of progress by pruning all the branches in your dream."

"Since it has blossomed, it is time to bear fruit."

Jiang Yuan smiled, waved his hand, and saw the peach blossoms curled up, retracted into flower buds, the straight trunk and branches were a little bit soft and shriveled, and the entire peach tree withered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Finally, Jiang Yuan exhaled lightly, and the soft breath blew by, the peach tree scattered into a pile of broken branches without a sound, Jiang Yuan waved his hand again, the strong wind blew, and the broken branches were swept out of the cave.

Wuqian groaned and chirped at the entrance of the cave for a long time, seeing that Jiang Yuan hadn't come out, his eyes rolled, and he was about to turn around and poke his head into the cave, when a piece of broken branch flew out, crackling on the forehead.

Shaking his head to avoid the broken branches, he took a closer look and saw that the peach tree in the cave had disappeared, and his face was full of surprise.

Why did a peach tree suddenly grow and then disappear?
Immediately, the gray donkey came to his senses, his eyes glowed, and he was overjoyed: Great, the master has cultivated a great supernatural power again!Hateful stinky old cow, wait, see if my master doesn't skin you and cramp you!

When Jiang Yuan walked out of the cave, he saw the gray donkey staring at him expectantly with big bright eyes.

Glancing at the scorched black wound on the gray donkey, it looks like Lei Fa, could it be that this stupid donkey has offended the Daoist Taoist?

But judging by his jumping up and down, he should be bluffing, and he didn't suffer any fatal injuries.

Even, not to mention fatal injuries, I'm afraid it's nothing serious at all, but deliberately pretending to be pitiful.

After all, this donkey has been with him all these years. He has drank fairy wine, eaten demon pills, dragon blood, and dragon meat, and now he has eaten two meals of rotten peaches. No matter how intensively cultivated, but his body is definitely not weaker than a real dragon. Even if it is Lei Fa, he may only suffer from it.

It is already the cold winter season, and the cold wind howls in the desolate mountains and forests.

The cold wind blew in, shaking Jiang Yuan's slightly tired spirit. He took a deep breath, and a few traces of coldness entered his stomach, and he suddenly felt refreshed.

In high spirits, Jiang Yuan flipped his hand, and the cold spring sword fell into his palm. He danced a sword flower with his hands, and then jumped up, swung out the sword, and swayed the howling cold wind away.

The cold wind shattered and turned into fine whirlwinds. Jiang Yuan stepped on the whirlwind, turning and moving, climbing step by step, while the light of the sword in his hand danced like a dragon flying, or like mercury pouring down the ground, dancing to the extreme, condensing Make a cloud of cold light, and shine with the sky and the sun.

Jianguang flew higher and higher, farther and farther away, and the gray donkey below became anxious:
Master, if you don't ask me about my injuries, what kind of sword are you dancing?If you wait any longer, that hateful old cow will occupy my shrine and take away my offerings!

Wuqian let out a muffled cry, but saw that Jian Guang didn't pay attention to him at all. Instead, he bared his white teeth, kicked his hooves, and the donkey became angry, and the clouds under his feet surged up into the sky, and rushed towards the Sway the sword light.

"Ah-"

The gray donkey raised its head and neighed, which meant: Master, I, your mount, has been beaten!
However, what he responded to was——

"Good come."

Jiang Yuan laughed loudly, his sword light turned, and a meteor fell to the ground, shooting straight at Gray Donkey's face from top to bottom.

Wuqian was startled, wrapped in clouds and fled to the side, as soon as he stopped, he felt a chill all over his body.

Looking back in a hurry, the sword light was like a dragon swaying its tail, leaving a very charming arc in the air, and it chased again.

Wuqian flashed again in a hurry, but the sword light came again like a gangrene, and after flashing several times, Wuqian directly stepped on the clouds and fled to the sky, avoiding it far away.

Jian Guang just paused, volleyed across the air, and landed on the top of the cliff.

"Ah, uh." Wuqian looked down at the master below and asked a puzzled question.

With his sword in his back, Jiang Yuan looked up at the gray donkey in the sky, shook his head and laughed: "In the past, I ignored it. It's really troublesome for you to escape by stepping on the clouds."

Jiang Yuan is also capable of soaring clouds, but firstly, his cloud soaring technique may not be able to catch up with the donkey, and secondly, Tengyun needs to use twirling spells, so the battle will not be smooth.

"That's it."

Jiang Yuan put the sword back into his cassock, swung his sleeves to sweep away the fallen leaves and weeds on the top of the mountain, then sat cross-legged, raised his head and said loudly: "Come down, tell me what's going on with you."

Wuqianyanlu rejoiced: Master is about to care about me!

The gray donkey cheered, and fell down in an instant, and landed next to Jiang Yuan, then twisted its body, showing the scorched wound on its body.

"I saw it." Jiang Yuan angrily pushed away the twisted big butt, "Didn't you go to be a 'big fairy', why were you beaten?"

Wuqian blinked his big eyes aggrievedly. The gray donkey, a beast as majestic as a rhinoceros, actually assumed the posture of a little daughter-in-law, and Jiang Yuan's eyelids twitched when he saw it.

It hasn't been long since this donkey went to the human world, and he has learned a lot of messy things!

"If you have something to say, just say it, don't say it!"

Jiang Yuan stared, the gray donkey immediately put away his gestures, and said honestly, "Ahhhhhhhh".

Jiang Yuan sorted out the words of the mount: "You mean, you are staying well in your own Great Immortal Palace, and someone knocked on the door. It was a cow demon, um, with a fat belly and a smelly body?"

"Ahhh!" Wuqian nodded heavily, baring his teeth resentfully: That stinky old cow has no great skills, but can spit out thunder, and every time it beats me, I feel numb all over.

Jiang Yuan squinted at the gray donkey: "Thundercraft is the ultimate yang power of heaven and earth, a monster who can cultivate Thundercraft, isn't that considered a great skill?"

Wuqian shrank his head, then pouted again:
That stinky old cow can only catch the wind, but can't step on the clouds, and can't catch up with me at all; after being trampled by me, he almost fainted directly, and he couldn't resist beating.

Just play tricks!Blocking the entrance of my shrine, smashing my gate, and using the servants of my shrine as a shield, if it wasn't for its deceit, it wouldn't be able to hurt me at all!
Jiang Yuan smiled to himself, in this way, it is really not a strong enemy, it is just an ordinary monster with strange magic.

"Wait, the bull demon who knows how to thunder, has a big belly and stinks all over. Could it be that old friend, no, old acquaintance?"

But it is said that in the Huaguoshan battle, Sun Wukong was entangled by Erlang God, was hit by King Kong Zhuo, was defeated and captured to the Heavenly Palace, and then the Caotou God of Guanjiangkou burned Huaguoshan with fire.

Jiang Yuan rushed to Huaguo Mountain after the war, and encountered the God of Caotou burning the mountain to suppress demons, so he did not dare to climb the mountain, and then met a cow demon in the sea outside Huaguo Mountain.

The bull demon has completely transformed its body, only the head of the bull is left. It has a big belly and a greasy face. When it opens its mouth, its mouth is full of stench.

Later, Jiang Yuan made the condition of taking him to see Qingniu, and tricked him into helping to stop the pursuing Guangshou Laogui and Wujin Demon King and his party.

After retreating from the Wujin Demon King, Jiang Yuan only told the Niu Yao that Laojun Qingniu would come to Jindou Cave, Jindou Mountain, Hezhou, Xiniu, and send him away.

Jiang Yuan thought about it, and asked his mount: "The bull demon, is it the body of a bull head, long, uh, a little greasy?"

Wuqian looked at Jiang Yuan in amazement, and nodded again and again: The master is right, that smelly old cow looks disgusting!

Jiang Yuan asked again: "Can he say where he came from and where he is going?"

Wuqian's eyes began to flicker, and he secretly glanced directly at Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan noticed the strangeness of the mount, and immediately turned cold, "Do you have something to hide from me?"

The gray donkey hurriedly shook his head to deny it, but seeing Jiang Yuan's eyes getting colder and colder, he could only stammer and say something.

After Jiang Yuan heard it, he laughed angrily: "Is this still asking people to call me for nothing?"

It turned out that after the Great Immortal Protector of the Country was in charge of the city of Che Chi, its ambitions soared, or in other words, it released the hidden ambitions in its heart, and began to send troops to conquer other city-states in order to establish a country of Che Chi.

Some city-states enshrined alchemists, mages, and even monsters. When Che Chicheng encountered these city-states enshrinement, he naturally invited his own country protector to come forward.

The gray donkey has received a lot of benefits from others, and at the same time enjoys the vanity of being respected by others, so he comes forward to help Che Chicheng solve many big troubles.

However, seeing that Che Chi City has such a big killer, other city-states that do not want to bow their heads to be vassals naturally also look for the "National Protector".

The bull demon who traveled across the ocean to find his ancestors showed his skills when passing through the chaotic land, and was immediately invited to go.

The bull demon had inquired about the news about Jindou Mountain, learned that the ancestor hadn't descended to the realm, and was praised by others for offering delicious food and drink, so he took advantage of the opportunity to stay.

The city-state that invited the cow demon will also come to the matter. Following the example of Che Chicheng, it also built a luxurious shrine for the bull demon. Unfortunately, the financial resources of that city-state are far less than that of Che Chi, and the shrine built is naturally inferior. .

The bull demon inadvertently learned from the attendants that Wuqian's shrine is much more magnificent than his, and seeing that everyone is in awe of Wuqian, the words faintly reveal that the bull demon thinks that Wuqian is not as good as Wuqian.

The bull demon is also a good person, and he feels that the ancestor is about to go down to the realm, so he can't lose the reputation of the ancestor, and the lord of the city who is enshrined in him will fight overtly and secretly.

In the end, the bull demon, full of anger, ran to Che Chi City aggressively, and attacked the Five Thousand Shrine.

The above-mentioned things were all heard by Wuqian from the mouth of the bull demon during the battle.

Of course, the cow demon will not talk nonsense about coming to find the ancestors, he just said that he was passing by looking for relatives, and he heard that there is a domineering demon in Che Chi City, so he came here to eliminate harm for the people.

However, Jiang Yuan was able to confirm that the bull demon who injured five thousand was the one he fooled at the beginning.

"It's really a filial piety to come here from the East China Sea, all the way!"

Jiang Yuan smiled inwardly, but with a blank expression on his face, he stared at the gray donkey coldly, and snorted, "So, you want to invite me out of the mountain to help you teach that bull demon a lesson?"

Wuqian nodded like pounding garlic, his eyes full of anticipation.

Jiang Yuan shook his head directly: "You have been enshrined by others, and you have become the great immortal who protects the country. This difficulty is your cause and effect, and has nothing to do with me."

Wuqian was stunned, completely unexpected that his master would say such "ruthless" words.

According to the donkey's assumption, when he heard that he was being bullied, Jiang Yuan should have been furious on the spot, and went to stand up for him without saying a word.

Jiang Yuan sneered: "Why, do you think I'm heartless?"

The gray donkey nodded instinctively, Jiang Yuan snorted, then shook his head hastily, then put on a flattering smile, arched into Jiang Yuan's arms, and licked it with his tongue.

As soon as Jiang Yuan raised his hand, he pushed back his eager head, no matter how hard he tried, the gray donkey couldn't move forward half an inch.

"The great sage practiced the basic skills here for seven years before he obtained the true skills of the Dao. Since I came here to seek the way, if I can't sit still for seven years, how can I talk about seeking the way?"

Jiang Yuan looked at the mountains and forests, and said leisurely.
