My Journey to the West on the Heavenly Road

Chapter 284 Old Friends (Two in One)

After another heavy snowfall, the snow melted and the weather was getting warmer. Jiang Yuan, who had been in Huaguo Mountain for half a year, was about to leave.

"Master Jiang Yuan, why don't you consider going to Huaguo Mountain?"

"Yes, although Huaguo Mountain has not been completely restored to the former blessed land, adults can live in Xianmiao Peach Valley, where the spiritual energy is very abundant, no worse than before!"

"Okay everyone, the matter of the dojo is related to practice, and even luck. It is the most important thing. Don't be careless. Don't embarrass fellow Daoist Jiang."

Outside the Water Curtain Cave, the old monkey, the four strong generals and the group of monkeys bid farewell to Jiang Yuan and tried their best to keep him.

It was Jiang Yuan who went, after visiting old friends and returning to Nanzhan Buzhou, he would find a cave as a dojo, devote himself to cultivating immortality, and may not come out of the mountain again for several years.

The monkeys felt that Jiang Yuan could build a field in Huaguo Mountain, and even offered to give up the Water Curtain Cave to Jiang Yuan, but Jiang Yuan refused.

Huaguo Mountain is the ancestral line of the Ten Continents. Except for Sun Wukong and other natural saints, others may not have the blessing to occupy this place; moreover, the owner of this place-Sun Wukong will come back sooner or later.

"Hahaha, you and I have already lived forever, and a few years are but a moment, so there is no need to be sad about it. When I find the cave, I will send a letter here, and you can come as guests at that time."

After appeasing all the monkeys and talking to the old monkey a few more words, Jiang Yuan cupped his fists and bid farewell: "If that's the case, I'll go."

A cloud floated up, and the figures in front of the waterfall swayed, went straight into the sky, and headed for Haizhongzhou.

"Jiang Yuan, do you intend to place the cave in the East China Sea, or return to Nanzhan Buzhou?"

In the galloping clouds, King Jin's voice sounded.

Jiang Yuan, who was riding on Wuqian's back, turned his head to look at the golden-haired mouse lying on his shoulder, and said with a casual smile: "After the mundane affairs are over, I will wander around for a while, looking for some elixir, and seeing where I am. Destiny."

The elixir he was looking for was the four kinds of spirits in Fang Ding's ten herbs. As for the ancient herbs in the ten herbs, they had already been gathered.

The names of the four spirits are also known, namely Babaolian, Longgongzhu, Fengshengmu, and Yuyingcao. Among them, the origin of Fengshengmu and Yuyingcao has also been known, and only the "monarch medicine" remains Babaolian, and the "minister drug" Long Gongzhu, are somewhat troublesome.

But Jiang Yuan was not in a hurry.

The elixir given by Fang Ding only increases "nature" and does not cultivate "fate". Although it can help increase combat power, it can't help cultivation. Now he has the Monument of King Yu and has all kinds of supernatural powers and spells, so he is not short of fighting power. The power of war.

For Fang Ding, Jiang Yuan is now more curious than dependent.

After cultivating the Immortal Dao Fruit, you can take some free time and focus on searching for Fang Ding and Ten Herbs, and maybe you can directly collect the seventh and eighth pills.

For the last few pills, Jiang Yuan reckoned that the "monarch medicine" must be a first-level fairy, and it needs to go to ten continents and three islands, a blessed place in the cave, or even a heavenly palace.

"It's better to be in the East China Sea. Nanzhan Buzhou is full of red dust, so it's not a good place to practice."

King Jin rolled his eyes and said solemnly.

Wuqian, who was struggling to step on the cloud, glanced back at the golden mouse, and said contemptuously: "Golden mouse, you say you are ignorant and have little knowledge. Isn't it a good place to practice in Nanzhan Buzhou? Let me tell you, there is a paradise there. Immortals are powerful!"

King Jin sarcastically said: "I know that you five thousand immortals have seen a lot."

Wuqian proudly said, "Of course! I have been to the East and West Seas, the West and South Continents, Bodhi Miaoshan, Dixiandongtian; the ten thousand-year-old fox, the guardian of Buddhism, the heavenly official and the real king, the dragon king and the dragon son." , Hehe, I have dealt with them before."

As he said that, the donkey squinted at Jiang Yuan, a young man with a rough face, red beard, one eye, and a white mark at the corner of his mouth, and snorted:
"In terms of knowledge, don't say you are a mouse, even those dragons, I'm afraid they can't compare with me."

That red-bearded one-eyed young man is naturally the fourth prince of the Jinghe Dragon Mansion, the red-bearded dragon Aochi.

Ao Chi looked at Wuqian with his nostrils upturned expressionlessly, and secretly cursed the damn beast, but he didn't bother to argue with the donkey, because once it started, it would be endless, and the end result was to be punished by Jiang Yuan together.

Moreover, he also knew about this donkey, so now he only dared to say something strange, and he was afraid that Jiang Yuan would get angry, so he dared not do it again.

After rolling his eyes, Ao Chi crossed his arms and glanced at the blue sky, focusing on admiring the passing clouds.

Wuqian was bored, and caught a glimpse of Jiang Yuan's expression that seemed to be a smile, and immediately changed the subject, and continued to King Jin: "So, Jin Mouse, don't shrink back in Huaguo Mountain, come out and see more, long gain knowledge."

The Golden Retriever followed Jiang Yuan to Haizhongzhou this time. First, he also wanted to go back to Taoshi Mountain. Second, on behalf of Water Curtain Cave, he wanted to thank Taoxian and Haizhongzhou Longfu for their help in the past.

Afterwards, Jiang Yuan continued to go west and returned to Zhan Buzhou in the south, while he moved to Huaguo Mountain to practice with the old monkey.

Unlike Jiang Yuan, King Jin has already regarded Huaguo Mountain as his home. Even if he wants to open up caves in the future, he will choose the sea area near Huaguo Mountain.

Wuqian misses the time when everyone was together, and always encourages King Jin to continue to practice with Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan completely respected the wishes of the Golden Retriever, and for this reason, he trained Wuqian several times.

Snapped!
Jiang Yuan patted his twisted head hard, "Don't speak, no one will think you are dumb! Watch the road carefully."

"Obviously it was the golden mouse who opened the mouth first, so I'll fly right away."

Wuqian looked at Jiang Yuan with grievances, and muttered in a low voice, but seeing Jiang Yuan's face turned cold, he quickly yelled, mustered up his magic power and rushed forward.

Huh, the cloud gas suddenly accelerated, and a wisp of white gas crossed the sky.

Departing early in the morning, when we arrived at Taoshishan sea area, there was still a long time before noon.

The winter in Haizhongzhou is later than other places. On the Huaguo Mountain side, the warm wind is gradually rising. However, Taoshi Mountain is covered with snow, as if it has just had a heavy snowfall.

Among the peaks and hills, the silver frost is white, reflecting the multicolored sunshine. On the blue sea and golden sand, the cold wind is howling, and the scattered ships and fishing boats are a little lonely.

Jiang Yuan stopped in mid-air, enjoyed the scenery for a while, and patted his mount, "Let's go to the Temple of the Three Immortals first, and then visit Empress Taoxian."

The cloud swooped down, swept into the Yinbai Mountains, and soon fell to a stone platform in the middle of the mountain.

The peach forest swaying in the cold wind, sprinkled large snowflakes from time to time.

"Edict!"

In the depths of the peach grove, a few monks in cotton robes gathered together, steaming in their mouths, concentrating on the snow on the branches, and chanting curses.

After one of the monks yelled and reprimanded several times, the snow on the branches in front of him melted little by little, turning into thin water.

"It's done! I'm done!"

The monk immediately clapped his hands and shouted, his face flushed with joy.

"Congratulations to Senior Brother Zhang, Senior Brother Zhang is indeed very enlightened."

The other monks embraced enviously and congratulated repeatedly.

With an unstoppable smile, the monk waved his hands reservedly: "Ahem, luck, luck."

This situation reminded Jiang Yuan of the first time he came to Three Immortals Temple, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

However, ten years later, the cultivator in front of him is still young, but he is no longer the same as before.

Without disturbing these monks, he quietly walked through the peach forest and came to the familiar Qingya Shrine.

A young man carried a broom, stepped out of the gate leisurely, looked up, saw Jiang Yuan, and immediately stayed where he was.

Before Jiang Yuan could speak, the young man rushed up, trembling with excitement, "Jiang, Master Jiang Yuan, are you back?!"

Jiang Yuan felt a sense of familiarity from the young man, countless figures flashed in his mind, and suddenly, a handsome young man appeared.

Back then, when Jiang Yuan first came to the Temple of the Three Immortals, there was a handsome young man who taught him the story.

"It's you? You've grown up." Jiang Yuan recognized the young man in front of him and said with a smile.

The young man was a little overwhelmed, scratched his head, and smiled silly, "Do you still remember me?"

Jiang Yuan nodded with a smile, and then asked, "Are you staying in the Temple of the Three Immortals?"

The young man grinned blankly, "Well, I'm not talented enough, and Haizhongzhou Dragon Mansion didn't accept me. When I returned home a few years ago, I learned that my hometown was hit by a tsunami and all my relatives were killed. I had nowhere to go, so I returned to the Temple of the Three Immortals. The Lord took pity on me, so he took me in and did some cleaning chores."

Snapped!
The young man reacted abruptly, and patted his cheek hard, "Oh, I have delayed my lord! Please come in quickly, and I will inform the temple master. You don't know, the temple master has been talking about you several times over the years!"

After introducing Jiang Yuan to the gate, the young man hurried to the backyard.

Jiang Yuan looked at the back of the young man who had left him in the courtyard and disappeared, and couldn't help laughing, but he didn't blame him. Instead, he admired the young man's suffering, but still had such a simple, honest and optimistic attitude.

Perhaps, Yu Hua is really willing to take in young people because he likes his nature.

"Fellow Daoist, you are here! Ever since Taoist Taoist told you that you have returned from seeking the Tao, I have been waiting for you, but I have never seen you."

Accompanied by loud laughter and hurried footsteps, a thin middle-aged man with a whisk in his hand and a crown strode out excitedly.

Seeing Jiang Yuan, the Taoist paused, shook off his whisk, and pretended to blame him: "Fellow Daoist, did you forget that I am waiting for an old friend?"

"Forgive me, forgive me, something has really delayed me." Jiang Yuan sincerely apologized.

The accusing look on Yu Huazhen's face collapsed before he lasted a few breaths, and he blinked at Jiang Yuan, "But it's a big event to overwhelm the Jinghe Dragon Mansion and deter all monsters in the East China Sea?"

Jiang Yuan immediately begged for mercy: "Fellow Daoist, don't make fun of me. You see, I'll come to visit Fellow Daoist right away after I'm done."

"Hahaha, what I'm waiting for is not a joke, but a sincere admiration!" Yu Huazhen laughed.

Jiang Yuan could only shake his head with a wry smile, and was about to speak when a figure turned around from behind Yu Huazhen, and bowed his hands to Jiang Yuan with a smile, "Do you remember, fellow Daoist Jiang?"

The man was dressed as a ranger, with a tiger-headed broadsword on his back, a majestic face, a burly body, and an awe-inspiring aura around him.

"Friend Daoist Ren?" Jiang Yuan asked in surprise.

Ren Liang, a ghost cultivator, Haizhong Continent's "Human Cao Guan", was invited by Fang Xiandao to help him fight in order to break the bloody formation of the Nine-Headed Insect during the Taoshishan battle.

"Jiang Daoyou can still remember me, it's my honor." Ren Liang smiled happily.

Jiang Yuan complimented: "Daoist friend holds a tiger-headed saber, and the heroic figure of the bloody figure, every time I think of it, I am always amazed."

Ren Liang's eyes lit up, his smile became more and more joyful, he waved his hands again and again and said: "Compared with fellow Taoists, my little knowledge is really not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning."

"Okay, there's no need for the two of you to compliment each other here, just follow me to the table."

Yu Huazhen laughed and interrupted Jiang Yuan and Ren Liang's ceremony, bowed slightly, and spread his hands to attract.

"Fellow Daoists, please."

Jiang Yuan and Ren Liang raised their hands almost at the same time, then looked at each other and smiled.

"Don't let it go, both of you are distinguished guests, let's go together."

Yu Huazhen shook his head and smiled wryly, rolled up the whisk, pulled one with each hand, pulled up Jiang Yuan and the two together, then turned his head to Wuqian and Jin Dawang who were lagging behind and said with a smile:
"It's been a long time since you two have made great progress in your cultivation. Congratulations. Hurry up and invite you to be seated."

The donkey and the golden mouse were dissatisfied with being ignored and were about to yell, but their expressions suddenly changed, and they said happily: "Guan Yu, you seem to have improved your cultivation, congratulations."

Yu Huazhen glanced at the donkey and the mouse and was a little speechless, the two were still so incongruous, where did he show improvement?

Shaking his head, ignoring these two guys, Yu Huazhen looked at the red-bearded young man who had been silently following at the end, and asked curiously, "Who is this?"

"He's my attendant." Jiang Yuan chuckled, then turned around, "Ao Chi, haven't you met the two fellow Taoists yet?"

Ao Chi pursed his lips, bowed his hands to Yu Huazhen and Ren Liang, and saluted, "I pay my respects to the two elders."

Ao Chi?

Yu Huazhen and the two touched the name, suddenly remembered the rumors, and immediately showed astonishment, in disbelief: This rumor is actually true, Jiang Yuan really took a dragon son as a servant? !
"Since you are Jiang Daoyou's attendant, you are not an outsider, so there is no need to be polite."

Although shocked, the two of them were not ordinary practitioners after all, and they didn't show any signs of panic. They raised their hands calmly and responded.

After Ao Chi finished his salute, he backed away silently, standing with his hands tied blankly.

Wuqian snorted coldly at the red-bearded dragon who was pretending in his eyes, and urged Yu Huazhen, "Monastery Master, hurry up, I came from Huaguo Mountain early in the morning, my stomach is already empty."

"Okay, take your seat."

Yu Huazhen laughed out loud and led everyone to the backyard.

After a while, the atmosphere in the banquet hall in the inner courtyard was hot.

Jiang Yuan sat by the window, drank a few cups of warm wine, and suddenly caught a glimpse of two figures flashing across the courtyard.

One big and one small, they are like apes, with a pair of white round ears, golden pupils, the big one is tall and tall like a man, and the small one is chubby like a child.

The little chubby ape rushed across the courtyard with a smile on his face, threw himself into the small pavilion by the lotus pond, and fiddled with the snow beside the pavilion with his little paws.

The "big ape" followed behind with a doting expression on his face.

Suddenly, the little fat ape noticed Jiang Yuan's gaze, turned his head, and saw a stranger with strange eyes, which made him dislike it very much.

And for some reason, he has an indescribable dislike for that stranger!
"Bah!" The little chubby ape grinned, his eyes flashed golden, and he opened his mouth to shout, "Jiang!"

"Ok?"

Jiang Yuan suddenly snorted coldly, a divine light flashed in his pupils.

The little ape's face changed, and when he reached the name on his lips, he couldn't say it anyway, his open mouth froze, sweating profusely.

Then, wow burst into tears.

The big ape suddenly had a fierce look on his face, bared his fangs and turned his head to look, just as he was about to get angry, he instantly recognized Jiang Yuan and couldn't help being taken aback.

Jiang Yuan lost the light in his eyes, the little ape regained his freedom, hurriedly hid behind the big ape, and glared at Jiang Yuan angrily.

Jiang Yuan smiled, didn't care, turned his head to look at Yu Huazhen, pointed to the courtyard and said, "Fellow Daoists let these ferocious beasts go free, aren't you afraid of hurting others?"

Yu Huazhen had spotted the big and small figures in the courtyard a long time ago, looked at Jiang Yuan and said with a smile:

"After that big battle, their mother and son are already Taoshishan's 'spirit beasts', and they won't hurt anyone. That little brat was so cruel to fellow daoist, I'm afraid he still remembers what you did back then."

Jiang Yuan suddenly smiled wryly, "He can remember things."

The figure in the courtyard is mother and son, it is the ancient strange beast that can call people's names and swallow people's souls, 狌狌.

During the battle at Taoshishan, the mother had just given birth to a cub, but was pulled by Jiang Yuan to forcibly fight against King Yutamarette.

The bald, wrinkled cub that was held in the arms of the mother at that time has also grown up.

However, it seems to be a little fatter.
