Tang Seng rested in the woods for three days before his sore waist and knees symptoms subsided. During this time, the Scorpion Demon came several times, transforming himself into a village woman and bringing food and drinks to the group.

Of course, the most important thing was to send supplements to her husband Tang Xuanzang. Unfortunately, the medicinal soups were too nutritious and Tang Seng did not get any benefit from eating them. The ginseng soup stewed with thousand-year-old ginseng made his nose bleed after one sip. In the end, Cheng Long and Bajie got the advantage.

These days are also the happiest days for Scorpio, as she can meet her lover in private every day.

However, Tang Seng was eager to obtain the scriptures, so as soon as his body recovered a little, he called Cheng Long and two disciples to continue the journey to the west.

Time flows like a trickle of water, and before we know it, several months have passed.

Ever since a group of bandits suddenly jumped out on the road not long ago and were beaten to death by Cheng Long with a stick, the "Sun Wukong" in the team seemed to have become a different person. He actually listened to Tang Seng's words, but never provided them with a tent for the night. As a result, Tang Seng, who was used to sleeping in a tent, had to sleep in the open for nearly a month.

One day, Tang Seng, who was riding on horseback, suddenly opened his collar, wiped the sweat off his face, and said, "The weather is getting hotter and hotter. Wujing, do you have any water?"

"No more master."

Sha Seng shook his head.

Now all the food and drinks are in his shoulder pole, and he knows best whether there is water in the water bag.

"Oh, I'm so thirsty!"

Zhu Bajie sat down on the ground, turned his head and said to Sun Wukong: "Brother Sun, please go to the front and fetch some water! I am so thirsty that I don't want to move!"

"Okay, you guys keep going, I'll go ahead and get some information."

Sun Wukong didn't care much as they continued walking like this, but Tang Seng was a mortal and wouldn't be thirsty for too long. Sun Wukong didn't want anything to happen to the monks, so he had to go to the front to fetch some water.

Tang Seng said, "Brother Sun, thank you for your help."

After Sun Wukong flew away, Zhu Bajie took a few steps forward and walked to the side of the white horse dragon. He held the reins and looked up at Tang Seng on the horse.

"Master."

Zhu Bajie seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if he had something to say.

Upon hearing this, Tang Seng lowered his head and looked at Zhu Bajie.

"Brother Sun, he..." Zhu Bajie seemed to be pondering something in his mind, and his expression was a little hesitant, as if he was considering whether to say it or not.

Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Tang Seng asked in a gentle voice, "What's wrong?"

"I feel like something's wrong with Brother Sun..."

Zhu Bajie was about to speak when Sha Wujing interrupted him: "Second Brother, there seem to be dozens of people at the foot of that abandoned mountain ahead."

Sha Seng pointed diagonally in front of him and stretched his neck to look over there: "Master, they seem to be holding basins to collect water."

Looking in the direction Sha Wujing pointed, I saw more than twenty people collecting water there.

These twenty or so people had dark complexions and dry skin, and they included both old and young.

At first glance, they are the poor people who are always hungry and thirsty.

Monk Sha asked, "Master, should we go over there?"

Tang Seng thought for a while, nodded and said, "Let's go and take a look."

"okay."

Sha Seng nodded and hurried over with his load on his shoulder.

The location of the twenty or so people was about two or three miles away from Tang Seng and his companions. When the master and his two disciples were almost halfway there, Sun Wukong, who had gone out to explore the way, flew back.

Sun Wukong came down from his somersault cloud, walked to Tang Seng, and told him about his exploration: "Sanzang, there is a flaming mountain about ten miles ahead. It stretches endlessly and you can't see the end. If we want to go west, we must pass by that volcano. There is no way around it."

"This……"

Tang Seng suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the temperature was getting hotter and hotter. The water that could last for several days in the past was finished in just half a day today.

It’s just that the volcano more than ten miles away cannot be bypassed, so we have to move forward. We can take a detour to the west, but if we encounter a road that cannot be bypassed, we have to follow the strategy of finding a road when we reach the mountain.

So, the group moved forward again and soon arrived at the water point two miles away.

At the foot of the mountain, dozens of people were squatting or sitting. Everyone's skin was very dark and cracked. Even the women's skin was so dry that it was unbearable to look at.

Tang Seng skillfully dismounted from his horse and said to Zhu Bajie, "Wujing, share the bread with these people."

"it is good."

Sha Seng nodded.

While Sha Seng was distributing the noodles, Tang Seng walked up to an old man who was over 60 years old, put his hands together, bowed slightly, and performed a Buddhist salute to the old man.

Seeing this, the old man quickly returned the greeting to Tang Seng.

"Old man, where is this place?"

“Why is the mountain ahead on fire?”

The old man pointed straight ahead and replied, "The mountain ahead is called the Flaming Mountain. It burns all year round, regardless of spring, summer, autumn or winter. Are you going there?"

"We are going to the Great Leiyin Temple in Lingshan Mountain to seek the true scriptures. We must go all the way west. Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, we have to wade through them."

Tang Seng's willpower is getting stronger and stronger. It may be because he has experienced the love between a young man and a woman, which makes his determination to become a Buddha stronger. For some things, you really can only know the pros and cons of them after experiencing them.

The Scorpion Demon made his body sore for several days in just one night.

Woman, he really doesn't dare to touch her again!

Upon hearing this, the old man shook his head and said, "But the Flaming Mountain is not an ordinary mountain! Even if you have a copper head and an iron body, if you want to cross the Flaming Mountain, you will probably turn into juice."

At this time, Bajie also came over curiously, squeezed in between Tang Seng and Sun Wukong, bent down, smiled and asked the old man: "Then there is no other way?"

The old man thought for a moment after hearing this and said, "There is a Banana Cave on Cuiyun Mountain, a thousand miles away from Huoyan Mountain. In the Banana Cave lives an Iron Fan Fairy who has a magic weapon called the Banana Fan, which can put out fire."

"If you can borrow the palm leaf fan and use it to put out the flames, you should be able to cross the Flaming Mountain."

"That's not difficult."

Zhu Bajie nodded.

Then, Bajie glanced at the thoughtful Sun Wukong and said, "Brother Sun, if I remember correctly, the Iron Fan Fairy is the first wife of the Bull Demon King! You and the Bull Demon King are brothers who have had a drink together. I think it won't be a problem for you to go to that sister-in-law to borrow the palm leaf fan."

When Tang Seng and Sha Wujing heard what Bajie said, they also turned their attention to Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong looked a little embarrassed, but he quickly concealed it and said in a casual manner, "Then you guys stay here. I'll go to Cuiyun Mountain now."

"Okay, be careful."

Tang Seng habitually reminded.

Perhaps it was because Sun Wukong had been obedient to him in recent times, his previous awe of 'Big Brother Sun' was gradually disappearing, and now only dependence was left.

Yes.

Whether before or after Sun Wukong's transformation, Tang Seng and his disciples needed to rely on him.

"Do not worry!"

Sun Wukong smiled slightly.

Then, he looked around and was about to say something else when Zhu Bajie urged him, "Brother Sun, hurry up and borrow the palm leaf fan to put out the Flaming Mountain. Then the weather won't be so hot. This is a great good deed for the people!"

Sun Wukong glanced at Zhu Bajie and said, "Protect your master well."

"I know, I know."

Bajie waved his hands impatiently.

He didn't think that there would be any monsters in such a hot and dry place that would be willing to take root and become king here.

However, Sun Wukong did not leave. Instead, he took out his golden cudgel and drew a golden circle around Tang Seng: "Sanzang, don't walk out of this circle." Tang Seng said: "Okay."

After Sun Wukong flew away on the cloud, Zhu Bajie sat down next to Tang Seng and fanned him with his hands while saying, "Master, will this make us cooler?"

Tang Seng looked back and saw that Bajie was sweating profusely, but he was fanning him to dispel the heat. He thanked him and said, "Bajie, your ears are relatively large. Fanning with your ears should be cooler than using your hands."

"..."

Bajie's face turned black and he stopped fanning himself abruptly.

Tang Seng shook his head slightly, a smile appearing in his eyes.

Seeing this, an old man nearby asked, "Holy monk, where are you from?"

"I come from the Tang Dynasty in the East."

Tang Seng has said this sentence countless times, but every time he hears someone ask him, he will still respond patiently and behave very kindly.

The old man was surprised when he heard this: "So you are a great monk from the Tang Dynasty. I am so sorry for your disrespect!"

Cuiyun Mountain.

Banana Cave.

"Sister-in-law, I would like to borrow your palm-leaf fan. Is it convenient?" Sun Wukong was invited into the cave by Princess Iron Fan's maid. Without saying a few polite words, he got straight to the point.

"If you were my second uncle, it wouldn't be a problem, but unfortunately you are a fake."

Princess Iron Fan waved the wine glass in her hand, with a hint of mockery on her face.

"Uh~~Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? How could I be a fake?"

Sun Wukong was stunned at first, then he looked puzzled, as if he was bewildered by his sister-in-law's words.

"My second uncle is the Monkey King, who is born extraordinary. How can a monkey like you who is less than five feet tall pretend to be him?" Princess Iron Fan said sarcastically.

"you……"

Just as Sun Wukong was about to get angry, he saw Cheng Long, dressed in white and holding a palm-leaf fan, walking out of Princess Iron Fan's boudoir.

"Six-eared Macaque, I let you impersonate me because I wanted to take a break, but you turned out to be so servile to Tang Monk and obeyed his orders. If I let you continue to impersonate me, I, Sun Wukong, will lose all my face." Cheng Long said in a tone of regret.

He had just killed the bandits who wanted to rob Tang Seng and his party, and was about to go back to relax after having some ideological differences with Tang Seng, when the Six-Eared Macaque suddenly jumped out and impersonated himself.

This was exactly what he wanted.

Since someone is traveling to the West on your behalf, there is naturally no need to exert any effort.

He only needs to wait until Tang Seng and his companions are about to reach the West, and then exchange the Six-Eared Macaque back, and he will not lose any of the credit he deserves.

Unfortunately, the six-eared macaque is so weak.

When facing Tang Seng, he never knew how to refute, which made Bajie and Tang Seng notice something unusual early on.

If it weren't for the fact that Liu'er Macaque's transformation skills were quite sophisticated, Bajie would not have been just a simple suspicion.

"How can your face be more important than becoming a Buddha? You shouldn't have come back. It would have been better for you to stay in Huaguo Mountain. Why did you come out to die?"

Seeing the true master, Liu'er Mihou was too lazy to disguise himself. He directly took out his iron-clad soldiers and smashed them towards Cheng Long's head.

"Certainly!"

Cheng Long's words came out as a golden ban, which penetrated into the body of the six-eared macaque like lightning.

Liu'er, who was swinging the stick, suddenly stopped and stood still.

This monkey's cultivation is not low, he is at the early stage of Daluo Jinxian. Even if he forced Princess Iron Fan behind the Bull Demon King's back, he could still fight back with the old bull.

However, the one he was facing was a Hunyuan Golden Immortal, and a great master who had reached the perfect state of Hunyuan Golden Immortal.

In front of Cheng Long, Liu'er Macaque had no power to resist at all.

"Uncle, what are you going to do with this monkey?"

When Princess Iron Fan saw her second uncle, who was able to immobilize the Golden Immortal with just one restriction, she was so excited that she couldn't wait to push him down.

only……

Considering that the pilgrims have already reached the Flaming Mountain, the powerful beings from the three realms might turn their attention to the Banana Cave, but he had to suppress the passionate emotions in his heart.

It's okay to take advantage of your second uncle behind his back.

That won’t work in front of the powerful beings in the three realms.

She also wants to lose face.

"It depends on whether this monkey knows how to be funny or not."

Cheng Long walked up to the six-eared macaque, took the Sui Xin Iron Cudgel from his hand, weighed it, and found it was not light, but its grade was far inferior to the upgraded Ruyi Jingu Bang.

"Six-eared macaque, do you want to live or die?"

Cheng Long no longer cared about his cultivation being exposed, because he was no longer afraid of anyone. Even if the Buddha himself came, he could fight with him back and forth, with a 50-50 chance of winning or losing.

"..."

The six-eared macaque couldn't open his mouth, and even his eyelids couldn't move.

But from his frightened eyes, one could see a strong desire to survive.

"It seems that you have made a decision. Then I will give you a way out. The Xiliang Women's Kingdom is still in need of a great monkey general. You can go and take up the position. Remember to tell the Queen of Xiliang my name."

Done.

Cheng Long then removed the restriction and threw Sui Xin's iron soldiers back.

"Thank you, Great Sage, for your mercy!"

The six-eared macaque took the weapon and thanked him quickly.

After realizing the gap between himself and Sun Wukong, Liu'er no longer had the idea of ​​killing the other and replacing him.

"Go!"

Cheng Long waved his hand.

The six-eared macaque hesitated for a moment and asked, "Great Sage, if the Queen of Xiliang doesn't want me, can I return to my cave to practice meditation?"

"can."

Cheng Long cherishes words like gold.

Upon seeing this, the six-eared macaque bowed in thanks and turned to leave.

The six-eared macaque, who should have been killed by the Buddha, had his fate completely changed when he went to Xiliang. Not only did he successfully serve as the great monkey general of the Xiliang Women's Kingdom, he also met a snake demon there and achieved a happy ending with her.

Cheng Long borrowed the palm-leaf fan from Mrs. Niu and returned to the journey to the West.

After reuniting with Tang Seng and his disciples, he immediately rode a auspicious cloud to the top of the Flaming Mountain, then recited the spell given to him by Princess Iron Fan, enlarged the palm-leaf fan, and fanned it at the burning flames below.

The banana fan was originally a magical treasure created by heaven and earth since the beginning of the chaos behind Kunlun Mountain. It is the essence of the Taiyin leaf, and its attribute is extremely yin. The extremely yin banana fan can fan away water vapor.

Water can conquer fire.

So it can extinguish the blazing fire on the top of the mountain.

It didn't take long for Cheng Long to put out the anger on the top of the mountain with his palm leaf fan! (End of this chapter)
