If he guessed correctly, some Buddhist cultivators must have come while he was in the Small World.
If he continued to linger around the Lion Camel Cave, the Buddhists would find out and send cultivators to kill him. That would be bad.
He had saved the Jinghe Dragon King in Chang 'an, kidnapped the Third Prince Yu Long at the Yingchou Stream, and weakened the seal at the Five Fingers Mountain. He had already alerted the Buddhists, but his identity had not been exposed yet.
Mu Qingxiao did not forget that he was wanted by the Heavenly Court. If he exposed his identity and provoked the Buddhists, he would be surrounded by both sides. Even if he could kill a Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, he would not be able to withstand the attacks of the Heavenly Court and the Buddhists.
The Indigo Lion, White Elephant, and Roc were already dead. As for the tens of thousands of demons around the Lion Camel Cave, Mu Qingxiao was not in the mood to deal with them.
A hundred miles away from the Lion Camel Mountain, the void twisted slightly. Then, a black crack appeared. The crack gradually expanded until it formed a black door.
Stepping out of the Space Door, Mu Qingxiao's starry eyes scanned the surroundings. After leaving the Lion Camel Mountain, he heaved a sigh of relief. Looking away, he turned into a ray of sword light and returned to the Sacrificial Competition.
Along the way, Mu Qingxiao passed by other countries. All he saw were empty cities.
It seemed that the Golden-Winged Great Roc had eaten all the citizens along the way as it headed to the Sacrificial Competition.
In the original work, the Roc had committed so many crimes but did not lose a single feather because of its connection with the Buddhists. Mu Qingxiao was even more disdainful of the Buddhists.
They said that they would save all living beings and that the Light of Buddha would shine, but they allowed demons to descend to the mortal world to eat humans and do evil. They said all the nice things but did not do anything. Who knew how many evil things they had done behind the scenes.
From the Jinghe Dragon King incident, Mu Qingxiao knew that the Buddhists could not be trusted.
Along the way, he returned to the Sacrificial Competition. This was a country of death. There was not a single person in the huge country. It was frighteningly cold.
However, this was the only way for Tang Sanzang. After passing through the Sacrificial Competition, a hundred miles to the west should be the Five Villages Temple.
It had already been a few months since they started their journey to the west. Tang Sanzang should be passing by here soon.
Mu Qingxiao did not dare to barge into the Fifth Manor by himself. Grand Immortal Zhen Yuan was the Ancestor of Earthly Immortals, a Sage-to-be. If a mere Golden Immortal like him barged in alone, he would definitely die.
After returning to the Sacrificial Competition Nation, Mu Qingxiao went to the entrance and sat down cross-legged. She concealed her aura and waited quietly.
…
…
At the same time, several figures were walking slowly in the wild forest dozens of miles away from the Sacrificial Competition.
One of them was wearing a yellow robe and a tight headband. He had a hairy face and a thunderous mouth. If Mu Qingxiao were here, she would recognize him immediately. He was the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Sun Wukong.
Behind Sun Wukong was a fat wild boar with black fur all over its body.
Riding on the back of the wild boar was a monk with red lips and white teeth. He was the reincarnation of the Golden Cicada Master, Tang Sanzang. Following behind the wild boar was a monk who was carrying luggage.
The monk had a head of red fluffy hair. His round eyes were as bright as lamps. His face was neither black nor blue. He wore a yellow cloak with white vines tied around his waist. There were nine skulls hanging from his neck. He looked quite imposing.
This person should be Monk Sha.
"Hehe, Bajie, you were not tempted by the mother and daughter. How strange!"
Sun Wukong jumped onto a huge rock and looked at Zhu Bajie, who was carrying Tang Sanzang, with a surprised smile on his face.
"Humph."
The wild boar snorted and said in human language, "I already have Cuilan. Why would I want other women? Besides, the mother and daughter are strange. Don't think I don't know. "
"You are smart this time. The mother and daughter are transformed by Bodhisattvas. I guess they are here to test our Zen Mind. I don't know what other tricks are waiting for us. We will have a lot of fun along the way."
Hearing this, Zhu Bajie's eyes were full of excitement.
After he settled Gao Cuilan and asked for the opinion of the elders, he was going to marry a beautiful wife and a rich father-in-law. He would not have to worry about food and clothing. He was definitely going to reach the peak of his pig life.
But who would have thought that on the day of the wedding, the monkey would bring Tang Xuanzang into the Gaojia Village and expose his identity?
With a beautiful wife at home, he was not willing to go to the Western Paradise to find the scriptures. But the monkey beat him out of his original form and scared his father-in-law and his family out of their wits.
After that, he had no choice but to tell them the whole story.
After knowing that he was a pig demon, Gao Cuilan cried her heart out. But what was done was done. She could only marry him.
After the wedding, Zhu Bajie could only embark on the journey to the west under Sun Wukong's tyranny.
"Amitabha."
Tang Sanzang chanted and put his palms together. "Wukong, how can you say that? The Bodhisattvas have put in a lot of effort so that we can successfully find the scriptures. We must remember that the journey to find the scriptures is bumpy. Don't be tempted."
"Yes, Master."
Only the hardworking Monk Sha responded to Tang Sanzang's words. As for Zhu Bajie and Sun Wukong, they ignored him.
"Master, it's too late to say this. Bajie is already married. When we reach the Western Paradise, I don't know if the Bodhisattvas will accept him."
Sun Wukong glanced at Zhu Bajie with a half-smile.
"Hmph, I don't care about becoming a Buddha. When the journey is over, I will return to the Gaojia Village and live a good life with Cuilan."
After that, Zhu Bajie carried Tang Sanzang on his back. When he thought of Gao Cuilan, who was waiting for him at the Gaojia Village, he quickened his pace.
"Sigh, don't say too much. Let's hurry. After we cross the mountain in front, we will reach the Sacrificial Competition. The king of the Sacrificial Competition has an affinity with the Buddha. He will definitely treat us well."
As Zhu Bajie ran on all fours, he climbed over a mountain and a huge country came into view. In the middle of the country, he could even see a tall pagoda.
"Wait."
Sun Wukong's eyes shone with golden light. He stared at the Sacrificial Competition and said, "Master, there is no one in this country. There must be something fishy. Bajie, you and Junior Brother Sha protect Master. I will go scout the way first."
After that, Sun Wukong's figure rose and flew toward the Sacrificial Competition.
"An empty city?"
Tang Sanzang was puzzled. Along the way, they asked the villagers. They all said that the Sacrificial Competition was a prosperous country. How could there be no one in the city?
At the same time, Mu Qingxiao, who was sitting cross-legged in the void, slowly opened her eyes. Looking at the group in front of her, a smile appeared on her face.
Unexpectedly, after she kidnapped the Third Prince Yu Long, there were only four people in Tang Sanzang's group. Without the White Dragon Horse, the latter could only use the pig as a means of transportation.
Behind Tang Sanzang's group were the Five Truths of Buddhism. Mu Qingxiao had no intention of showing herself.
It was only a hundred miles from here to the Fifth Manor of the Longevity Mountain. If they sped up, they would arrive in no time.
