Chapter 217: It turns out that the prejudice in people

Seeing this, Sun Wukong couldn't help but say one more sentence.

"Little Daoist, little Daoist, do you think what you think is good for her is really good for her?"

"If the destiny cannot be changed, don't leave any regrets."

These two sentences were like a blow to the head for the little Daoist.

Nezha was thoughtful again, but still didn't think clearly.

What he didn't understand was, should he be good to her? Or should he not be good to her?

"Many thanks, Great Sage, for pointing out the maze."

"Alas. You little Daoist, you know our identities, but you have never worshipped, why do you only respect Old Sun as the Great Sage Equal to Heaven now?"

The little Daoist smiled and bowed to apologize. "Gods, Buddhas, do not ask about worldly affairs, do not touch causality."

"The suffering of the people in the world has always been solved by humans themselves."

"So although I am cultivating the Dao, besides being dedicated to solving the suffering of the world, I am even more free and easy in the world."

"I ask myself, I believe God is there but I don't fear God. I know Buddha is there, but I don't believe in Buddha."

"Only those who bear causality themselves, change destiny, and build great achievements for my Great Tang, eternal achievements, deserve my worship."

He worshipped, naturally, Tang An.

"You little Daoist are interesting; when we catch the demon, if you and I are really destined, what does it matter if I accept you as a disciple."

Actually, Tang An had already passed this tribulation; she didn't need to catch any more demons.

But there were demons making trouble nearby, and since they knew, there was no reason not to care.

Therefore, their group let Xiaotian Quan lead the way to find the breath of the old man's son, Changsheng.

After seeing them off, the little Daoist turned to face the cave entrance.

"Susu, it's me, I'm back, open the door quickly."

Susu heard it in the cave, but she was still angry with the little Daoist and refused to open the door for him.

The little Daoist smiled helplessly; every time he made Susu unhappy, he would go down the mountain to buy her some sweet fruits, and she would be fine when he came back.

He took out his magic tool and planned to go to Tuoluo Village.

"Susu, I'm going to buy you some sweet fruits, I'll be back soon, don't be angry anymore."

"Hmph." Susu looked through the crack in the stone, watching the little Daoist leave.

Although she looked like she hadn't calmed down and didn't want to pay attention to him, the slightly raised corner of her mouth still betrayed her mood.

Just because mentioning the sweet fruits couldn't help but make Susu think of when they first met, it was exactly when she beat the little Daoist up. But he was not only not angry, but also shared sweet fruits with her.

"You don't have a name yet?"

"Demons don't have names."

"Then I'll give you one, okay?"

"Okay, what is it?"

"How about Bai Susu?"

"I am a red-scaled python, why the surname Bai?"

"Because your eyes are the clearest and most transparent, originally pure white. The two characters Bai Su are most suitable for you."

"Oh." Susu's expression at that moment was exactly the same as her expression now.

Just as she wanted to leave the stone door, a sound came from outside again.

"Susu, it's me, I'm back, open the door quickly."

"Little Daoist, you've learned to be bad." Susu went to press the mechanism to open the door; that mechanism was researched by the little Daoist.

She was smiling, as if waiting to see the little Daoist and teach him a lesson.

But her smile gradually disappeared the moment she opened the door.

Qijue Mountain, eighty miles away.

According to Xiaotian Quan's guidance, they stopped at a big river here.

On the river beach, a person was lying on the shore, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.

Sun Wukong flew down hurriedly to check the person's pulse. After confirming that the person was still alive, he used magic to save him.

"Ah!"

"Ah!!!"

The man saw Sun Wukong and was scared to death, wanting to break free.

"Demon, demon!"

Tang An looked at the river water, then looked at this survivor.

"Clunk!"

She hit him with a Golden Brick, knocking him out.

"Master?" Sun Wukong was stunned.

"Alas, saving strength, the force of the hit is just right, stunned but not hurting the brain." Tang An blew on her Golden Brick. "That river demon is inside, no running away. Who of you will go and save the people back?"

"Third Brother and I will go." Yang Jian and Nezha looked at each other, nodded, and jumped into the river water.

About a quarter of an hour later, Nezha rushed out of the water surface.

In each hand, he held one, both strong men. But they had been drained of a lot of blood and looked dying.

"Looks like they couldn't eat children, so they had to attack men?" Tang An sized up those mortals and asked. "How many more?"

"A dozen or so, alive."

"What about the dead ones?"

Nezha opened his mouth but shook his head again.

He knew the situation in the river demon's mansion, so it was better not to tell Tang An.

Not long after, Yang Jian also came out, also holding one in each hand.

"What about the demon?" Tang An only saw them saving people, not seeing the demon.

"The little river demons were all dealt with by Third Brother and me, but the river demon Susu spoke of was not seen." Yang Jian frowned slightly, feeling that this river demon was very cunning.

"Not seen?"

Tang An propped her arms and pondered, where did that river demon go?

Suddenly, she widened her eyes and stood up from the ground.

"Susu!"

"Quick!"

"Jiuyue, quick!"

At this moment, Tang An felt numb all over, and a very bad thought arose in the bottom of her heart.

Jiuyue didn't know why, but still let Tang An come up.

"Sister, are we going back to Qijue Mountain?"

Tang An took a deep breath, letting herself calm down quickly.

"Wukong, you follow me back to Qijue Mountain."

"Yang Jian, Nezha, you save the people back, then come and meet us."

"Okay." Yang Jian responded; with Sun Wukong following Tang An, he was also relieved.

Nezha looked at Yang Jian, and seeing Yang Jian didn't say anything, he also stayed behind to save people.

Qijue Mountain, Xishi Cave.

When Tang An rode Jiuyue over, there were many noisy sounds here.

It was people, many people.

They all looked like farm women, middle-aged men, and some old people.

They had all kinds of vegetable leaves, eggs, and so on in their hands, scattered everywhere in the cave.

"What are you doing?"

Tang An's bad premonition deepened.

She pushed through the crowd to go into the cave, but when she saw Susu and the little Daoist, she was stunned on the spot.

Susu was covered in rotten leaves, rotten egg liquid, and a blood hole exposed in her abdomen.

The little Daoist was holding her, his eyes dull, as if he had lost his soul.

"What happened?"

"What happened?" Tang An grabbed the little Daoist's collar. "I'm asking you! Speak!!!"

But the little Daoist just looked at Tang An numbly, and then looked at those people.

Tang An took a deep breath; she didn't dare to look at Susu.

"What are you doing?"

"Who did this?"

The first two sentences, she asked very lightly.

"Who!!!" But this sentence, Tang An shouted out, tears swirling in her eyes.

Those people looked at each other.

"Why do you sympathize with a demon?"

"She followed a monkey demon, definitely in cahoots with the demon."

"Looking at her, she must have been bewitched by the demon; she is also a poor person."

"Just a dead evil demon, why is she crying so hard? How did it become our fault?"

"Exactly, our family originally sacrificed Zhaodi, and we should have been safe and smooth. But look, this demon kidnapped Zhaodi, harming our sacrifice to fail, and our family has been living a miserable life."

Beside Tang An's ears, similar words kept ringing.

She turned to look at Susu, and the moment she lowered her head, she suddenly smiled. But at that same moment, tears fell.

It turns out that the prejudice in people's hearts is really a mountain.

And what can crush people under that mountain is exactly people's ignorance and stubbornness.

"Wukong, Wukong!"

Sun Wukong was scaring those people, and when he heard Tang An call him, he hurriedly came over.

"Master, how are you?"

"Underworld, Underworld." Tang An hurriedly grabbed Sun Wukong's arm; she knew that Susu had already died.

Now the only chance to save her was to go to the Underworld to fish for people. ===== CHAPTER 218 =====
