Chapter 41
Pingji Town is a town that is still a hundred miles away from Wuzhuang Temple.
Tang An saw that she was almost at Wuzhuang Temple, so she came to buy some supplies and go to a restaurant to have a meal to improve her life.
The four master and disciples walked along the street, and all the mortals who saw Sun Wukong's appearance fled in all directions, closing their doors and windows.
"That shouldn't be."
Tang An was very puzzled; these merchants fled for their lives and didn't even want their things; were they acting too stressed?
They came from the west, and there was more than one town they arrived at. It wasn't that there were no people who were afraid of Sun Wukong's monkey face elsewhere, but the stress response of the mortals in this town was definitely a bit problematic.
"There's a play, there's a play."
"Master? They all ran away, where is there still a play?" Sun Wukong was also big-hearted and didn't care at all whether mortals were afraid of him or not.
"What play, what play, there must be a demon in this town."
"Having a demon means that we can not only eliminate harm for the people but also solve a trial."
"Brushing through these wild monsters more, won't our eighty-one tribulations be gathered faster."
"Yes yes yes, Master is right, right." Sun Wukong scratched his ears, jumped out a few steps, and looked around.
"Master, Old Sun used Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze to look, there is no demon aura within a ten-mile radius." He scratched his ears anxiously, unable to understand. "Could it be that there is a big demon here?"
After all, no demon aura doesn't mean there is no demon. That demon might carry magic treasures that hide demon aura, or have some cultivation and big demons enlightened by Buddhism or Daoism.
For example, the Black Bear Spirit, he has Buddha nature, so no demon aura can be found on him.
Yang Jian and Nezha looked at each other, and then looked at Tang An.
"Let's find an inn to stay first and inquire about the situation."
"Okay." Tang An also agreed; after all, if she wanted to know if there were demons in the town, she needed to inquire more.
So the four master and disciples found an inn with good business, and in order not to startle the mortals and be able to inquire about the news, Tang An also bought a bamboo hat for Sun Wukong.
I don't know if others are happy to wear hats, but Sun Wukong likes to wear hats very much. Even if it was a bamboo hat, he was very happy.
After entering the inn, the four master and disciples opened four upper rooms and ordered a table of expensive wine and dishes in Tang An's room.
When the waiter came to serve the dishes, Tang An took the opportunity to inquire about the situation in the town from the waiter.
According to the waiter's explanation, it turned out that demons had started to make trouble in this town a few years ago. But no one knew what kind of demon it was.
In the past, people often went missing in the town, but starting this year, there were dozens of people missing and dead.
It is said that before those people died, they had more or less contacted or picked up red money bags.
Now the people in the town are afraid when they see red, and no one sells red money bags. Even when the bride gets married, they dare not wear happy red.
After roughly understanding these situations, Tang An threw some rewards and let the waiter go down.
"Come on, let's eat first." Tang An seemed to have guessed in her heart.
Yang Jian also saw that Tang An knew, and asked directly. "Could it be that you know that kind of demon?"
Tang An waved her hand and clamped a piece of beef into her mouth. "It's not a demon."
"Not a demon?" Nezha, Sun Wukong, and Yang Jian were all surprised.
They had seen all kinds of demons, and such evil deeds sounded like demon means. But Tang An was very certain that it was not a demon.
Tang An looked at their expressions and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Being too big also has the troubles and knowledge blind spots of being too big.
"You guys, it's just that your positions and combat power are too high. The little monsters we encounter today, if placed before the scripture seeking, would not be your turn to come forward in any case."
"This monster is like... um... Chu Renmei."
"Who is Chu Renmei?" They were even more confused.
Tang An cleared her throat, and the little classroom started.
"Chu Renmei, when I was a child, was considered a very powerful vengeful ghost, and also one of my childhood nightmares."
"But if you start from your level, I don't even know where to start."
Tang An bit her chopsticks in distress. "You all know the Black Bear Spirit that Nezha killed, right?"
The three disciples nodded seriously and answered, "Know."
"The demon general beside the Black Bear Spirit, the most inconspicuous little demon under the demon general, in terms of seniority, Chu Renmei would have to call him an ancestor."
"Now, do you understand?"
The three disciples suddenly realized that if they explained it that way, they would understand.
That kind of little demon, taking Nezha as an example, could be burned to death by throwing a spark, let alone lower-generation unknown monsters.
So it was normal for these few great gods not to understand those things.
"Master, do you know how to find that monster?" Sun Wukong was so smart that he reacted immediately after understanding.
"Know, let's go for a stroll after eating, pick up a red money bag, and it will come by itself."
Tang An had thought about playing like that before, but she didn't dare before.
Although they all played memes, saying that they threw it into the merit box after picking it up, letting it hard-clash with the Buddha. But memes are memes, she cherished her life so much.
But it's different now; now the vengeful ghost is just a little ghost not worth mentioning in front of her.
Picking up the money for the little ghost to borrow life, where does it need to throw any merit box, just throw it to these three disciples, and it can't clash with any of them.
After eating, it happened that the weather was hot and dark.
Every household in the town closed their doors and windows, and even the inn closed early.
Nezha dragged Tang An out, and the four master and disciples split into three paths, looking for the red money bags that bought life.
If that little ghost knew that the three killing gods of the Heavenly Court were so seriously dealing with it, I really don't know if it should cry or laugh.
About the time of an incense stick, the four master and disciples who split into three paths returned to the inn to gather.
Nezha, Yang Jian, and Sun Wukong each held a money bag in their hands.
Waiting beside them were also the underworld personnel that Sun Wukong found on the way to clean up this mess, Hei and Bai Wuchang.
Hei and Bai Wuchang: "Who understands, family members! It's easy to have a holiday, just came out of the Yama Hall and met the living Yama, and then they were pulled up by the living Yama to work!"
After they were caught, they saw Yang Jian and Nezha returning to the inn room one after another, and their eyes were black and black again.
One living Yama was already fatal enough, three living Yamas gathered together, today it couldn't be for them!
The two of them were terrified for a long time, almost scared to pee, but didn't dare to make a sound.
When they were suffering in their hearts and living like years, they saw three killing gods take out a red money bag.
Wow! At that time, Hei and Bai Wuchang's blood pressure soared in a straight line, and they almost couldn't help but break into curses.
It's outrageous!
Which little ghost hasn't heard of the names of these few, and actually bought life to their front!? Don't want to live anymore??
"Why are you two so nervous, it's not that you spent money to buy life." Tang An enlivened the atmosphere.
She wouldn't enliven it, but once she did, the sweat on Hei and Bai Wuchang's heads was dripping like water.
Even if they were given eight hundred guts, no, eighty thousand guts, they wouldn't dare to buy life from these three killing gods!
Did that little ghost who bought life suddenly think it couldn't open, and wanted to die in a fancy way? Or did it eat iron guts and copper juice, and actually play such a trick!
Not to mention Tang An and the others wanting to know who bought life, even they couldn't wait to see the little ghost who bought life, so they could knock out his brain flowers and see what was in his brain!
