Chapter 9: With this team configuration, the Heavenly Court should be the one looking for us to move reinforcements
"Here." Tang An held up a bag of sugar cubes wrapped in oil paper.
Kids like candy. Although it wasn't as delicious as modern candy, it was at least sweet.
"Good Nezha, you're the best, can you go find me a mount?"
Nezha turned his head away. "No."
Look, he's angry again.
"Fine then." Tang An didn't coax him to go find one again; the key was that she was afraid of Nezha's aesthetic, and he'd end up getting some weird thing again.
Hey~ why is he even angrier?
"Why seek a mount? Sit on Old Sun's Somersault Cloud, and Old Sun will take you there in one somersault." Wukong came over to offer a treasure; in his eyes, going to the Western Heaven was just a matter of somersaulting there.
Tang An sat on the stool, looking deflated.
"You guys don't know, are your mounts restricted on the Western journey?"
Restricted is right; mainly because at their speed, the eighty-one tribulations wouldn't even have started before they cleared the level, so there would be nothing to play.
Wukong thought about it too. "Then shouldn't we just buy a horse?"
"Right!" Tang An was already a Diamond Indestructible Body, so she didn't have to worry about riding a horse rubbing her legs or butt.
"Let's go." Saying go, Tang An took the lead out the door.
However, before her foot could step out, the back of her neck was grabbed by Nezha and pulled back.
"What about these things?"
"Things?" Tang An looked back, and sure enough, the things she bought were all still there. "No, shouldn't you gods have some space magic treasures?"
"For example, a Universe Bag? And those storage rings in cultivation novels?"
"Don't you have any?"
Wukong and Nezha shook their heads.
!!!!
The silence in this room was deafening.
So the money was spent in vain?
What could be more painful than spending a lot of money, being happy for three seconds, and then having to abandon the things you bought?
Isn't this pure waste!
Tang An seemed to be holding back a breath, huffing and puffing as she looked at the distance outside the door.
At this scene, there should be a narration:
"At this moment, Tang An, who wanted to proceed to fetch scriptures, deeply realized one thing! Their magic treasures were still too few!"
"An evil plan called 'Rob, Rob, Rob on the Western Journey' was born in her mind."
Tang An, full of fighting spirit, prepared the following action plan for fetching scriptures.
She divided the things she bought into four large bags.
Nezha and Wukong were remodeled by her into Sha Wujing. One carried two bags with the Golden Cudgel, and the other carried two bags with the Fire-Tipped Spear.
Whoever carried whose things couldn't get angry.
Li Jing, who was silently watching Nezha in the sky, fell into deep thought at this moment.
"Is this his son Nezha?"
"Is this really that Great God of the Three Altars of the Sea!?"
"Is this really that God of Slaughter who used him as a pagoda-holder and stared at the pagoda in his hand every day???"
The Destined One, truly worthy of being the Destined One.
It's just that Li Jing didn't know that the Destined One was also staring at the pagoda in his hand.
That day, evening.
Tang An rode a horse, Wukong and Nezha walked, each carrying things, and came to a farmhouse courtyard.
Tang An remembered this farmhouse; it seemed to be the home of the child who fed Wukong peaches, and then they encountered robbers. At the same time, the White Dragon Horse ate Tang Sanzang's horse.
Tang An looked at the horse and then at Wukong; this could be brushed as two tribulations!
"Wukong, let's go. Let's ask for lodging."
Although it looked very old and broken, in order to brush the dungeon, she'd treat it as a nostalgic homestay found on a business trip!
Sun Wukong had long been staring at this small courtyard; it seemed that from far away, he had seen this family.
"Master, Master~" Wukong excitedly put down the things and jumped over to lead the horse for Tang An. "Master, I know this old man; when I saw him before, he was still a little shepherd boy."
The former little shepherd boy was now old and frail, only living at home with a little grandson.
Watching the old man pull the child to recognize Wukong, Tang An couldn't help but think of her childhood.
It turns out that no matter which world it is, there's no shortage of left-behind children and left-behind elderly.
"Here, for you."
Nezha suddenly leaned over and awkwardly stuffed a candy into Tang An's hand.
Tang An was a bit surprised, looking down at the candy in her hand, smiling sweeter than the candy.
The arrogant Nezha Third Prince also had a side that was awkward and cared about people.
"Wukong, Nezha, get ready for a meeting~"
In the past, Tang An didn't like the word "meeting." But after coming here, the atmosphere of the meeting was completely different from when she was working before.
With a Great Sage who provided emotional value at any time, and a Nezha who was arrogant but had extremely strong execution.
The word "meeting" in their Journey to the West team had almost become a commendatory term.
"You guys listen to me. Nezha, you hide the horse over there first. Then when there's movement here, we'll deal with this side first, don't worry about the horse."
"After the horse is lost, this matter will be handed over to you, Nezha."
"We'll brush one dungeon as two, and after brushing, we'll have passed three tribulations."
Yes, the Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze Beast one also counts as one tribulation. Reporting for review, Guanyin had already approved it.
Nezha was confused, looking a bit reluctant. "Why hand it to me?"
"Because you're really good at pulling dragon tendons."
Hearing "pulling dragon tendons," Nezha's eyes lit up.
"Fine, leave it to me."
Look, how did that saying go?
If you don't know how to manage a team, you can only work until you die.
Tang An was now a woman who had thoroughly read the entire Child Psychology Manual; she was simply terrifyingly strong!
She was determined to lead this team!
Night, under the starry sky, on the roof of a mud house.
Tang An lay on the roof, looking at the stars, not knowing what she was thinking.
Beside her lay Sun Wukong and Nezha, not knowing what they were thinking either.
"You guys say, is there still hope for the mount I've been thinking about?"
Nezha: "No hope."
Tang An sat up. "I just want a fox mount, is it that hard?"
Nezha also sat up. "Hard or not, you know you want a nine-tailed fox, right?"
"A nine-tailed fox! Where am I going to find a nine-tailed fox!" Nezha was on the verge of going crazy, mainly because he had been looking for a few days and hadn't even found a fox hair.
He went to Qingqiu, but Qingqiu closed its mountain gate as if it had received news in advance, not letting anyone in at all.
"Tsk, why so excited? Maybe we'll pick one up on the road tomorrow."
Nezha rolled his eyes at her and continued lying back on the roof.
"Are you saying the robbers and Ao Lie will really come?"
"Of course, I'm the Destined One." Tang An lay back down too.
Nezha turned to look at Tang An. "Why did you know in advance that those people in heaven were framing the Great Sage?"
"Because I'm the Destined One." Tang An felt that this sentence was really useful; it could explain anything.
"But don't you feel very aggrieved? Why should we take the blame for them?" Nezha's personality wasn't one that could stand being aggrieved.
"It's fine, get a handle on them, so we can go back and shake people when we meet big demons later."
"Big demons?" Nezha turned to look at the sleeping Sun Wukong. "He was called a Demon King before, I am the Great God of the Three Altars, and Second Brother is the Judicial God."
"What big demon can't we handle? And we have to go to heaven to move reinforcements?"
Tang An sat up with a "thump." "Right!"
With this team configuration, where do they need to go back to heaven to shake people? It should be the Heavenly Court coming to their team to move reinforcements!
"No, can't take this cowardly anger." Tang An thought for a moment. "Wait, after the scripture fetching is over, we'll settle accounts with them one by one, turning all the fake accounts into real ones!"
"Really?" Nezha's eyes were faintly excited, as if he had already thought of the grand scene of him, Sun Wukong, and Yang Jian overturning the Heavenly Court.
Tang An shook in front of Nezha's forehead. "Is there someone missing in your mind? Me? Me."
"You~" Nezha looked her over with disdain. "With your little physique, forget it."
"Hey! My temper!" Tang An rolled up her sleeves, about to pinch Nezha's face.
It was also at this moment that Sun Wukong suddenly sat up from the roof.
"They're here!" ===== CHAPTER 10 =====
