Chapter 494 The Monkey King Returns to the World! [Seeking Monthly Votes]

"What? My good brother Wen Taigong is dead?"

Lu Buteng stood up suddenly, with concern in his voice, but he couldn't suppress the smile on his face at all.

Hou Cheng nodded and introduced the details discovered by the scouts:

"The rumors we spread last time were heard by Yuan Shu. He was afraid that Sun Jian would join forces with us to attack Runan, so he ordered Sun Jian to attack Jiangxia. Before setting off, he accidentally disclosed the information to Huang Zu."

Damn it, this trick of borrowing a knife to kill someone is very smooth, but Sun Wentai should be the most capable of Yuan Shu's men, right?

Needless to say, Skeleton King's ability to dig his own grave is high. Others tend to gain more territory and have more talents, but in the Three Kingdoms, he is getting narrower and narrower.

When you hear rumors about your generals, shouldn't you show your kindness as soon as possible and try to build relationships?

Regardless of whether his subordinates were rebellious or not, he showed his kindness first without wasting anything, but in the end, this guy went to a dead end.

Lu Bu asked:

"Like in the original work, was he also shot?"

"Yes, he was ambushed and shot by Huang Zu's men. Even his body was snatched away by Huang Zu. It is still hanging by the river... Fortunately, it was cold. If it had been summer, maggots would have probably grown."

At the beginning of autumn, Sun Jian was ordered to attack Wancheng, but unfortunately when he saw Lu Bu, he wisely retreated.

Lu Bu was not idle either. He presented swords and food to Sun Bo Fu in various ways.

Now that the good eldest brother Sun Jian has passed away, the fruits of goodwill sown in Sun Bofu have finally come to be harvested.

Lu Bu walked a few steps in the hall and quickly made arrangements:

"Ling Ming, you lead five thousand men and horses to garrison near Jiangxia to intimidate Huang Zu; Youruo, you go to condolences to Bo Fu's nephew for me. If Sun Jian's body has not been recovered, use lighters and other things to express his condolences to Huang Zu." I negotiated with my ancestors and exchanged my body for burial."

This alone was not enough, Lu Bu said to Xu Huang:

"Then, in my name, I wrote a letter to scold Liu Biao for his lax rule, Yuan Shu for harming my brother, and Huang Zu for disrespecting the dead. I will also suffer the same fate in the future."

Hou Cheng didn't react for a while:

"Isn't that what people should do? If it were us, if someone came over, we would still kill him and hang the body up to vent our anger."

Lu Bu glared at himself, the former captain of the personal guard:

"All the efforts made on the dead are actually done for the living. If you were Sun Ce, and now your father has just died, and I not only care about you, but also help you seek justice, what would you think?"

Hou Cheng scratched his head:

"I lost my biological father when I was two years old. If you try to be nice to me, I will only think that you are thinking about my mother."

Lu Bu: "..."

Why is your brain circuit so different from others?

But Wu Guotai should be in his early thirties now... Tsk, he is really an age where his charm is still there!

Xun Chen explained to Hou Cheng:

"Everything Marquis Wen did was for Sun Ce and Sun Jian's old tribe. If we can capture it, it will save a lot of trouble...General, do you want to bring back all Sun Ce's family members?"

Lu Bu thought for a while and thought this was a solution:

"Tell Sun Ce that if he can trust me, he can entrust his mother, younger brother, younger sister, and others to me. As for Sun Ce himself, he can make achievements in Jiangdong, or prepare soldiers and horses to avenge his hatred."

In the original work, after Sun Jian's death, Sun Ce followed Zhu Zhi's plan and exchanged the national jade seal for Sun Jian's 3,000 troops, led his army into Jiangdong, and began to establish a foundation.

Now that the imperial seal is gone, I don't know how Sun Ce can borrow troops.

Pang De rolled his eyes and asked with some uncertainty:

"General, he won't come to you to borrow troops, right?"

Eh?

It is really possible. If this is the case, then Sun Ce will really become the pioneer of the imperial court.

Lu Bu reminded:

"If Sun Ce really comes to us to borrow troops, then let him lead the army to attack Runan first, drive Yuan Shu to Xuzhou, force the Skeleton King to fight Tao Qian of Xuzhou, and by the way establish a relationship with Zhang Chao of Yangzhou."

Sun Ce, who is bent on revenge, is like a sword. As long as he uses it well, he can gain something whether he attacks Runan to the east or Jingzhou to the south.

As for whether Sun Ce will be too big to lose his tail, there is no need to worry about this.

Zhou Yu, who helped Sun Ce make his fortune, was currently suppressing bandits deep in the Taihang Mountains with Sui Gu. As for Er Zhang, he did not flee to Jiangdong for refuge because Cao Cao massacred the city.

In addition, the forces in Jiangdong are also complicated. Liu Yao, Zhang Chao, Lu Kang, Xu Gong... none of these local snakes are easy to deal with. They are all hard-core and need to be nibbled away.

Judging from Sun Ce's foundation, he might be killed by these Jiangdong native emperors.

After Lu Bu's instructions, everyone got busy and implemented all these arrangements as soon as possible. If Sun Jian's family members could be brought over, wouldn't it be a good thing?

Lu Bu had nothing to do and drove to the field hospital in Wancheng to have a look.

Although Zhang Zhongjing has been transferred to Chang'an, the hospital previously established in Wancheng has been retained. There are many patients in the hospital, several doctors in white coats are busy treating, and there are medical staff everywhere carrying disinfectant. Spraying, it feels a bit like a modern hospital.

Seeing Lu Bu coming over, the Zhang clan member who served as the dean took the initiative to report on the work:

"To inform Marquis Wen, since the establishment of the hospital, we have treated thousands of patients. Modern medicine has excellent effects on treating trauma. We are still studying those books."

Upon hearing this number, Lu Bu became interested:

"Before setting up a hospital, how long would it take for you to treat thousands of patients?"

"It will take at least two years. Now that there is a hospital, everyone can perform their duties, and the efficiency has been greatly improved, allowing us to see more diseases."

Traditional Chinese medicine is a cumulative process. The more patients you see, the more experience you have.

Now through the hospital, they have treated more patients in just two months than in the past two years. Coupled with the blessing of many modern medical concepts, medical skills have been rising steadily.

Lu Bu praised:

"Cultivation of more medical talents, I will send you to Chang'an to further your studies, or serve as a professor at the medical school, to cultivate more medical talents for us big men."

The dean was overjoyed by these words and quickly knelt down on one knee to salute:

"Dare to die!"

In the real world, at ten o'clock in the evening, Li Yu and Mu Guiying finished playing games and took a walk around the B&B. Just as he was about to go upstairs to take a shower and rest, he saw Zi Shou walking out of the warehouse carrying a huge tray.

"Your Majesty Zishou, what are you serving?"

Mu Guiying smelled the aroma of meat and rushed over.

Zi Shou said:

"Empress Yunxiao made some delicacies and asked me to bring them to my husband to taste... She said that the bodies of the three demons in Gongzhou in Journey to the West were obtained by Zhang Tianshi and sent to us for the empress to cook."

Mu Guiying knew these three goblins:

"Aren't they just tiger demons, bull demons and bear demons... what a sweet death!"

"This is the soy sauce beef made by Lady Yunxiao. She also took out all the bones of the tiger demon. She is making tiger bone medicinal wine for you. I hope you won't dislike it."

Use the bones of a tiger demon to make medicinal wine?

Li Yu felt like having a nosebleed when he thought about this material.

Mu Guiying smiled and picked up a piece of beef tendon and took a bite, with surprise in her eyes:

"It's delicious, more tender than beef in the real world..."

After sending the beef to the kitchen, Zishou went back. It was the New Year's Day soon, and he planned to ask the gods of Jiejiao to make some fireworks and lively with the people.

Li Yu cut a plate of beef, opened a bottle of beer, and sat in the restaurant with Mu Guiying to eat and drink.

"Sister Yunxiao was afraid that you were weak, so she took the initiative to make medicinal wine for you. Are you touched?"

Li Yu shook his head:

"It has no effect if you take it over. It's a bit wasteful. If you have this time, you might as well do something else."

"Come on, I think your mouth is harder to suppress than an AK47... Husband, when you have Sister Yunxiao, will you dislike me?"

"No, why are you so worried about gains and losses again?"

"I'm afraid that Sister Zhou will beat me up when she comes back, punish me to work, and deny me food... Don't laugh, I'm really a little scared."

Li Yu chewed the beef and took a delicious bite of the big Wusu:

"You have a throwing knife, why are you afraid of her?"

"Tch, how can I have the courage... Aren't you afraid of Sister Zhou?"

Li frowned and was about to say that he was not afraid when he found that the hand holding the wine glass was trembling slightly... Well, Dawusu really lived up to its reputation, and he became drunk after one sip.

The two of them ate and drank for a while, then went upstairs to rest.

At the same time, during Journey to the West, Liu Boqin cooked a pot full of meat for Xuanzang. However, when he heard that Xuanzang was a vegetarian, he was immediately embarrassed:

"Our family has been eating meat for generations. Even if we occasionally eat delicacies, they are always fried in meat and oil. What should we do without vegetarian food?"

Xuanzang clasped his hands and said:

"There is no need to worry, Taibao. The monk has his own kitchen utensils."

After saying that, Xuanzang took out a set of cassette stoves and a small stainless steel pot from the white horse's bag, as well as ingredients such as dried noodles, dehydrated vegetables, dried bean tendons, and condiments such as sesame oil and salt.

Liu Boqin was stunned:

"What are these things that the elder brought?"

"The poor monk is a vegetarian and has a lot of inconvenience along the way, so an elder gave him this set of cooking utensils and some food to try not to cause trouble to the people along the way."

After saying that, he quickly cooked himself a bowl of vegetable plain noodles. Worried that it would be tasteless, he also specially added some pickles stir-fried by Li Yu.

After a bowl of noodles, Xuanzang took a walk around the yard and found that Liu Boqin had raised many animals.

But unlike the pets of wealthy families, Liu Boqin kept these things purely to have food rations in emergencies.

After walking around in a circle, the Liu family's dinner was also over. Liu Boqin's mother kept talking about the fact that tomorrow was the anniversary of Liu's father's death, and wanted to ask Xuanzang to help chant sutras for salvation, and Xuanzang agreed wholeheartedly.

The next day, after all kinds of memorial paper items were prepared, Xuanzang recited several scriptures to help Liu Boqin's father wash away his sins and achieve salvation.

The underworld even chose a wealthy family in Hu Zhongyuan for him to be reincarnated, which made Liu's father so happy that he told him in a dream that night.

On the morning of the third day, the family talked happily about the incident. Liu Boqin's mother even washed the pot again and again, rinsed it again, kneaded it with dough and kneaded a lot of dry cakes, and gave them to Xuanzang to eat on the way.

Liu Boqin also offered a lot of money to thank Xuanzang, but Xuanzang refused:

"It's enough for the Taibao to send me over this mountain. The money is of no use to me, so I won't accept it."

It was not difficult for Liu Boqin to go over the mountains and ridges. He agreed with a wave of his hand.

After breakfast, the two led their horses and left.

With the Zhenshan Taibao around, he didn't encounter any wolves, tigers or leopards along the way, and it was hard to even hear the chirping of insects and birds. Liu Boqin was like a god in Shuangcha Ridge.

As I was walking, a big mountain appeared in front of me.

Liu Boqin said:

"This mountain is the boundary mountain between Tang Dynasty and Tatar. It was also called Five Elements Mountain in ancient times. The other side of the mountain is the territory of Tatar. I can't control the ferocious beasts there, so I can only send them here."

Xuanzang knew that he would see Sun Wukong soon.

He looked at Liu Boqin and asked:

"What do you mean you can't suppress it? Will they attack you?"

"Yes, not only will they not run away when they see me, they will also take the initiative to attack, so I usually don't cross the line."

Xuanzang reminded:

"The ferocious beasts in Shuangcha Ridge will stay away when they see you. It will cost a lot to catch one. Since you are not afraid of the ferocious beasts in Tatar, you can go hunting in the land over there."

Liu Boqin didn't expect that a monk would actually care about other people's territory:

"This is not our territory in the Tang Dynasty. It is unreasonable to rush there."

If Tang Seng in the original work heard this, he would have praised Liu Boqin, but now Tang Seng has been led astray by everyone in the B&B and has completely become a nationalist:

"What the Taibao said is wrong. Everything the sun shines on is the king's land. Our Tang Dynasty has a prosperous country, and we cannot stop our ambition to make progress just because of the national borders. If you have time, you can draw a map of the route here and send it to Hezhou Wei, the imperial court has its own reward."

The mountains blocked the army from marching westward. Now that there is a Shuangcha Ridge route, we can go west and have a look. When the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty pass, the national boundary can be pushed westward.

Li Shimin's great ambition is to unify Nanzhan Province. As a sworn brother, he must do his best to help him realize this wish.

Liu Boqin asked with great interest:

"If I come to my door rashly, will the gentlemen of Hezhou Guard punish me?"

"No, if they punish you, just find a temple nearby, kneel in the main hall and cry loudly, and someone will show up to help you."

"Okay, then I will go to Hezhou Guard early tomorrow morning and report the matter to the government!"

If the national border moves westward, Liu Boqin's hunting territory will be larger and there will be more prey.

Now you can receive rewards for meritorious service and increase your income at the same time. This is simply a great thing that comes to your doorstep.

Saying goodbye to Liu Boqin, Xuanzang led the white horse and continued westward. As soon as he approached Liangjie Mountain, he heard someone calling Master vaguely at the foot of the mountain.

Finally, I was going to see the Monkey King... Xuanzang straightened his cassock and walked to the foot of the mountain. He saw the unkempt monkey that had been pressed down at the foot of the mountain for five hundred years:

"So long, Wukong!"

Sun Wukong shook off the leaves and weeds from his head, raised his head and smiled:

"Master asked me to wait... There was a rain here this morning. I was worried that it would be difficult for you to walk, so I asked the water god who brought rain to move away. Is the road not wet?"

"No, it was dry all the way and it was a good walk."

After greetings, Xuanzang raised his head and looked up the mountain:

"Where is the note my master posted?"

"We are close to the top of the mountain. You can only see it when you climb up... When the curse is revealed, remember to stay away. As soon as I come out, the mountain will collapse."

"Okay, my master, I'll go up here and let you out!"

After saying that, Xuanzang looked around:

"Where is the mountain god here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the mountain god who had been on duty here appeared:

"Report to the holy monk, the little god is here."

Xuanzang handed over the reins of the white horse:

"You lead the horse to the west. Wukong will jump out later. Don't hurt my mount."

"Easy to say, easy to say, little god, let's go now."

After the mountain god led the horse away, Xuanzang also walked up the mountain one step at a time. When he was approaching the top of the mountain, he finally saw a note written by Tathagata Buddha himself.

Without this note, Five Elements Mountain would not be able to trap the Monkey King.

Xuanzang clasped his hands together and recited the six-character Buddhist mantra on it, and the note immediately floated away.

Wukong at the foot of the mountain shouted loudly:

"Master, stay away, my old grandson is coming out!"

Xuanzang agreed and walked west along the ridge for two or three miles. Then he took out his mobile phone and pressed the shooting button. The Five Elements Mountain in front of him began to shake, and then opened numerous gaps.

These gaps became wider and wider, until there was a loud bang and the whole mountain collapsed completely. A golden light shot out from the bottom of the mountain. After hovering in the air for several times, it landed steadily in front of Xuanzang:

"Thank you Master, please accept my disciple's bow!"

Compared with the Xuanzang who cries easily in the original work, Wukong likes the one in front of him so much. He is decisive in doing things and never drags his feet.

Xuanzang smiled and said:

"No need to be polite, you should know what you are going to do along the way, right?"

"Clearly, Uncle Ksitigarbha and Master Zhang have said this several times. My ears are almost getting calloused... Master, when my disciple fights monsters, you won't stop crying and crying anymore, will you?"

"As long as the monsters harm people, you can kill them to your heart's content... By the way, whenever you go to a place, ask the mountain god about the land. If there are monsters, they will be eradicated without tolerance."

"Easy to say, easy to say, I, Old Sun, like to hang out with people like you!"

One person and one monkey came down from the mountain, and the mountain god quickly sent the white horse:

"The mount is safe and sound and there were no injuries."

Xuanzang thanked him and said:

"You are the mountain god of Liangjie Mountain. Now that Liangjie Mountain is no longer here, just go directly to Chang'an. When you get to Nuwa Temple, someone will arrange your place."

"Thank you, holy monk!"

After the mountain god left, Xuanzang took his backpack, unzipped it, took out a small purple gold crown with phoenix wings and handed it to Wukong:

"This is made by Nuwa, how about you try it."

Wukong took it with both hands and was extremely surprised:

"It's exactly the same as the crown I wore when I was making trouble in the Heavenly Palace!"

He held the crown in his hands, bowed three times to the sky, thanked Nuwa, and then put it on his head.

As soon as it was tied, the dust-repellent beads on the crown took effect, cleaning all the dirt on Wukong's body. His monkey hair was refreshing and shiny, more elegant than using Rejoice.

"Oh, this treasure has such a wonderful effect?"

Wukong was surprised, and the four sea dragon kings appeared in the air:

"Congratulations to the Great Sage for escaping from the sea of ​​suffering. We brothers have put together a set of armor, please accept it."

After that, they took out the chain mail golden armor and lotus silk cloud shoes, which made Wukong excited:

"Thank you very much!"

He hurriedly put on the armor that made trouble in the Heavenly Palace again, and took out the golden hoop hidden in his ear and held it in his hand, his eyes shining with golden light, majestic and awe-inspiring.

The Monkey King Sun Wukong, who fought against heaven and earth, reappeared in the world!
