NOVEL WEB Chapter 49 Ordering Dishes
Sha Wujing replied, "Second Senior Brother, no need to say more. I can tell that you know the method of summoning gods. With your skills and status, even if the mountain gods and local deities have no regard for us, they should appear to pay their respects.
Now you've screamed your throat raw, and they still haven't shown up. The answer is obvious. Either they are dead, they have been captured and their freedom restricted, or they have received messages and are ignoring us.
So, whether you yell or I yell, it's useless.
You should stop pulling on me. If I were to yell, I couldn't even make a sound, and I'd inevitably displease our master.
If you end up in the pot, I won't be much better off."
Zhu Ganglie was utterly baffled. Indeed, Sha Wujing's mind was the most cunning among them all!
As Zhu Ganglie frantically blinked, Tang Sanzang stepped forward and said, "Shall I give it a try?"
Zhu Ganglie and Sha Wujing were startled, "Master, you know how to summon gods?"
Tang Sanzang twisted his neck and said, "Isn't it just shouting a few times? I may not be good at other things, but I do have a strong voice."
After speaking, Tang Sanzang took a deep breath. The air within dozens of miles surged like a storm and then was sucked into his mouth! His chest slowly rose...
Seeing this, Zhu Ganglie and Sha Wujing immediately covered their ears!
The next moment...
"Local deity!"
Boom...
The entire Golden Helmet Mountain trembled violently with this roar. A sound wave blasted forward, shattering large trees and scattering rocks and dirt as a trench extended toward the distance!
"Mountain god!"
Another loud shout, this one even louder than the first, spread out from Tang Sanzang in all directions, lifting layers off the ground like a violent storm!
Golden Helmet Mountain shuddered, and the demons inside Golden Helmet Cave covered their ears, wailing, "His voice is too loud!"
"Great King, save us!"
In no time, many little demons fell, screaming in agony.
Although the Great Bull King was not injured by the vibrations, he realized that this bald monk's voice was getting louder each time. If he continued to shout, the mountain would literally explode!
Before the Great Bull King could think of a countermeasure, he heard Tang Sanzang inhaling again, this time even more fiercely, clearly preparing for an even more ferocious roar.
The Great Bull King wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, thinking, "This madman, he's going to roar us to death!"
"Come out!"
Another thunderous shout made the earth crack, rocks crumble, and massive trees turn to ash...
Many demons inside the Golden Helmet Cave couldn't bear it any longer and died, blood spraying from their mouths!
Seeing Tang Sanzang about to shout again...
The Great Bull King clenched his teeth, "Activate the Mountain Protection Array to the maximum!"
"Great King, if we activate it to the maximum, we can no longer hide," transmitted a little black bull.
The Great Bull King said, "We can't worry about that now. If we don't activate it, he'll blow up the mountain, and we'll still be exposed. The result is the same either way, activate the array!"
The next moment, a beam of blue light shot into the sky, and then the light flowed down, enveloping the entire mountaintop.
Tang Sanzang's roar collided with the azure light, stirring ripples...
However, it was ultimately blocked.
But Tang Sanzang wasn't angry at all, instead, he was extremely excited!
Because he saw that within the formation, a cave entrance that looked like a huge bull's head was revealed, with six big characters written above it—"Golden Helmet Mountain, Golden Helmet Cave!"
Zhu Ganglie also excitedly jumped up, pointing ahead and shouting, "Master, Master! Master! Look! Look! The cave, the cave!"
The White Dragon Horse approached and said, "Master, it seems that what you summoned were not the mountain god and the local deity..."
Tang Sanzang chuckled, "At this moment, are the mountain god and the local deity really that important? They have a smell of soil and aren't even edible. Wujing, grab the tools, Wufan follow up, Little White, let's go!"
As he walked, Tang Sanzang laughed like a fool, chuckling, "Wufan, in the future when you encounter problems, don't always think about praying to the gods. Remember, you have to rely on yourself. A loud voice can summon anything!"
Zhu Ganglie, having dodged a bullet, didn't care whether what was said was right or wrong; he just nodded and agreed, "Yes, yes, yes, Master is right."
"King, the bald one is coming!" Little Black Bull shouted excitedly.
King Rhino wiped the sweat from his forehead while his brain rapidly processed strategies.
In the end, King Rhino shouted from inside, "Tang Sanzang, stop right there!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Sanzang's eyes immediately started to shine, "There really are living creatures here!"
Sha Wujing said, "Master, can we order the dishes now?"
King Rhino quickly shouted, "Sha Wujing, go stand over there! Tang Sanzang, we don't cross paths with your waters, why come and stir trouble with us?"
Tang Sanzang hesitated; he really seemed to have no reason to exterminate them and then eat them.
Zhu Ganglie stepped forward and said, "You demons and monsters have killed countless. We are here to subdue demons and monsters, to save the common people from fire and water."
"Get lost! Although we eat meat, we eat wild animals from the mountains, we have never eaten people nor harmed them. How can you say we've killed countless?" King Rhino yelled.
Zhu Ganglie was taken aback; he didn't understand the other party's background and naturally was not rash in slapping labels.
For a moment, Tang Sanzang, Sha Wujing, Zhu Ganglie, and the others all stopped in their tracks. It's one thing to slay a malevolent demon, which is certainly justifiable.
But to strike down a benevolent demon, that seems somewhat unreasonable.
Especially for Tang Sanzang, in his eyes, demons, humans, ghosts, immortals, divine spirits, they were all the same; there were no distinctions of good and evil. They were all just trying to survive under the watch of Heaven.
As long as this guy did not harm other creatures, he was essentially a good person.
So, for a moment, Tang Sanzang actually found it difficult to make his move.
Still, Tang Sanzang was stubborn and said, "Just because you say you're a benevolent demon, that's supposed to make it true? I don't believe it; all of you come out and let me taste...cough… see for myself. If you truly are benevolent, I won't eat you. If not, well…"
This statement made a bunch of demons inside the cave feel quite awkward. This line used to be what they said, and now the script had been stolen; it was truly uncomfortable.
Little Black Bull whispered, "Is this really a monk? Why does he seem fiercer than us. King, should we go out or not?"
King Rhino grunted, "Why go out? If he can't see us, he won't be so obsessed, at most a bit tempted.
If he really sees us, just your tendons laid out there, he'd scratch his head raw trying to find a reason to stew you!"
Little Black Bull quickly shrank its neck back and muttered, "The King's world is too complicated; a small demon's world is simpler... Don't get it, just don't get it."
After thinking, King Rhino replied, "Tang Sanzang, the Technique of Observing Qi isn't some difficult skill to learn. If I were evil, this forest would be filled with Resentment Energy and evil atmosphere. But look at this forest, it's peaceful and serene. How could I possibly be a bad demon?"
