Chapter 43 The Evil Dragon Raising the River
The sun has set, and only the remaining light shines on the three people as they move forward.
The three of them stopped at the first house. Ye Yunyang looked at the dilapidated house in front of him with pity in his heart. The house in front of him looked like mended clothes. The fence outside was made of various wooden boards.
The exterior of the house inside is also dilapidated and looks uninhabitable.
Ye Yunyang stood in front of the door of the fence, turned around and said to the people behind him: "I'm going to discuss with the owner of this house whether we can stay here tonight, and you two will wait here."
"Yes, Master." "I understand," Zhu Bajie and Sun Wukong replied.
Ye Yunyang stepped forward and stepped into the yard. He walked slowly and walked to the door of the house. He gently knocked on the wooden door with his fingers. "Is anyone there?" There was no response from the house. He
He repeated patiently: "Is anyone here?"
This time the wooden door was gently opened by the person inside. The person who opened the wooden door was an old woman in linen clothes with gray hair who looked to be in her fifties. The old woman looked Ye Yunyang up and down and asked: "I wonder if this elder is here?"
What’s going on with my family?”
"I am traveling with the two people outside, both of whom are going to the Western Heaven to learn Buddhist scriptures. I passed by here today and saw that it is getting late. I would like to stay here for a night. Is it possible?" Ye Yunyang said in detail what he was thinking.
, the tone was very sincere.
"It's not that I don't want to, it's just that there are some unspeakable secrets that cannot be revealed, so I can't let a few elders stay here." The old woman looked embarrassed, and finally chose not to let Ye Yunyang and the others stay here.
"It's better to go further down and find someone to live in. My house is really inconvenient," the old woman said.
"No problem, no problem, sorry to bother you." After saying this, the old woman closed the door and Ye Yunyang turned around and left.
When Sun Wukong saw Ye Yunyang coming out, he immediately raised his spirits and asked: "How about it? Can we stay in this family?"
Ye Yunyang shook his head in disappointment, and Sun Wukong wilted instantly.
However, the three people were not discouraged and continued to look for a home that could accommodate them. When they arrived at the second home, the result was still the same as the first home, they were rejected. Zhu Bajie complained: "This is the second home."
No one is willing to let us stay here, and there are not many families in this place. If this situation continues, we will have no choice but to sleep on the grass."
"Shut up, you idiot, don't say these irritating words."
"Hey, you have such a bad tone like a monkey...
Listening to the sound of the two people fighting, Ye Yunyang gradually walked into the third house. He was nervous, fearing that he would be rejected again this time. Ye Yunyang knocked on the door three times, and soon someone came and opened the door, "This elder
Is there something wrong?" Ye Yunyang looked at the honest and honest uncle in front of him and felt the hope of staying overnight. "I have a presumptuous request. I and two other people want to stay at your uncle's house. We have been rejected by the previous two families. I hope you can
I can agree." Ye Yunliang's tone can be called humble.
The uncle looked at Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie not far away, then looked up at the sky at this time, and said to Ye Yunyang: "Then you call them over, and they can stay at my house tonight."
"Yes, yes." Ye Yunyang agreed and quickly walked to Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, "Bajie Wukong, hurry up and get your luggage and go in. The owner of this house said that we can stay at his house."
With bright eyes, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie didn't waste a moment, and each carried a box in.
The group of people finally found a place to stay and were very happy. As soon as they stepped through the threshold and put down their luggage, the uncle said to Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Ye Yunyang: "Three guests are here for dinner."
Zhu Bajie was very enthusiastic about eating, "Come on, come on." Then everyone arrived at the dinner table.
"I wonder why the three of you passed by here?" the uncle asked while holding dishes.
Sun Wukong was the first to answer, "Go to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures and achieve enlightenment."
"Ah~ It turns out they are three elders! Then I will have to entertain them well."
Sun Wukong suddenly praised the uncle, "Uncle, you are really a kind person. Among these families, you are the only one who is willing to let us stay. The others are not willing, saying that they have something unspeakable and cannot tell them."
After he finished speaking, he took a steamed bun and put it in his mouth.
The uncle's expression suddenly became serious. He didn't say anything but lowered his head and just ate. "Uncle, if you really have something to hide, just say it. The three of us are very capable and we will definitely be able to solve your troubles." Ye Yunyang thought that at first he was so embarrassed.
The old lady wouldn't let them enter her house, so she just tried to bluff them with some unspeakable secret. Seeing the uncle's reaction, I thought something must have happened.
"Well, then I will tell you elders about the unspeakable secret." The uncle sighed and put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands.
"Far away from us, there is a place called Yingchou Stream. Below the Yingchou Stream is a deep pool. This deep pool is strange and unpredictable. There are no fish or shrimps in it. The water is salty. Sometimes it even rains.
Aim at that spot, and the reason for all this is that there lives a white dragon. The dragon is a sacred animal that we admire and respect. At the beginning, we all worshiped him. If we wanted chickens or ducks, we would offer them immediately without saying a word.
,
But we never imagined that it was an evil dragon."
"He has begun to be dissatisfied with chickens and ducks. When he came here once, he even kidnapped a young man from our place. The young man left and never came back. He has not come back yet. I'm afraid something unexpected has happened. People here don't
It's justifiable for me to let you live there. Firstly, it's a taboo, and secondly, I'm afraid of implicating you.
"No wonder you weren't afraid of me and the fool when we first came in. It turns out you have seen monsters that are scarier than us." Sun Wukong joked to the uncle.
"When we passed by Yingchou Stream today, the white dragon kidnapped a white horse. I'm afraid it's already in the belly of the white dragon." Ye Yunyang became angry when he thought of this, but the senior officials were afraid that he would be there.
On the way westward, the white horse that was specially given to him died after being tired for a short time after riding it. It was difficult not to arouse hatred.
"Ah? The elder actually had a white horse taken away?! Alas, I don't know when someone will be able to control the white dragon. Elder, just be patient." The uncle was slightly surprised, but more helpless.
"Hey hey hey hey." Sun Wukong scratched his cheek and made a monkey cry, "Uncle, don't worry, tomorrow I will go to Yingchou Stream to meet the white dragon and restrain him.
The uncle had some doubts about Sun Wukong's strength, "Elder, does he really have this ability? That white dragon is very strong and invulnerable. Elder, try to be careful."
"Uncle, don't worry, I have a sense of discretion."
The uncle nodded reluctantly, as if he still thought he could not defeat Bai Long, "Three elders, please rest first, the room has been prepared for you."
