The outcome of the battle with the Bull Demon King was beyond everyone's expectations.
They were neither defeated by the Bull Demon King nor defeated the final boss in Westward Journey. Instead, they were frightened and angered by the old cow who sacrificed his banana fan and fanned him an unknown distance in one go.
, blowing from Wuyue Mountain to Pansi Cave.
Pansi Cave is an important location in Journey to the West.
Five hundred years ago, it was called Water Curtain Cave, and it was the cave of Monkey King, the Monkey King. It was abandoned after Monkey King was reincarnated.
In another time and space, Fairy Zixia occupied the abandoned Shuilian Cave, renamed it Pansi Cave, named herself Pansi Great Immortal, and taught two apprentices, Chun Sansanniang and Bai Jingjing.
Or there is another time and space: Shuiliandong has never been abandoned, but has been developed into a tourist attraction... In the story of "Journey to the West", there are originally several completely parallel worlds.
The world of the cruel demon monkey Monkey King, the world of the Supreme Treasure and Zixia Fairy, the world of the Buddhist monk Sun Wukong... Standing in front of Pansi Cave, Cheng Peng recalled the movies he had watched more than once in his boyhood, and recalled those
Infected by the laughter and sadness in the story, I couldn't help but feel a little lost in the past.
Sun Wukong has never understood what love is, so he is unscrupulous. Whether he is the Monkey King or the Supreme Treasure, he has no moral integrity at all. He will fall out whenever he wants, change his mind whenever he wants, and basically never change his mind.
Thinking of others is blindly selfish.
As a result, by the time he saw the tears in his heart and understood what love was, it was already too late.
"There was once a sincere love in front of me, but I didn't cherish it. I regretted it when I lost it. The most painful thing in the world is this. If God could give me another chance, I would love that love again.
Girls say three words: I love you. If I have to add a time limit to this love, I hope it is... ten thousand years!"
He still remembers the scene when he watched this movie in the small video room of the school, the second time the Supreme Treasure said these words, the look of the girls crying after putting on the golden hoop, and the long two episodes played.
After finishing it, I felt lost in the bright sunshine outside the video hall.
So he stayed where he was, looking at the three words "Pansi Cave" and wandering around.
"Let's go!" Xu Tu slapped him on the shoulder and woke him up. "The Supreme Treasure and Zixia Fairy are destined to have no ending - or do you go to get scriptures for him? Anyway, just wear the golden hoop..."
"That's a good idea."
"I'm just joking..."
"I'm not." Cheng Peng nodded and followed the cheering teammates into the Pansi Cave. "I think I'm actually more suitable than the Supreme Treasure - Learning from the West, Eighty-one Difficulties, Fighting All the Way... You don't
Do you think this is exactly what is designed for players?”
"Are you serious?" Xu Tu frowned and said, "What you said makes sense, but have you ever thought about what it means to wear a golden hoop and accompany Tang Monk to the West to obtain scriptures?"
"From now on, I will cut off all the distractions of love in the world and take refuge in my Buddha wholeheartedly." Cheng Peng said, "Although I don't like Buddhism, I actually do quite a lot of research on Buddhism..."
"The problem isn't the latter part!"
"I know. Online dating will probably be impossible from now on... But in fact, it doesn't make any difference. I'm not Li Wei who is obsessed with the second dimension to the point of obsession. If there is a suitable good girl, of course I should consider it in reality.
Let’s talk about marriage.”
Xu Tu shook his head and said nothing.
When things happen, no one can see through them; when things happen, no one can see through them.
This is true for everyone, without exception.
The two walked into Pansi Cave and slowly moved forward in the maze-like cave filled with dry vines.
"How's your injury?"
"The recovery is quite fast. It will take about half an hour to fully restore the combat effectiveness. However, the ice and snow gun is seriously damaged and we have to find a way to repair it."
"What happened to that move before?"
"It's just an idea, but I found it seems to be very useful..."
"Actually, you could consider dropping javelins directly from the sky one by one. I think that would be a very powerful attack."
"This is a good idea, I will improve it next time."
The two of them walked around and chatted, and before they knew it, they had reached the depths of Pansi Cave. The other players didn't know where they were.
"It seems like I'm trapped in a maze..." Xu Tu frowned slightly and took out a compass.
The magnetic needle on the compass is like a top, spinning continuously.
"What to do now?" Cheng Peng asked, "Do you need me to make a way out of these walls, pillars, etc.?"
"Forget it, rest." Xu Tu shook his head, found a random place to sit down, and took out some semi-finished products of the mechanism technique to make, "Anyway, finding the Moonlight Treasure Box is a matter of the Supreme Treasure, and it has nothing to do with us."
Cheng Peng also sat down and opened the system panel to see how the task was completed.
Go to the Ax Gang, 5%; Repair the Ax Gang, 15%; The Ax Gang is so powerful, 15%; Defeat or befriend Spring Sansanniang, 10%; Defeat or befriend Bai Jingjing, 10%; Avoid the Bull Demon King from killing the Supreme Treasure,
Bai Jingjing or Chun Sanniang, 20%; finding Pansi Cave, 10%.
So far, they have completed eight plot missions and achieved 85% plot completion.
All that's left is to find the Moonlight Treasure Box and send the "Supreme Treasure" back five hundred years ago to meet Fairy Zixia.
Cheng Peng really couldn't help much with these two matters.
He thought about it and realized that he really had nothing to do for the time being, so he simply started meditating to heal his injuries.
After making some progress in the Secret of Immortality, his ability to heal wounds with his true energy was greatly improved. At this moment, when he started to use his energy, a pattern in the shape of a human body suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. Then the pattern suddenly collapsed and turned into countless fragments. He needed to let him
Come and assemble it piece by piece.
This is the mini game of "Exercise and Healing": intellectual puzzle.
Of course, he can also stop playing games, leave the healing process to the computer, and take time to go to the forum. But that will greatly reduce the efficiency of healing. He just needs to come during normal times. At this moment, he is in Pansi Cave, and God knows what spiders are doing.
When will the spirit, white bone spirit, or even the Bull Demon King spring out to start fighting? The sooner you recover, the more power you will have to protect yourself. Of course, you can't delay it.
Time passed quickly, and soon more than half an hour passed.
Cheng Peng whistled in cheers and quickly put the last fragment into the pattern. The originally dark humanoid pattern suddenly glowed, like a dusty mirror being wiped clean.
As soon as his eyes lit up, he had returned to the Pansi Cave scene from the mini-game.
Next to Xu Tu were two small wooden wooden figures, fighting with fists and feet. Their movements were quite regular, as if they were masters.
But this senior machine engineer is already making a third machine man.
"Atubo, what are you doing?"
"Xiao Zi and her guild are planning to put on a puppet show for the children, and I'm helping them make puppets."
"Puppet show...are you going to let the puppets perform fighting performances for children? I don't think it's appropriate."
"Chinese Kung Fu, Japanese people like it very much. In the past, Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan... are more popular in Japan than in China."
"Japan? Your daughter's guild is established in Japan?"
"Well, the president of the guild is my college classmate, and he stayed in Japan after getting married... The main members of the guild are also Japanese little girls. Anyway, Xiaozi can speak some Japanese, plus the real-time translation of black technology
, it’s very convenient to communicate.”
Cheng Peng looked at Xu Tu's calm expression and didn't ask any further questions.
The maze became silent again, with only the rustle of the carving knife moving on the wood and the gentle clanking of machinery.
After a while, Xu Tu did not raise his head and whispered: "You must be very curious, right?"
Cheng Peng was stunned for a moment and then understood what he was referring to.
"I'm just curious. I've never seen you have such a bad relationship with anyone before." He answered honestly.
"Alas..." Xu Tu sighed deeply, put down the mechanism he was making, and looked up at the ceiling of the maze, "Actually, I am very angry for no reason..."
"Oh?" Cheng Peng looked at Xu Tu curiously - this sentence was really beyond his expectation!
"It started almost twenty years ago..."
In the early 1990s, after graduating from high school, Xu Tu followed the then-popular trend of "going to college abroad" and went to Japan to study engineering.
To be honest, it is not easy for a Chinese to go to school in Japan. Although his family is relatively wealthy, he does not have to go out to work for living expenses.
Fortunately, he met some very good friends in college.
He is a fellow countryman and went to study abroad a year earlier than him. Chang Xi is a very quiet girl. Besides attending class, she likes to read. She can sit in the library all day long and learn about Kawabata Yasunari from Tagore and Dharma.
When I saw Xiaoping's collected works, she basically just enjoyed the process of reading and wrote down the parts that she found interesting. She was not picky about the type of books.
Being around Chang Xi always makes people feel very peaceful, and their mood relaxes for no reason.
Completely different from Chang Xi is his senior sister Kasugano Miyako, who is two years ahead of him. Kasugano senior is obviously not in good health and is said to have a terminal illness that is destined to prevent her from living a long life, but she is always full of energy, as if she wants to condense her life into a short period of time.
It was as if she had unleashed herself to the fullest in the past twenty or thirty years. In the two years they had known each other, she had formed several societies, and all of them had achieved good results.
In addition to Chang Xi, who is a data clerk, and Xu Tu, who is a consultant and part-time chore, there are many members in this circle. Among them, the ones who have the best relationship with Xu Tu are the second-generation immigrants and very sociable Chinese Americans Chao Minghe.
Furukawa comes from a wealthy businessman family and is innately sensitive to finance and numbers.
"I feel like this past incident looks a bit familiar..." Cheng Peng muttered in a low voice.
"We have a junior student who later wrote a novel - but the novel distorted everyone's personalities and identities quite a lot." Xu Tu smiled, his eyes almost narrowed into crescent moons, "What gods are you aliens from?
Ah, superpowers... none of them exist. In fact, in that small group that likes to cause trouble, there is only a weak and weak girl with some radio skills, plus a group of boring people who follow her and make noises because they have nothing to do."
"What happened next?" Cheng Peng asked.
Just as Xu Tu was about to speak, the entire maze suddenly shook.
A strong wind stirred up in the maze, causing sand and rocks to fly for a while. The dry vines were shattered and turned into countless smoke and dust.
Amidst the smoke and sand, the strange voice of a French girl could be heard faintly.
