BXBX NOVEL Chapter 25 I'm Going to Take a Bath
With a roar, the scarlet tiger peeled off its entire skin, and a bloody figure emerged from inside. Pointing at Sun Wukong and Tang Sanzang, he shouted, "Listen up! I am the Vanguard General, Scarlet Tiger, under the command of the Great King of Huangfeng Ridge. I am ordered to patrol the mountains and catch a few humans to accompany our king\'s drinks."
After speaking, the Scarlet Tiger General pointed at Tang Sanzang and said, "This Monk looks tender and delicious. Come with me, and I\'ll spare these disciples of yours and let them go."
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong immediately became furious.
Although he knew Tang Sanzang was incredibly fierce, he also had a reputation and pride to maintain! And here was someone daring enough to point at him and declare they wanted to eat the Monk.
This wasn\'t just slapping his face; it was violently whipping him to death!
Sun Wukong stepped forward and pointed at the Scarlet Tiger General, "You big red cat must never have died before, huh? Want to eat my master? Today, I\'ll catch you and talk about making soup!" Sun Wukong whipped out his Jingu Bang and swung it fiercely!
The Scarlet Tiger General clearly never expected this tiny monkey, not even reaching 1.3 meters, to be so fierce. A single strike sent him flying.
In midair, the Scarlet Tiger General tumbled and pulled out two scarlet long blades from under his ribs!
Bang!
As the Scarlet Tiger General landed, his eyes bloodshot, he stared at Sun Wukong, "Monkey, so you want to fight, huh? I\'m game!"
Sun Wukong spat and charged forward, swinging his staff.
The Scarlet Tiger General was ferocious, his blades swirling around, his combat strength exceptionally fierce, and surprisingly, Sun Wukong couldn\'t take him down in a few moves!
Just then, Zhu Ganglie rushed back upon hearing the commotion and roared, "Bro Monkey, I\'m here to lend you a hand!"
Zhu Ganglie swung his nine-toothed rake through the air and smashed it down.
The Scarlet Tiger General, already struggling to deal with Sun Wukong alone, saw another helper arriving and knew he was outmatched. He turned tail and ran.
Sun Wukong and Zhu Ganglie chased after him...
The three fought and ran at the same time, dust flying everywhere, blood shining in the sky, and explosions resounding one after another...
After a few rounds, the Scarlet Tiger General was clearly worn out, and seeing that he was no match, he roared, "I\'m going all out with you guys!"
The aura around the Scarlet Tiger General surged as if he was about to make a final stand.
Upon seeing this, Sun Wukong and Zhu Ganglie burst into laughter, "Little kitty, you think you\'re fit to fight to the death?"
It turned out that these two had not been using their full strength; they were just toying with him.
The Scarlet Tiger General snorted, put on the scarlet tiger skin, transformed into a fierce tiger, and roared, "I\'m going all out with you!"
However, the guy suddenly turned and bolted.
"Crap, this guy is getting away!" Sun Wukong quickly chased after him.
Zhu Ganglie took another route to flank him, and soon they had the Scarlet Tiger General cornered. No longer toying around, they struck hard, and in no time, they beat the scarlet tiger to death on the ground.
However, to their astonishment, the scarlet tiger deflated upon hitting the ground.
Zhu Ganglie lifted the tiger skin and cursed, "He\'s shed his skin like a cicada; the big cat ran away!"
Sun Wukong paused, slightly annoyed...
At that moment, high up in the mountains.
Tang Sanzang yawned and asked Bai Longma, "Little Bai, what do you think would happen to me if I got captured by monsters?"
Bai Longma laughed, "What else could they do? Strip your clothes, wash you clean, add some side dishes, and throw you directly into the pot to cook and eat."
Upon hearing the words "wash you clean," Tang Sanzang\'s eyes suddenly lit up with a gleam of excitement.
Just then, a bloody gust of wind blew, and Tang Sanzang slapped the horse\'s head, "Don\'t move, your master is going to take a bath first; you wait here."
The next moment, the wild wind swept through, lifting Tang Sanzang into the sky and heading deep into the forest mountains.
In the bloody gust, the triumphant laughter of Red Tiger came through:
"Little pony, I\'ll take your master first to accompany my drink, and I\'ll deal with you later! Hahaha..."
Bai Longma forced a laugh, then shook his long face and sat down on the ground, leisurely eating the grass and muttering, "Idiot!"
In the Yellow Wind Mountains, there was a huge cave called the Yellow Wind Cave.
A bloody gust of wind fell, and a man, clad in red and tall as two meters, carrying a bald Monk, descended.
"General Red Tiger, you\'ve returned from hunting so soon?" A little demon greeted.
Red Tiger snorted coldly, "I had bad luck today, encountering some tricky fellows, ruining my tiger skin. Fortunately, I captured their master. Get the hot water ready, after I report to the king, we shall feast on meat!"
Hearing this, a group of little demons cheered, and a rabbit demon already ran ahead, shouting, "Get the pot ready, fire up, prepare the meat!"
From afar, another small demon responded, "Received!"
Red Tiger carried Tang Sanzang through several corridors, finally arriving at a huge karst cave.
In the center of the cave, there was a tall throne, upon which a handsome man in a yellow robe was casually eating grapes and yawning.
"My king, I was ordered to patrol the mountains and encountered a few tricky Monks. After a skirmish, while they were not paying attention, I captured their master to accompany your drink!" Red Tiger reported loudly.
Upon hearing they captured a Monk, the Yellow Wind King raised his eyebrows and was about to ask a question, but suddenly remembered something. He calculated with his fingers and muttered, "The time hasn\'t come yet, it shouldn\'t be..."
Thus, Yellow Wind King glanced at Tang Sanzang\'s shiny bald head and couldn\'t help teasing, "Monk, seeing you so smooth and tender, I\'ll give you a choice: deep-fried, grilled, boiled, or steamed. Pick your way to die."
Though everyone could tell it was a tease, Tang Sanzang seriously scratched his bald head and said, "Boiled, please."
Yellow Wind King burst into laughter, then waved his hand, "Alright, let it be boiled. Red Tiger, drag him down and cook him up before bringing him back."
"Yes, my king!" Red Tiger excused himself.
Outside the karst cave, Red Tiger casually threw Tang Sanzang into the kitchen and asked, "Is the water boiling yet?"
The rabbit demon eagerly replied, "Lord Red Tiger, the water just heated up, it\'s not boiling yet, you might need to wait a bit longer."
Before Red Tiger could respond, a sound of water followed by a relieved sigh came...
"Ahh... that\'s comfortable!"
The demons turned to look and saw the bald man who had, at some point, stripped off his clothes and sat down in the pot himself!
He even casually took a carrot meant for garnish and started eating it...
The monsters were stunned at first but then laughed, "We\'ve never seen someone so proactive before."
The rabbit demon said, "Lord Red Tiger, the Monk you captured seems to be a fool?"
Red Tiger also laughed, "A fool is good, a fool is hassle-free. Take good care, don\'t waste this fine tender meat."
