Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything

Chapter 420 - 10)



The Abortion Spring is indeed a counterpart to the Child-Mother River, absolutely indispensable for the Women's Kingdom.

Unfortunately, the Abortion Spring was occupied by a Ruyi True Immortal, and furthermore, the price he charged was exorbitantly high. Ordinary people seeking an abortion could hardly afford it.

Plus, given the exceptional Cultivation Level of the Ruyi True Immortal, there had been several attempts over the years to eliminate him, all of which ended in failure.

Therefore, for the entire populace of the Women's Kingdom, the spring water from the Abortion Spring was exceedingly rare.

However, since Holy Monk Xuanzang had come from the Great Tang and had mistakenly drunk the water of the Child-Mother River, shouldn't the Women's Kingdom offer hospitality and help him with his predicament?

Although the Abortion Spring's water was sold at a high price, for Her Majesty the Queen, it was not difficult to purchase some with silver coins.

"Uh, if that's the case, then please trouble yourself!" Hearing the female officer's words, Jiang Liu pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

Although as far as Jiang Liu was concerned, with his own status, it should not be difficult to get some water from the Ruyi True Immortal.

But if the Women's Kingdom was willing to take care of it, that was even better.

Who was the Ruyi True Immortal? The brother of Demon King Ox. If he himself went to ask for the spring water, Demon King Ox would inevitably learn of his and Sun Wukong's pregnancy.

And if Demon King Ox knew, Red Boy would be aware as well.

After all, wasn't he the Ming Sect Master? If the news spread, it would not look good for him, would it?

Therefore, it was best if someone from the Women's Kingdom could buy it on his behalf.

"Eh? Sir, do you need anything else?" Having said all that needed to be said, Jiang Liu suddenly noticed that the female officer was still standing before him without any intention of leaving. He looked at her with a hint of surprise and asked.

"No, there's nothing else. Holy Monk, please take care to rest well!"

Hearing Jiang Liu's words as if being dismissed, the female officer secretly stamped her foot, feeling as if the Holy Monk was rushing her out after using her help.

This was like the saying, 'After someone puts on their trousers, they don't acknowledge you anymore.'

"Master, I think that female officer fancies you. If you just beckon her with a finger, you could enjoy a merry night tonight, couldn't you?" After the female officer left, Zhu Bajie, full of envy, spoke to Jiang Liu.

"You pig-brain, all you think about day in and day out are these things!" Zhu Bajie's words made Jiang Liu glare at him in annoyance.

"Elder Brother, Master is right!" Following Jiang Liu's rebuke, Sha Wujing also chimed in to assert his presence.

He prided himself on being Master's number one follower, but recently, it wasn't just Xiaobai competing for favor—was Junior Brother Sha competing with him too?

No, this kind of bad influence must be curbed!

With a thought, Zhu Bajie's gaze fell on Sha Wujing, and he said irritably, "Junior Brother Sha, can you not repeat that line every time? XXX, XX is right!"

"Oh, then, Elder Brother, what you just said was wrong!" Hearing Zhu Bajie's words, Sha Wujing didn't argue but thought for a moment and then spoke, switching to a different saying.

"I, Old Pig, am wrong? Tell me, where did I, Old Pig, go wrong just now?" Zhu Bajie looked at Sha Wujing in confusion, not understanding the point of his statement.

"Elder Brother, where you went wrong is that it isn't only the female officer who's interested. I believe that if Master is willing to beckon with his finger, perhaps the entire Women's Kingdom would be willing to spend a merry night with him! Yes, that's the case!"

Sha Wujing nodded earnestly with his simple and honest demeanor, presenting a completely different opinion.

"Huh? Junior Brother Sha, you're not wrong there, that's quite insightful!" Upon hearing Sha Wujing's words, Zhu Bajie couldn't argue, instead smiling and saying.

In his eyes brimming with longing, Zhu Bajie said, "It's a pity that only Master could encounter such a situation. If I, Old Pig, could experience such a thing, where just a beckon of my finger would bring many willing to spend delightful nights with me, I would die content!"

Seeing the yearning look in Zhu Bajie's eyes, Jiang Liu silently shook his head and chose to ignore him.

Scolding him? There was no point. If Zhu Bajie could change this aspect of himself, he wouldn't be Zhu Bajie.

Still, Jiang Liu was surprised that upon arriving at the Royal Palace of the Women's Kingdom, the King of Women's Kingdom had shown no signs of wanting to meet him. This was unexpected.

In the TV dramas of his former life, didn't the King of Women's Kingdom fall madly in love with Tang Monk? Then why was she so indifferent toward him?

Although he had Princess Gaoyang in his heart now and wished not to get entangled in other romantic affairs, it did not mean he was willing to be treated coldly by the King of Women's Kingdom.

Moreover, what puzzled him even more was that while everyone in the Women's Kingdom was extremely enthusiastic about him, why was it the complete opposite with the King?

If other nationals seemed indifferent to him, that was hardly surprising. The notable exception was the King of Women's Kingdom, who exhibited a warmer attitude towards him.

After some thought, Jiang Liu shook his head, deciding not to dwell on it too much.

Everything would wait until his meeting with the King of Women's Kingdom the next day.

Besides, since Ruyi True Immortal was selling water, it should be safe for the King of Women's Kingdom to make the purchase on his behalf.

After all, he had located the Abortion Spring, and there were still eight days left, weren't there?

Meanwhile, in the queen's chamber of Women's Kingdom, the King sat intently reading a book without a title on its cover, but it detailed many events inside.

These were the pieces of information that agents from Women's Kingdom had gathered from Great Tang over the past two years.

The King of Women's Kingdom flipped through the book from the beginning.

Jiang Liu, male, was found as an infant in a floating wooden basin by Jinshan Temple's abbot Faming, who then adopted him. Named Jiang Liu for drifting along the river, he lived at the temple.

Before the age of 15, he served as a novice monk at Jinshan Temple, taking care of the temple's modest meals...

This book contained detailed information about Jiang Liu, some results of earnest investigation, and some mere descriptions of him.

For instance, it mentioned the mystery of Jiang Liu's origins at the age of 15, his life at Jinshan Temple, the state of the temple, and that he and Princess Gaoyang had already met in secret before the Incense Offering Ceremony…

Later, during the Incense Offering Ceremony, Jiang Liu lit twelve incense scars. Furthermore, there was the battle at Foutu Mountain where Jiang Liu and Princess Gaoyang mysteriously vanished, having seemingly retired to live a reclusive life of divine marital bliss.

Of course, it also covered how Princess Gaoyang was poisoned with Corrupting Spirit Poison and to save her, Jiang Liu knelt before the statue of Tathagata beseeching the Buddha to save her as she lay unconscious in his arms.

Then, the narrative moved on to Jiang Liu setting out on his Journey to the West...

While the details of his Journey to the West were unclear, envoys along the way, like those from Treasure Elephant Country and Black Chicken Country, had also kept records of Jiang Liu.

Despite the limitations of mortal efforts, the King of Women's Kingdom had managed to compile extensive information on Jiang Liu to the best of her abilities.

All this information about Jiang Liu was almost like a book she had authored, which the King often read in her leisure time.

Any new intelligence would be added by her hand, making the book increasingly thick over time.

The King of Women's Kingdom didn't quite understand her own fascination; she felt her knowledge of Jiang Liu stemmed solely from these reports and tales.

Though the information was only textual, the more she knew, the clearer and more vivid Jiang Liu's image grew in her mind.

Today, he had suddenly appeared in Women's Kingdom, and she had not slept well through the night, feeling quite disheveled.

That's why she dared not meet him and instead hid in her chamber, pulling out a book nearly worn from frequent perusal to read once again.

"Your Majesty, you summoned me!" Just as the King of Women's Kingdom was quietly leafing through the book, carefully reading its contents, the female officer who had arranged Jiang Liu's party's stay in the Eastern Hall arrived at her command.

"Hmm, have you settled Holy Monk Xuanzang and his companions properly?" the King asked, closing the book and looking up.

"They have been settled!" the female officer nodded in confirmation.

"Did you see Holy Monk Xuanzang? What is he like?" The King asked hesitantly, following up with another question.

She felt she already knew Xuanzang quite well from myriad sources of information, but the King still felt nervous about meeting the real, living person.

"The Holy Monk? He is very handsome, and also very humble and courteous. Being with him feels very comfortable!" replied the female officer after a moment's thought, addressing the King's inquiry.

Of course, she would have been more than happy if the Holy Monk hadn't hurried her away and let her stay a while longer.

"Is that so!"

Hearing the officer's description, the King of Women's Kingdom nodded, finding it matched her own impression of Imperial Brother.

"By the way, Your Majesty!"

At that moment, the female officer suddenly remembered an important matter and said, "Holy Monk Xuanzang and his companions have inadvertently drunk water from the Child-Mother River and have become pregnant. So, they inquired about the Abortion Spring, and I have already promised on your behalf to purchase the water from the Abortion Spring for them!"
