#1396 - The First Pig in the Primordial World (Part 1)
Inside the Water Curtain Cave, a bonfire crackled to life.
The monkey looked at the gluttonous Golden Cicada and said, "Golden Cicada, I didn't lie to you, did I?"
The Golden Cicada ate as he spoke, "You didn't lie to me, you didn't lie to me."
"In these past few decades, Wukong, your cooking skills are much better than that chatterbox of the Flowing Sand River."
Qin Buyi then asked, "Golden Cicada, do you know where Gao Village is located?"
The Golden Cicada pondered for a moment, then said, "Gao Village? I seem to have heard of that place name... let me think about it carefully."
Qin Buyi didn't urge him, waiting for the Golden Cicada to continue thinking.
After a few breaths, the Golden Cicada suddenly said, "I remember now, I went to that place when I traveled through the Primordial World."
"That place is so small, if you hadn't mentioned it, benefactor, I would have forgotten about it."
"Speaking of which, would a figure like you also be unclear about the specific address of the Primordial World?"
Facing the Golden Cicada's doubts, Qin Buyi said, "Who said I must know everything about the Primordial World?"
The Golden Cicada thought for a moment and said, "That's true, existences like you are all high above, you certainly wouldn't waste your energy on this."
"Speaking of which, benefactor, are you planning to go to Gao Village? There's nothing fun there."
Qin Buyi smiled noncommittally and said, "Golden Cicada, have you ever eaten roast suckling pig?"
The Golden Cicada said, "I have."
Qin Buyi said, "Take me to Gao Village, and I'll show you what the number one pig in the Primordial World is like."
The Golden Cicada said, "The number one pig in the Primordial World? Can it be eaten?"
Qin Buyi said, "As long as you can bring yourself to eat it."
The Golden Cicada said, "Tch~ It's just a little pig, what's so hard to eat."
"I'll be responsible for killing the pig, and let Wukong cook it."
"Wukong, what do you think?"
The monkey smiled and didn't speak.
From Qin Buyi's words just now, he had already guessed that this number one pig in the Primordial World might not be so delicious.
After drinking their fill and tasting the dishes...
The next day, at the first light of dawn, Qin Buyi and the monkey followed behind the Golden Cicada, heading towards Gao Village.
It wasn't that Qin Buyi was anxious, but rather the Golden Cicada was.
The Golden Cicada was very curious about the number one pig in the Primordial World that Qin Buyi mentioned, and his mouth was almost watering.
As early as when they set off, the Golden Cicada had already thought about how to eat that number one pig in the Primordial World.
Steamed, braised in soy sauce, barbecued... a pig with multiple dishes!
At this moment, inside Gao Village, Marshal Tianpeng, who had been cultivating for hundreds of years and had begun to take on a human form, suddenly sneezed.
Then, he felt a chill run through his body...
"What's with this sense of crisis? Which bastard is trying to harm me?"
"Damn it! I'm already so miserable, how can there still be bastards thinking about me! It's really infuriating!"
Marshal Tianpeng muttered and cursed.
These years, Marshal Tianpeng's life had been very miserable.
This misery had a reference point, which was the days when he was the glorious Marshal of the Heavenly River Navy.
Compared to once commanding 100,000 Heavenly River Navy soldiers, although Li Jing was above him, Marshal Tianpeng's life was still quite good.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to run to the Guanghan Palace to flirt with the ladies every now and then...
Compared to most male immortals, Marshal Tianpeng was already considered a successful person.
As a result, after being thrown down during the Peach Banquet, he was reincarnated as a pig.
When he was first reincarnated as a pig, Marshal Tianpeng was stunned.
He had thought that his luck might not be good, but he never expected it to be so bad!
Of course, this couldn't be blamed on others, it was his own problem.
In his youth, Marshal Tianpeng was afraid of being eaten one day.
After hundreds of years of cultivation, he had gained a certain amount of self-protection.
"Forget it, forget it, I should change back into a pig first."
"Lest I be missed..." Marshal Tianpeng said in a low voice.
Soon, Marshal Tianpeng changed back to his original form and found a pig herd to mix into.
Qin Buyi and his party quickly arrived at Gao Village...
After descending upon Gao Village, Qin Buyi spread out his divine sense to observe the terrain here.
It was indeed as the Golden Cicada had said, very remote!
Remote as it was, this place still had a protagonist in the Journey to the West plan.
Because Qin Buyi had known for a long time that Marshal Tianpeng was reincarnated as a pig, his target group was very precise.
After searching for several pig herds, he successfully discovered Marshal Tianpeng!
Marshal Tianpeng's hiding might have fooled others.
But in Qin Buyi's eyes, who was proficient in transformation, it was far from enough!
Looking at Marshal Tianpeng, who was no different from ordinary pigs, Qin Buyi chuckled inwardly, "His sense of crisis is okay, not too bad."
Just then, the Golden Cicada said to Qin Buyi, "Benefactor, this is Gao Village."
"Where is the number one pig in the Primordial World that you mentioned?"
Qin Buyi pointed at the pig herd where Marshal Tianpeng was located and said, "The number one pig in the Primordial World that I mentioned is in that pig herd."
The Golden Cicada looked in the direction Qin Buyi pointed, looking left and right, but couldn't see anything special.
The Golden Cicada, feeling puzzled, said, "Benefactor, you're not teasing me again, are you? Those are all ordinary pigs without any intelligence, how could they be the number one pig in the Primordial World?"
Qin Buyi said, "Since ancient times, treasures are covered in dust and need someone with destiny to change them."
"This number one pig in the Primordial World is also like this, it also needs someone with destiny to appear, it depends on whether you are this destined person!"
Hearing Qin Buyi's explanation, the Golden Cicada no longer doubted anything.
In the Golden Cicada's heart, there was absolutely no need for a figure like Qin Buyi to lie to him about such a thing.
Thinking of the taste of the number one pig in the world, the Golden Cicada's eyes shone as he looked at the pig herd where Marshal Tianpeng was located.
With a flash of his figure, the Golden Cicada directly encircled the pig herd where Marshal Tianpeng was located.
"Hehe~! What destined person or not, we'll just encircle them all, and eat one a day! It won't be long before we can find this famous pig," said the Golden Cicada.
Qin Buyi was somewhat speechless at the Golden Cicada's actions.
It was quite a Zen-like sentence, how did it become like this when it came to the Golden Cicada?
Qin Buyi now wanted to ask, was the steady Golden Cicada in history led astray because of his appearance?
The monkey came to the Golden Cicada's side and looked at the encircled pig herd with great curiosity.
He really wanted to know where exactly the famous pig his master was talking about was!
Unfortunately, his transformation methods were not as superb as Qin Buyi's in every aspect, and the monkey looked for a long time, but couldn't find anything special...
On the other hand, Marshal Tianpeng, hidden in the pig herd, was sweating profusely!
He recognized these two people, or rather, these three people!
As the second disciple of the Western Religion, the Golden Cicada had seen Marshal Tianpeng at the Peach Banquet.
The monkey had also seen Marshal Tianpeng when he was the弼马温 (Bi Ma Wen, a low-ranking official in charge of horses).
Not to mention Qin Buyi, with the title of Haotian's incarnation, Marshal Tianpeng was very familiar with him!
It was precisely because he was too familiar that Marshal Tianpeng dared not speak out.
The main thing here was to take into account Qin Buyi's inner thoughts...
He was thrown down and reincarnated as a pig, and now that Qin Buyi had appeared, who knew what the other party was thinking!
"My Heavenly Emperor, please say something, tell me what you're thinking."
"You're making me panic!" Marshal Tianpeng thought to himself.
The current Marshal Tianpeng really wanted to transform into a human form, pay homage to Qin Buyi, and let him return to the Heavenly Court.
But Qin Buyi didn't say anything, making it impossible for people to know what he was thinking, which was a bit... worrying!
If he rashly changed back to his human form and made Qin Buyi unhappy, wouldn't it be even worse!
Sighing in his heart, Marshal Tianpeng decided to continue to disguise himself and wait until Qin Buyi took the initiative to speak.
