Outside the quicksand river.

In front of the wooden house built by Yang Jian himself, Yang Jian was dressed like a villager, carrying an axe on his back, holding a bow and arrow and prey in his hands, with a black Chinese pastoral dog lying beside him.

The man who came outside the door was full of vigor and vitality. He was wearing black armor and a crown on his head, just like Lu Bu's Tai Sui subordinate god Yin Jiao.

Yin Jiao came to the wooden house. Behind him was the vast and boundless quicksand river, with the wind blowing, as if he was at the seaside.

But this place is a little strange. Except for Yang Jian's wooden house, the entire river bank for hundreds of miles is covered with uninhabited mountains and wilderness.

After he appeared, Xiaotian Dog stood up and bared its teeth at him.

Yin Jiao laughed and said, "Howling Sky Dog, I am a real person, please don't bite me."

Yang Jian smiled and said, "Xiaotian, prepare some tea. I'll go light the fire and cook for my brother to come and welcome him."

Xiaotian Dog transformed into a tall and thin man with a small mustache and a hunched body, and went to prepare tea.

Yin Jiao sat down on the stone table in front of the door, took a sip of tea, and then looked at Yang Jian who was fiddling with his prey.

He laughed and said, "Erlang is in such a good mood. Even facing such a powerful enemy, he still has the mood to mess with his prey."

Yang Jian said, "Brother, you are joking. I have no enemies."

Yin Jiao said, "Aren't you here to deal with Shachen? Doesn't that make him your enemy?"

Yang Jian was roasting a rabbit, then a chicken, and cleaning a wild boar leg.

He said seriously, "Brother, you are joking. I am kind to others and never make enemies. General Juanlian is a demoted general from the Heavenly Court and has done no evil here. I just want to exchange some advice with him."

Yin Jiao smiled and shook his head. Yang Jian was like that. He was very serious when he was serious.

but.

He didn't really believe what Yang Jian said. If he really wanted to spar with Sha Chen, would he need to borrow the Fantian Seal from his master?

and.

He had heard that more than a month ago, Yang Jian had a brief fight with Sha Chen. Although they had not had a real head-on collision, it could still be considered a fight.

Yang Jian also wanted to break into other people's caves. To say that this was not making enemies was probably just what Yang Jian said.

soon.

Yang Jian brought game to the table, along with some wild vegetables and his collection of fine wine. He heated up the wine and invited Yin Jiao to dine.

Roaring Sky Dog transformed into a pastoral dog again, crawling at Yang Jian's feet.

Yin Jiao said, "I didn't expect that Junior Brother has such a good skill. It seems that he is living a very comfortable life in Guanjiangkou. No wonder he is unwilling to go to heaven to receive the seal."

Yang Jian said, "There is intrigue and deception in heaven, and I, Yang, disdain to get involved."

Yin Jiao said: "Auntie is in trouble. I am afraid that Junior Brother needs to accumulate merits. If he does not go to heaven, it will not work."

Yang Jian was silent for a moment, then said: "This time, it is the greatest achievement."

Yin Jiao was stunned for a moment.

A trace of shock flashed in his eyes. He turned around, looked at the Liusha River, and was silent for a moment.

He nodded secretly, "No wonder, he was indeed ordered by the Jade Emperor to come here to force Shachen out of the water. What did the Jade Emperor promise him?"

Yin Jiao's eyes rolled and he asked, "Junior brother, has the Jade Emperor promised you anything?"

Yang Jian took a sip of wine, hesitated for a moment, and then told me, "So that you know, Senior Brother, the Jade Emperor wants me to force Shachen out of the Flowing Sand River, or even throw him into the river, leaving him in dire straits, in exchange for his promise to release my mother after three hundred years."

Yin Jiao sighed and said, "Do you believe it?"

Yang Jian's body trembled, and he took another sip of wine, which surprisingly tasted very bitter.

He believed it.

He had to believe it because it was the Jade Emperor's words and he had no choice but to believe it.

Yin Jiao asked, "More than two hundred years ago, the Jade Emperor asked you to deal with Sun Wukong. He also promised you something, didn't he? Did he keep his promise?"

Yang Jian remembered that more than two hundred years ago, after Sun Wukong caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace, he came down to earth as a demon and called himself the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. The Jade Emperor promised him that he would release his mother after a hundred years if he could capture Sun Wukong.

He did it and took down Sun Wukong.

but.

More than two hundred years have passed since then, and the hundred-year period has long passed, but the Jade Emperor never mentions it.

Every time he went to see the Jade Emperor and brought up this matter, he was turned away by the Jade Emperor.

But every time, when the Jade Emperor had something he couldn't handle and wanted him to go, he refused several times. In the end, he couldn't bear the Jade Emperor's promise and agreed.

This is the person who has been caught with a weak point but is helpless.

Yang Jian hopes that one day he can release his mother. Even though he knows that the Jade Emperor may be playing a trick on him, he will try his best to fight for it.

At the very least, he could see his mother more often.

You know, a long time ago, he didn't even have the qualifications to see his mother. It was only because of his many merits that he was qualified to meet her.

But even so, the Jade Emperor gave them few opportunities to meet as mother and son.

That is, more than two hundred years ago, he defeated Sun Wukong and they met a few times, that's all.

Yang Jian also didn't believe that the Jade Emperor would really keep his promise this time, but he had no choice but to believe it.

Even if the chances are slim, he will do it.

Yin Jiao said, "Junior brother, Sha Chen has ascended from a True Immortal to a Daluo Jinxian in just two hundred years. He's even as good as me. What do you think of his future?"

Before coming, Yin Jiao learned about sandstorms.

In particular, when Yang Jian sent a message via spirit bird a month ago asking to borrow the Fantian Seal, he also specifically told him about Shachen's situation.

When they were trying to snatch the Golden Cicada before, Yang Jian had noticed that Sha Chen's cultivation had reached the high level of the Golden Immortal.
