In the Journey to the West, mountain gods and land gods should be the most basic fairy level. But don't underestimate these little fairies. Some of them are very background, such as the landlords of Flame Mountain. This landlord is unusual. He once said, "I used to be a Taoist priest, guarding the kitchen in Dai Li Palace. When I was scolded by the old man for getting lost, I fell into this world and came to the land of volcanoes. " It turns out that he has a background and the support of the emperor. Estimate his own strength is extraordinary.
Earth gods are also good at psychological work. The Monkey King adjusted the octagonal fan three times and came out to show the Monkey King the way. His reasons for helping the Monkey King are: "First, turn off the fire and let Master move on;" The second is to put out the fire forever and protect the life here; The third is to let me go back to heaven and the old gentleman.
In other words, it is possible for this landlord to return to the old gentleman in Taishang, and such a landlord is rare in the original work. Most of the land of the mountain gods is divided and guarded in their own "one acre and three points". One more question. Mountain gods and land gods are mostly weak in magic. Sometimes they have no background or are not valued by God. In order to survive, they can only work for monsters and obey their orders. Even so, they still live like beggars. However, the landlords met by the Monkey King finally had a good life, because the Monkey King helped them beat the monster away.
