Journey to the West: The Golden Crow Sage

Chapter 543 Ghosts and Gods' Calculations (Two in One)

"Niu Tau Ma Mian, yesterday you two brothers lost to us for three days. From today onwards, you two will have to take two rounds for our brother for three days. Don't try to play tricks, or we two will go to Cui Pan, he is an old man The worst thing is to see others renege on their debts!" ​​A ghost with a pale complexion and a tall hat said to the two tauren and horse-headed men in front of him, and beside him was a man in black The black-faced ghosts and gods in black hats, these four people are obviously in the underworld, who specialize in seducing souls, hunting down ghosts with black and white impermanence and bull-headed horse-faced.

This is at the gate of the City of Death, a wide official road in front of the gate leads to an invisible place, all the people coming and going on this official road are dull-faced ghosts, and there are also many ghost messengers hanging on their waists , These ghost messengers yell and yell, and urge the group of ghosts to hurry up from time to time, but anyone who is dissatisfied and wants to resist, it is a slap in the face, no matter how stubborn he is in the world, he has to be honest in this underworld real.

The two brothers, Niutou and Mamian, glanced at each other, and the Niutou said in a naive voice: "Black and white are impermanent, we two brothers recognize it! Isn't it worth three days? Why bother with Cui Juan, I am willing to bet and admit defeat, you guys go quickly! "

In the underworld, the most respected person is Yama of the Ten Halls, and under the Yama of the Ten Halls, the judges are respected, even the old men of the underworld like Black and White Wuchang and Niu Tau Ma Mian must obey the orders of the judges.Among these judges, Judge Cui is the most special one. He can't help but rank first among all the judges. The status is not inferior to any one of the ten halls of Yama.

The most important thing is that this Cui Juan is famous for being ruthless and upright. Otherwise, it would not be his turn to be in charge of that treasure. The cases he has resolved have always been clear and clear, and no one has made mistakes. , so he has great prestige among the ghosts and gods in this underworld.

The two brothers Niu Tau Ma Lian are abusive gamblers. They usually gamble with those little ghosts and ghosts who have just entered the underworld. Well, there are two good-looking ones.

"Just accept your account, then we brothers will go back to rest!" Bai Wuchang smiled, turned around and walked in with Hei Wuchang. In the past, he and the bull-headed horse-faced two people were divided into two shifts for one day each. This won three One day, but if you can rest for six days, there are endless ghosts in the three realms. If you can rest for one more day, you will be more comfortable for one more day.

"Brother Niu, we really did three days of rotation for them, isn't that exhausting us both?" Ma Mian asked with a look of displeasure when he saw the people leaving.

Niutou said angrily: "Otherwise, if they sue Cui Pan, the two of us will go to the [-]th floor of hell for a few days. I don't want to go down to those crying ghosts and howling wolves!"

The [-]th floor of hell is full of sinister demons and goblins. They have to suffer thousands of tortures to eliminate the sins and karma they committed during their lifetime. It is full of wailing and grievances of prisoners being tortured at twelve hours a day. Even if it is the righteous god of the underworld, he doesn't want to stay there for too long.

"Brother Niu, why don't we go find the one-horned ghost king!" Ma Mian's eyeballs rolled around, and he said wishfully: "Why don't we go find the one-horned ghost king and gamble a few more times. It’s fun, if you win, let him come up to take turns for us, if you lose, it’s nothing more than helping him see the tongue-pulling hell.”

Take a few bets!
When Niutou heard it, his eyes lit up, yes, let's play a few games first, if the one-horned ghost king loses, his two brothers won't have to work so hard.

"Big brother!"

Just as Niutou was about to agree, he suddenly heard Ma Mian screaming, his eyes widened, and he pointed to Huangquan Road, his eyes were full of fear and fear, he followed the finger and looked over, as if he was not scared. sit on the floor.

On the gloomy sky of the underworld in the distance, two grandchildren in golden armor were fighting fiercely with each other, and the aftermath of the frightening mana was scattered, and the ghosts on the Huangquan Road were shaken to some extent. , those who survived by luck fled in panic, and there was a sound of ghosts crying and howling in front of the dead city, even if the ghost messengers mixed in it all ran away with their heads in their arms, and they didn't care about those innocent souls at all.

Damn, why is this monkey here, and there are two of them!

Niutou and Mamian secretly groaned in their hearts, darling, why did they meet this master, every time they met him, the underworld would be a mess, as far as my two brothers are concerned, don't be hit by this monkey Get cleaned up, and by then, death will be in vain.

"Brother, what should I do?" Ma Mian asked with a sad face. He regretted it in his heart. If he had known yesterday, he would not have gambled with that black and white impermanence. Originally, those two were supposed to be on duty today, and the two brothers were really catching up. Make trouble!

"What can we do, close the gate of the city quickly, you go to inform Lord Yan, and say that two great sages equal to heaven have come to the door!" Niu Tou said angrily, and waved his hand to signal the ghost messengers who were in chaos under the city. When the door was closed, the two monkeys could see that the visitors were not friendly. If they were let in like this, there might be troubles. After the investigation, the two monkeys would definitely not be as good as his brothers.

"Brother, don't be stupid, can this city gate stop Monkey King?" Ma Mian said.

"If you can't stop it, you have to stop it. If you don't stop it, you and I will be in trouble. You should go and tell the king of Hades!" How could Niutou know that the gates of the dead city can't stop the monkey's power, but If there is something wrong with the responsibility, the two brothers are afraid that they will be thrown into hell and suffer for a period of time.

In just a short while of speaking, the two monkeys had already flown to the gate of the city. Seeing that the gate of the dead city was closed, they stopped fighting and shouted for the people inside to open the gate.

A sly look flashed in Ma Mian's eyes, and he said: "Brother, in my opinion, we will wait here. If the monkey comes in, we will lie down on the ground, pretend to be injured, and turn our heads to Lord Yama. When asked, we did our due diligence to resist the monkey's injury, and we may not be blamed, but it's because of this rotation, our brothers have blocked the disaster of that black and white impermanence, so let's just let it go? Let's do it again Rest up for a few days to recover from your injuries, hehe, can black and white impermanence be on duty for us?"

This person is lazy, I didn't expect ghosts to want to be lazy.

When Niutou heard this, his heart was moved immediately. Although the monkey is fierce and stubborn, he will never kill them, the gods of the underworld. They just need to hide when the monkey breaks the door, and there will be no trouble.

"Then follow what Brother Xian said!" Niutou nodded and said.

The monkey is really angry, but who would have guessed that some little ghosts plotted against him, if he were to find out, it would be worth rewarding each of these two little ghosts because of his flexible temperament made by Buddhism all these years. of.

"Your grandpa grandpa is here, the gatekeeper hasten to open the door!" The monkey shouted towards the top of the wall.

"Look, my grandson is here, open the door quickly, don't delay your grandpa's important event!" The six-eared macaque also shouted loudly.

"Yo, the great saint is here. The great saint is here. The little god has already sent someone to report to Hades. His old man will come soon. Please wait a little bit, wait a little bit." The bull's head showed a head on the top of the wall, He smiled cautiously.

Both he and Ma Mian stood far away from the city gate, for fear that the monkey would affect them when they broke through the city.

The city of death in vain was built after the Jade Emperor took charge of the Heavenly Court. It was to provide a place to stay for the souls that had just been hooked from the underworld. After all, even gods have limited manpower. Wait for the king of hell and the judge to go through the procedure to see how many sins you have, and then you can decide whether to reincarnate, which one to enter, or go to hell to suffer.And these ghosts waiting to be judged wandered in the city of vain death, allowed to enter and not allowed to leave, lest they would not know where to go when looking for someone, the underworld is vast, and it is still very laborious to find a ghost.

"My old grandson is not looking for Hades, open the door quickly!" the monkey restrained himself a little and shouted again.

"Great Sage, you two came all of a sudden, and there was a lot of commotion just now, and the little god wouldn't dare to let you in without notifying Hades!" the bull head said with a wry smile.

This is a fact, that is, monkeys, if someone else slaughtered ghosts without authorization and disrupted the order of the underworld, the bull head and horse face would have led troops out to arrest them, so they would hide on the top of the city and close the city gate!

"Noisy!" The six-eared macaque snorted coldly, waved the iron rod in its hand, and a huge stick shadow, magnified thousands of times, slammed into the city gate with a destructive power. above.

Boom!

Like thunder from the sky, the two of them only felt the city wall shake under their feet, and the whole city of vain death suddenly emitted a burst of black light, and then the city gate shattered, and countless ghosts were captured by this huge He was injured by the impact and fell to the ground.

The bull-headed and horse-faced two exchanged glances with each other, and then they each slapped their hands on their bodies, spat out a mouthful of blood, and then shouted together: "The Great Sage Equaling Heaven has come in, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven has entered the city, everyone Come with me!"

The two cunning ghosts shouted, but their bodies honestly hid in an inconspicuous corner, and then leaned there, motionless, as if they had been knocked out.And none of those ghost messengers dared to go up to stop them, they all scattered towards the city, the old, the old, the ghosts, and the old spirits, they were all ghosts, and they couldn't be ghost messengers if they didn't have the eyesight, they could smash the dead city with a stick It is definitely not an existence that they can fight against.

The city gate of death in vain is commonly known as the gate of ghosts. It was smashed once by monkeys when they made trouble in the underworld, and it was smashed by six-eared macaques today.

The two monkeys didn't care about the scattered ghosts or the bull-headed horse-face who fell to the ground. Instead, they glanced at each other, turned into two golden lights, and rushed straight into the city of death, towards the ashram of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Go, the six-eared macaque is very alert. He has never been to the Yin Division, and he doesn't know where the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is. He secretly lowered his speed, lagged behind the monkey, and followed him closely.

The little monk Ksitigarbha was chanting scriptures with his eyes closed in the hall, to save the evil spirits. Suddenly, two extremely powerful fluctuations of mana came from his spiritual perception, and they were rushing towards him.

He was a little confused, so his Ksitigarbha Temple had always been deserted, and no one would bother him except the last time Naveda Bodhisattva visited because of the Jinshan incident. After all, he made a big oath that hell is not empty. Swearing not to become a Buddha, all gods and demons with a little cultivation in the Three Realms know that he will not interfere in the affairs of the Three Realms, so what are these two people doing here?
But the doubts turned into doubts, the little monk still stood up, ready to welcome the arrival of the two monkeys, the two monkeys arrived at the hall in the blink of an eye, saw the young monk Jueqiao's face waiting, how could they not know that this Bodhisattva had long ago Waiting for the two of them to come to the door.

Monkey Sun and Six-Eared Macaque both saluted and said in unison: "I pay homage to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva!"

Two identical monkeys? !
A look of bewilderment appeared in the little monk's eyes. What's the situation? There are two identical monkeys. He knew that the heel of the grandson monkey was conceived by Nuwa's multicolored stones, but he had never heard that the multicolored stones were conceived. There was a pair, or did the monkey grandson find a twin brother?

He didn't think about someone pretending to be a monkey grandson. First, the six-eared macaque's transformation technique is too realistic, and he can't see through it. Second, who would pretend to be this monkey?But all strong gods and demons know that this monkey is a pawn for Buddhist scriptures, and pretending to be him, apart from being sent by Buddhism, what benefits can there be?
"You two don't need to be too polite, please sit down quickly." The little monk returned a salute, signaling them to take their seats.

"Why are you sitting still? The two of them are here to find Di Ting to distinguish the real from the fake. Little monk, you should take them there quickly." In the hall, a clear voice suddenly came, followed by a figure in purple clothes Walked in, who wasn't Mo Chen who was following behind?
"Big brother?!"

When the little monk Jue Qiao saw Mo Chen, he called out in surprise, his two big bright eyeballs curved into crescents, but he remembered his identity after all, so he didn't run up excitedly.

Mo Chen looked at the little monk's eyebrows and eyes and was quite happy, saying that he hadn't seen the little monk Jueqiao for a long time since Emperor Fengdu became a saint back then, and it was the last time he secretly came to the underworld to find Emperor Fengdu for help He also avoided the little monk, he was afraid that he would find little monk Qiao embarrassed, whether to help Buddhism or him, it would be better not to see him.

"I haven't seen you for many years. I wonder if you are the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, little monk, or the little monk Jue Qiao who is not familiar with the world?" Mo Chen looked at Jue Qiao with a smile and asked.

"Ksitigarbha is Jue Qiao, and Jue Qiao is also Ksitigarbha. In front of big brother, the little monk will always be the little monk." Jue Qiao looked at Mo Chen and said meaningfully.

"Bodhisattva, you should catch up with this crow later. I have heard for a long time that you listen to the name of the beast under your command. Please come out quickly and tell the truth from my old grandson and this monster!" Sun Houzi was a little impatient. the way.

"Bodhisattva, this evildoer is rude, please bring out the beast quickly, my old grandson won't be able to spare him later!" the six-eared macaque said...
