Double Journey to the West: Suppress Buddhism and Taoism at the beginning

Chapter 111 Wei Zheng: It is said that I am in heaven, where is my dragon?

The Heavenly Soldier and Heavenly General smiled and said, "I'm afraid your trip was in vain. Although the Dragon King violated Heaven's rules, His Majesty the Jade Emperor instead of blaming him, actually praised him greatly, and now he has returned to the lower realm!"

Wei Zheng was taken aback and lost his voice: "How could this happen?"

The Heavenly Soldier continued: "The Dragon King of the Lower Realm has made good friends with the Great Master Mingyang. The Great Master Mingyang went to the Lingxiao Palace to intercede for him, so His Majesty the Jade Emperor will not blame him."

"Master Mingyang" Wei Zheng grasped the key and discovered that the key point was exactly about Mingyang.

However, he had never heard of this person, so he asked: "Master Mingyang, which immortal in heaven is he?"

"Master Mingyang is the great master of Chechi Kingdom in the lower realm. When he first formed the golden elixir, more than half of the immortals in heaven came to congratulate him."

"Even the Supreme Elder personally gave him a gourd of elixirs and even named him Taoist Son."

"So, although Master Mingyang is still in the lower realm, the immortals in heaven still have some affection for him."

"The great master of the Chechi Kingdom? The Supreme Taoist Patriarch personally appointed the Taoist Son?" Wei Zheng murmured, still shocked that there was such a defiant person in the world.

"Okay, since you're fine, let's go back first!"

That day the soldier said so.

Wei Zheng bowed and returned to the lower realm.

In Chang'an City.

in the palace.

Wei Zheng, who had been sleeping soundly on the chessboard, suddenly woke up.

"Are you awake? Are you too tired recently?" Therefore, Emperor Tang also asked with concern.

Wei Zheng shook his head: "I am not asleep. I just received a decree from the Jade Emperor, asking me to kill an evil dragon in my dream at three quarters of noon today."

"Slaying a dragon in a dream?"

Emperor Tang was stunned: "Are you talking about the Jinghe Dragon King?"

Emperor Tang's expression changed slightly. His original intention was not to let Wei Zheng ascend to heaven and slay the dragon.

However, who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, Wei Zheng could fly into the sky and slay the dragon in his dream...

In that case, wouldn't Tang Huang's hard work be in vain?

Wei Zheng said: "The person I want to kill is the old Dragon King of Jinghe. He has violated the laws of heaven, and the Jade Emperor wants to put him to death."

Then he asked: "How did your Majesty know that he was the Dragon King of Jinghe?"

Emperor Tang sighed: "I once dreamed that the old Dragon King of Jinghe came to me and begged me to stop Wei Zheng and Aiqing to kill him. That's how today's chess game happened."

"Who would have thought that Aiqing could ascend and slay a dragon in a dream?"

Emperor Tang sighed: "It seems that I made a miscalculation and failed to fulfill my promise to the Old Dragon King of Jinghe."

"I see."

If Wei Zheng realized something, he nodded and said: "Your Majesty, you don't need to blame yourself. I didn't really kill the old Dragon King of Jinghe when I went to heaven this time."

"Huh? How do you say this?" Emperor Tang was stunned for a moment, then he realized what he was doing and asked, "Could it be that the Old Dragon King of Jinghe mentioned me to you and asked you to be merciful?"

"No."

Wei Zheng shook his head and said truthfully: "Old Dragon King of Jinghe, it was because someone interceded on his behalf that the Jade Emperor did not punish him and even planned to reward him heavily."

"Is there anyone else interceding for him?"

"He has violated the rules of heaven, what's the use of begging for mercy?" Emperor Tang couldn't help but ask.

"Of course, this person who begged for mercy is not an ordinary person." Hearing this, Emperor Tang couldn't help but take a breath: "Who is that person? He has such prestige?"

"He is Lin Yao, a Taoist priest in the mortal world. His Taoist name is Mingyang. He is the great master of the Chechi Kingdom."

"The Great Imperial Master of Che Chi State? Where is Che Chi State?" Tang Huang shook his head. He remembered the name Lin Yao, but he didn't care about it because he didn't even know where Che Chi State was, and he didn't feel that he was related to Lin Yao. Yao has any intersection. There was silence in Chang'an City.

Guanyin Bodhisattva frowned slightly and looked away from the sky, only to see the Dragon King of Jinghe landing on the ground safely.

Lin Yao and Xiao Bailong Ao Yu also followed.

what's the situation? The Jinghe Dragon King is still alive?

Guanyin Bodhisattva frowned. This was not something he had planned, nor was it what he wanted to see.

Therefore, Master Guan Zizai said to his disciple Mu Zha: "Mu Zha, go to the Heavenly Court and find out why this Jinghe old dragon is not killed by the Heavenly Court?"

"Yes."

Mu Zha took the order and immediately went to heaven to ask questions.

a long time……

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva looked at Mu Zha who had returned from heaven and said, "Have you ever known why the Dragon King of Jinghe River is still alive?"

Mu Zha had a strange look on his face and was slightly hesitant.

"All this happened because the Taoist priest named Mingyang interceded for the Dragon King of Jinghe."

"Moreover, the Jade Emperor also commended the Jinghe Dragon King."

"Instead of beheading, you will be rewarded?" Guanyin Bodhisattva frowned: "Why? Come to me quickly."

Mu Zha had no choice but to honestly tell everything he heard, including the scene played by Lin Yao in Lingxiao Palace in front of everyone, and what he said about Guanyin. Various words of the great master.

Hearing this, Guanyin Bodhisattva's face lost any expression.

However, his hatred for Lin Yao reached its extreme.

"This Mingyang actually has such a powerful spell?"

"Mingyang, you are so brave, how dare you say this to me in heaven!"

When the Emperor of Tang Dynasty fell asleep, his own experience involuntarily emerged in his mind. He not only dreamed of the Dragon King of Jinghe River, but even knew that his ministers could slay dragons in their dreams.

In this wonderful feeling, he fell into a deep sleep.

Emperor Tang fell into a deep sleep, but from this sleep, he never had the chance to wake up.

Early the next morning, the imperial physician came and concluded that Emperor Tang was seriously ill and could only live for seven days at most.

In an instant, a sense of sadness spread, and many civil and military officials came to visit. Even the Emperor of Tang wrote his own edict, but Wei Zheng handed a letter to the Emperor.

"I have a memorial to present to Your Majesty. It will be sent to the underworld and handed over to Judge Cui Jue."

Emperor Tang asked in confusion: "Who is Cui Jue?"

Wei Zheng said: "Cui Jue was a person close to the late emperor. He was first the magistrate of Zizhou and later promoted to the minister of the Ministry of Rites. He was friends with me in Japan and was a close friend."

"He is already dead, but he is now the judge of the underworld, in charge of the power of life and death. If I give this letter to him, he will let His Majesty come back for my sake."

When Emperor Tang heard this, he was overjoyed. He had seen Wei Zheng's extraordinary ability and trusted him even more. He took him into his arms, then closed his eyes and died.

After the death of Emperor Tang, he went to the underworld and got a special opportunity

……

After the Jinghe Dragon King thanked him profusely, Lin Yao returned to the Chenghuang Temple.

In the City God's Temple, Lin Yao glanced in the direction of the palace and roughly estimated that Emperor Tang should be dead.

"Okay, I just want to see if I can influence Emperor Tang."

Lin Yao's visit to the Tang Dynasty was not without purpose, but to preach. So when he came to Chang'an City, Lin Yao had already calculated that Emperor Tang was about to go to the underworld to report, so he also planned to go.
