I asked you to play a dungeon, why don't you just raise the BOSS here?

Chapter 422: The Great God also sent me dreams, I am not afraid

"Now that your majesty has put it this way, I understand."

Lin Xuan pondered: "The two worlds correspond to each other? Is there also a water curtain cave on the deserted island?"

"In the world of Jambu, the Flower-Fruit Mountain is the ancestral vein of the ten continents and the source of the three islands. It was established when the pure and turbid were separated and was formed after the separation of primordial chaos."

"But the orthodox ones in the Conferred Gods world are Kunlun Yuxu Palace and Donghai Biyou Palace, and Huaguo Mountain is still an unknown desert island."

"There should be a cave in the waterfall, but it's probably empty."

The Queen Mother Hou Tu smiled and said, "If you are interested, you can also erect a stone tablet there and engrave 'Flower-Fruit Mountain Blessed Land, Water Curtain Cave Heaven'. It will surely become a good story in the future."

"Engraving is simple, but let's get down to business first."

Lin Xuan stared at the talisman in his hand: "What will happen if this talisman is attached to the immortal stone?"

"The immortal stone in the world of Jambu is the one that created the world. It took the essence of the sun and the moon to produce a stone egg, which was blown by the wind and turned into a stone monkey."

"Since the Conferred God plane corresponds to it, there should also be a stone monkey embryo in it. This talisman is my origin, containing the essence of the earth and mountains. It can transform the stone egg in it into the stubborn monkey."

The Queen Mother Hou Tu smiled and said, "According to the number of the stars in the celestial sphere, the immortal stone is thirty feet six feet five inches high. It has nine holes and eight holes on it, corresponding to the nine palaces and eight trigrams. There are no trees on all sides to block the view, so it is very easy to spot."

"This..., with Sun Wukong's cultivation, he should have achieved the unity of all heavens, right?"

Lin Xuan was somewhat puzzled: "Such spirit monkeys were created by heaven and earth to seize the fortune of heaven and earth. It is unlucky to see two of them. Why did the queen create another one?"

"You are indeed right..."

Hou Tu Niangniang sighed softly: "But the monkey is gone now. I can only use this method to help it be reborn."

"The monkey is gone?"

Lin Xuan was stunned: "Madam, do you mean that the Monkey King has fallen and disappeared?"

"When I saw the monkey, he was almost insane and just swung his stick around. It took me some effort to get him back to his senses."

"When the monkey saw it was me, he seemed relieved and said that the Taoist priest was more reliable than the bald man. He also said a lot of weird things to me."

Niangniang Hou Tu pondered and said, "I guessed, but I heard that he seemed to mean that everyone was fooled. His master died, and his good brothers also died. Even if they are not dead, they might as well die."

"There have been many strange things happening in Buddhism recently. It seems that even the Monkey King has a hard time transcending them."

Lin Xuan nodded: "Then what?"

Conspiracy theories and blackened texts about Journey to the West are common, and Lin Xuan is no longer surprised by such plots.

Considering what Buddhism has done recently, Lin Xuan even felt that it was quite reasonable.

"The monkey cried as he spoke, saying that he wanted revenge, but he had been tricked and put under a spell, so he would never be able to defeat those bastards for the rest of his life."

"I don't care what else I say. The tight hoop is the product of Tathagata's magical power. Even I can't do anything about it. Advise him to go and beg the Jade Emperor for mercy."

"That monkey said it's useless to call the Great Heavenly Venerable, and he is locked up here and can't get out at all."

"Finally, I don't know what the monkey thought of, but he suddenly laughed out loud and said that even if the monkey master died, as long as his true spirit was not extinguished, he would be a good monkey again in 18 years, without the damn tight hoop on his head."

"I advised him to think of another way, but he ignored me this time and directly activated the Yin Fire and Wind, which passed through Dantian and the Nine Apertures, dissolving his bones and flesh, and turning his nearly indestructible Buddha body into dust."

Empress Hou Tu coughed and said, "You didn't see it. The impact was quite strong at that time."

"Your Highness, what you said is so vivid and it really sounds very impactful..."

Lin Xuan hesitated for a moment, his expression a little strange: "May I ask where did you see this monkey? Why didn't you stop it?"

"I don't know where the monkey is imprisoned, and the monkey can't explain it clearly, but it feels like the place where he is is surrounded by chaos, as if it is the original world before the beginning of time."

Queen Hou Tu pursed her lips and said, "Maybe the situation in the dream is not accurate."

"…Did your Majesty see the Monkey King in a dream?"

"To be exact, it should be the monkey who appeared in my dream..."

"I felt a sense of connection, so I slipped into my dream and met the monkey."

Empress Hou Tu said calmly: "The Emperor will not think that I am daydreaming with my cultivation level."

"I didn't expect that such a powerful person would also use the art of dream transmission to convey information..."

Lin Xuan shook his head and said, "I am surprised by what I have seen. Please continue, Madam."

"Well, in ancient times, the witch clan often had a dream for years. Without leaving home, they could visit relatives and friends and gain enlightenment through all kinds of bizarre dreams."

"After the Wu clan was destroyed, only the superficial aspects of this magical power remained. It was often just the souls of the dead in the underworld relying on the karma of blood ties to send messages to ordinary family members in their dreams. It should not be considered a magical power."

Niangniang Hou Tu pondered and said, "So, the monkey must have been unable to bear the humiliation and activated his original power to end it. It just so happened that he and I had some karma, so I was able to see it in a flash of inspiration. It was an accident."

"Your Majesty is well-informed and has a strong memory. I will learn from you."

Lin Xuan bowed slightly: "Saints, beggars, gods, Buddhas, pigs and dogs, since we have walked through this world, we are naturally bound to suffer from all kinds of causes and effects."

Many people think that Sun Wukong was born from the stone that Nuwa used to repair the sky.

But Lin Xuan thought about it and concluded that only the TV series version starring Dicky Cheung had the setting that Sun Wukong was transformed from the remaining sky-repairing stone by Nuwa, while the others were mostly follow-up quotations from ancient literature.

If it was that version of Sun Wukong, he would probably send a dream to Nuwa.

But in other mainstream versions, including the original work, monkeys are just born from fairy stones and the essence of heaven and earth.

Hou Tu Niangniang is in charge of the earth and mountains. This native stone monkey is indeed more closely related to Hou Tu Niangniang.

"Anyway, since this monkey came to me at the last minute, I should try my best to help him."

"His tight band is not a good thing. Once you put it on, even if you don't have it on your head, you can't get rid of it in your heart."

Hou Tu Niang Niang sighed: "It would be nice to live a new life, so I can travel light without so many shackles and constraints."

"What the queen said even makes sense."

Lin Xuan agreed, "If that's the case, it's not a bad thing for the Great Sage. Your Majesty, if you create another Great Sage, it will be a great merit."

In Journey to the West, five hundred years ago, Sun Wukong, if he wanted immortality, went to the King of Hell to change the Book of Life and Death; if he wanted a weapon, he went to the Dragon King to ask for the golden cudgel; if he was unhappy as an official, he went home to enjoy his freedom; if you come to challenge me, I will make a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace.

Five hundred years later, Sun Wukong could not go back to be free even if he was unhappy as an apprentice; his master was tied up by monsters several times and wanted to be steamed and eaten, but he had to honestly ask about the monster's background and did not dare to kill the monster at will. When he saw the monster's background, he had to suppress his anger and put on a smile.

With just a tight hoop, the Monkey King was transformed into the appearance that Buddhism required.

Lin Xuan still likes this monkey very much and hopes that the monkey can live a more free and easy life.

Anyway, this monkey never eats people, so it cannot be considered an enemy of humans.

"It's easy to say that recreating the monkey is easy, but in fact, the cause and effect involved are quite large. I thought about it and it might not be easier than removing the golden seal of the Buddha on the Five Finger Mountain in the past. Only a person with great luck can do it."

"As the Earth Mother, if I take action myself, unexpected changes will occur."

"Originally, if it was Mr. Zhang, I would have arranged for him to go to a small world with thin spiritual energy, and inject his luck into the talisman, so that the monkey would appear in the world without causing too much harm to him."

“But the Conferred God World is about to be born, and it is full of spiritual energy. It is also the best choice in the universe.”

“If that monkey gets help from the Emperor and is born with the essence of heaven and earth, he might be even stronger than he originally was.”

The Queen Mother Hou Tu smiled and said, "That monkey is extremely talented. If he can be enlightened by the Emperor, he will most likely be able to help the Emperor in due time."

"I understand what the Queen means. The Great Sage is indeed extremely gifted and has great magical powers."

Lin Xuan nodded: "In the Conferred God Plane, there will most likely be a battle with the Buddhist sect. Since the Great Sage wants revenge, then let's follow the Empress's words and have a grievance and a debt."

Although Sun Wukong studied with Patriarch Bodhi for a total of more than ten years, the first seven years were spent on self-cultivation and cultivating his character by preaching scriptures, practicing calligraphy, burning incense, sweeping the floor and weeding the garden, growing flowers and pruning trees, searching for firewood to start a fire, and carrying water and transporting pulp.

Later, Patriarch Bodhi saw that the monkey was quite intelligent, and spent another three years teaching it the secret of immortality: "the monkey has a tangled appearance, a strong life, and can grow golden lotus in fire."

The seventy-two transformations and somersault cloud that come after that are just magical powers.

At that time, the monkey could already understand everything and handle everything easily.

Considering that Monkey King had spent the previous seven years cultivating his character, he actually cultivated nothing but loneliness...

Lin Xuan felt that the monkey's real combat power was formed during the three years when Patriarch Bodhi taught him kung fu.

Since this monkey learns so quickly, this matter is easy to handle.

Even if the monkey that popped out didn't inherit the Monkey King's memory...

But if I use the mirror, the stone monkey can still share the experiences, skills and insights of "him".

With that monkey's extraordinary talent, it shouldn't take long for him to recover his original strength.

He can even learn the Buddhist magical powers like Ao Xue and become the Fighting Buddha without the tight hoop form.

This is just the lower limit...

If the monkey could be integrated with strange dimensions like "The Sequel to Journey to the West", he could be upgraded to "Namo Great Sage Relics King Buddha".

Even if Wu Tian and Tathagata met that monkey, they would probably have a headache.

"Yes, the old woman and Yao Chi's master thought so too. Not only are they eager to do it, they have also boasted to me several times."

“But I have no connection with the Conferred God event. Even if I spend a huge price, I may not be able to go there in person. I can only use some small tricks.”

The Queen Mother of the Earth blinked her eyes and smiled, "By the way, my Heavenly Court is bound by an agreement and cannot directly fight with the Buddhist sect. That's why I was a little hard of hearing just now, and I couldn't hear the Emperor's words clearly."

"Don't worry, Madam. Leave this matter to me. I will certainly live up to your trust."

"Very good. I feel relieved when I hear them talk about the Emperor's deeds."

"As for what's going on here..., it's reasonable to go to the Hades' Hall and have Zhang Juzheng's name written off." "But it's no big deal. I can just go over and let them know."

Hou Tu Niangniang thought for a moment and said, "Birth, aging, illness and death are the rules of humanity and the foundation of the six realms of reincarnation. I ask the Emperor to weigh the pros and cons and not force anything."

"Thank you for the reminder, Madam."

Lin Xuan nodded and said, "I will weigh the specific candidates carefully."

"Well, with the Emperor's merits, it's fine to appoint dozens of immortal officials. But it's better to find some people with good morals and great fortune, so as not to be criticized and it seems that our Heavenly Court is too partial."

"Well, we are all family. Helping you is helping myself. Besides, it's just a small favor, not a big deal."

The Queen Mother of Hou Tu flicked her sleeves and said, "In this case, I will go back. Your Majesty, please take care of yourself."

"Mother, take care."

"I heard that women in the mortal world now like thin men. 'Take care' is no longer a nice word."

Queen Hou Tu chuckled and shook her head, then she took a half step back and disappeared into the void.

"This group of gods is quite abstract..."

Lin Xuan shook his head and turned to look at the small building: "Since Your Majesty has not fallen asleep, why don't you come out and talk?"

"It's fine with others, but this Queen Hou Tu is really amazing..."

Zhu Yuanzhang pushed open the door unhappily. "I just wanted to push the door open and go out, but my heart suddenly started beating for no apparent reason, as if something terrible would happen if I went out."

"Well, Your Majesty is the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and the cause and effect are spread throughout the heavens."

Lin Xuan comforted her, "Empress Hou Tu is a calm person, so it's normal for her not to want to see Your Majesty."

Old Zhu is now considered a martial arts master.

If Lin Xuan weren't counted, Lao Zhu, in his current state of being the best, should have a chance to become the best in the world.

But just a thought from Hou Tu Niangniang made Zhu Di unable to move forward or backward.

It is estimated that only after Zhu Yuanzhang merged with the heavens and became the "Hongwu Divine Emperor" would he have the opportunity to sit at the table and chat and laugh with the Three Pure Ones and the Four Imperial Gods.

As for Lin Xuan himself...

In fact, he felt that his character was definitely not as good as those of these great figures throughout the ages.

But he was lucky, and the reincarnation space chose him as the contemporary traveler.

If luck is also a part of strength...

Then I am still quite strong.

"Hahaha! I never thought that the great Queen Mother Hou Tu would actually be afraid of trouble."

Zhu Yuanzhang was very proud: "Very good! In this case, it is she who does not want to see me, not that I dare not see her."

"What's the difference..."

Lin Xuan laughed and shook his head: "Let's go, after meeting Zhang Juzheng, we can leave here."

"Okay, okay, it's really frustrating to see a bunch of good-for-nothings all day long."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said, "After I go back, I will give Old Four a good beating."

"As long as your majesty is happy."

***
"It turns out that there are so many heavens and worlds in this world. The vastness of the universe really contains countless mysteries..."

Zhang Juzheng put down the mirror and bowed to Lin Xuan: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your help!"

Hou Tu Niangniang is still very efficient in her work.

Within a cup of tea, the dead air in Zhang Juzheng had disappeared, and his whole body exuded vitality.

After watching "Looking in the Mirror", Zhang Juzheng's temperament became even more profound, as if he could see the rise and fall of ancient and modern times at a glance.

The Genshan Pearl also continued to spread from a faintly visible glow until it turned into a yellow light that covered most of the mansion.

"Mr. Zhang has survived a great disaster and will have good fortune in the future. Now that the matter is over, Emperor Hongwu and I will leave. I hope you will take care of the matter of Genshan Pagoda."

Lin Xuan smiled and said, "Next time you come over, I'll find you a set of immortal arts. How much you can learn depends on your luck."

But Zhang Juzheng could only watch "him and me", and did not try to integrate "him and me" to achieve the only clue of the heavens.

Lin Xuan estimated that this might be due to the fact that Zhang Juzheng's legend was insufficient.

After all, this first prime minister of the Ming Dynasty cannot be compared with Emperor Hongwu.

I'll find some more people to try it out and see if this guess can be confirmed.

It’s actually not easy to find such a person. Currently, the only one who can see something is at least at Huang Shang’s level.

Even Wanli, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, did not have the qualifications to watch him and me, the only one who could prove the truth.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will do my best to build the tower."

"Since the Emperor has important matters to attend to, I cannot keep you here. I wish the Emperor all the best."

Zhang Juzheng hesitated for a moment, then bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "Your humble servant Zhang Juzheng respectfully bids farewell to the Great Emperor Hongwu."

"Hahaha, you are an interesting person."

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said: "If you want to be a powerful official, then be a good one. The descendant of the fourth son is not a good person, but it is also his blessing to meet a powerful official like you."

"It's as if the Prince of Yan is not your Majesty's biological son."

Lin Xuan laughed and shook his head, then opened the door and said, "Let's go."

"We respectfully send off the deputy leader."

In the courtyard, Mr. Mo Da and Liu Zhengfeng led a group of masters from the Five Mountains Sword Sect and stood on the left side, smiling at Lin Xuan.

Masters like Yue Buqun and Hengshan Sanding are relatively normal characters in the martial arts world.

But people of the Hengshan School emphasize versatility.

It should be relatively normal to see Mr. Mo Da holding the erhu and Liu Zhengfeng holding the guxiao.

The instruments played by the other masters became more and more outrageous.

Lin Xuan was surprised to find that one of the young disciples had a suona hanging around his waist.

All right, our Hengshan sect can live without life, but it cannot die.

Very Florida spirit.

"Farewell, Master."

On the right side, Xue Qianxun, together with the followers of the Sun and Moon Sect, bowed to Lin Xuanyingying.

After hearing about the story of Sunflower Patriarch, Ren Woxing's ambitions vanished. He felt that fame, wealth and honor were all dust, so he lay down obediently on the Black Wood Cliff.

Nowadays, the internal and external affairs of Heimu Cliff are basically handled by the chief steward Xue Qianxun and the saint lady Ren Yingying.

As Dongfang Bubai's confidant, Xue Qianxun had already prepared for the worst.

As a result, he can continue to be the chief steward and hold such power.

To some extent, Lin Xuan was like a benefactor to her.

"Well, as a warrior, you still have to pay attention to the word 'chivalrous'. You have done a pretty good job in the past few years."

"Time is tight now, so I'll take my leave now. When I have time in the future, I'll bring Yao Yue over to visit and spend a few days with everyone."

Lin Xuan glanced at Xue Qianxun and said with a smile: "I have seen a girl named 'Nie Xiaoqian' in another world. She looks exactly like you."

"Ah? Is this happening?"

Xue Qianxun was stunned, and she felt a little curious: "Can Qianxun meet that person?"

"There is a chance, but when I met her, she had been dead for many years."

"She was reincarnated later and is still a little girl now."

Lin Xuan waved his hand and said, "When she grows up, I will arrange for you to meet her. You are all classic characters."

As soon as the words fell, the space around him began to ripple.

The figures of Lin Xuan and Zhu Yuanzhang quickly faded until they disappeared without a trace.

"...classic character? What does this mean?"

Xue Qianxun blinked in confusion, then bowed towards the place where Lin Xuan left, and pondered to herself.

The leader of the Sun and Moon Sect is one of the most important figures in the world.

The leader was upgraded to Emperor Donghua, who was a big shot beyond her imagination.

Such people must have deep meaning in what they say.

If you can understand it a little bit, you may benefit a lot from it.
