Martial Arts: Immortality Begins from The Deer and the Cauldron

Chapter 1498

"After the Dragon King of Jinghe was beheaded, a ghost appeared outside my palace gate. Do you know where this ghost came from?"

Li Shimin asked.

"I don't know. I just speculate based on common sense. Shouldn't it be the Dragon King of the Jing River?"

"This evil dragon's spirit persisted after his death, and he blamed His Majesty for everything. That's why he pretended to be a ghost outside the palace gate day and night."

Wei Zheng said bravely.

"Wrong. As the king of a country, I have the luck of the whole country and the dragon energy protects my body. How can a mere evil spirit harm me?"

"That ghost is clearly Guanyin Bodhisattva."

Li Shimin said with a stern voice.

Wei Zheng was stunned and lost his voice:
  "What, how is this possible?"

Although he had some dealings with Buddhism, this only involved Zhou Xiyou
  Buddhism once promised that as long as he could kill the Dragon King of Jinghe, help Buddhism promote the journey to the west, and spread Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty.

Then after his death, he can directly enter the priesthood and serve as the judge of the underworld.

From now on, he will be immortal and will never have to suffer the pain of reincarnation again.

But Buddhism never told him any of these details.

If I knew he would kill me, I wouldn't dare to make such a deal

You must know that once the murder of the emperor is exposed, it will be a serious crime of beheading. It will directly implicate the nine clans. Even after death, he will be infamy and be reviled by future generations.

He did these 797 things just because his brain was crazy.

"What? Are you still pretending not to know now?"

Li Shimin sneered.

Wei Zheng was so anxious that he almost cried and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Your Majesty, I swear to God, I really don't know about this."

Damn it, I knew this deal wasn't that simple.

If you cut off your head, you can become a priest and transcend reincarnation directly. How can there be such a cheap thing in the world?
  It turns out there is such a calculation here.

This trick of Buddhism really screwed him up.

"Wei Zheng, you are really audacious, and you still don't admit it to this day."

Li Shimin shouted angrily.

"I will give you one last chance to make the deal with Buddhism a reality, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless.

His face was extremely gloomy, and he wanted to drag this rebellious minister out immediately and kill him.

Wei Zheng, on the other hand, was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat.

Now things really get serious.

If the explanation is not good, not only will he be guillotined, but he will also implicate the entire family.

It will be infamy for thousands of years.

Is it really worth it just to get a position as a judge after death?
  And now that Journey to the West has failed, can Buddhism fulfill its original promise?
  But if he really tells everything about what happened at the beginning, he will offend Buddhism.

As the emperor, Li Shimin could certainly cure him of his sins, but those gods and Buddhas could also make him irrecoverable.

Now he seems to be in a dilemma, no matter what he does, he will be finished.

Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng whose expression changed again and again.

An unprecedented feeling of disgust arose in my heart.

Originally, in his impression, Wei Zheng was an honest and upright official. In the court, even if he made a mistake, the other party could speak out.

He admires his lack of fear of power and his impartiality and selflessness.

But I didn't expect that Wei Zheng actually had a disobedient heart.

To this day, he already understands the context of the matter, but the other party is still trying to hide it and evade responsibility.

Not even telling the truth.

He really deserves to die. Do you really think that you dare not punish him?
  After a long time, Wei Zheng raised his head and looked at Li Shimin.

A wry smile appeared on his face. He said slowly:
  "Your Majesty, I really didn't lie. From the beginning to the end, I never had any experience with the Jin Dynasty."

"What happened in the beginning was all arranged by Guanyin Bodhisattva personally."

Hearing this, Li Shimin's pupils suddenly shrank, and his expression became colder.

Sure enough, what the consort said was true.

The affairs of Jinghe Dragon King were all controlled by Buddhism behind the scenes.

"Wei Zheng, tell me what happened in detail, otherwise, I will destroy your history."

Wei Zheng did not dare to neglect and hurriedly told what happened.

"At the beginning, Guanyin Bodhisattva promised me that as long as I could kill the Dragon King of Jinghe River, I would help Buddhism promote its journey to the west and promote Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty."

"After that, you can enter the underworld and serve as a judge."

"I considered that these matters would not cause harm to His Majesty and the Tang Dynasty, so I agreed."

"As for the saying, the Guanyin Bodhisattva deliberately used magical powers outside the palace gate to scare His Majesty, which caused His Majesty to fall ill and wander to the underworld.

“I really don’t know these things.

"You really don't know? What's going on with Tang Sanzang? He's from Buddhism. Don't tell me you don't know him."

Li Shimin snorted coldly.

Guanyin Bodhisattva used magical powers to make him seriously ill, and then his soul wandered to the underworld.

When he met Tang Sanzang again, Tang Sanzang saved his life in the underworld. In this way, he owed Buddhism's kindness.

These things are all linked together.

As a participant in the plan, he didn't believe that Wei Zheng didn't know.

"Tang Sanzang, what does he have to do with this matter?"

Wei Zheng said a little confused.

Li Shimin saw Wei Zheng still pretending and sneered.
  "I met Tang Sanzang in the underworld. It was under his leadership and introduction that I met Yama and left the underworld."

"You harmed me, then pretended to be a good person, and then rescued me so that I could feel grateful. Buddhism has such a deep plan."

When Wei Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but feel stunned.

He is worthy of being a god and Buddha, and his plans and original plans are all perfect.
  When Guanyin Bodhisattva instructed him to do some things, he was still very confused. What was the purpose of Buddhism doing this?
  Now that Li Shimin said it, he suddenly realized.

It turned out that the other party had already made a comprehensive plan.

Not only the emperor, but also he was treated as a pawn

But the emperor was just a mortal, how did he know about this? Could it be that Fang Za had a right relationship with some god or Buddha?
  At this moment, Li Shimin shouted angrily.

"Wei Zheng's criminals went up to cause rebellion. Wei Zheng's criminals went up to cause rebellion, intending to rebel. People came here to plot rebellion.
  Now, put him and everyone in the mansion into prison, and then be executed on another day!"

The sound was like thunder, and a group of guards rushed up immediately. Wei Zheng suddenly trembled with fright and said quickly:
  "Your Majesty, no, I have a life-saving grace for you!"

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, with a look of ridicule on his face. This rebellious minister dared to talk sweetly even though he was about to die.

When had he ever saved his life?
  Wei Zheng seized the opportunity and quickly explained:
  "Your Majesty, I have some friendship with Judge Cui of the underworld. When your life was about to expire, I made many pleas before Judge Cui agreed to extend your life by twenty years."

"The prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty today was created by His Majesty's hard work."

"The longer your Majesty lives, the longer this prosperous age will be.

"I admit that I did something wrong at the beginning, and my crime deserves death. However, I have always thought about your majesty and the entire Tang Dynasty." Wei Zheng's words were sincere.

Constantly showing loyalty.

After all, now that the plan has been leaked, he is suspected of murdering the emperor's life.

Once this kind of crime is carried out, the nine clans will definitely be punished, and he will be infamy for eternity.

Now we can only hope that this kind of life-saving grace can make Li Shimin open his eyes.

Li Shimin was originally in a furious state, but when he heard this, he became angry.

He knew that Wei Zheng practiced immortal arts, and his hands and eyes could reach the sky, but he had never heard that Wei Zheng had a friendship with the judge of the underworld.

This matter involved his own life span, so Li Shimin naturally did not dare to be careless, and frowned and asked:
  "Extend my life for twenty years? When did this happen?"

"Your Majesty, this is when your soul wanders to the underworld."

Wei Zheng replied quickly. Soul travels to the underworld?
  Doesn’t that mean it was just before the journey to the west?
  To be precise, it was probably more than ten years ago.

Now that more than ten years have passed, doesn't that mean that I have only a few years left to live?
  Thinking that his life was coming to an end, Ji Shimin's expression suddenly turned serious.

"Wei Zheng, are you telling the truth?"

"Your Majesty, how dare I lie? I have entered the underworld and checked the book of life and death."

Wei Zheng said quickly.

"You mean the book of life and death records that I will die in the near future?"

Li Shimin asked.

No wonder I've been having headaches lately.

The imperial doctors in the palace took turns to diagnose him, but they could not find out what the illness was.

It turns out that this sound is destiny. It turns out that this is destiny.

"That's right. Destiny is determined by fate. There will be no mistakes if you think about it."

Wei Zheng said anxiously.

Suddenly I remembered that by saying this, wasn't it obvious that he was telling Li Shimin that he only had a few years to live?
  If you offend the other party in this way, I'm afraid your situation will be even worse.

But there is no other way. This is his only life-saving straw, and he must seize it.

Li Shimin's face was uncertain, and he already half believed Wei Zheng's words.

This made him anxious.

He was in his prime years in the Spring and Autumn Period, so he should have worked hard to lead the Tang Dynasty to prosperity.

I didn’t expect that I didn’t have many years to live.

And all this is still the so-called number of days.

Damn it!
  Li Shimin's face suddenly showed a look of resentment.

Buddhism, the culprit of all this is Buddhism
  If Buddhism had not allowed his soul to return to the underworld in order to plan a journey to the west, how could his lifespan have been wiped out directly?
  Wei Zheng also relied on his friendship with the judges of the underworld to gain these twenty years of life.

But even so, he won't live long

This Buddhism is really damnable!
  Fortunately, he still supported the spread of Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty!
  Li Shimin suddenly looked at Wei Zheng again and said:
  "Wei Zheng, do you think the number of days can be changed?
  "Your Majesty, it's hard for me to say anything about this matter. When I first begged Judge Cui of the underworld to extend your life for Your Majesty, he refused.

"But later I considered that I will enter the underworld and become a judge. Judge Cui opened the factory online for the sake of his colleagues."

"I'm afraid it won't work now."

Wei Zheng hesitated.

In fact, he hid something from Li Shimin. He originally begged Judge Cui to extend Li Shimin's life.

Presumably the other party was not looking at his face, but was influenced by Buddhism.

After all, this journey to the west is a series of plans. When Li Shimin's soul traveled to the underworld and was rescued by Tang Sanzang, it can be said that he has received the blessing of Buddhism.

Li Shimin's favorable impression of Buddhism greatly increased, and he agreed to promote Buddhism and promote the journey to the West.

How could Buddhism let him die in such an unknown way?
  At least we have to wait until Tang Sanzang returns from collecting scriptures and spreads Mahayana Buddhist scriptures throughout the entire Nanzhan continent.

However, he did not dare to tell Li Shimin this kind of speculation. After all, he relied on this kindness to survive.

Thinking that he didn't have much time left to live, Li Shimin was not interested for a while, and his stock price fell into a state of despair.

He no longer had much thought about settling old scores with Wei Zheng.

Directly order people to put him in jail and deal with him later.

"This damn Buddhism is so abominable!
  Li Shimin was so angry that he overturned the table to the ground.

Not only did they use him as a pawn, but they also wanted him to die.
  It's really too much of a lie.

He now had an impulse in his heart, wishing to immediately level all the temples in the Tang Dynasty and kill all the bald donkeys to vent his anger.

"Ah! It hurts."

Suddenly Li Shimin screamed, put his head on his hands, and fell to the ground.

It feels like my head is being stabbed with needles and being pinched by a sword, and the pain is unstoppable and there is still a kind of pounding pain and fatigue.

"Is this what is called the number of days?"

Li Shimin's face turned pale, and he believed what Wei Zheng said more and more, as his end was near.

"Your Majesty, are you okay? Call the doctor quickly."

The eunuch on the side ran forward in panic. Li Shimin waved his hand. He had completely recovered and did not believe that Xichen's medicine could cure his headache.

At this moment, a scent of flowers suddenly wafted over. Li Shimin took a breath, and suddenly felt that his pores were dilated, his whole body was relaxed, and his headache was instantly relieved a lot.

Li Shimin was refreshed. He looked up and saw several flowers placed on the table next to him, and his eyes suddenly brightened.

“Could this flower be able to cure my headache?
  These flowers were brought by him and Li Jing from Qin Ran's house.

Originally, he planned to send these flowers to the Queen's Palace to make the other party happy. Unexpectedly, these flowers actually affected his condition.

But Li Shimin shook his head in an instant, feeling that it was impossible.

Wei Zheng just said that he had personally seen his life span in the Book of Life and Death.

No matter how magical this flower is, can it still change the number of days?
  Even if you are free from illness and disaster, can you still refuse if the King of Hell sends ghosts to seduce souls and demand their lives?
  "The prince-in-law is divine in nature, he must have a way."

Thinking of Qin Ran, Li Shimin had hope again
  My son-in-law is a person that even gods and Buddhas such as Tathagata, Buddha, Guanyin, and Bodhisattva can look down upon.
  Even Wei Zheng could change this so-called acceptance number based on friendship, let alone Qin Ran?
  Thinking of this, Li Shimin became more confident.

If it hadn't been getting late now, he would have wanted to go to Qin's house immediately.
  Within the Hongmeng Pearl space.

Qin Ran opened his eyes, and a Qingyun emitting vast divine light appeared above his head, covering the whole world.

It only took half a day for him to finish curing the medical Qingyun.

Looking at the Qingyun, Qin Ran showed a satisfied look on his face.

Coupled with the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag and other five-directional flags, the defensive magic weapons on his body are already very considerable.

Then, he turned his attention to the direction of the palace

Li Shimin summoned Wei Zheng not long ago. After verifying what he said, Li Shimin had a very bad impression of Buddhism.

After everything is done, you can watch your hands pull out the Buddhist doors.

Qin family.

Two women suddenly appeared outside the door.

One was wearing a white palace attire, with a graceful and graceful figure, exuding a graceful and luxurious demeanor.
