The disaster of the world begins with Dongfang Bubai

Chapter 164 Ridiculous, ridiculous (4000 two-in-one)

“Fighting Holy Buddha, the God of Plague has no intention of fighting with you, so you might as well stop.” The Jade Emperor appeared in the sea of ​​clouds.

"Your nephew and this evil god have come to my house to fight, and you want me to stop." Sun Wukong shouted:

"Old Jade Emperor, are you trying to protect me?"

"Holy Buddha, please forgive others when you can. If the Plague God could really defeat you, why would he avoid the battle and flee?"

"It's not difficult to ask me to stop the fight. Mount Emei is where my cave is. We can't let them mess around again."

"This?" The Jade Emperor looked hesitant.

"See, you are just protecting your own shortcomings!"

"According to you, if Erlang Shen and the God of Plague go to Mount Emei again, they will be disobeying the imperial decree." The Jade Emperor paused and continued:

"Sun Wukong, don't forget that we high-fived and swore an oath."

"I am a person from outside the mortal world, so I don't want to care about the affairs of your heavenly palace." Sun Wukong disappeared in the sea of ​​clouds.

"Your Majesty, I will go to Mount Emei first to tell Yang Jian about your will."

"Go."

After a while, at the foot of Mount Emei, Yang Jian gave the order:

"Secure all exits of Mount Emei. If Liu Chenxiang comes out, kill him without mercy. And just like the God of Plague said before, take his soul back to heaven."

"Yes." The Meishan brothers accepted the order.

"In that case, I will return to heaven first." Xi Mingzhang flew away with a smile on his face.

Three days later, the Plague Palace.

In the courtyard, Xi Mingzhang was sleeping leisurely on a recliner. Suddenly he felt the earth shaking, but he did not even raise his eyelids and continued to rest.

The Taoist priest came hurriedly and said:
"Emperor, the Bagua furnace in Tushita Palace has collapsed again, and the elixirs have all been stolen."

"The Bagua furnace in Tushita Palace collapsed and the elixir was stolen. What does it have to do with my Wenhuang Palace?" Xi Mingzhang said calmly with his eyes closed.

"Uh"

The Taoist priest was stunned. Although what he said was correct, he always felt that something was wrong.

Master Quanshan came to the courtyard and reported:

"Emperor, ever since Sun Wukong was suppressed under the Five Finger Mountain, his Qitian Mansion in heaven has been converted into a duck pen. I don't know who tore down Qitian Mansion and scattered the ducks in the mansion to all parts of the Heavenly Palace."

Xi Mingzhang still had his eyes closed and spoke slowly:
"He overturned the Bagua furnace, stole the immortal pill, and is now related to Qitian Mansion. Who else do you think it could be?"

"Sun Wukong!" The two men suddenly understood and said in unison.

"Today, the many trivial matters of the Heavenly Court are handled by the God of Justice. Even if the sky falls, there is a ceiling. You all should go down." Xi Mingzhang reminded lazily:

"By the way, no matter who comes, tell them that something went wrong with my practice these past two days and I need to recuperate. If you have any fun, you can come and report it."

"Yes."

More than an hour later, the Taoist priest came to the courtyard and said:

"Emperor, not long ago, Liu Chenxiang smashed the eighteen levels of hell in the underworld, rescued the ghost Liu Yanchang, released hundreds of thousands of evil ghosts, and burned the Liujia Village's Book of Life and Death."

"Originally, Your Majesty wanted the Emperor to lead the heavenly soldiers and generals to the lower world, but considering that the Emperor was injured, and Fairy Chang'e said that the Emperor and Erlang Shen had repeatedly failed to capture Liu Chenxiang."

"In the beginning, his magic power was too weak to catch him. Now, I don't know where he got the ability to travel across the three realms, so it is even more impossible to catch him. Therefore, Li Jing and his son should lead the heavenly soldiers and generals."

"Afterwards, the Queen Mother spoke up and asked Li Jing and Erlang Shen to jointly command, with the former as the chief and the latter as the deputy."

After more than an hour, Master Quanshan came to the courtyard and said:

"Emperor, the Zhenjun Temple was demolished. I heard that the Fairy of Flowers knew about Erlang Shen's secret, so she colluded with the Bull Demon King and had him imprison the Fairy of Flowers. Liu Chenxiang tried to use his merits of exposing Erlang Shen's crimes and rescuing the Fairy of Flowers to pardon the Three Holy Mothers."

"Now, except for the eldest brother Kang Anyu, all the Meishan brothers of the Zhenjun Temple have been detained, including the 1,200 Grass Head Gods. Only Erlang Shen and Xiaotian Dog escaped with serious injuries."

"It's really hard for him." Xi Mingzhang said something that Master Quanshan couldn't understand.

He was already used to the man in front of him talking nonsense, so he said:
"Emperor, tomorrow is the Peach Banquet. Are you still planning to stay at home due to your illness?"

"I heard that Li Jing and his son will take Liu Chenxiang to Yaochi at the Peach Banquet tomorrow. I think tomorrow will be very lively."

Xi Mingzhang said casually:

"I've had enough of the noise and bustle. I'll stay at home tomorrow and drink tea and read."

The next day.

"Emperor, something terrible has happened. Nezha secretly colluded with Liu Chenxiang and brought him to Yaochi just to help him save his mother. After Your Majesty and Your Majesty disagreed to release the Three Holy Mothers, Liu Chenxiang started a killing spree in the Heavenly Palace." The Plague Taoist came to report with a panicked look on his face.

Xi Mingzhang still said calmly:

"If I am not mistaken, Yang Jian should have come to rescue you in time."

"That's right. Fortunately, Erlang Shen came to the rescue in time. However, according to Laojun, the elixir in the Tushita Palace must have been stolen by Liu Chenxiang. That's why he has boundless magical powers. Since the power of the elixir has not been completely integrated into his flesh and blood, if it is forced too much, it will stimulate his greatest potential."

The Master of Persuasion kept saying:

"So, now I am planning to use a trick to subdue Liu Chenxiang, but I don't know if it will succeed."

When he said this, the Taoist priest came over quickly and said:

"Emperor, Liu Chenxiang gave up his own magic power in exchange for the pardon of the Three Holy Mothers by the Heavenly Court, but he had no idea that the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother who were negotiating with him were fake."

"Now Erlang Shen is reluctant to kill Liu Chenxiang because he is his own nephew, so Taishang Laojun petitions His Majesty to throw Liu Chenxiang into the Bagua furnace, hoping to use it to refine the elixir from before."

"Haha, people in heaven are really thinking about this." Xi Mingzhang waved his hand and said indifferently.

Half a day later.

"Emperor, I don't know why Liu Chenxiang escaped the disaster and recovered his magic power. Now he is causing trouble in the Zhenjun Temple and even rescued Sun Wukong." The plague Taoist priest looked incredulous:

"How is it possible that Sun Wukong would be imprisoned by Erlang Shen?"

"What if Erlang Shen got the powerful Precious Lotus Lantern and used this treasure to capture Sun Wukong in one fell swoop?" Xi Mingzhang said without opening his eyes.

The Taoist priest shook his head:
"That's impossible. I heard that only a benevolent magical power can control this treasure."

"Who knows? Erlang Shen, who might be considered heartless, ruthless, and ungrateful, could actually be a selfless and kind person."

After Xi Mingzhang finished speaking, Taoist Wen felt that this was a huge joke.

More than half an hour later, Master Quanshan ran into the courtyard in a hurry.

"It's not good, Emperor. Liu Chenxiang, together with Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, led the thousands of demons from Jilei Mountain and the immortal mortals from Liujia Village to attack the Heavenly Palace." "They fought all the way to the Lingxiao Palace. Fortunately, Your Majesty and the Queen Mother retreated to Yaochi in time. Now they are urgently summoning all the gods to rescue you."

"The highlight is finally here." Xi Mingzhang opened his eyes, stood up slowly, and sneered:

“It’s anticlimactic, but worth a look.”

At the same time, there was chaos in Yaochi, and even Nezha joined Liu Chenxiang's side, knocking the Four Heavenly Kings to the ground and attacking the Queen Mother directly.

"Nezha, you colluded with evil spirits before, and I have already given you a lenient sentence, only sentencing you to face the wall for five thousand years, but you actually rebelled, what a traitor you are."

"I don't deserve to be a thief. Nezha is a born rebel." When his Qiankun Circle was about to make a move, Taibai Jinxing hurried forward to stop him and said:

"I can't do it, I can't do it!"

"Nezha, don't you always help the weaker side?" Xi Mingzhang suddenly appeared in front of the Queen Mother and said with a faint smile:
"Looking at the situation in Yaochi now, it's obvious that the Heavenly Court is very weak!"

"God of Plague, you have been in the Plague Palace before, and you have no idea how tyrannical and unjust the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother are by relying on the power in their hands." Nezha broke free from Taibai Jinxing's hand and spoke angrily.

"So, the problem can be solved by shouting and killing?" Xi Mingzhang asked calmly.

After hearing this, Nezha remained silent.

On the other hand, Liu Chenxiang, after being reminded by Taishang Laojun, realized that if he continued to make trouble like this, it would only cause chaos in the three realms, so he shouted loudly to stop.

Soon, the two sides confronted each other, and Taishang Laojun came to the Jade Emperor:

"Your Majesty, Chenxiang came to heaven simply because he felt that the Heavenly Law was unfair and wanted to rescue the Three Holy Mothers. If Your Majesty can agree to modify the Heavenly Law and pardon the Three Holy Mothers, the siege of Heaven will be lifted immediately."

"Okay, okay, as long as he withdraws his troops, I will immediately pardon the Three Holy Mothers." The Jade Emperor said without thinking.

"Your Majesty has surrendered like this. Where is the majesty of the Heavenly Court?" The Queen Mother immediately whispered:

"Since Liu Chenxiang said that the Heavenly Law is unfair, let him tell us exactly where the Heavenly Law is unfair."

When the Jade Emperor heard this, he felt that it was correct and said loudly:

"Liu Chenxiang, since you say that the Heavenly Law is unfair, then what is it about the Heavenly Law that you say is unfair?"

"The greatest injustice of the Heavenly Law is that you people abuse the Heavenly Law, allowing the officials to set fires but not the people to light lamps." Liu Chenxiang took a step forward and said solemnly:
"My Queen Mother, Erlang Shen, I don't know how many heavenly laws I have violated, but I have not been punished. However, you have imprisoned my mother under Mount Hua for more than 20 years just because my mother and my father got married."

"Your mother has brought this upon herself." Queen Mother said coldly.

"The interaction between heaven and earth, the combination of yin and yang, is the foundation for the reproduction of all things and the inevitable development of all things. How can people who have not experienced affection and love understand the suffering of all beings in the three realms?"

When Liu Chenxiang said this, he heard Queen Mother Wang reply:
"You are just making excuses for desire."

"Yes, you gods seem to have no desires, so you can enjoy a peaceful life in heaven without worrying about the natural disasters and man-made disasters in the lower world. What's the difference between you and those corrupt officials in the lower world?" Liu Chenxiang said with sarcasm.

The Queen Mother retorted:

"Of course there is a difference. Most of the gods in heaven have gone through hundreds or thousands of years of cultivation before they achieved enlightenment."

Liu Chenxiang became even more indignant when he heard this, and said:
"Before you became a god, you devoted yourself to cultivation, and you said things like benefiting the three realms and saving all living beings. It sounded better than singing. But once you became a god, you forgot everything."

"What have you done for the Three Realms? You say that for the sake of order in the Three Realms, you must forbid the gods from having mortal desires."

"My mother was tempted by worldly desires, but she helped the people of Huashan to resolve disasters and difficulties and did countless good things. She is a hundred, a thousand times better than you guys who are not tempted by worldly desires and are hypocritical."

"Ridiculous, ridiculous." Xi Mingzhang smiled and shook his head.
"In the end, it's just for your own selfish desire to ask the Heavenly Court to release your mother who broke the law knowingly."

"How could she know what a god is and what a god's duty is? As the Three Holy Mothers of Mount Hua, Yang Chan should have eliminated disasters and solved problems for the people of Mount Hua. If she didn't do what a god should do, then she doesn't deserve to be a god."

"It's worth talking about for doing something that's in your duty. You're still a child after all."

He ignored everyone's gazes and said nonchalantly:
"Liu Chenxiang, do you know what it means to me that Yang Jian suppressed Yang Chan under Mount Hua?

"He just locked his own sister in her room to reflect on her mistakes, hoping to avoid the investigation of her mortal desires in heaven."

"You should know that the Seventh Princess was banished to the mortal world because she yearned for the mortal world, had her immortal bones removed, and was banished to the mortal world, forever trapped in the cycle of reincarnation."

When the gods heard this, especially the last two sentences, they couldn't help but think to themselves:

"You can actually understand it so well. You are worthy of being the Plague God."

Liu Chenxiang had not expected that the Heavenly Court would be so cruel to the immortals who wanted to become mortals. He pondered for a while and said:
"Doesn't this further prove that even gods cannot cut off their seven emotions and six desires? It also proves that the seven emotions and six desires are common to both humans and gods. Forbidding them from having worldly desires is against the common nature of humans and gods."

"The mortal mind is desire, and even more so lust. The duty of the gods is to benefit the three realms. The heavenly rules prohibit not only the lust of the gods, but also all kinds of desires such as greed, anger, and ignorance." Xi Mingzhang's eyes fell on Liu Chenxiang:
"Take you for example. Yang Chan is the product of a violation of the Heavenly Law. You are the son of a human god, with excellent natural comprehension. Once you gained great magical powers, you first caused chaos in the Heavenly Palace, and then made a big fuss in the underworld. Not only did you destroy the Book of Life and Death in Liujia Village, you also overturned the Eighteen Layers of Hell and released hundreds of thousands of evil spirits."

"Now he is even bringing demons and monsters to heaven to force the emperor to abdicate."

"It is hard for me to imagine what the world will be like when there are tens of thousands of Liu Chenxiang in the Three Realms."

The Jade Emperor couldn't help nodding his head:

"What the God of Plague said is true. It seems that the Three Holy Mothers really cannot be released. If the Heavenly Law is modified, the consequences may be unpredictable."

The Queen Mother also said:

"Liu Chenxiang, you went through so much hardship in order to rescue your mother and reunite your family. There is nothing wrong with that. It is what a person should do. But the Heavenly Court insisted on not releasing your mother, and that is also not wrong."

"This is to maintain the order of the Three Realms. Is it worth it to disrupt the order of the Three Realms just for your own little family?"

She didn't wait for Liu Chenxiang to react and said directly:

"So, even if it means everything will be destroyed, the Heavenly Court will not change the Heavenly Law under the threat of a monster. Just give up on this idea."

"You will suffer for your own sins. Since the way of heaven is unfair, then we don't need heaven anymore." After Liu Chenxiang said this, Dingxiang beside him shouted:

"Kill the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother, and pacify the Heavenly Palace."

Her words were instantly echoed by the thousands of demons and immortal mortals behind her, who all shouted:

"Correct!"

"kill!"

"Amitabha." Guanyin Bodhisattva, dressed in white and holding a jade bottle, descended from the sky. The Jade Emperor shouted:
"Bodhisattva, please help me in heaven!"

"Chenxiang, doing this will not only fail to save your mother, but will also bring disaster to all living beings in the three realms." Guanyin Bodhisattva said.

"They only care about the majesty of Heaven and don't care about the sentient beings in the three realms at all." Liu Chenxiang suppressed the anger in his heart.

"Your Majesty, Madam, how about I make a bet with you?"

"If your majesty or your majesty wins, I will help the Heavenly Court to withdraw the troops. But if unfortunately I win, please ask the Heavenly Court to pardon the Three Holy Mothers."

Before the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother opened their mouths, they heard a bland remark:
"It's interesting that a Buddhist monk would take the initiative to make a bet with others. He really doesn't even pretend."

Suddenly, Yao Chi was completely silent and the atmosphere was weird.
