Others follow advice and imitate celebrities, but you start by pretending to be a god?

The common people below also noticed some subtle changes. They cheered for their country's great master, but also booed the holy monk from the Tang Dynasty with disdain.

Lin Nan's eyes were sharp and he said bluntly, "Master Xuanzang, I advise you not to have any illusions about the so-called Mahayana Buddhist scriptures in Lingshan."

"Bodhisattvas like Guanyin, don't they study the Mahayana Buddhist scriptures?" Lin Nan continued.

"But even after learning it, they still raised demons and allowed them to devour young boys and girls. They had the ability to stop it, but chose to turn a blind eye."

"On the contrary, when I took action to kill the demon, they immediately jumped out to stop me."

After Lin Nan finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Tang Sanzang and asked, "Master Xuanzang, do you think Guanyin is guilty?"

This question made the people present nod their heads in agreement.

At the same time, they all knew that this scene was exactly what happened in "The Great Master Kills the Goldfish Spirit with His Sword".

Faced with Lin Nan's questioning, Tang Sanzang was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to respond.

After a long while, he stammered, "I don't know anything about the Bodhisattva either."

Lin Nan's face was calm, and he responded calmly: "Oh?"

"But you believe in Buddhism, and what you worship is this Bodhisattva, right?"

"Does Master Xuanzang think that Bodhisattvas must be perfect, without the slightest blemish?"

As he spoke, Lin Nan began to list the faults of Guanyin: "Not only is Guanyin good at raising demons, she also shelters demons and harms the kind-hearted Dragon King, all for her own selfish gain."

Lin Nan's eyes were like torches, and he asked Tang Sanzang a soul-searching question: "Is this the Bodhisattva you believe in?"

A few drops of cold sweat appeared on Tang Sanzang's forehead.

His face was solemn, and he seemed a little uneasy: "We, the little monks, cannot intervene in the affairs of the Bodhisattva."

"Oh." Lin Nan responded calmly, "This is why we don't welcome Buddhism."

"and……"

As he spoke, Lin Nan glanced at Tang Sanzang's third disciple Sha Seng in the audience.

"You so-called pilgrims claim to have immeasurable merits, but before all the merits, you are filled with deep sins."

Below the stage, Sha Seng felt a chill all over his body, but he did not dare to say anything. He subconsciously moved closer to Sun Wukong, as if he was afraid that Lin Nan would attack him the next moment.

At this time, Tang Sanzang on the stage spoke up: "Everywhere mortals live, there are different countries, and the laws of each country are also different."

"Although Wujing has committed some sins, he can turn back and do good. He did not do any evil in Chechi Country."

There was still some favoritism towards his own disciples in his words.

Lin Nan couldn't help but laugh after hearing this: "What's the difference between Master Xuanzang's actions and those of the masters I just mentioned as examples?"

Tang Sanzang was stunned and speechless for a moment, and finally could only utter "Amitabha".

"You are right. The Liusha River is not the border of our Chechi Kingdom, so the laws of Chechi Kingdom cannot extend there."

Lin Nan looked deeply at Tang Sanzang, as if hinting at something: "Therefore, we cannot force people outside Chechi Country to respect Taoism and despise Buddhism."

“But if one day, the name of Che Chi completely occupies the world, there will be no more glory of Buddhism, and there will no longer be a situation where sins cannot be judged.”

"The name of Che Chi has completely taken over the world?"

Not only Tang Sanzang, but also the common people below, were all stunned when they heard this.

While they were surprised, they also felt their blood boiling at Lin Nan's words.

This was the first time that Lin Nan expressed his expectations for Che Chiguo in public.

Naturally, the people were shocked.

Lin Nan then asked Tang Sanzang: "From what you have seen, whether it is the Great Tang in the East or other countries, are there any countries where the people are as prosperous and happy as Chechi Kingdom?"

Tang Sanzang was silent, recalling what he had seen and heard along the way.

Except for the five hundred monks who were moving cement, it seemed that all the people had smiles on their faces, and the whole city was filled with a positive atmosphere.

Thriving.

It is not an exaggeration to use this word to describe the current Chechi Kingdom.

Monks do not lie.

Tang Sanzang had been a monk since he was young and had strictly followed these teachings, so after a moment of silence, he had no choice but to admit, "No."

Lin Nan nodded and stood up suddenly.

"That's right. In today's world, when it comes to wealth and happiness, no country can compare to Chechi."

“Buddhism says that Mahayana Buddhism can save all living beings, but in Chechi country, there is no trace of Buddhism, and all living beings are just as happy.”

"If all living beings want peace, happiness and prosperity, they have never relied on Buddhism or Taoism, but on reasonable rules and regulations, and the spirit of self-improvement of everyone."

Lin Nan stood on the altar and passionately expressed his vision: "The ideas, rules, and systems of Chechi Country will eventually take over the human world and become the mainstream, bringing peace and prosperity to the human race."

Tang Sanzang stood there, not knowing how to respond.

Off the stage, Tang Sanzang's disciples, whether it was Sun Wukong or Zhu Bajie, were not interested in these.

They were originally high-ranking gods, and now they are no longer ordinary people, so they don’t care much about the changes in the human world.

Sun Wukong cares more about another point.

Seeing that Tang Sanzang didn't say much and was losing the discussion, he became a little impatient.

After all, they were still in Chechi Kingdom and needed the king to issue a pass and rescue the five hundred imprisoned monks.

So, Sun Wukong said loudly: "Master Lin Nan, we are passing by here, not to discuss governing the country with you!"

"You are the Grand Master, and we are not the Grand Masters. We cannot care so much! Don't take advantage of this opportunity to bully my Master."

"I will fight you. If I win, you will ask the king to use the seal for our pass and release the five hundred imprisoned monks!"

As he spoke, Sun Wukong leaped up and directly onto the altar. He looked at Lin Nan, his eyes full of provocation.

"Sun Wukong, don't humiliate yourself."

At this time, another figure came forward. It was Lin Nan's disciple Liu'er Mihou.

The six-eared macaque said to Sun Wukong, "If you want to fight, Old Yuan will accompany you. Why do you want to humiliate yourself? You are no match for my master."

Hearing this, Sun Wukong suddenly became angry: "What do you think of me as a disciple? I am still the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, and Lin Nan is the Lord of the Dao Court. It is reasonable for me to fight him."

"You are fighting him, it is not your turn as a disciple to intervene!"

Sun Wukong scolded Liu Er Mihou in this way, and he only wanted to fight with Lin Nan.

Lin Nan shook his head: "Six Ears, please step back."

Lin Nan called down the Six-Eared Macaque and then looked at Sun Wukong.

"You want to fight me again?"

"Okay, I'll give you this chance. Even if you fail in the fight, I'll have the king issue you a pass."

"As for the five hundred imprisoned monks...it depends on your methods." Lin Nan agreed, willing to fight with Sun Wukong.

"Humph!"

The six-eared macaque snorted and said to Sun Wukong, "You can't even beat me, and yet you want to fight my master? You are really asking for trouble."

Behind Sun Wukong, Tang Sanzang couldn't help but whisper, "Wukong, are you sure you can beat him?"

"Try it."

Sun Wukong, who has always been arrogant, did not dare to make any guarantees at this time, which shows how much he values ​​Lin Nan now.

Even though he didn't say it out loud, it was already quite difficult for Sun Wukong to fight against the six-eared macaque alone, and it was difficult to easily determine the winner.

As for Lin Nan, he had already tasted defeat in Wuzhuang Temple last time, so he was not completely confident in this fight.

However, even so, Sun Wukong's fighting spirit did not diminish in the slightest.

"Grand Master, how do you plan to fight?" King Chechi asked from the audience.

"The battle should not be held in the city. We should go to a remote place to avoid harming innocent people." Lin Nan waved his hand, signaling everyone to disperse. "Everyone, please leave. The king can stamp the pass for them with a seal, but it must be the seal of the country, not the seal of a vassal state."

Guanwen is actually a synonym for passport and visa. When Tang Sanzang and his entourage traveled west to seek Buddhist scriptures, they had to show their "passport" and obtain a "visa" in each country they visited.

This "visa" was the seal of the local royal palace and king. When Tang Sanzang returned to the Tang Dynasty, this pass became a witness to his journey.

As for the distinction between vassal states and superior states, it is the difference in humanity. The Tang Dynasty in the East is the center of humanity and is also the "superior state".

In theory, all other countries are vassal states, and no one can compete with them. This shows that the status of the Eastern Tang Dynasty is indeed unique.

However, at this moment Lin Nan asked King Chechi to issue a "visa" to Tang Sanzang and to claim to be a superior country.

This is undoubtedly a symbol of status. King Chechi was stunned when he heard this, but soon nodded and agreed: "Okay, I will follow what the Grand Master said!"

After making all the arrangements, Lin Nan called out to Sun Wukong, and the two of them soared into the air, ready to go fight somewhere else.

"Your Majesty, we want to go and watch the battle." The three national masters, Huli Daxian, Luli Daxian and Yangli Daxian, could no longer sit still. They all flew into the air, said goodbye to King Chechi, and followed closely behind.

Next to Tang Sanzang, Zhu Bajie was scratching his head. Seeing this, Tang Sanzang knew what Zhu Bajie, who was usually very lazy, was thinking at the moment, so he said, "Bajie, you should go and have a look too!"

"Yes, Master." Without saying a word, Zhu Bajie picked up his rake, called for a auspicious cloud, and chased after him.

It was Sha Seng who always followed Tang Sanzang closely.

"Wujing, don't you want to go and take a look?" asked Tang Sanzang.

"I dare not." Sha Seng answered honestly, "If I am not careful, the great master will kill me."

Sha Seng showed fear on his face and was obviously quite afraid of Lin Nan.

Tang Sanzang thought about it and decided that it was the same, so he stopped forcing it. He looked at the figures going away in the sky and thought to himself, "I wonder if Wukong can beat Lin Nan."

At the same time, by the Blackwater River, a burly man with a nine-foot-tall, full beard, sword-like eyebrows and tiger eyes shouted, "Catch the gods and send away the ghosts, the gods of this place, show up quickly!"

Suddenly, a whirlpool appeared in the Black Water River, and the old Black Water River God slowly emerged from it.

"Little God greets the Great King of Exorcism!" As soon as the water god of the Black Water River came out, he immediately bowed to the big man.

This big man is Zhang Lie, the demon king who drives away gods and demons, and Zhang Daoling's former guardian beast. Beside him, there are a group of "seekers of the way" from the Tang Dynasty.

"You are the water god of this place, right? Let me ask you a question." Tiger demon Zhang Lie asked, "How far is this place from Chechi Kingdom?"

"Chechi Kingdom? You immortals want to go to Chechi Kingdom?" The Black Water River God was stunned, then said, "This place is already in the territory of Chechi."

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, the seekers from the Tang Dynasty looked at each other in surprise.

"We hurried and hurried, and finally arrived at Chechi?"

"Except for the time at Wuzhuang Temple, I have never been delayed. Logically, I should have caught up with Master Xuanzang."

Li Chunfeng calculated with his fingers: "We set out several months after Master Xuanzang, but the road has been smooth since we set out." "Now it seems that they are still ahead of us, perhaps they have passed the car delay."

The Black Water River God heard this and asked, "Master Xuanzang? Are you talking about the holy monk of the Tang Dynasty?"

"Do you know?" asked the tiger demon Zhang Lie.

"Of course I know. They just crossed the Black Water River a few days ago." The Black Water River God said, "It was me who rowed the boat to take them across the river."

"So they are still late?"

The others asked in surprise.

"Ah."

The Black Water River God said, "The territory of Chechi is huge, and Taoism is revered and Buddhism is despised. It will take a long time for the holy monk to cross Chechi."

Li Chunfeng smiled: "In that case, we can see Master Xuanzang again."

After they had discussed this matter, they hurried on their way, thinking that they could still see Tang Sanzang and his disciples ten times before they left.

The group of people, each using their magical powers, crossed the Black Water River and headed directly towards Chechi.

On the other side of Che Chi, a battle between Sun Wukong and Lin Nan was unfolding.

"where are we going?"

Seeing Lin Nan riding a dragon in front, Sun Wukong chased after him and asked this.

During this short while, Lin Nan had already flown some distance and was almost out of the range of the car.

"Well, this is it. It's all barren mountains. If we break it up, it can be considered as land reclamation."

Lin Nan brought Sun Wukong to a barren land on the edge of Chechi. There were many barren mountains here, which hindered the further development of Chechi.

So Lin Nan chose this place.

There are no people living here, but these barren mountains are broken, which is a good thing for Che Chi, so he kills two birds with one stone.

Lin Nan landed and turned to look at Sun Wukong.

"Well, how do you want to fight?"

Sun Wukong pulled out his Ruyi Jingu Bang from his ear, and said to the wind: "What else can we do? We will use our own magical powers, and the winner will be the king."

As he spoke, the golden cudgel in Sun Wukong's hand moved slightly, making a whistling sound.

As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Wukong suddenly jumped up, and without saying anything else, he swung the golden hoop in his hand down at Lin Nan's head.

"Take a stick from my old grandson!"

As the saying goes, "The golden monkey raises his powerful stick, and the jade sky is clear of dust for thousands of miles."

Sun Wukong struck with all his might.

The stick came out, causing the sky and the earth to change color, with wind and clouds moving along, and the space seemed to be shaking.

"boom!"

Sun Wukong was so aggressive and unreserved. (End of this chapter)
