Chapter 172 Erlang Shen Wants to Kill Tang Monk
Tang Seng's continuous questioning made Erlang Shen feel guilty and he dared not look him in the eye.

Nezha glanced at Erlang Shen and then at Tang Seng.

Perhaps because he was afraid that Tang Seng would question him, Nezha immediately lowered his head after looking at Tang Seng again.

"well said!"

Zhu Bajie excitedly applauded his master.

"Master is right!"

"When the mounts of the gods and Buddhas make mistakes, there is no punishment at all."

"They killed a lot of innocent people. It's much more serious than our case, right?"

"If you have the ability, go and catch them!"

"If you, Erlang Shen, catch them all, and you continue to talk about our affairs, I, Old Pig, will never refute you at all!"

Sun Wukong returned to Tang Seng and said proudly:

"Yeah, Three Eyes, go catch him if you can!"

"Do you dare to catch it?"

"Do you have the guts to catch it?"

"How dare you bully the weak and fear the strong!"

"Humph!"

After saying that, Sun Wukong snorted coldly.

Qin Shihuang and the other two finally understood what was said.

Erlang Shen's duty as the "God of Justice" is to maintain peace in the three realms.

In other words, in the Qin Dynasty it was equivalent to the "Tingwei", and in the Tang and Ming Dynasties it was equivalent to the "Dali Temple Minister".

What Erlang Shen is doing now is equivalent to turning a blind eye to officials who violate the law and not arresting them.

Severe crackdowns will be imposed on demoted officials or ordinary people.

"I thought gods were selfless..."

"Ah...it seems I was wrong."

Qin Shi Huang sighed.

"Yeah, Brother Zheng, you used to look for gods, but let's not do that."

Li Shimin patted Qin Shihuang on the shoulder.

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly and said unhappily:
"That means they are not my officers."

"If he was an official under my command, I would have chopped off his head long ago!"

Qin Shihuang and his two companions spoke without any reservations and very loudly.

It can be said that everyone present heard it clearly.

Erlang Shen's face darkened when he heard this.

I want to refute Tang Seng, Qin Shi Huang and others, but I don’t know how to refute them.

Nezha didn't dare to speak anymore.

Don't say you dare not speak.

Even though he was standing next to Erlang Shen now, he wanted to pretend not to know Erlang Shen.

Nezha didn't expect that Erlang Shen was actually such a person.

Nezha knew about Sun Wukong and others' journey to obtain Buddhist scriptures.

But Nezha didn't know the details.

The reason why he didn't know was not that Nezha didn't care about the affairs of Heaven, but that Nezha was put in solitary confinement.

Not long ago at a court meeting, he refuted several decisions of the Jade Emperor, which made the Jade Emperor very angry.

As a result, he was sentenced to three hundred years of solitary confinement.

If it weren’t for this time, Mu Zha went to the Jade Emperor and said that Sun Wukong was unwilling to go to the West to obtain the scriptures.

When the Jade Emperor couldn't think of anyone to use, Mu Zha suggested that Nezha and Yang Jian go.

Otherwise, Nezha would still be in solitary confinement now!

After learning about these things, Nezha looked at Yang Jian with a strange look.

Nezha originally didn't like many of the practices of the Heavenly Court.

Now that I know about these things, I hate Heaven even more.

Tang Seng asked again:

"Erlang Shen, God of Justice, why are you silent?"

"Are you scared?"

Yang Jian tightened his grip on the three-pointed, double-edged sword.

Everyone stared at Erlang Shen with sharp eyes.

Erlang Shen also knew that everyone's eyes were on him at this moment.

After a long while, Erlang Shen snorted coldly and shouted:

"Humph!"

"I am the God of Justice, so why do I need you to tell me what to do?"

"I, Erlang Shen, am worthy of Heaven!"

"I'm sorry!"

"I……"

Before Erlang Shen could finish, Tang Seng interrupted:
"Then can you live with your conscience?"

"Are you worthy of your position as the God of Justice?"

"Are you worthy of those innocent people who were harmed?"

"you……"

suddenly!

When Tang Seng was halfway through his speech, Erlang Shen pointed the three-pointed, double-edged sword in his hand at him.

Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng, the three disciples hurriedly stood in front of their master.

"Erlang Shen, what do you want to do!"

Sun Wukong held the golden cudgel horizontally in front of him, glaring at Erlang Shen.

"Erlang Shen, how dare you!"

Zhu Bajie clenched the nine-toothed rake in his hand and shouted sternly.

"Don't hurt my master!"

The crescent end of Sha Seng's demon-subduing staff was facing Erlang Shen.

Nezha looked at Erlang Shen in surprise.

"Erlang Shen, are you crazy?"

Nezha asked in surprise.

There is no problem in talking about Erlang Shen beating Sun Wukong and the other two.

After all, Sun Wukong and the other two all possess magical powers, so if a fight really breaks out, they won’t be easily killed.

But Tang Seng's mortal body cannot withstand a beating.

If something bad happens, it will be hard to explain.

Erlang Shen said coldly:

"If you keep talking nonsense, don't blame me for showing no mercy!"

After saying this, Erlang Shen turned around and flew into the sky with Roaring Sky Dog beside him.

Nezha looked at Erlang Shen who flew away, and then looked at Sun Wukong and the others.

In the end, he left with Erlang Shen.

After the two of them left, Sun Wukong and the other two breathed a sigh of relief.

If Erlang Shen really wanted to take action, Nezha would also help.

Sun Wukong really couldn't guarantee that he could protect his master.

Although he has two younger brothers, Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng, with their abilities, they are no match for Nezha and Yang Jian.

One encounter and he will be knocked away.

Only when Erlang Shen and Nezha could no longer be seen in the sky did Sun Wukong put away his weapons.

"I was so scared. I thought Erlang Shen had a brain attack and wanted to kill Master!"

Zhu Bajie said in a muffled voice.

He was really frightened by Erlang Shen's behavior just now.

I thought Erlang Shen was angry and humiliated because of what his master said to him.

Sun Wukong looked at his master Tang Seng and asked:

"Master, you're not scared, are you?"

Tang Seng shook his head slightly.

"No."

Tang Seng is not afraid of life or death.

He takes life and death lightly.

He had been captured by monsters so many times before, but he had never been afraid.

Why should we be afraid of Erlang Shen, the god of justice?

At this time, Ye Jiangnan, Qin Shihuang and the other two came over.

Sun Wukong said with a wry smile:
"I'm sorry!"

"I'm sorry to make you laugh!"

Qin Shi Huang sighed:

"It's no joke."

"We have seen many corrupt officials who exploit the people."

“I just didn’t expect that there would be one among the gods.”

"My previous impression of gods was too stereotyped."

Li Shimin nodded in agreement.

"Yes!"

"I never thought that there would be one among the gods."

"I have always believed that all gods are pure-hearted and have few desires."

"I didn't expect that this immortal is just like a mortal."

"We all have the same seven emotions and six desires, and we all have selfish desires."

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head slightly.

Ye Jiangnan said softly:
"You have too deep a stereotype of gods."

"Before becoming immortals, they were once human beings."

"Of course, some of them are not human beings, but fairies who have gone through certain tribulations and became gods."

"They are just like us. They definitely have emotions and desires."

"It's just that they have experienced certain disasters or misfortunes, and they don't show their happiness on many things."

“So, people can’t see it.”

"Anyway, don't think of them as being too perfect."

Zhu Bajie chuckled, approached Ye Jiangnan and asked:
"If that's the case, then do you, Immortal, also have seven emotions and six desires?"

Ye Jiangnan shrugged his shoulders and said calmly:
"Yes, I have!"

"For example, I also like to eat delicious food, and I also like to look at beautiful women like you, and I also have my own desires."

"What's there to hide?"

"If there were no emotions, how boring and dull would life be?"

"Besides, there is no meaning in living anymore."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Bajie looked at Ye Jiangnan in surprise.

He thought Ye Jiangnan would say "no", but he didn't expect Ye Jiangnan to admit it directly.

Moreover, like me, they both like “beauties”!
Zhu Bajie suddenly felt that they had met too late.

Tang Seng clasped his hands together and said:

"The Immortal is right."

"The seven emotions and six desires are actually human nature."

"Joy, anger, worry, thought, sadness, fear, and surprise are the seven emotions, which are the natural reactions of the human mind to the outside world."

“We feel happy when we see good things, angry when we encounter injustice, worried when we think about the future, sad when we recall the past, afraid when we are faced with the unknown, and surprised when we encounter surprises. These are all experiences of life, which allow us to feel the warmth and coldness of the world and understand the various aspects of life.”

"As for the six senses, the eyes see colors, the ears hear sounds, the nose smells fragrances, the tongue tastes flavors, the body feels touch, and the mind thinks. These are the ways we know the world."

“Without these six desires, people would be like walking corpses, unable to experience the beauty and complexity of this world.”

"It is not a sin for people to have seven emotions and six desires."

"Of course, the key lies in how to control it."

"If we can take good thoughts as the basis and wisdom as the guide, the seven emotions and six desires can become the driving force for our growth."

“We can be grateful because of joy, righteous because of anger, change because of worry, compassion because of sadness, cautious because of fear, and sharp because of shock.”

“The six desires can also guide us to pursue beauty, but we should not indulge in excessive desires.”

"Our journey to obtain the scriptures is also about learning to balance the seven emotions and six desires through practice."

“Don’t be controlled by desires, and don’t suppress human instincts.”

“With the wisdom of Buddhism, let the seven emotions and six desires become our helpers, rather than obstacles, in achieving good results and saving all sentient beings.”

Qin Shihuang, Li Shimin and Zhu Yuanzhang nodded repeatedly after listening.

"As expected of a holy monk, you look at things differently."

Zhu Yuanzhang gave Tang Seng a thumbs up.

Ye Jiangnan also agreed with what Tang Seng said.

Sun Wukong smiled and said:

"Master is Master!"

"That makes a lot of sense!"

Zhu Bajie smiled innocently and said:
"Hey, Master, does that mean I can have lust?"

Tang Monk: “???”

Sun Wukong: "???"

Sha Seng: "???"

Ye Jiangnan: “…”

Qin Shi Huang and his three companions: "..."

Zhu Bajie felt everyone's gaze and lowered his head in embarrassment.

"Hey, don't look at me like that. I'm just following Master's instructions."

Sun Wukong shook his head speechlessly at Zhu Bajie, then said to Ye Jiangnan:
"Goddess, don't worry about this fat pig. Just teach me how to use this motorboat!"

"it is good!"

Ye Jiangnan nodded. …

On the way back to heaven.

Nezha rode on the Wind Fire Wheel and stopped Erlang Shen Yang Jian.

"Yang Jian!"

Nezha stood in front of Yang Jian, pointing the flaming spear in his hand at him.

"Nezha, what are you going to do?"

Yang Jian asked with a frown.

Nezha snorted coldly and said:
"What happened during the time I was in solitary confinement?"

"What did Tang Seng mean by those words just now?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Jian raised his lips slightly and said:
"you ask me?"

"You don't understand, or you just don't know?"

Yang Jian didn't believe that Nezha didn't know about Tang Monk's journey to the West.

When Tang Monk and his disciples went to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures, all the gods and Buddhas in Heaven and the West knew about it.

Nezha is the son of Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King.

His elder brother, Jinzha, served beside the Buddha.

His second brother, Mu Zha, was a practitioner named Hui'an who served beside Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva.

How could he not know the secret of Tang Monk and his disciples’ journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures?
However, Nezha really didn't know.

What he knew was just the surface.

Moreover, he had been imprisoned for so many years, and he didn't care much about the affairs of Heaven, so how could he know so much?
His own father, Tota-Bearing Heavenly King, and his two elder brothers never told him.

"I understand!"

Nezha nodded and said.

"But I don't understand why those people's mounts and the like would come down to earth to cause trouble in the world?"

"It's not that easy for us gods to come down to earth!"

"Those mounts came down to earth so easily?"

Nezha expressed his doubts.

The gods in heaven need to ask the Jade Emperor for permission before they can come down to earth.

Only after getting the approval of the Jade Emperor and the imperial edict to descend to the mortal world can one go down to the mortal world.

Not only that, there are time regulations and magical power restrictions for descending to the mortal world.

The time you spend on earth cannot be too long, you cannot stay in the human world for a long time, and you cannot show mercy to others in the human world.

Also, you cannot use your magical powers easily in the human world, and you cannot use your magical powers to harm mortals.

It can only be used if the mortal himself is a heinous criminal or a bad person.

In addition, there are many restrictions.

The gods have so many restrictions, wouldn’t there be even more restrictions for mounts when they come down to earth?

But from what Tang Seng and others said before, Nezha heard something wrong.

It seems that these mounts were sent down to earth intentionally by the gods in heaven.

This also includes the Jade Emperor turning a blind eye.

Otherwise, if these mounts wanted to come down to earth, they might not even be able to get out of the South Gate of Heaven.

Yang Jian stared into Nezha's eyes, trying to see whether Nezha really didn't know or was pretending not to know.

But Yang Jian could see from Nezha's eyes that Nezha really seemed to have no idea.

"If you don't understand something, ask someone who does, don't ask me!"

After saying that, Yang Jian walked around Nezha and prepared to leave.

"Hey……"

Nezha wanted to call out to Yang Jian, but Yang Jian's flying speed increased a lot and he disappeared from his sight in the blink of an eye.

"Really? If you know something, why don't you just tell me directly?"

"What riddles are you playing?"

Nezha complained unhappily.

Since Yang Jian is unwilling to say it, he can just find someone to ask himself.

But who should I ask?

Nezha was thinking in his mind that he could ask someone for the answer.

But after thinking for a long time, I still couldn't think of a suitable candidate.

He has always been a loner in heaven and has never had any friends.

As for his father, he has two older brothers.

Nezha knew that if he asked, he would definitely not get an answer.

If they wanted to talk, they would have told me long ago.

Instead, if I didn't say anything, I wouldn't be unclear about the specific situation until now.

After thinking about it, there is really no one Nezha can ask.

"Humph!"

"I see!"

Nezha's eyes lit up and he thought of a suitable candidate.

He put away his flaming spear and flew down to the netherworld.

Others won’t tell me, but at least Sun Wukong and the others will tell me, right?

Anyway, I have come out of heaven now, so there is no rush to go back.

It can even be said that it is okay not to go back.

I'm tired of staying in heaven. It's boring.

And after returning, he would be put in solitary confinement.

Why go back by yourself?

I finally got out, so I'll stay here for a few more days.

……

the other side.

Putuo Luojia Mountain in the South China Sea.

Guanyin Bodhisattva is walking slowly in the bamboo forest.

Mu Zha, Dragon Girl, Shancai Tongzi and Red Boy were not with her.

"It's really weird."

"I was just about to check on the progress of Nezha and Yang Jian, how did they get discovered?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva murmured.

She wanted to use her magic power to check the situation at that time.

But before he could check, he felt like someone was staring at him.

She quickly put away her magic power and stopped spying, as if nothing had happened.

"Could it be him?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva thought of Ye Jiangnan.

Last time, he felt that Ye Jiangnan was very "weird" and he couldn't see through Ye Jiangnan at all.

Just like the way she looked at Buddha, she was very mysterious.

"It should be him."

"Otherwise, according to the past, I have spied on Tang Seng and his men without being noticed."

"This time it just happened to be discovered."

Guanyin Bodhisattva herself came up with a more reasonable explanation.

This is the only reason that can explain why I was discovered immediately when I was snooping before.

"I wonder how Yang Jian and Nezha are doing."

"There shouldn't be any problem..."

Guanyin Bodhisattva felt a little worried.

If it was just Sun Wukong alone, she wouldn't be so worried.

But now there is another Ye Jiangnan, whom even she herself cannot see through.

Thinking of this, Guanyin Bodhisattva left the Purple Bamboo Forest and went to find Mu Zha.

“Greetings to the Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara!”

When Mu Zha saw Guanyin Bodhisattva, he first bowed.

"Mu Zha, go to the Heavenly Palace again and ask Erlang Shen and your brother Nezha."

"Ask them how things are going."

Guanyin Bodhisattva said.

"Yes! I will follow the instructions of Bodhisattva Guanyin!"

Mu Zha responded and rode away from Luojia Mountain on a cloud.

When he arrived at the Heavenly Palace, Ye Jiangnan was still teaching Sun Wukong how to use a motorboat.

Sun Wukong studied for a long time but just couldn't learn it.

So, Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng were asked to try it again.

But Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng were completely unable to learn how to do this, and they fell off the motorboat several times in a row.

Finally, it was Tang Seng, who had been silent, who volunteered to give it a try.

Tang Seng learned very quickly.

Ye Jiangnan taught him for half an hour, and Tang Seng had already mastered the skill of driving a motorboat.

"Master, slow down!"

Sun Wukong looked at Tang Seng who was driving a motorboat on the river and reminded him worriedly.

"I'm fine!"

Tang Seng turned around and waved to Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong: "..."

Zhu Bajie was shocked and said:

"I didn't expect that our master is really smart."

"We have studied for so long, but we still haven't learned it."

"He's good, he'll be open in half an hour!"

"And it's done with one hand!"

Sha Monk smiled and said:
"Second Brother, if Master is not smart at night, how can he be our Master?"

When Zhu Bajie heard this, he said:
"That's true!"

Qin Shihuang and the other two looked at Tang Seng galloping on the river, and then the three of them looked at each other.

The three of them saw a burning passion in each other's eyes.

nice one!
This motorboat is really a good thing!

This is simply a powerful weapon for marching and fighting, okay?
air.

Nezha was lying on a cloud, looking down at Ye Jiangnan and others on the ground.

"What it is?"

"very strange!"

"It looks like a boat, but it's not a boat."

"Besides, the boat doesn't seem to be going that fast!"

Nezha muttered.

"Looking at Tang Seng and his companions, it doesn't look like they won't go to obtain the scriptures!"

"Besides, why are they all so happy?"

"Hey……"

Nezha has been lying here for quite a while.

It has been here since Ye Jiangnan taught Sun Wukong how to ride a jet ski.

He had been thinking about asking for clarification right away.

But when I thought about it, I just had a fight, and it was a bit embarrassing to go and ask someone so soon.

So Nezha hid on the cloud and secretly looked at them first.

When it’s almost done, go down and ask yourself.

Nezha thought he was hiding very well, but Sun Wukong, who was always sensitive, had actually discovered him long ago.

However, since he didn't feel any hostility from Nezha, and seeing Nezha lying in the clouds and peeking, he ignored him.

Ye Jiangnan also discovered Nezha.

From time to time, he glanced at Nezha who was lying in the clouds, and was very curious about why he came back and hid in the clouds.

"Goku!"

Ye Jiangnan called over Sun Wukong, who was worried about his master and kept staring at Tang Seng.

"My Lord, what do you want me to do?"

Sun Wukong asked curiously.

Ye Jiangnan didn't say anything, but winked at Sun Wukong, indicating that Sun Wukong should look up at the "strange" cloud in the cloudless sky.

Sun Wukong looked over, then looked away.

"My Lord, I have already discovered him."

Sun Wukong whispered.

"Hehe, I don't think he has any bad intentions, so I didn't care."

Ye Jiangnan nodded slightly.

"If you want to do something in the future, Nezha is a good choice."

Ye Jiangnan reminded Sun Wukong.

"Oh? No way? He is..."

Sun Wukong didn't finish his words.

His meaning was very simple, that is, Nezha is the son of Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King.

Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, not only has a close relationship with the Heavenly Palace, but also has a very close relationship with the Western Heaven.

The two sons, Jinzha and Muzha are currently in the Western Paradise.

And he, Li Jing, is the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King of the Heavenly Palace.

Nezha is the Great God of the Three Altars and Sea Assemblies appointed by the Heavenly Court.

Win over Nezha...

I'm afraid not.
