Chapter 436 Invitation to be a guest

The Heavenly Court army was defeated and fled to Fengtou Mountain.

The prestige of the Wan Yao Kingdom spread throughout the Three Realms in an instant.

The arrest of Nezha, the great god of the Santan Haihui, also shocked the Three Realms.

The Jade Emperor was furious, and invited the Tathagata Buddha to move to the Lingxiao Palace to discuss major issues.

A big storm is brewing.

However, Tang Seng and his disciples, who stopped and stopped on the westbound road, were almost reaching their destination.

However, this time, their calamity was several calamities short.

Lu Fengqiu had done the calculations. Originally, according to the number of catastrophes in the journey to the west in this world, the Tang monk and his disciples would not have arrived near the Daleiyin Temple so quickly.

However, because of his appearance, Tang Seng and his disciples messed up the greatest catastrophe on the Westward Journey, and made Tang Seng and his disciples less experienced a few catastrophes.

The most important thing is that the catastrophe of Wan Yao's conversion is missing.

The main character of Wan Yao Wei is naturally the Wan Yao Queen.

Lu Fengqiu's self will still leave this world in the future.

The Demon Queen and the Brachio are here to stay.

Therefore, Lu Fengqiu wanted to make this world a little purer.

Now, the soldiers and horses of the Heavenly Court confronted the Wan Yao Kingdom.

Lu Fengqiu could guess what the Jade Emperor was thinking.

He also knew that the Jade Emperor would definitely join forces with Tathagata to start a war against the Wan Yao Kingdom.

However, Lu Fengqiu was not worried at all, even though he just awakened his own self, not his body came to this world.

But as long as his true nature remains intact, there is no immortal Buddha in this world who can do nothing to win him.

Besides, he also has the White Lotus of the Pure World.

The white lotus karma fire, which burns everything, is no worse than the red lotus karma fire.

Lu Fengqiu's plan is very simple, that is to make Wan Yao from Wan Yao Kingdom into real immortals.

He doesn't want to seize control of this world, he just wants to do an experiment in this world.

Now, he came to find Tang Seng and his apprentice not only to solve the trouble for the Wan Yao Queen, but also to make up for the catastrophe of Tang Seng and his apprentice.

……

At this time, monk Tang and his disciples had already left Zhu Ziguo for several days.

When he was in Zhu Ziguo, Sun Wukong wore the Zijin Bell. He was supposed to be controlled by the Zijin Bell, but because Lu Fengqiu planted a seed of self-knowledge in him, he was not controlled by the Zijin Bell, but was very peaceful. Give the Zijin Bell to Guanyin.

Along the way, they didn't encounter any accidents again, and they were almost within the range of Daleiyin Temple.

At this time, Lu Fengqiu and the Wan Yao Queen appeared in front of Tang Seng and his disciples.

The sudden appearance of Lu Fengqiu and the Wan Yao Queen still surprised Tang Seng and his disciples.

However, compared to before, Tang Seng and his disciples now have no ill intentions towards Lu Fengqiu and the Wan Yao Queen.

Especially Sun Wukong went to Ten Thousand Monsters Country to live for a few days, saw everything in Qingyun Mountain, and got enlightened by Lu Fengqiu, he has become very calm.

What Sun Wukong wants to do most now is to arrive at Daleiyin Temple as soon as possible, and then obtain the Mahayana scriptures, and escort Tang Seng back to the Tang Dynasty.

He can also roam the Three Realms with peace of mind, and he can go wherever he wants.

When Tang Seng saw Lu Fengqiu and the Queen of Ten Thousand Demons appearing, he was still so polite. He clasped his hands together and said to them, "Amitabha, why did the arm-armed ape benefactor and Yungu benefactor appear here?"

Zhu Bajie didn't recognize his life, he also stepped forward and said: "Yes, yes, didn't you go back to Wan Yao Kingdom?"

Sun Wukong said: "Ah, gibbon monkey, don't you want to tell me that you are taking your wife on a tour of the mountains and rivers?"

Zhu Bajie looked envious, and said, "I think it's true."

Drifting came up to Zhu Bajie and said, "Second Senior Brother, when you become a Buddha, you will be able to swim with Chang'e's arms."

Zhu Bajie glared at Sand Monk angrily, and said, "Show your head!"

Sand Monk scratched his head, puzzled, and said, "Second Senior Brother, you said it before. You said that when you become a Buddha, you will swim with Chang'e."

At this moment, Lu Fengqiu led Wan Yao Queen by the hand, and said to Tang Seng, "Sanzang, I'm here for you."

Tang Seng's face was still calm, and he said: "The benefactor came to look for the poor monk, what's the matter?"

Lu Fengqiu said: "Sanzang, you are not far from Daleiyin Temple."

When Tang Seng heard this, his face showed a bit of joy, and he said, "Is it true that the arm-armed ape benefactor is true?"

Lu Fengqiu nodded and said, "If you continue to move forward, you will arrive at Daleiyin Temple in less than three days."

Upon hearing this, Tang Seng clasped his hands together and said devoutly, "Amitabha, thank you, the Armed Ape, for coming all the way to inform the poor monk."

Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Drifting were also very happy when they heard the news.

Sun Wukong said: "It's great to finally arrive at Daleiyin Temple!"

Zhu Bajie laughed and said, "My old pig is going to become a Buddha!"

"Old Sha, are you happy?"

Drifting said: "Second senior brother, I am also very happy!"

At this time, Lu Fengqiu said: "Although the Daleiyin Temple is very close to you, you have not yet completed the ninety-nine kalpas. Even if you go to the Daleiyin Temple, you will not be able to obtain the Mahayana scriptures."

When Tang Seng heard this, the joy on his face faded a lot.

He looked at Lu Fengqiu, and said: "The arm-armed ape benefactor means that there is still disaster waiting for the poor monk and apprentice?"

Lu Fengqiu nodded, and said: "This calamity originally existed, but because of my intervention, this calamity is gone."

Tang Seng heard the words and said, "Then what should we do?"

Sun Wukong looked at Lu Fengqiu, he walked over and said: "Ah, gibbon monkey, don't be a fool, I know you must have something in your words."

Lu Fengqiu said with a smile: "Ninety-nine kalpas are not enough, the Tathagata will not pass on the scriptures to you master and apprentice."

"If you want to become a Buddha, you must go through the ninety-nine calamities."

Zhu Bajie screamed: "Ah, it's so miserable, what should I do?"

"Brother Monkey, why don't you find a few monsters to hijack Master for a while, and then we can rescue Master, that's all right."

Sun Wukong looked at Zhu Bajie and said, "Fat pig, how can you do things like this."

Tang Seng said: "Since the poor monk set foot on the road to the west, he has only been seeking the Mahayana scriptures."

"Right now, the Daleiyin Temple is right in front of us, so we must go there no matter what."

"Although the calamity of ninety-nine is not yet complete, the Buddha is merciful, so he shouldn't embarrass the poor monk and his disciples because of this."

Lu Fengqiu smiled, and said: "Sanzang, there is a definite number for learning scriptures, and this cannot be changed by the Tathagata."

"Ninety-nine catastrophes must be completed, this is the destiny of heaven."

Tang Seng said: "The arm-armed ape benefactor, is there any good way?"

Lu Fengqiu said: "I came here to solve this problem for you."

Tang Seng asked suspiciously, "Oh? How does the arm-armed ape benefactor want to help the poor monk?"

Lu Fengqiu said: "I would like to invite the four of you, master and apprentice, to visit Wan Yao Country."

"What? Visiting the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom?"

When Zhu Bajie heard this, he was startled. He ran to Tang Seng's side and whispered, "Master, you have to think twice. The Wanyao Kingdom is not a good place, it's full of monsters."

"If you go to the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom, you will be like a sheep among wolves."

Tang Seng also frowned slightly, he wasn't worried that there would be monsters in the Myriad Monster Kingdom, he was afraid that monsters would eat him.

He was just worried that if he went to Wanyao Country, he would be farther away from Daleiyin Temple, and if he delayed the time to learn scriptures, it would be bad.

Sun Wukong on the side looked at Lu Fengqiu suspiciously, and said, "Hey, gibbon monkey, what the hell are you doing?"

"You invited our senior brothers and master to visit Wan Yao Country, is there some kind of conspiracy?"

Lu Fengqiu smiled and said: "What kind of conspiracy can I have? If I am not good to you master and apprentice, I have already taken care of you master and apprentice as early as in Xiaoleiyin Temple."

"Why bother talking to you here."

Sun Wukong said: "Then why did you invite us to the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom as guests? Could it be that you are kind enough to help us complete the ninety-nine disasters?"

Lu Fengqiu said: "Why, can't it?"

"Wukong, don't forget what I said to you when you were on Qingyun Mountain."

Sun Wukong heard this, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "Okay, you won."

Lu Fengqiu smiled and said: "Actually, I took you away to ask you to do me a small favor."

Monkey King asked: "What's the matter?"

Lu Fengqiu let it go, and said: "Don't worry, you will know when you arrive in Wan Yao Kingdom."

Lu Fengqiu looked at Tang Seng and said, "Sanzang, can we leave?"

Hearing this, Tang Seng clasped his hands together and said, "In this case, then the poor monk will go with the benefactor."

Lu Fengqiu nodded slightly, and said: "The number of catastrophes is determined by the sky, but how the number of catastrophes change is determined by people."

"Don't worry, I have no malice towards you."

Hearing this, Tang Seng said with a humble smile on his face, "Bong-armed ape benefactor, you don't need to explain more, the poor monk knows that you have no malice towards the poor monk."

Lu Fengqiu nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, let's go."

After the words were finished, Lu Fengqiu waved his hand and left the place with Tang Seng and his disciples.

In just a blink of an eye, Lu Fengqiu brought Tang Seng and his disciples to the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons.

……

Tang Monk and his disciples were extremely surprised by the fairyland atmosphere on Qingyun Mountain.

Monkey King has seen it before, and now he looks familiar.

Tang Seng praised: "It is unexpected that the dojo of the arm-armed ape benefactor has such a fairy spirit."

"The benefactor is really a true immortal who has attained the Tao."

Zhu Bajie was dumbfounded, and said, "This is the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons?"

"The Wan Yao Kingdom is a place where demons gather. How come there is no monster aura at all, but it is surrounded by immortal aura, even compared to the Heavenly Court."

"Gibbon Monkey, I, Lao Zhu, really admire your skills."

Drifting looked like an idiot, and said: "Wow, this place is so beautiful!"

Sun Wukong crossed his arms and made a normal look to me.

At this moment, a ray of divine light descended, but the succubus appeared not far away.

Seeing the Dream Demon appearing, Zhu Bajie and Drifting hurriedly moved back a few steps.

Zhu Bajie said: "Hey, hey, isn't this some kind of succubus?"

Sun Wukong said with a look of disdain: "Fat pig, why are you trembling, are you afraid that he will not succeed in taking Master's idea?"

I saw the Dream Demon stepped forward, bowed towards Lu Fengqiu, and said: "My lord, the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth elders have been on standby at Fengtou Mountain according to your instructions. As soon as the heavenly army shows up, we will immediately notify you." Insane."

Lu Fengqiu nodded slightly, gave a soft "hmm", and then said: "Okay, don't come to me these few days, all battles on the front line are up to you to decide."

"I still say the same thing, as long as the army of Heavenly Court doesn't hit Qingyun Mountain, I won't make a move."

"This battle will be a battle for you to make a name for yourself."

"It's not just Niu Dingtian who wants to be famous in the Three Realms, but each of you wants to make a name for yourself."

Upon hearing this, the Dream Demon immediately bowed and said, "Please don't worry, Your Majesty, we will definitely do our best to make our reputation as Qingyun Taoist, and we will definitely not fall into the majesty of your Majesty."

"Well~~~ let's go down."

Lu Fengqiu let out a "hmm".

The Dream Demon followed the sound and left without even looking at Tang Seng and his disciples.

The succubus is no longer what it used to be, he knows what to ask and what not to ask.

In the past, he wanted to eat Tang's monk meat because he thought that Tang's monk's meat could make him immortal.

But now, he doesn't need to eat Tang's monk meat to live forever.

What's more, the king has already said it.

The human race is the darling of heaven and earth. Although cannibalism can also increase a little bit of deeds, the disadvantages are far greater than the benefits.

If you want to become a fairy, you have to adapt to this.

The Dream Demon didn't know that this was just a lie fabricated by Lu Fengqiu. Although cannibalism has disadvantages, it won't affect immortality.

In this world, as long as you enter the eyes of the immortals and Buddhas in the heavenly court and the Buddhist world, even if you eat people, you can also become immortals and Buddhas.

The most typical example is Drifting Monk, who ate all of Tang Seng's first nine lives.

The man-eating demon Sand Monk strung together the skulls of Tang Monk's former ninth life and wore them around his neck, making him look like a golden arhat.

Of course, even if the Dream Demon and all the monsters in the Wan Yao Kingdom knew that this was a lie, they would obey without hesitation, because only under Lu Fengqiu's teaching, could they have the chance to obtain real longevity.

Seeing that the succubus turned a blind eye to them, Tang Seng and his disciples secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Especially Zhu Bajie, he has always been suspicious of Wan Yao Kingdom.

I was afraid that Tang Seng would be swallowed alive by monsters when he came to the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters.

Now it seems that he is overthinking.

The arm-armed ape is indeed different, it is obedient to the monsters in the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom, even a big monster like the Dream Demon is obedient and obedient.

At this time, Sun Wukong asked Lu Fengqiu: "Ah, the arm-armed ape, what did you and the dreamer talk about just now about the army of the heavenly court? Could it be that there was a conflict between the heavenly court and the kingdom of ten thousand demons?"

Lu Fengqiu nodded and said: "That's true. Just before you came to the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom, the [-] troops from the Heavenly Court just withdrew."

When Tang Seng and his disciples heard this, they all expressed surprise on their faces.

Tang Seng said: "The arm-armed ape benefactor, why did the Heavenly Court send a large army to attack the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons?"

Zhu Bajie said from the side: "Oh, master, you don't know about this. Heavenly Court has always regarded the Wanyao Kingdom as a thorn in its side. It is normal for the Jade Emperor to send an army to encircle and suppress the Wanyao Kingdom."

Drifting also said: "That's right, that's right. Since ancient times, immortals and demons have been at odds, and being a monster is very miserable."

Sun Wukong said: "How about it, gibbon monkey, do you need my help?"

Lu Fengqiu smiled and said, "How do you want to help me?"

"Help me in the battle, to fight the soldiers and horses of the Heavenly Court?"

Sun Wukong coughed twice, a little embarrassed, and said: "It's not good to fight too much. My grandson has many friends in Heavenly Court. I can go and find out the news for you."

"Go and ask what's going on, and see if there is any way to let the Jade Emperor make an order to stop the Heavenly Court from attacking the Wan Yao Kingdom."

Lu Fengqiu looked at Monkey King with a faint smile, and said, "Wukong, this is the little favor I want you to do me."

Sun Wukong said: "You have helped my grandson so much, so it is my duty to help you."

Lu Fengqiu said with a smile: "You don't need to be a lobbyist, but I need you to go to the Heavenly Court to rescue soldiers."

Sun Wukong was surprised and said: "Move the rescuers? What kind of rescuers?"

Lu Fengqiu said: "Now, your master and apprentice are going through calamities. I have captured both your master and younger brother to Wan Yao Kingdom. Shouldn't you go to the Immortal Buddha to help rescue them?"

Sun Wukong slapped his head and said, "Yes, yes, you reminded me so rightly."

"My grandson has forgotten about this."

"Then I will go to the Heavenly Court and find the Jade Emperor to move the rescuers."

Lu Fengqiu said: "Wait, you met the Jade Emperor, do you know what to say?"

Sun Wukong chuckled and said, "Of course I know, of course how miserable it is."

Lu Fengqiu clasped his hands behind his back, nodded slightly, and said, "That's right, the worse it must be, the better. It's best for the Jade Emperor to send more people."

"By the way, the Tathagata is also in the Heavenly Court now. You should take it easy when you see him, and don't accidentally reveal the truth."

Monkey King is still very smart, knowing that Lu Fengqiu wants him to act in a play.

"Don't worry, my grandson still has some experience in this regard."

After all, Sun Wukong looked at Tang Seng and said: "Master, you are so lucky to rest here for a few days, I will go to the Heavenly Court to rescue soldiers, and when we pass this catastrophe, we can go to Daleiyin Temple to get the Mahayana scriptures." gone."

Hearing this, Tang Seng clasped his hands together and said, "Wukong, be careful all the way."

……

Monkey King left, and went to Heaven to ask the Jade Emperor for help with the intention of acting.

Journey to the West was originally a face-saving project, and it can only be regarded as a small calamity in the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism.

It's just that this world has magnified the calamity of Journey to the West.

Lu Fengqiu has always guessed that this world was evolved by Tathagata or a certain Buddha of Buddhism, purely for the purpose of absorbing Buddhists and strengthening the influence of Buddhism.

The answer should be revealed soon.

As long as the Jade Emperor and Tathagata Buddha show up at the same time, he should be able to see clearly.

The time he stayed in this world was neither long nor short. The incarnation of the arm-armed ape was just one of his countless incarnations. He only chose to experience different lives and look at problems from different angles. Awaken the self in this world.

Transforming the Ten Thousand Monsters Country is just a matter of convenience.

When Journey to the West is over, a little bit of his true nature should return to his body.

Monkey King went to Heaven, but Tang Seng wasn't worried at all.

He and Lu Fengqiu were old acquaintances.

This trip was mutually beneficial for everyone, Lu Fengqiu accomplished ninety-nine catastrophes for them, and they helped Lu Fengqiu gain a wave of hatred.

Let the Jade Emperor send troops to attack Wan Yao Kingdom again as soon as possible.

Lu Fengqiu's meaning is very clear, that is, he wants to use the Heavenly Court's Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Future to train the disciples of Qingyun Dojo.

When the beating is almost over, the Jade Emperor and Tathagata will naturally come forward to find him.

At that time, he will be able to see if the Jade Emperor and Tathagata are wearing a pair of pants.

……

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

Zhu Bajie and Sha Monk ate and drank well in Qingyun Mountain, and lived happily.

Lu Fengqiu and Tang Seng were discussing Buddhism.

Lu Fengqiu said: "I don't reject cause and effect. In Buddhism, the practice of giving, keeping precepts, patience, diligence, meditation, prajna, and the six paramitas are all based on the deep belief in cause and effect, but they are different from fate."

"What I reject is fate, a fate in which everything is preordained."
