Journey to the West: Asking the Heavens

Chapter 718

Heavenly Court, Yaochi.

In the past, the quiet and desolate place of heaven is very different today, but you can see that in the fairyland, there is laughter and laughter, countless gods and demons are sitting in it, the table is full of delicacies, celestial wine and spiritual fruits, and there are celestial beings in the center of the place. Chang'e dancing!
This is the peach feast held by the queen mother again after the monkey grandson was suppressed, but there was not a single peach in the peach feast this time, because the monkey ate up all the larger peaches in the peach garden, and the rest Some crooked melons and split dates, although they still have some effect, but with the Queen Mother's emphasis on her own face, how can this kind of flat peach be served on the table?

It's not just flat peaches. When the flat peach banquet was held in the past, the heavyweights of Buddhism and Taoism, such as Liuyutiandi, Wufangwulao, etc., came very few, and only a queen mother sat on the main seat. , even the Jade Emperor never showed up!

It should be noted that since the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother took charge of the Heavenly Court, the two have joined hands to attend the peach feast, and the Jade Emperor has never been absent once!
It's not just that the Jade Emperor didn't come, today's Pantao Festival, also known as the Antian Conference, is a banquet for a group of gods and demons who came forward when rewarding monkeys to disrupt the heavens. The Tathagata Buddha of the monkey did not show up from the beginning to the end. In the entire Buddhist sect, only a white-clothed Guanyin came, holding a clean bottle and sitting under the head of the Queen Mother, with an absent-minded look on his face.

It's no wonder that there are so few great talents in this Pantao Conference. Compared with the great purple energy, the Pantao Banquet is nothing. At this moment, except for the Taoist ancestor who is giving a lecture in the Zixiao Palace, no matter what the opportunity, there is no way for all the great powers in front of the Tushita Palace to come together. Down to earth!
The queen mother was sitting on the main seat, her expression was a bit smug. Although this fairyland is lively, but the people who come here are all low-level gods and demons. Compared with the grand scene in previous years, it is not a star and a half, and there are not many people who are qualified for her to entertain. Yes, she naturally couldn't arouse any interest.

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva also felt the same way. Although she is not as talented as Duobao Tathagata, she is also a quasi-sage. At this moment, her heart is all attached to the majestic purple energy. , she is also responsible for the overall responsibility of the Westward Journey to learn Buddhist scriptures, but she will not come here.

"Hongmeng Ziqi, if it is really so easy to comprehend, it won't be quiet until now." The Queen Mother said to herself with some dissatisfaction.

Wherever the Lingguan Xian'e who served on the left and right dared to answer her words, they all lowered their heads and looked down, as if they had never heard of her.

In the heaven and earth, there is no one who does not know the temper of this queen mother. She is the most respectful of rules and regulations on weekdays, and her subordinates are extremely strict. If there is even a slight mistake, it will be dealt with severely and severely, ranging from reincarnation to death. Taiwan walk around!
Avalokitesvara was also bored, when she saw the Queen Mother talking, she smiled and echoed: "Your Majesty's words are very true, even the Peacock Daming King and Bodhisattva have retreated from the Tushita Palace, which shows the difficulty of this opportunity, but with His Majesty's identity Luck, maybe it is a predestined person."

"A person with predestined relationship? He just has no eyesight. If he thinks about it seriously, he will know why Daozu and his old man didn't promise the position of emperor of heaven to a saint. He has no chance at all with this majestic purple energy." !” The Queen Mother said disdainfully.

The authorities are confused by the onlookers, the Jade Emperor has been oppressed by the sage for so many years, the resentment in his heart is hard to calm down, he only wants to become a saint so as to get rid of the current situation, while the Queen Mother spends all day in the fairyland, and instead jumps out of the game, see Be clear.Of course, maybe it wasn't that the Jade Emperor couldn't see clearly, but that he could see clearly, but he didn't want to believe it. Anyone who faced such a great opportunity as the Primordial Purple Qi would want to take a chance.

Avalokitesvara smiled again, but didn't answer the question, but picked up the wine glass in front of the table, and said: "The journey of cultivation is all God's will, and the Taoist ancestor's intentions are beyond our guess. Madam, today is always suppressed by the heavenly court." On the big day of the monster monkey, the poor monk will offer you a toast, congratulations for your empress, and congratulations for your majesty!"

"Happy day?"

The queen mother raised her eyebrows slightly, and there was clearly disapproval in her eyes, but she didn't say anything, she just raised the wine cup and said, "Master Guanyin please!"

After finishing speaking, he covered his face with his sleeve and drank it all in one gulp.Seeing this, Guanyin also drank the wine in the cup.

Today's Peach Banquet is called the Antian Conference, but in fact it is all about celebrating Buddhism. After all, the monkeys were suppressed under Wuzhi Mountain, and it was the prestige of Buddhism that increased, while the stepping stones were made by the Heavenly Court. A little dissatisfied.

"Give it to me again, and I will pay a respect to Master Guanyin." The Queen Mother ordered.

A god and demon standing beside him responded, raised the jug, and wanted to pour wine for the Queen Mother.However, at this moment, the Guanyin master smiled, stretched out his hand and tapped lightly!
"Ouch!"

The demon pouring wine felt his hand slipped, and one of them didn't hold it tightly. The jug fell to the ground with a bang, and the place where it landed was the wine cup of the Queen Mother!

The wine cup was thrown into the air all of a sudden, and fell to the ground with a 'pop', but it shattered on the spot, and the fragments flew all over the place!
Although this movement was slight, the gods and demons around the Queen Mother were silent, too frightened to make a sound. The silence quickly spread to the whole audience, and in the blink of an eye, Yaochi, which was so noisy just now, suddenly became quiet. !

Everyone looked up at the main seat, wanting to understand what happened, but what caught their eyes was the angry face of the Queen Mother!
"Bold!" The Queen Mother slapped the table and snapped.

The demon pouring wine had already been frightened. Hearing the Queen Mother's scolding, he couldn't help trembling all over his body, his knees softened, and he knelt down on the ground with a plop, saying: "My lady, please forgive my life, my lady, please forgive me. Hand slippery, please forgive Xiaoxian for once!"

This god and demon is also a majestic seven-foot-tall man. With his cultivation base, he has stepped into the heavenly fairy. If he is placed in the lower realm, he can be regarded as a great demon king who can gather together, but at this moment, he is like a chicken waiting to be killed. , trembling from head to toe, where is the aura of a half-celestial being?
"What a slippery hand, rolling the curtain, do you know what the wine cup you smashed is?" asked the Queen Mother in a cold voice.

"Xiao...Xiaoxian doesn't know..." The god demon replied with a trembling tone.

"I don't know, but today I will tell you that this wine cup is a glazed cup that the emperor of Dongyue collected the spirit stones of the five mountains and integrated the spiritual power of the stars, and took thousands of years to create for the palace. Shen Bian smashed it to pieces, if I meet the Emperor Dongyue in the future, how can I ask this palace to explain to him?!"

The Queen Mother glanced vaguely at Guanyin Bodhisattva, then snorted coldly, and said, "Come here, bring the roller blind to the Immortal Execution Platform, remove the bones of the immortals, enter the realm of animals, and never escape!"

The so-called removal of the immortal bone is to completely abolish mana, and to enter the animal realm and never escape is to make this rolling curtain general sink forever. This kind of punishment is far worse than killing him for a high-ranking god. It scares him even more!
The complexion of the rolling shutter general changed, he kowtowed his head one after another on the ground in a panic, begging for mercy incessantly: "Ma'am, please forgive me, please please, please forgive me..."

However, the queen mother was completely indifferent, and just watched the heavenly soldiers and generals enter the palace with cold eyes. Just when the general was almost desperate, Guanyin Bodhisattva suddenly said, "Young lady, wait a moment!"

"Huh? Master Guanyin has something to say? But are you dissatisfied with my treatment?" The Queen Mother said in an extremely unhappy tone.

"Amitabha, my lady was joking, the poor monk is a stranger, how dare he talk about the affairs of heaven."

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva shouted the Buddha's name, bowed his head and saluted, but he stood up, looked at the rolling curtain general a little bit unbearably, and said: "However, today is the day of great joy for the feast of peaches in the heavenly court. It is inevitable that the empress will be punished so severely. It hurt the atmosphere of today's feast, and besides, the curtain-rolling general has served the empress for many years and has worked hard, and I hope that the empress will see the poor monk's face and give him a light sentence."

Although the rolling shutter general couldn't believe that the ignorant Guanyin would intercede for him, he still looked at the Queen Mother expectantly, hoping to get a more lenient treatment and sinking into the animal world forever. This is really true for him. A little too cruel.

The Queen Mother originally sang with Guanyin Bodhisattva, how could she not give Guanyin face at this time, she nodded immediately, and said: "What Guanyin said is reasonable, roll up the curtain, for Guanyin's sake, I will forgive you once, But the crime of death can be avoided, but the crime of living cannot be escaped, come here, demote him to the mortal world, and suffer the pain of thousands of swords piercing his heart every seven days, so that he can remember today's lesson firmly!"

Hearing that he was demoted to the mortal world, General Rolling Curtain couldn't help but feel happy, but his joy has not yet passed, and when he heard the following sentence of suffering the pain of being pierced by thousands of swords once in seven days, he couldn't help but feel a chill all over his body.

But before he begged for mercy again, the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals serving him directly stunned him, then dragged him out of Yaochi, went straight to the South Heaven Gate, and knocked him down to the Lower Realm.

Seeing this scene, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva shouted the Buddha's chant again, and said to the Queen Mother, "Thank you for your grace."

The queen mother said angrily: "It's just fulfilling the original agreement, why should you thank me, but my glazed cup is broken after all, what do you have to pay for it?"

"The poor monk has nothing to grow, only a few purple bamboo shoots grown in the purple bamboo grove in the ashram can be used on the table. Later, Hui An will send it to the empress, and I hope the empress will not dislike it." Guanyin replied.

The purple bamboo forest is the dojo of Avalokitesvara, and also a blessed place in the South China Sea. This piece of purple bamboo grove has been influenced by the Buddhist teachings of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva every day. The effect is even better.

"That purple bamboo shoot of yours is considered a rarity, but what do you want to do with the remaining one?" the queen mother asked, but her eyes drifted to a burly golden armored general below.

That golden-armored god general has thick eyebrows and big eyes, straight facial features, and a beard growing under his chin, which adds a bit of might, and is better than the appearance of other heavenly generals present.At this moment, he was drinking and bragging with the general beside him, while staring at the dancing Xian'e with squinting eyes!
Avalokitesvara also looked towards the golden armored general, she said: "Don't worry about it, Madam, I will find out after today's peach feast."

"Just don't go too far." The Queen Mother said calmly.

……

"Canopy, drink, drink!"

The celestial general next to the golden-armored general held up his wine bowl and kept persuading him to drink, but they were all Tianhe's navy generals.

"Marshal, you have made great achievements in quelling the chaos of monster monkeys. Presumably after today, His Majesty will reward you for your merits. Take good care of the last general!" A general of the Tianhe navy complimented with a smile.

Marshal Tianpeng would not refuse anyone who came, and when the glass was dry, two touches of blush appeared on his face at this moment.My family knew about my own family affairs, so it stands to reason that he was thrown away by Sun Monkey with a stick when he was resisting Sun Monkey's disturbance in the Heavenly Palace, and he should have no credit for it.However, this guy is used to being an indistinct master, he felt that he could stand up and protect the master loyally, the Jade Emperor would naturally reward him with many rewards, and being praised by his subordinates at this moment made his heart fly to the sky!

He laughed and said: "It's easy to say, they are all my brothers. When I really command a heavenly soldier, I will definitely not forget you brothers. I will transfer you brothers out of Tianhe, and we brothers will have a good time together!"

The Tianhe navy is just a miscellaneous army. The [-] navy sounds like a bluff, but it is actually just cleaning up the old, weak, sick and disabled who manage Tianhe. When it comes to combat power, it is not far behind the real heavenly soldiers!

Those generals got the promise, all of them were elated, and then they praised the canopy marshal and kept pouring wine, but half of the wine was drunk, but there was a burst of fairy music with a special charm, and the scene immediately A unparalleled fairy has appeared in the movie!

"It's Fairy Chang'e!" Looking at the person coming, a general of the Tianhe Navy, who was drinking to the fullest, shouted with his tongue out.

At that moment, all the immortals in Yaochi didn't care about talking and drinking, and all looked at Fairy Chang'e!
The fairy in the field was wearing a plain White House dress, with icy skin and snow skin, and her appearance was peerless, as if all the beauty in the world was gathered in her body, especially the cool temperament on that beautiful face, it was really unforgettable at first sight .

This is Chang'e, who is known as the most beautiful woman in the Three Realms, the existence that makes countless gods, demons and demons covet her!

As she danced lightly, the entire Yaochi was silent, and all the gods and demons held their breath, staring at the number one beauty in the Three Realms with wide-eyed eyes!

After a piece of fairy music was played, Chang'e stood up after dancing, and all the immortals in the field bowed, and then left the fairyland.

It is customary for Chang'e to present a dance at every Peach Blossom Festival.

Seeing Chang'e's figure disappear into the fairyland, Marshal Tian Peng's eyes were full of reluctance, but he heard him say with great emotion: "It's a pity, it's a pity, the fairy is so beautiful, I can only see it once at the peach banquet." , really regrettable."

"Marshal, it's not easy to see her. Let's go to the Moon Star, why don't we ask her to dance a few songs?" A celestial general clamored...
