Journey to the West: Asking the Heavens

Chapter 782 Inside Story
"Xuanzang..."

In the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea, in Guanyin's eyes reflecting the three worlds, the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi is reflected.

She looked at Li Shimin ordering Xuanzang to be the host of the water and land conference to manage this grand event of the Tang Empire, but she smiled and said: "It's finally started, where is Hui An?!"

The mana enveloped the sound and spread throughout the South China Sea purple bamboo forest. After hearing this, Mu Zha, who was repairing in his cave, immediately stood up from the futon, and his figure turned into a stream of light and disappeared in place. When he reappeared, Already arrived in front of Guanyin.

But he saluted and said: "I don't know what the master is calling for when I visit the master?"

"Let's go and get the nine-ringed tin staff and brocade cassock bestowed by the Buddha, and then go to Nanzhan Buzhou as a teacher." Guanyin ordered.

Mu Zha was shocked. He is a disciple of Avalokitesvara, Li Jing's second son, and Nezha's elder brother. He is very well informed about the news of heaven and Buddhism. The matter of taking charge of the general manager can't be hidden from him.The nine-ringed tin staff and the brocade cassock were treasures bestowed by the Tathagata to the sutra seekers. At this moment, the Bodhisattva asked him to pick them up, clearly to find the sutra seeker!
The matter of learning scriptures is the ultimate significance of this Journey to the West catastrophe. In a sense, this is the most important event in the Three Realms right now!
Seeing him in a daze, Guanyin couldn't help but frown and said, "Why, you're not going yet?!"

Mu Zha woke up and turned around, made a confession, and hurriedly ran towards the place where the treasure was placed. Journey to the West to learn scriptures is a good opportunity to gain merit, but it must not be missed!

……

Xiniu Hezhou, Futu Mountain.

Daoist Lu Ya, who was dressed in a red monk robe, also reflected in his eyes the scene of Li Shimin ordering Tang Seng to preside over the water and land meeting, but he couldn't help shaking his head secretly, and said: "Has the scripture learning started? Anyway, just as he said, look at it." Does he have the ability to save my father and uncle!"

Before he finished speaking, the man stretched out his hand towards the void, and when he reappeared, there was already a fat-headed and big-eared pig demon in his palm.

This pig demon is full of ferocious aura, with wide head and wide ears, and slender fangs. It looks scary. What's even more terrifying is that its person is already a golden fairy. There are no monsters of this level in the entire Three Realms. How many!

But at this moment, the vicious monster looked around in confusion. He was clearly resting in the cave, how did he get here? !
When he saw Lu Ya who was wearing a red monk robe in front of him, his confusion turned into fear, and there were signs of weakness all over his body. He said in a trembling voice: "The little demon has seen the big sun." Tathagata, Great Sun Tathagata Wan Fu Jinan!"

This demon is not someone else, but the Canopy Marshal Zhu Gangli who was framed by Guanyin and knocked down the mortal world. Of course, it is Zhu Gangli now!

This person was already full of resentment because he was framed and descended to the earth, but he ran into a banshee called Second Sister Egg in Fuling Mountain, who was quite friendly to him, and the love between the two became better for a while. But not long ago, when Second Sister Egg was out, she encountered heavenly soldiers and generals who were suppressed and killed on the spot. Although those heavenly soldiers and generals were all killed by him afterwards, it was difficult for Second Sister Egg to come back to life.

Because of this incident, Zhu Ganglu's heart changed drastically. He was wronged and suffered the tragic death of his lover, so he simply gave up on himself. He no longer thought about the days when he was the marshal of the canopy in the sky, but was like an ordinary monster, choosing people and devouring them. , Occupying the mountain as king, committed many murders.

However, although killing the weak is a pleasure for a while, but at the moment when he bumps into this Buddha's Tathagata, it is inevitable that the Marshal of the Canopy will feel guilty.

Although Zhu Gangyan doesn't know very detailed about the method of following the footsteps of the Buddhist Great Sun Tathagata, he still knows a little. It has something to do with it. He once shined brilliantly in the Battle of the Conferred Gods. Even if Nezha is so rebellious and Jade Emperor has such a noble status, he should treat this great day Tathagata with courtesy, not to mention him. up!
With such an existence, crushing him to death is as easy as crushing an ant. Can you not be afraid at this moment when you let the pig with a lot of murder in its hands be stained? !
Lu Ya glanced at the guilty Zhu Ganglu with a half-smile, and said, "Marshal Tianpeng, you are guilty of committing misdeeds in the lower realm?"

Hearing the words, Zhu Gangli's heart felt cold. This is the meaning of Xingshi asking for guilt, but how unfair it is. You must know that the demon kings in the lower realm have done a lot of evil, so why did they catch him alone? !

You know, he is also very wronged in his heart!
"Da Ri Tathagata, please listen to the little demon's judgment, the little demon was also confused for a while, and just made such a big mistake!" Zhu Ganglian said pitifully.

With a smile on the corner of Lu Ya's mouth, he said, "Tell me, how wronged you are to make you make such a big mistake?!"

He didn't intend to do anything to this Zhu Gangli. Although this guy is not an important character, he is also a member of the team traveling west to learn Buddhist scriptures. It would be very troublesome to kill him. He wanted to use Zhu Gangli's hand to do something with himself. If it is beneficial, as long as you follow the agreement with that person at the earlier moment and subvert the Buddhism, then he will be able to achieve his wish!
"Reporting to the Tathagata, the little demon used to be the canopy marshal of the heavenly court, and was later demoted to the earth for molesting Chang'e. However, there is something hidden about this matter. The little demon was framed by others, and has never disrespected the fairy Chang'e. That's all right, but for some reason, when she was reincarnated, the little demon was secretly tricked by someone and cast into a pig fetus by mistake, and because of her lover, she was killed by the soldiers of the Heavenly Court. , made a big mistake, and I hope that the Tathagata can lighten the little demon!" Zhu Ganglian said.

He didn't expect that he would be easily forgiven by the Tathagata. After all, it was not an ordinary crime to fall into the demon way and slaughter mortals in the body of Marshal Tianpeng. After all, he used to be an official, which can be said to be an insult to heaven The reputation of the god is that Da Ri Tathagata can kill him casually.

However, ants are greedy for life, not to mention Zhu Gangli, who is used to seeing the wind and the wind, as long as Lu Ya doesn't kill him, no matter how he is dealt with, he will be willing to deal with him. Only when he survives can he talk about the rest. He still had a bit of desire in his heart to investigate and find out who was behind the molesting of Chang'e in the future, so as to avenge his hatred.

Of course, this thought is hidden very deep, because this fellow understands that the one who dares to plot against him like this, and the one who beats him from a human body into a pig fetus under the attention of the immortals, must be a great supernatural being, otherwise Don't dare to be so rampant, with his current morality, even knowing the truth and revenge is a dead end!
"The poor monk knows a thing or two about what you said. Do you know how you can be framed, and how you can be labeled as a pig fetus?!" Taoist Lu Ya asked with a smile.

He was originally a monster clan, and he didn't care about the deaths of those mortals. During the Lich Wars in the past, in order to refine the witch-slaying sword, the monster clan killed countless human creatures, let alone him and his other brothers. The void caused heavy casualties to all living beings in the world!
The so-called rules and sins in the prehistoric Three Realms have always been aimed at the weak. The rise of any powerful god and demon is not accompanied by a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, such as the demon ancestor Luohu, such as the Tongtian sage, who set off a catastrophe of dragons and phoenixes. The three tribes of the Great Desolation, the Dragon, the Phoenix and the Qilin were all killed and injured. One wanted to destroy the world by himself, but in the end they were all alive and well. Who would dare not look for their troubles? !
Zhu Gangli didn't know what Lu Ya was thinking, and honestly shook his head and said: "The little demon has low mana, but he has no way of knowing it."

"It's okay to tell you. Just think about it, what kind of friendship do you have with Guanshiyin Bodhisattva? Why does she, a monk, speak up for you?" Lu Ya asked.

Zhu Gangli is not a fool, and a fool can't sit in the position of marshal of the canopy, not to mention that in a sense, he can also be regarded as the confidant of the Jade Emperor. It may be exaggerated to say that he is all-round, but he still does not understand the intention of his superiors. will be wrong.

But precisely because he understood the meaning of Lu Ya's words, Zhu Gangli hesitated, and he asked in disbelief: "You mean that Guanyin Bodhisattva is plotting against the little demon behind his back, how is this possible?!"

No wonder he didn't believe it. After all, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva is a well-known supernatural being in the Three Realms. He has a lofty status and powerful magic power. He has no grudges against him in the past or recent days. There is no need to harm him. If there is no benefit at all, Zhu Gangli asked himself that he is Guanyin, and he would not deal with a mere canopy marshal, so naturally he would not believe it.

But there is indeed another doubt here, that is what Lu Ya said, Guanyin has no friendship with him, so why should he speak for him? !
Seeing that he didn't believe it, Lu Ya said: "You have been in the sky for a long time, you must also know about the Great Tribulation of Journey to the West!"

Zhu Gangli nodded, but he still didn't know what the Journey to the West catastrophe had to do with him. This kind of catastrophe was a game played by the top leaders of the Three Realms, and the interests of saints were involved, which was at the level of the Jade Emperor He can't control it, he is not qualified to participate in it at all!

Then Lu Ya said again: "If the poor monk told you that this time, you will be one of the people who will be robbed?!"

"what?!"

Hearing this sentence, Zhu Gangli was finally moved, and he said in shock: "You mean, the little demon is the one who should be robbed?!"

It should be noted that among the people who should be robbed, none of them are well-known existences in the Three Realms. The closest ones are Shen Gongbao and Jiang Ziya. One is the former Zhenwu, and the other is the existence who almost ascended to the position of Zhenwu. Both of them are disciples of saints and have a lot of friends; And speaking farther away, the Twelve Ancestral Witches and Emperor Jun Taiyi in the Lich War, the ancestors of the dragon, phoenix, and kylin tribes in the Dragon and Phoenix Tribulation, but those who can be involved in the catastrophe are undoubtedly not the top in the world. The existence of gods and demons, Zhu Gangli's family knows his own family affairs, his little way is nothing in the Three Realms, how can he be the one who should be robbed? !

"Don't be surprised. You are the one who should be robbed, but you are not the only one who should be robbed. This calamity is different from the previous ones. It is much more peaceful. If you are chosen, you are chosen. Do you think the poor monk will Are you lying here?!" Lu Ya said.

Zhu Gangli was silent for a while, but he had to admit that what Lu Ya said was reasonable. With Lu Ya's status, there was no need to lie to him, and if he was the one who should be robbed, all of this would make sense.

This catastrophe is the great catastrophe of Journey to the West, and Buddhism is prosperous, and as a person who should be catastrophe, he should go westward once to learn scriptures, so it is reasonable and reasonable for Guanyin to trap him and make him go down to earth.

"Journey to the West to learn scriptures was originally considered a good job for those who should be robbed. You can get a piece of merit and virtue, and you can get a piece of Buddhist fruit. The pig is just manicured. Let me ask you, poor monk, would you like to go west to learn scriptures? ! " Lu Ya asked.

There was a bit of emotion in Zhu Gang's eyes. The position of the righteous fruit of Buddhism is different from the position of the righteous god of heaven. The Jade Emperor has been weak for a long time. The Tathagata old Buddha has great supernatural powers and boundless mana. There are few rivals in the Three Realms, and Buddhism is at a time when it is prosperous. Joining it and gaining a piece of Taoism, but it is at ease. Being protected by the Tathagata is better than joining the heaven.

Just as he was about to say yes, Lu Ya asked again: "Are you willing to take revenge on Second Sister Egg's revenge?"

Second Sister Egg!
Hearing these three words, Zhu Ganglian's eyes were stained with blood, and he looked at Lu Ya sharply and said, "What is the meaning of Da Ri Tathagata's words?!"

Although Zhu Bajie is lustful, timid, and has such and other shortcomings, he is a very affectionate person. Second Sister Egg accompanied him to help him through the most difficult period when he was a demon at the beginning, and married him. It's the same, although he avenged her, but he still never let go of her in his heart. Now that Da Ri Tathagata mentions it, it is clear that there is something wrong with this matter, how can you let him sit still? !

Lu Ya wanted to tell him the truth, so as to provoke the relationship between him and Buddhism, so naturally he would not hide it, and directly named the truth and said: "So that you can know that the death of the second sister of the egg was also caused by Guanyin." , if you live happily and peacefully in the lower realm, how can you have the intention to go to the west to learn scriptures?"

"This……"

Zhu Gang's eyes were wide open, and a surge of remorse rushed straight to the top of his head, but he beat his chest and said: "It was me, it was me who killed the second sister..."

"Guanyin! I swear against you!"

Speaking of the last sentence, mana surged all over his body, and a violent evil spirit rose into the sky, and there was a fierce and evil spirit between the heaven and the earth.

Seeing this, Lu Ya stretched out his hand and waved it, and a burst of mana with an extremely scorching breath dispelled the strange image. A little bit of Buddha's light radiated from him, and he opened his mouth and shouted softly: "Quiet!"

This word of quietness, however, contains endless Zen meaning. Hearing it in Zhu Gang's ears, it was like a blow to the head, and suddenly woke him up from that anger.

The man said with a look of hatred: "Dare to ask Dari Tathagata, today you called the little demon here, and told the little demon these things, what is your intention?!"

He is not stupid, Lu Ya must have a plan for telling him so many truths, otherwise, how can the majestic Tathagata be so polite to him? !
The corner of Lu Ya's mouth raised a smug smile, and he said: "Marshal Tianpeng has good eyesight, to be honest, the poor monk has been displeased with Guanyin for a long time, and intends to help the Marshal take revenge, I don't know what the Marshal wants?! "
