Chapter 3. Sending monkeys to Taoyuan
Lu Zhi came to the hall of the main hall and saw a short, fat, middle-aged monk wearing cassocks and a bun sitting in the hall drinking tea. Behind him stood a novice monk in yellow monk robes. He had the same short figure and was the same as that year.
Tu Xing Sun.
And the identity of the short and fat monk is naturally that of the fearful grandson.
Seeing Lu Zhi's arrival, Zhenliu Sun stood up and said with a smile: "Junior Brother Lu, you are here, it really makes it easier for me to wait."
Wei Liusun seemed to be very familiar with him, but Lu Zhi didn't have much friendship with him. Even during the Conferred God Tribulation, he didn't have much contact with him, but he couldn't respond to the words "Junior Brother".
"I am afraid of leaving my grandson Buddha. I cannot bear the title of junior disciple. Buddha is from Lingshan Mountain in the West, and I am from Xuanmen in the East. You and I cannot be related to each other."
The smile on Sun Zhen's face could not help but stiffen, and he said coldly: "That's fine, since the emperor no longer recognizes his old friends from the three religions, the old monk will no longer recall the past."
Lu Zhi was noncommittal, and then glanced at Tu Xingsun who was following Wei Liusun, and said: "Tufu Xingjun, I haven't seen you for a long time. What's wrong? Did you just think of coming to me today?"
Hearing this, Tu Xingsun couldn't help but have a flash of resentment in his eyes. He was about to say something, but was suppressed by Zhenliu Sun raising his hand.
Fearful Sun glanced at Lu Zhi and said: "Amitabha, now my disciple has converted to the West and has become the Earthly Sun Arhat of the West. All the things in the past have long since passed away, so the Emperor should not hold on to them any longer.
Alright."
Speaking of which, this Tu Xingsun was still on the list of gods. He was also a god at the beginning, but in the end he went to the West, which was considered a bad debt.
But Tu Xingsun still left a true spirit person on the list of gods, and Lu Zhi's priesthood has the authority to control the stars in the sky. If he wants to embarrass Tu Xingsun, he will not even run to the west.
use.
However, Lu Zhi didn't really plan to do anything. He just couldn't stand the master and disciple rebelling against Xuanmen and turning to the West, so he stabbed them a few times and insulted them.
Just accept it as soon as it's good? After all, Lu Zhi couldn't really give the master and apprentice a good beating. After a few words of ridicule, it was time to start talking about business.
Lu Zhi said: "Okay? I already know the Buddha's intention. I just don't know. How are you planning to deal with the monster monkey Sun Wukong this time?"
"What about the Hozen? It's so exciting now. It not only calls itself the Monkey King, but it also summons a large number of monsters to openly rebel against the heaven. It has provoked the order of heaven and earth and has become a scourge that disrupts the three realms."
"So I want to ask Buddha, how are you going to handle this matter at Western Lingshan? If Lingshan doesn't care, then I can only order the demons to be exterminated."
Zhen Liusun nodded and said, "What about this? I, the Tathagata, have already issued a decree."
"Since Sun Wukong wants to be the Monkey King, how can he be fulfilled? Just give him the title of Monkey King."
"Oh?" Lu Zhi glanced at Wei Liusun and said mockingly, "You in the West really want to confer him the title of Monkey King? Can he... afford the title of Monkey King?"
Fearful Liusun said: "The World Honored One has already explained this matter. We are not really going to give him a status equal to that of Heaven. We are just giving him a false name to calm him down temporarily and keep him from causing trouble."
"False name? Just because of your words from the West, you want me to let Sun Wukong go and confer him the title of Great Sage, Equal to Heaven...Does the Buddha take my majesty in heaven too lightly?"
"Old monk naturally does not dare to offend the divine power of heaven. He is just conveying the decree of Buddha Tathagata. As for the details, I would like to ask the emperor to listen to the old monk explain in detail..."
After a conversation, the masters and apprentices, Zhenliu Sun and Tu Xingsun, resigned and left. They had to visit the Jade Emperor to decide on the follow-up matters.
This time, Western Lingshan has paid a huge price to pave the way for Sun Wukong to follow. Moreover, looking more deeply, the westward journey of later generations is also a destined trend. After some thinking, Heaven also
Agreed to cooperate with Lingshan.
Soon after, Li Jing and his son, who were ordered to subdue demons from the lower world, sent back a battle report again. They said that the demons in Huaguo Mountain were ferocious and the battle situation was tense. They asked Lu Zhi to send reinforcements to support them.
But Lu Zhi still didn't send any reinforcements to them, and instead ordered them to withdraw their troops.
This battle has been fought so far, and it's enough. There's no point in continuing the fight. Anyway, it won't be long before Sun Wukong will be recruited again.
In fact, this is also the case. Just when Sun Wukong thought he had defeated the heavenly soldiers and proudly greeted his demons to start the banquet, the good old man from heaven, Taibai Jinxing, came again.
When the Heavenly Court recruited him for the second time, Sun Wukong didn't have a long memory. When he heard that the Heavenly Court actually did what he wished and granted him pardon to the Monkey King, his original determination that even if he died, he would die outside, was instantly thrown away.
On the other hand, he followed Taibai Jinxing back to heaven again.
Zhenwu Palace.
On this day, Long Ji returned to the palace somewhat gloomily. When Lu Zhi saw this, he asked, "Long'er, what's going on?"
Long Ji turned to look at Lu Zhi, handed a basket of flat peaches to Lu Zhi, and said, "Lu Lang, this time the flat peach garden... is probably going to be robbed."
Lu Zhi raised his eyebrows. He had roughly guessed something in his mind, but he still asked aloud: "What's going on?"
"It's not like that old man from Taibai Jinxing actually suggested that Sun Wukong should take care of the peach garden. My mother also asked me not to take care of it... But if the monkey enters the peach garden, won't the peaches in that garden suffer?!
"
Lu Zhi couldn't help but shook his head with some laughter, raised the peach basket in his hand, and said, "So you picked the peach back first?"
Ever since the flat peach garden was opened in the Heavenly Court, it has been handed over to Long Ji by the Queen Mother to manage. This has been the case for thousands of years. Almost all the flat peaches in that garden are taken care of by Long Ji, but now he wants to let Sun Wukong go to the flat peach garden.
Go, how can Long Ji not feel distressed.
The entire flat peach forest was cultivated bit by bit by Long Ji herself. Now that all the flat peaches in the garden are being destroyed by the hozen, it's strange that Long Ji is not angry.
"Hmph!" Long Ji snorted softly and said, "This basket of flat peaches grew on the mother flat peach plant, and it happened to be ripe today... Those great Western monks thought of beauty and calculated the time so accurately.
"
"But I won't leave it to that monkey to waste. Even leaving one for him is already a good thing."
Looking at Long Ji, who was still aggrieved, Lu Zhi didn't say anything. He just smiled and picked a flat peach from the basket and enjoyed it beautifully.
Long Ji's appearance reminded him of the appearance of his two junior brothers, Jin Jiao and Silver Jiao, when he went to Tushita Palace to pay his respects to Lao Jun a few days ago.
At that time, Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao were also tinkering in the alchemy room. While muttering, they couldn't let those precious golden elixirs be ruined by monkeys, they put away most of the most precious eighth-level and seventh-level golden elixirs...
What makes people even more dumbfounded is that Yinjiao actually went to the garden, peed on the mud, rubbed out a very special 'golden elixir', and prepared to mix it into the elixir gourd...
Fortunately, Silver Horn was stopped in the end, otherwise, Sun Wukong might be able to taste a surprise flavor from a certain golden elixir in the future.
"Okay, okay." Lu Zhi said, "Long'er, please don't be sulky. Regarding the matter of Sun Wukong, we have already made up the rules. In the worst case, my husband and you will go and make some repairs together."
Taoyuan is it.”
Lu Zhi reached out and pulled Long Ji into his arms, comforting him.
Long Ji raised his hand and pinched his waist, and whispered: "My sister and the others are here too, don't think about messing around."
Lu Zhi raised his brows: "They are... right. The Pantaoyuan has been given to Sun Wukong, so naturally you sisters will be free."
"How about asking them to help me take the Roaring Dog for a while?"
