Chapter 1375 If there is a country like this, it's a shame to be a floating life!
This was not the first time that Tang Sanzang was resurrected. He knew that he was destined to be harmed by Na Xitian again, and after asking Sun Wukong privately, it turned out to be the case.
After all, only the sinful Western genius would be so cruel to him. It must have been his respected prison god boss who saved him in the end.
Moreover, this time Tang Sanzang also felt that the restless demonic energy in his body was gone. Maybe there were still some in the soul and true spirit, but at least Tang Sanzang felt much more relaxed.
In the past, I would often be filled with the demonic energy in my body so that my whole body would swell up, and I would be as reckless as a barbarian, without looking like a monk at all.
It's fine now. I'm reborn, and all the demonic energy in my body is gone.
Thank you, God of Hell!
If Xitian knew that he had spent dozens of demon yuan on Tang Sanzang for days and nights to get rid of the demonic aura from his body, and that in the end Tang Sanzang all owed it to Chu Hao, then Xitian would probably be furious.
Tang Sanzang's mentality was very open-minded at the moment, especially knowing that the Prison God had come out of the abyss and continued to protect the journey to the west.
Therefore, he is very bold and natural when it comes to disaster.
When Tang Sanzang and his four friends came to the Chechi Kingdom, they couldn't help but be a little stunned.
Different from the cruel scenes they had experienced before, the four of them felt their eyes light up just by looking at Che Chiguo in the distance.
But I saw that the car was late in the country, the flowers were fragrant, the wind was warm, the clouds were clear and the sun was shining brightly. The willows beside the road soothed my eyes, and the ointment rain nourished everything in spring.
Tang Sanzang couldn't help but marveled:
"What a beautiful place. It's totally different from the other countries in Xiniu and Hezhou."
Tang Sanzang only remembered that along the way, bandits were rampant, the country was in ruins, the people were in dire straits, and it was endlessly bleak. Moreover, often in an extremely bleak world, there was a group of monks who exploited the people.
So along the way, Tang Sanzang fought to liberate the oppressed people.
But now, the Chechi Kingdom that Tang Sanzang saw was full of tranquility and peace, not at all like the scene that Xiniu Hezhou should have.
"What's going on? It's completely different from what we experienced before." Tang Sanzang asked in confusion.
Even Sun Wukong looked confused,
"I don't know. Maybe we can get the answer when we go into the city."
The masters and apprentices were watching the scenery on the road and walking slowly on their horses. Suddenly they heard a shout, which was like the shouts of thousands of people.
Tang Sanzang was so frightened that he stopped his horse and could not move forward. He turned around and said, "Wukong, did something happen?"
Bajie said: "It's like the earth is cracking and a mountain is falling."
Sha Monk said: "It's like thunder and thunder."
Tang Sanzang had died several times and was somewhat suffering from PTSD. He seemed a little worried when he heard this sound.
Sun Wukong just smiled and said, "I'll go take a look."
Sun Wukong jumped up, stepped on the clouds, and the light rose in the air. He opened his eyes and saw a city in his sight.
Taking a closer look, I saw that there was a faint auspicious light, but there was no ominous aura.
I originally thought that another monster had come to the city and the country was in chaos, but the country of Chechi was still peaceful and quiet. Although there was constant vibration, there was no blood and sword flash at all, and it did not look like a war.
Sun Wukong muttered to himself: "There are no flags flashing, swords or halberds shining brightly in the city, nor cannons ringing, so why are there so many people and horses making such a noise?"
When Sun Wukong was frowning and thinking, he saw an open space on the beach outside the city gate, where many monks gathered. They were all pulling carts like slaves.
Sun Wukong's eyes lit up instantly, and his intuition told him that this would be one of the few satisfying pure lands in Hezhou, Xiniu!
Immediately, Sun Wukong turned over and told Tang Sanzang what he saw.
When Tang Sanzang heard this, his eyes widened.
"What, on Xiniu Hezhou, there are people who dare to drive monks into slavery?! It's really too——"
"Great! Come on, let's go over and take a look!"
There was uncontrollable surprise on Tang Sanzang's face. Ever since he entered Xiniu Hezhou, he had been oppressed a lot by those monks.
Moreover, I have seen countless countries being oppressed by some monks with malicious intentions but chanting the Buddha's name, making their people miserable. I have never seen a country that dares to fight for national sovereignty.
But now, there is such a country in front of them that dares to fight for national sovereignty. This makes Tang Sanzang, who has always hated iron for not becoming steel, suddenly feel like he has received a reassurance!
Tang Sanzang has always been very divided, and Buddhism can save people, but those monks who rely on the power of the West to open temples, station private soldiers, and avoid corvee taxes are not good at all. They are slandering Buddhism!
Therefore, Tang Sanzang has always wanted to clear up these chaos that should not exist, but it is far from enough on his own, and the people must wake up on their own.
There are very few countries that I have encountered before that can stand together. After all, it is on this Xiniu Hezhou controlled by Xitian.
But now, we are able to encounter such a country where monks are expelled as slaves. How amazing!
Tang Sanzang was eager to see this country, so he flew to Chechi Kingdom with his three disciples.
When Tang Sanzang and four others arrived, they saw a group of Taoists driving many monks. The monks were pulling small carts, and the carts were filled with bricks, tiles, wood, adobe and the like;
The slope on the beach is the highest, and there is a ridged path with two passes. The road below the pass is steep and straight, so how can the car pull it up?
Although the weather was warm, the monks' robes were worn and tattered, and their big bellies and shiny foreheads were also dirty. It was very embarrassing to see this.
And those who drive the monks are all Taoists.
The Taoist leader was wearing a star crown on his head and brocade. There seemed to be lightning flashing between his brows, and he was full of righteousness.
Tang Sanzang came to the Taoist leader, clasped his hands and said:
"Fellow Taoist, please stay."
When the Taoist saw Tang Sanzang dressed as a monk, he couldn't help but frown and asked first:
"Who are you? If you are a monk from the Chechi Kingdom, you must go to the Yamen to make up for your military service and taxes in these years according to regulations, so you must not neglect it!"
Tang Sanzang smiled slightly, put his palms together and said:
"The poor monk came from the Tang Dynasty in the east and went to the west to worship Buddha and learn scriptures. He is not from the Chechi Kingdom. Please be patient, Taoist Master."
After hearing this, the Taoist priest softened his expression and bowed:
"I'm sorry, it was Pindao who was rude. Pindao's name was Xuanyuan. It was all due to the changes in the national conditions of Chechi country. However, we only targeted the monks of our country and would never implicate innocent people.
What's more, Master, you come from the Tang Dynasty, which is a supreme country. Regardless of Buddhism or Taoism, all people in the country respect the laws of the country, love the people like sons, and are respected by all people. In fact, it is the place where our Chechi country respects and worships."
When Taoist Xuanyuan said these words, Tang Sanzang couldn't help but sigh,
"The words of the Taoist priest are so touching to my heart. I should be able to understand this in my life!"
Taoist priest Xuanyuan smiled faintly,
"It's easy to talk about."
Suddenly, Taoist priest Jingmin was stunned again.
