"A fixed number? Your Majesty, what is the fixed number?" asked the Queen Mother of the West, who was sitting on the west side and commanding the female fairies.
She and the Jade Emperor are not husband and wife, and there is no such thing as husband and wife among the gods in heaven.
If you want to be a successful couple, you must go down to earth.
She is the head of the female fairies.
There are differences between men and women. The Jade Emperor orders the immortals, but he does not directly order the female immortals. He usually orders them through the hands of the Queen Mother of the West.
"It is certain that these two people will eat three thousand flat peaches, three thousand pieces of dragon liver, three thousand bottles of phoenix marrow, and three thousand gourds of nine-turn golden elixir in my heavenly palace." The Jade Emperor said one by one.
What he said was exactly the same as what Venerable Guanyin thought.
"Hiss... it's okay to say that the flat peach has some left over from previous years, but for this dragon liver and phoenix marrow, we just used the name of dragon and phoenix, just like the lungs of a mortal couple, a real dragon and a phoenix, there is only a little left between heaven and earth.
Counting ten, how do you get the number three thousand?" Queen Mother Xi was surprised.
All the immortals nodded.
Dragon liver and phoenix marrow, to put it bluntly, they are hybrids with some dragon and phoenix blood.
True dragons and true phoenixes are sacred and noble in ancient times.
Anyone with a pure bloodline, such as the colorful phoenix Qingluan, is a special object of the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother. How could it be reduced to food?
The bloodline has been very thin until now.
The Dragon King of the Four Seas only has part of the true dragon bloodline, let alone others.
"The Nine-turn Golden Elixir Master still has forty-nine gourds. It takes seven, seven and forty-nine days to refine a furnace of Golden Elixir. You also have to choose an auspicious time and auspicious day. After refining it, you have to stop the furnace for half a year to comply with the will of heaven. You have to make it together.
Even if the old Taoist fires the furnace day and night, it will take thousands of years to refine. The key is that the materials are definitely not enough." Taishang Laojun also complained endlessly.
This is to use the Nine Turns Golden Elixir as a meal, even the gods can't resist.
"Can't the number of three thousand be changed?" Laojun asked again.
"This is a fixed number. If we change it, it will change to heaven." The Jade Emperor shook his head.
Change to heaven?
All the immortals were horrified.
In the past, when monkeys came to make trouble, all the immortals were surprised, but few were really scared.
What really scares them is the attack of the evil saint.
The other party emerges from the human world and the underworld, digging for the foundation of the incense of the gods.
After digging out the foundation, cut the sky.
After several near successes, many famous gods fell.
Even the five elders of the five directions can only retreat to protect themselves, waiting for their edge to pass before they dare to suppress them. In the past, the gods punished the human world whenever they wanted, and beat them whenever they wanted. After the four attacks of the evil saint, this began
Strictly implement the imperial edict of good weather and good weather. If it doesn't rain properly, you will be executed.
A good weather is enough to solve 80% of the problems of feudal agricultural society.
As for what happens when all the wasteland is reclaimed and there are too many people?
There is a plague god.
The plague gods from the four directions of the southeast, northwest and northwest will be dispatched, and the matter will be resolved.
This dynasty lasted for hundreds of thousands of years.
"Then, how are we going to collect these three thousand?" Li Jing, the King of Pagoda, forcibly calmed down.
In every battle, he was the marshal of heaven, commanding the troops to fight, and the brutality of the fighting was far beyond what monkeys could compare to.
What loss did the monkey make him suffer?
It just doesn't look good on the skin.
The Evil Saint almost killed him several times.
It was a toad that saved him.
That's what Taoist Toad said:
"Holy Ancestor, wait a minute. It's easy to kill a mediocre person. If you replace him with a famous commander, we will be in trouble."
So he escaped several times.
What an irony.
Facing the Evil Saint, he was as helpless as Sun Monkey facing the Tathagata.
It's just that the monkey is stronger than him. Monkeys are born without any fear, so they are still unwilling to be suppressed by Tathagata and are not convinced.
However, fear arose in his Taoist heart.
He believed that more than one god had fear, which could be seen from the lack of progress in everyone's practice.
"Gather the peaches first, and then you can have more time to gather the others. Fortunately, Tianji does not set a time limit, but it is bound to not be delayed for too long." The Jade Emperor said calmly.
"Your Majesty, the old Taoist has sensed the secret of heaven, and there is still a glimmer of hope." Taishang Laojun suddenly said.
"Old Sir, please speak." The Jade Emperor lowered his head and said.
"The secret shows that if you fulfill one of the three promises, nothing will happen. The middle one is the most difficult, and there are two other things that are not too difficult. The first one has been completed first, and the last one is to find a way.
Go to the exit of another big world and inform the great sage from outside the world." Laojun said seriously.
"Well, I have also sensed that what Laojun said is true. It is just the entrance to other worlds. Buddhists often say that there are three thousand great thousand worlds, and there is also the land of bliss in the west and the twenty-four heavens; Xuanmen also has three
Thirteen days. But which big world is the other person talking about?"
"Your Majesty can send people who are destined to search everywhere within the Three Realms, in heaven and on earth. I believe they will be found." The old gentleman touched his beard.
He just had a sudden impulse and had already sensed a new secret.
"Who is this destined person?" asked the Jade Emperor.
"The Monkey King, Monkey King."
"Well, this monkey is really good at finding things. Why don't we just leave the dragon liver and phoenix marrow to him." The Jade Emperor was immediately very satisfied.
"According to the order." Lao Jun said quickly.
"Great Heavenly Lord, wait a minute." At this time, the voice of Venerable Guanyin came from afar.
"Venerable Guanyin comes to the temple." The Jade Emperor was not displeased. He knew that when Guanyin spoke out, there must be something urgent.
Avalokitesvara came floating in the air. After bowing, he said: "Your Majesty, Sun Wukong is still on his mission to obtain Buddhist scriptures and cannot escape."
"You and I are well aware of the matter of seeking scriptures. I just need to send more gods down to earth to help." The Jade Emperor said with a slight smile.
To put it bluntly, the gods are different from ordinary people. They can sense the secrets of heaven. When they do something, they do it seriously at the beginning.
Immortals are just like people, they will become lazy after a long time.
So everyone gradually learned various methods of practicing the way of heaven in the lake.
Tang Seng is in 81 difficulties, so I will compile several difficulties based on Tang Seng's experiences from the time he was born to the time he grew up.
If the level is not enough, the gods will come to provide it.
In the end, there is still one problem missing, so let’s try again when the wind blows.
Is this a serious problem-solving?
Definitely not, this is obviously the way to deal with the boss.
You should make it difficult for people to learn the scriptures, so that they can cherish the true scriptures and promote the true scriptures.
It's all nonsense. Whether the true scripture can be promoted depends on whether it is consistent with the interests of the ruler.
If it doesn't fit, no matter how difficult it was to get it, it will be destroyed when it should be destroyed.
If it matches, you can visit the 480 temple in the south.
Everyone knows this, but if Tianji shows that they want to do it this way, they have to do it this way.
Anyway, Heaven can't check everything in detail, and it's not super-intelligent. If this is the case, then that's fine.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Venerable Guanyin smiled slightly.
The Jade Emperor suddenly realized that what Guanyin wanted to say was all without words.
It was exactly what he had just moved in his mind.
The other party is borrowing the story of Journey to the West to hint to himself that since the great sage's request is shown in the secret of heaven and the secret of heaven can be manipulated, the other party's request will not be so fatal.
The three thousand flat peaches can all be real. As for the dragon liver, just find some oolongs, black dragons, horny dragons, etc. and put them together.
If that doesn't work, you can ask the Dragon King of the Four Seas to donate some of his true liver to adjust the taste.
Anyway, there is no shortage of cooking gods in heaven.
The Jade Emperor was immediately relieved, and then smiled and said: "Venerable Guanyin, you are indeed a wise man, please take a seat. I will order people to prepare for a meeting to invite the saints."
