Chapter 1,258 For the sake of the great plan of heaven and earth, destroy that island country...
“Does the indiscriminate issuance of ghost notes depreciate their value?”
Li Yan was not surprised after hearing Xiaoqian's opinion.
He has also considered this approach.
After all, the paper money of the feudal dynasty could not escape the word inflation in the end, and it collapsed very quickly, such as the Jiaozi of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Huizi of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Jiaobao of the Jin Dynasty, the banknote method of the Yuan Dynasty, and the Daming Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty.
The treasure banknotes and Qing Dynasty banknotes quickly became worthless waste paper due to the greed of the rulers, and were eventually destroyed.
This has been the case in all dynasties, and we have never learned from the past, and indeed we cannot learn from it.
Xiaoqian, who was in the Ming Dynasty in the Great Vision Realm, followed Jiajing to snipe the Ming Dynasty banknotes issued by Buddhism, so she naturally thought of this.
Since the underworld ticket is of great importance, let it be put into effect and then be discarded.
But the problem is that a plan is a plan, and it is not that easy to actually implement it.
How many new coins must be poured in to devalue the coins?
Even if Xiaoqian can be refined, it is just a drop in the bucket. Even if it is refined day and night for a hundred years, it will not be enough to impact the market that has already formed a large scale in the underworld.
Not to mention that ghost tickets are not obtained out of thin air, but are converted from the transaction currency of living beings in the human world. After all, monsters in this world still pay money to buy things, so they are really particular about it...
Xiaoqian was obviously not impulsive, and actually came up with two countermeasures: "I have just confirmed that the dead souls released in the Hundred Ghosts Night Journey have poured into the underworld and have not yet been reincarnated. They can help me refine them together.
As for the silver needed for the underworld vote, didn’t the young master say that there are silver mines on the Japanese islands? For the sake of the great plan of heaven and earth, let’s destroy that crazy island nation!”
Li Yan laughed: "Indeed."
On his way to Japan, the pirate Wang Zhi had already set off, and the Ming army's Hu Zongxian also began to gather momentum, apparently preparing for a two-pronged attack.
But Xiaoqian also knows the situation of the Ming Dynasty. The treasury is empty and the soldiers are incompetent. Although the Japanese country is just a small island country, the Japanese pirates have harassed the coast of the Ming Dynasty for countless years. However, it seems unrealistic to attack across the sea.
There's no benefit in coming down.
At that time, Li Yan casually said that there were gold and silver mines in Japan, and the golden Buddhas they cast once shocked the people of the Song Dynasty. The empty treasury of the Ming Dynasty needed to be replenished, but Xiaoqian didn't expect it to be used here.
It’s interesting to think about it. When the Tang Dynasty destroyed Silla, they also took over the Japanese kingdom. They were interested in the silver mines on the island. However, the conditions in ancient times were very poor. It was definitely not worth sending troops to the island personally.
, so the comprador approach was adopted at that time.
However, at this time, the Japanese country in the Tang Dynasty had just named its country Japan, and was so poor and backward that it was even worse than Silla. In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, Japan was still called the Japanese country in disparagement, but it had gone through many experiences.
After the various daimyo fight and compete, military strength cannot be underestimated.
If we want to land on the island and destroy the country, it is not a matter of development cost. Whether the Ming army can defeat it is really a matter of two opinions...
Fortunately, Wang Zhi's pirate fleet opened the way, and Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang trained troops later. After Hu Zongxian reported to the capital, he received the order to attack the pirates, and this trip was possible.
But destroying the country for mining? After all, it is easy to say, but extremely difficult to implement!
Seeing Li Yan's silence, Xiaoqian knew that this method was not very feasible, but she did not give up: "I think I can give it a try, but I can't let the Ming Piao become so popular!"
Li Yan admired her enthusiasm and nodded: "This is indeed a way. Although it is difficult, it is better than having no idea. Go ahead and prepare."
Xiaoqian was very excited and full of energy: "Okay!"
She floated away with Du Jiuniang and Tao Shien, and Li Yan stared at Naihe Bridge and Meng Po again before returning to the Tenth Hall.
The situation here has become even more chaotic.
Following the Evil Mirror Stage, the Eighteenth Level of Hell also began to go on strike.
If the evil mirror platform cannot be used, it will cause the ghosts to be squeezed and unable to be reincarnated, or it may not be able to distinguish between good and evil and cannot punish and eradicate evil correctly, but it will still be able to function after all. The eighteen levels of hell are a place where evil ghosts are imprisoned. Once there is a riot
, the gods and Buddhas are out, and the scalp is numb!
Faced with such a situation, the Ten Palaces of Yama were a little panicked, and were already discussing using the underworld ticket to get the underworld back on track. Even though they knew that this thing was promoted by the enemy and was dangerous and unpredictable, they still had to stabilize the overall situation first.
Witnessing this scene, Li Yan also knew that time was tight and he could not come up with a foolproof strategy. He called Taibai Jinxing and Xiao Bailong aside and told them about inflation.
Upon hearing this, the two of them had similar concerns: "Is this method feasible?"
Li Yandao: "The Ming Piao is extremely implicated. It is extremely difficult to turn it into a piece of waste paper. However, if the invasion of the manor is really the key plan of the other party, we can force it to show up by converting a large number of Ming Piao!"
Taibai Jinxing understood: "It's wonderful!"
Xiao Bailong also nodded and said: "It's better to come out and have a show than to hide like this."
Originally, the gods, Buddhas and the separated bodies of the Ten Halls of Yama returned to the underworld to support them. Once the leader of the Netherworld took action, he just happened to compete with him and wipe out the chaos in the underworld. As a result, the demon behind him avoided seeing and punched him.
It's very uncomfortable in the air.
The Yin Qi death realm of the underworld is mutually exclusive with the pure Qi fairy spirit of the immortals. It is impossible for them to stay in the underworld forever, but if they really want to leave, if Yama of the Tenth Palace is killed again, the little advantage they finally obtained will be lost.
It will be paid in running water.
Therefore, if a large number of ghost votes are converted, it can stimulate the demons to come out for a decisive battle, which is of course a dream.
After having a plan, Taibaijinxing and Xiaobailong quickly took action. The former combined the matter with the conquest of Gaotianyuan, while the latter pulled his sister over: "Escort the ships of the Ming Dynasty, and let my little sister also contribute!"
"
Li Yan nodded: "That's what I meant."
It was precisely because of the existence of the Dragon Girl that he dared to let the Ming army go on an expedition to the Japanese country. Otherwise, if the gods were unfavorable and the waves hit the fleet, they would repeat the mistakes of the Yuan Dynasty in the past.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! What’s more, although the spiritual world of Japan was in disarray due to the backlash of the Hundred Ghosts of the Night, there are still demons such as the Yamata no Orochi, so we should not take it lightly.
.
The little white dragon wants to keep an eye on the underworld and can't get away for the time being, so he lets the dragon girl take action in the hope that this girl can gain some merit and have more capital to settle down in the fierce confrontation that follows.
The influence of the fear of disaster in the dragon girl's body has dissipated, and she has been stimulated by the great wish world, but she is gearing up and following eagerly.
Li Yan was a little worried and called Jiuye: "Go and see Jiutou, why haven't you come back..."
The Nine-Headed Insect is originally a strange bird, and the word "insect" is also a contemptuous name. This person was frightened to death by the great catastrophe, and spent hundreds of years living half-life on Fuso Island. He actually has the intention to correct his evil ways and return to the right path.
, Li Yan also avoided the word "worm" when addressing him, which moved the nine-headed insect very much.
Comparing it with Jiuye, the exotic herb that was stolen by Princess Wan Sheng in the past, Jiuye Jiutou is quite a match...
Under Jiuye's search, the Nine-Headed Insect quickly returned, but its expression was very heavy. It was clear at a glance that Princess Wan Sheng and Long Po were not found.
This was indeed a bit unexpected. Li Yan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Your wife is not punished in hell, but has been reincarnated again?"
The nine-headed insect turned pale and said cautiously: "They are afraid that they will be used by demons, and they hope that the great master will rescue them..."
Li Yan pondered with his eyes exposed.
He will never absolve Princess Wan Sheng and Long Po from their guilt. No matter how great the Nine-Headed Insect is, it will not be enough. In the rewards and punishments for good and evil in the underworld, after a person commits a serious crime, the subsequent good deeds and virtues may not be useful.
How could you let someone else take your place?
But now Princess Wan Sheng and Long Po have not been punished in the eighteenth level of hell, but have been reincarnated. Could it be that they are among the ghosts who did not drink Meng Po soup before and directly crossed the Naihe Bridge?
What are you doing in such a hurry?
However, this situation has a good ending. The whereabouts of Princess Wan Sheng and Long Po cannot be found in the netherworld. In fact, there is another possibility...
While Li Yan was thinking, Nine-Headed Insect secretly looked at the expression of the great master.
In fact, he was deliberately pretending to be sad.
Princess Wan Sheng had never drank Meng Po soup before. After reincarnation, she occupied the body of future generations. Long Po has been borrowing dragon energy to live for thousands of years. Now she has died not long ago and can be reincarnated without being punished in the eighteenth level of hell.
, which is naturally a good thing...
After all, they still carry the memories of their previous lives. Once their memories are restored, the couple can meet again. When the time comes, he can choose a suitable physical body and he can be reunited with his wife.
Mu Xu observed that Li Yan's seventh consciousness sensed the other party's mentality, but he sighed secretly.
Regardless of his likes and dislikes, the Nine-Headed Insect really cares about his wife, but he may not be able to get what he wants!
Let’s not talk about this matter for now, the most urgent task is to take care of the conquest of the Japanese country.
"Please don't worry, sir. I will definitely destroy the small country of Fusang!"
Nine-Headed Insect was overjoyed when he heard that he could go to Japan to conquer Japan. He had been suppressed by Yamata no Orochi and Japanese practitioners for hundreds of years. Although his edges were worn away, he still held his breath. Now that he could finally go back and take revenge, he wished he would be great.
Show your divine power and sink that island country.
Jiuye was equally excited, but it was because of his personality that he wanted to go out and be impressive, so he smiled and said: "I will definitely fulfill my mission!"
Li Yan looked at these two people. Although they had the lowest status among this group of gods and Buddhas, if they were to be released, they would be unmatched by many practitioners. He warned: "Let the Ming army not be disturbed by the Japanese practitioners.
In terms of fighting, don’t get involved too much.”
Jiuye and Nine-Headed Insect were slightly startled, and quickly responded: "Yes!"
Li Yan has always been resistant to the interference of extraordinary powers in mortal struggles. After all, if he interferes too much, it will become a battle between gods and gods like the novel "The Legend of the Gods", and ordinary soldiers will suffer...
Not to mention immortals, once the cultivation methods are too involved in the battles of the world, the kind of life and death will be out of control. The lion and camel kingdom that was devoured by the golden-winged roc is a living example.
Although the Nine Tribulations are the product of the Great Wish Realm's discharge of its own desires and filth, they are indeed a tight band on the heads of practitioners, allowing the secular world to still maintain normal rules and regulations, even if the Ming Dynasty gradually declined two hundred years after its founding, this
This kind of law is also stronger than the chaos of political practice by practitioners.
After making arrangements for the conquest of Japan, Li Yan walked towards the tenth hall.
King Guang of Qin is the head of the ten kings and the lord of the first palace, while the Wheel-turning King is the lord of the tenth palace and the youngest Pluto.
The responsibility of this tenth palace is to detect ghosts in each palace, distinguish between good and evil, determine the level, and send reincarnations to the four major continents.
All ghosts who have done extremely evil things will turn into eggs and become damp, living and dying. After their sins are over, they will be reborn, but when they become human, they still have to be reincarnated in a barbarian land.
In normal times, this final finishing touch is still very important. Now the first nine halls are all in a state of exhaustion, and the tenth hall has simply been reduced to a sinecure.
Seeing Li Yan's arrival, the sullen King of Wheels changed his expression and welcomed his benefactor into the palace: "Master Li, please come quickly!"
Li Yan got straight to the point: "I came here to ask Pluto about something. Will the soul be worn out during the process of reincarnation?"
The King of Reincarnation was a little puzzled, but he still replied: "Of course, reincarnation is no child's play. Without the protection of Meng Po Tang, ordinary souls cannot survive at all."
Li Yan was slightly startled: "Protect?"
The King of Reincarnation explained: "Send to those who are reincarnated, escort them to God Meng Po, and drink the decoction to make them forget the events of their previous lives and protect their souls from reincarnation."
Only then did Li Yan realize that drinking Meng Po Tang not only cleared the memory of the past life, but also protected the soul so that it could survive the impact of reincarnation. This was quite clever, and he immediately asked: "What if in order to preserve the memory of the past life?
How about reincarnation directly without drinking Meng Po soup?"
The Wheel King snorted: "Even if there are evil magic and magic, the risk is huge. Not only can't you inherit the memory of the past life, but you may be born stupid!"
Li Yan thought that Princess Wan Sheng was beaten to death by Bajie on her way westward, and that there was a gap of hundreds of years until she was reincarnated by Tao Zhongwen. Du Jiuniang and Tao Shien had previously monitored Naihe Bridge and found those souls who did not drink Meng Po soup.
It takes a long period of time before a batch of people are put into the human world. This shows that reincarnation is indeed not something you can just take advantage of.
In this case, after he explained the situation of Princess All Saints in detail, he asked: "Can she still be reincarnated in such a situation?"
The King of Reincarnation said firmly: "No matter what means she uses, she has already escaped reincarnation once. Her soul has long been in danger, and it will be exposed even more when she enters the netherworld after death. If she cultivates in the underworld for hundreds of years, she may be able to enter reincarnation again.
Maybe, if you don’t drink Meng Po Soup and then cross the Naihe Bridge, you will be asking for death!”
Li Yan was silent.
Princess Wan Sheng and Long Po had a strong desire to survive, and in the end they were willing to cooperate and confess. They also hoped to come back after death, and of course they would not commit suicide.
But they have not been reincarnated, but they cannot be found in the underworld, so in all likelihood it will be another ending...
All souls are destroyed?
This is not easy to do in the world of Journey to the West. It is completely beyond the jurisdiction of the underworld.
Thinking of this, as soon as my mind moved, there was a mysterious feeling, locking in a certain direction.
At the end of that place is Cuiyun Palace.
Li Yan's eyes turned cold.
Princess Wan Sheng and Long Po were extreme and twisted. They committed all kinds of evil things for their own selfish desires, and even instigated Princess Chang An and Prince Zhuang Jing to kill their brother and sister. Their methods were extremely vicious. Although they finally succumbed to the situation, they were not worthy of sympathy at all.
But after they lost their use value, they immediately killed them all. The mastermind who stole the dojo and hid behind the scenes was obviously an outright demon, and he also bore the name of the Netherworld Cult Master.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, who has vowed not to become a Buddha unless hell is empty, and who has made such great aspirations, should not be subjected to such stigma and humiliation!
He who has a predestined relationship with the Buddha should certainly rectify his name!
