Chapter 20: The Secret Struggle of the Four Seas
Hearing the opportunity, Ao Yan, the Dragon King of the West Sea, thought in his heart and said, "What does the eldest brother mean?"
"There are many things involved in learning from the scriptures. Brothers, you also know a little bit about this, what we need now is to wait, wait for the Heavenly Court and the Buddha Sect to really tear their faces, at that time, it will be our chance!" Ao Guang stroked his beard and said with a smile.
"Haha, it's still the eldest brother's thoughtfulness!" Ao Yan exclaimed.
"If the second brother has nothing else to do, my brothers should also retire!" Ao Guang finished explaining, and wanted to go back.
"Okay, brothers, please!" Ao Yan straightened out his robe and sent the Dragon King of the Three Seas out of the Dragon Palace.
"Second brother, go back. We're leaving!" said the Dragon King of the North Sea, arching his hand. Be the first to leave. Immediately afterwards, the Dragon Kings of the East China Sea and the South China Sea also left one after another.
Ao Yan stood in front of the Dragon Palace, thoughtful, and then turned back to the Dragon Palace.
And the Dragon King of the Three Seas, who left, went around in a circle and went to the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea.
"Big brother, what is the important matter for you to send me to come here for a gathering in the East China Sea?" Ao Qinshun, the Dragon King of the North Sea, walked into the East China Sea Dragon Palace and asked eagerly. He wanted to go back to his Beihai directly, but as soon as he left, Ao Guang sent a message to him and asked him to gather in the Dragon Palace.
"I heard, that nine-headed insect is hiding in your Beihai, right? You are generous, can you tolerate him hiding in your Beihai, aren't you afraid that my nephew will know and turn against your uncle?" Ao Guang looked at Ao Shun and said coldly.
If you want to say that among the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas, in addition to the Dragon King of the West Sea, Ao Guang is the best for Ao Lie. When Guanyin turned Ao Lie into Ao Lie, Ao Guang was also present, and persuaded him with good words, so that Ao Lie could protect the Tang monk Xitian to learn the scriptures, and hand over the lost jade pendant to Ao Lie again.
When learning the scriptures, the nine-headed insect was destroyed by Erlang Zhenjun in Bibo Lake and fled to Beihai. thought that he had died in Beihai, but recently Ao Guang learned that the guy was saved by his fourth brother Ao Shun and had been hiding in the Beihai.
If it weren't for the fact that this guy had an affair with the Princess of All Saints, why would his nephew be angry on the wedding night, set fire to the cave house, and accidentally burned the pearl of the royal night, so he was convicted and punished to suffer in the eagle's sorrowful stream.
"Big brother, don't be angry, there must be a reason for the fourth brother to do this. Let's listen to what the fourth brother has to say first. At this time, Ao Qin stood up to play a round for Ao Shun.
"Hmph, fourth, you have to give me an explanation for this!" Ao Guang snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, and sat on his throne. Looking at the two brothers standing in the hall, he finally waved his hand and said, "Prime Minister Turtle, show the two dragon kings!"
Prime Minister Turtle received the order and ordered the two shrimp soldiers to move to their seats. After Ao Shun and Ao Qin sat down, Ao Guang waved his hand. Prime Minister Turtle and the shrimp soldiers and crabs on duty in the Dragon Palace will exit the Dragon Palace. Prime Minister Gui knew that Ao Guang was talking about family affairs again, although he was ranked first among the prime ministers of the East China Sea, second only to Ao Guang, but it was better not to participate in the family affairs of the dragon family.
"Big brother, little brother knows, because of Ao Lie's incident, the eldest brother has always been obsessed with that nine-headed insect, but it has been so long. Why does the eldest brother keep holding on?" Ao Shun said dissatisfiedly.
"Ao Shun, are you really going to force me to go to your Beihai?" Ao Guang patted the handle of the throne, stood up angrily, and called the Dragon King of the North Sea by his name.
The Dragon King of the South China Sea hurriedly stood up and persuaded him, "Big brother, don't be angry first, you are really the fourth brother, you don't know that the eldest brother cares about Ao Lie the most, why do you have to fight against the eldest brother in the matter of the nine-headed worm." ”
Ao Guang flicked his sleeves, snorted coldly, and sat down. looked at Ao Shun coldly and said, "I hope you will give me an explanation for this matter, don't force me to go to your Beihai in person!"
"Okay, now that it's over, I'll just have a showdown. The hydra is of great use to me, which is why I will protect him. As for the rest, please forgive the younger brother for not being able to say it directly. The Dragon King of the North Sea arched his hand and said.
"What do you mean, do you really want me to go on a journey?" Ao Guang had murderous intent in his eyes, staring at Ao Shun and saying word by word.
Back then, if it weren't for this nine-headed insect to disrupt the situation, how could Ao Lie's marriage be disrupted? How could he violate the rules of heaven because of a momentary anger? Ao Lie suffered for hundreds of years in the eagle stream, and the nine-headed insect was at ease and became the horse of the blue pool!
Later, on the way to learn the scriptures, he stole the Buddha's treasure, and even delusionally wanted to poison the monkey, and the two of the eight precepts. This kind of goods, now in the North Sea, is taken care of by his brother, and he is still living that free life. How does this make Ao Guang not angry?
"Ao Shun, you have to be clear, why didn't I explain this matter to the second child today. The reason why I invited you to my East China Sea is that I have already given you enough face!" Ao Guang said in a low voice.
"Hahahaha. Ao Shun laughed, and then said, "Big brother, it's all today, don't hide it between our brothers." In the matter of the Demon Court, even if my Dragon Clan can re-establish the banner, then who will have the final say in the future of the Demon Court? The second brother invited him to discuss this matter today, just because he wanted to be able to occupy the position of ruler after the establishment of the Demon Court!"
"If you really go to my Beihai today, I'll follow! Do you really think that for so many years, the four seas have followed your East China Sea as the leader, and you really think that my Beihai can't be bullied?" Ao Shun was-for-tat, not trying to make any concessions in the matter of the hydra.
"Do you really want me to start a war against you in the East China Sea or not?" Ao Guang leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.
"Alas," Ao Qin sighed and said, "Big brother, fourth brother, what are you doing here? Everyone is a brother, why do you want to make trouble to this point for an outsider now? If you really want to fight, it will hurt me within the dragon clan!"
"Hmph, third brother, do you really think that the eldest brother wants to stand up for Ao Lie? The eldest brother is biting this matter today, just trying to suppress my Beihai. Back then, the eldest brother gave the Dinghaishen needle iron to the monkey, which was nothing more than the second brother making his third prince have the same relationship with the Buddha Rock Rock!" Ao Shun sneered.
Ao Guang sat on the throne and heard this. said, "I understand, it seems that this nine-headed insect is your Beihai's backhand!"
"Yes, why can't I protect him, he will be of great use to me in the North Sea. He is a lineage of the ancient dragon, and he can be regarded as a branch of my dragon clan, if this matter is successful, how can my dragon clan not re-establish the demon court!" Ao Shun let out a bold statement.
"Big brother, second brother, both of you have a backhand, and the third brother Nanhai is indisputable with the world. The third brother's temper is the best in my world, and he won't try to do anything. My Beihai is in the four seas, and in terms of area and strength, it ranks last in the four seas. I'm the youngest of my brothers, and I don't plan ahead of time, what to fight with you!"
Hearing this, Ao Qin understood. In addition to himself, the other three brothers have been having their own calculations for so many years. The eldest brother, the Dragon King of the East China Sea, is the strongest in the four seas, whether he is now attached to the Heavenly Court, or the Dragon Clan is against the Heavenly Court, the eldest brother can ensure that he can occupy the maximum benefits.
The second brother, the Dragon King of the West Sea, killed his relatives in righteousness back then, gambled a lot, and made his son have a relationship with Buddhism. Even if the relationship between the four seas is stiff or something else happens in the future, Xihai will be able to get the support of some people on the Buddhist side.
My own South China Sea, because of my temper, I don't want to earn anything with my brothers. has been silently developing and growing, and the strength of the South China Sea Aquarium is gradually becoming stronger under its own rule.
The fourth brother is the Dragon King of the North Sea, among the four seas, the strength of the North Sea is at the bottom, and the fourth brother is the youngest among the brothers, although he doesn't want to fight with him for anything, but how can the fourth brother let the other three seas suppress him?
Today's incident seems to be the matter of the second brother summoning the Dragon King of the Four Seas to conspire with the Demon Court, but in fact, it is nothing more than expressing his calculations to the other three seas, and the eldest brother and the fourth brother are arguing endlessly because of the nine-headed insect, which is nothing more than not wanting Beihai to rise and replace him.
Between the four seas, it seems that because of this incident, they all began to tear off their disguises and began to really think about themselves.
"The matter of Dinghaishen needle iron is not what you said. Besides, I had already gone to heaven to tell the Jade Emperor. How could it be that I gave that divine needle iron to that monkey?" Ao Guang said.
"Hmph, what is the reason for this incident, big brother, you know it in your own heart. Ao Shun said coldly, "If you really want to come to my Beihai, I will continue!"
After speaking, Ao Shun flicked his sleeves, turned to leave, and strode out of the East China Sea Dragon Palace.
Ao Qin looked at Ao Guang who was sitting on the throne and opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he didn't know what to say, so he had to give up. Sitting on a chair as if you were on pins and needles.
"Hehe, third brother, the fourth brother, you don't have to believe all this. The eldest brother's personality, you know in your heart, whether it is what he said, you should have a scale in your own heart. Ao Guang looked at Ao Qin who stayed in the Dragon Palace and said with a smile.
"Big brother, little brother, I don't want to fight with you for anything. I only hope that I will not have trouble with this matter today, which will affect my unity in the four seas. Ao Qin stood up and said respectfully.
"If my dragon clan is at odds within, isn't this exactly what Heavenly Court wants to see? If it really starts out because of this matter, it will be Heavenly Court who will reap the benefits of the fisherman in the end. ”
"I have my own sense of proportion in this matter, and the third brother should not worry. There are only two brothers left today, why don't you stay in my East China Sea and have a few drinks with my eldest brother?" Ao Guang warmly invited, wanting to win over his neutral third brother.
Ao Qin arched his hand and said, "Thank you, big brother, it's just that I still have some things to deal with in the South China Sea, and I'm afraid I won't be able to stay for a long time." When my brother has time next time, I will definitely come back to visit. ”
"Then I'll send you. When Ao Guang saw this, he didn't try his best to keep it, and got up to see off Ao Qin.
"Trouble big brother. Ao Qin saluted. He knew that this was Ao Guang testing himself to see which side he was leaning into.
Outside the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, Ao Qin arched his hand and said, "Next time I come to visit the eldest brother, the younger brother has retired." ”
Ao Guang waved his hand and said, "Brother go slowly." Looking at Ao Qin in the distance, Ao Guang waved his hand, and Prime Minister Gui walked out, bent down and said, "What does the king command?"
Ao Guang exhaled softly, as if he wanted to exhale the suppressed anger in his heart. Later, he said, "Prime Minister Turtle, the East China Sea Sea Dragon Soldiers have entered a state of combat readiness, so that the Yaksha of the Sea Patrol pays more attention to the North Sea and the South China Sea movement, and there must be no mistake!"
Ao Qin returned to the South China Sea and immediately convened a meeting of the top leaders of the South China Sea in the Dragon Palace, and at the same time, after Ao Shun returned to Beihai, the sea dragon soldiers also entered a state of combat readiness, except for the West Sea, which was calm.
But the other Dragon Kings of the Three Seas all knew that the West Sea had either already carried out its actions in secret, or they had no fear and had bigger plans!
On this day, there was a crack in the harmonious relationship between the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas, and there was no longer any intention of unity. The four seas that are calm on the surface are actually hiding murderous intentions and turbulent waves!
