16.XVI
When the three of them came to the Cloud Treasure Palace, the treasure hall was already full of immortals from all walks of life, and they held their breath and stared, their faces solemn.
Taishang Laojun stood at the end of the line, the green silk that was scattered on weekdays was tied up with a green wood crown, and the corners of his lips were tight.
The atmosphere in the hall was heavy and oppressive, as if the firecrackers that were about to burst had ignited the line of fire and were about to burst.
"Nezha, Yang Jian, you're here." The Jade Emperor sat on the high cloud platform, put his hands on his knees, lowered his eyes, and said word by word.
The three of them each returned to their places and stood up, Tianpeng and Nezha glanced at each other, not knowing why, but they didn't dare to ask.
Taishang Laojun's hand was hidden under the wide sleeves, and he pinched the sweat of his hand, and his head spun rapidly.
"Do you know, that monkey ran back to Huaguo Mountain?" The Jade Emperor explained, his tone calm, as if he was just talking about a trivial matter.
Nezha felt slightly happy in his heart.
But the Jade Emperor's next sentence scattered the mood that had just relaxed in Nezha's heart.
"That monkey, I don't know how thick the sky is, and he wants to be shoulder to shoulder with my heavenly court." Speaking of this, the corners of the Jade Emperor's lips did not contain a trace of anger.
Even, there seemed to be a hint of joy in the tone.
"He actually called himself Monkey King." The Jade Emperor shook his head and smiled mockingly.
What, Nezha looked up at the Jade Emperor.
The words Monkey King were like a small hammer hammer on her head.
Nezha felt a slight headache, as if something was filling his mind and was about to gush out along the cracks that had been knocked out.
There was still no one in the Cloud Treasure Hall who spoke, and no one noticed Nezha's abnormality.
"Nezha." The Jade Emperor raised his head and tapped his middle finger on the jade case.
"Yes." Nezha shook his head vigorously, endured his headache, and walked out of the immortals.
"Go ahead, you've fought the monkey, fight again, let me see." The Jade Emperor beckoned, sent Nezha to the lower realm, and fought the monkey again.
"Jade Emperor." After Nezha left, Yang Jian walked out of the immortals, and his voice was neither humble nor arrogant.
"What?"
"What if the third prince of Nezha is defeated?" Yang Jian raised his head, stared at the Jade Emperor, and asked what he thought.
In fact, Yang Jian wanted to stare at the eyes of the Jade Emperor, but because of the clouds, he couldn't see the Jade Emperor's face.
"Defeated......" The Jade Emperor smiled and tapped the jade case with his fingertips.
The atmosphere in the main hall condensed, as if it had been covered with thick ice.
The Jade Emperor sneered, picked up the wine glass on the case, took a sip, and said, "It's a big deal if you lose, it's a big deal to let that monkey be this Monkey King." ”
In a word, it is casual and capricious.
The immortal officials raised their heads one after another, looking at the Jade Emperor in surprise.
At this moment, there was still no discussion in the Cloud Treasure Palace.
And the firecrackers that have been prepared for a long time have long been crackling in the hearts of all the gods.
Yang Jian glanced up at Taishang Laojun.
Taishang Laojun understood what Yang Jian meant, he reached out and stroked the broken hair in front of his forehead, and nodded.
The Jade Emperor smiled with satisfaction, raised his hand and dismissed the immortals, as if he had already guessed the reactions of the immortals.
Yang Jian got the order and walked out of the Cloud Treasure Hall slowly.
It was the first time he had left at such a slow pace.
The Jade Emperor took a sip of wine, turned his head sideways, turned his back to Yang Jian, and said a word to the immortal official who was serving him next to him.
Yang Jian took advantage of this to secretly open the Eye of Heaven, glanced at it quickly, and immediately suppressed the shock in his heart, collected the Eye of Heaven, and walked out steadily.
He left the main hall and walked outside the Nantian Gate, his mind heavy.
He wanted to see the Jade Emperor, but he didn't want to sweep his gaze to others.
That immortal official, he had no intention of looking at each other but accidentally saw his original appearance.
That face was exactly the same as the heavenly soldier he saw in the prison who was embarrassed by Nezha everywhere.
Unintentional or intentional, coincidence or inevitable, Yang Jian couldn't help but think deeply.
Huaguo Mountain Water Curtain Cave, the monkey wears a purple and gold crown of double dragons grabbing pearls, and two long pheasant pheasant feathers, reclining on the throne, eating grapes, and listening to the little monkeys tell jokes.
He glanced at the sky, and a stratus cloud came from the heavenly court towards Huaguo Mountain.
He smiled, stood up, stepped on the colorful auspicious clouds, wore gold armor and red clothes, held a golden hoop stick, and his eyes were like paint, and he really looked like a hero of Monkey King.
"Daughter-in-law, my grandson knew that you would come to my grandson!" The monkey watched Nezha come down from heaven on the Hot Wheels, greeted him with a smile, and said.
"You thought you listened to my words and went back to Huaguo Mountain, but you didn't expect you to run back and call yourself Monkey King!" Nezha frowned and said, "Aren't you afraid that the Jade Emperor will send someone to kill you?" ”
"What am I afraid of, what am I afraid of. How good the Great Sage is, daughter-in-law, look, you are Nezha, the third prince of Heaven, and I am the Monkey King, a serious couple. The monkey was very happy and had no worries.
"Don't make a fuss, what the hell happened to you, why did you come back all of a sudden?!" Nezha thought about it, and it was better to figure out what was going on first.
"What's going on?! The ugly Jade Emperor who didn't dare to see people actually fooled my grandson and let my grandson be a horse-letting man, why did my grandson stay in heaven? The monkey grabbed the monkey hair and said: "My grandson is a monkey who wants to protect his daughter-in-law, and he is bullied when he is an official who puts horses, my grandson can't stand this anger, and I don't want your daughter-in-law to suffer this anger in the future, you are my grandson's daughter-in-law, my grandson wants to protect you, I want to protect you, my grandson must first be powerful enough, daughter-in-law, you come down from heaven, the sky and the earth are big, and my grandson will protect you!" The monkey straightened his face, looked at Nezha, and said sternly.
"Monkeys." Nezha held a fire-tipped spear and rushed straight towards the monkey with his feet on the hot wheel.
The Hot Wheels under her feet shook violently, and her hand holding the Flame Spear was unsteady.
Her head was splitting, and countless images flashed through her mind, and she closed her eyes and held her head in her hands.
Yang Jian, the monkey, the Buddha, like a marquee, the theater is projected in her mind.
Her eyes widened, and her heart was shocked.
In fact, after living for so many years and seeing so many things, there are very few things that can surprise her.
However, the last scene in her mind made her whole body collapse and powerless.
She didn't know where the images came from or if they were credible.
But her realizations told her that these things would happen.
"Daughter-in-law, what's wrong with you?" The monkey looked at Nezha and asked worriedly.
Nezha shook his head.
The head doesn't hurt anymore.
When she opened her eyes again, there was a deep sadness in her eyes.
Her dress fluttered above the monkey, and a faint unbearability slipped through her eyes, and it was not the same as before.
When he spoke again, there was also a deep helplessness in his tone.
"Monkey, let's go, leave Huaguo Mountain."
"Daughter-in-law, what are you talking nonsense, my grandson is not afraid of anyone or anything, why is my grandson leaving?!" The monkey didn't understand why his daughter-in-law was suddenly like this.
"Monkey, I let you go, the second brother can't let you go, even if the second brother lets you go, he won't let you go!" Nezha heard his own voice roar.
"Rulai...... Who is he?! The monkey waved his hand, and his smile was still innocent, and he was not afraid of heaven and earth, and said, "No matter who he is, my grandson is not afraid!" ”
Nezha listened, the corners of his lips strained, and finally tore away a weak smile.
"Monkey, you were finally crushed under the mountain by Rulai for five hundred years."
Nezha's smile seemed to dissipate at the end of the sky and turned into a desolate gesture.
"Monkeys. You go, don't come to the Heavenly Court, and don't make a big fuss about the Heavenly Palace, for five hundred years, you can't eat, you can't move, you can't make trouble, it's very bitter. Nezha looked up, and a tear slipped under his eyes.
"Daughter-in-law, you are talking stupidly again, the person who can suppress my grandson in this world has not yet been born!" The monkey looked at Nezha's tears, and his heart tightened.
"Daughter-in-law, you have to believe in my grandson!" The monkey's tone seemed to be a prudent oath to the heavens.
"You ......" Nezha put away the spear, stood on the cloud, smiled and said, "Monkey, I won't fight you, I'll go to the Jade Emperor and say I'm defeated, you can go." ”
After Nezha finished speaking, he turned around and returned to Heaven, not wanting to look back again.
Above the Heavenly Court Tilt.
The immortal official poured a glass of wine into the Jade Emperor's wine bottle, propped his head and asked, "Why did the Jade Emperor promise the name of the monkey Monkey King?" ”
"What this monkey did this time reassures me." The Jade Emperor said.
"Rest assured?"
"Well, if a person is ambitious, he will only hide himself and will not allow himself to make a mistake. But he said what he wanted directly, which showed that he was a reckless person. The Jade Emperor paused, as if he was very satisfied with his analysis.
He smiled and continued: "A reckless person with a lot of ability, a careless person may become a sharp weapon, I don't dare to take this risk, it is better to fatten him up and raise him first." ”
"Isn't it a pity to keep it wasted?" The immortal official still doesn't understand, shouldn't powerful people be given heavy responsibilities and used for their own use.
The Jade Emperor shook his head and said, "I said, I don't dare to take risks, if he opens his mind, if I can't stop him, I will be the one who suffers." So, what's the matter with one less sharp weapon, not to mention that compared to this, the most important thing is ah......" The Jade Emperor smiled and took a sip of wine, but did not continue.
"The most important thing is ......?" The immortal official had the courage to ask.
"The most important thing is ......," the Jade Emperor looked at the stratus clouds and said, "I naturally won't give anyone else." Let others help him open this trick, and become a sharp weapon for others to threaten me. ”
The immortal official nodded, followed the Jade Emperor's gaze, and suddenly understood.
He made a big salute to the Jade Emperor and said, "Heavenly Venerable is wise. ”
"You don't need to serve here, go to the prison, the things there are still waiting to be taken care of."
"Yes."
