Chapter 229: The Past of the Black Chicken Country
"If Your Majesty doesn't think the poor monk is despicable, you can tell the truth of the matter, and the poor monk should do his best to help him."
Vaguely, he finally remembered Tang Sanzang, who seemed to have such a catastrophe, and said compassionately and peacefully.
As if infected by Tang Sanzang's tone, the demeanor of the king of Wuji Country was no longer the sad and panicked just now, but stabilized a lot, and he told the general story in detail.
He is the founder of the Wuji country, and he can be regarded as diligent and loving the people, wise and thrifty, but five years ago, the Wuji country suffered an unprecedented disaster, drought every year, grass did not grow, and the people starved to death......
Hearing this, Tang Sanzang's expression couldn't help but froze.
Today's Tang Sanzang is no more lonely than the original, and naturally knows that the climate of the three realms is basically formulated by the heavenly court, theoretically speaking, it is reasonable for nature to be in the wind and rain everywhere, even if there is occasional rainfall and the immortal gods are negligent, there should not be a situation of drought year after year.
Unless...... Therefore, it is thought that there may be other calculations.
It's just that Tang Sanzang didn't have the meaning of speaking for the time being, and just listened quietly.
And since the catastrophe, the king of the black chicken country opened a warehouse for disaster relief, but soon, with the size of the black chicken country fell into the warehouse empty, the desperate situation of money and food, at that time, not only the court ministers stopped, but the king of the black chicken country also suffered with all the people, bathed and fasted, burned incense and prayed day and night.
It's a pity that everything has not improved in the slightest, and when the country of Wuji is about to die in this seemingly endless catastrophe, there is a true Taoist with vast powers, calling for wind and rain, turning stones into gold, and doing everything.
Fortunately, he went to the altar to pray, and the black chicken country, which had been dry for a long time, finally ushered in nectar, and since then, the black chicken country has once again recovered its past wind and rain.
And the king of Wuji country also felt his kindness, not only worshiped him as a national teacher, but also worshiped him eight times, called him "brother", and slept and ate together.
!?
The last routine, Tang Sanzang is a little familiar.
Why do the emperors of this period like to come to such a hand?
The operation of the king of the Wuji Kingdom to treat the Quanzhen Taoist is almost exactly the same as Li Er's operation to the poor monk, and even if the poor monk was not very good at that time, he was deeply touched, and the idea of being willing to work for Li Er was born in his heart.
It's just that Tang Sanzang looked at the tragic situation in front of him that the king of the Black Chicken Country only had a wisp of unjust soul left, and even faintly his soul was deeply contaminated with water vapor, and even Tang Sanzang, who was sitting opposite the king of the Black Chicken Country, felt that wisp of water vapor, but it made Tang Sanzang probably guess the result.
Sure enough, according to what the king of the Wuji country said, the king of the Wuji country, who thought that with the help of the Quanzhen Daoist, the Wuji country would make the Wuji country and the people safe, but when he was alone with the Quanzhen Taoist to enjoy the spring, and when he swam to the octagonal glazed well next to the rockery in the imperial garden, he was pushed down by the Quanzhen Taoist and sealed the well.
And the Quanzhen Taoist himself changed into the appearance of the king of the Wuji Kingdom, occupied his country, and directly took away his two classes of civil and military affairs, four hundred court officials, three princesses and queens, and concubines of the six courts.
Hearing this, Tang Sanzang couldn't help but sigh slightly, sympathizing with the king of the Wuji Kingdom.
It seems that no matter where you are, you have to think twice before you are asked to climb mountains and play in the water.
Now the king of the black chicken country is careless, but he has been impersonated to replace his life, how sad?
Even if Tang Sanzang was willing to help him and help him regain the throne, this life of being replaced for three years was a passing and gone forever.
What's more, if the courtiers of the king of the Wuji country, the queen concubines know that they have misidentified the king, what face should they treat the real king of the black chicken country in the future.
This kind of plot can be called a bull's head...... Ahem, it makes people turn their heads and sigh.
And when the king of Wuji Kingdom mentioned the all-true Taoist again, his eyebrows and eyes were full of resentment, and he wanted to crush the all-true Taoist to ashes.
It's just that after listening carefully to the experience of the king of the black chicken country, the monkey on the side asked suspiciously.
"That Quanzhen Daoist has this ability, I think he is a well-known figure in the two worlds of gods and Buddhas, since you are dead, why don't you go straight to the underworld, go to the Yin Si Yama to complain about your grievances, and go to the heavenly court to verify the situation, why did you come to my old master Sun, but why?"
The king of the black chicken country sighed and said. "This elder doesn't know that the Quanzhen Daoist not only has great powers, but also has a wide range of contacts, and after I died, he also planned to go to the gods to complain about his grievances, but he was shocked to find that the city god would drink with him, the Sea Dragon King was related to him, Dongyue Tianqi was his friend, and the Ten Palaces Yama was even more brother and brother to him......"
"In that case, where can I go to complain?"
"Then how do you know the kindness of coming to my old master to coax him?" The monkey, who always felt that something was not quite right, asked.
"This is thanks to the kindness of the night wandering god and the compassion of my sorrow, so I was told that there is a holy monk from the Eastern Tang Dynasty, which is my only vitality." The king of the black chicken country said truthfully.
"Night Wanderer?" The monkey scoffed disdainfully.
In fact, don't say it's a monkey, even Tang Sanzang also feels that there is a big reason for it, and it must not be as simple as it seems.
And combined with what the king of Wuji Country said, Tang Sanzang generally recalled some memories related to his previous life.
If Tang Sanzang is not mistaken, it should be that the king of the Black Chicken Country offended a certain Bodhisattva, and then the Bodhisattva sent his mount Nether Incarnation Daoist to take revenge on the king of the Black Chicken Country.
Looking back like this now, Tang Sanzang really feels a little ridiculous, this Bodhisattva is really a society.
It's just that Tang Sanzang won't take this kind of speculation seriously, but thought about it a little and said.
"What Your Majesty said, the poor monk naturally believes it, but the poor monk has something to inquire about, and asks Your Majesty to tell the truth."
"Holy monk, please ask, but if I can know, I will not dare to hide it." The king of the black chicken country said in a loud voice.
"Amitabha, the thing that the poor monk asked is that His Majesty believed in Buddhism during his lifetime, or did he believe in the Tao, or did he not believe in these things." Tang Sanzang asked softly and gently.
As soon as these words came out, they were really like thunder in the ears of the king of the black chicken country.
If it is based on common sense, the king of Wuji Kingdom has asked the holy monks, whether it is for the sake of good face or to flatter the holy monks, he should speak out and believe in Buddhism.
However, when the king of Wuji Kingdom looked up at Tang Sanzang, he found that the holy monk in front of him only had compassion and peace in his eyes, without the slightest sense of embarrassment.
For a while, after the king of Wuji Country was entangled in his heart for a moment, he spit out softly. "I believed in Taoism when I was alive."
