Chapter 453: Return to Heavenly Court
Whether it is Zhu Bajie or Sha Wujing, it is not the first time they have met Mu Feng, they have been "taught" by Mu Feng hundreds of years ago, and Mu Feng's strength has been deeply rooted in their hearts.
Coupled with Mu Feng's current reputation, the two of them did not dare to have the intention of being enemies of him in front of him.
"Why don't you two move?"
Seeing that Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing didn't react after shouting for a long time, Tang Seng was very puzzled, you know, when he encountered monsters before, he didn't need to open his mouth at all, and these two people would actively rush forward. Now, however, they have become two statues.
Seeing that he still wanted to urge, Zhu Bajie was afraid that he would offend Mu Feng, so he hurriedly said: "Master, this is not a monster, but the Emperor Haotian." ”
"Huh?"
Tang Seng was stunned for a moment, a little incredulous, it took a long time for him to come back to his senses, and immediately walked in front of Mu Feng, bowed, and said respectfully: "The poor monk didn't know that the Emperor of Heaven had arrived, so he mistakenly thought it was...... It's a monster, and there are many offenses, and I hope to forgive my sins. ”
Mu Feng waved his hand, "When there's nothing for you here, stand aside." ”
“……”
Tang Seng didn't know what to say for a while, only looked at Mu Feng in surprise. This Heavenly Emperor seems to be a little different from what he imagined......
If it were other times, seeing him being treated so rudely, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and others would definitely jump out and scold each other and save some face for him, but now, no one spoke for him.
After hesitating for a while, he finally said: "Since the Emperor of Heaven has an order, the poor monk does not dare to disobey." ”
After that, he stepped aside.
Mu Feng obviously didn't expect such a result, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. You must know that he is ready, but whenever Tang Seng dares to say the word "no", he will immediately kill him in the name of resisting and disobeying the order. Without this golden cicada, the matter of learning from the scriptures will naturally not be able to continue.
But to his surprise, Tang Seng was so cowardly, so, it was not good to attack him directly.
Seeing that Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing were only looking at themselves quietly, and no one took the initiative to speak, the atmosphere was a little awkward, and he hesitated, so he had to break the silence by himself.
Mu Feng set his eyes on Zhu Bajie, and said with a smile: "Marshal Tianpeng, do you still remember me?" ”
"How can you not remember? Back then, I privately occupied the Emperor's cave mansion, and I still owe the Emperor a share of cause and effect. Zhu Bajie had a flattering smile on his face.
"Just remember. Back then, you made some small mistakes in the heavenly court, and were demoted to the mortal world by the Jade Emperor, and now so many years have passed, and the sins you deserve have been suffered, I want to re-seal your Marshal Tianpeng, and take charge of the 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals of Tianhe, I don't know if you are willing? ”
"Is that true?"
Zhu Bajie was pleasantly surprised, he hated the current life, and he was the first in the foursome who wanted to break up the group the most.
When he was in Heavenly Court, his strength was very good, and with the Xuandu Grand Master as the backstage, he was very free. But now, not only has his strength been greatly damaged, but he has also become a wild boar. If it was just like this, he would still be able to accept it, but what he couldn't stand the most was that now he was not only under the control of a mortal monk, but also bullied by a monkey, which was equivalent to pressing his dignity on the ground and rubbing it repeatedly.
If he could return to Heaven and restore the identity of Marshal Tianpeng, he would definitely be willing.
"You don't joke, since I have already opened my mouth, it is naturally true, as long as you agree, I can bring you back to Heaven now." Mu Feng said sincerely.
Zhu Bajie was excited, and immediately wanted to agree, but then he seemed to think of something, and the smile on his face suddenly froze.
He thought of the request of the Xuandu Grand Master. Before worshipping Tang Seng as a teacher, Master Xuandu once looked for him, hoping that he would obey Guanyin Bodhisattva's arrangement, escort Tang Seng to seek the true scriptures, and join Buddhism after the merit was completed. In this way, Taishang Laojun returned a cause and effect to Buddhism, and he could also get a bodhisattva in Buddhism, which was a win-win situation.
If he was to choose by himself, he would definitely choose Marshal Tianpeng, after all, Marshal Tianpeng was in charge of Tianhe's soldiers and horses, which was much more majestic and freer than in Buddhism.
However, if he really did this, it would be tantamount to disobeying the Xuandu Grand Master, and the Xuandu Grand Master obeyed Lao Tzu's orders, which means that he would offend the saint......
After hesitating for a long time, he finally shook his head regretfully, "Thank you Emperor Heaven for your kindness, I just promised to escort Master to the West Heaven, and I must not give up halfway." ”
Mu Feng seemed to see through his thoughts, and asked with a smile, "Are you worried that you won't be able to explain to the Taiqing Saint after returning to Heavenly Court?" In fact, you don't need to worry about anything, after returning to Heaven, I and the sect behind me will protect your safety. ”
Zhu Bajie denied: "It's not what the Emperor thinks, I'm just acting according to my own heart. ”
"Are you sure your heart isn't to break up? Your wife in the mortal world, Gao Cuilan, is afraid that she will marry someone else in a few years. The Bull Demon King couldn't help but interject and directly pierced him.
Zhu Bajie was afraid of Mu Feng, but he was not very afraid of him, and suddenly became angry and said: "Don't spew blood, when did I think about breaking up the gang in a branch ceremony?" Escorting Master to the Western Heaven is my heart. ”
The Bull Demon King wanted to continue to expose his scars, but was stopped by Mu Feng.
"Since you don't want to, forget it, I know your concerns, and I can understand them."
After saying this, Mu Feng stopped looking at him and moved his gaze to Sha Wujing again.
"General Roller Blinds, don't come unharmed, right? I wonder if you would like to return to Heaven as a general? Of course, with your talents, you will no longer be asked to do the work of rolling the curtains, but a real heavenly general who is incense in the world. ”
"This ......"
Sha Wujing hesitated.
He is different from Zhu Bajie, Zhu Bajie has the supervision of the saint behind him, and he does not dare to give up easily, but there is no such force behind him - there was originally, he is a chess piece that the Jade Emperor is ready to use to repay the cause and effect of Buddhism, but unfortunately, the Jade Emperor was overthrown by Mu Feng, and those who are already dead can no longer die.
In this way, he has long been unfettered, and his degree of freedom is much higher than that of Zhu Bajie.
Immediately, he glanced at Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, and then at Tang Seng, and finally gritted his teeth, and finally made a decision, immediately knelt on one knee, and saluted Mu Feng: "The last general, Sha Wujing, thank the Emperor for his great kindness, and is willing to return to Heaven." ”
"Wujing!"
"Senior brother!"
Tang Seng, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie all looked at him in surprise, in their impressions, Sha Wujing has always been an honest man who obeys his words, but he doesn't want to rebel so easily!
Mu Feng ignored them, and immediately laughed: "Hahaha, okay, I have added another general to Heavenly Court." I hope that you can help me maintain the order of the Three Realms with all your heart, which is a matter of immeasurable merit, far better than spreading the scriptures in Nanzhan Prefecture. ”
"If you can win the favor of the Emperor of Heaven, the last general will be grateful, and he will live up to the high hopes of the Emperor!" Sha Wujing's answer was sonorous and powerful.
Mu Feng was very satisfied, and without hesitation, he immediately summoned the Fengshen List and engraved their names into it.
Although what he said was good, in fact, the position he gave Sha Wujing was still not much, at least it was far less than Marshal Tianpeng. Of course, it won't be too bad, as he promised, above the general of the shutter, he is considered a median general.
In this regard, Sha Wujing is already very satisfied.
Seeing that the wood was already in the boat, Tang Seng sighed, his expression was a little sentimental, he had a feeling of being betrayed, and not only betrayed himself, but also betrayed his beliefs.
In a depressed mood, he was no longer far from staying here, and immediately saluted Mu Feng and said coldly: "If the Emperor of Heaven has nothing else to do, the poor monk will retire." ”
At this moment, he had a lot of complaints about Mu Feng, the Heavenly Emperor, and was unwilling to face him again.
However, Mu Feng smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, I still have some things to deal with." ”
After that, he once again set his eyes on Zhu Bajie and asked, "Zhu Gangguan, since you don't want to return to Tiancang, how should the cause and effect of the debt to me be calculated?" ”
"Huh?" Zhu Bajie was stunned, at this time, the attitude of the Heavenly Emperor seemed to be much worse than before......
For some reason, he had a sense of foreboding in his heart.
Still, he stubbornly said, "That cause and effect...... That cause and effect...... I wonder how the Emperor wants me to pay it back? ”
After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't figure out a way to repay it, so he had to throw the problem back to Mu Feng.
Mu Feng lamented: "Although taking my cave mansion is a great cause and effect, I actually don't want to embarrass you, but I am the Emperor of Heaven, if I don't do something, I will damage my majesty and be ridiculed by the world." If it is serious, it will even cause the Gang to be reversed, the heavenly court will be in turmoil, and I don't know how many living beings will die because of this. For the sake of the common people in the world, and for the order of the Three Realms, I have to take action against you. ”
Listening to his words, Zhu Bajie inexplicably felt a chill running directly from the soles of his feet to the back of his head. Even the excuse that the order of the Three Realms and the common people in the world are so great and righteous has been moved out, I am afraid that I will not end well.
Thinking of this, he subconsciously retreated, and asked in horror: "Heavenly Emperor, I will return that cave to you now, if it is not enough, I can apologize to you, and it will never damage your majesty!" ”
Mu Feng sighed and shook his head, "It's late." ”
With that, his mind moved, and he summoned a sharp sword. The sword was shining with red light, and it was murderous, it was the Trapping Immortal Sword.
Tang Seng was just a mortal, he couldn't stand the murderous aura above at all, his face turned pale suddenly, and all kinds of terrifying visions appeared in his mind, almost fainting with fright. Fortunately, Sun Wukong noticed this scene and hurriedly rushed to his side, using mana to help him counteract those murderous aura.
However, he can only do it to this extent, as for whether Mu Feng will make a move on Zhu Bajie, he can't control it, and he can't manage it.
Seeing Mu Feng approaching step by step, Zhu Bajie panicked. Not long ago, he was kind enough to try to recruit himself and return to Heaven, but he didn't want to turn his face if he said it. He hasn't fully reacted until now, why is the situation like this?
He asked Sun Wukong not far away for help with his eyes, but Sun Wukong pretended not to see it and only protected Tang Seng. Immediately, he glanced in the direction of Lingshan again, hoping that someone from Buddhism would come to the rescue.
When Mu Feng was less than five meters away from him, he twisted and looked at the defense line of Tushi Palace, and shouted wildly in his heart: Sage Master, Master Xuandu, if you don't show up again, I will be killed!
He also thought about escaping, but thinking of Mu Feng Da Luo Jinxian's cultivation and the rumored weird teleportation technique, he finally dispelled this thought.
At this time, Mu Feng sighed again, "I'm sorry, I'll borrow your head." ”
After saying that, no longer hesitated, his body suddenly rushed forward, and he came to Zhu Bajie in an instant, and the trapped immortal sword in his hand slashed straight at Zhu Bajie's head with the breath of destroying the world.
At the last moment, Zhu Bajie suddenly knelt down with a plop, and shouted loudly at the same time: "The Emperor of Heaven is slow, and he is willing to return to Heaven to repay the Emperor of Heaven for cause and effect!" ”
Harvest!
The Trapping Immortal Sword stopped at the door of his head in time, and even cut off some of his hair. If he had said this slowly, then a few tenths of a second, he would probably be dead by now.
Rao was like this, and he was still scared enough that for the first time he felt so close to death, that he almost collapsed to the ground.
"Do you really want to return to Heaven? But willingly? Mu Feng's faint voice sounded.
"The last general is willing, the last general is willing, and the re-heavenly court is completely out of his heart!" Zhu Bajie's voice was very loud and his attitude was very resolute, as if it was not enough to express his mood at the moment.
"Since you want to return to Heaven so much, I can't refuse, so let it be for you."
After speaking, Mu Feng did not hesitate, took out the god list again, and added his name to it.
Knowing that he had successfully saved his life, Zhu Bajie finally breathed a sigh of relief, but soon, his face changed, and he blurted out: "General Divide Water? ”
This is an interrogation sentence, and the object of his inquiry is naturally Mu Feng.
"Any questions?" Mu Feng glanced at him faintly.
If he had promised to return to Heaven at the beginning, Mu Feng would definitely re-crown him as Marshal Tianpeng, but now, don't even think about it. If it weren't for the fact that he was a disciple of the Xuandu Grand Master, even if he finally compromised, Mu Feng would not keep him, after all, this kind of twisted melon by his side is a time bomb, and the ghost knows if he will be yin at a critical time.
However, in order to sabotage the matter of learning the scriptures, it is nothing to get him into the heavenly court first, and after the matter of learning the scriptures is completely blown out, it is a matter of finding a random reason to drive him out of the heavenly court.
In fact, because of the relationship between the Taiqing Sage, Mu Feng did not intend to kill him from the beginning, and the ultimate goal was to force him to submit.
However, what he didn't know was that even if he did this, he still offended the Taiqing Sage.
Archmage Xuandu had been paying attention to Zhu Bajie, and after sensing that his qi was reconnected with Heavenly Court, he immediately frowned, and without saying a word, he flew towards Tushi Palace.
In the Tushi Palace, Taishang Laojun was alchemy next to the alchemy furnace, and when he saw Xuandu suddenly appear, he couldn't help but glance at him lightly and asked: "You are in such a hurry, is there an accident in Qingniu, or something has happened in Tiancang?" ”
Xuandu said solemnly: "It's Tianpeng, he has become a god of heaven again!" ”
