Chapter Seventy-One: The Search

In the conference room, several projectors sat around the long table with solemn expressions.

They are the key figures with the highest strength and status among the immortals and Buddhas, and they are also the main formulators of the scripture study plan.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the projection of Lingji Bodhisattva, and he was nervously reporting on the aftermath of that evil ** incident.

“…… At present, emergency soul recovery has been carried out in time for the entire area, the kamikaze cannon has also been folded and brought back, and all traces left on the Yellow Wind Ridge have been removed. Lingji Bodhisattva wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead with his cuffs and whispered, "Due to my lack of experience in dealing with such incidents, I failed to detect the enemy's attempts early, which had an extremely bad impact on the operation of learning from the scriptures. I am willing to bear all the culpability, please punish accordingly. ”

After speaking, he lowered his head, not daring to face the Buddha on the other side of the long table.

After a period of suppressed silence, Rulai said slowly: "The incident happened suddenly, and the other party's methods were unexpected, so it is understandable to be at a loss for a while." Your punishment may be mitigated as appropriate, but your authority must be curtailed. Let's step back first, and after that, you don't have to participate in matters related to Journey to the West. ”

Lingji Bodhisattva performed the Buddha salute, disconnected, and the projection flickered a few times before disappearing.

"When I arrived at the area that Lingji was responsible for, there was such a serious accident. The other party can also do it under the nose of the Bodhisattva, which is really unexpected. After a century of observing the behavior of the Yellow Wind Monster, no one expected it to become a vulnerability that could be exploited by the enemy, and it seems that our opponent is not simple. The Jade Emperor crossed his fingers and said meaningfully.

Rulai lowered his eyelids lightly and said in a deep voice: "Journey to the West is a huge project, and if there is a problem in one link, it does not mean that the fault is all on him." It is also a dereliction of duty that we did not leave a clear enough monitoring record after the accident. ”

On the other side, Taishang Laojun lightly twisted his long beard and said: "It should be the most basic habit to use reconnaissance planes to monitor the area you are responsible for. The part that Tai Bai Xing is responsible for has left a detailed image record, so that it will not go untraced. Lingji Bodhisattva is too confident to have this omission. ”

"Through the memory analysis of the souls recovered in the area, the reincarnation network has generated polymorphic profiles of those villains, and there is not much need for traditional video recording." Rulai retorted quietly, "Now that they have acquired the appearance of those three people, they can't escape from the palm of my hand." ”

"Oh? How did the Buddha plan to find out about them? The Jade Emperor asked, "Knowing the appearance of a grain of sand may not be able to locate it in the desert." ”

"We have millions of Arhats and tens of millions of heavenly soldiers, and we are afraid that we will not be able to turn them out? Don't forget, Jade Emperor, one of those three is your former subordinate, such a conspicuous target, you can see it wherever you flee. ”

The Jade Emperor's eyebrows twitched, but he didn't reply. He was naturally impressed by the canopy he had framed with his own hands. I didn't expect that kid to dare to rebel like this after being demoted to mortal, he really didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

"Of course, it is too trivial to make a large-scale dispatch of divine soldiers in order to capture a few small characters. And when mortals see it, they will think that we value those three villains very much, and they may become interested in them. This has happened before. As he spoke, Ru looked in Yang Jian's direction, "Therefore, I hope to get the assistance of Erlang Zhenjun and use the prism to lock them." ”

Yang Jian, who was named by him, still leaned on the back of the chair absentmindedly, and flatly refused: "The prism system has a special purpose and is not subject to anyone's instructions. ”

Rulai's face sank, and he said unhappily: "Yang Jian, the prism system is the result of the joint efforts of Heavenly Court and Leiyin Temple, don't treat it as your private property." It is true that the special authority of the Inspectorate was set by everyone, but why is the energy quota consumed on the prism so large recently? Daily monitoring work inevitably does not require such a large amount of energy, what is the purpose of you to use the prism so wantonly? ”

"All I can tell you is no comment."

"You ......"

Yang Jian shook his head and said, "Look, I said I have no comment, and you are not happy. Do you have to expose my bottom to be cool? I'm afraid that no one here likes to hear me say it in person. ”

The Jade Emperor showed a light smile and deliberately made eye contact with Rulai. If you have no choice but to put your anger back into your stomach and say, "Well, since you can't dispatch the prism, please transfer 100,000 heavenly soldiers, temporarily obey the command of Buddhism, and participate in the search." ”

"We can cooperate with this." The Jade Emperor promised, "As for the people who take the scriptures, what are you going to do?" Do you immediately recall Shenfang and modify its memories? ”

Guanyin Bodhisattva, who was sitting next to Nyorai, immediately said, "Absolutely not. This experience has a deep impact on the person who learned the scriptures, and directly modifying the memory in the ** state is likely to cause irreparable damage to Shenfang's brain. Learning from the experience cannot be given up halfway, the Chang'an refuge is the last spark, and we have no chance to start again. ”

"So does Guanyin have a clever plan?"

"I will talk to him personally at the right time, and I will say that this is a test set by the Buddha. I hope he can break the demons in his heart as soon as possible and return to the right path. ”

After hearing this, everyone nodded silently and decided to do it according to this plan.

Guanyin also said: "In addition, the subsequent disaster arrangements will be adjusted. In order to avoid the recurrence of similar incidents, try to minimize the use of monsters with unstable factors such as the Yellow Wind Monster, and turn them into monsters under stable control, which requires everyone's cooperation, do you agree? ”

There was a chorus of approval in the room.

The Jade Emperor pondered for a moment and said, "I will send someone to sort out the details of the canopy and send it to you to assist in the search." As for the other two, who knows? ”

Everyone shook their heads.

Lingji's report said that the woman had the ability to shapeshift, but that alone could not confirm her identity. Over the centuries, the Nether has produced too many youkai, a small number of which we haven't documented, and maybe she's one of them. "She can change her appearance, and she also has a weapon that can cut through the brocade robe, and her arrest priority is set to the highest." The canopy is secondary. Speaking of the mortal at the end...... What is his special ability? ”

"I talked to the Bear Monster about the performance of those people, and he said that in the process of attacking the Yellow Wind Monster, he was defeated by the woman, and the mortal didn't make a move from beginning to end, so he didn't see any skills." Guanyin replied.

When Yang Jian heard this, he glanced at her and found that the other party was also looking at him.

The group continued to discuss the other details of the incident, and Rulai and the Jade Emperor each deployed some follow-up tasks, and then announced the end of the meeting, and the projections were gone.

Yang Jian was still sitting in his seat, with his feet cocked on the long table. This is his own conference room, using his real body. At this moment, there is also a projection left, and the blue beacon on her side turns green, indicating that she has turned on the private dialogue mode.

"They have been immortals for hundreds of years, so they naturally disdain to remember the faces of a few cannon fodder mortals in the scripture team. But I do, and I'm sure you do. Guanyin smiled, "That person, as an entourage from Chang'an, should have died in the fire of Guanyin Monastery a long time ago, didn't he?" ”

Yang Jian smirked, turned his head to look at her, and said, "You did it on purpose?" ”

"Luring you with false news from people who have learned scriptures, yes." Guanyin asked rhetorically, "How can my own scripture learner not recognize me?" ”

What about the memory of the Immortal Buddha, the knowledge of the heavenly realm stored in the memory in advance, was a lie from the beginning. The only way to deal with the people who have learned the scriptures is to improve their physique and improve their intelligence, both of which are both. The only difference is that the later created Shenfang is subconsciously implanted with hints that strengthen faith, the so-called Buddha mind.

From the information that Xuanzang sent back to him, Yang Jian had already discovered the difference between Shenfang's performance and the information in his hands. It's just too late, when he came out of the Valley of the Two Realms and was able to check the information, Xuanzang had already escaped by the fire of the Zen Temple.

"So, why haven't you debunked him all this time?" Yang Jian frowned and said, "What Xuanzang did, I'm afraid it's out of your arrangement, especially this time." ”

"That's exactly why I didn't debunk him. I also began to be curious about the miraculous changes of this outcast. Guanyin Zhengse said, "Since everyone has made it clear, I will tell you clearly." Erlang Zhenjun, from now on, you must not interfere in Xuanzang's affairs, otherwise, I can only take action against you. ”

With that, she cut off the communication.

Yang Jian put down his feet on the table and sat upright.

He thought of a lot of things in this moment. Xuanzang's cooperative attitude at the beginning, his fake death, and his outrageous actions this time.

Suddenly he understood something.

"You're wrong, Guanyin. In this game, the dominance is still mine. ”
