Wukong was ordered to enter the palace, and the Jade Emperor said, "Wukong, are you here?" Wukong bowed and replied: "Your Majesty, I'm here." ”

The Jade Emperor asked again: "What are you doing when you don't guarantee that your master is going west to learn scriptures and running to my Lingxiao Palace?"

Wukong said: "Your Majesty, I am here to ask for rain in Fengxian County. ”

The Jade Emperor said: "Oh, has your scripture-learning team arrived at Tianzhu?"

Wukong said: "It's here, it's here, I believe I'll be able to reach the West Heaven Da Lei Yin Temple soon." ”

The Jade Emperor said: "Wukong, this county marquis of Fengxian County does not respect the gods and deserves to be punished, so you don't care about this idle matter." ”

Wukong said: "Your Majesty, the two of them quarrel and fight behind closed doors, it's just his housework. I think you'll forgive him. ”

The Jade Emperor said: "It's his family's business that the two of them want to quarrel and fight, so I don't bother to care." But he overturned the offering table and let the dogs eat the tribute, which was not a simple matter. If everyone did what he did, wouldn't all the gods and Buddhas in the sky have to drink the northwest wind. ”

Wukong said: "Your Majesty, I have already asked him in detail, and he said that he only made such a big mistake by short-circuiting his brain at that time, and he regretted it very much afterwards, and I hope that Your Majesty can judge him for an unintentional mistake." ”

The Jade Emperor said: "Wukong, you can't be deceived by his rhetoric. If you think about it, if he has the slightest heart to worship the gods, he will never be angry with the tribute to the heavens, let alone feed the tribute to the dogs. He doesn't look up to the gods, so why should the gods bless him?"

Wukong said: "Your Majesty, the water of the rivers and seas transpires to form clouds and mist, and the clouds and mist gather and the electric charge is stored in them, even when it is saturated, lightning and thunder roar, and heavy rain pours, this is the natural law of the operation of the Three Realms, and there is really nothing to bless or not." ”

The Jade Emperor said: "No, no, the Heavenly Court is the control center that maintains the normal operation of the Three Realms. If you don't respect the heavens, the heavens will not bless you, the solar terms will be impermanent, and if you are impermanent, there will be no rain. ”

Wukong said: "But the poor monk has also heard that there was a rule at the beginning of the establishment of the Three Realms: the Great Dao is fifty, and the Tianyan is forty-nine. Fifty minus forty-nine equals one, so we want to leave this line of life! Your Majesty, I'm not mistaken, right?"

The Jade Emperor said: "Yes, there is indeed this regulation. ”

Wukong said: "In this case, please also ask Your Majesty to raise your noble hand and leave this opportunity for the sentient beings of Fengxian County to make up for it." ”

The Jade Emperor said: "What you said, I have obeyed it." That's why the agreement of Rice Mountain and Face Mountain was established. ”

Wukong said: "That rice mountain, the face of the mountain is twenty zhang high, how many years and months will it take to be eaten up? ”

The Jade Emperor said: "Even if it is a nanometer or a picometer of vitality, it is a ray of vitality." ”

Wukong said: "Your Majesty, if the marquis of the county makes a mistake, you can punish him himself, why bother to bring the people of a county to the burden?

The Jade Emperor said: "Wukong, when you first arrived in that place, you didn't know all the details, and I don't blame you." You'd better leave this matter alone. ”

Wukong said: "Is there another hidden meaning in this matter? The poor monk is stupid, and I ask Your Majesty to solve my doubts." ”

The Jade Emperor was about to talk, and Tai Bai Xing flashed to the front of the class, and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has a play." ”

The Jade Emperor said: "Aiqing, please speak." ”

Jin Xing said: "Your Majesty, Weichen believes that although the marquis of Fengxian County made a big mistake, he also suffered from three years of drought. Now Tang Seng and his apprentices are willing to intercede for him, and it seems that it is also arranged by heaven. Please also ask Your Majesty to give this prince a chance to mend his life for the sake of them traveling west to learn scriptures and purify all sentient beings. ”

The Jade Emperor said: "What does Aiqing mean?"

Jin Xing said: "Weichen has a suggestion: if the Tang monk and apprentice can persuade the county marquis to lead the people to pay homage with incense, thank the heavens, blame themselves, and worship the gods, he will be pardoned for his crimes." This can show His Majesty's benevolence and love for the people, and secondly, it can be regarded as a convenience for Tang monks and apprentices. It's the best of both worlds. ”

The Jade Emperor said: "Aiqing's words are very good, and the widow is accurate. Wukong, go back and persuade the people of that county. If it succeeds, it can be regarded as a great good deed. ”

Wukong thanked him and said, "Your Majesty's magnanimity is the blessing of the Three Realms. I will go down and persuade them well, and I will not live up to your majesty's trust. ”

After speaking, Wukong bowed down and bowed again, and the Jade Emperor waved his hand: "You can go." ”

As soon as Wukong left, the Jade Emperor asked, "Aiqing, didn't you say before that you can't loosen your mouth at will?"

Jin Xing said: "Wei Chen really said so. ”

The Jade Emperor said again: "It's obvious that the monkey is making trouble unreasonably, why do you want to relieve him from the siege?"

Jin Xing said: "Your Majesty, this monkey has changed." ”

The Jade Emperor said: "Isn't he still the Monkey King? ”

Jin Xing said: "Didn't Your Majesty find out, today's Monkey King is polite and respectful to His Majesty, where is he still like that Wukong back then?"

The Jade Emperor said: "Yes, the monkey didn't understand etiquette, behaved arrogantly, and played wild at every turn, and didn't take the widow in his eyes at all." Now that he has entered the Buddhist gate, he knows more about the rules. ”

Jin Xing said: "No, no! This monkey doesn't understand the rules, but knows how to restrain himself." ”

The Jade Emperor said, "Is there a difference between the two?"

Jin Xing said: "Of course there is." An arrogant person suddenly becomes less arrogant, not really cowardly, but more low-key. Think about it again, did the Monkey King ever say what he said today?"

The Jade Emperor thought for a while and said, "No." He used to call himself the old grandson and me at every turn, and he was completely not afraid of heaven and earth, and he couldn't communicate happily with him. ”

Jin Xing said: "Yes! Look at him now, he is always like the way of heaven and the rules, and he is seizing the moral high ground step by step! Your Majesty, there is a good saying that hooligans are not terrible, but they are afraid that hooligans are educated." ”

The Jade Emperor said: "You mean to say that this Sun Monkey's scheming is getting deeper and deeper, and it is more difficult than in the past?"

Jin Xing said: "Yes." This monkey's fighting talent is already ridiculously strong, and with Buddhism as a backer, and a master who doesn't know the details, his future is really limitless. Instead of embarrassing him, we should form a good relationship with him. ”

The Jade Emperor sighed: "I thought I already valued this monkey very much, but I didn't expect to still underestimate him." This is also thanks to Aiqing's wisdom, which reminded the widow. ”

Jin Xing said: "This is just some speculation by Wei Chen. ”

The Jade Emperor said: "Aiqing's judgment has always been very accurate, there is no doubt about this. You're going to have to give more advice to the widows in the future. ”

Venus bowed and saluted, "It should be, it should be." ”

——————————

Wukong raised his head in the clouds, turned back to Fengxian County, and saw Xuanzang and the county marquis.

Bajie said: "Brother Monkey, you are finally back!

So Wukong conveyed the opinion of the heavenly court.

The marquis said: "Isn't it just to apologize, isn't it to revere the gods." I'll do it!" and he took his leave to deal with the matter.

After the marquis left, Wukong asked, "I shouldn't have been away for a long time, right?"

Xuanzang said: "It's fast, it's fast, it's only eight days!"

Wukong said: "Things are indeed going well, and it is too much for Bai Jinxing to help him, and he persuaded the Jade Emperor in a few words." ”

Bajie pouted and said: "Then there is no need to say! This Venus Lao'er is the number one celebrity of the Jade Emperor, and I can enter the scripture-learning team of the old pig, and he has a share of his work!"

Wukong said: "I think Venus is a very good person, Bajie, don't forget the trivial things that happened before." ”

Bajie said: "I can forget everything, but I can't forget him if I want to, this old bastard is too immoral!"

It seems that Bajie's resentment against Venus can't be changed for a while, and Wukong doesn't bother to persuade again, so he diverts the topic and says, "By the way, what's the situation in this Fengxian County?"

Xuanzang said: "No one is dead!"

Goku was surprised, "How did you do it?"

Bajie said: "Brother, you don't know, the master was too cruel to me, and he didn't let me sleep for a day!"

Wukong said, "What's going on?"

Bajie said: "Although this Fengxian County lacks food and water, it is not short of gold and silver. The marquis raised 10,000 taels of gold in the whole county to buy grain. I have to make seven or eight trips a day to bring back dozens of tons of grain from more than 1,000 miles away, which is barely enough for more than 400,000 people to eat for a day. Brother, you see, I've lost weight!"

Wujing said: "Master doesn't owe you anything, let you eat enough every day." I can't really see how thin you've got!"

Bajie rolled his eyes and replied: "Nonsense, how can you get back so much grain if you don't have enough to eat?" Didn't your physics teacher teach you how much joules of energy you have to consume if you do any work!"

Xuanzang said: "It seems that you are the only one who is contributing! Wujing has dug dozens of deep wells throughout the county, and also dug three oil wells and two shale gas by the way. He doesn't do less than you do. ”

Wukong said: "Oh, in fact, people Bajie just want to be greedy for some credit, when is he not like this?"

Bajie said: "Brother Monkey, are you praising me, or are you hurting me." ”

Xuanzang said: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and buy food." ”

Bajie said: "Now that Brother Monkey is back, his magical powers are much greater than mine! He plucked a pinch of monkey hair and turned it into a large bunch of monkeys, and one trip is enough for me to transport ten times!"

Wukong said: "Okay, let's go together! One trip is enough for the people of this county to eat for a day!"

After another ten days, the people of the whole county city have thanked heaven and earth, and Wukong appointed the fourth value of Gong Cao to bring a message to the Jade Emperor, saying that everything was done according to the requirements of the heavenly court. Six days later, Ganlin fell, and the drought in Fengxian County was resolved.

The marquis of the county was grateful for the kindness of several elders, so he hurried to build a temple overnight to worship Xuanzang's master and apprentice. Xuanzang Dao splashed ink, leaving five big characters of 'Ganlin Puji Temple', and as soon as the words were written, he left.

This time it seemed to be a bit rushed. But if you think about it carefully, you have to go anyway, so how much difference does it make if you leave early or late?
