Volume 1 First Arrival in the World Chapter 72 The Demon Race Comes to Attack
"I have long heard that the Xu family has a woman Yan Ruyu, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation. How about I want to accept you as a concubine?" Emperor Zhao Yinzhen looked at the beautiful woman in front of him.
Since ancient times, kings have been lustful, and they can't wait for all the beauties in the world to be in their pockets. Showing off the symbol of imperial power, everyone who becomes an emperor will enjoy great glory. Xu Yuhui bit her lip and said, "You have a grudge against me for killing my father, and you want me to serve you." Delusion. Even death will not grant your wish. ”
"What a strong woman, worthy of being Prime Minister Xu's biological daughter. "Although the emperor is greedy for beauty, femme fatales still don't talk about it. Maybe someone slaughtered him in his sleep that day.
Hui Neng said: "Thank you Your Majesty for your magnanimity. The poor monk took the three of them and left. ”
The land of right and wrong will not be long after, since the emperor has promised to pardon the Xu family's crimes. You should jump out of the circle of right and wrong earlier, and leave the capital a moment earlier to have more safety.
"The master stays, I still don't know anything, and I ask the master to solve my doubts. The Emperor spoke.
"Your Majesty, please speak up, the poor monk should know everything. Hui Neng said.
Ordered the eunuch to take the seat, the emperor asked Huineng to sit down, the two sat opposite each other in the north and south, the emperor sat facing south and facing north, and the dragon chair was made of Nanmu and carved with nine golden dragons. The golden dragon's face was hideous, and there was a faint momentum that wanted to break through and soar above the nine heavens. Huineng also sat down and listened to the emperor's words.
The emperor cleared his throat and said, "I heard that the saint can peek into the heavens and know the past and future fortunes. I have also heard that Master Huineng is the ultimate celestial in his learning, and he has already realized the Three Treasures, and his cultivation is even more shocking. Glancing at Zhang Zichen beside him, he continued: "Dare to ask me how my luck is?"
"Amitabha, Your Majesty also has a question, and it is not appropriate to talk about it. Huineng said.
The emperor waved his sleeves and said heroically: "I own the entire Eastern Japan Kingdom, how can I not tolerate you to ask." ”
Huineng said: "Thank you Your Majesty for your magnanimity, what if Your Majesty is defeated the day before yesterday?"
When everyone heard this, their faces changed greatly, and the timid ones were even more trembling, which was a serious illness in the emperor's heart, and no one could mention it. The throne was robbed by brutal means. This is the existence of taboos. Don't touch one or two. Today, a monk made things clear. Yes, although I just asked you how the defeat was, after all, you obtained the throne by forcing the palace. After hearing this, the emperor's face first became very ugly, and he resisted a murderous impulse, and popped out one word after another from his mouth, which showed that he was trying his best to control himself. "What do you want to say?"
"Your Majesty, don't be impatient, listen to me slowly. The monk said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty is betting on the operation of the country, how unclear it is, making an alliance with crooked demons and evil ways is no less than seeking skin with a tiger." If His Majesty fails to force the palace, he will definitely lead the army to the west, divide the Eastern Japan Kingdom into two and establish himself as the emperor, and then the imperial army will start to fight with the prince for many years. Fortunately, His Majesty borrowed the power of the outer way and finally obtained the throne. How fortunate the people of the world are. You don't have to suffer from the sword. ”
The emperor finally couldn't sit still and stood up and said, "What else do you know?"
"Your Majesty has ascended the throne, so naturally you know that the fortunes of the country are beginning to decline. The evil demons stole the Huanghuang dragon qi, causing the country's fortunes to gradually decline. This is Your Majesty's sin. If a hundred years later, how to face the ancestors. Hui Neng said.
"You really comprehend where the Heavenly Dao is, so you also know the purpose of my coming to you. The Emperor gritted his teeth.
Huineng put his hands together and said: "In the past, Niangniang entrusted His Majesty to Huangguang Temple, hoping to use Buddhism to influence His Majesty's heart, but I didn't want to be led into a crooked way by bad people, which is the sin of poor monks. ”
The emperor looked at Zhang Zichen not far away with emotion and said, "It's not his fault, it's me who is dedicated to getting the throne." I don't want to follow in the footsteps of my big brothers. ”
"The first emperor is also a generation of Ming monarchs in the handling of government affairs, but he mistakenly believed the slander of the demon way, saying that His Majesty's heirs will threaten His Majesty's throne and should be eliminated quickly, that is His Majesty's upright prime is the peak of the dragon spirit and tiger, and the desire for power has also reached the point of madness. Huineng said: "The princes were slaughtered, and only you in your infancy survived." Unfortunately, your mother did not escape this fate. ”
This said to the weakest place in the emperor's heart, when the emperor ordered the slaughter of his own heirs, Zhao Yinzhen's mother Xianfei Niangniang risked her life to send the infant child to the Huangguang Temple. Ask the presiding officer* at the time to wait until one day when he is safe to take the child back to the palace. The Imperial Temple, which was originally indisputable, was involved in the royal struggle. It has been 20 years since Huineng returned from Yunyou.
The first thing Huineng did after coming back was to expose the face of the demon in the palace, so that the emperor could clearly come from his madness. But it was too late, and the hatred in Yinzhen's heart had grown into a towering tree. Yinzhen, who was taken back to the palace, was named the crown prince, and the emperor did his best to compensate for the suffering he had suffered over the years. also let him participate in the discussion of government politics. The intelligent prince soon had his own team, and after twenty years of dormancy, the impatient prince launched a forced palace.
"I also know the purpose of your visit this time, Your Majesty rest assured, even if the poor monk fights for this old life, His Majesty will be considerate. "Huineng also knows the purpose of the emperor's visit.
The emperor said: "Come on, from now on, Huangguang Temple will be named the national temple, and the presiding officer of the Huangguang Temple, Master Huineng, will be the national teacher." Buddhism as the state religion. A golden Buddha statue of Huangguang Temple was awarded. ”
"How dare Huineng be a national teacher, today's Huineng is a wandering monk, I am afraid that he will not be blessed to receive the grace of His Majesty. Hui Neng said: "I'm afraid it's more auspicious to go here, and I hope that Your Majesty will put the people of Dawn first and be diligent in government affairs." ”
The emperor nodded and agreed to Huineng's request: "The mage has a lot of protection all the way." Then he ordered someone to take out an urn and send it to Xu Yuhui and said: "This is Lingzun's ashes, which can make the old prime minister enter the earth as soon as possible." ”
After speaking, the eunuch shouted: "Get up and drive back to the palace, and the idlers will avoid it." ”
The mighty procession gradually disappeared, and Zhang Zichen also followed the emperor back to the palace. Seeing that everyone was gone, he said, "Monk, everyone is gone, and we are safe." You go back to your Huangguang Temple first. He said to Xu Yuhui again: "What are your plans?"
"It is a big deal to put my father in the ground first, and I can only rely on Uncle Zhao for my life in the future. Xu Yuhui hugged the ashes and said.
"Miss, don't say frustrating words, my lord, he has already commanded, if something happens miserably one day, I hope I can take you to Tiandu Peak." Zhao Xuan's eyes were red and he looked at the urn.
Xu Yuhui said: "Just by my uncle's orders." ”
Huineng said: "I'll send you off, there is still a group of people waiting for us outside the city." ”
Confused and curious, he said: "Monk, the so-called way of heaven you are talking about is not to meddle in the affairs of the world, I think if you interfere, maybe the people of the old Xu family will not die." ”
As the five of them prepared to leave the city, Hui Neng said as he walked, "If I prevent this coup from happening, it will lead to more deaths." Heaven is ruthless, humanity is merciful. How dare I easily disrupt the rules of the Heavenly Dao. ”
"Your so-called Heavenly Dao should be talking about military disasters, I heard some flavor from your words just now, you are very familiar with the emperor's family. Confused.
Zhou Yu supported the heartbroken Xu Yuhui and comforted her softly. Zhao Xuan was holding the urn, and the whole person seemed to be dead and lost his soul. Walking step by step.
The atmosphere outside the city has become very eerie, there are no birds and no pedestrians. Only a desolate landscape was in front of everyone's eyes. The grass on the ground faded, revealing the yellow sand that rolled up with the strong wind, blowing up countless sand and dust, and the gray clouds pressed the sky very low, although there was a calm in front of him, but there was a nameless depression rushing to the face.
No one walked out of the capital for a mile, and Huineng stopped and said, "We're all here, I'm afraid it's not a way to be hospitable if you don't show up yet." ”
"Haha, old monk, it's our hypocrisy, the little ones, all come out for me. "For a while, the earth shook, the land rolled, and there were demons coming out of the picture, some demons were extremely terrifying, different from the previous demon clan, the demons were more ferocious and brutal, and the appearance was also very terrifying, and the body often came with the flames of hell, in the netherworld blood sea, they fed all kinds of evil thoughts generated in the world, but if they appeared in the world, they would feed the human food, or catch other forces to suck the various breaths emitted by the human beings. The surrounding temperature is rising sharply, and the flames brought by the demons are burning the air, and the heat wave is hitting people. The leader was the blood demon who was in the Three Realms Inn that day.
"Amitabha, there is an appointment in the Three Realms, and the demons are not allowed to set foot in the world for half a step, otherwise the Three Realms will attack it. Blood Demon, aren't you afraid of angering the Three Realms?" Hui Neng said in surprise when he saw that there were no less than a hundred demons.
The Blood Demon laughed and said, "It was you humans who took the lead in breaking the covenant, and I was also summoned from hell by your Emperor of the Eastern Ri Kingdom, so it is reasonable that you Eastern Ri Kingdom will not be able to get rid of it." Bald donkey, don't get in the way for me here, those who know each other hurry up and let out the Huanghuang dragon qi, otherwise what my sword is pointing at, the capital will definitely be slaughtered. ”
Confused, his brows were deep, and he looked at the old monk who was invincible in front of the battle and sighed: "When will I be able to fight more than 100 people of the demon clan with the strength of one person like Hui Neng." ”
"Brother, I still don't want it, how good it is to be an ordinary person. Having been fighting and killing all day long, I guess the master has long been tired of this kind of life. Zhou Yu looked at the back of the old monk and said: "I can feel that he is very lonely, it is a kind of loneliness where everyone in the world is drunk and I am alone." The heavy burden of the Heavenly Dao had weighed him down, and he was almost out of breath. ”
Confused, he looked at Zhou Yu in surprise and said, "How do you know?"
Zhou Yu held up the rosary and said, "I think this rosary told me." "The rosary used to be Huineng's belongings, and it has long been in contact with him, so it's no wonder that teenage children can speak profoundly.
In the past, Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, one of the five emperors of the human race, defeated the demon clan Chiyou in the battle for deer, forced the demon clan to retreat to the sea of blood, and made a covenant, the demon clan will never set foot in the world, and the demon clan has wanted to return to the world all the time for thousands of years. Unwilling to live forever, they live in the harsh environment of the Netherworld Blood Sea. But because there are many sages born in the world, yes, the plan to counterattack the world has been delayed again and again. To this day, when the demon clan took advantage of the cannibalism of father and son in the Eastern Ri Kingdom, when the throne was changed, more than 100 demons were sent to test the strength of the human world. As soon as some wind and water started, he was caught by Huineng.
"Bald donkey, are you ready to die? Haha, although the Huanghuang dragon qi we are waiting to consume today is not much, it is more than enough for you to come. In addition, in the first few days, you have spent countless souls for the people of the dawn. Strength should also be lost by half. "Blood Demon Dao.
Huineng has a calm face, sitting cross-legged, with a large lotus mudra in his hands, there is a Buddha light in his body to shine people's eyes, and there is a golden light that penetrates the clouds to expel the dark clouds to reveal the light of the sun, and the Buddha's light and the daylight converge together to achieve the golden light in the sky. The Blood Demon looked at Hui Neng in horror and said, "You are hiding such forces, it seems that I am underestimating you." ”
What the demons fear most is this supreme sun, and the skin that is slightly lower in cultivation has begun to fester. It smells of burning. The Blood Demon quickly took out a jewel from his bosom and sacrificed it in the air, instantly excluding all the sunlight and Buddha light from them.
