Chapter VI: WTO accession

So far, the largest battle between gods and demons in the Three Realms ended hastily--- full of drama. Who would have thought that the once mighty Celestial Army would be so vulnerable? Who would have thought that the Heavenly Court, which was about to change hands, would be able to turn the tables without half the strength of the Buddha Sect? Sanqing didn't expect it, the monkey didn't expect it, the Buddhism didn't expect it, Cihang didn't expect it, the Jade Emperor didn't expect it, and no one thought of it.

As a result, the carefully arranged bureau was broken in this way, the long-prepared response was useless, the authority of the Heavenly Court was no longer effective, and many powerful plans and ways to solve it were hastily withdrawn. Both sides of the game complained about this chess piece that undermined the overall situation, because the winning side failed to win, and the losing side lost its dignity. And this chess piece is the biggest hero of this battle - Tianpeng.

Heavenly Court under reconstruction

Haotian was scolding the gods in the Lingxiao Treasure Palace.

"It's all a bunch of waste, and the dignity of my heavenly court has been lost to you immortals! I really don't know if the money paid to you every year is fed to the dogs, or the pigs are eaten! ”

The group of divine eagles lined up on both sides, looking at Haotian's deteriorating appearance, only to feel pitiful and ridiculous. Because he was the identity of the Jade Emperor, he just listened to the scolding, but secretly spread Haotian's "deeds" to the Three Realms. In the final analysis, the entire Heavenly Court is just the plaything of the Sanqing. How can the "Jade Emperor" like a "plaything" really make people feel awe?

"Your Majesty, the Heavenly Court suffered heavy losses in this war, and the face was swept away, and the ministers could not escape the blame." King Tota first pleaded guilty to the Jade Emperor, and the gods knelt down.

"You are guilty, of course you are guilty!" The Jade Emperor was furious, and when he saw the gods kneeling down to ask for sin, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, but he still maintained the seriousness on his face, and then said bitterly: "Hey! Am I not guilty? It's all because I usually neglect to discipline, which eventually leads to a catastrophe. ”

"Your Majesty, you are the Lord of the Three Realms, how can you be guilty? In my opinion, the biggest criminal is Tianpeng, who could have destroyed the demon king a long time ago, but he waited until the demon army hit the South Heavenly Gate before making a move, disgraced the heavenly court, it was really hateful, hateful! Wenqu Xingjun waved his long sleeves, and he was about to talk non-stop.

The gods immediately chimed in, as if the canopy was the culprit of the battle, and in the end they even figured out how to put the canopy to death.

The Jade Emperor listened to the words of the gods, the corners of his mouth slowly rose, and in the end, he smiled like a flower.

"Although the sins of Tiancang are great and unforgivable, but God has the virtue of a good life, so let him be reincarnated in the world." The Jade Emperor smoothed his beard with satisfaction.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

......

It is said that Tianpeng was demoted to the mortal world in this way, and it was said that he was molesting Chang'e and violating the rules of heaven, but even this is just a reason.

......

The monkey's body was rapidly descending, followed by the decree of the Nyorai. Countless golden words converged into a golden ocean, locking the monkey's mana, and every Sanskrit word was filled with a holy breath, as if to free people from pain and go to bliss.

The monkey clearly saw that countless demon souls locked in Sanskrit were pressing towards him, they were struggling to the death, but they could not escape the power of the Buddha, and the decree turned into five golden air currents, like a huge palm, and when the palm was patted, another demon of the "Trouble" Three Realms would be captured until death.

......

The people on the mountain range only saw a huge golden palm pressing a faint black air flow rapidly descending, and finally, under the witness of all human beings, the five fingers turned into five tall and majestic mountains, which gathered together and merged with the surrounding mountains, making it difficult to distinguish.

It was not only the demon monkey that descended from the palm of his hand, but also the cessation of the disaster, the huge flint stones and hail stopped falling, the dark clouds disappeared for the most part, and the spring sun once again sprinkled softly from the sky.

People came out of the caves and forests where they had taken refuge, and they rejoiced, rejoicing that God had forgiven their sins and allowed them to return to their homeland again.

What crimes did they commit? They don't know. But they still built temples of gods and Buddhas, and they burned incense and prayed every day for a good harvest and good weather. The kings designated the five mountains as forbidden areas and worshipped them at the right time each year to thank God.

However, for decades, the prosperity of the world is the same as before the war, but the world will lose a passionate heart.

The monkey's whole body was almost completely crushed by the mountain, leaving only its head and two arms outside.

In the first few days of being crushed under the mountain, he was extremely angry, hating the hypocrisy of Buddhism, hating his own incompetence, and hating the betrayal of his brother.

He yelled and cried with sorrow, but all that heaven and earth responded to him was the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves and the echo of himself.

He saw how happy ordinary beings were, and although he endured helplessness and unfreedom, he was very happy in the end.

So, he stopped thinking about it, and he suddenly envied the life of squirrels, birds and even ants in the forest.

The monkey seldom even mentioned to his friends the majesty of his conquest of the Quartet, even though his friends never believed the stories that sounded mysterious.

"An unlucky stupid monkey!" A squirrel said to his friend.

The monkey built a small shed for himself with his hands, and he covered his upper body. He couldn't stand the wind and rain for many years.

"Resistant to wind and snow in winter, shaded and rainy in summer, my grandson finally has a decent shed!"

It was the cheers of the monkeys on the day the shed was built.

He already felt that the affairs of the Three Realms were too far away from him, what the revival of the demon race, what the desire for freedom. He didn't think it was comparable to a big peach.

"Life has to be passed, and being happy is the most rare!" This is the mantra of the monkey now.

If the monkey spends 500 years like this, maybe after 500 years of release from prison, there will only be an ordinary monkey in heaven and earth. That's it, nothing more. When a living being's heart no longer desires the persistent pursuit of the true meaning of heaven and earth, even if he has great magic power and monstrous means, he will not be able to escape the shackles of fate after all.

But there must always be such a group of people in this world: they dare to attack the old order, regardless of the outcome; They dare to face their sorrows, regardless of whether they are going to fall or not. They dare to walk ahead of everyone and pave the way for those who come after them with blood and failure with unprecedented courage, so as to achieve a bright future for the world.

The monkey will never become an ordinary monkey

......

Thousands of miles away, inside the three-star oblique moon cave

Zixia listened to the discussions of some disciples.

"And that's how the war against the sky ended?"

"Otherwise, the demon clan is still weak after all, and it is common sense that they can't fight against the heavenly court."

"It is said that the leader of the demon world is still our senior brother."

"Don't dare to spread it blindly, it's good for you to enter the ears of the ancestors."

"That being said, I envy that monkey and dare to go to the Heavenly Court and the Jade Emperor. This kind of courage can be regarded as a generation of heroes. ”

"However, after all, it is just an egg hitting a stone, and I can't measure myself."

"Who's to say it isn't? Now being pressed by the Buddha under the Five Elements Mountain with a palm can be regarded as a cause and effect, after all, in the war, so many demons and gods fell. ”

......

The petrified courtyard was still standing, and the closed doors and windows could not see the inside of the stone house.

Zixia recovered her true body, she hurriedly chose a path and ran out, passing through the deep corridor, the strange formation, and there was no obstruction, and she came straight to the outside of the three-star cave of the slanting moon.

"Uncle, do you know where the Marble Mountain is?" Zixia stopped the woodcutter who was descending the mountain.

"Marble Mountains? It is at the junction of West Niuhe Island and South Zhanbu Island. From here, head west to get there. It's just a long way to go, so the girl must be careful. ”

"Well, thank you, uncle." With that, Zixia hurriedly headed west.

The road goes west along the time, and there is a beautiful purple figure, the dense trees around it have gradually thinned, and the post station and pedestrians have become another scenery. The setting sun in the west was slowly lowering, and outside the low walls of the small city in the distance, a group of vendors in the grass market were packing their things and preparing to go home.

Wang Wujiu is a new vegetable seller who has recently arrived, and his figure is not athletic, only his dark skin and thin face under the scorching sun all year round, showing his youthful helplessness.

"Wang Wujiu? Did you steal three pieces of linen from my stall? Why did I leave for a while, and the three pieces of cloth were gone, I can understand the cloth on the stall! The middle-aged man with a figure-eight beard asked the man to flip through the cloth on his stall and deliberately raised his voice.

This sound attracted a group of vendors to watch, and everyone came over one after another, pointing at the two.
