"You ......"

Obviously, as soon as Chen Xuanzang's words came out, the shopkeeper subconsciously took a step back and looked at them with a vigilant look......

But after sweeping his gaze over the silk and satin on Chen Xuanzang's body, the meat on the chopsticks, and the full head of hair and the maids beside him, the expression on his face immediately relaxed.

"My son, don't talk nonsense about these words!"

"Huh? What do you mean? ”

Chen Xuanzang showed a trace of astonishment: "My son asked at the gate of the city, and the official at that time also reacted like you...... Why, in this country, the word monk can't be mentioned? ”

"This ......"

The shopkeeper showed a hesitant look, and his mouth squirmed a few times, as if he was a little worried.

"Huh!"

Chen Xuanzang snorted coldly, picked up the fan and knocked it on his palm: "Xiao Binzi! ”

"Whew!"

The scholar's version of Sun Bin threw out a silver ingot without saying a word and fell into the arms of the shopkeeper.

"My son-in-law is not short of money, let you say it!"

"Thank you for the reward!"

Feeling the heavy silver in his hand, the shopkeeper immediately smiled, and there was still half a minute of hesitation on his face.

"Childe, you don't know," the shopkeeper pulled a chair, sat down at the table, and turned on the storytelling mode: "In our Che Chi country, you must not express that you are a monk, or if you are interested in Buddhism and monks, otherwise you ......."

"Okay, don't sell it, what kind of identity do I have, how can I be interested in this ruined Buddhist family? Tell me quickly, I'm very interested in the customs of your car Chi country. ”

Chen Xuanzang picked up the fan and knocked it on the head of the shopkeeper, looking like a son of a family who was quite unreasonable.

And this kind of operation also makes the heart of the showcase more stable.

"Of course, how could Childe have anything to do with this shattered Buddhism? It's just that you have just come to Chechi Country not long ago, and you still don't know anything about our country......"

"Thirty years ago, in fact, our country was also very respectful of Buddhism...... Even the king rank must be canonized by the Buddhist National Temple...... But all of this, in that drought thirty years ago, completely changed ......"

With the shopkeeper's slow passage, the westbound five-person group finally understood what happened to the Buddhist gate of Chi Guo.

It turned out that thirty years ago, there was a rare drought in Chechi country...... In order to pray for rain, the king, queen, and prince burned incense and bathed, fasted for seven days, and sincerely worshiped the Buddha, just hoping to move the Buddha and rain heavily......

But there is no need for the shopkeeper to say more, the westbound five-person group will know the result...... As far as the urine nature of Buddhism is concerned, heh, even if you offer the wealth of the whole country, you may not be able to let the true Buddha come, let alone just fasting?

Sure enough, seven days later, the whole country was speechless, the rivers were dry, and the people were about to starve to death...... The king was so anxious that he and the queen fell ill on the spot!

Fortunately, at this time, the national teachers Huli, Luli, and Yangli Daxian came to seek a heavy rain to relieve the drought...... But unfortunately it came too late after all, and the king and queen were already in a hurry and died of illness.

The crown prince succeeded to the throne, and in order to avenge his father, he immediately overthrew all the temples in the country and worshiped the three Taoist immortals as national teachers...... From then on, Che Chiguo did not worship the Buddha, but only sought the Tao......

If it's just like that, it's a big deal, it's a big deal for Buddhist disciples to turn to the Taoist sect, after all, Buddhism and Taoism are originally one family......

But the key point is that a year ago, because of the collusion between Buddhism and the Demon Dao, it was wiped out by Heavenly Court...... And the three national teachers who take Taoism as their own glory should even decide to completely eradicate the remnants of Buddhism!

So the national teachers arrested all the Buddhist disciples and ordered them to write letters to the Buddhist disciples they knew, saying that this Che Chi country was the last country that could accept Buddhist disciples, and invited them to come......

When they came, he took them down in one fell swoop, and ordered them to write a letter and summon the other disciples to come......

In just such a set of operations, in less than a month, the number of Buddhist disciples imprisoned by Che Chiguo has reached tens of thousands!

In order to digest these Buddhist disciples and not cause huge killings, the national teacher had an idea, so there is a picture of Buddhist disciples doing coolies, selling goods, and being slaves as seen by Chen Xuanzang and others today......

And the disciples of Buddhism are so divided, and as soon as they are absorbed by the whole country, there is not enough manpower...... So it started again, and let the new Buddhist disciples write letters, and grasp the cycle of new Buddhist people.

Even now, you don't need to be dressed as a Buddha, but if you ask those Buddhist monks more, the surrounding soldiers, officials, and even the common people will take the initiative to catch you, send you to the Yamen, and become a slave of Chechiguo......

It is said that there are many strangers who are just curious, and they have become so-called Buddhist disciples, who have been forcibly left here as slaves, and who have written letters to deceive relatives and friends into coming as slaves......

After finishing speaking, the shopkeeper sighed: "Now, our Che Chi Kingdom, the operation of catching Buddhist disciples as slaves, has formed a huge industrial chain...... Childe, if you think about it, you also know that the Buddhism sect has been extinguished for a year, where are there new disciples? ”

"To put it bluntly, these new disciples are not just because of curiosity, and then they are beaten into Buddhists, shave their heads, change their clothes, become slaves, and then order them to write letters to recruit acquaintances, friends, and even family members to come and be deceived, and as a result, they become slaves."

"That is, Childe, your party is not an ordinary person at first glance, otherwise...... As early as when I went to inquire, I had already been beaten into a Buddhist by the officials. ”

After listening to the shopkeeper's narration, all five people in the west opened their mouths in shock, their faces full of disbelief.

Che Chiguo, this already involves human trafficking, right? Arrest people, beat them as Buddhist disciples, and then let people deceive other relatives to come over...... This set is too slippery! It was so unexpected!

"The people below are doing this, the national teacher, the king doesn't know?"

Chen Xuanzang didn't hold back and asked.

"What if you know? Don't know what? ”

The shopkeeper sighed and said, "Che Chiguo, it was originally dominated by the village elders from all over the country, and even the army was recommended by the village elders from all over the country, what can the king do?" As for the national teacher, he is dedicated to cultivation, and he is not familiar with the world, let alone cares more. ”

(PS: Here, Brain Hole is not nonsense!) Among all the countries recorded in the original Journey to the West, only the scene of Che Chiguo begging for rain is where the villager applies to the king. It can be seen from this that in Chechi China, how great is the power of the villagers! ）

"As far as the current Che Chi Guo is concerned, no matter whether you have anything to do with Buddhism or not, as long as you contact the monk, you won't be able to run away! Even if they come to us, they will have to be arrested and sent to work as coolies for three years! ”

Listening to the shopkeeper's emotional words, the westbound five-person group looked at each other, completely unaware that this was the fact that the monk Che Chiguo was arrested...... No, those who are arrested are not necessarily monks!

At that moment, I didn't ask any more questions, and after eating, I asked the shopkeeper to rent a small courtyard to live in......

"Che Chiguo, according to Journey to the West, there should be a catastrophe here, and there should also be a hole in the world barrier...... The devil's way will not give up the opportunity to invade a gambling fight in vain. What do you think they will do? ”

As soon as he sat in the courtyard, Chen Xuanzang presided over the discussion and immediately asked impatiently.

"Great Sage, can you see the loopholes in the world nodes here?"

Sun Bin didn't speak for the first time, but looked at Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong nodded and said, "I have already observed, in the direction of the palace...... Come to think of it, it should be under the palace. But that node is very peculiar, it's not big, and it shouldn't be able to integrate the small world...... But it doesn't seem easy to make amends! ”

"What do you mean?"

Sun Bin, Chen Xuanzang and others frowned.

Sun Wukong explained: "Many of the previous nodes either only need to be made up for with mana, or they are contaminated with calamity, and they need to do meritorious things to dissolve the calamity, and they can be healed automatically...... But this one node is very strange! ”

"What's the weirdness?"

Sun Bin asked with a frown.

"I don't know the specifics, but the energy that surrounds the node loophole is a force I've never seen before, and maybe we have to find out for ourselves. But I'm sure of one thing, and this node has nothing to do with the Demon Dao...... Even, in the entire Che Chi country, my grandson didn't see a single demon! ”

Sun Wukong also replied with a frown...... Chen Xuanzang, who presided over the discussion, clapped his hands and focused everyone's attention on himself.

"Then you will go and see ...... later" Chen Xuanzang looked at Sun Wukong and instructed: "In addition, since you are in the palace, when you go, you should also test whether the three great masters of Che Chi Guo know about the current Buddhist disciples!" ”

"Human trafficking is a heinous crime, not to mention that it is carried out in the name of Taoism, under the pretext of religious disputes! It is absolutely not permissible to open this opening in the earth immortal realm! ”

The other four looked at each other and nodded with heavy faces...... Population trade, this has been forbidden since the Emperor of Heaven was the king of Shang! Unexpectedly, now it starts again!

——

At night, Sun Wukong, who is the most good at camouflage, the fastest golden-winged Dapeng eagle winged fairy, plus Sun Bin, a man of wisdom, took advantage of the power of the earth to come to the hole of the world node first......

After arriving at the location, Sun Wukong pointed to the cyan energy on the loophole and said to the other two: "Birdman, scholar, you are well-informed, have you ever seen this kind of energy?" If it can be removed, we don't need to do more, and this hole can be healed automatically. ”

"I seem to have seen this power somewhere."

Sun Bin frowned and reached for the loophole...... Similarly, Dapeng also showed a similar expression, and at the same time stretched out his hand......

And then......

"I see!" *2！

"What power?"

Sun Wukong asked urgently, Feather Winged Immortal and Sun Bin glanced at each other, took a deep breath, and said, "This is the power of incense!" ”

"The power of incense?!"

Sun Wukong blinked, and looked at Sun Bin and Yuyi Immortal with some confusion: "What kind of power is this?" ”

"This is one, poisonous, poisonous even more than the power of the Demon Dao."

Sun Bin patiently explained to Sun Wukong: "This kind of power is enshrined by living beings, and using it for cultivation can be extremely fast and highly addictive...... But the biggest problem with this power is that the incense doesn't care who makes the offering, and it doesn't matter whether the request he makes is good or evil, as long as you absorb it, you have to complete it...... And as long as you absorb this power once, you will be reluctant to give up, be kidnapped by the power, and commit more sins......"

"There were a large number of evil gods in various places that the big merchants eradicated back then, and this is the case!"

After explaining, Sun Bin looked at the entrance of the cave, and his expression became more and more complicated: "However, the way of incense cultivation has long been eradicated by Master Jin Ling, Master Yunxiao and others...... Why is it here now? Moreover, also condensed the fusion that blocked the loopholes? Odd! It's so weird! ”

Sun Wukong and the golden-winged Dapeng eagle also looked at it for a long time, but after all, they didn't dare to touch the power of incense, for fear of being tempted......

"Scholar, this power can't be removed?"

"As far as I know, let alone get rid of it, the power of this incense has no other effect at all except for absorbing and cultivating, and the ghost knows how to attach it to the entrance of the cave......"

Sun Bin smiled bitterly and said, "If you want to get rid of it, I have no way but to absorb it." Or, which of you will try? ”

Sun Wukong and the golden-winged Dapeng eagle took a step back in unison, without any intention of contamination at all...... If you absorb it, you have to fulfill the wish of the incense worshipper, and the ghost will know what strange wishes there are, and whoever loves to absorb it will absorb it!

"So what now?"

The three of them looked at each other, and they were a little helpless.

The golden-winged Dapeng Eagle pursed his lips and complained: "Didn't the scholar say it? This thing is more poisonous than the power of the Demon Dao...... We don't dare to absorb it, can we dare to become the devil of the devil's way? ”

Hearing Yuyi Immortal's words, Sun Wukong and Sun Bin all eyes lit up and gave him a thumbs up: "What did you say...... Clever! In other words, you can directly see through the essence of things, is it called a fool to think a thousand times, and there must be one? ”

"Get out!"

Feather Winged Fairy's face turned dark, and he kicked out at Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong laughed, dodged the foot kick of the winged immortal, looked at Sun Bin again, and said, "Scholar, since there is no way here, let's go directly to see the three great teachers...... The Daomen where they are located is now worshiped by hundreds of people in Chechi Kingdom, perhaps, this place has something to do with them! ”

"It makes sense."

Sun Bin's eyes lit up, and he glanced at Sun Wukong appreciatively: "Great Sage, this time, you don't seem to have transformed into the form of a military master monkey, or a resourceful monkey or a prince monkey, right?" How do I feel like you're so much smarter? ”

"You're about to behead the corpse, aren't you?"

"Hmm" Sun Wukong nodded and replied: "The clones have almost fused, so I almost cut them out...... Hey, it's all my master's fault, why did he teach me such complicated exercises. You have to fuse first, then cut the clone, and then fuse again to achieve the hybrid element...... Although the final achievement of the hybrid element will be several times stronger than the normal hybrid element, it is also too troublesome. ”

"If I follow Hongjun's method of beheading three corpses, I am already a half-step hybrid now......"

"Don't complain, Hongjun's method, do you dare to use it? Let's go, the time is not short, we still have to test the national teacher......"

Sun Bin rolled his eyes, and didn't bother to say more to Sun Wukong, the Versailles guy, beckoned the two of them and went to the palace and the National Teacher's Mansion......
