Because Jiang Liu wanted to find out the situation of the destruction of France, when he was captured by these soldiers, the team that traveled west to learn the scriptures did not resist, and was directly arrested and thrown into prison.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are monks sent by the Tang Emperor to worship the Buddha and pray for scriptures in the West, we want to see the king......" When he was caught and thrown into the prison, Jiang Liu opened his mouth and said to the soldiers led by him.

If it is an ordinary wandering monk, after being caught, he will kill it directly and then report it to the past.

Listening to Jiang Liu's words, he was actually a monk sent by the emperor of the Tang Dynasty?

After the soldier's face changed slightly, he immediately took the customs clearance document from Jiang Liu, and turned to leave.

This kind of thing naturally has to be reported to the king.

On this day, the king stayed in his main hall, and was taking care of state affairs, and then he picked up a roster next to him and looked at it.

The roster records the lives of some monks who were killed.

After looking at it, the king shook his head, and made a vow to kill 10,000 monks, but now he has only killed about 2,000 monks, and those monks have already gone into hiding, and the progress of killing monks is getting slower and slower, and it seems that it will take several years to complete the successful killing of 10,000.

"Your Majesty, the city guards below have something to tell you!" Just as the king of France looked at the roster in his hand, and when he was helpless, a figure came to him and said with his head down.

"Oh, what's the matter, let him in!" said the king, putting down the roster in his hand, and replied.

Soon, a soldier in armor walked in and knelt down in front of the king.

"Your Majesty, the situation is like this, when my subordinates were guarding the gates of the royal city today, they met a few wandering monks!" the soldier reported.

"Oh, a few monks have been caught? This is a happy event, but it's just a few wandering monks, just kill it, is there anything to report?" Hearing the soldier's words, the king's face was happy at first, and then he asked the soldier again.

"If it were just a few ordinary wandering monks, his subordinates would naturally not dare to disturb His Majesty, but these monks were sent by the Tang Emperor from the Eastern Tang Dynasty...... the soldier reported.

As he spoke, he took out the customs clearance document of the river and presented it.

Hearing this, the face of the king who destroyed France changed slightly, took this customs clearance document, and looked down.

After looking at it, from this customs clearance document, the king understood the identity of Jiang Liu and his group, and it was indeed not an ordinary wandering monk, but was really sent by the Tang Emperor.

However, after thinking about it, the king casually put the customs clearance document aside, and said: "Don't think about it, do things according to the rules, and kill these monks from the Tang Dynasty directly at noon tomorrow!"

"Your Majesty, after all, that Tang Dynasty is the ...... of the Heavenly Empire" Hearing the king's words, the soldier raised his head in astonishment.

"It's okay!" It's just that the king waved his hand, and said with an unconcerned look: "That Datang's national strength is indeed not comparable to us, but we are seventy or eighty thousand miles away from Datang, no matter how strong Datang is, it can't be reached!

Yes, for the vast majority of kings, the Tang Emperor sent someone to learn from the scriptures and pass by, stamp a seal casually, and let people pass, there is no loss, why not do it?

However, if you are willing to give this face, you can give it, and if you don't want to give it, you can not give it.

Especially for a country like France, which is seventy or eighty thousand miles away.

"Subordinates understood!" Hearing the king's words, the soldier bowed his head and said, without saying anything more, he turned around and quickly left.

"Is the monk from the Tang Dynasty?" After the soldier turned around and went down, the king of France looked at the customs clearance document that he had casually put aside, and a look of doubt flashed on his face.

Datang is seventy or eighty thousand miles away from him, and these people who are suitable for going west must have experienced a lot of hardships, and even encountered a lot of demons and monsters, right?

They were easily taken down by a few soldiers? With such means, how could they travel 70,000 or 80,000 miles?

If they had the magical ability to subdue demons and subdue demons, they wouldn't be so easy to catch, right?

"Could it be that luck has failed?" the king muttered to himself after thinking for a moment.

I couldn't figure it out, but in the end the king shook his head, there was no need to think about it so much, and when they were killed, everything would not matter.

"Master, if you take out the customs clearance papers, will the king let us go?"

"This is unlikely!" Jiang Liu shook his head and said.

Along the way, it is true that many countries have given face to Datang, but in the original book, the king who destroyed France was going to kill the westbound team, naturally, he would not give face to Datang.

"Ah, in that case, then why do we have to be arrested!?" After listening to Jiang Liu's answer, Sun Wukong looked at Jiang Liu in surprise and asked.

"I just don't want to start a conflict so early, don't you wonder why the king who destroyed France wanted to kill the monk?" After glancing at Sun Wukong, Jiang Liu asked rhetorically.

"My old grandson is not curious, what does this have to do with us?" Shaking his head, Sun Wukong looked uninterested.

"Senior brother, you can't say that......"

As Sun Wukong's words fell, Sha Wujing next to him immediately spoke, and said: "Senior brother, think about it, what is our purpose? This king of France has such great malice towards Buddhism, you say, to some extent, can it be our ally?"

"Alas, Senior Brother Sha, there is some truth in what you say!" Listening to Sha Wujing's words, Sun Wukong thought about it, but nodded approvingly.

yes, why didn't you think of that?

"Brother Monkey, I think you're just worrying about ......"

At the same time, in the corner of the cell, Zhu Bajie, who was lying on the straw in the corner of the cell, said: "Master's actions must have profound meanings, you should think about what to do, when you want us to do something, Master will naturally tell us what to do!"

Zhu Bajie's words made Sun Wukong glance at him obliquely, and Sun Wukong naturally didn't like Zhu Bajie's lazy temperament.

Turning his head, Sun Wukong's gaze fell on Jiang Liu's body, and then said: "Master, even if what Senior Brother Sha said is reasonable, but after all, this destruction of France is just a small country of mortals, even if it is an ally, it is difficult to play much of a role, you don't expect to let these mortals fight side by side with us, right?"

"Wukong, you can't just look at the surface of everything!"

Sun Wukong's words made Jiang Liu smile slightly, and then said: "Think about it, if these mortals are really so vulnerable, then why don't the people of Buddhism intervene?

As soon as he said this, Jiang Liu paused slightly, and then said: "Don't forget, we are now in the realm of Xiniu Hezhou!"

"Yes, Master is right! This is the territory of Xiniu Hezhou, but what about the local sphere of influence of Buddhism!" Hearing Jiang Liu's prompt, Zhu Bajie, who was originally resting on the straw next to him, also turned over and sat up, nodded and said.

"That's right, there are forces against Buddhism in other places, it's okay to say, it's this Xiniu Hezhou!" Sha Wujing also nodded, looking surprised.

This is like a country, if there are rebel rebels in other places, that's it, but someone near the imperial capital rises up, saying that they want to rebel? Isn't this a joke?

However, this rebellious rebel army was really stationed near the imperial capital?

No matter how you look at it, it smells of something wrong, right?

"Okay, tonight, I'll go for a walk for the master and find out about the situation!" After explaining his thoughts to a few apprentices, Jiang Liu spoke.

Hearing what the master said, Sun Wukong naturally didn't talk nonsense, and they all waited well.

Jiang Liu sat cross-legged, practicing the exercises of the Qinglian Dao Sutra, and seized the time to earn every bit of experience points.

In this way, time passed minute by minute, and when it was dark, Jiang Liu opened his eyes.

If it was in the previous life, around 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, it was the time when a lot of nightlife was lively, but in this world of Journey to the West, there was no entertainment, and when it was a child, it was naturally quiet.

It's just that the chains of the mortal world naturally can't bind Jiang Liu, and after breaking free, Jiang Liu left this prison directly.

After a little discernment of the direction, he entered the palace directly.

The king was resting in his bedchamber and sleeping soundly, when suddenly the king felt some dazzling light coming from him, and slowly opened his eyes.

Then, the king saw Jiang Liu, who was wearing a green lotus Buddha robe, was sitting next to him drinking tea, looking leisurely, and the lights in the palace were naturally lit by Jiang Liu.

"Who are you!?" When I woke up in the middle of the night, there was actually a monk sitting in his dormitory drinking tea?

Without waiting for Jiang Liu to reply, the king followed and shouted, "Someone!

"Okay, don't shout, Your Majesty, everyone is asleep at this time, you can't wake up!" Jiang Liu said calmly to the king's shout.

Before leaving, Jiang Liu got a sleepy worm from Sun Wukong, and everyone fell asleep, no matter how the king shouted, it was impossible to wake up others.

"Shall we have a good chat now?" Seeing that the king stopped shouting, Jiang Liu made an inviting gesture and poured an extra cup of tea in front of him.
