In the deep valley of the hidden depth, a small attic stands quietly.

The simple and somewhat eerie decoration does not show a trace of light inside and outside, and the surrounding vegetation is overgrown, and there is even a strong miasma.

It's a place as silent as real death, and the only brilliance is just a little ghost fire floating back and forth in mid-air.

The king of Jizo slowly came to the attic with the Dharma Ming Nyorai, and from the beginning to the end, they didn't even see a single ghost soldier guarding it.

Looking around, Fa Ming Rulai asked softly, "What kind of place is this?"

"One, another courtyard. "King Jizo is still walking forward step by step.

Soon, the two came to the main hall door.

I saw that the king of Jizo stretched out his hand and gently flicked it, and the two huge door panels, which were three feet high, slowly opened in the harsh friction sound.

The light of the outdoor ghost fire shone through the cracks, and inside, it was as if it could swallow everything.

Zhengfa Ming Rulai took a deep breath, glanced at King Jizo, and didn't ask again. King Jizo did not answer.

It wasn't until the door was fully opened that the Dharma Ming Nyolai saw a low table on the empty floor with a rectangular wooden box the size of two palms on the table, shining through the light of the ghost fire.

Carrying the hem of his skirt across the threshold, King Jizo walked to the low table and bent down to pick up the wooden box.

"Won't you come in?"

Fa Ming Rulai just stepped into the hall, but his eyebrows were still frowning tightly.

Turning over the wooden box, King Jizo took out a piece of bamboo slips with words written for a moment and lined them up on the table.

"Birth, old age, sickness, death, resentment, love, parting, unwanted, greedy, hateful, stupid, slow, suspicious...... This is, the eight bitters and the five poisons?"

King Jizo nodded slightly.

"Don't Your Holiness think that this golden cicada has gone all the way too easily?"

"Relaxed?" Fa Ming Rulai smiled faintly. He stared thoughtfully at King Jizo.

Nodding slightly. King Jizo slowly knelt down with his monk's robes in his robes. Reaching out on the table, he sorted out the countless bamboo slips.

"All living beings in the mortal world are suffering, and the suffering beside Xuanzang is already everywhere. Take the monkey's head as an example......" He reached out and took out a few pieces of bamboo slips and folded them on the table, and said: "Greed, hatred, stupidity, slowness, suspicion, all five poisons, love parting, not seeking, five extracts, three of the eight sufferings." ”

A whole eight pieces of bamboo slips were pushed in front of the Fa Ming Rulai.

"In terms of that canopy, stupid and slow. There are two of the five poisons, love and separation, not seeking, five extractions, and the eight sufferings also have three. ”

Five more pieces of bamboo slips were pushed in front of the Fa Ming Rulai.

Spreading his hands, the King of Jizo sighed softly: "As for the others, the Black Bear Demon, the Dragon Prince, and the Rolling Blinds Heavenly General, which one can be regarded as clean? Even if you really get to the Great Lei Yin Temple, how can you win?"

Staring at the bamboo slips piled up in front of him. Fa Ming Rulai asked softly, "Then, what do you think?"

"Greed, hatred, ignorance, slowness, and suspicion are the five poisons, and all bad karma is born from the five poisons. Birth, old age, sickness, death, resentment, love, parting, not seeking, and the five extracts are the eight sufferings. Those crossed by the golden cicada are the suffering of all sentient beings. Bowing his head and rolling his sleeves, the king of Jizo said leisurely: "The poor monk thinks that the dialectic of the westward journey lies not in the Great Leiyin Temple, but in the 108,000-mile road to the west. Now that the golden cicada has made up his mind to preach, we will not let him return empty-handed. The rights and wrongs of this Pudu must be proven!"

......

Little by little, he closed the book of life and death in his hand.

At this time, in the Hall of Life and Death, the monkey's face had become extremely ugly.

In the early years, although the underworld belonged to the heavenly court, it was actually in a state of herding cattle, and as long as there was no major incident, no one cared about it at all. It was easy for the powers of the Three Realms to enter and leave the Hall of Life and Death, even if something happened, it would not be strange.

But after King Jizo took over, the underworld was no longer what it used to be.

To quietly tear off a page of the book of life and death under the nose of the Buddha, it happens to be the page that the monkey wants......

"It's ...... What do you mean?"

Clenching his fists, the monkey gritted its teeth and closed its eyes trembling slightly. The green tendons on his forehead had already erupted, and the book of life and death in his hand was clenched to a "creak".

Seeing that the monkey was on the verge of going berserk, the ghost soldiers who had been following closely to clean up the book of life and death for him were so frightened that they quickly knelt down, not daring to raise their heads.

At this moment, the monkey wanted to get angry on the spot, smashed the temple of life and death, and then grabbed the king of Jizo and asked him clearly.

He was very sure that he would be able to defeat the Jizo King one-on-one.

Don't talk about the king of Jizo, that is, the four great Buddhas have all appeared, and he has broken through the way of heaven, and he can easily take it.

But reason told him that he couldn't get angry.

Because he can defeat the four great Buddhas, but he can't completely defeat the Nyorai behind the four great Buddhas.

Let everything in the present deviate from the trajectory of dialectics, and in the end, there will inevitably be a situation that even he cannot control.

If he could directly do it to Buddhism, he wouldn't need to accompany Xuanzang for such a long time, and this walk would be several years.

The defeat of more than 600 years ago has long proved that force alone will not solve the problem, at least not achieve the outcome he wants......

After a while, the monkey finally calmed down and said to himself, "Lao Jun has only sealed the contents...... This guy actually tore it up directly. Hmph, isn't this even lazy to cover up?"

He slowly lowered his body and sat down cross-legged. Silent.

It was as if he had collapsed.

Several ghost soldiers looked up at him cautiously.

Casually abandoning the book of life and death, the monkey trembled slightly, raised his head and leaned against the bookshelf behind him, his eyes closed.

The only thing left in the silent hall of life and death was his heavy gasps.

Ghost fires radiated a strange light in the air.

The other party, this is unscrupulously trying to provoke themselves.

Yes, they succeeded.

At this moment, the monkey was already furious. Choking in one breath and feeling that he couldn't swallow in his throat made him want to immediately pick up the golden hoop stick and smash everything here.

If he was just one person, perhaps, he would have done so.

But he couldn't.

It's not the first day I've faced Buddhism. In the minds of monkeys. This is a sect that is so cunning that it is creepy. Dare to do it. They must have a backhand.

And the worst of all. What the monkey checked was the life experience of agarwood, which corresponded to Yang Chan.

Even the other party intervened in this kind of matter, which shows that even if he tried his best to keep Yang Chan out of the matter, the other party still held her as a chess piece in his hands early......

"This ...... It's clearly a conspiracy. ”

The monkey slowly opened its eyes and looked at the dark dome.

Using Yang Mou means that the other party has been able to cope with all the reactions he can make, and even wants him to react. It may be a simple provocation, but more likely a prelude to some kind of conspiracy.

As far as the facts are concerned, the importance of Agarwood's life experience is far from being comparable to the reincarnation of Cha Qi'er.

Find the legend of the finch. At the beginning, there was only one way to consult the book of life and death. If you want to check the life history of agarwood, there are countless ways for the monkey to do it, but it is not good to say this matter after all. As Tianpeng said, it was inconvenient to ask Yang Chan directly, so he rashly went to the underworld to check.

Because this is the simplest, most direct, and most hidden, it will not leave any mustard between himself and Yang Chan.

At first, what the monkey thought was to figure things out without alarming Yang Chan.

But now the book of life and death has been torn up......

Obviously. The other party already knows what he is looking for, and he knows exactly what he is doing.

Have you already checked your own background?

Blame yourself for being naïve?

Now think about it. There doesn't seem to be anything strange about it. He has been asleep under the Five Elements Mountain for one hundred and fifty years, and the other party has enough time to do everything they want to do to him, and with the strength of Buddhism, it is not impossible to investigate these things.

After thinking for a while, the monkey suddenly laughed and reached out to rub his face.

The feeling of being pinched by someone is really uncomfortable, very uncomfortable!

Slowly opening his eyes, he looked at the ghost soldier kneeling in the distance with an expressionless face and said, "The ...... of yours King Jizo, did you explain anything when you left?"

The ghost soldiers looked at each other and shook their heads.

"No...... Very good. Very good......"

It's a naked threat.

Threaten yourself with Yang Chan.

A moment ago, the monkey was still panicking about Agarwood's life experience, and now, a sharp knife has been stuck in Yang Chan's throat.

Slowly getting up, the monkey suddenly took out a golden hoop stick from his ear and slammed it on the bookshelf beside him.

I heard a loud "boom", and the bookshelf collapsed. The books of life and death on the bookshelves slanted down, and confetti and sawdust flew everywhere.

A few ghost soldiers were so frightened that they ran away.

Running straight out of a distance of hundreds of zhang, seeing that there was no movement behind them, they looked back one by one.

The expected outrage did not happen, and the monkey stood quietly with a golden rod next to the collapsed bookshelf, panting.

It was clear that he only made one move, but he seemed to be exhausted to the extreme.

The fear slowly dissipated, and a trace of doubt suddenly rose in the hearts of those ghost soldiers.

"Tell the King of Jizo for me, today's matter will not be settled like this. ”

After a while, the monkey lowered his head, turned around and walked towards the gate.

Along the way, several bookshelves were smashed by him.

......

"Yu Shizun, Sun Wukong has left the Hall of Life and Death. ”

"Are you coming this way?"

The ghost soldier replied respectfully, "If you return to the world, no. ”

"No?"

On the side, Ming Nyorai, who was on the side, took out a piece with the word "anger" written on it from a stack of bamboo slips of the monkey and shook it in front of King Jizo's eyes.

King Jizo didn't care, and casually asked, "So, what did he say?"

The ghost soldier thought for a moment and said, "He said, let the little one tell the world venerable that he won't just forget today's matter." Also, he smashed a few bookshelves before leaving, and the small ones were being repaired. ”

Hearing this, Fa Ming Rulai had no choice but to put back the bamboo slip with the word "hate" written on it.

"It's not that I'm not angry, it's just that I'm hindered by the situation and can't attack. King Jizo smiled and sighed, "This golden cicada's path to enlightenment is far away. (To be continued......)
