Chapter 669: Poor Demon Clan
The demon clan of Beiju Luzhou has been very strong after so many years of recuperation, and if it weren't for the battle of cutting the sky, the overall strength of the current demon clan can even be called the first.
It's a pity that after the fall of the demon master Kunpeng, Zhenwu was also controlled by Hanzhen, and the great sages of the demon clan were either dead or injured or living in seclusion, and there has been no strong person to integrate the demon clan, and the infighting is endless, otherwise they would have stepped out of Beiju Luzhou a long time ago.
Therefore, when Tang monks and apprentices came to Beiju Luzhou, they saw a thriving and chaotic contradictory scene.
Their first stop was that although there were traces of the road, there were thorns and thorns on the left and right.
I never thought that the eighteen princes turned into the land god and brought the Tang monk to the Muxian Nunnery, which is the place where the four elders of cypress, cypress, bamboo, and pine became jīng.
The four elders of the Eighteen Princes have a heart to the Tao, and they heard that Tang Seng is a Buddhist monk, and they want to sit and discuss the Tao with Tang Seng, and they are also very happy to talk about each other.
Unexpectedly, at this time, an apricot fairy came to match Tang Seng, but it was the Buddha who woke up Tang Seng, making Tang Seng appear in front of people.
Sun Wukong and other apprentices found Tang Seng. That Zhu Bajie built down these trees one by one.
Seeing that Tang Seng couldn't bear it, Sun Wukong said: "Master doesn't pity him." I am afraid that I will become a big monster, and I will harm people a lot. ”
The reason why Zhu Bajie swept away the tree was not because he was active, but because he was at the behest of Taishang Laojun.
Taishang Laojun obviously figured it out, as soon as the list of earth immortals comes out, there are always people who want to be on the list, and now the rise of Buddhism is the general trend, and Confucianism is bound to occupy an orthodox position, which is an indestructible force, so Taoism wants to preserve its own strength, and it is necessary to send people to the list of earth immortals.
Just like the original gods, the Sect of Interpretation didn't want the Twelve Immortals to have anything to do, so they had to find a way to let the disciples of the Sect Intercept take the place of the calamity.
And this object is the demon creature.
Of course, it is not only Taoism that is targeting the creatures of the demon clan, but also Hanzhen, the Jade Emperor God, and the Buddhists are also aiming at the demon clan.
The demon clan has long become a problem for the major forces in Beiju Luzhou, and there is no good reason before, so they can only secretly absorb and domesticate the demon clan.
Of course, the main reason is that although the demon clan is not a group of dragons without a leader at this time, at least the leader is relatively weak, like the powerful Zhenwu is already Han Zhen's subordinates, and they are no longer enough to fight against the general trend of the world.
Now that there is an opportunity for Journey to the West, how can the major forces be willing to let them go.
For Zhenwu, although he is subordinate to Hanzhen, the demon clan forces regard it as their own forbidden body and do not hand it over, and of course Hanzhen will not help him much this time.
A demon clan that has been transformed into a king, a demon clan who exercises monarchical power, is the demon clan that the Jade Emperor God needs, not a demon clan under the control of Emperor Zhenwu.
And the demon clan does not have a powerful and demon-like figure, and does not see the situation, including some demon clans who do not know the avenue, such as the Eighteen Dukes and other four elders do not realize the true meaning of the journey to the west, and they still think about what to sit and talk about, then the result can be imagined.
For the demon clan, the Tang monk of Journey to the West is either the elixir of life or the rations.
On the way forward, Tang Seng was plundered away again and came to the Pipa Cave, where the banshee teased Tang Seng and wanted to have fun with him.
For Tang Seng's piece of immortal meat, he either refined it into an elixir to swallow it, or used it to suck Yuanyang, and the banshee undoubtedly used the second method.
However, at this time, Tang Seng is no longer as good as when he just entered the west, adding two more points of Buddha xìng in Dongsheng Shenzhou, and using the "Maha Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra", which is not something that ordinary monsters can get close to.
And the strength of the banshee is also extraordinary, although it is not Da Luo, but it is also a master of the Taiyi Golden Immortal Rank, looking at the Tang Seng supported by the Buddha, he said hatefully: "No matter how insistent it is, it is only a situation of one or two rì, just from me, everyone is happy." ”
Tang Seng was secretly anxious, but there was no better way, he only hoped that these two apprentices could rescue him.
Besides, Sun Wukong found the Pipa Cave and fought with the banshee, including Zhu Bajie, Sun Wukong, and Sha Seng all fell into the way of the banshee, and the banshee had a very powerful magic weapon, mysterious and unpredictable, and it was impossible to prevent it.
If it weren't for the help of the three of them, they would have been killed here by the banshee.
Seeing that the three of Sun Wukong suffered losses, Guanyin Bodhisattva, who knew the true appearance of the banshee, appeared, and the Bodhisattva said: "This demon jīng is very good. His three-strand fork is the two pincers that are generated. The person who stabs people is a hook on the tail, which is called 'inverted horse poison'. It's a scorpion jīng. The former was listening to the Buddha's talk about the scriptures in Leiyin Temple, and when he came to see him, he didn't want to push him with his hand, so he turned the hook and pricked the thumb of his left hand. If it comes, it hurts uncontrollably, that is, King Kong takes him. Here he is. If you want to save Tang Seng, it's better not to sue you. I can't get close to him. ”
Sun Wukong asked: "Wang Bodhisattva instructs, don't tell that person to go, the disciple will go and invite him." ”
The Bodhisattva said: "You go to the Guangming Palace in the East Heavenly Gate to ask for the Pleiades Star Official, so that you can subdue." ”
After seeing Sun Wukong, the Pleiades star official knew the reason, so he said: "This matter must be decreed by God, and it is the right way." ”
Han Zhen immediately ordered: "Capture the banshee in the lower realm of the Pleiades star official." ”
Before coming to the Pipa Cave, I saw that the star official stood on the hillside, showing his true appearance, it turned out to be a big rooster with a double crown, raised his head, about six or seven feet high, and screamed at the demon jīng, and the monster immediately appeared in its true image, which was a scorpion jīng the size of a pipa.
The star officer screamed again, and the banshee was soft and died in front of the slope.
Besides, the master and apprentice came to Huoyun Cave, and the red boy wanted to refine Tang Seng into an elixir, but Sun Wukong hit the door.
It's a pity that Sun Wukong has this smoke robbery, this smoke is not from ordinary flames, but the real fire of Samadhi, its water and fire do not invade, after pouring water, its smoke almost blinded Sun Wukong, very tricky.
The walker was so caught up in his fireworks that he couldn't look for strange things, couldn't see the path in front of his cave door, and jumped out of the fire.
In the end, Guanyin Bodhisattva personally took action and adopted the red child as a boy to help the Tang monks and apprentices survive the catastrophe.
After the Huoyun Cave and through some realms, Tang Seng and his apprentices came to the Flame Mountain, but they suffered a fire catastrophe and could not move forward for a while, but fortunately they knew that there were banana fans that could be borrowed.
The banana fan is owned by the Rakshasa Girl, the princess of the iron fan of Cuiyun Mountain, and this Rakshasa Girl is the wife of the Bull Demon King of the Demon Clan's new Great Sage level, and her strength is also very strong.
The Bull Demon King occupies this territory within a radius of thousands of miles, and is the king of demons here, and he also has a concubine who is a fox jīng, who lives in the Moyun Cave of Jilei Mountain, named Princess Yumian, and it is his wisdom that runs this place like an iron bucket. engulf
The red boy suffered before, and the Bull Demon King wanted to risk death to save him, but he was stopped by the concubine Princess Yumian and said: "King, not to mention that the child has been trapped by Guanyin Bodhisattva, as a boy is also a way out, and there will be a chance to get out of trouble." This journey to the west is full of mysteries, with my fox family's ability to estimate that the demon clan is in crisis, and if you are not careful, you will never recover, and please be careful with the king, and it is better to survive this catastrophe and then stop it. ”
And whether it is Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie or Sha Seng, they all got the will, to the effect that "the Bull Demon King is willing to be a minister, so he will be left alive, otherwise he will be killed." ”
