He Shou Wujing came to the Heavenly Palace above the Nine Heavens, on the top of the clouds. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

There is an immortal official in the Heavenly Palace, just like a county order in the world, high up and managing the grievances of the immortals.

"Lord Xianguan, the old man has grievances, there are grievances, and I ask Lord Xianguan to make the decision for the old man. He Shou Wujing knelt on the ground with a miserable look, as if he had suffered a great grievance.

Sitting on the throne was a man dressed in a scarlet robe, a man who was as large as a god in a mortal temple, high and inviolable.

"Oh, it's you, He Shou Wujing, aren't you about to become an immortal? The immortal official glanced at He Shou Wujing and said in some surprise.

But listening to this tone, I have known He Shou Wujing for a long time.

He Shou Wujing cried and shouted: "I also ask the immortal official to be the master of the old decay, the old decay was harmed by the thieves and almost cut off the road to becoming an immortal, you look at the beard and rhizome of the old decay, but all the excess ones were forcibly taken by the thieves......"

"Don't be excited, you should tell this matter in detail, if you encounter demons and monsters, this official should send a letter to the Ministry of Thunder, and ask the Thunder Princes of the Ministry of Thunder to kill the demons and seek justice for you. Xianguan said.

He Shou Wujing said: "Lord Xianguan is above, the old man did not encounter a demon or a ghost this time, but met a mortal, and the thing is like this...... "He told the story of the previous day.

Of course, during this period, it was indispensable to add fuel and vinegar, portraying Li Xiuyuan as a heinous thief and bully, and saying that he was a pitiful and innocent spirit.

"Lord Xianguan, you have to call the shots for the old decay. ”

After the immortal official stopped listening, he muttered: "You said that the thief who killed you is called Li Xiuyuan?"

"Yes, yes, my lord, his name is Li Xiuyuan. He Shou Wujing said.

"But the one from Guobei County?" asked the immortal official.

"Yes, yes, that's right, he claims to be Li Xiuyuan of Guobei County, and the immortal official originally knew about this thief. He Shou Wujing said with great joy.

The immortal official's face immediately changed, and he immediately became serious: "He Shou Wujing, do you know that you are contaminated with great cause and effect? If you don't get rid of the cause and effect, when you become an immortal, there will definitely be a thunderstorm that will kill you." ”

"What?" He Shou Wujing was shocked: "Lord Xianguan, you miscalculated, the old decay is a grass and tree spirit monster, born and raised, as long as you don't go out of the mountains and forests, and don't kill, there will be no heavenly calamity, and you will become an immortal smoothly." ”

"This premise is that you have to have merit, but your merit is long gone, without merit shelter, you have to deal with the calamity, although you are born and raised, not involved in cause and effect, but to become an immortal, you still need to go through a human calamity, you Li Xiuyuan is your human calamity. Xianguan said.

He Shou Wu Jing hurriedly said: "The old decay has been in the mortal world for more than ten years, hanging pots to help the world, curing diseases and saving countless people, and the merits are immeasurable, and there has long been the merit of becoming an immortal, why is the merit of good and decent gone?"

"Let this official investigate this matter. The immortal official frowned and flipped through the thick book next to him.

Books are neither gold nor jade, nor paper, and when turned over, you can check the various pasts of immortal people, such as the Sansheng Stone of the underworld.

A moment later.

The Immortal Officer raised his head, stretched out his hand, and a mana flew out of his sleeve, and a scene manifested.

In the scene, halfway up a mountain peak, a young man is surrounding a copper furnace, burning fire and alchemy.

"Do you know this person?" asked the Immortal Officer.

He Shou Wujing trembled.

The immortal official stretched out his hand again, and the picture changed, and thirty years later, the young man turned into an old woodcutter, and he was still around the copper furnace to burn fire and alchemy.

"This woodcutter, you have trapped him for thirty years with a lie, and your merit has been lost, so you have a human robbery. Xianguan said.

He Shou Wujing hurriedly said again: "Although the old decay has done this, there should still be merit." ”

"Indeed, although you have been trapped by a mortal for thirty years, you still have a lot of merits, but the remaining merits are not enough for you to become an immortal smoothly, and before you said that Li Xiuyuan asked you for medicine, and you had three problems to test him?" asked the immortal official.

"Yes, yes, the old man wants to see his sincerity, how do you know that this thief is so hateful, he actually grabbed the old man and wanted to chop the old man and boil the medicine. He Shou Wujing said angrily and angrily.

The immortal official shook his head and said: "It's not important, the important thing is that he completed your test, but you didn't give him the medicine, the first test, you asked Li Xiuyuan to give you 10,000 taels of silver, Li Xiuyuan had completed it in half a day, but you didn't give him the medicine, the second test, you asked Li Xiuyuan to hunt twenty hares, Li Xiuyuan did it in half a day, the third test, you asked Li Xiuyuan to play chess with you to make you happy, Li Xiuyuan completed it in one day, but still didn't give him the medicine." ”

"Wait, the official miscalculated, you still have a fourth problem, that is, let Li Xiuyuan play chess to win you, Li Xiuyuan won later, but you still refused to give him medicine. ”

"Even if it's four small tests, it won't make all the old merit go away. He Shou Wujing argued with a red face.

The immortal official asked, "If someone in the mortal world deceives others, what crime should they be sentenced for?"

"To deceive others is, at best, a moral debt and should not be convicted. He Shou Wujing said.

"What if someone is not deceiving ordinary people, but court officials?" asked the immortal official.

He Shou Wujing said: "This person has committed the crime of bullying officials, and he will be beaten on the board." ”

"What if someone deceived the mortal emperor?" the immortal official asked again.

He Shou Wujing replied: "If someone deceives the emperor, then this is the crime of deceiving the emperor and will be killed." ”

"And what if someone deceives the sage?" the immortal officer asked again.

He Shou Wujing said: "If someone deceives the sages, although they will not be killed, they will be scolded by the whole world, and they will never be able to raise their heads to be human again. ”

"Then which of the three crimes of deceiving officials, deceiving the emperor, and deceiving the sages is the most serious?" said the immortal official.

He Shou Wu thought for a moment: "The crime of deceiving officials is the lightest, the crime of deceiving the emperor is second, and the crime of deceiving the sages is the heaviest. ”

"Why? Fooling officials will be beaten, deceiving the emperor will be killed, and deceiving sages will not be punished with either a board or a killing, but the crime is the heaviest. The immortal official asked with a smile.

"A person who is beaten by an official will be laughed at for a month at most, and he will be killed by the emperor for more than ten years at most, but if he deceives the sages, he will be spurned for a lifetime, which is worse than death. He Shou Wujing said.

The immortal official smiled: "Li Xiuyuan is a saint in the world, shouldn't you suffer this calamity if you deceived him?" And you deceived him a total of four times, the first time, your merit is gone, the second time, you can no longer become an immortal, the third time, you are about to become a catastrophe, as for the fourth time, your killing robbery is coming, you are not dead now because you saved Li Xiuyuan's father to offset the killing robbery, you left the medicine stem, offset the catastrophe, but you are still one time away. ”

"If you don't pay back this cause and effect, you will never become an immortal. ”

"This, this ......"

He Shou Wujing was sweating profusely when he heard this, and he trembled all over: "Li, how can Li Xiuyuan be a saint in the world?

"The matter is already very clear, He Shou Wujing, what else do you have to say?" said the immortal official.

He Shou Wujing hurriedly shouted: "The old decay does not believe it, the old decay has been hanging the pot to save the world for more than ten years, and the merit is immeasurable, why did God not bless the old decay, is the merit fake? Is it just a deception and it is gone? Besides, what kind of saint is that thief, can he compare to the sons?"

"Whether Li Xiuyuan is a saint or not, it is not up to us to decide whether you are better than the princes, it is precisely because you have merit, so your first test, Li Xiuyuan completed it within half a day, this is God reminding you, let you give him the medicine, and survive this human tribulation smoothly. ”

The immortal official said: "Such an easy human tribulation, but I don't know how many spirits I envy, the second test, Li Xiuyuan completed it in half a day, this is the heaven to take care of you like this kind of spirit to open the net, you are born to raise, do not stick to cause and effect, much less than ordinary goblin tribulation, but you have wasted these two opportunities." ”

"If you want to become an immortal, you don't have great merit in your body, you still have to experience a catastrophe after all, you wasted two opportunities, so the third time you are already entangled in cause and effect, and when you become an immortal, there is a chance that you will die under the thunder tribulation, but you deceived Li Xiuyuan four times, and your retribution can no longer wait for the time to become an immortal, so you suffered a killing robbery at that time. ”

The immortal official said, and then said: "This is the will of heaven, this official will not care about your matter, your grievance is not a grievance, it is your calamity, if you still want to become an immortal, go to Li Xiuyuan to end this cause and effect, and then continue to accumulate merit." ”

He Shou Wujing was stunned at the moment, not knowing what to do.

After a long time, he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, sighed, and then arched his hand: "Thank you Lord Xianguan for reminding me, the old man knows in his heart, so he won't bother Lord Xianguan." ”

After speaking, he opened his mouth and spit out, and a stream of medicinal qi condensed into an elixir and flew towards the immortal official.

"You have cause and effect with the saints in the world, and this complaint will not be accepted by the official. The immortal official waved his hand and returned the pill.
