Wen Zhong led Zhang Muxian and Zhu Bajie into the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, and the three of them worshiped the Great Heavenly Venerable. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The Jade Emperor announced that the three of them were even, and then looked at Zhang Muxian and said, "Zhang Lingguan, why don't you get up?"

Zhang Muxian kowtowed and said: "The lower official congratulates His Majesty and asks for merit for the Demon Suppression Army." ”

The Jade Emperor said with interest: "Why are you doing He, the marshal of the Demon Slaying Legion is Tianpeng, why do you want to take credit for them?"

Zhang Muxian raised his head and said: "The Demon Suppression Legion does not avoid difficulties and dangers to exterminate the Lion Camel King, and does not avoid the power to attack Lingshan, Your Majesty has such a heavenly soldier, why worry about the restlessness of the world and the unrest of the Three Realms? ”

"Your Majesty has ordered Wechen to participate in the affairs of the Demon Suppression Legion, and Wechen is also a member of the Demon Suppression Legion, so there is a saying that he will ask for merit. ”

"Hmph, Zhang Lingguan, you and Marshal Tianpeng led the crowd to attack Lingshan and disturb the Buddha's cultivation, we are discussing the punishment of your great crime, do you still dare to rumor and bewitch Your Majesty?" Li Jing stepped out and said angrily.

Zhang Muxian turned his head to look at Li Jing: "May I ask Li Tianwang, what is the heavenly rule that this official committed?

Li Jing was speechless for a moment, and Bigan stepped out and said, "Although the picket spirit officer has the right to picket, he does not have the right to judge. How can you be innocent of killing many arhats on the spiritual mountain?"

Zhang Muxian saw that Li Jing and Bigan pointed the finger at him, and said in his heart: "I have completely provoked Buddhism this time, and these two Buddhist pioneers have completely torn their faces with themselves." However, he was resolutely not afraid, and said leisurely: "Lingshan refuses to hand over the Demon Lion Camel King and hinders the Demon Suppression Legion from subduing demons, so I naturally have to take action." ”

Bigan sneered: "Why didn't the Lingguan take a letter to the Buddha Master in advance? You are aggressive in Lingshan, and you clearly intend to expand the situation, what is your intention?"

Zhang Muxian saw Zhu Bajie standing aside, looking at his nose and nose, and he clearly wanted to stay out of the matter, and all the Taoist gods and immortals also stood by. Xin Dao: "Could it be that Buddhism and Taoism have reached a secret agreement and want to sacrifice me? Hehe, how can it be so easy, today this official will fight Buddhism and Taoism." ”

Zhang Muxian's eyes shot a cold glow, and he looked directly at Bigan and said: "Wenqu Xingjun, you hold the Heavenly Court Fortune, but you repeatedly speak for the Buddha Gate, what is your intention? Is there a Great Heavenly Venerable in your eyes?"

A big hat was buttoned up, and Bigan suddenly changed color, and said angrily: "This official's loyalty can be glorious through the ages, how dare you do such a damaging remark." ”

Zhang Muxian sneered: "Since this is the case, then please Wenqu Xingjun also speak with evidence, and don't make judgments." The official's loyalty to the heavenly court is also evident every day. ”

Bigan was unwilling, but he had to retreat.

The Jade Emperor said majestically: "Zhang Lingguan, you get up first." Then he said to Zhu Bajie: "Marshal Tianpeng, what is your explanation for this attack on Lingshan?"

Zhang Muxian took advantage of the situation to get up, retreated to the side of the hall, and said in his heart: "Uncle is helping himself, he asked Zhu Bajie about this matter, even if Taoism and Buddhism reach some kind of agreement, Zhu Bajie will never dare to repeat, otherwise he will not be able to escape the blame." ”

Sure enough, Zhu Bajie said angrily: "The lower official led the heavenly soldiers to cut off the Lion Camel King, but the Buddha Gate Lighting Lamp forcibly took the Lion Camel King away. When Zhang Lingguan heard about this, he was filled with righteous indignation, and only then did the heavenly soldiers attack Lingshan, which was fundamentally the fault of Buddhism. His words not only attacked the Buddha Gate, but also removed himself, which can be described as slippery.

The Jade Emperor nodded and said to everyone in the hall: "Are all Aiqing suspicious?"

The Antarctic Immortal Weng suddenly stepped out and said, "Qi Qi Great Tianzun, Wei Chen has something to say." ”

The Jade Emperor nodded and said, "Birthday star, please speak!"

Antarctic Immortal Weng said: "The ancient Buddha of the lamp forcibly took away the lion camel king and lost it, but the lion camel king sacrificed his life to repay the debt first, and the ancient Buddha retired with his body, still eliminating cause and effect. However, Zhang Lingguan attacked Lingshan and killed all the Arhats, which is really suspected of committing the following crimes, and if he does not deal with it today, he is afraid that it will bear evil consequences in the coming day. ”

As soon as the Antarctic Immortal Weng said his word, he immediately stood up more than a dozen people, and said in unison: "Weichen seconded the proposal, please ask the Great Heavenly Venerable to punish Zhang Muxian and eliminate cause and effect." ”

Zhang Muxian pointed at a group of people and said angrily: "You are afraid of Buddhist cause and effect, but where do you put the Heavenly Strip and where do you place the Great Heavenly Venerable?" At this moment, Zhang Muxian can feel the Jade Emperor's predicament, one-third of the Buddhist immortal officials in the entire Heavenly Court demand to punish him, and the remaining two-thirds of the Taoist and middle factions stand by and watch, and a few Jade Emperor henchmen dare not intervene.

The Jade Emperor saw a Buddhist immortal official standing in the hall, and said angrily in his heart: "Can't I even protect my nephew?" was about to protect Zhang Muxian desperately, but heard the heavenly soldiers outside the hall shouting: "Emperor Zhenwu has arrived." ”

Emperor Zhenwu is the Demon Heavenly Venerable, sitting in the north, suppressing the northern Juluzhou, and his status is only one step lower than that of the Jade Emperor.

After a while, the Emperor Zhenwu stepped into the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, followed by a boy in black and a boy in green clothes.

The Jade Emperor didn't dare to hold it up, so he got up and greeted: "Xuantian God is coming to my Heavenly Palace, and the widow has never been far away, forgive your sins and forgive your sins!"

Emperor Zhenwu said loudly: "The Great Heavenly Venerable is in charge of the Three Realms, and the affairs are complicated, so I don't dare to blame this seat." Then he turned to look at the Antarctic Immortal Weng and said, "I heard that you want to punish Zhang Lingguan for offending Lingshan?

Emperor Zhenwu was jealous and hateful, his mana was profound, and he shocked the Three Realms, and he immediately frightened the Antarctic Immortal to his knees, and said in a loud voice: "How dare the little immortal!

Emperor Zhenwu turned to the rest of the people and said, "What do you mean?"

The rest of the immortals dared to touch his tiger whiskers, and retreated into the column one after another.

Only then did Emperor Zhenwu say to the Jade Emperor: "This seat sits in the north all the year round to fight with demons, and knows that the law must not be merciful to deal with demons.

The Jade Emperor smiled and said, "Zhang Lingguan is also my minister of the humerus, I'm afraid I will disappoint the emperor." ”

Emperor Zhenwu arched his hand and said: "In this case, this seat has taken its leave!"

Emperor Zhenwu came and went in a hurry, but as soon as he entered the hall, he shocked the audience, and no one dared to directly attack him, which made Zhang Muxian leisurely fascinated.

The Jade Emperor saw that all the immortal officials had returned to their original positions, and took the opportunity to announce: "Zhang Lingguan has merit in destroying the Lion Camel King, and he has offended the Buddha of Lingshan, and the merits and demerits are offset by each other, and there is no reward or punishment, what do the Qings think?"

The two factions of Buddhism and Taoism said in unison: "Your Majesty is wise. ”

Zhang Muxian said in his heart: "Uncle's move is really suspicious of mud, so he can get temporary peace of mind, but it is indeed unfavorable in the long run." ”

When Sha Seng saw the Jade Emperor leaving, he said loudly: "Retreat!"

Zhang Muxian withdrew from the Lingxiao Treasure Hall with the flow of people, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Kuimu Wolf Star not far from the main hall gesturing to him, and there was a fighting wooden hedgehog standing beside him, and he knew that the Zhenwu Emperor could rescue him in time, and it was related to the two of them.

Zhang Muxian gestured back to the two, and when he saw the two of them going away, he drove back to the mansion.
