Chapter 81: A Catastrophe
Zhang Muxian was stunned when he heard this, and said in disbelief: "Uncle, there is no problem with Garuda, right?
The Jade Emperor shook his head and said solemnly: "Mu Xian, you must listen to me in this matter, on this eventful time, any stranger who deliberately touches you has a different purpose." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Zhang Muxian disagreed in his heart, and said in his heart: "The Jade Emperor has been a great Tianzun for too long, and he is too suspicious. ”
Zhang Muxian's demeanor was in the eyes of the Jade Emperor, and he warned again: "Mu Xian, my uncle has gone through 1,750 tribulations, and he has experienced countless conspiracies and calculations, and there are countless ghosts in people's hearts, and the hesitation and struggle in it are difficult for outsiders to understand. You didn't work in the economy before, and under my wing, naturally no one calculated you, but now that you come out to do things, there will naturally be people around you for the sake of interests, and you must not be guarded against. ”
"Yes, Mu Xian remembered!" Zhang Muxian said in a low voice.
The two were silent for a long time, and the Jade Emperor took out an inch-square jade box from his arms and handed it to Zhang Muxian and said: "There is a nine-turn golden pill in it, Daozu opened the Danyuan Conference, and my uncle secretly hid one of it." You put it away and take it down in the future, and you can help you turn it around. ”
Zhang Muxian didn't pick it up, and said solemnly: "This golden pill is so valuable, let's leave it to my uncle!"
The Jade Emperor shook his head: "Uncle is in the Heavenly Palace, where will there be danger? If there is really danger, this golden pill will not be able to save his life." ”
Zhang Muxian saw that the Jade Emperor's face showed a trace of fatigue, and his whole body was shocked, "Why did Uncle say this?" In his memory, the Jade Emperor had ruled the Three Realms for more than 200 million years, and he had never shown weakness like today.
The fatigue on the Jade Emperor's face flashed away, and then he said as if explaining the aftermath: "If something happens to your uncle one day, you have to take the responsibility of your brother and protect the safety of Zi Yan and the seven of them! Your cousin Yang Jian is a trustworthy person, he lives at the mouth of the Guan River, and if he is not in the moment of life and death, do not let him come to the heavenly court." ”
The Jade Emperor's words as if he were explaining the aftermath were shocking, making Zhang Muxian feel numb, and he was about to ask the reason, but the Jade Emperor said again: "You just remember these words, don't mention them in front of anyone in the future, it's best not to think about it." ”
Zhang Muxian nodded solemnly, and then took the jade box into his arms.
Seeing this, the Jade Emperor waved his hand to accept the god list, and smiled at Zhang Muxian: "Xiao Qi and Jia Luo are just afraid that they won't return so soon, we ......"
Just as she said this, Zi Yan rushed into the hall with a golden giant eagle with a panicked expression.
Zhang Muxian saw that the giant eagle's roots and feathers were shining like gold, and he was looking at himself triumphantly, and said happily in his heart: "Garuda has broken through! Why does Zi Yan look so frightened?"
The Jade Emperor frowned and said, "Xiao Qi, what happened?"
Zi Yan knelt down and said, "Back to my father, Garuda has eaten all the peaches!"
Garuda opened his mouth and retorted: "Sister Beauty, you can't wronged me, there are clearly seven hundred peaches on the tree!"
Zhang Muxian's body trembled when he heard this, and his face turned pale.
There are 3,600 peach trees in the peach orchard, 1,200 in the front, ripe in 3,000 years, 1,200 in the middle, 1,200 in 6,000 years, and 1,200 in the back, ripe in 9,000 years. But this "year" is the year of the human world, if calculated according to the time of the heavenly realm, those peaches are about ten, twenty, thirty years to ripen, so the peach orchard can harvest about 10,000 ripe peaches every year.
Now Garuda has only 700 peaches left, and the gods and immortals can't use the peaches to continue their lives and avoid the catastrophe, so they have to be reincarnated and rebuilt, which is simply a disaster greater than the sky.
The Jade Emperor also had an ugly face and said, "Back then, Sun Monkey ate thousands of peaches and caused the Three Realms to shake, how can this be good?"
Zhang Muxian glared at Garuda angrily, and Garuda said pitifully: "Master, after eating those peaches, you can break through to the human fairyland, so I couldn't hold back for a while." Then it spread its wings on Zi Yan's shoulders and showed off: "Master, do you think my feathers are beautiful? Now I can have wings of 30,000 miles!"
Seeing that it hadn't realized the seriousness of the matter, Zhang Muxian couldn't help but be angry in his heart, summoned the four-way sword, and slashed at its head.
Garuda looked at Zhang Muxian blankly, and didn't even dodge.
Zhang Muxian solidified the Sihe Sword on the top of Jialuo's head, and couldn't do it anyway, turned around and kowtowed to the Jade Emperor and said: "Jialuo is my mount, it has committed such a serious crime, Muxian can't escape the blame, please uncle to punish it." ”
Seeing Zhang Muxian kneeling on the ground, Garuda hurriedly flew up from Zi Yan's shoulder, stood beside Zhang Muxian and said: "Jade Emperor, I eat peaches, one person does things and one person is responsible, if you want to punish me, it has nothing to do with the master." ”
Zhang Muxian said angrily: "Garuda, shut up!"
Garuda shrunk her neck, not daring to speak again.
The Jade Emperor sighed: "No matter who causes such a catastrophe, they will be skinned and torn apart, and their souls will be reduced to the eighteenth layer of hell, and they will never be able to be reborn." ”
Garuda's voice trembled, "Can the punishment be lighter?"
The Jade Emperor said solemnly: "It is a matter of life and death for all immortals, and I can't open the net, otherwise it will inevitably lead to turmoil in the Three Realms." ”
Zhang Muxian has been thinking hard about countermeasures, and at this time, he raised his head in a flash of inspiration and said: "Uncle, so far, we can only make mistakes." ”
The Jade Emperor frowned and said, "How can you make a mistake?"
Zhang Muxian raised his head, his eyes blazing, and said: "We are determined to reduce the yield of peaches this year, and only 700 are ripe, and let those immortals compete for them." If the Jade Emperor adopts this suggestion, it will be tantamount to putting all the responsibility on himself, and once the truth comes out in the future, it will inevitably deal a huge blow to his prestige.
After finishing speaking, Zhang Muxian looked up at the Jade Emperor, who pondered for a moment and said to Zi Yan: "Xiao Qi, you go to Pan Tao Garden to spread the decree to the land and the gang of hoeing trees, transporting water, repairing peaches, and cleaning the wrestlers, and say that this year's peach harvest is not good, and there is only 700 harvests." ”
Zi Yan's eyes showed a look of surprise, "Such a serious disaster, my father actually took it for my cousin?"
The Jade Emperor turned to Zhang Muxian and Jia Luoluo and said: "If you do this, you may be able to hide from ordinary immortals, but you can't hide from the power of the Three Realms, don't talk nonsense after you leave the palace." Hey, the storm is coming, and I really don't know how to end it. ”
Zhang Muxian lowered his head and said apologetically: "Uncle, I'm sorry!"
The Jade Emperor smiled: "It's not as serious as you think, the peach orchard is my uncle's, what can I do if I eat all the peaches?"
Zhang Muxian's eyes suddenly moistened, it involved the life and death of thousands of immortals in the Three Realms, and the Jade Emperor was willing to resist for him, how could the feelings in this be described in words?
The Jade Emperor waved his hand and said, "Don't be a little daughter, go back!"
Zhang Muxian took Garuda out of the Bullfighting Palace, caught up with Zi Yan and said, "Seventh sister, can you pass on your weaving skills to me?"
Zi Yan looked shocked and nodded.
