Let's put aside the story of Sun Wumao and Zhu Bagou for a while, let's talk about the Erlang God first. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It is said that Erlang God left the prison in a hurry, led the heavenly soldiers to stride out of the South Heavenly Gate, summoned Caiyun, and went straight to Tushi Palace.

That Tushi Palace is one of the palaces of Taishang Laojun, located in the thirty-third heaven - from the hatred of the sky, which is five layers higher than Xiu Letian, where the heavenly palace is located.

Heaven, there are twenty-eight heavens, respectively, the six heavens of the desire world, the eighteen heavens of the color world, and the four heavens of the colorless world, but this "color" is not the color of the "womanizer", but represents the colored body, and the "desire" represents desire.

Erlang God led the heavenly soldiers to drive the clouds and approach, swept their backs and looked up, only to see that Tushi Palace, tall and majestic, occupy more than a mile of the place, the seat west faces east, is located at the top of the peaks of the green hurried, there are seven peaks in the north and stand side by side, pointing to the long sky Beidou, there are hundreds of peaks to the sun in the south, showing the vitality of Vientiane, there are streams passing through the middle of the north and south peaks, flowing slowly, like a silver snake meandering forward.

Look at the Tushi Palace closely, about ten zhang high, nine big pillars support the top of the palace, the wall of the Tong Zhu Fei, the heavy eaves Danying, covered with gray glazed tiles, surrounded by granite guardrails, very solemn.

Erlang walked to the bottom of the Tushi Palace, stepped down the colorful clouds, and said to the heavenly soldiers: "All the generals are on standby outside the palace." ”

"Yes!" all the heavenly soldiers responded.

Erlang God held up the three-pointed two-edged knife with both hands, and the four heavenly soldiers stepped forward together, and formed a row, knelt on one knee, raised their hands above their heads, and after receiving the three-pointed two-edged knife from Erlang God's hands, they stood up together, a little difficult.

Erlang God walked alone to the Tushi Palace.

Looking at the main hall of Tushi Palace from a distance, an old man with white sideburns and fairy wind and crane bones is holding a sword in front of the furnace, he is wearing a yellow robe, embroidered Tai Chi on the robe, and leading the thorn gossip, this person is Taishang Laojun. The furnace in front of him is called the Bagua Furnace, Sun Wukong's Ruyi Golden Hoop Stick and Zhu Bajie's Nine-tooth Nail Rake are all refined from this furnace, and the sword in his hand is called the Seven Star Sword, which is used when refining demons.

"Shin-kun is here. Before Erlang God could speak, Taishang Laojun waved the seven-star sword to greet him first.

Erlang God stood under His Royal Highness and arched his hand: "Qi Laojun, there are changes in the six paths." ”

Taishang Laojun put away the seven-star sword, let out a long breath, put the sword into the sheath, slowly walked down the hall, and replied: "I already know." ”

"How's that good?"

"Alas......" Taishang Laojun stroked his beard, sighed, and said earnestly: "It seems that there is destined to be this catastrophe!"

Listening to Taishang Laojun's words, Erlang God was puzzled, staring at Taishang Laojun, waiting for his explanation.

Taishang Laojun turned his back on his hand, paced in front of Erlang God, and asked, "Three hundred years, just this thirty-sixth layer of Da Luo Tian, how many years have you remembered?"

Erlang God thought for a moment and replied, "It must have been two hundred years. ”

"Well, hehe!" Taishang Laojun nodded and smiled, "After tomorrow, it will be two hundred and one years." ”

Taishang Laojun continued: "The Seven Heavens opened in front of us, we only took ninety-nine years to successfully open, this last layer of Da Luo Tian, seeing that it can be opened tomorrow, I don't want to meet the three-legged cat again! Alas, I didn't expect that this three-legged cat would not give up after two hundred years of hindering me, and I didn't dare to approach when I saw the black dog guarding here, but he attracted his body into the center of the six realms and broke my Heaven Opening Formation!"

"Erlang has captured the three-legged cat, and now he has been put in prison. ”

"Well, I already know, how can you be so sure that it's a three-legged cat?"

I saw that he looked very similar to the three-legged cat, but there was one more foot, I was not sure, so I asked him if he could recognize my Erlang God, I wanted to test his reaction, I didn't want him to be so nervous, I was suspicious, so I wanted to capture him first and torture him, and then I didn't want to be at the moment of his life and death, but he showed a demon body, so I was sure that this cat must be a three-legged cat. ”

"Well, hehe! This cat is indeed inseparable from the three-legged cat, but it is not the three-legged cat's demonic body. ”

"Oh?

"Hehe!" Taishang Laojun joked: "Erlang Zhenjun, your eyes are indeed Shenwei, the only regret is that you can only distinguish the appearance, but you can't distinguish the image in your heart!"

Erlang God smiled: "Lao Jun came to make fun of me again, how can you say this?"

Taishang Laojun then smiled and said, "Do you know where the white cat that was beaten into the prison by you came from?"

"Erlang doesn't know, and I ask Lao Jun to make it clear. ”

Taishang Laojun stroked his beard, put away his smile, and replied: "Well, these words, we have to start with Pangu opening the sky! When the heaven and earth were not divided, Pangu woke up in his sleep, split the darkness with an axe, and the heaven and earth began to divide, Pangu turned into all things, his eyes turned into the sun and the moon, his limbs turned into the four directions, his skin turned into the earth, his blood turned into rivers, sweat turned into rain and snow, his voice turned into thunder and lightning, and his breath turned into the four seasons. That white cat, which was Pangu's last breath, turned into a somersault cloud, to talk about it, but it was the same age as me! It's just that two hundred years ago, he was subjugated by the Lingshan Rulai, reincarnated as a white cat, and became the head of the Lingshan Eight Yin Protectors, guarding the Lingshan Mountain to protect the Lingshan from internal worries. But the somersault cloud is the same age as the sky, and Lingshan Rulai is only how old he is, so the cat's obsession in his previous life has not disappeared, and he does not obey the teachings, and is proud of the other seven protectors, so he feels that he has a demon in his heart, and he is a "Lingshan demon pet", so he asked him to accompany Tang Sanzang's apprentice Sun Wukong, and go to the Eastern Tang Dynasty to teach the true scriptures, in order to grind his heart, remove the demon in his heart, and achieve positive results. ”

Taishang Laojun continued: "The three-legged cat that has repeatedly come to obstruct my opening of the sky is the demon in the heart of this Lingshan protector. ”

"I see, I didn't expect this cat to be the same as Wu'er, both from Lingshan. ”

Taishang Laojun saw that Erlang God mentioned "Wu'er", so he continued to ask: "You actually know the origin of the black dog?"

"Oh, this Erlang has heard a little. Erlang God smiled embarrassedly and replied: "Wu'er was originally the guard dog of the Chang'e fairy in the Guanghan Palace, two hundred years ago, the Jade Emperor gave Wu'er to Rulai as the head of the four protectors of Lingshan in order to befriend Lingshan Rulai, and guarded Lingshan under Lingshan to protect Lingshan from external troubles. At that time, Fairy Chang'e was still grieving for a long time because of this incident. ”

"Oh, hehehe!" After hearing Erlang Shen's words, Taishang Laojun laughed and continued to ask: "Then do you know that the black dog was later sent by Rulai to accompany Tang Sanzang's apprentice Zhu Bajie to travel east to spread the scriptures?"

"Oh, is there such a thing?" Erlang God exclaimed, "I really don't know this! Why was Wu'er also sent? Could it be that Wu'er also has a demon in his heart?"

Taishang Laojun stroked his beard and smiled and nodded: "Yes, not only the black dog has demons in his heart, but all living beings have demons in their hearts, and all living beings are parasitic to demons, but most of them have not been stimulated or do not admit it." Then do you know why I ordered you to go to the Guanghan Palace to summon this black dog?"

Erlang God realized, and replied: "Could it be that the demon in the heart of the cat of the Spirit Mountain, afraid of the demon in my heart?

"Hehe!" Taishang Laojun said with a smile, "I can't talk about demons, it's just a coincidence of restraint." ”

"Then why didn't you summon it earlier? But you waited two hundred years, and fought against the three-legged cat for two hundred years before it was summoned?" Erlang was puzzled.

"Well...... How can I summon a dog to watch the house, and besides, to help me do something they don't support or even oppose!"

"Well, what Lao Jun said is extremely true, even our Jade Emperor does not approve of it, let alone his family's Rulai!"

"Well, fortunately, it happened that the black dog traveled east and left Lingshan, so I ordered you to summon him, and since then, the demon of the Lingshan cat has never come, but it is self-defeating by the three-legged cat's parasitic body to extinguish the light of hell and break my formation to open the sky. ”

"Then this black light, can it be re-lit?"

"Alas......" Taishang Laojun sighed and shook his head in embarrassment, "There is only one way, but I'm afraid you won't be willing to do it." ”

"Oh, in order to open the heavens, I can resist the decree and disrespect me, so why can't I give up?"

Taishang Laojun replied earnestly:

"The black dog with a demon in your heart, are you willing to give it up?"

"What do you mean, Wu'er?"

"Yes. ”

Erlang God clenched his palm, hesitated for a moment, and replied, "Other than that, is there any other way?"

"There is no other way. Taishang Laojun shook his head with a sad face.

"Laojun, otherwise, we won't open it this day!"

"Nonsense! In the past three hundred years, we have been joking here? How much have we paid? Moreover, the black and white impermanence is separated from the inside and outside, and the gate of hell can no longer be opened, and only by breaking this thirty-sixth major Luo Tian can the gate of hell be reopened, and there is no reason to give up in public and private affairs!"

"Even if Yiwu'er lights up the black light, won't that three-legged cat have no nemesis again, won't it come to obstruct it again, won't it still be able to open the sky?" Erlang said vigorously.

"The devil is born from the heart, the heart is in the devil, the heart destroys the demon, if you want to completely eradicate the demon in the heart of the cat of the spiritual mountain, there are only two ways, either use his own hands to destroy the demon in his heart, or destroy his own heart with the hands of others. ”

"In that case, then I'll persuade him to destroy the demon in his heart!"

"If he can destroy it himself, then Lingshan Rulai didn't persuade him earlier, and it will be your turn?"

"Then I will destroy the demon in his heart for him!"

"The demon is invisible, who can destroy it, directly confront an invisible demon, can you hurt him?"

"Then I'll just kill the cat and destroy his heart!"

"You can't kill him, didn't I say, the devil is born from the heart, the heart is in the devil, the heart destroys the demon, if the demon knows that the heart will be destroyed, the determination helps the heart to fight, the heart demon is invisible, if the heart and the devil resist, you can't hurt it, how can you kill him?"

"What should I do then? Could it be that this day, can't I really open it?" Erlang frowned.

"There is only one way to destroy this demon!"

"I hope Lao Jun will make it clear!"

Taishang Laojun stroked his beard and told this method to Erlang God.
