The gold and silver boy followed Li Anran obediently, unaware that everything he had done was known to Li Anran.
They were still a little uneasy about being imprisoned in the sky jail.
However, compared to killing a monkey or being killed by a monkey, this is the best result for them.
"Go in. You C324, you C325."
Li Anran did not embarrass them, and locked them in two adjacent cells, and ordered the heavenly soldiers and generals to exempt them from their daily dose of copper juice and iron pills.
Firstly, it's because the gold and silver boy's sin value is only one star. Apart from accidentally hurting many living beings during the fight, he has never done any bad things.
Secondly, it was because Li Anran admired them.
Although the four words "repaying gratitude" are taken for granted, there are not many people in this world who can do it, and those who can do it like the gold and silver boy are even rarer.
The monkeys just formed a good relationship casually, but what they got in return was that the two brothers fought to the death to repay each other.
All we can say is that the monkey is worthy of being the protagonist of destiny and is favored by heaven!
However, this is also related to the fact that the gold and silver boy does not know the inside story of Xitian's Buddhist scriptures.
If they knew that the success of Xitian's Buddhist scriptures was related to Xuanmen's fate, even if they showed mercy to the monkey, they would definitely kill Zhu Bajie and the others.
Later, Li Anran rode the clouds to the Temple of Justice and told Yang Jian that the evil method of refining demons into elixirs came from the hands of Taishang Laojun, who originally used it to refine monkeys.
Because the Jade Emperor has always been thinking about the goodness of the ancient Demon Court Emperor Jundong Huangtai, the Jade Emperor has never been very fond of the demon clan. As long as the heaven does not have such pills that harm Tianhe, he is too lazy to care about the life and death of the monsters. .
However, Yang Jian has been secretly investigating over the years.
When Li Anran told Yang Jian this, Yang Jian didn't show too much surprise. Instead, he showed an expression of "it's really him".
It was Yang Jian who captured the monkey and brought it back to heaven. When Taishang Laojun asked Ying to extract the medicinal power from the monkey's body, Yang Jian was also present.
Coupled with the sporadic evidence that has been investigated over the years, he has long suspected that the method of refining demons into pills is related to Taishang Laojun.
But there has been no definite evidence!
Li Anran's coming this time helped him confirm this!
Yang Jian's eyes flashed coldly, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone: "You have already occupied the name of Taishang Taoist, and you are thirty-three days away, and you are still not satisfied!"
Li Anran asked: "Second brother, what is the relationship between Taishang Laojun and Taishang Saint?"
Yang Jian explained: "During the God-Sealing Catastrophe, Saint Tongtian set up the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation and shattered the prehistoric continent into four pieces, which are now the four major continents. After losing, he tried to repeat the chaos and reopen the world. world."
"Thanks to Dao Ancestor's intervention, Saint Tongtian was stopped, allowing all living beings to avoid this world-destroying catastrophe. In order to avoid such a situation in the future, Dao Ancestor took the saints to leave the Three Realms and went to the Zixiao Palace in the midst of chaos. Since then, the saint has not appeared in the world."
"Except for Saint Nuwa, the other saints used their great supernatural powers to cut off a ray of thought before leaving the Three Realms and stayed in the Three Realms. That is, today's Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, Taiqing Daodetianzun and the Amitabha and Jieyin Buddhas of the West.”
"They come from saints, have the name of saints, and even have some memories of saints, but they are not saints. Especially after so many years, they have been contaminated with worldly thoughts, and they have gone further and further away from the saints. "
"So that's it." Li Anran nodded slightly, showing a look of surprise.
To put it simply, these chopped thoughts are equivalent to the spokesmen of the saints remaining in the Three Realms.
When they were first cut out, they were no different from the Supreme Saint except that they did not have the magical power of the Saint.
However, because they do not have the ability of saints to remain uncontaminated by cause and effect, as time goes by, their distance from saints becomes more and more different, and they begin to have their own selfishness, greed, etc.
Yang Jian, Nezha, and Taiyi Zhenren initially respected Taishang Laojun as a saint, but after they discovered this, they respected Taishang Laojun much less.
Nowadays, he is no longer regarded as the incarnation of the Supreme Saint, but only as the Supreme Lord in the Tushita Palace.
Li Anran asked again: "Second brother, do you mean that this evil law was spread intentionally by Lao Jun?"
Yang Jian said: "Lao Jun's Tushita Palace is in Lihentian, and even in Heaven, few people go there. If he hadn't spread it out on purpose, who could have learned this evil method? He also has the ability to cut off all the clues. So that I can’t find any evidence related to him?”
Li Anran asked: "Why did he do this?"
Yang Jian shook his head: "I haven't figured this out yet. However, his evil method uses benefits to stir up people's hearts and provokes a vendetta between humans and monsters. He must have ulterior motives and evil intentions."
Li Anran's heart suddenly moved, and he had a thought: "Second brother, do you think he...has also violated the laws of heaven?"
Yang Jian was startled and quickly realized what Li Anran meant. He was a bit dumbfounded: "Do you want to imprison Lao Jun in the sky prison?"
"right."
Li Anran was very bachelor, and said righteously: "I once heard a saying in the mortal world, which is called 'the emperor breaks the law and the common people are guilty'. This saying is equally suitable for the three realms! All living beings are equal, gods and Buddhas break the law, and the common people are guilty. Everyone is guilty!"
"All living beings are equal. Gods and Buddhas who break the law are guilty of the same sin as mortals!"
Yang Jian muttered repeatedly, his eyes getting brighter and brighter.
This is not exactly what he wants!
However, he also needs to add one point to this, that is, he must first compile a law of heaven that is fair and reasonable and applies to the three realms!
Yang Jian looked at Li Anran with burning eyes and said, "Brother Li, do you really think so?"
"Uh..." Li Anran was startled by Yang Jian's reaction and forgot to answer for a moment.
Yang Jian was a little disappointed when he saw this.
Li Anran obviously just made a high-sounding excuse for himself. What he wanted was not equality before all beings before the law of heaven at all, but just to imprison Taishang Laojun in the heavenly prison.
However, he soon became happy again.
No matter what Li Anran's original intention was, what Li Anran wanted coincided with him.
After he finished revising the rules of heaven, he would definitely find someone to sacrifice the sword to establish authority and credibility for the new rules of heaven.
Laojun’s portion is more than enough!
If Lao Jun is imprisoned in the sky prison, even for just one day...
No, even half an hour is enough to shock the entire three realms, making no one dare to despise the laws of heaven!
Yang Jian said seriously: "If you want to imprison Lao Jun in the sky prison, the evidence must be conclusive, and he must have made a big mistake. Just refining demons into pills is not enough."
Yang Jian's attitude is already very obvious.
Li Anran's eyes suddenly lit up. If Laojun can do it, Guanyin and the like will definitely have a chance.
He began to figure out how to send these gods to the prison.
There are only so many powerful people in the Three Realms, and most of them are still in Tianting Lingshan, and they are all big bosses!
It was impossible for Li Anran to arrest them in the sky prison, and he didn't have the ability.
However, he can use the law of heaven to send them to the heavenly prison justifiably!
It is impossible to gain experience points by being imprisoned for a long time, but he can watch the lives of these gods and Buddhas.
Moreover, when they are released from prison, he will get additional rewards!
This is equally precious to him!
After talking about this, the two of them talked about learning from the West.
Soon, there was a rumor that "eating Tang Monk's meat will make you immortal".
Li Anran said: "I don't know where this rumor came from, but so many monsters believe it! I'm really speechless!"
Yang Jian smiled and said: "Brother Li, you guessed wrong this time. If you eat Tang Monk's meat, you can indeed live forever. Moreover, if any banshee takes away Tang Monk's Yuanyang, you can realize Taiyi."
Li Anran opened his mouth wide and shouted: "How is this possible?! Tang Monk is already the tenth reincarnation of Jin Chanzi. No matter how different Jin Chanzi is, by this time, he has already become the same as the ordinary people. No different! How could it have such an effect?"
Yang Jian smiled and said: "Tang Monk himself does not have this effect, but what if someone has it?"
Li Anran reacted instantly: "Are you talking about Taishang Laojun?"
Yang Jian nodded and said: "Laojun should have seen through Tathagata's intention of letting Zhu Bajie and the others be the protectors of the Dharma."
"In order to prevent gods and monsters from being merciful in the face of Emperor Donghua and the others, he secretly sent a message to the three realms. Whenever a monster eats Tang Monk's meat, he will allow it to eat a nine-thousand-year-old flat peach. After that, he will naturally live as long as heaven and earth and live forever."
"If a banshee absorbs a ray of Yang from Tang Monk, he will give her a Nine-turn Golden Pill so that she can break through to the Taiyi realm."
"Ah?!" Li Anran was surprised.
He never expected that the secret of Tang Monk's meat would come like this!
"Lao Jun is quite generous."
Li Anran was a little curious and couldn't help but ask: "What about Taiyi Tianzun? As the headmaster of Xuanmen, he didn't do anything?"
Yang Jian said: "Master Taiyi and Laojun have differences on this matter. Laojun believes that the later Buddhism flourishes, the better for Xuanmen, but Master Taiyi feels that now that the catastrophe is about to occur, it is better to waste time than to Instead of trying our best to prevent the inevitable rise of Buddhism, it is better to give in and let Buddhism take the lead."
Li Anran was slightly startled, but he didn't expect Master Taiyi to have this idea.
But after thinking about it, it seems to make sense!
Every catastrophe since the beginning of the world has been catastrophized by the most powerful forces in the Three Realms.
Now that the catastrophe is beginning to appear, it is a good idea to let Buddhism take the lead!
Yang Jian said: "It's not just this. It's also the fact that the gods and Buddhas of the three realms are working together to trigger the disaster in advance. Master Taiyi didn't agree with it at first."
"Uncle Taiyi has always felt that the essence of catastrophe is the entanglement of karma and cause and effect. It is good to do more of this kind of thing and make fewer mistakes and not do it less."
"In the beginning, the religion was cut off because they did not listen to the saint's words, closed the mountain gates, and sat in the Yellow Courtyard to chant, which led to the near-annihilation of the religion."
"Now that the gods and Buddhas of the three realms have joined forces to take the initiative to cause disaster, it is likely to be self-defeating and self-defeating."
"However, there are too many gods who agree to this matter. Not only Lingshan and Tushita Palace, but even Wuzhuang Temple are involved, Master Taiyi has no choice but to agree to give it a try."
"Laojun saw that Uncle Taiyi was reluctant, so he took the initiative to take up the matter. Now, he is planning the matter of Xiniu, Hezhou and Xitian to obtain scriptures, and the matter of Dongsheng Shenzhou Shangdong Eight Immortals."
At this point, Yang Jian's eyes showed a hint of sarcasm, and he continued: "Uncle Taiyi issued a decree and ordered all Xuanmen disciples, including me and Nezha, to obey Laojun's orders in this matter. Cooperate with Laojun’s actions.”
"However, Laojun saw this as a good opportunity to earn merit, improve his cultivation, and recruit disciples. He didn't want me to participate too much, so he excluded me."
After listening to what Yang Jian said, Li Anran understood the cause and effect of the whole thing.
No wonder Taiyi Zhenren only sent his mount nine lions to show his face in Hezhou, Xiniu, and soon he went down to earth and took the nine lions back, so that’s it!
Yang Jian then talked about the Eight Immortals of Dongsheng Shenzhou Shangdong.
Taishang Laojun has basically decided on this matter, generally referring to the matter of seeking scriptures from the West.
According to the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, Laojun defined the Eight Immortals in Shangdong as the eight forms of mortals: male, female, old, young, rich, noble, poor, and humble.
The eight immortals in the Western Heaven overcame ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties to obtain the true scriptures. The eight immortals in the cave overcame their shortcomings and overcame tribulations to become immortals. Finally, the eight immortals crossed the sea and showed their magical powers.
Xitian Buddhist scriptures use the lives of monsters to resolve calamity, while the Eight Immortals in Shangdong use the lives of the Sihai tribe to resolve calamity.
In addition, Laojun also has the idea of taking the Eight Immortals of Shangdong and Xitian to learn Buddhist scriptures as a counterpoint.
Lingshan used the Western Heaven to obtain scriptures to promote the mystery of Mahayana Buddhism, and he used the Eight Immortals in the Shangdong to promote Taoist teachings and compete with Buddhism for believers.
In this way, even if the gambling battle in the West to obtain scriptures ends in Xuanmen's failure, Xuanmen will not lose too miserably.
With this idea in mind, Taishang Laojun secretly played a trick, and before the Buddhist scriptures had even started in the West, he had already started planning for the Eastern Victory of the Eight Immortals in Shangdong, China.
Nowadays, Tieguai Li and Han Zhongli among the eight immortals in Shangdong have overcome their tribulations and become immortals.
And as Fairy Peony was tortured by nine lives of love, she came to the tenth and last life——
In this life, if she still fails to understand and cultivate to become an immortal, her wisdom and immortal bones will be basically broken, and it will be as difficult as ascending to heaven to become an immortal again.
Emperor Donghua also followed the agreement, entered the reincarnation tunnel, and was reincarnated as a mortal in Dongsheng Shenzhou.
He wants to go through a love affair with the Peony Fairy in this life, and transform into an immortal through the reincarnation of the Peony Fairy, in order to prove that he is devoted to the Tao and has never moved his mortal heart.
Speaking of this, Yang Jian hesitated for a moment and said: "Brother Li, when my third sister and I were chased by Heaven, if Emperor Donghua hadn't come to help, our brothers and sisters would have died in the hands of the pursuers. Now Emperor Donghua has been reincarnated. , I'm worried that someone will plot against him, and I want you to help me take care of him."
He also explained: "Although Laojun is nominally the Taishang Taoist and has the highest status among Xuanmen, the headmaster of Xuanmen is Uncle Taiyi. Over the past few years, he has been fighting for power with Uncle Taiyi overtly and covertly, and he regards me as It’s a thorn in the side, so I really can’t get involved in this matter.”
