The arena of the heavens.
Baoxiang country.
Tang Sanzang followed thousands of Xuanjia troops, enjoying the support of thousands of people, and left Baoxiang Kingdom...after Baoxiang County in the Tang Dynasty.
Recalling the experiences of these days, his whole body became numb. In the past few months, he could be said to have witnessed with his own eyes what General "Li Erlang" did.
Five thousand Xuanjia troops easily destroyed the Baoxiang Kingdom without any effort.
Then, hundreds of thousands of troops wearing Tang Dynasty armor walked out the way they came and wiped out all the transformed little monsters within a thousand miles.
The general who was as solid as a rock, even more powerful than monsters, and the literati who could bring out great righteousness into the world by reciting poems... Tang Sanzang was dumbfounded.
It wasn't until after walking for dozens of miles that Tang Sanzang came back to his senses, looked at "Li Erlang" who was also riding a white horse, but looked particularly high-spirited, and asked:
"Erlang...how did Datang become so powerful?"
"Reciting poems can make Haoran's righteousness manifest in the world...it's incredible."
On the side, the three demons Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing were also curious.
It's just that they claim to be the Great Sage Qitian (Marshal Tianpeng) (General Rolling Curtain), and they can't save their face by asking.
Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, heard this and said lightly:
"Martial arts and literary arts are no big deal. It's just your majesty's chance encounter with immortality, which can make the Tang Dynasty more powerful."
"I heard that Your Majesty is planning to allow ordinary people to enter the spiritual path in a few days. By then, the people of the Tang Dynasty will be like dragons!"
Sun Wukong thought of his "kind-hearted" neighbor, the Dragon King of the East China Sea, and advised him kindly:
"Erlang, what you said is wrong. It should be that everyone is like a monkey. Everyone in the three realms knows that the Dragon Clan of the Four Seas is the weakest, and they can only bully the untransformed little monsters."
"At the peach feast in that court, there was a delicacy called dragon liver and phoenix marrow."
Zhu Bajie scolded unceremoniously:
"Everyone is like a monkey, Bi Mawen, please stop bragging."
Halfway through, Zhu Bajie pulled Tang Taizong enthusiastically and said with a smile:
"Erlang, you are my best friend, Lao Zhu. Hehe... can you give me a few copies of Wen Dao Kung Fu?"
"Since I was born, I, old pig, have been guarding Tianhe and in charge of 80,000 sailors. I have never killed a single mortal in my life."
"I'm sure I can feel the righteousness of Haoran and cultivate the way of literature!"
Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty asked in surprise:
"Marshal Tianpeng, why do you want to practice literary education? That literary education is not comparable to the magic of you gods."
Zhu Bajie scratched his head in embarrassment, looking ashamed to speak.
Sun Wukong lay on the back of his horse, with his hands behind his head, his legs crossed, and he said casually:
"Why else? Isn't it just that you want to use Haoran's righteousness to transform the Chang'e fairy that this idiot thinks about day and night?"
"You idiot, you are so lustful and stubborn. You can't even recite a line of poetry, but you still want to practice literature?"
Zhu Bajie's face turned red and he said angrily:
"Nonsense! Why can't I, an old pig, recite poetry?"
At this point, Zhu Bajie knew that it would be impossible if he didn't show some real knowledge and talents.
For the first time, a serious look appeared on the pig's face. He coughed a few times, looked at the blue sky, and said slowly:
"The strong wind is blowing and the clouds are flying...My fair lady...flowing from left to right..."
One breath!
Three breaths!
After a long cup of tea, Tang Taizong, who was free and easy by nature, finally couldn't hold it in any longer.
He laughed out loud and praised:
"Hahaha... Marshal Tianpeng... This is how you recite poems and lyrics... My Fair Lady... flow from left to right... Hahaha..."
"Isn't it Guan Guan Jujiu, who lives in the river island, where the fair lady and the gentleman are fond of fighting, and the water plants are scattered around, flowing from left to right?"
at the same time.
Not far away, Li Bai, Bai Juyi and others who were chatting also laughed out loud when they heard the movement here.
"Snapped"
Sun Wukong picked up Zhu Bajie's ear with one hand and turned it around hard. Zhu Bajie grinned in pain and begged for mercy, and then he was willing to give up and threatened:
"Idiot, shut up for me, grandson. If you dare to embarrass me again, I, grandson, will..."
As he talked, Sun Wukong was a little confused as to what to do.
There's nothing I can do about it, this idiot who loves to eat, is lazy, and lusts after beauty, cares about eating and not fighting.
Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, had a wicked smile on his face and said:
"Just change the roller curtain general into the appearance of the Chang'e fairy, then get the canopy marshal drunk, and lock the two of them together~"
Zhu Bajie turned his head and glanced at the ugly-looking Sha Wujing, who had a strong back and a strong waist, and suddenly took a breath of cold air.
Looking at Tang Taizong, his eyes were full of disbelief, as if he were looking at an evil ghost in the underworld, begging for mercy:
"No, no, no, no, senior brother, Erlang, I know I was wrong and I won't dare to do it again!"
Sun Wukong and Tang Sanzang also couldn't help laughing and said:
"Erlang, I really didn't realize it, you are quite smart!"
"Amitabha, General Li... don't tease Wu Neng next time."
Only Sha Wujing, with a grimace on his face, moved to the side in disgust, deliberately avoiding his second senior brother who was also a heavenly deity with him.
After some joking, Tang Taizong took Zhu Bajie to Li Bai and others and said:
"Marshal Tianpeng, I was just joking. Don't take it to heart."
"Taibai, Letian, you must help Marshal Tianpeng practice the art of literature."
Li Bai flicked his long beard and said:
"General Li has orders, and Taibai must obey them."
Bai Juyi and others also agreed one after another. Being able to serve Emperor Taizong was something that many people dreamed of doing?
Seeing this scene, Zhu Bajie patted Tang Taizong on the shoulder and said with joy:
"Okay, okay, Erlang, I, the old pig, did not recognize you as my brother in vain. If you encounter danger in the future, you will give me the name of the old pig!"
Tang Taizong Li Shimin glanced at the three masters and disciples of Tang Sanzang who were chatting with Li Jing, Cheng Yaojin and others, and said with a smile:
"Marshal Tianpeng, it's just a trivial matter, it's not worth mentioning."
"It's just that I don't understand something. Did you just say that as soon as you were born, you would be Marshal Tianpeng?"
"Could those magical powers and secret arts be known from birth? Where did the monsters and mortals in the human world come from?"
"Could it be that the gods and Buddhas in the sky created mortals and monsters and just used them as luck to eat?"
Since arriving in these three realms, the more Tang Taizong knew about the horror of the gods and Buddhas in the sky, the more curious he became.
How are these gods and Buddhas in the sky different from the creatures in the human world? Why can they be born with those magical powers and secret arts?
Could it be that they were the first creatures born when the world first opened? How did monsters and mortals appear?
After Zhu Bajie took the Wen Dao Kung Fu from Li Bai, he looked down and said casually:
"Aren't all gods born with knowledge and possessing magic weapons and spells?"
"As for those mortals and monsters, they are originally used by the gods and Buddhas in the sky to absorb luck."
"If Fairy Chang'e didn't like to absorb luck, I, the old pig, wouldn't have stopped making progress after so many years."
