Yang Jian could probably guess that the reason why the Jiao Demon King happily accepted Taibai Jinxing's recruitment had something to do with their encirclement and suppression of Jilei Mountain.
As for the loyalty of the Jiao Demon King himself, it is actually not a big deal in Yang Jian's opinion.
Since he dared to transfer the Demon King, he was not afraid that he would betray him halfway, and in the worst case, we could settle the matter together.
Yang Jian's original intention was not to test the Demon King. In fact, he really wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to ask the Great Sage to meet the Demon King.
He felt very unhappy when he saw the lonely expression of the Great Sage when he was accused by the Monkey King, but he did not expect that among these brothers from back then, there was still a Demon King who was willing to stand on the side of the Great Sage...
Even Yang Jianshi had just heard what Taibai Jinxing said and wanted to see what kind of person this Demon King was.
Coincidentally, this Demon King is also the second oldest.
Navy Marshal's Mansion.
Nezha rode on the hot wheel, held the True Lord's command, and said loudly: "Where is the new Grand Marshal of the Tianhe Navy?"
"Reporting to the third prince, the marshal has gone to Beihai to collect his people in the lower realm." The deputy general on duty at the marshal's mansion heard the voice of the third prince Nezha, and saw that he was holding the token of Zhenjun Erlang in his hand, not to mention Dare to be negligent and answer honestly.
Nezha recognized him and directly gave the order: "Assemble thirty thousand elites and wait for the commander's orders, ready to leave at any time."
"yes."
Nezha turned back to the lower realm, went straight into the North Sea, and ran towards Qianjiao Shui Mansion.
His Wind Fire Wheel is a famous spiritual treasure in the three realms. It is extremely fast and can reach thousands of miles away in an instant... Although it is slightly inferior to somersault clouds like the Great Sage, it is an ordinary cloud-riding method in the three realms. It is far inferior to the Five Elements Escape Technique.
In just a few breaths, they reached the sky above the North Sea, and happened to meet the Jiao Demon King taking his 20,000 elite soldiers out to sea.
Seeing that Nezha was blocking the way, the Jiao Demon King also stopped.
Among the many divine generals in heaven, if they were to fight with him in the sea, he would be almost fearless.
But Nezha is different after all. Ever since he killed Ao Bing, the third prince of the East China Sea, there have been rumors in the three realms that he is the nemesis of the Dragon Clan... Just in terms of magical power, Jiao Demon King does not think he is inferior to Nezha, but Nezha is a mastermind. Tian Ling, with the Universe Circle in his hand, he didn't dare to defeat easily.
What's more, the Jiao Demon King didn't know Nezha's intention, so he was wary.
The demon soldiers behind him also picked up their weapons one by one, as if their king had given the order and were about to go forward and fight Nezha to the death.
After all, I have been a demon for half my life. Now, even though my king said that they were incorporated into the Tianhe navy by the heaven, it is difficult to change their identity for a while.
When I met Nezha, the great god of the Santan Haihui, I was naturally hostile as usual.
It had to be the Jiao Demon King. He knew that Nezha had not come here for no reason, so he took the initiative to ask: "I wonder what the third prince is here for?"
Because he first entered the Heavenly Palace, although he became drinking friends with Taibai Jinxing, he actually had no connections in the Heavenly Palace... It is said that when Lao Qi was in the Heavenly Palace, he had always been on good terms with the Third Prince of Nezha, maybe He is not here to cause trouble for himself.
After all, he had told everything about himself and Lao Qi to the Jade Emperor and Taibai Jinxing when he was in heaven. Now that Nezha had found him, he might have something important to do.
The Jiao Demon King is not a reckless demon clan. In terms of scheming, he is even more powerful than the Bull Demon King and the Monkey King. However, he is aloof from his brothers and has never really had a heart-to-heart relationship with him, so naturally he doesn't reveal much about it.
If not for this, he would never have been so calm when confronting the Jade Emperor in Yaochi.
Moreover, he is a disciple of Beiming, who is also a descendant of a large sect and has extraordinary insights.
It was the first time Nezha met the Jiao Demon King. At first glance...the Jiao Demon King was actually in full human form, without any trace of a dragon. He was dressed in a marshal's uniform and had a heroic air about him.
"Marshal." Nezha cupped his hands, then raised the token in his hand and said, "The real king has made an order."
Before leaving Yaochi, Demon King Jiao got some advice from Taibaijinxing and knew that Zhenjun Erlang was now one person inferior to ten thousand people in Heaven. He also had the power to control Heaven's soldiers and horses. Naturally, his Tianhe navy was also within the opponent's dispatch range. within.
So he surrendered his hands and obeyed the order.
After General Nezha passed the order, he landed next to Jiao Demon King and said with a smile: "Second Brother issued the order not to make the marshal an enemy of the Bull Demon King and other demon kings, but mainly because the Great Sage has been suppressing him under Wuzhi Mountain for many years. Now, The Bull Demon King gathered a group of demons to deal with him again... Hearing that the Marshal and the Great Sage have always been good deeds, we specially arranged for the Marshal and the Great Sage brothers to gather together."
The Jiao Demon King was stunned for a moment, then he sincerely bowed his hands in the direction of the Flame Mountain to thank him, and then said to Nezha: "Thank you so much for your kindness, Zhenjun, but now that you are a god and receiving orders, how can you do something that is not professional... I want to First, lead 20,000 elite soldiers to ambush on both sides of Ji Lei Mountain, wait for the Bull Demon King to leave the mountain, and cut off his lair when he fights the True Lord from the Flame Mountain."
"Send another 30,000 naval troops to cut off their retreat, compete for victory in one battle, and completely wipe out the monsters in Jilei Mountain."
After hearing what the Jiao Demon King said, Nezha immediately bit his back teeth and said in his heart: "He seems to be a gentle and gentle man, but his behavior... is really ruthless!"
The Jiao Demon King could go from being a little Jiao who was expelled from the Dragon Clan to becoming the Demon King of a party. Naturally, he was not a kind-hearted person. He was able to show his full strength this time. He was also the Grand Marshal of the Fengtian River Navy who was thrown into the heaven. His body was naturally very tough.
Moreover, the Jiao Demon King knew clearly that since he was determined to surrender to the Heavenly Court, he would never do anything that was inconsistent with snakes and rats. Now that Ji Lei Mountain was being annihilated... wouldn't it be the opportunity for him to declare his surrender?
Otherwise, you will not be reused by the Jade Emperor in heaven, but you will be jealous... It is better to be a demon in the lower world.
Maybe the demons of the Three Realms will say that he is a ungrateful person, but he has been a victor and a loser since ancient times. When Ji Lei Mountain is trampled to pieces... who knows what kind of demon the Bull Demon King is?
After the two sides exchanged information, the Jiao Demon King asked his confidants to lead the demon soldiers to the vicinity of Ji Lei Mountain, while he transformed into his original form and went straight to the Tianhe Water Mansion, leading the 30,000 navy troops that had already assembled down to the mortal world.
In the Yaochi, after listening to Taibai Jinxing's report, the Jade Emperor could not see any emotion or anger. He just rested his hand on the jade eucalyptus and stretched out his hand to support his chin.
Taibai Jinxing saw that the Jade Emperor was lost in thought, so he held up his hands and retreated, but before his feet even left the ground, he heard the Jade Emperor say: "Who do you think gave him the courage?"
Taibai Jinxing lowered his head and did not raise it, perhaps because he was afraid that his expression would be seen by the Jade Emperor. Perhaps others would not notice the change in the relationship between the Jade Emperor and Yang Jian, but Taibai Jinxing, as the Jade Emperor's closest favorite, would naturally be able to There was a vague feeling that something was unusual.
But for this kind of thing, even if you have guessed it, you have to pretend not to know. It is best to keep it in your stomach. Before the Jade Emperor and Erlang God take the initiative to expose it, you can't even let it out even if you kill it.
Now hearing the Jade Emperor's question, Taibai Jinxing could not pretend not to hear it, and said: "Your Majesty, the true king is devoted to the public, and besides, he has the Three Realms in mind..."
"You said I have selfish motives and don't have the Three Realms in my heart?"
Taibai Jinxing: Your Majesty, it’s pointless to deliberately seek trouble.
...
Nezha returned to the large tent of the Huoyan Mountain military camp.
At this moment, the formation in the Flame Mountain has been set up, and they are just waiting for the monsters from Jilei Mountain to come and break the formation.
As for what kind of formation it is, this formation is so chaotic that nothing can be clearly seen from the outside.
Fahai and others didn't ask, just waiting for the Bull Demon King to come with his demon soldiers to find out for themselves.
"Second brother!"
After Nezha received the money, he first called him second brother, and then explained everything that happened after he met the Jiao Demon King.
Everyone was surprised when they heard this, especially the Great Sage, who was moved and even frowned.
Compared to the Great Sage who was worried about the situation of the Demon King, everyone was more impressed by the courage of the Demon King, especially King Li Tianwang who pretended to be the leader. He said in his heart: "It is the duty of a minister to eat the emperor's salary and be loyal to the emperor. "
"Amitabha." Fahai was able to understand Wukong's state of mind at this moment. After reciting the Buddha's name, he said to Wukong: "Since the Jiao Demon King has been made a god, it is his duty to destroy the demons in the lower world... This battle Afterwards, your two brothers will meet again after a long absence, so let’s catch up on old times.”
"yes."
Although the Great Sage agreed, he was still a little entangled in his heart. He didn't know whether he was happy or worried about this matter.
The six-eared macaque, who was always listening to the movements of the demons in Jilei Mountain, said: "The demons of Jilei Mountain have set off. There are three demon kings on this trip: the Bull Demon King, the Peng Demon King, and the Lion and Camel King. There are also thirty-six caves. The demon kings led a total of more than 60,000 demon soldiers. Only the six cave demon kings were left to guard the mountain, with less than 10,000 demon soldiers."
Yang Jian immediately ordered: "According to the plan, each of us will respond to the enemy."
This large formation is not meant to deal with the three demon kings such as the Bull Demon King, but is specially prepared for the demons of Jilei Mountain. This is not a killing formation... After all, it is necessary to set up a killing formation, and it can only be temporarily mobilized. The 30,000 heavenly soldiers, even Yang Jian did not have this ability.
This formation is a trapped formation.
The murderous intent was not in the formation itself, nor in the thirty thousand heavenly soldiers, but in the formation's Meishan brothers and twelve hundred grass-headed gods.
There is only one eye of the formation, which is the mountain peak pressing down on the Great God of Ventilation. Except for Yang Jian and Master Sanzang who are personally in charge here, King Li Tianwang who seems to be holding the formation is the last line of defense.
The Great Sage, Liu Er and Nezha seem to be the first line of defense outside the formation, corresponding to the three demon kings: the Bull Demon King, the Peng Demon King and the Lion and Camel King.
As for Bajie, Wujing and Xiaobailong, they were also placed at several key points of the formation. After all, the Demon King of Thirty-six Cave was dispatched from Jilei Mountain, and he was not an easy person.
Today's Huoyan Mountain can be said to have many soldiers and generals. Even during the Conferred God War, Yang Jian rarely fought such a wealthy battle... After all, he is a grain inspector. Unless he is blocked by the generals who follow him, he will also take turns. Until he takes action.
But even so, he was the most powerful in the Conferred God War. Even the many second-generation disciples of the Second Sect of Interpretation were not as dazzling as him.
Everyone went to their respective posts according to the plan.
Yang Jian, Li Tianwang and Fa Hai sat down on the spot in front of the Great Sage Ventilation.
When the Great Sage Ventilation saw this scene, he knew that there was something happening on the Ji Lei Mountain side, "Despicable."
Yang Jian smiled and said: "Isn't it despicable that you took advantage of us to surrender the fire spirit and launched a sneak attack? Besides, I set up a battle formation and it was fair and aboveboard... How can I call it despicable?"
The Great Sage of Ventilation snorted coldly and said nothing more.
"It's just that he was captured because his skills were inferior to others." Fahai said at the side, "If you really can't calm down your resentment, you might as well listen to a poor monk reciting a Buddhist sutra."
King Li Tian also smiled and said: "I have heard that the holy monk's Dharma is profound for a long time. Although I have met him a few times before, I have never heard of the holy monk's Dharma. Now that I have met him, I am really blessed."
The Great Sage of Ventilation became angry: "My brother is coming. You don't go to meet the enemy, but you entertain me here... It's too much."
Yang Jian explained his doubts: "It doesn't matter. I think the Great Sage and others can stop them if they are outside... It's just that they were lucky enough to rush into the formation and get here..."
Snapped!
Yang Jian unfolded the folding fan in his hand and waved it gently in front of his chest, "I am here to keep you company."
...
Lingshan.
Dharma Ring and Jin Zha brought the body of King Buddha Ma Yuanzun to the Buddha in the back mountain of Lingshan Mountain.
It seemed that the two of them were in a daze, and they vaguely saw a black-robed monk walking freely in mid-air.
"Pay homage to the Buddha." Fajie stepped forward and bowed to the Buddha sitting on the golden lotus. Jin Zha, who was behind him, was half kneeling on the ground and held the body in front of him. Then Fajie continued: "Ma Yuan's soul He has been saved by a poor monk, and his true spirit is still scattered in the three realms."
The Dharma Precepts may sound nice, but in fact it will drive Ma Yuan's soul away.
It is the duty of the Vinaya Yuan to handle punishments and punish monks who violate the precepts. Moreover, it can still save sinful spirits, and the merits are immeasurable.
"Get up now, no need to be polite."
The Buddha waved his hand lightly and saw the body of King Buddha Ma Yuanzun floating in the wind.
Jin Zha then took out a list of names and sent it to the Buddha with a respectful expression: "My Buddha is merciful, but the monks in Lingshan Mountain are indulgent. The Arhats in the mountains, the Bodhisattvas on all peaks, and the true Buddhas in all realms all violate the precepts... What I have discovered is just the tip of the iceberg, but it is shocking."
Dharma Precepts said on the side: "There are very few people who can stick to their nature of mind, and there are many absurd things in the Buddhist realm, which have spread widely... I would like to ask the Buddha's decree to give you some guidance."
The Buddha probably thought for a while that after Tang Sanzang arrived at Lingshan, if he knew that the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Lingshan had such faces, he didn't know what trouble would happen.
But if they only relied on the Dharma Precepts and Jin Zha, they wanted to deal with the matter before Tang Sanzang arrived at Lingshan... Obviously the two of them did not have such ability.
After thinking for a long time, the Buddha finally said: "Please invite Guanyin Bodhisattva of the South China Sea."
The Buddha's invitation will be responded to by the Bodhisattva.
In a short while, we arrived at the lotus platform of the pagoda.
Fa Jie performed the ceremony of a peer, and Jin Zha performed the ceremony of a disciple.
After the Bodhisattva returned the gift, he made a salute to the Buddha and said: "Now there will be a war between the Flame Mountain and the Jilei Mountain. The poor monk has thought hard for a long time and does not know how to resolve this disaster. I would also like to ask the Buddha for advice."
Buddha: .....
Lingshan was immediately in chaos, and he was still worried about the life and death of the monsters in Jilei Mountain... I can only say that he is worthy of the compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva.
But the Bodhisattva asked, and as a Buddha, he naturally answered the question: "This is the calamity of the monsters in Jilei Mountain. This generation of disasters in the world is the retribution of cause and effect."
The Bodhisattva clasped his hands together and said with a smile: "There should be karma and retribution."
After hearing the Bodhisattva's words, the Buddha immediately understood that she probably didn't want to get involved in this matter.
"The poor monk once said to Tripitaka that if I don't see the evil ones, I will kill them. If Tripitaka ignores the good ones, the poor monk will get rid of them." The Bodhisattva looked at the Buddha seriously and said: "Buddha, retribution has come."
