Down the mountain is the border. Another country is called Wuji Country. The country is still stable, but due to the influence of Baoxiang Country, there are many more refugees.
They couldn't defeat the Jiejiao gods of Baoxiang Kingdom, but they could deal with the Wuji Kingdom's army, so they occupied the Wuji Kingdom and became kings, making the people's livelihood miserable.
It is said that they are all people from the Buddhist country, and they should be peaceful, but the evil spirit has already entered their hearts, and they cannot survive if they are defeated and flee. It is no wonder that they become evil and courageous, and some rabbits that do not bite people become cannibals and do not spit out bones. The hungry wolf.
The Wuji Kingdom was retreating steadily, and seeing that the royal city was about to be lost, an experienced man suddenly appeared to help, and the situation was stabilized.
However, it is difficult to hold up a tree alone. It is more than enough to defend the city, but not enough to make progress. It can only watch a large number of bandits running rampant and occupying the country.
…
There are few people in Xiniu Hezhou who don't know the name of Xuan Yan and his entourage, because they were the ones who made Bao Xiangguo find an excuse to eliminate Buddha.
The bandits saw them as if they were plague gods, and wanted to chop them into pieces with their knives.
But there is still a monkey king, Monkey King Monkey King Sun Wukong. He knows he can't beat them even if he doesn't even try, so he can only watch them leave.
Xuan Yan and others were also frightened for a while. If Zhu Bajie had ignored the Monkey King and the Monkey King did not come back, they might have to fight all the way.
The problem is that the magic power of these bandits is really not weak. They have basic Buddhist skills and advanced demonic skills. They practice both Buddhism and Demonism. The master of Jinchi is no more than that.
And along the way, there are such bandits everywhere. It's no wonder that the Wuji Army can't deal with them.
…
Xuan Yan wanted to persuade these Buddhist disciples who had gone astray to return to the right path, but his Buddhist teachings were not enough, and they were not enough to convert him.
Fortunately, Yamazaki and others took over later, which reassured Xuan Yan.
It was up to Gao Cuilan to persuade them one by one to return to their homeland.
In terms of cause and effect, Gao Cuilan, the former leader of Baoxiang Kingdom, had already circled those Buddhist kingdoms, and they had no reason not to go back.
If they comply, let them take it with them and salute them and leave. If they don't comply, just hum.
Li Yingqiong, Zhou Yanyu, and Scorpio were all bored and wanted to rob, while Li Jingxun also wanted to get more fighting experience.
Arrest people and send them to Farewell Joyful Heaven or the pagoda of Jiuku Zen Monastery, and hand them over to you to transfer and collect merits.
In terms of cause and effect, Li Yingqiong took the opportunity to go to the Farewell and Happy Heaven, which was regarded as a gift to the Farewell Buddha Wu Jieya.
Li Jingxun got married to Princess Lihua, and got married to Jinchi, the current master of Jiu Ku Chan Monastery.
Zhou Yanyu rode up to Yamazaki, and rode to Xu Feiniang.
…
In order to wipe out the bandits in the Wuji Kingdom this time, Xuan Yan deliberately did not go in a straight line and walked in zigzags, trying to visit every force so that Yamazaki and others could deal with them all.
The Wuji Kingdom is only a few hundred thousand miles away, and it can only take three or four years to travel in a straight line.
But walking back and forth was another matter. It took nine years of running before we reached the royal city.
At this time, Xuan Yan was nearly eighty years old.
…
After entering the city and clearing the customs, Xuan Yan and others were going to leave after staying in an inn for one night.
After dinner in the evening, we went out shopping together as usual to experience the local customs.
Everyone laughed and played until the moon rose. Sha Monk was walking on the road and suddenly felt that something was wrong in the palace. It was filled with black air and a ghostly atmosphere.
Sha Monk cultivates the ghost path, and everyone believes that his words are not without purpose.
Sun Houhou simply transformed into a night bird and sneaked in to check, but he saw that the ghostly energy came from a well in the cold palace.
He didn't want to do this job, so he went back to find someone to help him.
Xuan Yan thought that his current fighting ability was only mediocre, so he asked his disciples to go with him.
Monkey Sun asked him to sit in the middle of the room, then drew a circle with a golden hoop, and used his small magical power to draw the ground as a prison to build a protective place.
As jailers, Xuan Yan and others could come and go freely, but others could not.
…
Cold palace.
Sun Houhou brought his three junior brothers over and asked them to go into the well.
Zhu Bajie didn't want to move, so Sha Seng and Xiao Bailong went down.
After a while, Sha Seng came to find Zhu Bajie.
Sun Houhou was surprised, "Junior Brother Sha, what's going on?"
"Elder brother, this king is so lucky that he actually raised a dragon and helped the dragon build a crystal palace at the bottom of the well."
"So what? But he did evil?"
"My little brother can't explain this clearly at the moment. I came because Xiao Bailong said that the second senior brother was Marshal Tianpeng back then and learned how to control the dragon clan. He asked him to go down and win the trust of the Jing Dragon King."
"It's true. I'll wait until I, the old pig, change my appearance."
Zhu Bajie turned into a human form and followed him into the water.
…
Downhole.
Outside the magnificent Crystal Palace, Xiao Bailong was talking to King Jing Long. When he saw Zhu Bajie coming, he immediately introduced him.
Zhu Bajie pinched the secret and cast a spell, which immediately caused the two dragon clans to feel it.
King Jing Long believed their identity this time and led them inside for a detailed discussion.
The black energy in the palace is indeed emanating from the well, and it comes from a body, the contemporary king of the Wuji Kingdom.
More than thirty years ago, the Baoxiang Kingdom conquered the world, causing the Wuji Kingdom to become infested with bandits.
An old Taoist helped to protect the royal city and the lifeline of the Wuji Kingdom.
The king asked the old Taoist priest to stay and treat him as a national teacher.
But he didn't want to be fooled by the old tricks, seize the throne step by step, and even cause the son to kill his father.
The old king fell into a well and should have died. It was the Well Dragon King who saved him and preserved his last trace of yang energy.
It's just that the old king was full of resentment and suddenly became a demon.
The Dragon King of the Well didn't want him to go out and another father would kill his son, so he kept him at the bottom of the well.
The resentment of the old king accumulated more and more, and the magic power became more and more powerful. Even the Dragon King of the Well could not suppress it. Only then did the resentment of the old king rush out of the well.
…
Everyone was confused after hearing this. They couldn't understand the turmoil between the throne and the fighting and killing between father and son.
Reluctantly, he went back to Xuan Yan and explained the situation to him.
Xuan Yan was very dizzy after hearing this. All he could think of was to help the old king regain the throne from his son.
If it were before, he Xuan Yan would think it was right, but now that he has rich experience, he also understands that the matter of the throne cannot be judged simply by right or wrong.
From a causal perspective, the old king was replaced because of his lack of ability.
As a result, the Wuji Kingdom was in chaos and bandits were rampant.
If it were for the sake of peace and prosperity for the country and the people, it would be appropriate for him, the king, to abdicate the throne in favor of a worthy person, let alone give up the throne to his son.
The civil and military officials did not collectively stand up to oppose it. I'm afraid they all had the same calculation. They all believed that the old king was not talented enough and it was time to replace him.
In this case, how to deal with this matter?
"Amitabha, Wukong, please go to the Imperial Preceptor's house to find out whether the Imperial Preceptor is good or evil, and what his intentions are."
Sun Houhou laughed and said, "Master, how easy is it to distinguish between good and evil? A very evil person can also be a very kind person."
"I think of Li Er of the Li family dynasty in your hometown. He killed his brother and imprisoned his father to become emperor. As a result, after many years, most people in the world regarded him as a wise and heroic ruler."
"Also, let's talk about the emperor who banned Buddhism when you came. I heard that when he was young, he worked hard to govern, and when he got old, he only doted on his concubine, leaving the country to others, but he still dominated the throne and never let go."
"In the end, the army mutinied and the world was in chaos, forcing him to flee the royal city."
