Chapter 596 The dark hand

"The wife of the Bull Demon King is really pretty."

Lin Dong touched his nose and subconsciously compared Princess Iron Fan with Lonely Moon and Fairy Hanxiang.

She was wearing a green skirt, with neat long hair falling to her waist, a face like a peach, and a hint of murderous intent in her eyes. In addition, she had a faint yet unattainable temperament. To some extent, it did arouse Lin Dong's interest.

However, he quickly turned his face to the side and met the monsters and goblins in the hall one by one. He also chatted with the Bull Demon King and the Great Sage Tongfeng.

The three of them started talking, and when it came to a key point, the Bull Demon King said, "Brother Lin, the Heavenly Court is now very powerful and wants to wipe us out. This king wants to emulate the three ancient demons of Lion Camel Ridge and establish a large organization. Although the Lion Demon and Peng Demon have extraordinary magical powers, the demon country they founded is a small family after all, covering only a small area. What this king wants to do is to emulate the ancient Heavenly Court and Emperor Dijun to establish a ancestral home for all demons, and create eternal peace for the demons of future generations."

"Why do the immortals enslave us, instead of us enslaving the immortals? Why do the monks catch monsters and make elixirs, instead of us using them as medicine? Humans can grow by eating everything, so why can't monsters eat humans?"

The more he spoke, the more indignant he became.

The Great Sage Tongfeng applauded and couldn't help but exclaimed: "As expected of our eldest brother, the Great Sage Pingtian, the leader of the Seven Great Sages, is really very courageous."

However, Lin Dong sneered in his heart: "The Queen of Nuwa, who best represents the demon race, doesn't care about worldly affairs. The three great saints all achieved enlightenment in human form, and all founded their own sects on the basis of humanity. Before the Conferred Gods Tribulation, humanity once overshadowed the way of heaven, and the Human King ruled the three realms. You keep talking about the ancient heaven, but you're painting a picture a little too big."

Bull Demon King might really have such a great ideal, but the problem is that in Lin Dong's opinion it is too ridiculous.

To put it bluntly, it is always those few people who truly decide the fate of the majority of people.

If there hadn't been a nuclear strike, there would have been no talk of 100 million people dying in battle.

Even the slogan of one billion people dying in battle can be shouted out by that group of ambitious people and war criminals.

Only true indiscriminate death hanging over their heads will make them afraid.

From ancient times to modern times, from mythology to reality, exploitation and oppression are the eternal themes.

……

"I just find it fucking funny when you say that."

This is the true reflection of Lin Dong’s inner thoughts.

Of course, other monsters don't think so.

At least what Bull Demon King said did arouse the response of many demons.

"I have established the Ten Thousand Demons Ancestral Court, and I need a lot of helpers. As the saying goes, every country has a prime minister. In the ancient heaven, the prime minister was a master, and Emperor Jun also worshipped Kunpeng as a demon master. I wonder if Brother Lin is interested in taking on such a position?"

The Bull Demon King's true intentions were finally revealed.

In fact, the meaning of his prelude was nothing more than this. He not only wanted to pull Lin Dong into his camp, but also wanted to recruit him as his subordinate.

Of course, he was nominally given a so-called deputy position.

"Prime Minister, Demon Master?"

Lin Dong whispered softly, his tone playful.

He thought for a moment and said with a half-smile: "I heard that the king was the leader of the Seven Great Saints in his early years, so I think he must have many talented people under him. As for the position of demon master, any one of the Seven Great Saints, such as the Great Saint Tongfeng, is more qualified than me."

"This……"

Bull Demon King thought that Lin Dong would refuse, but he didn't expect that the other party would refuse so decisively.

Although the Bull Demon King also had the idea of ​​trying to get something for nothing.

But rejecting him in front of a group of demons, especially since Lin Dong had just received a reward from the Bull Demon King not long ago, made the Bull Demon King extremely embarrassed and unable to hold his face.

You know, as the hostess, Princess Iron Fan bowed her head in admiration before taking the wind seed bag from Lin Dong.

Demons that are not close friends will not perform such etiquette.

Lin Dong's ruthless rejection made Niu Mo feel that he had given his true love to the wrong person.

It was ridiculous for the Bull Demon King to try to tie Lin Dong down with friendship, kindness and the like.

Because in Lin Dong's opinion, since I saved someone, it's only right that you repay me.

Whether you offer me treasures or treat me with courtesy, it is itself a form of transaction.

Are you trying to turn it into a favor to PUA me?
Brother, I came from the future - my fucking name is, the God of Destruction!
You are a god who destroys all the rules, whether explicit or implicit. Don't try to show off your skills in front of Guan Gong.

The monsters in the ancient times are simple and honest, is it possible that they can be deceived?
But you're talking to me about this?

Lin Dong didn't even roll his eyes, which was already a great courtesy to the Bull Demon King.

"Cough cough."

Seeing the awkward situation, Ventilation Master tried to smooth things over and started to complain.

"Brother, you don't know."

This monkey monster tried to show off as soon as he arrived, perhaps he forgot that the Bull Demon King called Lin Dong "Brother Lin".

"We became sworn brothers and helped each other back then, but we each had our own fates. This is the first time I've been able to contact Brother Niu in nearly five hundred years since the battle with my seventh brother, the Monkey King, at the Flower-Fruit Mountain."

As Ventilation Great Sage explained, Lin Dong gradually understood.

Why was there no one coming to rescue Master Wukong when he was trapped under the Five Elements Mountain?
The Seven Great Sages claim to be brothers in arms.

Among them, the Bull Demon King of Pingtian is mainly deeply involved with the Bon religion of the Jisai Kingdom.

Through the relationship with the Wansui Fox King, the Bull Demon King got in touch with the Wansheng Old Dragon King of the Bibotan in Luanshi Mountain.

In Bon religion or Blood religion (Blood religion is the name given to Bon religion by the Jisai Kingdom), the supreme deity of Western Power King Bodhisattva was established.

The condition is to participate in the fight for the throne among the nine sons of the Ghost Mother.

He had to help the Nine-Headed Insect to take power and kill the other sons of the Ghost Mother, and he was completely unable to spare the time.

There is even the shadow of the Blood River Ancestor here.

Of course, it didn't get done in the end, but the effect wasn't too bad.

Currently, the Jisai Kingdom is in a stalemate. The Ghost Mother finally stepped forward to calm the dispute, and the country fell into an eerie calm.

And it is because of this that the Nine-Headed Insect has the opportunity to help the Bull Demon King.

This is what happened with the Bull Demon King.

In addition, the second of the Seven Great Sages, the Jiao Demon King, was also stuck in a quagmire, fighting with the Dragon Palace and Ksitigarbha Buddha of the Dark Buddha Land, and he couldn't extricate himself at all.

The third demon king Peng was mysterious and his whereabouts were unknown.

This Demon King Peng is not the same as the golden-winged Peng in Lion Camel Ridge. It is estimated that few people in the Three Realms know his specific origin.

Lin Dong counted with his fingers and was shocked to find that this Peng Demon King was vaguely hostile to him, but he could not figure out the details.

The fourth of the Seven Great Sages, the Lion King, was suppressed under the Green Mountain of the Queen Mother of the West.

Lao Wu, the Great Sage of Tongfeng, has always wanted to rescue him, but has never found a chance.

As for the sixth of the Seven Great Sages, King Yu Monkey is doing the best, and it can even be said that he is doing better than the Bull Demon King, the Great Sage Pingtian.

Why?

It turns out that this King Yu Monkey was taken in as a boy by the Buddha Maitreya, and that time was before Master Wukong was imprisoned in the Five Elements Mountain.

Today, King Yuxiong has completely cut off his past.

He called himself the Yellow-browed Buddha, opened up Xiaoling Mountain, and intimidated the surrounding areas.

"The Yellow-browed Old Demon is actually the sixth of the Seven Great Saints?"

It was the first time that Lin Dong heard such a secret. He counted with his fingers and gradually understood it.

The Yu macaque is essentially like a golden monkey, but is larger than a macaque, with red eyes and a long tail.

"Classic of Mountains and Seas·Nanshan Jing·Nancier Jing" says: There is a beast, its shape is like a human but with a pig's mane. It lives in caves and hibernates in winter. Its name is Huali. Its sound is like chopping wood. When it is seen, it means there is a big disaster.

This thing is the earliest Yu macaque, but with the passage of time, generation after generation it evolved into the appearance of the later golden monkey.

Lin Dong remembered that in the first world, he had a confrontation with Hua La who escaped from the underworld.

"My brother has no flesh on his face, likes to have unkempt hair, and wears a thin gold hoop. He likes to have bare eyes, and has two yellow eyebrows standing upside down. He has a nose with a big nose and a square mouth. He has sharp teeth and dresses like a general. He likes to wear a pair of buckled chain mail, a raw silk tassel belt, a pair of black shoes, and a mace as a weapon. He looks like an animal, but not as good as an animal. He looks like a human but looks like a human."

Ventilation Great Sage and Lin Dong introduced.

Yellow-browed monster?
Lin Dong finally figured it out.

The Buddha once said: Monkeys resemble human forms, but they are not included in human names. They resemble naked insects, but they do not live in national boundaries. They resemble walking beasts, but they are not subject to the control of the unicorn. They resemble flying birds, but they are not subject to the control of the phoenix.

The Yellow-browed Monster looks like a monkey with fur transformed into skin, doesn't he?

"Did he really cut off the cause and effect of the past?"

Lin Dong asked the Great Sage of Ventilation with a smile.

"Ugh."

The Great Sage Tongfeng said dejectedly, "That evil demon has now disowned us. He climbed up the ladder and became a disciple of the old Buddha Maitreya. Now he has descended to the mortal world to become a king, calling himself the Yellow Eyebrowed Buddha. He has completely severed all ties with us. We cannot rely on such a thing, so my elder brother said that if he wants to bring eternal peace, he will invite you to be the demon master. This is a first-class job. Brother Lin, you should think about it carefully."

The Great Sage Tongfeng had said so much that he did not hesitate to expose his own shame. If Lin Dong did not understand the situation at this moment, he would probably offend others completely.

His eyes flickered, and he said immediately, "Okay! I will definitely consider the matter of the demon master carefully."

Considering means not agreeing, and he only said this out of consideration for the other party's face. The Bull Demon King's face was so gloomy that water could drip out of it, and he was not as enthusiastic about Lin Dong as before.

However, the Bull Demon King was still quite polite and said, "There are countless rooms in my Moyun Cave. Brother Lin, why don't you find a room to stay in first? Don't go out casually. The siege of the Heavenly Court has been severe in recent days, and we often block various experts. When our troops gather together, we will all charge into the Heavenly Court together."

"Very good."

Lin Dong nodded, and planned to take a good rest and think about the follow-up plan.

Immediately, Bull Demon King called Red Boy and led Lin Dong to his residence.

……

"Brother Lin, can't you and my father be good friends?"

Red Boy turned his head and asked, his feet stepping on the river bank, leaving a unclear footprint.

This is a method of moving space within the cave. The courtyard that Bull Demon King arranged for Lin Dong is backed by mountains and surrounded by water.

The yard is deeply sunken in a corner of the Jilei Mountain valley, with a silvery river in front of it, which is quite elegant and interesting.

Red Boy stepped on the river bank, splashing a few silver water droplets.

Lin Dong suddenly stopped and said, "Children should not ask about adults' affairs."

"Oh."

Red Boy replied in a muffled voice.

After thinking for a while, Red Boy shook his head and said, "Brother Lin, can you please not be an enemy of my father?"

"Why do you think so?"

Lin Dong’s brows knitted together.

"Nothing, just a feeling."

Red Boy said gloomily.

"Hahaha."

Lin Dong used laughter to hide his inner unhappiness. This child was truly innocent. What he said sounded nonsensical, but in fact it was the best explanation of the relationship between Bull Demon King and Lin Dong.

It would be fine if the Bull Demon King could not become powerful, but if he really became the so-called demon emperor, there would definitely be a conflict of interest between him and Lin Dong.

Which great emperor’s achievements were achieved without endless killing and conquest?

The force created by Lin Dong is the Wanren Demon Palace in Wuliang Mountain.

If you count the Golden Horn and Silver Horn of Pingding Mountain and the Yellow Robe Monster of Wanzi Mountain, it will be a huge force that is no less powerful than the Lion Camel Ridge.

How can I allow others to sleep peacefully beside my bed?

Although the probability of Bull Demon King overthrowing the Heavenly Palace and establishing the ancestral palace of all demons is very small, such a hidden danger does exist.

Of course, it’s a little too early to say this now.

"No, Red Boy. It's already difficult for us demons to survive, so we all need to work together."

Lin Dong explained.

"Okay, Brother Lin, I'll take you here."

Red Boy turned around and said something, then he trotted all the way into the dark forest in the west and quickly disappeared from Lin Dong's sight.

The silvery river seemed to be paved with a layer of star rocks that were broken into pieces all over the sky.

The ripples tangled into a spider web shape in the moonlight, and the waves rolled slightly, forming a charming scenery.

Lin Dong dipped his hand into the cold water, scooped up a handful, took a sip, and the river water was surprisingly sweet.

"Not bad."

he whispered.

Suddenly.

Lin Dong raised his eyebrows and moved his ears slightly. He actually heard the message secretly conveyed by Void Yaksha.

"My Lord, Tang Sanzang has already passed Wuliang Mountain and is heading to Jilei Mountain with the legendary Master Wukong."

A Void Yaksha reported.

When Lin Dong was leaving, he set a rule before he set out: if Tang Xuanzang wanted to borrow the road, no one could stop him for any reason. Anyone who violated the rule would be executed without mercy.

Maybe it was because Huanxin and others spread the news everywhere.

In short, Lingshan's plan to travel west is now obviously not going to work. Even the corpse demon on Baihu Ridge, Madam Bai Gu, was not fooled and curled up in the cave without coming out.

In this situation, who would want to eat Tang Monk’s flesh?

If any of Lin's subordinates were to engage in stupid monster behavior and offend Tang Xuanzang, the Tathagata of Lingshan might really want to destroy Wuliangshan as the culprit.

By then, the Wuliang Mountain checkpoint alone could open up dozens of branches of tribulations, totaling all eighty-one tribulations. Lin Dong would definitely not do such a thing, so he gave strict orders to his subordinates and asked Master Gu Yue and others to keep a close eye on the monsters.

"Okay, got it."

Lin Dong replied, but didn’t take it seriously.

However, the Void Yaksha in the dark did not leave.

"Why is there something else?"

Lin Dong asked.

"Your Majesty, there are three other things. First, right after Tang Xuanzang left, the Tang emperor sent troops and immortal warriors to borrow the road. The emperor first sent a vanguard officer named Yuchi to pay homage to the mountain. Lady Gu Yue can't make up her mind, so please go back as soon as possible, or there may be changes."

"Secondly, the leader of the Dongxuan Sect under the Zhenwu Great Emperor, the Thunder Department Marshal Xin Zhenjun, has sent a letter saying that the Zhenwu Great Emperor's birthday will be coming soon, and he invites you to the Zhenwu Palace for a gathering."

"Third, Empress Hanxiang said that you once promised her something, and she hopes you can fulfill it as soon as possible and return home earlier."

Void Yaksha spread the rumor again.

"This……"

Lin Dong felt a headache when he heard this. He didn't expect that so many things had already piled up on Wuliang Mountain before he even started traveling outside.

Hanxiang just wants me to save the Queen Mother Jiu Tian Su Nu.

However, the peak level of the Nine Heavens Su Nu celestial being's cultivation had been suppressed, so if he went there now, it would probably be a waste of time.

Of course, the main thing is to comfort Hanxiang.

After all, I had made a promise to the other party before.

As the saying goes, there is no good banquet. As the saying goes, there is no good banquet. As the Great Emperor Zhenwu said, I went to visit him not long ago, but was turned away.

It’s definitely not a good thing to find him now.

As for Emperor Li Shimin's request to borrow the country's territory to destroy the State of Guo?

It doesn't make sense. Whether there is a conflict of interest between Wuliang Mountain and the Tang Emperor of Jambu Continent, there is no reason for him to attack the mountain.

This "borrowing the road" should be just a formal request for permission to pass through.

Besides, if he were the Emperor of Tang, he would appoint himself a high-ranking official, such as a prince, and become a sworn brother.

It's not impossible to borrow a passage or something.

"Okay, I know."

Lin Dong quickly thought about it and waved his hand, letting the Void Yaksha retreat.

He was about to go into the house by the creek to practice, but he turned around and suddenly said, "Come out!" His voice sounded a bit fierce.

A pale green candlelight floated out, and a pair of pretty white snow-white feet came into view.

"Young lady, coming here uninvited is not a good thing, is it?"

Lin Dong said coldly.

The girl holding a light green candle lantern walked gracefully with lotus steps. She had a pointed chin and a pitiful face.

"Your Majesty..."

The girl’s watery eyes timidly glanced at Lin Dong, then she lowered her head again. One could even see the hair behind her slender neck. She paused and said tenderly, “Hail, Your Majesty. I have come to serve you in bed at the order of my lord.”

"Is there such a good thing?"

Lin Dong calculated with his fingers and found that this was indeed what happened.

He didn't know why, even the Bodhisattva of Joy shouldn't have aroused his desire, but when he saw this tender, lamb-like little girl, his appetite was aroused for no reason, and he even wanted to pry her apart, crush her, and knead her into pieces.

"Then come on!"

Lin Dong stretched out his big hand, lifted the girl up by the slender neck and threw her into the room.

This will surely be a long and violent conquest.
