Journey to the West: Yinhu Zhenjun

Chapter 189: Visiting the Heavenly Palace to Find Old Friends and Three Questions to Sun Wukong

Huang Tiangong.

Lu Yin finished his work and stood up. The Huangjiao Immortal beside him nodded slightly and said, "Yes, you have already mastered the five thunders."

"Liujia Qimen can be considered a small success."

"The next step is to go to Zhanzhou in the south to do some meritorious deeds."

Lu Yin cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Everything is under the master's command!"

The Great Immortal Huangjiao nodded with a smile, and said seriously: "This time I am descending to the mortal world, there are still important matters to be told, follow me into the hall, so as not to reveal the secret."

Lu Yin naturally agreed.

The two walked into the palace and sat down in order.

Huang Jiao waved his Taoist robe, and invisible magic wrapped around the two of them.

Huang Jiao smiled and said: "Originally, the secrets of heaven are not revealed in Huangtian territory, but it is still just in case."

Lu Yin nodded slowly. Matters involving merit and the master's path were naturally important.

"Listen up, my disciple," Huangjiao Immortal said sternly: "This time you come down to earth to survive the tribulation, firstly to promote my name, Huangtian, and secondly, to save the people of Li."

"I will personally send you down to earth, seal your cultivation in the mortal realm, and divide your soul into three. You will become Huang Tian's will in the mortal world!"

Sure enough, Lu Yin understood clearly in his heart that this was to allow himself to descend to earth and carry out an uprising for Zhang Jiao and the other three.

Lu Yin cupped his hands and said, "I will obey my master's orders!"

Immortal Huangjiao nodded, "Don't worry. In this operation, we are not only protecting you in the dark for our master, but also Nanhua Immortal, Huangdi, and Daozu. We are all watching."

"Even if something went wrong, I would still be willing to beg Dao Ancestor to resurrect you."

Lu Yin forced a smile. This sounded safe, but who were Zhang Jiao's opponents?
The dim but still huge Eastern Han Empire, with all kinds of famous generals and counselors, eh?

Famous general and counselor?

Lu Yin raised his head and asked: "Master, can it be done if I recruit some mortal generals and counselors to go to heaven and serve as officials?"

Immortal Huang Jiao thought for a moment and said, "Except for those few candidates who have been appointed, there should be no problem."

Lu Yin naturally knew who the unofficial candidates were. At the very least, Guan Yu and Marshal Guan had also experienced this time in the lower world.

Lu Yincai smiled and said, "Okay, I will do my best."

Immortal Huangjiao smiled and nodded, "Okay, let's go out for a walk. In a few years, it's time to go to the lower world."

Lu Yin nodded and smiled: "Okay, master, let's take a short rest. I'll go back and give you instructions and then come back."

Huangjiao Daxian smiled and pointed at Lu Yin's waist, and Huangtian Dasheng's waist badge trembled. "I have made some changes. No matter when and where you think, you will fly into this yellow circle." Within the realm of heaven, there is no need to consume mana.”

"Even the underworld can return safely."

Lu Yin was overjoyed, this is a free scroll to return to the city!

"Thank you master."

The great immortal Huangjiao nodded slightly, then closed his eyes and wandered to the sky.

Lu Yin bowed before exiting Huangtian Palace, passing through the boundary membrane and flying towards the Heavenly Court.

Huangtian Great Sage Mansion.

Everyone gathered together and asked with great interest what Lu Yin had been doing during his missing time.

"Brother, you are so happy and free, but we are miserable."

Heifeng pretended to complain, "The Fire Department and Thunder Department have so many tasks, and the demon court in the lower world is in trouble again, we don't have enough manpower!"

"You reminded me!"

Lu Yin smiled and checked within the sea of ​​consciousness. As expected, the Sky-cutting Gourd had completed its merits and was waiting for Lu Yin to open it.

Then he smiled and said: "Don't worry, after I come back from this trip, I might bring a few generals with me."

Duomu listened and asked, "Where are you going, Brother Lu?"

Lu Yin shook his head for a while, "It can't be said, you will know when the time comes."

"When I come back this time, I want to let everyone know. By the way, I have a master."

"Who is it!"

Hu Liu asked with wide eyes, "Could it be that Emperor Zhenwu!"

"No, people like eldest brother must worship the Jade Emperor as their adoptive father, or Laojun as their teacher!"

Black Wind started making nonsense again.

Lu Yin smiled and shook his head, "He is the Central Huangji Huangjiao Immortal, one of the Five Elders of the Five Directions."

"Great Immortal Huangjiao?"

Everyone was stunned. Why did they feel that they had never heard of this person's name?

Lu Yin smiled helplessly and said, "My master likes Qingxiu, so it's normal for him not to understand."

Instead, the female demon frowned and said, "Could it be the great immortal with yellow horns?"

"you recognize?"

Jin Hong was a little surprised.

The female demon nodded, "In my rare memory, this great immortal Huangjiao used to hang out with us. At that time"

In the middle of speaking, it seems that some name that cannot be mentioned will be mentioned. He looked at Lu Yin helplessly, and Lu Yin could only say with a sloppy eye: "It's fine if you can't remember it. There will be opportunities to understand it later."

I thought in my heart, it turned out that the master who said he had studied Huang-Lao's studies had actually been following the Yellow Emperor since ancient times?
"I'll take you there to see it when you have time. My master has a palace complex."

"Palace group!"

Heifeng knew what he was saying: "Is it a palace complex like a mortal emperor?"

Lu Yin nodded slightly, with a smile on his face.

Hei Feng clicked his tongue and said in surprise, "Dear me, I must go and see it when I have time."

"Don't worry, everyone has a chance."

Lu Yin smiled and said, "By the way, did anything major happen during my years of seclusion?"

Duomu on the side sighed and said: "Marshal Tianpeng flirted with Fairy Chang'e after drinking, and almost hit the Bullfighting Palace. He was punished for several crimes. He has already been reincarnated in the lower world."

Lu Yin sighed, guessing that the demon in his heart was stirring again. Now it was a done deal, and Lu Yin had no time to persuade him.

"Forget it, it seems that Marshal Tianpeng has another way to go. Who is leading the Heshui Army that day?"

Lu Yin asked.

Hu Liu said: "It is Master Zhang who has temporarily taken over the position of marshal, and a suitable candidate has not been selected yet."

"There is another one, General Yijulian. He was also demoted to the mortal world because he broke a glass cup at the end of the Peach Club a few days ago."

The general who can roll the curtain should also be the Sha Monk.

Lu Yin nodded, and everyone got along with each other for another day. Early the next morning, Lu Yin gave a notice and went to find Nezha in the lower world.

On top of the cloud, Nezha was still talking about Lu Yin's apprenticeship.

"Lu Yin, is the Great Immortal Huangjiao strong? Is he powerful? What skills did he teach you?"

Lu Yin recalled: "I can't tell whether he is strong or weak. His magic power is unpredictable. I guess he should start as a Daluo Jinxian. As for his skills, you will know when I show you my skills later."

Nezha snorted, "You're still hiding it, right?"

The two of them quarreled for a while before looking down at their feet, "Is this Fuling Mountain?"

Lu Yin nodded, and thought of Zen Master Wuchao with boundless power. People like that could be easily obtained even if they chase the stars and the moon.

While the two were talking like this, the clouds lowered, and from a distance they saw a banshee moving in front of the cave entrance, washing her hands and washing her clothes.

He looked like an immortal, and his temperament was extraordinary, but his eyes were pure. When he saw Lu Yin and Nezha approaching, he was not afraid. Instead, he said: "Where did these two immortals come from, and who are they looking for?"

Lu Yin glanced at it, he saw that this was a rabbit demon with low cultivation level, most golden elixir, full of pure energy, like a fairy descending to earth.

Nezha said: "Let's look for the pig's head in the hole that the lazy people ate!" The rabbit demon's expression changed, and he said nervously: "I picked up this pig's head, and he is now my husband!"

Nezha frowned, but Lu Yin smiled and said, "Second sister Mao, right? There's no need to be so nervous, we and Tianpeng are friends."

"Canopy!"

Sister Mao's eyes changed, and she said helplessly: "Okay, come in with me."

After saying that, he put down his clothes and led Lu Yin into the cave.

The cave is not long and is quite simple. There are only some household tools on the side and a few tables, chairs and benches. They are all new and must have been made by the second sister Mao herself.

After entering the cave, Lu Yin and Nezha frowned at the same time.

All I saw was the canopy, no, Zhu Bajie's face was distorted, and his body was switching back and forth between the pig body and the human body.

Sister Mao whispered: "His condition has become more and more serious recently, and he has very little waking time."

Nezha sighed: "When it comes to inner demons, there is no other way but to rely on oneself."

The second sister Mao looked even worse, her brows filled with worry.

Lu Yin frowned, and with a three-petal lotus mark between his eyebrows, a ray of green light flew over Tianpeng's body. After a few breaths, Tianpeng's body stabilized in human form.

He also slowly opened his eyes.

"Lu Yin, Nezha? Why are you here?"

Zhu Bajie said in shock, his eyes saw that Second Sister Mao on the side became complicated again.

"What? We are all friends, so we can't come to see you?"

Nezha laughed.

Zhu Bajie sighed, "What kind of friends are we talking about now? You two are quite interesting, but the rest of us haven't even looked at me in a hundred years."

Lu Yin frowned and said, "What about Beidou Qiyuan?"

Zhu Bajie shook his head honestly, "My inner demons were disordered, I mistakenly gave birth to a pig fetus, and started killing again, which stained my Taoist heart, and I also stumbled in my practice. If this second sister Mao hadn't taken care of me, I would have ended up in the end of the world."

"Master!"

Sister Mao called out.

Zhu Bajie was stunned for a moment, then nodded, put his arms around Second Sister Mao, and said, "Look, I have a wife now."

Nezha was speechless for a moment when he saw Tianpeng's image changed drastically.

Lu Yin pondered for a few breaths and said, "Tianpeng, is there anything else you want to say?"

Tianpeng's eyes were deep, and he shook his head and nodded again, "There are people in the holy court that we didn't expect, but unfortunately I can't say it."

"Holy Court?"

Nezha blinked, not quite understanding.

Lu Yin asked again: "Can you still be saved?"

Just when Tianpeng was about to shake his head, Lu Yin said again: "Even if it's hopeless, is there any way to control one or two of them so that you don't do random things again?"

Canpeng laughed a few times, scratched his head, and said, "It's no use. My memory is fuzzy. The three flowers on the top have dispersed. In a few years, I'll probably be an ordinary true immortal."

Nezha frowned when he heard this. No one could have imagined that the former Marshal Tianpeng would become like this.

Lu Yin also sighed, took out a green lotus from the sea of ​​consciousness, and said: "This green lotus will stabilize your soul, and at the same time help you resist the inner demons. It should be able to slow down the decline of your cultivation and increase your Sober time.”

Tianpeng opened his mouth with a rather complicated expression. To be honest, it was really hard for him to have such a pig face that could make so many complicated expressions.

"Thanks, brother."

Tianpeng responded in a low voice, took the green lotus, and placed it on the soul. On normal days, he might not look down on this green lotus, which is not as good as an immortal, but now, he is more grateful.

Lu Yin looked at Sister Mao again, threw Nezha's token to her, and said, "If the situation of the canopy is unstable, call Nezha to come over and take a look."

Nezha closed his open mouth again.

Second Sister Mao nodded and carefully held the golden ring in her arms.

Lu Yin said at this time: "Okay, if Tianpeng remembers something again, remember to come to us to have a look and discuss something."

Tianpeng hugged Second Sister Mao and laughed loudly. Lu Yin and Nezha also got up and left at this time.

After the two left, Tianpeng held Sister Mao quietly, with a calm expression, just looking at the green lotus.

After leaving Fuling Mountain, both of them were not very happy, but Tianzun's decree was such that no one could do anything about it. After a pause, when the mood calmed down a little, Nezha said: "Where are we going?"

Lu Yin smiled and said: "Let's go see our next old friend, Sun Wukong."

Nezha raised his eyebrows, this was not an old friend, this was an old rival.

The two people's swaggering appearance was naturally noticed by all the immortals and Buddhas, but one was the second generation of the top immortals and the other was the newly promoted Emperor of Heaven and the famous Huangtian Great Sage.

When these two people come together, they will have no problem even beating up the Tenth Palace King of Hell to vent his anger.

Watching the scenery and the moon all the way, within a month, we arrived near the Five Elements Mountain.

Lu Yinyun swept his gaze above his head, and secretly said, "Good guy."

Liuding and Liujia, the Five Directions Revealed, the Gods Who Travel Day and Night, the Mountain Gods and the Land, all watched carefully.

When the gods saw the two approaching, they all bowed one by one, and then hid in the dark.

Lu Yin Nezha didn't care at all. He lowered his head and appeared in front of Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong was dejected and showed no interest in the people approaching him.

Nezha laughed twice, and Sun Wukong moved his ears.

Lu Yin then asked, "Sun Wukong, why do you learn Taoism?"

Sun Wukong suddenly raised his head, swept his eyes, and said with a smile: "It is indeed you!"

"Quick, quick, quick! Get some food and drink. My old grandson eats copper pills and iron juice every day, and I feel like a bird is coming out of my mouth!"

Lu Yin laughed, and Nezha said: "Yes, you are suitable for eating that stuff!"

Sun Wukong glanced at Nezha, "I don't care what you want, why are you shouting! Go, go, go!"

"you!"

Nezha glared at Sun Wukong, but Sun Wukong looked at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin nodded slightly, and with a wave of his hand, a long blanket fell in front of the three of them, with a variety of fruits, wine, and delicacies from the sea.

Sun Wukong stretched out his hand to take it and opened his mouth to eat it. A group of immortals watched secretly and couldn't help but feel embarrassed. The Buddha and the Jade Emperor wanted this guy to eat copper pills and iron juice.

Lu Yin also sat down and reached out to pick up the fruits to eat. Nezha had no choice but to sit down and hit Sun Wukong on the head one by one with the grapes in his hand.

After a while, Sun Wukong ate and his face was covered with saliva, but he couldn't stop laughing.

The wild laughter made people feel tense and helpless.

Suddenly, Sun Wukong paused. Regardless of the saliva on his face, he looked at Lu Yin and said seriously: "Good brother, please release me, and we will fight together to win the bird position in the Heavenly Palace!"

"puff!"

Nezha spat out the fruit he just put in his mouth and said helplessly: "You monkey, why are you still thinking about this?"

The hearts of all the gods and Buddhas were tense. They were not as relaxed as Lu Yin and Nezha. Instead, they looked at Lu Yin nervously.

Lu Yin smiled, clicked his tongue, and said, "Sun Wukong, why do you learn Taoism?"

Sun Wukong's expression changed. Lu Yin reached out and knocked him on the head three more times. He stood up and said, "I can't let you go. Your crime is serious. I am also the God of Justice, and I can't let prisoners go without permission. You can suffer in peace for the rest of your life." Someone will come to save you."

Sun Wukong was stunned on the spot, unable to regain his consciousness for a long time.

Regarding the issue of saving or not saving, in fact, Lu Yin asked him when he was on the edge of the West Sea, if you don't save yourself, how can I save you even though I have the power to save you?

Regardless, Lu Yin gathered his thoughts and returned to the heaven with Nezha. After giving some instructions, he rushed towards the Yellow Heaven Realm.

　Let’s talk about the second sister Mao. The original text records that it is the second sister egg, but after looking around, some information basically says it is the second sister Mao. The change of shape of the egg is probably an error in the original copying. Of course, this is just my opinion. It can also be regarded as a secondary setting.
