Soul Ferry: My master is Uncle Jiu

Chapter 450: Green Lion Captured
"Father!"

When the prince saw the body of the King of Wuji Kingdom carried back by Ao Lie, he knelt down in front of the corpse and burst into tears.

An Yan didn't care whether the prince was being sincere or fake, he stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, don't be sad, your father can still be saved."

The Crown Prince wiped his tears and said, "Master, please don't lie to me. Most people's souls return to the underworld after the seventh day of death. My father has been dead for three years. How can he be saved?"

Seeing that the prince did not believe him, Xiong Bin said with a hint of pride: "Didn't you hear what my master said before? The Ten Kings of Hell are his sworn brothers. My master said he could save them if he wanted."

"You, the prince, are so long-winded. Just say whether to save him or not."

"Help! Help! Please help, Taoist priest!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince nodded quickly upon hearing this.

"Then I'll go to the underworld." An Yan laughed, "I'll go!"

So, in full view of everyone, An Yan turned around and crawled underground.

This stunned the old temple master, who exclaimed that it was a god from heaven who had descended to earth.

When Sun Wukong and the other two saw this, they just chuckled, as if they were laughing at the fact that they had never seen the world.

An Yan arrived at the gate of hell and stopped a ghost from the underworld, "Take me to see your King Yama."

"Who are you, Master An? I'll take you there right away." The little ghost from the underworld wanted to ask who was so bold as to pat his shoulder, but it turned out to be this old man.

The little ghosts would never dare to forget the sight of the Ten Kings of Hell becoming sworn brothers.

He immediately started to please.

"Lead the way." An Yan said lightly.

"Master Yama, Master An is here to see you!"

Outside the Senluo Palace, the little ghost asked for instructions.

Upon hearing this, King Yama, who was sitting on the throne, quickly stood up and came out with Judge Cui to greet them.

Seeing An Yan outside the hall, King Yama gave him a bear hug and said, "Haha, why did I say I heard a magpie calling today? It turns out that my brother is here to visit me."

"Brother, aren't you going west? Why do you have time to come and see me today?"

After some greetings, King Yama asked in confusion.

He knew that this person was not really here to see him, and would not come for no reason.

"The story is this. On my way west, I passed by the Kingdom of Black Chicken and found that the king of the Kingdom of Black Chicken had been killed by a demon and pushed into a well and drowned."

"Fortunately, the Well Dragon King is keeping the body, so I came here to ask how long the King of the Black Chicken Kingdom will live."

King Yan Luo understood everything, but he was happy to help An Yan when he asked for help. How could he get closer to her otherwise?

This virtuous brother of mine has caused a lot of trouble recently, and Buddhism and Taoism almost went to war because of him.

So he immediately said to Judge Cui standing beside him, "Check to see if the King of the Black Chicken Kingdom still has life left."

"I'll check right away."

Cui Yu did not dare to hesitate, and hurried back to the main hall to take out the Book of Life and Death and began to look through it in front of An Yan.

"Found it, the king of the Black Chicken Kingdom. He died three years ago after accidentally falling into the water. He had ten years left to live." Cui Yu said quickly.

An Yan asked: "Where is his ghost now? I will take him back to the world of the living."

"In the City of the Dead!" Cui Yu replied.

King Yama waved his hand and laughed, "Why do you need to go and look for this little thing yourself? It's been a long time since we last got together. I'll go and call the other Yamas."

"Judge Cui, I'll leave it to you to find the king of the Black Chicken Kingdom. Bring him here if you find him."

"Okay, sir, I'll do it right away."

Cui Yu did not dare to complain and hurried to the City of the Dead to rescue the people.

When the King of the Black Chicken Kingdom was brought in, he was shocked beyond words when he saw that a Taoist priest like An Yan could be on equal footing with the Ten Kings of Hell and call them brothers.

He felt even more in awe of An Yan. At the same time, he thought that if he could successfully return to life this time, he would build a temple for the Taoist priest and make a golden statue to worship him, and burn incense to him day and night.

Cui Yu was also very capable. When he brought people over, the banquet was already over and he did not disturb An Yan and the others' dinner.

An Yan's face flushed from drinking, and he clasped his fists and said, "Brothers, since the person has been found, I will take him back first."

"It's as it should be. You can have a drink anytime. Don't let this ruin your brother's important event."

The Ten Kings of Hell escorted him all the way out of the gates of hell, which was a great honor to him.

An Yan bid farewell to the Ten Kings of Hell and left with the King of Wuji Kingdom.

When we returned to the Taoist temple, we heard the crowing of cocks.

The prince, who had been waiting for most of the night, saw An Yan coming back and hurriedly stepped forward to ask: "Master, my father..."

"I will cast a spell right now to bring your father back to life."

Sun Wukong and the others, who were also awake, were watching An Yan's operations.

An Yan flipped his palm and a ball of faint light appeared on his hand. This was the soul of the King of Wuji Kingdom.

Immediately afterwards, An Yan sent his soul towards the body of the King of Wuji Kingdom.

As the soul entered the body, the heart, which had originally stopped beating, began beating again, and the cooled blood began to flow again.

In order to speed up the integration of soul and body, An Yan used another magical power to help him.

The King of the Black Chicken Kingdom slowly opened his eyes, took in the surrounding scene, and asked with a hint of bewilderment: "Is the widower back?"

"Father!"

"I am an unfilial son. I have not recognized the fake king in three years!"

The prince fell in front of the king of Wuji Kingdom and pleaded guilty.

"My dear child, that fake king has boundless magical power. How can you recognize him with your mortal eyes?"

"Hurry up and join me in thanking the Taoist priest for saving my life!"

The King of Wuji Kingdom had no intention of blaming the prince. If he had to blame anyone, it was only himself who failed to judge people and let a wolf into the house.

Afterwards, supported by the prince, the King of Wuji knelt down to express his gratitude.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to do this. If you really want to thank me, please do not implicate other innocent Taoists because of that evil Taoist." An Yan hurriedly helped the King of Wuji Kingdom up.

The King of Wuji saw that An Yan did not make excessive demands for saving him, and was still thinking about his disciples. He felt that he was a real immortal, and said quickly: "I guess that the fake king must be a monster, but he disguised himself as Quanzhen to conceal his identity."

"I also ask the Taoist priest to lend a helping hand to me, eradicate the evildoers, and restore peace to my Black Chicken Country."

An Yan was waiting for this sentence. He said, "It is my duty. Tomorrow when the court is in session, we will go together to meet the fake king."

"it is good!"

The time for the morning court session was approaching, so everyone packed up and left the Taoist temple.

The old abbot came with two boys to see him off.

The group came straight to the gate of the imperial palace. The civil and military officials who came for the morning court were shocked to see His Majesty, the Crown Prince, the Taoist priests, and the monsters coming from outside the palace.

The prime minister of the court hurried forward and asked, "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"

"It seems that you still recognize me as His Majesty. Come, follow me into the palace to meet the fake king." When the King of Wuji Kingdom said this, the prime minister and other officials of all ranks were stunned.

What, what on earth happened?

Sensing that something big was about to happen, all the civil and military officials hurriedly followed His Majesty into the hall.

At this time, the fake king was sitting on the dragon throne, enjoying the life of an emperor on earth.

As soon as he entered the hall, Sun Wukong used his flaming eyes and golden pupils, but found that his flaming eyes and golden pupils could not see through the fake king's true face. Under the fake king's surprised and angry eyes, he said, "Tell me, what kind of monster are you? Even my flaming eyes and golden pupils can't see through you."

The King of Wuji heard this and said angrily, "You monster! Three years ago, you pretended to be a Quanzhen Taoist priest to deceive me and pushed me into the well to take my place."

"You didn't expect me to come back alive!"

"Master, please help capture this monster!"

The King of Wuji Kingdom bowed to An Yan who was standing beside him.

The civil and military officials were unable to determine the truth or falsehood for a moment and could only watch it all happen.

They were dumbfounded at this moment. Which of the two Majesties was real and which one was fake?
An Yan nodded, stepped forward and shouted: "Monster, why don't you show your true form quickly!"

The fake king knew that he could not hide the truth any longer today, but at the same time he was confused. Shouldn't it be Tang Seng and his disciples who brought people to expose him?
Why is it that it was a Taoist priest instead? Why is Sun Wukong still with him?
"Hmph! You Taoist priest, you are so rude. We are of the same origin, why are you so anxious to hurt me? I have no grudges against you in the past or in the present, so why are you trying to ruin my good deeds!"

Seeing that Qingshi was still stubborn even when facing death, An Yan sneered and said no more nonsense, waving his hand and saying, "Ao Lie! Xiong Bin! Let me see if you have made any progress recently."

"Master, take good care of him and leave him to us."

Ao Lie and Xiong Bin, who had never had a chance to show off their talents, now had a rare opportunity to do so in front of their master. They immediately drew their weapons and attacked the fake king.

With a gun and a sword, he attacked from both sides without holding back.

The fake king realized he could no longer pretend when he saw this, so he quickly drew his sword and started fighting with Ao Lie and Xiong Bin.

Both of them have the strength of Golden Immortals. Qingshi's cultivation is more advanced, but Ao Lie and Xiong Bin have both practiced the Tiangang and Disha techniques. With the two of them joining forces, the fight is hard to tell for a while.

At this time, all the civil and military officials also learned that the king sitting on the dragon throne was actually a fake king, because the real king did not know kung fu.

When the fake king saw that Sun Wukong and the Taoist were eyeing him covetously, he realized that if he didn't leave, he might really be unable to leave, so he quickly pretended a flaw to lure the two men to attack.

Then he played a little trick and the fake king quickly escaped from the hall.

"Want to run? It's not that easy!"

Ao Lie and Xiong Bin hurriedly chased out and captured the fake king again.

Everyone walked out of the hall to watch, and saw three people in the sky fighting each other, using all kinds of magical powers. The scene was quite shocking.

Sun Wukong, who was itching to do something, shouted, "Ao Lie, Xiong Bin, can you do it? If not, let me help you!"

"He is just a guy who hides his head and shows his tail. Why do you need to take action, Brother Monkey? We will take him down immediately!"

Ao Lie and Xiong Bin didn't want to disappoint their master, so they attacked more fiercely.

The fake king was gradually becoming overwhelmed. If he continued like this, he would really be captured alive by the two men.

So, he used the technique of splitting himself into two bodies and then the technique of transforming himself.

All of a sudden, more than twenty Ao Lies appeared and fought with the real Ao Lie.

Two against two, it's impossible to tell who is who.

Xiong Bin was dumbfounded and shouted, "Big Brother, which one is you?"

"I!"

"I!"

"I'm the!"

"You fake one!"

"You are the fake!"

For a moment, harsh arguments were heard.

Feeling overwhelmed, Xiong Xiong quickly flew back to his master An Yan and said, "Master, what should we do now? Which one is the eldest senior brother?"

The King of Wuji Kingdom also looked at An Yan nervously. If he let the fake king run away, he would probably have to turn a blind eye to it for the rest of his life.

"This monster has some tricks, but not many." An Yan smiled slightly. If he thought he could get away with it like this, he would be looking down on him.

"Look at my Bagua mirror!"

An Yan immediately took out the magic weapon Bagua Mirror, which also has the function of a magic mirror. When the golden light of Bagua fixed all Ao Lie in the sky, the truth and falsehood became clear.

More than twenty Ao Lie turned into bubbles and disappeared one by one. Only the last two were left. One of them revealed his true form in the mirror, a green-haired lion. Oh no, it was a green-haired lion without eggs.

Ao Lie looks like a white dragon.

"Now that the truth is clear, Xiong Bin, go and tie him up for me."

"Yes, Master!"

Xiong Bin quickly took out a bundle of magic ropes and tied up the green-haired lion tightly.

Afterwards, An Yan put away the Bagua mirror. Ao Lie, who had regained his freedom, immediately stepped forward and kicked the green-haired lion twice, "You are such a worthless person, how dare you pretend to be your grandfather!"

"Master, let me kill him with one sword!"

The King of the Black Chicken Kingdom finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that the monster was useless.

Fortunately! Fortunately! This family only stole half!
When Qingshi heard this, he panicked, "You can't kill me! You can't kill me!"

"I am the blue lion that Manjusri Bodhisattva rides on! If you kill me, Bodhisattva will not let you go!"

Upon hearing this, An Yan stepped forward and said with a half-smile, "Since you are the mount of the Bodhisattva, why do you pretend to be a Quanzhen Taoist to harm His Majesty and put the blame on my Taoist sect?"

"If you don't explain the reason, I will kill you to prove the innocence of my sect."

The King of the Black Chicken Kingdom did not expect that this eggless lion was actually the mount of the Buddhist Bodhisattva, which made him shocked and angry.

Considering that the Night Wandering God asked him to ask the holy monk for help, he couldn't help but wonder if this was a self-directed and self-acted show by Buddhism.

Seeing that his master had not shown up, the blue lion had no choice but to tell the truth in order to save his life: "My master once came to this Black Chicken Country in human form, hoping to ferry the King of this country to the Western Paradise to become an Arhat."

"But I never thought that the King of the Black Chicken Country would tie up my master and soak him in water for three days and three nights after being provoked by his words."

"After my master escaped, he reported the matter to the Buddha, and the Buddha ordered me to push him into the well and keep him submerged for three years to avenge my master's three-day flood."

"I coveted worldly pleasures, so I took on his appearance and served as king for three years."

The King of the Black Chicken Kingdom was so angry that he trembled all over when he heard this. "Can a Bodhisattva do whatever he wants?"

"It was your master who offended first, which led to the subsequent flood punishment! How come it is my fault?"

"Does it mean that I must be the Arhat?"

Asking the King of Wuji to give up his position as the supreme leader of a country and become a vegetarian and chant Buddhist scriptures is something that no one, except a fool, would be willing to do.

But given the strong character of Buddhism, how could they care about the wishes of the king of the Black Chicken Kingdom?
It’s like what I give you is a gift to you, and you have to accept it whether you are willing or not!

The king of the Black Chicken Kingdom was trembling with anger!
