No taboos in the world

Chapter 522: Encountering obstacles in Chechi Kingdom, the dark horse captures Tang Monk

"Your Majesty, here comes the little crocodile."

Hong Chen put away the Xuanling Beiyin Banner and shook it lightly. The little crocodile on the banner flew out of the palace and fell into the pond.

The crocodile is the Yangtze alligator. The crocodile dragon has a dragon head and a crocodile body.

Hong Chen said: "Let it stay in the pool for a few hundred years, and then let your uncle take it back."

"Yes." Ao Tingxin agreed, paused and asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, why do you have to keep him?"

Hong Chen smiled, "In fact, it doesn't matter whether I keep him or not. What's important is that since I have taken action, I can't let him go easily. He is guilty and should be punished. But according to the fate of other monsters, his crime does not deserve death, so imprisonment in the pool is the best arrangement."

Ao Tingxin nodded.

After a while, she glanced at Hong Chen and said carefully: "But I think His Majesty originally wanted to kill him."

Hong Chen did not refute, but nodded and said: "Yes, after all, he really eats people. As a human, and as a god worshipped by countless humans, I have many reasons to kill him. But at the same time, there are also many reasons why I cannot kill him, or why I cannot kill him now."

Ao Tingxin fell silent, frowning and thinking carefully.

After a long while, she bit her thin lips and said, "Your Majesty, I don't understand."

Hong Chen looked far away and said softly, "If you want to kill him, then I will kill all the monsters that have eaten humans on the way to the west."

"That day will come." The third voice sounded, and Cai Yan walked out slowly and said, "I believe in your majesty. There will definitely be a day when your majesty will seek justice for all the humans who were devoured by monsters."

Her tone and expression were extremely firm, and she obviously had great confidence in Hong Chen.

However, when it comes to the word "fairness" in the Three Realms, it is somewhat taken for granted.

But the pursuit of justice is an obvious characteristic that distinguishes humans from other races. This is not wrong; it is the legacy of human civilization.

Hong Chen laughed and said, "Don't be so sad. Those dead humans will be treated well in the underworld. After reincarnation, they will have a better life."

The journey to the West is the prerequisite for the rise of Buddhism, and is also the key to sorting out the aura of the great catastrophe in the three realms and achieving a peaceful transition.

The mortals who died on the journey to the West are owed by all living beings in the Three Realms, and they deserve a generous reward in reincarnation.

The two girls bowed together and said, "Your Majesty, be merciful."

Hong Chen sneered.

This is a last resort of mercy.

If possible, who wouldn't want to live well in this life instead of having to live another life after death?
Soon, three military advisors and five generals also gathered in the imperial palace.

"I will see you, Your Majesty!"

"Get up. I have called you all here today to tell you something important. This matter needs to be kept strictly confidential. You must not mention it to anyone else except those present."

"Your subjects shall obey the Emperor's orders!"

This meeting lasted for three days.

Three days later, the ministers dispersed and the imperial palace returned to its former tranquility.

soon.

The Chechi Kingdom worshipped Taoism and destroyed Buddhism, and encountered three monsters: a tiger, a deer and a sheep.

After a competition between Wukong and the three demons, the three demons were defeated. They knelt on the ground and shouted, and invited a big demon with a human body and a horse head and a demonic aura that reached the sky.

Wukong stared with his monkey eyes: "How strange! How strange! Why does the breath of this great demon sound so familiar to me?"

Hearing this, Tang Seng, who was so frightened that his face turned pale, loosened his sword finger and said, "Wukong, do you know it?"

"It seems like I know him, but it also seems like I don't know him."

Wukong shook his head in confusion and shouted, "Hey, horse, where are you from? Do you know me, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven?!"

The big black horse naturally knew him. It once personally carried Hong Chen to the Five Fingers Mountain to visit the trapped Sun Wukong. When Hong Chen was sitting on the ground and eating and drinking with Sun Wukong, it was standing beside them and eating grass!
It’s a pity that the master has instructed that these words cannot be said and this relationship cannot be acknowledged.

It is now a big demon horse that doesn't recognize any relatives.

An umbrella with flowing purple air opened up, instantly covering the sky and dimming the sun and moon.

"Not good!" Wukong shouted and turned to run towards Tang Seng.

Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing also became alert, and the three of them surrounded Tang Seng.

At this moment, they heard a bell ringing. The three of them were all shocked, and confusion appeared in their eyes for a moment.

Sun Wukong has the highest level of cultivation and breaks free the fastest.

But after he woke up, he just saw a huge bronze bell covering Tang Seng, and then it was carrying Tang Seng and flying into the hands of the big black horse.

"Hey! How brave!"

Sun Wukong shouted loudly, and immediately flew into the air. He took out the golden cudgel from his ear, raised it and started hitting with a tremendous force!
The big black horse had a blank expression on his face, and the purple umbrella on his head was spinning, with purple air hanging from the edge of the umbrella like fairy mist.

The golden cudgel fell on his head, and when it hit the purple air it was as if it had hit the arm of King Kong. Not only did it fail to do anything, but it also caused pain in Sun Wukong's hands.

During this delay, the purple umbrella shone brightly, enveloping the black horse and taking the tiger, deer and sheep with it as they flew away. The speed was so fast that even Sun Wukong riding his somersault cloud could not catch up. In the blink of an eye, the sun reappeared in the sky, and the surroundings were bright.

When Sun Wukong came back, Zhu Bajie asked hurriedly, "Brother Monkey, did you catch up with the horse monster?"

"No, no! I don't know what kind of treasure the horse demon's umbrella is, but it's so powerful that I hit it with my stick and it didn't even shake. And the speed is also amazing. It's really amazing!"

Sha Monk: "It can't even catch up with the eldest brother's somersault cloud. How can that horse demon have such a powerful treasure?"

Zhu Bajie snorted twice and said, "In my opinion, that treasure is not an ordinary item. I'm afraid it has surpassed the acquired level. It is very likely to be the legendary innate spiritual treasure."

"Innate Spiritual Treasure?"

Sun Wukong blinked his golden eyes, curious: "What is the innate spiritual treasure?"

Zhu Bajie immediately put his hands on his hips and puffed out his chest: "Brother Monkey, in terms of strength, I am indeed not as good as you, but in terms of knowledge, you are much worse than me."

Upon hearing this, Sha Wujing lowered his eyes and deliberately made himself invisible.

Sun Wukong grabbed Zhu Bajie's ear and twisted it twice, saying, "You idiot! If you want to make fun of me, that's fine, but now that your master has been captured by a monster, how can you still be in the mood to waste time with me? Come on, tell me!"

Zhu Bajie cried out in pain a few times and told the truth.

After listening to it, Sun Wukong finally understood the difference between the innate and acquired magic weapons.

He turned the golden cudgel around, held it horizontally in front of him, and asked, "Brother, do you think that my Ruyi Golden Cudgel is an innate spiritual treasure?"

Zhu Bajie, however, didn't remember the beating and sneered, "Brother Monkey, stop dreaming. Your Ruyi Jingu Bang was once a stator used by the human emperor Yu to measure the water level when he was controlling floods. It was known as the Dinghai Shenzhen. At that time, it wasn't even a weapon. Later, it absorbed the merits of the human emperor Yu in governing the world, and became an acquired merit treasure. It is not in the category of innate treasures!"

Sun Wukong was puzzled: "Then I, Sun Wukong, swept through the 100,000 heavenly soldiers and thousands of gods in the heaven with the Ruyi Jingu Bang, and they were all vulnerable. Many of them even had their weapons broken by me. Don't they have any innate spiritual treasures?"

"Oh my Monkey King! Do you think that innate spiritual treasures are the cabbages grown by the old farmer in the mortal world? There are only a limited number of innate spiritual treasures, and there are very few people who possess them. Moreover, most of them are powerful beings in the Three Realms who have become famous in ancient times, like the Great Immortal Zhenyuan of Wuzhuang Temple. How can you and I easily encounter them? Besides, the acquired merit treasure is not bad either. In a fight, it is not weaker than the general innate spiritual treasure, and can compete with the top-grade innate treasure."

"So, the treasure umbrella in the horse demon's hand is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure?"

"That's impossible. If it is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, once it appears, it will be able to make living beings feel something and be attracted by the power of the great way contained in the spiritual treasure. I think the purple cloud umbrella should be an extremely powerful top-grade innate spiritual treasure!"

Sun Wukong scratched his ears and cheeks, jumped up and down, and turned left and right.

After a while, he said, "According to what Junior Brother said, the one who can possess such a treasure must be a top-notch power in the Three Realms, and the horse monster must be someone with a background. I just don't know which immortal didn't take good care of his mount and pet and let him go to the lower world to cause trouble!"

After traveling westward for so long, even though Wukong was dull, he finally saw some things clearly.

There was a strong sense that these disasters that happened one after another were arranged.

However, Sun Wukong still didn't know what the purpose of these people's arrangements was at this time, and he also didn't know whether those people were really kind-hearted or just careless.

After all, the master must be saved, and the journey to the West must be started.

"Fool, you said you are well-informed, so guess where that horse demon came from?"

Zhu Bajie shook his head: "I don't know. I've never seen that top-grade innate spiritual treasure, so I don't know where to start guessing. But when it comes to horses, shouldn't you be more familiar with them than me?" As he spoke, he moved his feet and hid behind Sha Wujing, who was pretending to be stupid.

As expected, Sun Wukong bared his teeth and chased Zhu Bajie to beat him again.

Finally, Zhu Bajie lay on the ground, panting, and said, "Since we can't guess the origin of the horse monster, why not ask the mountain god or the land god?"

Sun Wukong nodded, stamped his feet, called out the local land, and communicated with it without saying a word.

The land god didn't know where the horse demon came from, but he knew where the horse demon's lair was.

The three disciples rushed to the cave in Mawang Mountain to challenge him.

After a while, the big black horse led the three monsters, the tiger, deer and sheep, out of the cave. There were also more than a hundred thousand monsters all over the mountains and plains shouting together, which was very powerful.

"Hiss, this monster has so many subordinates! Junior Brother Sha, I'll leave the 100,000 little monsters to you!" said Zhu Bajie.

Sha Wujing pointed at himself: Me?

The three of them joined forces to fight against the group of monsters. Although the horse monster was suppressed and had no way to fight back, the three of them could not break the defense of the Purple Cloud Umbrella. What's more, there were 100,000 little monsters gathered in the mountains and forests. In the end, they had to give up.

After putting away their weapons, the three men came to the river to rest for a while, and a mountain god came up with some fruit.

"You are the mountain god, so do you know the origin of the horse monster on the mountain?" asked Sun Wukong.

Upon hearing this, the mountain god immediately trembled, his legs softened, and he knelt down: "Great Sage, please spare my life! Great Sage, please spare my life!"

"Huh? I was just asking you about the horse monster here, why did you let me spare your life?" Sun Wukong narrowed his eyes and threatened, "Could it be that you are going to protect that monster!" As he spoke, he had already placed his golden cudgel on the mountain god's shoulder, pressing him down to the ground, unable to move!

The mountain god hurriedly said, "Grandpa Great Sage, please don't misunderstand me. I have nothing to do with that monster. I just happened to hear about the monster's identity but didn't dare to say more. I hope Grandpa Great Sage will forgive me!"

"Hehe!" Sun Wukong sneered, "You knew his origins but didn't tell me the truth. Aren't you afraid of offending me? If my master was eaten by that monster, even if I send you to hell, it would be hard to forgive you! Why don't you tell me the truth quickly!!"

The mountain god was startled and dared not hide it anymore, so he could only stammer and say, "Great Saint, please allow me to tell you, the monster once told the little monster beside him when he was drunk that he was originally an ordinary horse on earth, and later by chance, he was sold to a powerful man who came down to earth to fight against calamities and became his mount. Later, when the powerful man passed the calamity and returned to heaven, he also took him to heaven. This is an incredible fate!"

Wukong couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He suddenly felt extremely familiar in his heart, but he couldn't grasp the inspiration for a while.

"Stop talking nonsense and tell me who that immortal is!!"

“Yes… yes…” The mountain god’s voice became smaller and smaller, and finally he simply closed his eyes and said smoothly: “It’s the Three Realms Xuanling Emperor!”
