Journey to the West: The Rise of Martial Arts

Chapter 212
Amidst the puzzled faces of the monkey and Zhu Gangli, Ren Qinglian took back the feathers casually, and saw the officers and soldiers walking out of the house with a confused expression as if they had never seen the three of Ren Qinglian.

After a long time, when the group of officers and soldiers left the temple completely, Zhu Gangli couldn't help asking: "Layman Ren, what trick did you use to make them look like a different person?"

"It's nothing, just erased some of their memories!" Ren Qinglian said lightly, in fact, he not only used the Lantian Jade Planting Gu to erase the officers and soldiers' memories of this operation, but also made up a new memory by the way.

Pig just gasped. He could erase someone else's memory too, but the more likely result would be turning that person into an idiot.

But the monkey noticed the existence of the Lantian Jade Gu. He had seen these insects in the Xuanyin Valley of the Aolai Country before, but it was the first time he knew that they had such a magical effect.

……

On a street not far from Zhiyuan Temple, the officers and soldiers who had gradually regained their clarity finally met the three national teachers who had rushed over.

"Why, have you found the whereabouts of Yu Niao!" Immortal Huli asked nervously.

The captain looked ashamed: "I would like to report to my lord, the imperial bird has not been found here. It is the common people who are blinded by it."

"Forget it, big brother, enough things happened tonight, first order to go down and seal the gate of the city, wait until the dawn of tomorrow, and then go look for Yu Niao, and those three damn guys!" Immortal Yang Li suggested.

Great Immortal Lu Li nodded, "Yes, big brother, I'm afraid there will be another fierce battle tomorrow!" Thinking of the strength that the three monkeys showed in the Sanqing Temple, they felt a little uneasy.

"It's a pity that the royal bird is gone, otherwise you can ask the Emperor Xiyue for help!" Immortal Hu Li thought and sighed.

After a long time, the street returned to its usual desolation, but the guards at the city gate were stepped up.

……

In Zhiyuan Temple, Ren Qinglian talked with the two monkeys for a while, then immersed her mind in the dantian world, trying to find out what happened from Boer.

"What, you mean Xiaobai was raised by Emperor Xishan?" Ren Qinglian said in surprise, "Then how did you abduct him here!"

Anyway, it is also a spirit bird raised by the gods in heaven, and I don't know how the parrot spirit tricked it back with sweet words.

Although Boer knew that his master was not a violent one, he didn't dare to brag as brazenly as He Zhu Gangyan, and said honestly: "Actually, Xiaobai is just a bird temporarily enlightened by Emperor Xishan, that's all. When I returned to Mount Hua last time, the Emperor Xiyue returned her freedom."

Ren Qinglian frowned, "Then how did she become the royal bird of the palace?"

Boer sneered and said, "This... I haven't had time to ask Xiaobai yet!"

Ren Qinglian raised her eyebrows, this shameless bird demon was only taking care of teasing girls, so he didn't even bother to inquire about these things, he didn't wait for Boer to ask, but with the help of the power of the Liuhe Desire Lotus Terrace, he began to search for the bird Bai Falcon's memory comes.

"So that's how it is!" After a long time, Ren Qinglian was stunned to figure out the ins and outs of the matter.

Although the Five Sacred Emperors had learned some Taoism before him, they were not from the Taoist sect. After conferring the gods, these people can be said to be a group of people that the Jade Emperor can really command.

Decades ago, Emperor Xiyue was ordered to give some elixir to three monsters near Chechi Kingdom, that is, the later Huli, Luli, and Yangli Immortals. A white falcon he enlightened in Huashan secretly contacted and guided the actions of the Three Demons in Chechi Kingdom.

Those three monsters were originally just first-class monsters, but after getting the elixir, their strength improved by leaps and bounds, and their mana was comparable to that of a master in the middle and late stages of a celestial being. With the addition of a few Taoist techniques taught by Emperor Xiyue, they could call the wind and rain, and soon became famous in Chechi Kingdom. Li Wan has become a national teacher respected by everyone, and he is naturally grateful to Emperor Xishan.

However, Emperor Xiyue specifically told them not to reveal their connection with him in front of others, so the Three Demons could only imitate their benefactors and regard themselves as disciples of Sanqing. This car is remote and desolate in Chi country, otherwise it would not be passed on as a joke.

While the three demons were chattering about Emperor Xiyue, they didn't know that they had already become outcasts in the hands of others.

The white falcon has been living a life of luxury after being enlightened. Although it regained its freedom, it still stayed in the palace and continued to be its royal bird. Unexpectedly, it was seduced by Boer's rhetoric. over here.

Boer didn't notice that Ren Qinglian was casting a spell to capture the gods. Seeing that Ren Qinglian didn't continue to ask, he introduced to the white falcon the various rare and exotic grasses he had collected during this period, "This is a holly fruit tree, the fruit on it Eating it can increase your cultivation for ten years, this is Pittosporum, eating its bark can increase water attribute mana, this is Pyracantha..."

Bai Falcon's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he kept chirping, excited.

Ren Qinglian smiled wryly and shook her head: "It turns out that this white falcon is still a foodie!" But I have to say that after Boer's efforts during this period, Ren Qinglian's dantian world has many more fairy fruits. It goes without saying that these things are beneficial to cultivation.

Slowly fading away from the mana-condensed figure, Ren Qinglian's divine sense left the dantian world.

Unknowingly, the sky has already brightened.

Xuanzang had a restful sleep, and at five drums and three o'clock, he called his disciples to go to the palace to change Guanwen during the early court.

The three monkeys cheered up, Zhu Gangli and Sha Wujing stood on the left and said: "Master, that foolish king promotes Taoism and destroys monks. He is afraid of making a mistake in his words and refuses to change the Guanwen. I will go there together with Master."

Xuanzang also wanted to promote Buddhism, so he immediately put on a brocade cassock and went to the Wufeng Tower to meet him.

Although the king didn't like the monks, he heard that Xuanzang and others came from the Eastern Tang Dynasty. He expected that these monks had some skills in traveling thousands of miles, and he didn't want to offend them, so he invited them into the hall.

Just at this time, the three immortals of Huli also came hand in hand, and when they met the three monkeys, they were really in the same situation.

The king was puzzled, and saw the officials of the Huangmen come to play: "Your Majesty, there are many people outside the gate listening to the announcement."

Xuan came to the front of the hall, but because there was no rain in the spring this year, but fearing that the summer months would be dry, I came here to ask the three masters to pray for a sweet rain to benefit the people.

The three monsters of Huli are very proud of themselves. Although they secretly feel that the three monkeys are unfathomable, at least in the eyes of these common people, they are still omnipotent gods.

The so-called one must tie the bell to untie the bell. On the way here, Ren Qinglian had already given Xuanzang an idea, asking him to use the power of the monkey to also rain. I want to pray for rain for the people.

Naturally, the Three Demons were not convinced, and wanted to take the opportunity to weigh the abilities of these Tang Dynasty monks, so they proposed a competition.

Although Ren Qinglian already knew the outcome of the competition, she also wanted to see what kind of Taoism the Xishan Emperor taught these three monsters.

The altar for praying for rain is very elegantly arranged. There are 28 star flags on the left, right, front and back.There are five large tanks at the bottom, all of which are filled with clear water, and some willow branches are floating on the water.On the branch of the willow, there is an iron plate, on which is the talisman of Lei Ting Du Si.There are five big piles on the left and right, and on the piles are written the lists of the emissaries of the five wild thunders.Next to each pile, there are two Taoist priests, each holding a hammer, waiting to drive the pile.There are many Taoist priests behind the stage, writing documents there.There is a paper stove in the middle, and there are several paper figurines, all dressed up as the messenger who carries the talisman and the god who praises the religion of the land.

Immortal Hu Li walked in, went up to the high platform and stood still.A little Taoist priest had already held a few ghost painting talismans and a sword beside him, and handed them to the great immortal.

Ren Qinglian nodded secretly, he could recognize some of the formations arranged on the altar, but he didn't know the magical effect of combining them together.

The next moment, I saw the Great Immortal Hu Li chanting a mantra, picked a talisman with his sword and burned it on the candle.

The two Taoist priests below took a talisman holder and a document, and burned them all together.

There is a sound of ping, the flags are fluttering, the branches are swaying, and the wind is blowing!

Zhu Ganglian whispered: "Wu Lei Shu Shen! I didn't expect this monster to be really capable..."

As he said that, the wind became stronger, and the sky began to be filled with thunder. The monkey knew that this demon way could indeed bring rain, so he immediately escaped from his soul to stop it.

Although Wulei Jushen can command the five gods of wind, cloud, thunder, lightning and rain, in comparison, the gods are not willing to quarrel with monkeys. What's more, they have heard about the matter of Che Chiguo for a long time. After all, more than 20 years That drought was what they were ordered to do.

Not surprisingly, the monkey won this competition.Next, the three demons were not convinced, and proposed a competition of "showing the saint with a ladder" and "guessing things from the partition", but the nephew took the lantern-uncle Zhao lost.

After losing several games in a row, the three monsters were even more unconvinced, so they used their housekeeping skills to bet with the monkey on "beheading", "disemboweling", and "bathing in a pan of oil", but in the end, one of them died in a match. After three games, all reimbursed.

When the king saw that all the national teachers he had relied on for many years had died tragically, he leaned on the dragon bed and burst into tears.

Xuanzang had always been cruel to monsters, and he didn't dislike the cruel methods of monkeys. He went up to sell his own Buddhist theories to the king, and talked about the various beauties of Buddhism, eloquently.

How could the king believe him? When the monkey saw him, he stepped forward to comfort him and said, "Don't look at the three monsters who are living with you in peace now. In two years, when your spirit fades, he will kill you and occupy you." Your country..."

Ren Qinglian nodded secretly. This is possible. After all, human desires are unlimited, let alone monsters. When they find that their cultivation is hard to improve and their aggressiveness fades, they will covet the prosperity of the world and seek the wealth of Che Chiguo. The foundation is not impossible.

Thinking about it, he also went up to point the king a few words, and said with a smile: "In the future, you can integrate the three religions into one, respect the monks, respect the Tao, and cultivate talents, so that the country can last forever."

As she said that, Ren Qinglian thought of what happened in Fengxian County. As a low-level ant, sometimes it's better to do things with your tail between your legs.

The king nodded, remembering the skills of Houzi and others, he hurriedly delivered a decree to recruit monks and recruit sages, and arranged a big banquet for Xuanzang and others.

Seeing what happened here, Ren Qinglian thought about a rumor about Mount Hua that she had received from Bai Falcon, said goodbye to Xuanzang and the others, called Boer, and stepped on it.

With the existence of the animal taming mark, Boer communicated with him, and with a long cry, he spread his wings, reaching three feet, flying sand and rocks, shaking heaven and earth, and disappeared with Ren Qinglian.
