Journey to the West from My Backyard

"Okay, Marshal Canopy, don't repeat what you said. No matter what you say with your tongue, I can't work hard for you just because of your words. Come to me today , I can pretend that you have never been here, and don’t talk to other people. But don’t try to interfere with my will.”

Zhao Gongming waved his hand and said to Li Taibai.

After listening to Zhao Gongming's resolute words, Li Taibai's heart became quiet instead.Although Zhao Gongming did not publicly say that he wanted to help him, but judging by his attitude, Zhao Gongming is a courtier of the heaven after all, and he has already expressed his attitude if he knows the truth and does not report it. At least he is biased towards favoritism On his own side, Li Taibai's heart began to settle down at this moment.

"Master Zhao Gongming, since you have already said this, the younger generation will not be able to force Lord Wu Caishen. But before I leave, there is something I want to say to Lord Wu Caishen."

"What?"

Zhao Gongming asked Li Taibai.

"Lord Martial God of Wealth, although His Majesty the Jade Emperor has not returned to the Heavenly Court, what this junior can promise to Lord Zhao Gongming is that if Lord Zhao Gongming is really willing to help us in times of crisis, I can make the decision for him."

"When the time comes, Datian respects Zhangtian Palace, and then he can release Lord Martial God of Wealth back to Jin'ao Island."

Li Taibai said softly to Zhao Gongming.

Then without waiting for Zhao Gongming's reaction, Li Taibai left Zhao Gongming's mansion directly.To be honest, this time Li Taibai himself did not expect such a big gain from this trip.It turned out that Li Taibai just wanted to win Zhao Gongming's favor, and it would be best to make Zhao Gongming favor him, but this time there was indeed a huge windfall.

Because he was surprised to find that Zhao Gongming was so loyal to his teacher, but Zhao Gongming, who was so filial, was unable to return to Tongtian Sect Master to serve his teacher because he was serving in the Heavenly Court.

Now Li Taibai's temptation to Zhao Gongming is not great. You must know that when Zhao Gongming was killed by the gods, his physical body was already far-reaching, and his true spirit was placed on the list of gods.The only way to release Zhao Gongming's spirit is to release his true spirit from the list of gods, but only the Jade Emperor can do this.

Right now, although Master Tongxuan and his side have already dominated the Heavenly Court, they are not legitimate Great Heavenly Venerables after all, so naturally they cannot grasp the list of gods.Although Zhao Gongming is extremely powerful, no matter how powerful he is, Zhao Gongming is just a giant in the heavenly court, and will not obey the Jade Emperor.

In other words, Zhao Gongming is just a deterrent in the heavenly court, listening to the tune but not to the announcement.In fact, it will not be of great help to the Heavenly Court, and if it is a condition to release Zhao Gongming from the list of gods at this time, Zhao Gongming will definitely be tempted.

Li Taibai was sure that Zhao Gongming had changed at this time, and to be honest, Li Taibai had made a lot of preparations before coming here this time.Li Taibai originally planned to go to see the eldest princess, but after listening to Taibai Jinxing's words, Li Taibai gave up this idea.According to Taibai Jinxing, the eldest princess will not be in danger for a while.

At this time, Li Taibai didn't think too much, and left Nantianmen directly.He has stayed here for a long time, and if another heavenly guard comes, he is afraid that he will be discovered by people from the Taishang Laojun's lineage.At that time, if it is not good to scare the snake, Li Taibai did not return to the place of the Jade Emperor after leaving Nantianmen, but went to Xiniu Hezhou again.

Li Taibai went directly to the three-star cave of the oblique moon, where Li Taibai met Sun Wukong's master, Venerable Subhuti again.There are two reasons for Li Taibai to find Sun Wukong this time. One is that he is very worried about Sun Wukong, and the second is based on what Venerable Subhuti revealed to himself before.

Once Sun Wukong came out of the retreat, his cultivation would improve a lot.Li Taibai knew that Sun Wukong was righteous to Yuntian, and he would definitely help him when he knew he was in trouble.Besides, this monkey was not born to be a fuel-efficient lamp.After the Venerable Subhuti saw Li Taibai, he asked Li Taibai why he came.

Facing one of the strongest men in the world, Li Taibai naturally did not dare to lie.So he told Venerable Subhuti all about his abacus, and the expression on Venerable Subhuti's face remained unchanged after hearing Li Taibai's words.Obviously, in the eyes of such a person, there seems to be no major event that can shock him.

"Marshal Tianpeng, even if you don't tell me what you think, I can guess it. To be honest, I am a Buddhist and I don't want to participate in your affairs. And Sun Wukong is my disciple, so I naturally don't want him to accompany you." You stir up this muddy water."

Venerable Subhuti said to Li Taibai.

After listening to Venerable Subhuti's words, Li Taibai already expected in his heart that this sage was probably begging for favors from himself.After thinking about it, Li Taibai had a countermeasure.

"Honorable Subhuti, I know that the biggest thing about Buddhism right now is the spread of the Dharma to the East, but the bottom line about the spread of the Dharma to the East is not the Great Heavenly Lord Jade Emperor. On the contrary, it is the inheritance of the lineage of the Supreme Lord. .”

"Although Nanzhan Buzhou has a very vast territory, most of them believe in the Sanqing. Moreover, several leaders of this Taoism regard it as their own territory. They are all extremely disgusted with the spread of Buddhism to the east. Right now The Heavenly Court is also ruled by Master Tongxuan, I am afraid that when the time comes when Buddhism spreads to the east, they will definitely increase their resistance, and hope that the saint will learn from it."

Li Taibai suddenly said to Venerable Subhuti.

After listening to Li Taibai's words, Venerable Subhuti showed a smile on his face.

"Marshal Tianpeng, I understand what you're saying. It's true that they are a great obstacle to the spread of Buddhism to the East, but after the Jade Emperor returns to the Heavenly Court, will he help us facilitate this matter?"

Venerable Subhuti asked Li Taibai.

After listening to Venerable Subhuti's words, Li Taibai shook his head slowly.

"Honorable Subhuti, I'm just a minister under the Jade Emperor, so naturally I can't help him make decisions. But what I can assure you is that when the Jade Emperor regains control of the heavenly court, the younger generation will definitely speak well in front of the Jade Emperor and try our best to help Buddhism. I don’t know if Venerable Subhuti thinks this junior is sincere enough?”

Li Taibai said to Venerable Subhuti, and Venerable Subhuti laughed out loud after hearing what Li Taibai said.
"Okay, it's really awesome for young people. I didn't expect Marshal Tianpeng to practice for a short time. Not only has his cultivation base reached a very good level, but his temperament is also quite good. It really impresses me."

Venerable Subhuti said to Li Taibai.

After listening to Venerable Subhuti's words, Li Taibai and him both burst out laughing.In this way, I bid farewell to Master Subhuti.Li Taibai went to a nearby cave according to his instructions, and Sun Wukong was said to be about to leave the pass at this time.

Coincidentally, when Li Taibai was about to walk to the cave guided by Venerable Subhuti, suddenly the mountain shook, and a terrifying power was emanating from the surroundings.Li Taibai was also very happy to feel this familiar aura, he hurriedly ran the law of speed and rushed to the vicinity where it was.

At this time, I saw a monkey in tattered clothes jumping up, emitting a red light in the sky, which looked very majestic.

"Brother Monkey, stop being handsome. Why don't you meet your old friend when he visits?"

Li Taibai spoke from underground.

Hearing this familiar voice, Monkey King put away his majesty and returned to the ground at this time.

"Brother Tianpeng Marshal, why are you here? My old grandson has practiced here for so long, but he never thought that he would meet you right after he came out. It's really a gratifying thing to congratulate."

Sun Wukong was very happy to see Li Taibai.But it's no wonder, this monkey has practiced in the cave for a long time, and Sun Wukong has no one to accompany him during the cultivation process. No matter how talented this monkey is, after all, his nature likes to make noise and tell the truth.Such a closed-door retreat is also embarrassing for the monkey.

"Brother Monkey, it's a long story, but the two of us have just met, so we won't talk about it here. You might as well clean your body first, and then we two brothers will find a place to have a drink and chat. I don't know what you want, Brother Monkey. How about next?"

Li Taibai said to Sun Wukong.After listening to Li Taibai's words, Sun Wukong also looked at himself. Usually this monkey has a thick skin, but at this time he couldn't help but blush. At this time, he was in tatters, and there was an unpleasant smell coming from his body. smell.

"Brother, wait for me first, my old grandson will go back as soon as he goes."

Said that Monkey King disappeared into the sky in a tumble, leaving behind this voice.Seeing Monkey King leaving at such a speed, he couldn't help sighing.

"This monkey's cultivation may have really improved a lot. Although the previous Monkey King was very fast, he couldn't do it so casually."

Now this monkey has disappeared from Li Taibai's sight in just an instant.This made Li Taibai very happy. After a while, he saw a stream of light coming from a distance. This stream of light gradually reached Li Taibai's side and turned into the appearance of Monkey King again.

In this way, Li Taibai and Monkey King went to the restaurant near Xiniu Hezhou. Although Xiniu Hezhou is the realm where gods live, there are many mortals here.So many areas here are similar to the human world, but Xiniu Hezhou and Nanzhanbuzhou are also completely different.

Although Sun Wukong showed his true nature at this time, no one would find it strange in the restaurant in Xiniu Hezhou.Because there are often gods showing miracles here, everyone is no stranger to it.If it were in Nanzhan Buzhou, with the image of Sun Wukong's ugly face and mouth, I'm afraid it would scare away a lot of people.

"Haha, it's really fun. These days of my old grandson's cultivation are too boring. But I didn't expect to meet brother you just after leaving the mountain, and you can taste such good food and wine. It's really a fairy day. "

Sun Wukong said with emotion.

"Brother Monkey, what are you talking about. When you are a god, you are often restrained, how can you be as free as the two of us."

Li Taibai said to Sun Wukong.

"That's it, that's it, my brother is right. It's my old grandson who made a slip of the tongue, and he deserves a fine, a fine."

This Sun Wukong said to Li Taibai quickly.

In this way, Li Taibai and Monkey King were a little dazed after drinking for three rounds.Although both of them are gods, they have a way to use their minds to resolve the alcohol, but this will lose the fun, so the two just tease each other drunkenly.

"By the way, Marshal Tianpeng, you are looking for something for my old grandson this time. You are not like me. Although my old grandson is very leisurely on weekdays, brother, you always have important things to do. This time I came to find Is there something wrong with me?"

Sun Wukong suddenly asked Li Taibai.

"Brother Hou and I are already inseparable, so naturally we won't lie to Brother Hou. This time I came to Brother Hou to ask for something."

Li Taibai said to Sun Wukong.

"Whatever brother is talking about, it's all brothers in the same family who have something to say, it doesn't matter."

"Brother Monkey, the thing is like this. Since you practiced in seclusion, many things have happened one after another. Brother, I will go to the underworld first."

Then Li Taibai told Monkey King everything that happened during this period.This monkey was already daring, but he was still extremely shocked when he heard Li Taibai's behavior.
