Journey to the West: I Became the Focus of the Three Realms

"It is as bright as the night moon shining on Qionglin, and as rotten as the morning glow reflecting Zhupu."

Seeing the beauty of Princess Changle with his own eyes, Zhang Xiaoshun felt that it was not an exaggeration at all.

Li Shimin quietly saw everything in his eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly curved, showing a hint of a smile, it seemed good to marry his daughter to this kid.

That night, according to Zhang Xiaoshun's arrangement, Li Shimin summoned all his officials to give instructions for the funeral.

Wei Zheng jumped out from the side, saying that there is a way to help Li Shimin return to the sun, saying that he knows Cui Jue, the judge of the underworld, and can take a letter with him.

Li Shimin nodded slightly, showing a little shock, but his heart was not disturbed. Zhang Xiaoshun had already told him all this.

Sure enough, the kid had figured everything out.

With double guarantees, Li Shimin felt more at ease. He no longer held his breath in his heart, closed his eyes, and cast his soul straight to the underworld.

When Huanyang comes back, he will settle this account with Buddhism.

When Li Shimin passed away, although Wei Zheng made the promise firmly, but obviously not many people believed it, the ministers deliberated and specially held a grand funeral for Li Shimin.

All of a sudden, the entire imperial palace was mourning and mourning, and the sound of crying and howling spread throughout most of Chang'an City.

Chapter 56

Looking at Li Shimin's soul floating out of the city above the palace, Guanyin frowned.

When Zhang Xiaoshun and Li Shimin were talking, she saw it, but she didn't hear the specific content clearly.

Zhu Xianjian came forward and cut off her spiritual power.

She originally thought that Zhang Xiaoshun would ruin the Buddhist affairs, so she had prepared for the worst and was ready to take action.

But the current situation seems to be a little different from what she thought.

Didn't that kid go in to save King Tang?

Guanyin was puzzled, but he didn't know that Zhang Xiaoshun had already made a plan with Li Shimin.

At the gate of hell, Chi You, who was waiting for someone while reading a book with his mobile phone, was awakened by the growl of an iron-eating beast.

He turned his head and saw a judge bringing a man in a dragon robe coming.

Needless to say, Chi You also guessed the identity of the other party, and went straight to meet him.

"You are the king of Tang, come with me, I will take you to find the king of hell."

The judge Cui Jue next to him didn't know Chi You's intentions, so he was taken aback, and quickly reached out his hand to stop him, saying, "Master Chi You, you have a noble status, let me do it!"

"Let's go, don't make trouble, Tang Wang, let's go, I will ask you to understand, and I will send you back to life."

Pulling Cui Jue away, Chi You pulled Li Shimin and walked forward.

Cui Jue still wanted to stop him, but was stopped by Li Shimin with a smile: "You go, Master Chi You is a good god, and will make decisions for me."

Chi You, who was walking in front, twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard this, "Ghost is a good god, this is the first time I heard someone say that I, Lao Chi, is a good god."

Chi You took Li Shimin all the way through the gate of ghosts, and went straight to the Senluo Palace.

On the platform in front, the kings of Hades from the ten halls sit in turn.

Seeing Chi You rushing in, everyone sat up in shock and quickly came down to greet him.

This is a ferocious god, backed by a sage Empress Dowager Tu, even the Jade Emperor has to give face.

"King Yama, bring me the Book of Life and Death, and see how much life the King of Tang has left!"

Chi You was too lazy to talk nonsense, with a commanding tone.

Dazed for a moment, Yan Luo Wang hurriedly asked the judge in charge of life and death to bring it.

The book of life and death was opened, and King Yan Luo quickly found Li Shimin's name, and said truthfully: "Not yet, there are still 20 years."

At this time, the life and death book was changed by Cui Jue, and he filled in two strokes for the 13th year of Zhenguan and changed it to the 33rd year of Zhenguan.

"It's only been 20 years, so little. Don't be afraid, Tang Wang. I, Chi You, make the decision. If you cross out your name, you will not submit to the jurisdiction of the underworld in the future, and you can live a long and free life."

Patting Li Shimin on the shoulder, Chi You grinned, picked up the pen and was ready to draw.

The Hades King of the Tenth Hall was taken aback, and someone hurriedly stopped him: "Master Chi You, absolutely not, this move will definitely cause chaos."

"Don't scare me, don't beat me up and feed you to the dogs. If the Monkey King can swim, so can I, Chi You."

Chi You sneered, his body was full of breath, and he was not afraid of the Ten Kings of Hades at all.

While speaking, Chi You had already drawn with a pen and ticked off Li Shimin's name.

The Hades of the Ten Palaces were stunned, looking at each other, but because of Chi You's strength, they didn't dare to come over.

Li Shimin bravely came over and whispered a few words to Chi You, Chi You nodded while listening, scratching the pen in his hand from time to time, obviously not knowing whose name was crossed out.

The two got together for more than ten minutes, crossed out countless names, and then threw the notebook to the judge who was in charge of life and death.

In later generations, when the Great Tang Dynasty reigned supreme, dominated the world, and lasted forever, every time Li Shimin thought of what happened today, he was very grateful that he had the courage to make a wise decision.

"Go, King Tang, get on my mount and take you back to the world."

After finishing the matter, Chi You jumped on the back of the iron-eating beast and waved to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin hurried over and climbed up after him.

This made the judge Cui Jue next to him very anxious, so he grabbed Li Shimin in a hurry.

If Li Shimin just left like this, and Li Shimin was not allowed to see the tragic situation along the way to hell, how could he have the opportunity to mention the Water and Land Dharma Conference.

Wouldn't it be a waste of time for him to promise Buddhism?

"What's the matter, the king of Hades in the ten halls doesn't care, you little judge want to seek death?"

Chi You's eyes were not friendly, and the Tiger Soul Saber in his hand was raised slightly, ready to strike at any time.

Gritting his teeth, Cui Jue, who had no choice but to go all out, said it directly, in case the king of Tang was soft-hearted and willing to do it, that would be considered as fulfilling the agreement with Buddhism.

"It's like this, King Tang. Over the past countless years, hell has accumulated countless souls without owners. I hope that after His Majesty arrives in Yangjian, he will hold a water and land ceremony to save them."

Chapter 57

Is that really the case?

After hearing Cui Jue's words, Li Shimin's eyes flickered slightly, and he was deep in thought.

Everything is a conspiracy in the hands of Buddhism.

What kind of role does everyone play in this.

Jinghe Dragon King, Prime Minister Wei Zheng, Cui Jue, and that Yuan Shoucheng.

These thoughts just flashed in Li Shimin's mind, but they didn't show up.

According to Zhang Xiaoshun's instructions, Li Shimin responded.

It is almost impossible to stop the westward trend. When the national strength becomes stronger in the future, it will not be too late to settle the stumbling blocks.

Seeing that Li Shimin agreed, Cui Jue heaved a sigh of relief. Although things went a little wrong, they went smoothly. King Tang finally agreed to the Water and Land Ceremony.

After bidding farewell to King Hades of the Ten Palaces, Li Shimin was led by Chi You and sent all the way to the Six Realms of Reincarnation.

"That door, you can return to the sun in the past, Tang Wang, please help me say hello to Daojun."

After Chi You finished speaking, seeing Li Shimin in a daze, he went up and pushed him.

Li Shimin was uncontrollable, and fell into one of the vortexes, disappearing without a trace.

After finishing this, Chi You rode his iron-eating beast, ran straight to a nearby palace, pushed open the door and rushed in.

"Your Majesty, according to your instructions, Xiao Chi has finished his work and returned."

"Let's go, wow!"

The next moment, a big hole opened above the palace, and Chi You turned into a light spot and disappeared into the sky at a faster speed than he could rush in.

In the Houtu palace, the corners of the Houtu empress's mouth curled up, revealing a shockingly beautiful arc, and she slowly withdrew her fist.

"Assert yourself, but those guys with hypocritical faces in Buddhism are really annoying, let them have a headache!"

Muttering in her mouth, Empress Houtu waved her hand lightly, the big hole that was opened on it quickly closed, and the whole Houtu palace fell into darkness again.

At the end of the big hole, one can vaguely see a large altar in front of it, on which there are eleven erected tablets.

In the palace, Li Shimin was not put into the coffin as in the original book, but was lying on his original dragon bed at the request of Chang Le and Wei Zheng.

At this moment, Li Shimin, who had closed his eyes tightly and made no sound, suddenly opened them.

"Huh, I'm back."

With a long breath, Li Shimin sat up straight.

Even in Journey to the West, it is very rare for a dead person to come back to life. The expressions of all civil servants, military officers, princes and concubines changed wildly, and some even cried out in shock.

Only Xu Maogong, Wei Zheng, Qin Qiong, Yu Chigong, Cheng Yaojin and others were not afraid, and quickly surrounded Li Shimin.

Keeping everything in mind, Li Shimin thought to himself, indeed, the few he recognized were loyal enough to help them get their names ticked off the life and death book.

Zhang Xiaoshun and Chang Le are not here at this time, in order to let Guanyin lower his guard, they are in another room.

At this moment, Zhang Xiaoshun was lying on a chair with his legs crossed, holding a bunch of grapes in his hand, throwing his head up and throwing it into his mouth, eating happily.

As expected of something from the palace, the taste is good.

It's a rare time to come here and enjoy the emperor's treatment.

Chang Le and Xiao Jin Yang sat on the chairs beside them, the two sisters were in a daze, and Li Shimin was still awake, so they couldn't let go.

Suddenly, at this moment, screams came out from outside, and someone faintly shouted words like "the emperor died and came back to life".

The two sisters stood up in surprise in an instant, with unconcealable joy in their eyes.

"They said I wouldn't lie to you, but I still don't believe it."

Zhang Xiaoshun curled his lips and dropped the grapes in his hand.

When Li Shimin woke up, it was time for him to go back. He had already told Li Shimin what to do next, just wait for the day of the Water and Land Ceremony.

"Thank you, thank you, really thank you, Xiao Shun."

The overwhelmed Chang Le couldn't hide his inner excitement, and suddenly threw himself into Zhang Xiaoshun's arms.

In an instant, Zhang Xiaoshun stayed in the same place, feeling the beauty in his arms, smelling the faint fragrance in his nostrils, and forgot where he was.

After a while, Chang Le, who calmed down and realized the problem, ran out with a blushing face and dragged the dumbfounded little Jinyang, not daring to look Zhang Xiaoshun in the eye.

"It smells so good!" Gently sniffing the lingering fragrance in the air, looking at Changle's back, Zhang Xiaoshun showed an intoxicated smile on his face.

Chapter 58

In the next few days, Li Shimin proceeded step by step to prepare for the Water and Land Ceremony. On the recommendation of the minister, he found Tang Sanzang who was the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi.

Seeing that nothing went wrong, Guanyin gradually forgot about Zhang Xiaoshun.

This day is the day when the Water and Land Ceremony will be held.

After waking up from the practice, Zhang Xiaoshun left the study, took the Zhuxian Sword, and headed for the center of the city with Huang'er.

He was going to witness how Guanyin could not come down from the stage.

With him at the helm, the Water and Land Ceremony is destined to be a joke.

In the center of the city, a high platform was specially built for this ceremony, and Zhang Xiaoshun found the target easily.

At this moment, Tang Sanzang on the high platform is chanting scriptures and preaching the Dharma, and reciting the scriptures for transcending salvation.

Around, surrounded by many people, watching with great interest.
