I'm a Demon King in Journey to the West

At this time, in the street outside the palace, Wang Lingguan, who was hiding among the monsters and human races watching the excitement, secretly touched the imperial decree in his sleeve.

After the Jade Emperor returned from Yuanshi Tianzun, he sent him to the lower realm to pass the imperial edict to Shi Zheng.

This time, the wording was more severe. It can be seen that Yuanshi Tianzun did not protect these monsters like Lingbao Tianzun.

With Yuqing's acquiescence, Wang Lingguan dared to go down to the realm to deliver the decree.

But as soon as he arrived in the city, he found that it was already a jubilant sea, full of joyful monsters and human races, and the atmosphere supporting Shi Zheng's ascension to the throne was extremely strong.

If he dared to read the imperial decree of the Jade Emperor to spoil the atmosphere at this time, if Shi Zheng didn't kill him, he would also be torn to pieces by the demons, and it would all be for the demon emperor's entertainment.

Wang Lingguan hid for a while, and finally decided to withdraw to the Heavenly Court first, and the edict could not be read out.

When he lifted himself up and flew away, he heard Shi Zheng's voice from the water behind him, "An era when the monster race is not killed at will, and they are living in the world..."

The Heavenly Court has the right to rule over the human world. Even if it does not directly appoint and remove the monarch of the human race, if a certain country offends the Heavenly Court, it will bring down the disaster of destroying the country and make this country disappear from the land.

The Heavenly Court can take life and death against the monster race, and there will be a thunderbolt if there is nothing to do.

What Shi Zheng said can't be killed at will is basically asking for power from the heavenly court.

This is rebellion.

Wang Lingguan quickly returned to the Lingxiao Hall.

After the Jade Emperor came back from Yuanshi Tianzun, he sat in the Lingxiao Palace and took charge of the affairs of the Three Realms.

Seeing that Wang Lingguan who took out the decree came back, he thought he had read the decree, "Then how did Shi Zheng react?"

Wang Lingguan then told what he had seen and heard in Wangxia City. In short, with the atmosphere at that time, if he read it out, Heavenly Court would lose him.

The Jade Emperor furrowed his brows tightly, then forcibly opened them, and then wrinkled uncontrollably.

Whether or not the imperial decree was read out is second to none, but Shi Zheng actually established himself as the emperor after he went to see Yuanshi Tianzun for a while?

He hasn't taken away his title yet, but he has added a bigger name to himself.

Don't take him and Tianting seriously at all.

It was the first time he was so angry since he beat Monkey Sun to make trouble in the sky.

As the ruler of the Three Realms, he didn't show Shi Zheng any color. This lion spirit really doesn't know how much he weighs.

The Jade Emperor wanted to ask Wang Lingguan if he had seen the Lingbao Tianzun, but on second thought, with Yuanshi Tianzun's acquiescence, there was no need to worry about Lingbao Tianzun.

The Jade Emperor said coldly: "The demon country has no virtue, and has no reverence for the heavens. From now on, not even a single drop of rain is allowed to fall on the lion camel city and Hengyuan city in Luzhou and Xiniuhezhou in Beiju. Unless the chickens have finished cutting the rice mountain After the dog licks the mountain, the lamp flame burns the golden lock."

Of course, there are not only monsters in Wangxia City in Beiju Luzhou, but also wild monsters and some human races who live scattered and call themselves kings.

But it was a sin in itself for them to let Shi Zheng gossip like this.

"The Jade Emperor is wise, I see that monster at home and abroad still pays great attention to farming. There are rice fields, fish ponds and other places, because of Shi Zheng's immorality, disasters are caused. See how many of those monsters support him."

"If the king has no virtue, natural disasters will continue, and the world is justified."

"Shi Zheng is a foolish king, and he still talks about leading the monsters to be self-reliant. Without him, the little monsters can still make ends meet, but with him, they will be doomed. I wonder if the monsters will regret it?"

"It's too late to regret it. When Shi Zheng ascended the throne, the monsters who were watching from the side laughed, but they didn't know that it was just the sound of mourning in the future, haha. The shortsightedness of the monsters is evident."

Listening to the words of these immortal officials, Wang Lingguan only felt that every sentence was harsh. Although he also felt that Shi Zheng's move was shocking, but there is a wrong and a debt, and it is enough to capture Shi Zheng and Yuan Chiyu, so why bother the innocent.

But this is also the consistent punishment practice of the Heavenly Court.

The king of this country is stupid, so the ministers and common people are not good things, they should all die.

Taibai Jinxing was at the side, and only silently listened to the discussions of the other immortal officials, without saying a word.

He recalled the orderly appearance of Wangxia City, and thought that the people in that city would have no means of living, and there would be fighting because of lack of food. Tuo Country and Shi Tuo Ridge were originally populated by monsters, but Shi Zheng took over them later. Why don’t you just punish Wangxia City, this is Shi Zheng’s lair.”

The Jade Emperor glanced at Taibai Jinxing and did not speak.

But the other Xianqing retorted Taibai Jinxing, "Mr. Xing, if you leave him two cities, he can completely tear down the east wall and make up for the west wall. How can he achieve the purpose of punishment?"

Taibai Jinxing's mind has been exposed, but it's hard to intercede, "Oh, I forgot this."

Wang Lingguan couldn't bear it any longer, and said worriedly: "Seventy to eighty percent of Shi Zheng's subordinates are monsters. These monsters have no food to eat. I'm afraid they will fly to the place where the human race gathers to grab food and kill people. When the time comes, the world will be in chaos and the wounded will be killed." Innocent?"

He knew that his accusation was serious, but he still wanted to say it.

The Jade Emperor said in a deep voice: "That proves that the nature of the monster race is so cruel, bloodthirsty, and they only kill people and take food."

"At that time, even Lingbao Tianzun will have nothing to say."

"Monsters, their nature is like this. If the monsters really rush to the place where the human race lives, it will prove a truth: it's okay for the monsters to scatter everywhere, but gathering together is a big threat to the world."

"That's right, that's right, let's see who dares to mention the establishment of the demon kingdom in the future. If Shi Zheng still has the shame, he should die and apologize for causing such a big mess!"

At that time, the master is famous, even Lingbao Tianzun can't keep him, even if he has Yuan Chiyu to help him, but don't forget, behind the heaven is Yuanshi Tianzun.

Wang Lingguan wanted to speak, but suddenly saw Taibai Jinxing shaking his head slightly at him, so he had to give up.

When he left Lingxiao Palace and flew towards the Taihe Palace of Emperor Zhenwu, he heard someone calling him behind him, it was Taibai Jinxing.

"Mr. Xing..."

Taibai Jinxing persuaded: "You also know that Shi Zheng caused a catastrophe, so it is reasonable for the Heavenly Court to punish him. If you have something to say, don't say it, it will cause trouble for yourself."

Tell it to Wang Lingguan, and even more so to yourself.

Wang Lingguan said: "Even if it is punished, this method should not be used. What did the implicated human race do wrong?"

"This is killing three birds with one stone." Taibai Jinxing instructed Wang Lingguan, "That's all for now." After speaking, he left.

While flying, Wang Lingguan pondered Taibai Jinxing's words in his mind, and suddenly he understood.

Furthermore, I couldn't help but feel chills.

—

Shi Zheng's enthronement ceremony was very successful, and the Heavenly Court did not send anyone to make trouble.

Of course, he guessed that he might have sent someone over, but he was scared away by the momentum.

The demon emperor ascended the throne, and the whole country had a three-day holiday, and the inside and outside of the city became a sea of ​​joy.

Lingbao Tianzun stayed for a few more days, taught Shi Zheng some secret techniques of refining weapons, and felt that it was time to leave.

Before he left, he asked Shi Zheng to bring the jade seal of the demon-supporting general, then with a wave of his sleeve, he wiped off the writing on the bottom of the seal, and then wiped it with his hand, and engraved four new characters: Seal of the Demon Emperor.

Shi Zheng took the jade seal and said with a smile: "Even if the Jade Emperor sent someone to pass the decree, it would be useless to return the jade seal to General Fuyao. This is a new seal, not the same as the one he gave me. "

Lingbao Tianzun left an exhortation, which is also an expectation, "Work hard and bring some changes to this world!" Then he disappeared in a flash.

Shi Zheng felt like being entrusted by the old senior, and even the jade seal in his hand became heavy.

—

Almost a month has passed since Shi Zheng claimed to be the Demon Emperor.

Thousands of miles of blue sky, not even a single cloud, the vast and boundless blue enveloped the earth.

The flat peach tree in Shi Zheng's room was often taken out to bask in the sun recently.

Because the sun is so good, especially the morning sun, it shines warmly on the body, making many monsters lazy, showing their original shape in their own yard, lying on the ground, drying their backs and belly.

However, at noon and afternoon, the sun became venomous, and some human races had to wear straw hats when going out to avoid sunburn.

After almost half a month, many people, including Shi Zheng, realized one thing.

Why is it not raining?

It's coming to the rainy season soon, why isn't there even a drop of rain?

Looking at the gradually wilting seedlings in the field, and the increasingly distressed cultivators.

An ominous premonition enveloped Shi Zheng's heart.

He and Yuan Chiyu set off immediately to find Immortal Hu Li in Lion Camel City, and saw that the seedlings around the city were also suffering from drought.

Seeing Immortal Hu Li, he complained, "Your Majesty, I was just going to find you. This day is really weird. It hasn't rained for almost 20 days. Yesterday, a cloud finally came, and I thought it would rain." , and a gust of wind blew it away again."

Yuan Chiyu said to Shi Zheng: "It seems that the situation is the same as ours."

Shi Zheng said to Immortal Hu Li: "Try to go on stage and see if you can ask for the rain?"

"That's what I meant!"

In fact, Immortal Huli's platform for praying for rain was all ready, and it was originally planned to pray for rain today, if the demon emperor hadn't come and broke the plan temporarily, this would have already been done on stage.

Great Immortal Hu Li brought his disciples to the rain-seeking stage, holding a sword, ringing the Dharma bell, and chanting mantras.

Shouting: "An order, the wind blows—"

Shi Zheng and Yuan Chiyu stood under the rain-seeking platform and watched. After the sound of "the wind rises—" they really felt a damp wind blowing from the sky.

Immortal Huli burned the yellow talisman again, threw the token, and said loudly, "Yun Lai—"

In the blue sky, clouds quickly gathered, covering the sun, and the ground felt cool.

Great Immortal Huli took advantage of the victory to pursue, reciting the mantra, "Lightning and thunder—"

Thunder rumbled from the dark clouds, and lightning exploded in the air like fiery trees and silver flowers.

"Luoyu—" Immortal Huli roared.

This is the most critical step, the previous ones are all preparations for rain.

But the expected rain did not fall.

Shi Zheng stretched out his hand, not to mention raindrops, but not even a mist.

Immortal Huli shouted again and again: "It's raining!"

Not only was there no rain, but even the original dark clouds were gradually dissipating.

Immortal Hu Li anxiously begged Shi Zheng who was under the rain platform: "If it is normal, the rain should have fallen long ago."

What he learned was authentic Taoist magic, and he went on stage to burn the talismans of the Taishang Laojun in the sky, and soon the heaven will rain down.

The three brothers used this method to be the national teacher of Che Chi State for 20 years, and they tried it repeatedly.

He has used it well in the past few years in Lion Camel City, and never missed it.

I don't know what happened today.

At this time, Yuan Chiyu pointed to a dark cloud that was dissipating and said, "There is a figure there, let's go and have a look."

After being reminded by him, Shi Zheng also noticed a figure moving inside.

The two of them chose stealth very tacitly, and flew towards the cloud quickly and stealthily.

Inside the clouds, I saw a man with a dark dragon head talking mysteriously to a young boy, "Boy Tuiyun, you don't need to come here if you are called by tokens from these places."

Beside them stood a man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, a gorgeous woman, and a white-haired mother-in-law.

Shi Zheng guessed it was Lei Gong and Dian Mu, and Granny Feng.

Tuiyun boy nodded: "Understood, I won't come here again."

The leader is obviously the Dragon King, and the boy is the Cloud Tuizi who is in charge of releasing the clouds.

The Dragon King looked around at the four people in front of him, and said: "I received the order from the Jade Emperor, and I was about to rain, but I was halfway there when I was caught up by the people from the Heavenly Court, who told me that the rain order was cancelled, and gave me a ticket. The picture says that as long as it is the place circled above, there will be no rain in the future, and even a passing sneeze cannot be sneezed."

As he said that, the Dragon King took out a picture, "Look at it too, since I don't need to rain, you don't need to bother." He passed the picture around to several other people.

Naturally, Shi Zheng and Yuan Chiyu also saw it, and they saw that the area circled above was the whole area of ​​Luzhou in Beiju, as well as Lion Camel City and Hengyuan City in Hezhou, Xiniu.

The other little gods were surprised, "It won't rain in these places in the future?"

Lei Gong and Dian Mu glanced at each other, "It will be easier after that, at least a quarter of the work will be reduced."

There are a total of four continents, and now the entire continent and two major cities do not need rain.

They release the wind, make clouds, and release thunder and lightning, all in preparation for rain, but since the Dragon King doesn't use it for rain, they don't need to make preliminary preparations.

The so-called dry thunder does not rain, since it does not rain, there is no need to thunder.

"I understand, I understand, it will be easier in the future."

"In the future, you don't need to listen to the rain tokens in these places."

"Let's go, we're all going back."

All the gods related to the rain dispersed, and the Dragon King flew all the way to the north, preparing to return to the sea.

He is Ao Shun, the Dragon King of the North Sea, a dark black dragon.

After flying for a while, he suddenly saw two men appearing in front of him. Through coercion, the Dragon King immediately judged that these two men were not easy to mess with.

"You, what are you going to do?"

"Why doesn't the Jade Emperor bring rain to our demon country? Don't be afraid, you are the head of the water clan, and in the eyes of heaven, you are just a beast with a lin. I regard you as half of my own. If you say so, I certainly don't I will be rough on you." Shi Zheng said.

As soon as the Dragon King of Beihai heard this tone and words, he knew that this person was the Demon Emperor Shi Zheng.

A North Sea separates Beiju Luzhou from three other continents.

As the Dragon King of Beihai, how could he not know what happened in Beiju Luzhou.

Ao Shun hurriedly waved his hands and said, "I don't do my own business. Heavenly Court sent Tian Ding to tell me that it is not allowed to rain on the territory of your demon country. As for when it will rain, wait for the order of Heavenly Court. I am just a person who is ordered to do business."

Yuan Chiyu asked, "Has this kind of thing happened before?"

"...Two years ago, there was another incident, saying that it should not rain on Fengxian County, because the county guards there did something disrespectful and immoral."

Fengxian County?It was the city that overthrew the Jade Emperor's tribute and was retaliated by the Jade Emperor. Shi Zheng asked back: "Do you think our situation is the same as Fengxian County?"

Isn't this nonsense, it must be about the same, no rain is the normal punishment method of heaven to the world.Ao Shun shook his head, "I don't know about that."

Yuan Chiyu could tell at a glance that the old dragon was playing tricks, and said coldly, "You are really dishonest."

Ao Shun shrunk his neck, "How dare I be dishonest, the Heavenly Court told me to rain, but if the time difference is an inch, and the rainfall is an inch away, I have to move my head. You have great power to compete with the Heavenly Court, I am just a mud loach .”

People call themselves cement loaches, and Shi Zheng can't scold people harder than Dragon King himself, let alone he doesn't want to, "Forget it. I already know it in my heart, you can go back to the sea."

Ao Shun quickly slipped away.

Yuan Chiyu looked at the Dragon King's back and said: "The Heavenly Court does not allow the Dragon King to rain. He wants to cause a drought and starve us to death. If the drought continues, we can still eat the stock this year. What about next year? The Heavenly Court is working hard to embarrass us. "

Shi Zheng bit his lips and said: "It's really vicious. There is no end to the drought, people's hearts are fluctuating, and the monsters who have just gathered together may easily fall apart."

Weather control has always been the prerogative of the Heavenly Court, and even Buddhism cannot get involved.

On the way to learn the scriptures, the Taoist school won the battle between Buddhism and Taoism in several countries because the Taoist priests can call the wind and call the rain, while the Buddhist school cannot show a strong technical advantage.

"Yeah, once the normal farming and harvesting is destroyed and the monsters have nothing to eat, will they stay in peace?"

Shi Zheng said worriedly: "This drought has lasted for several years. The starving monsters will rebel if they don't keep them together, and they will attack the human country in groups, killing people and taking food."

In that way, there are three direct consequences.

As soon as Shi Zheng is punished, his demon kingdom will collapse, and his image will completely become a "big devil king". You don't need to smear him, you will be black.

The slogan of harmonious coexistence between the monster race and the human race has all become empty talk.

How many gods the Heavenly Court sends and how many cultivators the human race sends to exterminate them are all within reason.

Secondly, he directly slapped Lingbao Tianzun in the face, telling him not to dare to openly support any "rebels" in the future.

After all, in the end of the support, it is such a group of guys who do all kinds of evil, and Lingbao Tianzun himself will not forgive himself.

Thirdly, when the human race is attacked by monsters, they will definitely ask for help from the gods and Buddhas. The incense in the world will be burned like a car, and at the national level, the kings of various countries will also lead their people to sacrifice to the heavens, and the spirit sacrifices will continue to flow.

It really kills three birds with one stone.

Yuan Chiyu said coldly: "This is trying to stir up conflicts between the human race and the demon race."

Shi Zheng said: "Go back first, and discuss it with everyone."

Yuan Chiyu followed Shi Zheng back to the ground first, called Immortal Huli, and sent people to inform Immortal Luli and Immortal Yangli, together with the courtiers of Wangxia City, gathered in the conference hall to discuss how to resolve the matter.

The topic is: Heaven does not give us rain, how should we deal with it?

At the meeting, Shi Zheng expressed the three-point analysis that he thought of just now, which caused a lot of angry shouts and curses.

"This is too vicious!"

"It's so bad."

"Isn't this pushing good monsters to evil paths?"

It is said that monsters are poisonous, but the viciousness of monsters is often very primitive, nothing more than fangs and claws hurting people.

The Heavenly Court kills people without seeing blood, locking up water resources can kill living beings.

Jiuling Yuansheng was annoyed: "Is this forcing us to declare war on the Heavenly Court?"

"I'm afraid that the time is not ripe." Bai Lujing said worriedly: "I'm afraid that as soon as the news of the war with the Heavenly Court spreads, more than half of the monsters will escape."

"But if there is no war, the residents will flee if they know that there is a natural disaster here." Huang Shijing sighed.

Great Immortal Huli mournfully said: "Does Sanqing not care about what Heavenly Court has done?"

Immortal Yang Li and Immortal Lu Li also hoped that their idol, Sanqing, would make a move, "Let's burn the text and pray, and ask Sanqing to help me."

Shi Zheng and Yuan Chiyu exchanged glances.

Do you want to ask Lingbao Tianzun for help?

The two of them shook their heads at each other, thinking in unison in their hearts, no, we can't ask Lingbao Tianzun for help in everything.

Besides, if the Jade Emperor dared to do this, he might have the secret support of the Taishang Laojun or Yuanshi Tianzun.

You have to rely on yourself.

Shi Zheng vetoed Immortal Huli's proposal, "There is no need to pray to Sanqing, let's rely on ourselves and find a solution."

Everyone looked at him together, waiting for the Demon Emperor's decision.

Shi Zheng said calmly: "It's actually not difficult to solve."

Seeing His Majesty's relaxed tone, the others breathed a sigh of relief.

That's right, the strength of His Majesty the Demon Emperor and the Great General, even if all gods and Buddhas are pulled out of the rankings, they can still be at the top. They are great gods themselves, with boundless magic power.

"Three methods. First, use spells to divert water from rivers, lakes and seas to irrigate the fields. This is not difficult, and you can basically do it."

"It's not difficult." Immortal Huli frowned and said, "But Lion Camel City is located in Xiniu Hezhou. If we draw water from the surrounding rivers, we are afraid that other countries will not want it and cause war."

Their geographical location is no better than Wangxia City. If they are in Beiju Luzhou, it will be easy to handle, but there is also a Buddhist gate in Xiniu Hezhou. If their water source is moved, they may have to fight.

Shi Zheng nodded to Great Immortal Huli, expressing that he heard his concerns, "Then I will talk about the second method. I can create a magic weapon to distill seawater and turn seawater into fresh water for drinking. Lion camel city and Hengyuan city It can be used this way.”

"Distillation?"

Everyone looked at Shi Zheng suspiciously, and waited quietly for an explanation. His Majesty the Demon Emperor always came up with some words they hadn't heard before, but after the explanation, they felt suddenly enlightened, and felt that the words were really easy to use.

Shi Zheng conjured up pen, ink and paper, gave them simple sketches, and explained what distillation was.

Everyone suddenly realized, "In this case, can we still produce sea salt? Selling it to the human race can earn a lot of money."

This is an accidental discovery, Shi Zheng nodded, "This is indeed a good way to make money. However, the second method is actually the worst strategy, and it doesn't need to be so laborious. There is still a lot of fresh water in this world.

Although it cannot be said to be inexhaustible, the source of water is still enough until our monster race is fully grown. "

Everyone pricked up their ears, listening to the guidance of the Demon Emperor.

Even Yuan Chiyu looked at Shi Zheng, blinked his eyes, and waited for Shi Zheng to solve the riddle with great interest.

Shi Zheng said: "You all come with me, I will show you the third method." After finishing speaking, he left the throne and flew out first.

The crowd followed.

As Shi Zheng headed north, the temperature kept dropping, and white snow and ice gradually appeared on the ground, and finally glaciers appeared in front of everyone.

"Recite the mountain-moving mantra and move the glacier back to another one, which is enough for Luzhou in Beiju for a year." Shi Zheng said.

"Isn't this frozen sea water? It's salty so you can't drink it, and you can't irrigate the land." Huang Shijing said disappointedly.

Shi Zheng thought to himself, you really lack scientific literacy, it seems that he has to start writing a basic science textbook, and then teach the city residents through live broadcast every day.

"When the sea water freezes, the salt will be precipitated automatically, so these glaciers are all fresh water."

Glaciers account for more than 70.00% of the world's fresh water resources.

Although this world does not know how many there are, it will never be too few.

Human beings do not have the ability to move mountains and fill seas. Without rain, they are trapped to death.

But who is he?

He is a powerful demon emperor, and it is no problem to carry a few icebergs.

"If you fly at full speed, it will take about a quarter of an hour from the city to the glacier. If you carry weight, it will be slower, but you can fly back in two or three quarters of an hour."

Shi Zheng thought of one more thing to do. In the future, he would unify the division of weights and measures and time.

Great Immortal Hu Li said happily: "Take the iceberg back, put it in the dry river, let it melt, and then there will be water resources to irrigate the land."

Shi Zheng warned: "Don't carry too much back, be careful of flooding."

Egret guessed: "I suspect that the gods in the heavens don't know that these ice cubes are fresh water. Just like us before, we all thought that these ice cubes were frozen sea water and salty."

Shi Zheng nodded, "It's possible."

"You really know everything, know everything." Huang Shijing said from the bottom of his heart.

"Actually, it's okay, and I don't know much."

In fact, so many years have passed, and a lot of knowledge has been returned to the teacher, and I really haven't left much.

Yuan Chiyu said worriedly: "But Heaven knows that if we move the iceberg, will it melt the iceberg?"

Everyone else got nervous too.

Shi Zheng raised his eyebrows, "Not only do we have glaciers in the north, but we also have glaciers in the Antarctic, and there are more glaciers there. If we really want to melt all these glaciers, the sea level will rise by at least twenty or thirty feet. All the human races in Buzhou were wiped out, but our monster race can survive."
