Block the door directly

After lifting up Jiang Liu'er, who bowed deeply to him again, Shi Zhongkui took a closer look at Jiang Liu'er's appearance, and soon discovered that the child didn't look like him.

Just because her face is as bright as the full moon, she has inherited Miss Yin’s genes.

A beautiful woman can be born with a big face, and in ancient times, this kind of face was actually a blessing.

When a man looks like this, when he is an official, he looks more majestic when he sits in the hall and straightens his face.

The woman also appears richer and more approachable, but has a melon-shaped face and is often said to be a foxy woman.

Of course, whether you have a round face or an oval-shaped face, if your facial features are not soft and coordinated, then your face will look crooked.

Shi Zhongkui thought about how Miss Yin had often lamented recently that she didn't know whether her child was alive or dead, and he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart.

He smiled and said to Jiang Liu'er, "Master is so extraordinary. Are you willing to leave a portrait and give it to me as a souvenir?"

Jiang Liu'er originally felt that he and Shi Zhongkui had an unknown closeness, and he was only asked to draw a portrait, so how could he refuse.

The eminent monks around were even more delighted.

Everyone mistakenly thought that Shi Zhongkui was taking the initiative to get close to Buddhism. Considering his status as consort and the ‘former protector of the country’, this was definitely a good thing.

A class leader with a gray beard said, "Today we will invite eminent monks who are good at calligraphy and painting to paint a full-length portrait of Master Xuanzang during the Waterway Conference and send it to the consort's home."

In order to avoid outsiders' suspicion, Shi Zhongkui said with a smile in just a few seconds, "Since it was someone who raised this matter, it has indeed delayed all the eminent monks. Tomorrow, someone will send another thousand stones of polished rice and ten carts of melon and fruit wine."

In the precepts of ancient temples, it is clearly stated that monks are prohibited from "greedy drinking", but it is not an absolute prohibition on drinking. However, the term "vegetarian wine" is actually made up by many novels.

Most people understand it as wine made from fruits.

Moreover, this is the world of Journey to the West. When Monk Tang went west to learn Buddhist scriptures, although he did not drink "vegetarian wine", he did not prohibit Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Monk Sha from drinking it.

In other words, 'vegetarian wine' is not only available among the people, but monks are also allowed to drink it.

The smiles on the faces of many monks suddenly became brighter.

One thousand stones of polished rice is equivalent to about 120,000 catties. Although it is converted into silver, it is only four to five hundred taels, but it is enough for all the monks and tutu during the Waterway Conference.

If it were all given to one temple, it would be enough for a year.

The monks are naturally happy to be able to save money, not to mention that with Shi Zhongkui as an example, the enthusiasm of the faithful men and women in Chang'an City to donate money and materials will definitely be higher in the future.

Shi Zhongkui not only achieved his goal of asking for a portrait to appease Miss Yin, but also saw that Jiang Liuer was more and more supported by the monks, which meant that his own son could live a better life, so he naturally laughed.

Besides, the monks who win over these ordinary people, who are obsessed with Bodhisattvas and Western religions, would be happy to pay not to mention a few hundred taels of silver, but even tens of thousands of taels.

Supported by Jiang Liu'er and many monks, Shi Zhongkui did not go home directly after leaving Huasheng Temple. Instead, he sent a magic talisman to the Royal Horse Prison to summon Zhang, Ge, Xu, Qiu Si Taiwei, Shitu Wang, and Niu.

The Demon King, the Black Bear Spirit and the Nine-Headed Insect descended to earth.

Then he took Zhang, Ge, Xu and Qiu Taiwei to the Tutu Temple occupied by the Bodhisattva.

The Lion and Camel King and others stayed at home to prevent anyone from the Western Church from taking action against the Three Holy Mothers and other female relatives.

However, Shi Zhongkui's exploration of Chang'an City these days found that it was probably the Bodhisattva who personally took over the task of guarding the pilgrims, and actually only took Muzha with him.

Moreover, there are so many Arhats and novice monks in Western teachings, but no one comes to obey their orders.

To put it bluntly, Shi Zhongkui was guarding against Mu Zha.

As for the Bodhisattva, he was sure that if the Bodhisattva really dealt with him, he would not attack his female relatives first.

——

The Bodhisattva took Muzha back to the Earth Temple where he was temporarily staying. On the pretext that it was getting late, he told Muzha not to disturb him from doing his homework.

Muzha is not stupid, so he can't tell that the Bodhisattva is really angry.

I bowed obediently to the Bodhisattva and left the Earth Temple.

I was bored for a while, and the more I thought about it, the more angry I became.

Secretly, if Shi Zhongkui hadn't caused mischief one after another, how could the Bodhisattva have turned his anger on himself.

But when he wanted to go to the Shi family mansion, he could talk to Shi Zhongkui for an argument.

As soon as he walked out of the Tutu Temple, he saw Shi Zhongkui accompanied by four captains from the Four Heavenly Masters' Mansion. He said to himself with a smile, "Why, the traveler is temporarily living in Chang'an. Why does he live in the Tutu Temple instead of the Bodhisattva's Zen Courtyard?"

Mu Zha lost all his temper in an instant.

He was even more afraid that Shi Zhongkui would enter the Earth Temple and cause trouble to the Bodhisattva.

Even Muzha didn't dare to let Shi Zhongkui enter the Earth Temple, lest the news that his master and apprentice were hiding here would spread.

But Shi Zhongkui alone was already a Taiyi Golden Immortal, and Mu Zha suddenly felt uneasy.

Fighting alone, not even Shi Zhongkui can beat him.

Coupled with the four Taiyi Golden Immortal Taiwei, even if Bodhisattva takes action together, there is a high probability that Shi Zhongkui will not be able to teach him a lesson.

In the world of Journey to the West, the positioning of martial arts is not just proficiency in fighting, but also includes magical powers, spells and weapons.

Without the golden cudgel, Sun Wukong's strength immediately dropped a lot. He didn't even dare to fight and could only run away.

Seeing how Bodhisattva dealt with Sun Wukong, Black Bear Spirit and Red Boy using tricks, we know that a person with strong martial arts skills can fight with an opponent whose cultivation level is higher than his own.

In Fengshen and Journey to the West, cultivation is often ignored and only martial arts, supernatural powers and magic weapons are discussed.

When Yang Jian became a god, he made people with higher cultivation than him suffer big losses more than once.

He even relied on the Eight-nine Mysterious Techniques to bear the Heavenly Seal without getting hurt.

Shi Zhongkui's own cultivation level is not at all inferior to that of Yang Jian. Although he is still not as proficient in fighting as Yang Jian, he has a lot of treasures in his possession. In a real fight, he is not afraid of Yang Jian at all.

On the contrary, Yang Jian and Sun Wukong were even more afraid of the Universe Diagram and the Nine-Dragon Divine Fire Shield in his hands.

Needless to say about the Qiankun Diagram, Sun Wukong was almost captured by this treasure five hundred years ago.

When the Kowloon Divine Fire was used to enshrine the gods, Taiyi Zhenren used it to burn Empress Shiji to death. After truly trapping Sun Wukong and Yang Jian, it should be no problem to deal with them both.

When Sun Wukong is in the Bagua furnace, he is not really afraid of Laojun's civil and military fire, the six-ding-liu-jia divine fire and the true fire of samadhi.

Otherwise, he would not have been burned by Red Boy and would have had to run away.

If a person of Bodhisattva's status was not paying attention and was bumped into by the Fourth Lieutenant and Shi Zhongkui, or hit with magic, then it would be Bodhisattva who was embarrassed.

As for Mu Zha, he will definitely be beaten severely.

Mu Zha thought about it carefully and felt that even if he went to find Qi Jinzha and Nezha brothers afterwards, his three brothers would be beaten in the end.

Even after calling Wei Hu, Tu Xingsun and his biological father Li Jing, Shi Zhongkui could also call the Lion Camel King, Bull Demon King, Black Bear Spirit and Nine-Headed Insect.

The nine Taiyi Golden Immortals take action, against the six on their side, and the other five are just Golden Immortals, the outcome will definitely be even worse.

Besides, whether biological father Li Jing and third brother Nezha will help remains another matter.
