After returning from Shushan, Li Chong hid the First Emperor's jade that Jing Ke had given him deep in the Nine Tails Space. Li Chong did not dare to be careless about this item that unlocked the First Emperor's treasure. This was not only an adventure.
It is also a huge responsibility. The moment I took over the jade, I had taken over the great hope and expectation given by the First Emperor. But this was also Li Chong’s hope and expectation. Li Chong believed that he would definitely
Can fulfill the expectations of this eternal emperor.
Looking at the huge Chang'an City in the distance, Li Chong felt great hope in his heart. The human race would surely prosper, martial arts would prosper, and the hopes of countless human emperors would surely be realized.
Zhenguan entered Chang'an City. Now that the Land and Water Conference was approaching, Li Chong knew that Guanyin, who had been living outside Chang'an City for a long time, would definitely come to Chang'an City to enlighten the golden cicada to learn Buddhist scriptures and build momentum for the journey to the west. Moreover, this kind of opportunity to promote Buddhism would definitely not be missed.
I'll let it go.
However, Li Chong did not intend to let him enter the city so easily. Looking at the guard at the city gate, Li Chong walked quickly.
After revealing his identity, the general who defended the city stood by with a respectful expression. Looking at the soldiers who defended the city, Li Chong said with a calm and majestic expression.
"After today, if any monks enter the city, they must strictly check the ultimatum. If there is no ultimatum, they will be asked to hand over five thousand taels. Otherwise, they will not be allowed to enter the city. If there are any intruders, they will be killed without mercy."
"yes!"
The general who defended the city responded loudly. Although he looked confused, as a soldier, he had to obey orders, especially in the face of the newly promoted King Langya. The general who defended the city did not dare to disobey in the slightest.
After defeating the Tibetan envoy like a rainbow, the news about Yang Wei's foreign country has spread throughout the Tang Dynasty. Facing this young and powerful martial sage, the guard admired him extremely.
Guanyin considers herself to be a powerful Buddhist sect and will definitely not care about human ultimatums. As for these five thousand taels, your cassock and tin staff are not worth so much. Hum. Li Chong snorted coldly in his heart and strode back to the mansion to wait for the Land and Water Conference.
was held.
In a void outside Chang'an City, Guanyin looked at Chang'an City in the distance, with a trace of sadness in his solemn expression. On that day, the Confucian scholars bowed three times, and the great righteousness of the world gathered in Chang'an, forcing him to withdraw from Chang'an City. This was very important to him.
It was a great shame and humiliation for me, but now faced with the awe-inspiring righteousness and powerful dynasty luck that filled Chang'an City, I was even more at a loss.
If you force your way in, you will definitely be seriously injured by the Luck Golden Dragon and the great scholars in the city.
Regarding the human race that she had always looked down upon before, Guanyin had to admit in her heart that she had miscalculated, and she began to really take it seriously.
"Bodhisattva, this city is full of purple energy soaring into the sky and golden dragons are soaring. I'm afraid it's hard for my true body to come down!"
Looking at Chang'an City like the scorching sun, Muzha said with a worried expression.
"You and I gather our magic power, lower our cloud heads, and enter through the city gate!"
Guanyin calmed down her sadness and said solemnly.
"Follow the Bodhisattva's will."
Suddenly, two wandering monks appeared outside the gate of Chang'an City. The old monk was wearing tattered cassocks and a bald head. The young monk was also covered in filth and tatters. The two looked at the city gate calmly and walked towards the city gate.
"Both of you, please show me the certificate issued by the Tang Dynasty to prove your identity."
Seeing the two monks approaching, the general guarding the city straightened up and shouted.
"An ultimatum?"
After hearing the officer's words, Guanyin Bodhisattva and Guanyin Bodhisattva's expressions condensed. How could they have this thing? How could this human thing be allowed to enter their eyes? But now that the situation is stronger than human beings, what should they do?
Seeing the expressions on the two men's faces, the general guarding the city's expression condensed, his whole body's aura was straightened, and a killing power burst out, and he shouted at the two men.
"According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, the monks of Wu Du Dou must return to secular life, otherwise they will not be killed. Today you have a noble person to help you. If Wu Du Dou hands over five thousand taels, you can get rid of the disaster and enter the city."
The shouts of the city guard general immediately changed the expressions of Guanyin and Muzha. Five thousand taels, ordinary things, how could they have such a discerning eye, and a cassock and a tin staff in their hands, which were of such value, how could they let such mortals
Use. And when did the two of them be forced like this by a little mortal? If the immortals and Buddhas in the world knew about it, what a shame and humiliation this city would have.
Before Guanyin could make any move, Muzha looked furious and was about to release his magic power to teach these ant-like humans a lesson. However, when his magic power came upon him, the Luck Golden Dragon above Chang'an City glanced disdainfully.
He glanced at him and his aura relaxed slightly.
Mu Zha suddenly felt a huge divine power, like thousands of mountains, crashing down from the sky above Chang'an City. His face turned pale, and his energy and blood surged.
"You are so bold and evil, you dare to offend our dynasty!"
Seeing Mu Zha's reaction just now, the general who defended the city immediately knew the identity of this person. He shook his spear in his hand and shouted loudly. Then there was a neat roar of footsteps from behind the city gate, and the defenders all over the city quickly gathered at the gate.
A powerful evil spirit rising to the sky suddenly emerged.
"snort!"
Seeing this reaction, Guanyin roared angrily, picked up the wood and disappeared suddenly.
Nowadays, the city of Chang'an has been closed down due to its luck, hundreds of millions of people have gathered their willpower, and the heaven and earth are filled with righteousness. There is no room for even a trace of immortal and Buddha magic power to break through. If it does not get the royal family's approval and permission, the suppressed soul will be shattered, and it will never be able to stand up for eternity.
Moreover, just now the Bodhisattva also felt a surge of awe-inspiring righteousness coming quickly. It must be that the great scholars in the city are coming. If they are invading the human imperial city, the will power of all the people in the world will be enough to eat a pot of it. How can they dare to stay, so they have to
He snorted helplessly and turned around to leave.
"Bodhisattva, what should we do now?"
The pale Muzha asked with a somewhat depressed expression.
"I have already reached an agreement with the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, so it seems that this is all we can do."
Guanyin looked slightly angry and said helplessly.
Buddhism has an agreement with the Tang Dynasty. During the Water and Land Conference, I can have people sent by the Tang Dynasty to lead me in. However, I am a majestic quasi-sage and one of the three great Bodhisattvas of Buddhism. I have always looked down on this human race, so how can I obey the ant-like human race?
However, this is the only way it can be done now. If you let yourself forcefully break into the imperial city, you will undoubtedly seek abuse.
Feeling extremely depressed, he picked up the magic weapon in his hand, and a beam of light flew into the city.
At the same time, in the Zichen Hall of the Imperial Palace, Prime Minister Xiao Xing knelt down and said to Taizong.
"Your Majesty, people sent by Buddhism have arrived outside the city."
"Introduce it into the city and don't let it peek around."
Looking at Xiao Xing and Taizong below, he said with a commanding expression, but there was a faint ripple in his heart.
"It has begun. The Journey to the West is finally about to begin. This is where my opportunity for the Tang Dynasty comes in one fell swoop."
Xiao Xing, who followed the decree and walked out of the palace, waved the imperial decree in his hand while looking into the void, and shouted lightly.
"Imperative, His Majesty's decree, let the envoys enter the city."
As Xiao Xing spoke calmly, a golden light emitted from the imperial edict, and suddenly a gap slowly appeared in the huge white barrier of the capital. The huge golden dragon of luck that took off also slowly moved around.
Seeing this gap, the Bodhisattva looked slightly angry, but had no choice but to duck in. The moment he ducked in, the huge golden dragon of luck looked at them with a majestic expression. The aura on his body was so majestic and huge that Guanyin and Muzha did not dare to
There is no slightest movement.
However, when they entered the city, Guanyin and Muzha did not enter the palace directly. Instead, they fell into the street and walked slowly in the city holding their bright and shining cassocks, attracting many mortals as they walked.
Xiao Xing saw that the Bodhisattva did not enter the palace directly, but came to the street. He guessed that the Bodhisattva wanted to go to greet him and was building momentum for Buddhism. Although he was disdainful, he had no choice but to go and greet him.
When Xiao Xing came over, he frowned slightly when he saw this Buddhist visitor promoting Buddhist teachings in the name of selling cassocks and tin sticks. This is the land of Confucianism in the Tang Dynasty and the place where saints taught. How can evil be tolerated?
Heretics deceive people's minds.
Before he could react, a shout suddenly came from the city.
"People from outside the country dare to confuse people's hearts here!"
Following this loud shout, two white-haired and vigorous old Confucians walked slowly over. The awe-inspiring righteousness on their bodies made Guanyin's expression change. Mu Zha next to him looked even more frightened, and his whole body was like the scorching sun.
It feels like burning. I dare not look at the person coming.
Seeing the two great scholars coming, Xiao Xing immediately stepped forward to welcome Guanyin away, fearing that the two would arouse the anger of the great scholars in the city and be shouted down alive and forced to leave.
However, the behavior of the two people did not play the role of spreading the teachings. Instead, they fell into disgrace. If Xiao Xing had not been there to look after them along the way, they would have been shouted down by countless great Confucian students.
In this endless frustration, Zhongbei introduced the imperial city to discuss the land and water conference and start the journey to the west.
