Chapter 598: Set up the first difficulty of the ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties

Immortals and gods value very few things, but as long as they value it, face is often more important than life and death.

I have embarrassed the Bodhisattva several times today, and Muzha was obviously looking for trouble just now. If I can't protect myself, there are some means waiting for me.

However, after thinking about it, Shi Zhongkui realized that he was not the rookie who was not even an immortal but only a third-generation disciple.

As a fourth-grade heavenly official, he is indeed inferior in grade to Bodhisattva, one of the five elders, but he cannot lose face.

If you invite Jiuling Yuansheng here, it will be a sign of weakness.

It seems that he is afraid of Western religions and Bodhisattvas. Not only will Laojun and Master Taiyi have objections, but his subordinates will definitely be timid before fighting when facing Western religions in the future.

Moreover, it will also fuel the arrogance of Western religions. Not only will there be more means of revenge, but the Bodhisattvas will also be more calm in their calculations.

When obvious flaws are exposed, there will naturally be more targeted calculations.

In just a moment, Shi Zhongkui planned to take the initiative.

Since the most important task of Western religions at this time is to ensure that people travel westward to learn Buddhist scriptures, then we should work hard on this.

Along the way to the west, there were many secret hands planned by Western religions and the great powers of the Three Realms.

Just wait for the team to gather the scriptures to take shape and overcome the ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties to earn luck and merit.

Shi Zhongkui shook his head at Taiwei Zhang, and directly used the art of secluded to forcefully recruit the land that had been driven out. After comforting and rewarding him, he took the Fourth Lieutenant home.

After seeing the Lion and Camel King, the Bull Demon King and the Black Bear Spirit, he directly ordered the three of them to wait outside the border of Hezhou Wei and Tang Dynasty.

Tang Monk went west out of the customs. If he just walked out of the Tang Dynasty, he would be blocked.

Or he might be captured by demons, not to mention delaying it for three to five years, but would imprison Tang Monk for three to five months. The safekeeping would make the Bodhisattva and Western religions anxious to compromise.

If the Western Sect dared to order people to conquer the Lion Camel King, Bull Demon King and Black Bear Spirit, then the difficulty of this level would definitely be comparable to the three demon kings of the Lion Camel Ridge: the green-haired lion monster, the yellow-tusked old elephant, and the Dapeng Golden-winged Eagle.

In Journey to the West, the Lion and Camel King appears very rarely. When he first appeared, he was just a golden immortal. He could only fight Sun Wukong for dozens of rounds.

But five hundred years later, not only did the Lion and Camel King surrender five hundred years ago, but he also broke through to Taiyi Golden Immortal and caught up with Sun Wukong in cultivation.

The black bear spirit actually fought with Sun Wukong from day to night. Although the monkey didn't use all his strength, the black bear spirit's force was still not low.

Not to mention the Bull Demon King, Sun Wukong would not be able to defeat the Bull Demon King alone.

These three people surrendered to Shi Zhongkui five hundred years ago. Over the years, their strength has already reached a higher level.

Not to mention that Jiuling Yuan Sheng also taught him every three days, and even beat the Lion and Camel King and the Black Bear King. The martial arts of both of them improved a lot.

When the Western Cult captured the Golden-winged Dapeng, they sent countless Arhats and laid a dragnet, but in the end he escaped. Tathagata had no choice but to take action himself, and then he subdued the Golden-winged Dapeng.

Replacing the lion camel king, bull demon king and black bear spirit would definitely require a lot of manpower.

This first difficulty was so difficult that Tang Monk might have directly shaken his desire to learn scriptures. It was possible.

Moreover, if the lion and camel king, the bull demon king and the black bear spirit cannot stop the people of the Western religion, Shi Zhongkui will immediately invite Master Taiyi or Taishang Laojun.

Even asking for a decree from the Jade Emperor, he could easily bring the three of them back to heaven.

You don't even need to be punished.

If the Western Sect really wants to punish them, then it can be said that from now on, if any chess piece arranged by the Western Sect blocks the four masters and disciples of Tang Seng and is defeated, Shi Zhongkui can also demand a heavy punishment.

Even if he forcibly conquered these people as the demon-suppressing governor, no one could oppose him in name.

After hearing the order, the lion camel king, the bull demon king and the black bear spirit were naturally a little confused.

Fortunately, the three of them were not stupid. Shi Zhongkuiming said that he wanted to transform into a monster with an animal head and human body, making it clear who he was looking for trouble.

Moreover, even the unfamiliar immortals and gods would not be able to recognize their identities due to their ghostly appearance.

The three of them were ordered to go west to the outside of Datang Pass. As soon as they flew out of Chang'an City, the Bull Demon King called to the Lion and Camel King and the Black Bear Demon to stop them.

"Two good brothers, what I ordered you must be plotting against someone."

The lion camel king and the black bear spirit looked at each other and guessed that the old cow wanted to be the boss among the three of them.

You should at least set the order first, so that if something happens, you won't start a fuss on your side first.

The Lion and Camel King thought about how he had become a sworn sworn brother to the Bull Demon King back then, and had been a colleague of Lao Niu for hundreds of years. This guy was indeed full of evil ideas.

He smiled and cupped his hands and said, "Brother, if you have anything to say, feel free to say it. As long as it is beneficial to what the master tells you, the black man and I will listen to you."

The black bear spirit nodded indifferently. He was defeated by the lion and camel king back then and had to surrender to the master.

In terms of status, he is naturally lower than the Lion and Camel King.

As for the Bull Demon King, Black Bear Spirit thinks that he is still a little inferior to Lao Niu in terms of martial arts. In addition, the Bull Demon King does have many clever ideas, so there is no point in listening to him first.

When the Bull Demon King saw both of them nodding, he was secretly happy, "Two worthy brothers, although our strength is not weak, there are so-called three gangs of heroes. If we find more people to obey orders, we can better complete the tasks assigned by the master.

And we can't always pry for information. The three of us are responsible for following people. We might as well find some little demons or familiar helpers to come and help.

After the work is done, just send more gold, silver and meat to repay the favor."

The Bull Demon King has no shortage of money since he took in the Jade Faced Vixen. The Lion and Camel King and the Black Bear Demon don't care so much about money, but they have been working under Shi Zhongkui for more than five hundred years, so they have no shortage of money for a long time.

Not to mention a few thousand taels of silver, even if they gave away tens of thousands taels of silver, neither of them would blink an eye.

As for whether the demon clan in the human world wants gold and silver, you will know how greedy the Bull Demon King and his wife and the Bull Demon King's younger brother Ruyi Zhenxian are.

——

After Shi Zhongkui released the three Bull Demon Kings, he did not continue to cause trouble for the Bodhisattva. He allowed her to make a big fuss at the waterway meeting, saying in front of the people, the emperor and ministers that Hinayana Buddhism could not save the souls of the dead and could not save all living beings from suffering.

Only Mahayana Buddhism can "cultivate the body of infinite life, and can do things without coming and going".

The people, monks and Tang monks bowed their heads in fright. Emperor Tang and the ministers did not dare to refute, and could only look at Shi Zhongkui, who was sitting next to Emperor Tang.

Shi Zhongkui said with a smile, "I often listen to the teachings of my mentor Taiyi Zhenren that there is indeed a Tripitaka of Mahayana Buddhism in Xitian Lingshan, which can help you escape suffering and live a long life without deterioration."

Li Shimin's face tightened when he heard that he could live a long life without harm, and asked hurriedly, "Have you ever heard of a good son-in-law?"

Shi Zhongkui shook his head and said with a look of disgust, "I am a true disciple of Xuanmen. I often listen to the sermons of the teacher and the Supreme Master. I can't even recite the three or two volumes of Huang Ting quietly. There is no need to read any side sects."
