Although the emperor was mentally prepared for the changes in Miaojiang, after talking with the fox girl, he was surprised to find that he knew too little about Miaojiang!

According to the fox spirit girl, in Miaojiang, no matter whether they are men or women, young or old, human or demon, they must first receive a certain level of education and be able to read, write, and do accounting before they can be considered graduated. And only when they pass the exams in these subjects and get their diplomas can they find a job.

Moreover, unlike in Shenzhou, what is taught here is not just the Four Books and Five Classics, but a wide variety of subjects including astronomy, geography, music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.

The way laws are enforced and punished here is also very different from elsewhere.

The mixture of humans and demons did cause a lot of trouble, and initially in Miaojiang, there were also many murderers who killed people without a trace, or some demons who liked to eat people gathered here. After these people and demons were caught, those who committed serious crimes were naturally chopped off.

But in Miaojiang, it is not as simple as just beheading the criminals as a public display. Not only that, they will also post a notice after beheading the criminals and conduct a second round of "spiritual trial".

The so-called "Spirit Trial" is a live broadcast of the final outcome of the souls of prisoners in hell!

That’s right, in Miaojiang, “you will go to hell after you die” or “you will never die well” is not just an empty phrase, but a real thing! People can watch the final punishment of the souls of sinners by the Ten Kings of Hell at designated locations!

Although this is limited to criminals who were tried and executed in Miaojiang, it still has a great deterrent effect. After all, people did not have a clear concept of what would happen to them after they died. Many criminals believed that "death is the end of the world" and did not care what kind of judgment they would receive in the underworld. That was because they did not know, did not care, and even had some fluke mentality - what if the standards in the underworld were different from those in the human world?

The "live trial" that is currently being held has obviously completely eliminated the criminals' mentality of taking chances. This is also the reason why in Miaojiang, many criminals are willing to reform themselves after being punished.

Those who are stubborn to the end will not have a good life in their next life. At least I have changed my ways. Even if I am not rich in my next life, at least let me be an ordinary person. Don't really make me work like a slave!

Being a cow or a horse is still good, but if you become a fly or a cricket, you are really doomed!

The emperor was amazed by this series of new things. To be honest, he couldn't imagine what it would be like to live broadcast the trial in the underworld. Unfortunately, the fox girl said that fewer and fewer people dared to do evil in the Miao area these days, and the frequency of live broadcasts in the underworld has also decreased a lot. Otherwise, he really wanted to go and see it.

Time passed by minute by minute. He tasted the unique-tasting cola, ate delicious snacks, sat on a comfortable and soft sofa, and looked at the endless sea of ​​clouds outside the window. The emperor felt that this was just like the life of a god.

Hey, the gods in heaven must be living more comfortably than this!

The emperor felt as if he had eaten a lemon, and the bitterness was about to pour out. He couldn't imagine whether he would be able to endure the boring things in the palace after returning to the capital after his trip to Miaojiang.

The sky gradually darkened, and at the same time, the lights in the cabin also lit up. Like other things, the lights here were completely different from those in the inner courtyard of the palace. There was no need for people to light lanterns one by one. Instead, the emperor only saw a few square white jade-like things on the ceiling flashing slightly, and then the lights came on, illuminating the entire cabin like daylight.

Oh, if the palace also had this thing...

The emperor now wanted to pack up the entire flying boat and take it back, but deep down in his heart, he was even more dissatisfied with Prime Minister Liang for ruining his plans.

"Gu Qing, can we communicate with Miaojiang and buy a flying boat?"

"This... I am afraid I cannot explain it, but Your Majesty, can you..."

However, before Gu Zong could finish his words, he saw the flying boat began to slowly descend. Then when it passed through the clouds again, the scene in front of him made the emperor open his eyes in surprise and stand up.

“This, this is…”

I saw a magnificent and beautiful city shining in the layers of mountains and forests below me. Although it was already night, the whole city was brightly lit. Walking by the window, I could even see the people and carriages coming and going below.

In comparison, even the capital city is not so lively and prosperous!

Seeing this, the emperor felt even more sad.

Eat lemon, I can't help it!

Fang Zheng didn't care what the emperor was thinking, because at the moment, he was doing his own thing.

"It seems that everything is going well now."

Standing on the balcony with his hands behind his back, Fang Zheng looked at the Dali city outside and whispered. Over the past year, Fang Zheng has been preparing for the battle with the gods and Buddhas in the sky and the Western Heavens, but he did not burn it down directly like he did in the previous two worlds. The reason is simple. After all, this is his hometown, and Fang Zheng also hopes to reduce the impact on this land as much as possible.

After all, no matter what Buddhism is, it has been rooted in this land for hundreds of years. It is not an easy task to uproot this shrub and burn it completely.

If it were the United States, Fang Zheng would have simply burned down heaven and North America. Who would care whether those Christians jumped off buildings or jumped into rivers after God died?

However, this year of preparation also made Fang Zheng realize that he was not fighting alone.

The Western Buddhas are obviously his enemies, and the Heavenly Court is also in cahoots with them, but there is still a piece of land that has not been occupied by these guys.

That is the underworld.

Since the beginning of the history of Shenzhou, the underworld has been in charge of the reincarnation of the living beings on this land. They have always been very low-key and just do their own things. However, when Buddhism came here, the underworld found out... Damn, they were suppressed by Buddhism!

Just like what Fang Zheng said in his previous debate with Fahai, good is rewarded with good, and evil is punished with evil. This is the law of the world. Whether you are a Buddhist or not, the world operates in this way. And the one responsible for this operation is naturally the "hell".

However, under the brainwashing of Buddhism, most mortals now have forgotten the underworld, and even think that no matter what they do, as long as they devote themselves to Buddhism, they can escape from the sea of ​​suffering and reach paradise early. Just like the example Fang Zheng mentioned, a bandit killed countless people in the first half of his life, and suddenly woke up in the second half of his life, and then he ate vegetarian food and chanted Buddha for the rest of his life to pray for the people he killed.

According to Buddhism, he can put down his butcher knife and become a Buddha right away.

But according to the laws of the underworld, you will still go to hell and reincarnate! You killed so many people, and you think you can repent by reciting Buddhist scriptures? It's impossible! Go through the eighteen levels of hell first!

Originally, no matter how these so-called "high monks" worshipped Buddha during their lifetime, they would be taken to the underworld by the Black and White Impermanence after death and judged in front of the Ten Kings of Hell. But in fact, after death, these "high monks" will be taken away directly by the messengers of the Western Heaven, and will not go to the underworld, let alone listen to the Black and White Impermanence!

MMP, do you really not consider the Black and White Impermanence as cadres?

You took away the ghosts of my subordinates. If you have the guts, why don’t you throw those wronged souls killed by Buddhism over here!

You've made it impossible for me to complete my government affairs, and you're treating the underworld as a trash can? !

MMP!

However, due to the special nature of the underworld, he was unwilling and unable to compete with Buddhism and the heaven. After all, if he pretended to be a grandson now, then the power of reincarnation was still in his hands. If he really wanted to confront the gods and Buddhas in the West, they would not just play tricks, but confront him head-on!

By that time, the underworld will probably have to recite Buddhist scriptures!

The Underworld has long been dissatisfied with the Western Heavens interfering in the internal affairs of the Underworld, but they dare not express it openly. However, if someone wants to confront the Western Heavens, the Underworld is willing to help secretly. Just like the live broadcast of the Underworld that Fang Zheng organized this time, without the consent of the Ten Kings of Hell, he couldn't do it...

Of course, the underworld would not really lend ghost soldiers to Fang Zheng to use against the Western Paradise, but it was no problem to handle such a small matter secretly, criticize Buddhism, and at the same time publicize its own presence...

Fang Zheng also had a hunch.

Perhaps before long, he would face off against the Buddhas of the Western Paradise.

And now, all we need is an opportunity.
