"But later, the Bull Demon King came to me again, saying that his son, young and playful, accidentally ate the sealed Jade Pendant of Heavenly Punishment, and was thus penetrated by the Heavenly Punishment. He asked me to help resolve the situation."
He smiled, shook his head and said, "Although I have three ways to solve it, the time is not right, so I refused."
Speaking of the past, Taishang Laojun added, "Now, the Heavenly Punishment has disappeared. I think it has been broken. The remnant of the Fire Evil has taken over Red Boy's body and is probably fighting against Red Boy's original body."
Everyone was confused after hearing this.
If that's the case, then we're in big trouble.
If Red Boy lets Fire Evil take over his body, the ancient mighty will take over his body and be reborn, and it is very likely that there will be another great devil in the Three Realms.
It is extremely detrimental to the rule of Heaven.
and.
The most urgent task now is Bull Demon King. If he breaks into the cave in the Quicksand River in a fit of rage and kills Shachen, it will ruin the plan of obtaining the scriptures.
Everyone understood the seriousness of the matter, so they looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Li Jing and the other two looked at each other and were stunned. It turned out that they really misunderstood.
This is not just a collaboration between Shachen and Bull Demon King. There is really a reason behind this, and it involves ancient saints.
Li Jing said, "Since this matter is related to Laojun, and Laojun is the only one who can solve it, why not ask Laojun to take action, capture Huoxie, and then repel Niu Mowang."
Upon hearing this, all the ministers nodded.
This seems to be the easiest way.
but.
Just finished speaking.
The Supreme Lord disappeared without a trace, and simply smiled and said, "I am just an old man who knows how to make elixirs, and I am not tainted by the dust of the world."
Everyone's cheeks twitched. It was clearly his fault, but they had to clean up the mess.
But they didn't dare to say anything.
The Jade Emperor also had a headache, and it was indeed the easiest to solve the problem if Taishang Laojun took action personally.
However, Taishang Laojun refused to take action. He knew the reason, probably to avoid suspicion and to avoid being involved in the cause and effect of this matter.
After all, Shachen and Bull Demon King are both the ones who will be borne the calamity of the journey to the West, especially Shachen, who is the best candidate to obtain the scriptures.
All the people involved are crucial.
Both Buddhism and Heaven want the Bull Demon King and Shachen.
If Laojun takes action, he will definitely take the consequences upon himself.
You subdued the fire evil and saved Red Boy. Logically speaking, shouldn't you be grateful?
According to Bull Demon King's character, he always wanted to become my disciple.
Now that he has been saved by Taishang Laojun, he will definitely bring his whole family to become his disciple.
Laojun had refused in the past, which meant that he didn't want the Bull Demon King, and naturally he didn't want to be disturbed.
Secondly.
Saving Red Boy also resolved the sandstorm crisis.
Shachen, it's not too much to express your gratitude, right?
It is even possible that Shachen also wanted to become Laojun's disciple, or was grateful to him, which might have disrupted the Buddhist and Heavenly Court's mission of obtaining the scriptures.
After all, he is the one who is going to obtain the scriptures, and he is grateful to you, a Taoist saint, and wants to become his disciple.
Where is the face of Buddhism?!
not to mention.
During the Conferred Gods period, Laozi asked the two saints from the West to deal with the Master of Heaven, as he owed a favor to the Buddhist sect.
He also played a role in causing the disaster during this journey to obtain the scriptures, so this can be considered as repaying a favor.
If he interferes too much, it will not be good for him and will easily lead to misunderstandings among Buddhists that he has ulterior motives.
It will also stimulate the returned Tongtian Sect Master.
We are fellow disciples, so why do you keep helping outsiders?!
In order to avoid a series of causal troubles, Laojun’s best choice is not to take action.
The Jade Emperor was helpless and ordered, "Li Jing, I order you to bring a million heavenly soldiers and generals to the mortal world and stand by. Wang Lingguan and Wen Zhong will assist them. If the Bull Demon King breaks through the Quicksand River and clashes with the Sand Dust, choose the right moment to intervene."
Li Jing asked, "Your Majesty, when is the right time?"
The Jade Emperor glared at him and said, "Just do what's convenient for you."
Li Jing took the order and went down with a smile on his face.
He just waited for the Jade Emperor to "take advantage of the situation". Then he could choose the best time to save Shachen and make Shachen grateful.
His position as the old Taishan is now secure!
South China Sea, Luojia Mountain.
Mu Zha said, "Master, the Bull Demon King has attacked the Flowing Sand River."
Guanyin said, "I understand."
Mu Zha wanted to say something, but when he found that Guanyin had disappeared, he was shocked.
"Master is still too concerned about Shachen. However, she did not ask Manjushri and Samantabhadra for help this time because she was afraid that she would not be able to defeat the Bull Demon King."
Guanyin did not go to invite Manjushri and Samantabhadra, but she went to find Kasyapa and Ananda.
Tathagata has already handed over the matter to his two disciples, Kasyapa and Ananda, and Guanyin only has the right to assist in the matter of the Quicksand River.
She knew that Kashyapa and Ananda didn't care much about the dust, and if she didn't remind them, they probably wouldn't pay any attention.
The great disciple Kashyapa was not there, only Ananda was preaching the Buddha to the monks.
When Guanyin reported this, Ananda said, "This is just a small matter. You can do as you see fit."
Guanyin frowned and said, "Venerable Ananda, the Bull Demon King is extremely powerful. If he kills Shachen by mistake, it will ruin the Buddha's plan."
Ananda then said, "Then stop the Bull Demon King."
Guanyin said: "With my strength, I am afraid I am no match for him if I fight alone."
Ananda glanced at her and said, "I see. You haven't eliminated that difficulty yet? Well, let me accompany you!"
"By the way, let me take a look at the man who asked the Buddha to personally intervene in the pilgrimage. What kind of person is he?"
