Chapter 34: The monkey chants to kill
In the cell.
The Ten Kings of Hell were dumbfounded.
Especially King Yama, the corners of his mouth kept twitching.
Ok?
What happened? Sun Wukong was a little bit puzzled, so I sang a Henan Bangzi opera, and he collapsed.
Could it be that Henan Bangzi also has the effect of suppressing evil?
These old guys are all intimidated by me?
Then... I'll try again.
Thinking of this, he just opened his mouth and let out an "ow".
Look back.
Okay.
The Ten Kings of Hell, along with the little ghosts guarding the door outside, all ran away without even locking the door.
The key is still hanging in the lock.
"Why are you running? I'm addicted to drama, why shouldn't I show my support?"
Sun Wukong stood up, reached his hand through the iron bars, locked the prison door, and put the key in his arms.
Sit cross-legged at the door and start singing.
"Mr. Joseph, please sit down and listen to me.
Carpenter, when you got married, you married Maria.
She got pregnant before she even got married, and she knew you had something in mind, ahhh, ahhh, ahhh, ahhh, ahhh, ahhh…
Who is the child's father? You can't sleep every night.
This child was originally created by the gods, and then he went to the underground from his mother's womb. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey..."
……
Eighteen levels of hell.
Ksitigarbha closed his eyes and never dared to check on Sun Wukong again.
He kept chanting the Heart Purification Mantra.
After a full quarter of an hour, I finally calmed down.
Just as I opened my eyes, I heard ghosts howling and wolves howling outside. There were chaotic footsteps and shouting from time to time.
He quickly listened, and heard the ghost outside the door shouting:
"Ah!!! I want to go to the 18th level of hell. I can't stand the first level. Please, let me in."
"I want to go in too, let us in quickly."
"I can't stand it anymore. This is such a bullshit scripture. It makes me feel worse than death."
"My head is about to explode after listening to it."
Ksitigarbha was shocked.
I thought to myself, I don’t know where that monkey got this evil scripture from.
Even I, a poor monk, felt a wave of emotion when I heard this.
Hula la.
The sound of footsteps came.
Led by King Yama, the other nine kings of hell also rushed into the eighteen levels of hell.
Seeing Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, they bowed and said, "Bodhisattva, please think of a solution quickly. That monkey is trying to clear out hell."
"Yes, Bodhisattva, if you don't take action now, you will really become a Buddha."
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva once made a great vow that he would not become a Buddha until hell was empty.
"Buddha, that monkey kept chanting nonsense. When I heard it, my whole body trembled and I wanted to vomit."
"Me too."
Ksitigarbha was suddenly in trouble.
He was also disgusting.
What the hell is this.
Just recite the scriptures and he will sing.
He also sang in a weird accent.
Who can bear this.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva pondered for a moment, then recalled the words that Tathagata had said through secret transmission, and said, "I have already said it.
The Buddha has issued a decree.
The matter of the Book of Life and Death needs to be settled quickly.
Otherwise, the Heaven will investigate the underworld together with me, Buddha.
By then, there will naturally be no trouble in the underworld, but the person in charge of the underworld will probably have to be replaced.
In addition, the matter has already become public and we must get to the bottom of it.
This is also... the reason why someone used supreme magical powers to capture the monkey and bring it back to the underworld."
The underworld is jointly managed by Buddhism and Taoism.
The various forces are competing with each other and the relationship is very complicated.
But there's no problem in killing a few chickens and scaring the monkeys.
"Buddha, we all prosper together and suffer together. If they really investigate, even if you can keep yourself out of it, it will affect your reputation. You should think of a way."
The King of Wheels.
Ksitigarbha suddenly fell silent.
I thought to myself, this is not going to be easy.
I don't know if the monkey is really stupid or just pretending to be stupid. He doesn't resist or complain.
Just stay in the cell.
It is simply impossible to ask him to burn the Book of Life and Death.
Difficult to handle.
"What do you think, is that monkey really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?" asked Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
King Taishan said: "I don't know if he is really stupid or not, but I know he is not afraid of death, it seems that he has really seen through life and death."
"Yes, he didn't resist at all."
"We accused him and threatened him, but he didn't say a word."
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said: "This boy is so lazy, it is absolutely impossible to expect him to burn the Book of Life and Death. We have to frame him for it."
"How to plant it?"
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva waved his hand and said, "Come closer, this and that..."
……
cell.
After Sun Wukong sang two sections, he was done with acting.
So he leaned against the wall and fell asleep.
Not long after, a series of footsteps were heard.
When I opened my eyes, I saw rows of little ghosts walking towards me, holding something that looked like a pile of account books.
Everyone showed fear on their faces.
The first little devil walked to the cell, put down the account book in his hand, and knelt down.
"Master Sun, please spare my life. I have never done anything evil in my life. Please don't recite the sutras."
The others also knelt down one after another, "Please, Master Sun, have mercy on me."
Ah? Henan Bangzi is so lethal? Sun Wukong was surprised. This is great. When I go west to seek Buddhist scriptures, I can recite scriptures just like Tang Seng.
When I see a monster, I recite scriptures. No, I sing scriptures.
The more Sun Wukong thought about it, the funnier it became, and he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
After laughing for a while, he asked, "Why are you here?"
"We are sending books to you, old man."
"Send a book? Is it the Book of Life and Death?"
"Yes."
That’s not right. Sun Wukong felt more and more puzzled. What on earth had happened in the underworld?
First, the Ten Kings of Hell knelt down and begged me.
Now the Book of Life and Death is sent here again.
They have used all the tricks of frame-up before, they won’t use it again.
Then I thought again, it doesn’t matter, let’s see how many tricks they have.
"come in."
"Yes."
The little ghost picked up the Book of Life and Death and walked to the cell. Seeing that it was still locked, he turned around and said, "Hurry and find Judge Cui to get the key to the cell."
The Ten Kings of Hell, hiding in the dark behind, were touching his body all over.
"Where's the key?"
"You're holding it, aren't you?"
"Where are my keys?"
They were groping up and down, searching intently, when they suddenly heard the sound of iron chains rattling.
When he looked up, he saw Sun Wukong standing in the cell. He took out the key from his arms, opened the chain and waved his hand: "Come in, come in."
The little ghosts outside the door were all dumbfounded.
Sun Wukong glared and said, "Are you still going in?"
"Oh oh oh."
The little ghosts filed in, put down their books of life and death, and walked out.
The last little ghost put down the Book of Life and Death, glanced back at Sun Wukong, and suddenly a ball of blue ghost fire appeared in his hand.
There was a boom.
The Book of Life and Death burst into flames.
The little ghost screamed "Ah" and jumped into the sea of fire.
Looking at the blazing fire in the cell, King Yama couldn't help but laugh and said, "Everyone, this is good, the fire is on."
Sun Wukong stayed in the cell.
The book of life and death in the cell was burned.
Even if a powerful person here could figure this out, he could still put the blame on Sun Wukong.
"Well, the matter is finally settled." King Qin Guang breathed a sigh of relief.
"This is good for everyone."
"Haha, from now on, our underworld will be a clean place again."
"Brothers, let's go have a couple of drinks."
"Okay."
The fire in the cell was still burning fiercely.
