Honghuang: I am an iron-eating beast, and I was overheard by Houtu

Chapter 785 Time flies, Li Shimin enters the underworld (two in one)

Gun Gun returned to the wilderness with a heavy heart. If he couldn't escape, he could only reincarnate.

I remember that in the original trajectory of fate, when Wutian came to the west, he seemed to have said such a sentence to Tathagata Buddha-"Tathagata, will you go by yourself, or should I send you away?" The mess of the Three Realms was handed over to Monkey King to clean up.

It seems that I can only do this when the time comes. If he tells me to go, I will go.

"Forget it, I've already been mentally prepared for this. Reincarnation is reincarnation. Anyway, sooner or later he will return to the throne of the Emperor of Heaven. There is nothing to be afraid of." Gun Gun thought in his heart.

Then, it stepped on a thick auspicious cloud, looked at the chaotic clock in its arms, opened its mouth lightly, and chanted a spell for a while, then the chaotic clock turned into a beam of golden light and disappeared, and it put it away.

The Chaos Clock is one of the three innate treasures. It has the power to suppress the primordial world, the power to reverse the time and space of the heavens, the power to evolve the mysteries of the heavens, and the power to refine the earth, water, fire, and wind. , Rebound the attacks of any treasures and magical soldiers and the damage of all magical spells. It is equipped with both attack and defense, and stands on top of the head first.

At that time, Donghuang Taiyi was hailed as 'No.1 under the saint' because he held the Chaos Clock. Now, the Chaos Clock is in Gun Gun's hands, and it has already proved the most powerful quasi-sage. With the blessing of the forest demon body entrenched in Buzhou Mountain, it is said that it is the No. 1 under the saint, there is absolutely no problem at all!

only……

Facing the number of days, there will still be nothing to do.

When Luo Hou's true spirit returned to the prehistoric world, no matter what, he could only temporarily avoid his 33-year edge.

"Alas~" Gun Gun sighed, and then flew steadily towards the heavenly court.

……

The sun rises and the sun sets, time always passes inadvertently.

Earth time, more than 190 years later, Cao Pi, the son of Cao Cao, replaced the Han Dynasty with the Wei Dynasty, and the Han Dynasty fell!

46 years later, Sima Yan, the grandson of Sima Yi, replaced Wei with Jin, then wiped out Soochow, and unified the human race. Soon after, the human race split again, and a melee that was more terrifying than the Spring and Autumn and Warring States appeared...

300 years later, Yang Jian replaced the Northern Zhou Dynasty and established the Great Sui Dynasty. He then crusade against the Chen State, unified the north and the south, defeated the Turks, and created the Kaihuang rule.

Fourteen years after Yang Jian's death, his son Yang Guang was killed by Yu Wenhuaji in Jiangdu, and the Sui Dynasty fell.

After that, more than ten years later, at this time, the human race was under the rule of the new king, the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin. ".

However, in order to seize the throne, Li Shimin killed his brother and forced his biological father. Although he was rebellious, he charged his brother with the crime of rebellion, and even killed all his brother's heirs. This action made him often uneasy. The ghosts of Li Jiancheng and his third brother Li Yuanji came to him to claim his life. At this moment, he has been having nightmares for several months.

On this day, while he was sleeping soundly, the luck of the human king's protective body suddenly disappeared, and his soul was dragged into the underworld by two resentful souls.

……

Xitian Pure Land World.

Inside the Daxiong Palace.

Wearing a cassock, the black bear sat on the golden lotus of merit, looked down at the many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas below, and said, "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."

"The disciple is here." Ksitigarbha stood up and bowed to the black bear.

"Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, has lost his personal morality, and he has a bad heart. He is haunted by the soul of Jian Jian Yuanji, and now his soul has been dragged into the underworld. You can go and rescue him." Hei Xiong said to King Ksitigarbha.

Ksitigarbha put his palms together and asked the black bear: "My Buddha, Li Shimin murdered his brother and murdered his brother and conspired to seize the throne. There should be retribution. Since he planted the cause of karma, he should receive the result of karma. Are you really going to rescue him?"

Of course, this question is just a formality, explaining it to those Buddhist disciples with shallow cultivation.

"Of course, Li Shimin's lifespan is not over yet, so it is against God's will to fall at this time, and death is not the only way to repay the karma." As he said, Gun Gun spoke loudly to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas: "Li Shimin's son took the father's throne, so his son also Li Shimin's brother killed each other, so his son will also kill his brother, as for Li Shimin's other merits and demerits, when he is at the end of his life, the Heavenly Emperor will deal with him reasonably."

Yes, the Emperor of Heaven, not the King of Hades.

Originally, after the death of an ordinary emperor, the king of hell would judge him, and decide which one of the six reincarnations he would enter according to his merits and demerits during his lifetime. But Li Shimin is different. He is the reincarnation of Emperor Ziwei, so his soul will be judged by the emperor himself after his death. .

Of course, he is still just a mortal at this time, so there will be no less karma to experience.

Hearing the black bear's shout, all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the hall nodded their heads to express their understanding, and the Ksitigarbha King also respectfully said to it along the steps: "I understand, thank you Lord Buddha for your guidance."

"Well, let's go." Hei Xiong waved to Jizo.

"Yes." Ksitigarbha replied, and then he held a Zen stick in his hand, the Buddha's light flashed, disappeared from the hall, and returned to the underworld.

After he left, the black bear looked in the direction of Datang Chang'an.

There is a temple there called Shirokuma Temple.It is said that when the abbot of the temple was born, he was protected by divine light, and the shadow of a white bear was faintly visible, so the temple was built after he became a monk, and he was given this name.

The host is naturally Ah Bei's reincarnation——A Bei.

As the good corpse of the Underworld Emperor, Ah Bei naturally did not drink Meng Po soup when he was reincarnated, and remembered the memory of his previous life, so his name has not changed, it is still called this.

The time has come, the Buddhist scriptures are in place, monkeys, pigs, rabbits, and dragons are all there, and now we just wait for the emperor to order the Buddhist scriptures to go on the road.

"Excellent, excellent!" the black bear retracted his gaze, raised his paw, and said like a Buddha.

……

Hell.

On a dark road, there is black air on the left and right, and Li Shimin's soul is walking here with a face full of panic.

"Where is this place? I remember that I was going to bed in the palace, so why did I come here suddenly? Could it be... have Jian Jiancheng and Yuan Ji really come to look for me?" I thought very frighteningly in my heart.

"Li Shimin!"

"Li Shimin!"

"Li Shimin!!!"

Suddenly, a burst of hateful shouts mixed with two voices came from all directions, and Li Shimin's soul trembled when he heard it. He remembered, this is, this is the voice of his elder brother and third younger brother, so, the two of them A real one came to find...

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Then grabbed his left and right hands respectively, and dragged him to fly deep into the underworld.

"Li Shimin, it's time for you to repay the debt, pay me back~" Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji shouted at Li Shimin together.

Li Shimin: "..."

Who will save me?I am afraid!
As the son of heaven on horseback, Li Shimin ruled the human race and made great achievements in battle. If he encounters monsters or something, he will not be afraid. How can the king of my kingdom allow monsters to make trouble?But... the elder brother and younger brother who were killed by his own hands came to ask for their lives. He really didn't know what to do, maybe it was guilt, or maybe it was because of something else, anyway, he was very scared now.

Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji took Li Shimin all the way to the depths of the underworld, entered the Yan Luo Hall, and met the ten halls of Yan Luo who were there this time.

After seeing Li Shimin, Yan Luo of the Ten Palaces did not care as much as he did for the other emperors after death, and they all treated him politely. This made Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji very puzzled, but politeness is polite, the play that should be performed , oh no, it is the process that should be followed or must be followed.

King Qin Guang sat down again and said to Li Shimin below: "King Tang, you are the king of the world, but this is the underworld. If you enter here, you will no longer be a king."

Li Shimin was very frightened, and hurriedly bowed to King Qin Guang and said, "Please let the king let me go back, I, I don't want to die!"

"No matter who it is, as long as it is a human being, if they fail to ascend before the deadline, they will inevitably die in the end. The king of men is no exception. This is true of your father Li Yuan and Yang Jian, who created the prosperous age of the emperor, and you are no exception." King Yan Luo Said.

Hearing this, Li Shimin's soul shuddered again. So, today... is it really impossible for me to escape death?

"Li Shimin, you conspired to rebel, murdered your brother and imprisoned your father, you deserve the same fate as Yang Guang!" Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's ghosts said to him in a cold voice.

Hearing this, Li Shimin gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and lowered his head.

I...knew that I was wrong, so after ascending to the throne, I worked hard to rule, created the rule of Zhenguan, conquered the Quartet, expanded the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and worked hard to be a good emperor. Could it be that these...can't make up for my mistakes?
Actually comparing me with Yang Guang, Yang Guang made the mighty Sui fall apart, but I made the Tang stronger and the barbarians surrendered, so I'm completely different from him, okay?

"Amitabha~" Just as Li Shimin was crying for himself in his heart, suddenly, a huge Buddha sound sounded, and then Li Shimin felt dizzy, and his whole body was dizzy. When he opened his eyes, he found that he had actually left the Hall of Yama , came to a bridge, and stood in front of him a monk holding a Zen stick and wearing a cassock, who is he?

"Poor Monk Dizang, the King of Tang is very polite!" Dizang raised his palms and slightly bowed his head to Li Shimin.

Hearing this, Li Shimin was startled, took a step back quickly, bowed and said, "I have seen Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva! Is it the Bodhisattva who saved me?"

Ksitigarbha shook his head and said, "The poor monk just told the ten kings of hell that your life is not over, king Tang, so the ten kings of hell will let you go."

"My... life is not over yet? Phew~" Li Shimin heaved a sigh of relief, that's good.

"However, it is rare for Your Majesty to come to the underworld, why not take a good look at the scenery of the underworld, after all, you will come back soon." Dizang continued.

Hearing this, Li Shimin, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, immediately panicked again, how long will he be back?He hurriedly asked Ksitigarbha, "Dare to ask Bodhisattva, how long can I live?"

Jizo raised three fingers at him.

Li Shimin thought it was three days, his soul staggered for a moment, thinking it was three days, he murmured: "I have already died soon, three days, what is the difference between that and dying now?"

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

"Going slowly, you sinners, watch!"

Suddenly, a heroic shout sounded, and Li Shimin turned his head to look, and saw a horse-headed ghost with a whip in his hand, and was beating a group of ghosts vigorously. They were obviously already in their souls, but they were forced to be whipped by the whip. Seeing this, Li Shimin clasped his hands together and said to Ksitigarbha: "Bodhisattva, I don't want to die so soon, please save me, please save me? I am willing to build a temple and a golden body for Bodhisattva. Let my descendants worship the Bodhisattva forever and ever!"

Ksitigarbha turned sideways, only willing to accept his half-respect, and said to him: "Your Majesty has such a heart, and the poor monk is very grateful, but the monks are all empty, and the poor monk doesn't care about it."

"That……"

"Your Majesty's lifespan is declining day by day, mainly due to being haunted by wronged souls. After returning home, Your Majesty can often recite Buddhist scriptures to expel the wronged souls with Buddhist teachings. By reciting a different Buddhist scripture every day, Your Majesty will surely prolong your life." Ksitigarbha said with his eyes open.

"Really?" Li Shimin is not such an idiot who is easily fooled, but he is willing to be an idiot when it comes to matters related to lifespan. Anyway, if you try it, there is no loss if it is fake.

"True." Frequent reading of Buddhist scriptures can relax the mind, and if you feel in a good mood, you will naturally live a long life. My Buddha, disciple, this is not a lie, right?As for Yangshou being fixed in the book of life and death, well, strictly speaking, it is fixed, but it is not completely impossible to change, at least I know that there is someone who can modify the above content, but that person is not me.

"I understand, thank you Bodhisattva for your guidance." Li Shimin thanked Ksitigarbha King.

"The poor monk sent His Majesty out of the underworld."

"Hmm, thank you Bodhisattva."

Afterwards, Li Shimin's ghost followed Ksitigarbha quickly towards the underworld.

……

In the world, in the palace.

"Huh~" Li Shimin who was lying on the dragon couch opened his eyes suddenly, and shouted: "Come on, come on!"

While speaking, he gasped for breath, and his mood was extremely unstable.

Outside the hall, upon hearing his shout, many guards quickly pushed the door open and came in front of them, each of them was vigilant.

"Your Majesty, what are your orders?" The head guard asked Li Shimin, clasping his fists.

Li Shimin didn't answer. At this moment, he had calmed down, raised his head, recalled what happened before, then looked up at the beams of his main hall, and then looked around. This is his bedroom, so... Did I have a nightmare just now?

"No, that sense of reality is definitely not a dream!" Li Shimin thought in his heart, and then he ordered the head guard: "Call Qin Tianjian to see me!"

"Yes."

"Also, take... take a Buddhist scripture and show it to me."

"Buddhist scriptures? Yes, Your Majesty." The head guard replied puzzled.

……

The next day, Li Shimin went to court and ordered to build Buddhist temples around Chang'an, and to collect Buddhist scriptures from all over the world for the royal family.

Not only that, but he also invited eminent monks to hold water and land pujas for the late hidden prince Li Jiancheng and Qi Wang Li Yuanji.

Although he is a descendant of Li Er, if he can live forever, he, the king...will also worship Buddha!
