Journey to the West Tiger Demon, mortals urge me to ascend the throne

Chapter 172 Mortals, Tremble Before Capital!
Zhao Lei grinned as he looked at the crowd of people busy going up and down under the city wall.

Seeing the smile on Zhao Lei's side face, even Guanyin Bodhisattva couldn't help feeling a little creepy.

How sinister and sinister is the heart to be able to smile like this?

Sure enough, what Zhao Lei said next subverted her three views.

I saw Zhao Lei suddenly took out a few pieces of silver: "Do you know what this is?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva frowned slightly and nodded.

Isn't this the currency that mortals use to trade?

What's so special?
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Lei put away the broken silver and took out several newly developed banknotes.These banknotes have been mana-processed, and it is difficult for ordinary people to copy them.

Holding the banknotes in his hand, Zhao Lei continued, "What if I say that I will use these papers instead of silver in the near future?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva was in a fog.

Even if these papers are used instead of silver, what does it matter to her?

What does it have to do with going west?

Guanyin Bodhisattva sighed secretly, a little tired: "Fellow Daoist, I really can't think of these things. What does it have to do with your enslaving mortals, please tell me."

Zhao Lei put away the banknotes, smiled knowingly, waved his hand, and motioned Guanyin Bodhisattva to look at the people in the city: "Fellow Daoist, how do you think the life of the people in this king, the God Tiger Kingdom, is going?"

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva looked at the common people in the city: "To tell you the truth, fellow Taoists, during the long years of my cultivation, the people of Shenhu Kingdom are indeed the happiest people I have ever seen."

Zhao Lei laughed uncontrollably: "Hahahaha, fellow daoist's words are wrong. If that's the case, what fellow daoist sees is only the surface. Moreover, this is only the first step of my king."

"surface?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva is still in the fog.

surface?

first step?
Zhao Lei nodded and put his hands behind his back: "That's right, what Fellow Daoists see is that the common people are living with smiles on their faces. This seems very happy, but this is also the first step that this king uses to confuse them. Why don't you, Fellow Daoist Trying to see the essence? What are mortals really doing?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva frowned and looked at the common people in the city again.

He saw vendors on the street drinking.

There is a waiter in the shop pulling customers.

Someone is serving customers.

There are vendors congratulating each other, polite and so on.

Her frowning brows slowly relaxed, and she suddenly discovered something!That is, most people are actually working!Guanyin Bodhisattva and others looked at Zhao Lei with big eyes, as if they wanted to ask whether her guess was correct: "They are all..."

Before she finished speaking, Zhao Lei nodded and said, "Yes, don't look at these mortals with happy faces. In fact, they are all working hard to find money. The reason why they are happy is because this king gave them hope. Give them a path to a great life."

Now, Guanyin Bodhisattva was even more confused.

It is not good?

After all, in this day and age in the mortal world, it is already pretty good to be able to eat enough, let alone live a happier life?

Zhao Lei didn't let her wait too long, and suddenly smiled softly: "But is the road to a happy life really that easy?"

Seeing Zhao Lei's treacherous smile, Guanyin Bodhisattva was a little suffocated.

Zhao Lei continued to laugh and said, "My first step is to give them hope. The second step is to make the common people realize how far away this happy life is!
If they want to pursue a better and higher-quality life, they must continue to work and make money!

Fellow Daoist, just look over there. "

The direction Zhao Lei pointed to was a site where a house was being built.

Zhao Lei led the puzzled Guanyin Bodhisattva, looked at the site, and continued: "Those are the latest cement houses launched by the king. Whether it is beautiful or practical, the quality is several times higher than the current house! The price is also higher than that of the current house. It has been multiplied several times!
This king will let the common people in the entire Shenhu Kingdom form a concept, that is, only if they live in such a good concrete house, can they be regarded as masters!Only then will people look up to it!
And these cement houses, as time goes by, the price will only get higher and higher!
If ordinary people want to get this kind of concrete house, they can only spend their whole life working and making money!

And what this king needs to pay is only the same land and the same building materials!

Fellow Daoist, take another look there. "

This time, what Zhao Lei showed Guanyin Bodhisattva was a clothing store selling clothes.

However, the clothes sold in the clothing store obviously do not belong to the style of this era, and the fabric has to be even more expensive, and the word 'Guchi' is even sewn onto the fabric.

"Before the founding of the Shenhu Kingdom, the pursuit of the common people was only to dress warmly. But now? Now it is not only necessary to dress warmly! This king also wants to let everyone form a concept, that is, to dress well and wear Beautiful!
Let everyone fundamentally think that it is shameful and conspicuous to go out without wearing this kind of clothes!
And what does the king need to pay?
Less fabric and just two words sewn on!The price can be multiplied countless times! "

"Hahahahahaha! And this kind of consumption concept will soon cover the entire Shenhu Kingdom! Let mortals have endless desires! Let mortals have to work hard to make money for the king in pursuit of a better life !

In the end, even to marry a wife and have children, ordinary people have to prepare a lot of wealth to do it!
Hahahahaha!
And what does this king need to pay for all this?
It's just some randomly printed banknotes!Hahahahaha!Fellow Daoist, tell me, isn’t this the best way to enslave mortals? !As long as the banknotes are given enough, in the end, mortals even dare to slaughter gods for these worthless banknotes!Fellow Daoist, do you still question whether this king is enslaving them? "

The words fall.

The surrounding environment seemed to respond to the atmosphere created by Zhao Lei, and suddenly darkened.

Then thousands of light bulbs in Shenhu Kingdom lighted up at the same time!
It was also the first time for Guanyin Bodhisattva to see such a magnificent scene.

Her expression became a little more exciting.

Zhao Lei on the side continued to introduce: "These are also small gadgets that the king ordered people to tinker with. It's ridiculous, this group of mortals thought that the purpose of making these gadgets was to allow them to illuminate at night and improve their health. The quality of life. As everyone knows, this king is to allow everyone to work for this king without interruption for twelve hours from now on!

Hahahahaha!
I want everyone to realize that what is 007 is a blessing! "

Although Guanyin Bodhisattva was already shocked by Zhao Lei's remarks, he subconsciously asked, "Zero...zero seven?"

Zhao Lei looked at Guanyin Bodhisattva with a playful look on his face: "Every day from ugly time to work until noon, seven days a week, all year round! I have to let these stupid mortals know that to have this opportunity to work hard for me is The blessings they cultivated in a few lifetimes, hahahahahaha!"

heard here.

Guanyin Bodhisattva couldn't help but gasp!
Just imagine, if the Buddha told her to let her take care of the mortal world uninterruptedly for twelve hours a day, and give her a little merit every month as a reward, for ten thousand years, she would feel overwhelmed just thinking about it!
After Guanyin Bodhisattva heard Zhao Lei's overall plan, she was so shocked that her back felt chills.

Zhao Lei is now in her mind, and has been engraved with various labels such as insidious, cunning, and scheming.

And came to a conclusion.

This guy is so terrifying!
hiss---! ! !
Zhao Lei wiped away the tears from laughing and crying, then restrained his emotions, and said kindly to Guanyin Bodhisattva: "So, fellow daoist, my king's great wish to benefit the people has nothing to do with your trip to the west, fellow daoist. Although on the surface, this king is benefiting the people, but in reality, this king is enslaving them.

When the westbound people come to this king's country, fellow Taoist, you just need to tell them the truth and let them come forward to rescue the people.At that time, fellow daoists will reap a lot of merit, what do you think? "

Guanyin Bodhisattva took a deep breath.

Relieve your shock a little bit.

It has to be said that Zhao Lei's plan is comprehensive.

It doesn't affect her big ambition, and it can perfectly help her arrange the westward trip. She really can't find a reason to reject Zhao Lei.

After thinking for a moment, Guanyin Bodhisattva regained his calm face and folded his hands together: "Amitabha, then I will thank my friends here first."

Zhao Lei also nodded in satisfaction: "Good~"

After understanding the problems of Shenhu Kingdom, Guanyin Bodhisattva flew back to Chaoyin Cave in Luojia Mountain, Putuo, South China Sea on her lotus flower.

On Zhao Lei's side, the Long Live Fox King, Jade-faced Fox, White Deer and Black Sheep were summoned to the palace hall to discuss important matters...

……

royal palace.

in the hall.

After receiving Zhao Lei's summons.

Long live the fox king, the jade-faced fox, the white deer and the black sheep rushed to the hall in a hurry.

As soon as he stepped into the hall, Long Live Fox King hurriedly strode towards Zhao Lei.

Zhao Lei also stepped forward to welcome everyone.

"Son-in-law! My good son-in-law! How is it? Has Guanyin Bodhisattva left? How is your situation? Has our plan been debunked?"

Long live the fox king asked a lot of questions.

Zhao Lei didn't know how to answer him, so he could only support Long live Fox King's arms, and comforted him earnestly: "Father, don't worry, it's all right now. Everything is up to me."

Long live the fox king was taken aback.

Even Zhao Lei's cultivation is still very poor.

But Zhao Lei's series of behaviors after leaving the customs, plus his current performance, made Long Live Fox King instantly feel at ease.

Long Live Fox King Lao Huai smiled comfortingly, then nodded.

Zhao Lei passed the long live fox king and came to the jade-faced fox.

Look at each other for a moment.

The two sides hugged each other fiercely.

Without saying anything, tears flowed from the corners of the jade-faced fox's eyes.

During this time, I was really worried about her.

After hugging for a while, Zhao Lei let her go.

Zhao Lei, who is two meters tall, wiped the tears from the face of a 1.7-meter jade-faced fox.

At this moment, they are really talented and beautiful, and they are a perfect match.

While wiping away tears, Zhao Lei said in a magnetic voice, "Don't worry, I'm fine. Everything is up to me."

The jade-faced fox nodded with a smile.

I was so moved.

After that, he passed the jade-faced fox and came to the white deer and the black sheep.

"Big brother!"

"Big brother!"

Without saying anything, Zhao Lei gave each of the two brothers a bear hug.

After letting go of the two, Zhao Lei went up and down, looking at them very satisfied.

During the year of retreat, White Deer and Black Sheep have also successfully stepped into the realm of refining and transforming qi. Coupled with the addition of the five thunders rectification method, they can be regarded as top existences among the little demons.

"Very good! The two of you really didn't disappoint my elder brother!"

With Zhao Lei's approval, Bailu and Heiyang also hummed excitedly.

After a little hala circle.

The party finally got down to business.

Zhao Lei told the story of the incident and the trip to the west to the people present, and the reactions of the people were shocked again and again: "This is the way it is. Please remember, only the few of us here know about this matter. Absolutely." It cannot be revealed!"

Regarding matters related to the overall situation of the Three Realms, Long Live Fox King and the others had no choice but to nod cautiously.

After agreeing, the Long Live Fox King sighed again.

He also didn't expect that all the top figures in the Three Realms would have such an attitude.

But it's right to think about it, these top figures have lived so many Yuanhui, so how can they pay attention to everything?

As for going west...

In fact, the fact that the world will be destroyed when Yuan Hui is over is not a secret in front of beings like him, but he did not expect Guanyin Bodhisattva to be the lucky one selected by those top beings.

I didn't expect that the other party had already made arrangements so many years ago.

Even Monkey King is one of their pawns.

No wonder that monkey was able to get out of the way when he made a big disturbance in the Heavenly Palace...

After sighing, Long Live Fox King looked at Zhao Lei again with a complex look on his face.He was very relieved that Zhao Lei's son-in-law was very filial and determined to continue his life.

He is also very guilty.

Because continuing his life would cause a lot of trouble.

He is an old guy who has lived for nearly ten thousand years, and he still has to cause trouble for the younger generation, he is really a little bit sorry.

He even started to think about whether to sacrifice himself in exchange for the happy life of Zhao Lei and his daughter.

Long live the fox king was thinking.

Zhao Lei seemed to have seen the thoughts of the Long Live Fox King, and interrupted directly: "Father, you don't have to think too much. There is no need to think about what you have and what you don't have. The grievances accumulated by those gods for so long are definitely not father You can calm down with one life.

Since they chose to put pressure on Taishang Laojun.

Then it means that your death is not really important to them.

All they care about is whether their goals can be successful.

Therefore, even if you, father, choose to sacrifice, as long as the goal is not achieved for a day, the group of gods will not let you and Yu'er, the branch of father, be spared.

The only thing we can do is to fight them to the end! "

Long live the fox king was stunned.

Originally, he wanted to say something, but he also understood that what Zhao Lei said made sense.

He didn't refuse Zhao Lei's kindness anymore.

But he soon became worried again.

Will their family be able to compete with the gods to the end?

Zhao Lei seemed to see what he was thinking, and comforted him again: "Father, don't worry. With my current aptitude, the entire Three Realms can be said to be completely useless. As long as I give me a certain amount of time, no one in the Three Realms will be my opponent again." .I will definitely be able to protect our family.”

See Zhao Lei is so determined.

The Long Live Fox King had no choice but to nod, no longer persuading...
