Chapter 616 Could it be you who changed the Queen Mother?
"The danger of the Heavenly Court has not yet been resolved, Zhou Ji, Nezha and others are still rushing towards Yaochi, what good strategy does the master have?"
"The poor monk was entrusted by Fairy Chang'e to rescue the Tianting in a crisis, but the poor monk is a Buddhist after all, so it is inconvenient to ask more about the internal affairs of the Tianting. It's just that the poor monk has something to advise His Majesty. I wonder if Your Majesty would like to listen to it? "Jin Chanzi uttered the Buddha's name and said calmly.
"Tell me~"
"Speaking."
The Queen Mother and the Jade Emperor thought that things had turned around, so they asked questions together.
"The poor monk once heard that the way of Taoism is to overcome rigidity with softness. If Your Majesty uses the way of Taoism to deal with the current situation, the danger of heaven can be solved."
Seeing the thoughtful looks of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, Jin Chanzi smiled slightly, performed a Buddha ceremony, and left gracefully.
As soon as he walked out of the Yaochi, the smile on Jin Chanzi's face froze, and at the end of his line of sight, a familiar figure with a benevolent brow and kind eyes, holding a mutton fat jade bottle, was walking towards this side.
Cold sweat dripped down Jin Chanzi's forehead. He glanced left and right in a panic. He had a wide view of his surroundings, and he couldn't even find a place to hide.
In a hurry, Jin Chanzi jumped down from the promenade with his arms propped up on the fence, plop~ sank into the sea of clouds in Tianchi Lake, and two circles of cloud bubbles appeared~
Guanyin followed behind the rolling curtain at a leisurely pace. When he approached the Yaochi, he suddenly felt something in his heart. Looking up, he saw only two ring-shaped cloud circles, one large and one small, rising from the sea of clouds beside the fence.
On the other side, Zhou Ji believed the proposal of Marshal Tianpeng for the time being, and decided to wait for a while. If even Guanyin could not persuade the Heavenly Court to release him, he would enter Yaochi to find the Queen Mother of the Jade Emperor in person.
"Brother Zhou, how is the situation?"
After meeting up with the Meishan brother Xiao Tiangou, Yang Jian came back to Yaochi again. Seeing Zhou Ji Nezha confronting the army of the Heavenly Court, he walked up to him, glanced at the embarrassing Marshal Tianpeng, and frowned slightly.
"After you and Jin Chanzi left, Guanyin Bodhisattva arrived immediately, and has already gone to Yaochi to negotiate with the Heavenly Court." Zhou Ji briefly explained the current situation, and noticed that Yang Jian's breath was a little disturbed, so he couldn't help but take another look, "You are injured gone?"
"Jin Chanzi's strength is unfathomable. I fought with him from the heavens to the lower realms. In the final competition of mana, both of us were blown away. Thanks to the help of the three princesses, I was able to recover." Yang Jian's expression was solemn, Putting away the contempt in his eyes, he glanced sideways at Cun Xin, and said gratefully.
"Miss Cunxin. Why are you here?"
"My cousin saw that you were sending Ruo Shui to the sky for a long time, and she was worried that something might have happened, so she asked me to take a look." Cun Xin wrapped her fingertips around her hair and said with erratic eyes.
Zhou Ji had no choice but to support his forehead. In his opinion, these two people are actually destined for each other. Even if Yang Jian forcibly stays with her in order to "repay her kindness", conflicts will gradually erupt due to differences in personality and concept, and eventually harm others and himself.
Yao Chi over there.
The Queen Mother of the Jade Emperor learned that Guanyin Bodhisattva was ordered by the Buddha to come to the east to capture the golden cicada and return, and she couldn't help but look at each other.
Jade Emperor regretted: "The Bodhisattva came a step late. I just invited Jin Chanzi to Yaochi, and now he has left."
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva thought of the cloud circle in Tianchi that he had seen before coming to Yaochi, and suddenly he said the Buddha's name: "Dare to ask Your Majesty, where did Jin Chanzi go?"
"He didn't tell me. He only said that he was going to realize Taoism. But when he left, he left me a reminder that he could solve the crisis in the heaven. I couldn't understand it. I don't know if the Bodhisattva can solve my doubts for me?"
The Jade Emperor took advantage of the opportunity to tell Guanyin what Jin Chanzi said about 'conquering strength with softness', and Guanyin understood Jin Chanzi's intention with a thought, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Buddhists pay attention to the word enlightenment. Everything in the world has a cause and an effect. Sometimes it's just a different way of looking at things,
Maybe if you think about it from another angle, the evil cause in front of you can turn into a good result. "
Jade Emperor said blankly: "I still don't quite understand what the Bodhisattva said."
"Amitabha." Avalokitesvara said the Buddha's name, smiled and said nothing.
The Jade Emperor thought for a while, feeling his head was about to explode, sighed and said: "Bodhisattva, can you stop going around in circles? How about this, please stay here and help the heavenly court to defeat the enemy, the magic power of the Bodhisattva is well known. Heaven will definitely help the Bodhisattva find the golden cicada."
The smile on Avalokitesvara's face faded, and he clasped his hands together, and said solemnly: "Amitabha. This is a deal. Those who forgive Buddhism cannot make this deal with His Majesty. The turning point of the crisis in heaven lies in Jin Chanzi's 'Use softness to overcome strength'. The poor monk resigned .”
Jin Chanzi, who defeated Yang Jian, is gone, and Guanyin Bodhisattva, the only one who can help Tianting defeat the enemy, is also gone.
"That's all!" The Jade Emperor slapped the table, decided to give up thinking, and said ruthlessly: "Heavenly slaves pass on the decree! Use Yang Chan's blood to sacrifice the banner of my heavenly court. I want to drive myself to conquer and fight the evildoers to the death!"
The Queen Mother pressed the Jade Emperor's arm, and hurriedly dissuaded her: "Your Majesty must not do so! Even if we retreat from the enemy, our Heavenly Court will suffer heavy losses."
The Jade Emperor relied on himself as the Lord of the Three Realms and was in charge of the rules and laws of the heavens, but he was unwilling to destroy the heavens that had been built for hundreds of thousands of years. He was a real "lonely man" and said with a sigh: "Jin Chanzi and Guanyin Bodhisattva said When you talk, the clouds and mountains and fog surround you, making it hard for people to understand, empress, do you have any other good ideas?"
The queen mother thought of the backhand she had arranged before, and suddenly seemed to have caught something, her eyes lit up and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine understands the meaning of 'Use softness to overcome strength' that Jin Chanzi and Bodhisattva said!"
"Oh~?" The Jade Emperor said pleasantly, "Quickly, quickly."
The queen mother said confidently, "If your majesty is willing to listen to the concubine's words, it will not cost a single soldier. If Yang Jian and the others don't retreat, the concubine is willing to leave the heaven and the lower realm to become human beings."
"Tsk~~ah~ what time is this? Why are you acting like Jin Chanzi Guanyin?" The Jade Emperor gave a "tsk" impatiently, and the queen mother raised her hand to interrupt the jade. The Emperor complained, and continued: "However, the majesty of the Heavenly Court may be compromised a little bit."
Damage the majesty of the heaven? This touched the Jade Emperor's back scales. Seeing that the Jade Emperor was about to get angry, the Queen Mother followed up with the words: "However, after this little damage, the majesty of the heaven will be established again, and, It will be even more majestic than before!"
The queen mother raised her chin slightly as she spoke, and raised her hand to look into the distance.
The Jade Emperor patted his knee impatiently, and urged: "If you have any good ideas, please hurry up."
"The concubine begged His Majesty to pardon Yang Chan's crimes, canonize Zhou Ji, Yang Jian, Nezha and others, and summon them to serve in the heaven~!" The queen mother wanted to see her, and revealed her real plan.
Only then did the Jade Emperor understand why Jin Chanzi and Guanyin Bodhisattva would say things like "Heaven's internal affairs, please don't ask me more".
However, the situation is reversed, the evildoer who fled in the past is about to kill Yaochi, and it is the turn of Heaven to compromise with the evildoer.
Jade Emperor closed his eyes, thinking for a long time.
This is the last thing he wants to accept.
The Jade Emperor sighed: "Doesn't that mean that the way I treated Yao Ji was wrong?"
"No! Your Majesty is not wrong. We only pardoned Yang Chan and Zhou Ji's sins, but not Yao Ji." The Queen Mother shook her head, and once again mentioned what Zhou Ji said in Taoshan.
"Yao Ji's fault, Zhou Ji said clearly, even Yao Ji herself has admitted her mistake, if His Majesty minds the damage to the majesty of the Heavenly Court, this time can just take this opportunity to send another person to the lower realm, deprive Yao Ji of her priesthood reduced to mortals."
The queen mother opened her hands, as if holding something, "It is kindness to forgive Yang Chan, Zhou Ji and others for their sins, and punish Yao Ji for violating the rules of heaven. Grace is equally important, and both hands can be held!"
If these people can be caged for use by the Heavenly Court and made them His Majesty’s servants, then, who in the Three Realms would dare to ignore His Majesty’s majesty?”
Jade Emperor thought about the future and couldn't help feeling a little moved.
There are too few people available in the Heavenly Court. Except for the Marshal Tianpeng and the Heavenly Rolling Curtain, there are only ten sons left. However, facing such powerful enemies as Zhou Ji and Yang Jian, even the top ten Golden Crows are not enough. .
"Since that's the case, let's do what your mother said~!"
Outside the fairyland, between the sea of clouds.
Marshal Tianpeng was staring at the Meishan brothers and Nezha, feeling like a light on his back, fidgeting.
"I'm coming!"
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Marshal Canopy paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw someone coming from the direction of Yaochi, turned around eagerly, and looked on tiptoe.
"Second Brother~!" "Big Brother Zhou~!"
Yang Chan, escorted by Little Golden Crow and Heavenly Rolling Curtain, flew to the crowd with a lotus lantern in her hand. Yang Jian hurried forward to meet Yang Chan, supported Yang Chan, and said with concern: "Sister, how are you? Are you injured? "
Zhou Ji stood where he was, and gave Yang Chan an apologetic look.
When he went to heaven, Yang Jian entrusted his younger sister's safety to him. If he hadn't been lured away by the ten golden crows, Yang Chan wouldn't have fallen into danger.
"I'm fine, second brother, the Jade Emperor pardoned us all." Yang Chan shook her head lightly, and while talking to second brother, kept paying attention to Zhou Ji who was not far away.
"Hey~ You see, I said that His Majesty will let Yang Chan go." Marshal Tianpeng breathed a sigh of relief, and gestured to the crowd with a smile on his face. Wet with sweat.
Nezha made a loud noise when he heard the words, turned his head and said, "I haven't pardoned him yet."
In short, Yang Chan was able to return safely, and everyone present, including the soldiers from the Heavenly Court, breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother Zhou..." Yang Chan walked up to Zhou Ji, her watery eyes revealed soft light, she pursed her lips, and shook her head lightly, "Brother Zhou, you don't have to blame yourself. It was actually me who should say sorry. It was me at the time." I beg you to act, if you hadn't blocked the Golden Crow formation, the creatures brought by Ruo Shui would have been sunburned to death in the end. I have become your burden again."
Zhou Ji put his hand on Yang Chan's head, and suddenly became unconscious. The second brother was still there, so he raised his hand halfway and patted her arm, nodding and said, "Just come back."
Yang Chan raised her eyes to look at Zhou Ji, their eyes met, Mei Shan Lao Liu waved a weapon and shouted, "Miss San is back, and now we have the Lotus Lantern, we can destroy two heavens. Let's break in! They don't have to be afraid of any conspiracy."
"." Meishan's sixth son looked around, noticed the suddenly subtle atmosphere, scratched his head belatedly, and asked in surprise, "Did I say something wrong?"
Marshal Tianpeng glared at Meishan Lao Liu, and quickly stood in front of everyone and said, "It's absolutely impossible, the Heavenly Court released Yang Chan first, and it has already shown its sincerity for the peace talks. If there is another fight, it will not end well. Ya~!"
"The empress is here~"
A high-pitched voice came from a distance. Tian Nu, whose face was covered with gray and white lead powder, led the heavenly soldiers soaring towards the clouds, stepped aside, and the Queen Mother appeared gracefully and full of aura.
"The little **** sees the empress."
"See Empress."
Marshal Canopy and the heavenly soldiers and generals behind him hurriedly bowed to salute, Zhou Ji looked at the down-to-earth 'Queen Mother' with his hands on his hips in front of him, and couldn't help looking up and down, "Hey~ Nezha, this Queen Mother is also you Has it changed?"
Little Nezha didn't hear what Zhou Ji was saying, so he rolled his eyes and said, "Brother Zhou, you're already talking to me, how can I change?"
"Cough~!" The queen mother coughed lightly, and said with a straight face: "Your Majesty has an order. Although Yang Zha, Yang Chan, and Nezha have sinned deeply in the past, before the Queen Mother could finish her sentence, Nezha interrupted angrily: " Wait, who is guilty of the most serious crimes? Who is guilty of the most serious crimes? We have never sinned. "
"Cough, the crimes in the past were serious." The queen mother was startled by Nezha, she gathered herself together, and quickly read the first half of the paragraph, "But if you think of his meritorious service in controlling the water, forgive his crimes and reward him for his merits. Yang Chan, Yang Jian, Zhou Ji, Nezha, come forward and listen to the seal."
Everyone looked at each other, but no one stepped forward.
Yang Jian showed disdain and said: "Your Majesty, you have made a wrong calculation. The Heavenly Court is cruel and ruthless, acting against the law, rebelling against its promise, and ignoring the creatures of the three realms for the sake of a little face. I promised Ruo Shui to take the creatures to the sky, and then hunted them down. So the Heavenly Court , still want us to be your slaves?"
The Queen Mother had already guessed that direct canonization would attract resistance from the other party, so she pushed Tian Nu out as a scapegoat, and moved out Jin Chanzi and Guanyin Bodhisattva, saying that the Jade Emperor listened to Jin Chanzi and Guanyin Bodhisattva After some discussion, he suddenly repented, and then he was willing to turn hostility into friendship and avoid killing again.
Zhou Ji shook his head, and said with a faint expression: "As the rulers of the Three Realms, you claim to be superior and have forgotten the equality of all living beings. You only care about your own face, and you don't know how to show benevolence to all beings in the Three Realms. You think that this will make us retreat. It won’t be long before the same mistakes happen.”
"You are Zhou Ji?" The Queen Mother's eyelids twitched slightly, and she gave Zhou Ji a thumbs up: "Every time you talk about it, it is very meaningful. It can be seen that you are really thinking about the heaven and the three worlds, and Guanyin Bodhisattva. The words of Jin Chanzi coincide with each other, so I will definitely tell His Majesty for you. If you have any suggestions, you may wish to put them forward one by one, no matter whether Your Majesty accepts it or not, I will definitely record the merits of being outspoken and daring to advise you.”
People are shameless and invincible in the world. Seeing the attitude of the queen mother who is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water, Zhou Ji was speechless for a while.
"Huh?" Marshal Tianpeng shuddered unconsciously, looked around suspiciously, and vaguely felt that someone was talking about himself.
