Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#1749 - Can Buddha really save the world?

As Guanyin's mount, Sai Tai Sui was a demon who had seen the world and knew Guanyin's position in the Western Paradise, even between the Buddhist and Taoist sects.

He didn't expect this immortal to have such an extraordinary background, daring not to give Guanyin any face, and saying such shocking things, which really broadened his horizons.

"The Three Realms Law Enforcement Prison God? Why haven't I heard of him before?" Sai Tai Sui wondered.

In any case, he was determined to cling to this thick thigh.

He secretly glanced at Chu Hao, and when he saw that the other party was also looking at him, he immediately gave a look, indicating that he was absolutely loyal and had not betrayed the immortal.

"Prison God Chu Hao, what will it take for you to be willing to help?" Guanyin transmitted her voice.

"This, I'll talk about it when I find it." Chu Hao said, striding away.

Seeing this, Guanyin knew she couldn't stop him, so she could only transmit her voice one last time: "I must report today's matter back to Lingshan to the Buddha. If the Prison God finds it, I hope you will come to Lingshan for a visit."

Her face sank slightly, knowing that the Purple Gold Bell was on the other person, but she still had to humbly ask him.

Thinking of this, she turned to look at Sai Tai Sui, a hint of killing intent flashing in her eyes.

Sai Tai Sui immediately lowered his head, feeling a chill all over his body, as if he was about to see the Buddha of the Western Paradise in the next second.

His body trembled slightly, and his brain spun rapidly, thinking that Guanyin shouldn't kill him, right? Or should he just ask for help? Anyway, the immortal hadn't gone far. No, that wouldn't work, I'd die even faster if I asked for help!

Just as he was thinking, the killing intent suddenly disappeared. He raised his head and found that Guanyin had already left, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other side, Chu Hao walked towards the room where Consort Jin Sheng Gong was.

As soon as he entered, Consort Jin Sheng Gong thought it was the demon, and her body shook. But when she saw that it was a man, she immediately felt relieved: "You are...?"

"Consort, my name is Chu Hao. I was entrusted by the King of Zhu Zi Kingdom to rescue you," Chu Hao said.

As he spoke, he looked at the colorful fairy clothes on Consort Jin Sheng Gong's body, thinking that this was also an item of the old man Ziyang, so he decided not to take it away.

"So it's a Tang Dynasty monk, please accept my bow!" Consort Jin Sheng Gong looked grateful and hurriedly got up to perform a kneeling ceremony.

Chu Hao quickly held her up: "Consort, there's no need to do that. I'm here to tell you not to worry. In a few days, you'll be able to return to Zhu Zi Kingdom."

"Good, good, good." Consort Jin Sheng Gong said excitedly.

Next, Chu Hao gave a few more instructions before leaving.

When he returned to the outside of the cave, Tang Seng had already woken up.

He clamored to go and kill the demon. If Chu Hao hadn't told him in advance when he left, he probably would have rushed into the cave long ago.

"Immortal Lord, why didn't you let this poor monk press the attack?" Tang Seng hurriedly stepped forward and asked after seeing Chu Hao.

Chu Hao looked at him, puzzled: "Don't you remember what happened before?"

"What happened? This poor monk only remembers beating up that demon, and then he fainted," Tang Seng said in confusion.

Obviously, in order to prevent him from saying such shocking remarks again, Guanyin erased his memory just now.

Seeing this, Chu Hao didn't expose it, but just said: "That demon has great magical powers. Let's forget about it today and come back tomorrow."

"This... alright, then let's go back first. But the queen should be fine, right?" Tang Seng asked.

"Don't worry, I've already told her to wait another day," Chu Hao nodded.

Afterwards, the group had no choice but to return to the court.

Back in Zhu Zi Kingdom, the king thought that the group had already rescued the queen, and immediately led a group of ministers to welcome them, but they didn't see the queen's figure.

"High Monk, where is my queen?" the king asked.

"King, that demon has some strength, but don't worry, tomorrow I will definitely rescue the queen," Tang Seng said seriously.

"It doesn't matter, High Monk, please come inside. I have already prepared delicacies for everyone to enjoy." The king was also a sensible person. Although he missed her deeply, he knew that the demon was powerful and did not force it.

Chu Hao didn't like this kind of lively banquet, so he made an excuse and left directly.

After all, he said that he was going to find the Purple Gold Bell, and it was estimated that谛听 and Dipamkara Buddha were watching him from the sky, so he still had to put on a show.

He first summoned the Land God and the Mountain God, and then, on the pretext of inquiring, sat in their residences for a while, and then returned to Zhu Zi Kingdom and wandered around.

At that time, the sun was setting in the west, and the time was almost up.

Chu Hao was about to go to the Great Thunderclap Temple when he suddenly saw a dirty little girl lying on the side of the road.

He frowned slightly, wondering whose child had been abandoned here.

After walking over, he bent down to check and found that the little girl was covered in mud and her face was pale. The key was that she was also suffering from a serious illness. It was estimated that the family had seen that the child was not going to live and directly abandoned her on the side of the road.

In this world where men are valued over women, such little girls are a burden to many poor families. If she can grow up safely, that's fine, at least she can be exchanged for a pile of betrothal gifts, but if she can't, being ruthlessly abandoned is very normal.

Chu Hao found that the little girl was having a high fever. He thought for a moment and finally decided to take her back.

Back at the palace, Zhu Bajie saw Chu Hao bringing back a little girl and immediately stepped forward curiously: "Boss, where did you get a child from?"

"I picked her up by the side of the road. Go get a basin of hot water!" Chu Hao said.

Zhu Bajie hurriedly left to prepare.

Afterwards, Chu Hao put the little girl on the bed and used a little magic power to make the mud on her body disappear, and even her complexion improved a lot.

"Immortal Lord, I heard that you picked up this child from the side of the road?" Tang Seng walked over and asked.

Chu Hao nodded.

Tang Seng recited a Buddhist prayer: "Amitabha, the world is deteriorating, but such things often happen. This poor monk is going to the Western Paradise to worship the Buddha and seek scriptures in order to teach the world and prevent such things from happening again."

"Do you think the Buddha can really save the world?" Suddenly, Chu Hao asked.

Tang Seng hesitated for a moment, but still said: "The world is ignorant and needs guidance. This poor monk believes that Buddhist scriptures can guide them to the right path."

Hearing this, a strange light flashed in Chu Hao's eyes, and he continued to ask: "There are thousands of Buddhist teachings. How does Abbot Tang think we should save the world?"

"Open more temples and give more lectures," Tang Seng said seriously.

Chu Hao smiled slightly: "Good method, but can you guarantee that every monk will have such a sincere heart as Abbot Tang?".

"This..." Tang Seng didn't know how to answer.
