#1966 - Killing the chicken to scare the monkey
In this carnival, many people were swept up and participated, perhaps against their original intentions, but now that things have come to this point, all that remains is complete madness.
For example, Liu Futong and Han Shantong.
That's right, these two instigators never imagined that things would develop to this point.
When they saw the crowd going crazy, starting to burn, kill, and loot, they suddenly realized that they had lost control.
You should know that their original intention was just to squeeze some offerings from the believers. Although they also wanted to be kings, seeing their peaceful life shattered by their own hands...
For the first time, they showed a confused expression.
So, they told Bai Jing Shui Jingang, their leader, about their confusion.
But Bai Jing Shui Jingang felt that this was exactly what he wanted. In his opinion, the people of this kingdom must experience the baptism of blood to understand the importance of Buddhism.
To eradicate their inner fear of Buddhism, release their nature, break all shackles, and then be reborn in destruction, creating a new country.
That's right, Bai Jing Shui Jingang wanted to use force to control Mie Fa Kingdom and convert it to Buddhism.
In his opinion, those who don't believe in religion now will definitely not believe in it in the future, so it's better to just destroy them.
Destroy those who don't believe in religion, and wouldn't the remaining ones believe?
As for whether this country will perish because of this, it is not within his scope of consideration.
It's just like Chu Hao's inherent view of Lingshan.
These guys are selfish and self-serving, but they still show off how great they are, such as cutting flesh to feed eagles, etc. In fact, they are all fake. They are essentially a group of selfish people.
Facts have proved that the path Bai Jing Shui Jingang is taking is the path Lingshan wants, and this path is destined to be chaotic and disordered.
Chu Hao looked at the Mie Fa Kingdom where the people were living in misery and asked Burning Lamp Ancient Buddha: "Is this what Xitian wants?"
Burning Lamp Ancient Buddha responded: "The masses are ignorant and need salvation. If Buddhism cannot save them, then they can only go to the Western Paradise."
"Heh heh." Chu Hao sneered.
Originally, he thought that this Burning Lamp Ancient Buddha was different from the group of guys in Lingshan, but now it seems that they are all birds of a feather.
When their own interests are touched and offended, they will not think about whether it has anything to do with what they have done, but only want to solve those who offend him.
They also did not expect that things would evolve so violently.
Fortunately, the king reacted quickly, selected soldiers, and asked them to guard the palace, so as not to let the entire country fall into complete chaos.
"Master, I'll go take a look." Sun Wukong said.
After speaking, he turned into a stream of light and came to the outside of the palace.
At this moment, outside the palace, the once prosperous streets were filled with countless people venting wantonly.
They were either smashing things, or fighting each other, with no trace of the previous harmonious atmosphere.
Sun Wukong frowned. He looked around and found that all the people were in a state of madness.
This was incomprehensible to Sun Wukong.
Obviously, not long ago, everyone looked harmonious.
Obviously, everyone was enjoying life.
But why did this happen?
Didn't they all want to live better?
Obviously, this Great Sage Equaling Heaven did not understand human nature.
In fact, looking at the Three Realms, very few people truly understand human nature.
That's why they do some incredible things.
Perhaps it was because of Sun Wukong's monk-like attire, or perhaps they recognized Sun Wukong.
So when he walked on the chaotic street, he did not receive any attacks.
He walked all the way, looking at the dilapidated streets, the red lanterns everywhere, and the original inn that had been destroyed, and a sense of desolation arose in his heart.
Is this Buddhism?
Is this the true scripture that Master wants to obtain?
At this moment, an inexplicable anger suddenly surged in Sun Wukong's heart.
He couldn't imagine why Buddhism would cause such great chaos and make the world suffer so much.
Isn't Buddhism supposed to lead people to good?
At this moment, Sun Wukong suddenly caught sight of a child being beaten by a group of adults in the crowd.
He took a closer look and found that the child was the one who sold flowers when they first entered the Mie Fa Kingdom.
At this moment, the child's surroundings were covered with broken flowers, and the clothes on his body were torn.
Sun Wukong was furious. He rushed over and knocked the group of people away.
"Child, are you okay?" Sun Wukong looked down.
The child with blood on the corner of his mouth shed tears and said in a trembling voice: "They are all crazy."
Yes.
They are all crazy.
Sun Wukong clenched his fists tightly, looked at the crazy crowd, and suddenly wanted to kill everyone.
But reason told him that these people were just misled.
And the one who misled them was the Buddhism he was going to seek.
Speaking of which, it's really ironic.
Sun Wukong did not continue to stay here. He took the child to the palace, and then, in front of Tang Seng, he told the scene outside.
After hearing this, Tang Seng's brain went blank, his body softened, and he almost fell.
Fortunately, Zhu Bajie supported him.
"How is it possible? How is it possible?" Tang Seng murmured to himself, and then his mind was greatly shaken, and he fainted.
At the same time, within his body, the demonic energy that had been silent all along showed signs of recovery again.
When the change happened, Burning Lamp Ancient Buddha noticed the restless demonic energy for the first time.
At this time, Chu Hao looked at him and asked: "If this continues, I am afraid that your appointed pilgrimage team will be dispersed."
After speaking, he looked at the Mie Fa Kingdom, his eyes fell on the Bai Jing Shui Jingang: "So, it seems that I, out of compassion for Xitian, should mercifully help you destroy the culprit."
"Prison God, it's better not to intervene." Burning Lamp Ancient Buddha refused.
Hearing this, Chu Hao's eyes darkened slightly: "Are you determined to go your own way?"
"Things have come to this point, this road must be taken. If we set a precedent for the Mie Fa Kingdom, then the influence of Buddhism will no longer exist, and the Buddhist sect will lose countless believers." Burning Lamp Ancient Buddha rarely lost his composure.
Indeed, the actions of the Mie Fa Kingdom this time are different from those of the Zhu Zi Kingdom.
On the one hand, it is because the influence of the Zhu Zi Kingdom is only limited to the country, but the Mie Fa Kingdom actually intends to unite other countries, which Xitian will never allow.
On the other hand, it is because the momentum of the Mie Fa Kingdom this time is too great, and the other party has been arrogant for so long, constantly provoking Xitian.
Xitian felt that its majesty had been offended, so naturally it wanted to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys and deter other countries.
