Let you conquer the world of low-level martial arts, what the hell is Journey to the West?

Chapter 42: The judge’s respect will send the senior brother to the animal realm?

Zhang Tian looked at the ghost official in red robe holding the Book of Life and Death in his hand, and he actually opened his mouth and revealed his identity and life span without asking any questions.

He couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, as if a country bumpkin had seen a grand occasion. This Book of Life and Death was indeed the legendary treasure that controlled the lifespan of all living things. It was much stronger than the so-called big data in later generations. It not only had an automatic face recognition function, but also a cross-regional data sharing function.

According to what the ghost official said, Zhang Tian's identity was arranged by the main god. He should have been from Xiniu Hezhou. After his death, his soul would naturally belong to one of the Ten Kings of Hell in Xiniu Hezhou, not to this Nanshanbuzhou.

Perhaps it was because of the intervention of the ancestor that the souls of him and his senior brother came here. His birthday should not have been there, but it was there. Moreover, the ghost official did not seem to be surprised at all. Instead, he picked up a pen and wanted to cross out Zhang Tian's name. It seems that there is no such thing as cross-regional case handling in the underworld.

Zhang Tian was lost in thought, not at all as pale as his senior brother who was refining medicine, because he knew that he would not die. After all, he came here on the orders of the founder.

In the future, monkeys would cause chaos in the underworld. They not only snatched the Book of Life and Death and crossed out their own names, but also crossed out the names of all the monkeys in the world. They were extremely brave.

And as the monkey's master.

A person with great supernatural powers recognized by the three realms.

Patriarch Bodhi has the ability to save his life, so Zhang Tian was not panicked at all. Instead, he was thinking happily.

"All the brothers are saying that cultivators have a limited lifespan, and every five hundred years they have to go through the three disasters and nine tribulations. Only those who go through them can hope for longevity."

"And my life span is nearly 800 years, almost catching up with the legendary Peng Zu who was good at keeping in good health. Even the ghost official in charge of the Book of Life and Death claims that he has made great progress in cultivation, but I have only cultivated my magic power for more than ten years..."

"Could it be!"

Zhang Tian thought of the magical powers he had gained from reading Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica. He had absorbed a lot of essence from various plants and trees, which probably extended his lifespan a lot.

Something moved in his heart.

The essence of the plants does have the magical effect of prolonging life. It can be seen from the Book of Life and Death that it really increases the lifespan, even exceeding the 500-year limit for ordinary practitioners. If it works on mortals, then wouldn't it mean that whoever he wants can live longer?

Well, you can refine more and carry them with you in the future. If you have the opportunity to deal with mortals, you can reward them with two at will. They are absolutely hard currency. No matter where you go in the mortal world, you will be treated like a national teacher.

Zhang Tian learned this from the monkey. Back then, the monkey was suppressed under the Five Finger Mountain and no one came to see him. Only the shepherd boy who lived at the foot of the mountain picked some peaches for the monkey to eat. The monkey then breathed out a breath of fresh air, which extended the monkey's life by a hundred years.

When the monkey came out of the mountain, he encountered those thieves who wanted to rob the child. He took direct action and killed those evil people without any mercy, just to cut the grass and eradicate the roots!
"If evil people are not eliminated, they will only bring harm to good people!"

Just like the monkey, who borrows things and never returns them, can do such a thing. Zhang Tian felt that as his junior brother, although he could not exhale a breath of fresh air like the monkey to make people live longer, at least he could prepare some things, just to be prepared for any eventuality.

While he was thinking, he saw the ghost official sitting on the high platform change his expression drastically, his eyes widened in disbelief, as if he was acting, and almost buried his head in the Book of Life and Death, looking left and right, as if he had glimpsed something unbelievable.

What's even funnier is.

This person is clearly a ghost official, and should be a spirit, but he actually seems to have some cold sweat on his forehead.

Not to mention that Zhang Tian was stunned, even the ghost officials who were sitting down were whispering about it. As subordinates who had been with this ghost official for a long time, they had never seen him look like this.

What surprised them even more was that the ghost official actually came down from the high platform in a panic, bowed to the young Zhang Tian standing there with a bitter face, and said bluntly, "Sir! This Sir! I am Judge Li, who is in charge of the Yin Law Department in the underworld. I have only been enlightened for three hundred years. The ghost eyes cannot recognize the real gods. Please forgive me, Sir, and take back my magical powers!"

Many ghosts and devils were shocked and lowered their heads. They never expected that Zhang Tian, ​​who looked like a wandering soul in front of them, was actually an extraordinary immortal.

In their eyes, the Judge of the Underworld is a big shot, and everyone has to beg him humbly. He must be a very important person.

It’s just that they were short-sighted and couldn’t tell what kind of magical power Zhang Tian used. In fact, not to mention them, even Zhang Tian himself was a little dazed and had no idea what was going on.

But when he was politely invited to the podium by Judge Li and asked to take his seat, he caught a glimpse of the reason why Judge Li's attitude had changed so drastically.

He saw the Book of Life and Death in front of him. On that page was his name, recording the identity information assigned to him by the Lord God. And the group of Yang Shou was...

"One thousand seven hundred and seventy-eight years."

This number is ten thousand more than what the judge just said, and the Book of Life and Death is the most precious treasure of the underworld. It is almost unheard of that there has ever been any mistake in it, unless someone deliberately changes it.

Just like in the Journey to the West later, Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, was inexplicably lured to the underworld. At that time, Judge Cui was his father's minister and was a believer of Buddhism during his lifetime. He simply added two strokes to Li Shimin's life span, adding twenty years to his life span.

And this judge named Li.

I definitely don’t know him.

I don't think he would seek personal gain. Even if he did, even if he was his own father, he wouldn't be so greedy as to add ten thousand years to his life span.

Zhang Tian's mind raced, and he understood the whole thing in an instant. Only one person could modify the Book of Life and Death in front of the judge, and to modify his life span, so there was only one person who could do it.

That is Patriarch Bodhi!
No wonder the judge was so scared. To be frank, if you saw that your bank card balance suddenly had nine more zeros, you would probably be more scared, confused, and surprised than the judge.

"I don't know where you are from, Immortal. What business do you have in the underworld? Just tell me what you want to do."

"This……"

Zhang Tian didn't know what to say for a moment. After all, Patriarch Bodhi told him that when he came to the underworld, someone would come to help him, take away the big devil in his hand, and suppress it in the Nine Netherworld. He didn't mention the name of the other party.

Just as he was thinking, the alchemist who was kneeling below him suddenly shouted, his eyes full of pleading, "Junior brother, save me, save me!"

When Judge Li heard this, he was particularly knowledgeable about the ways of the world, and his face was filled with regret. "It's all the fault of those damned underworld officials. They did such a ridiculous thing. This man clearly still has so much time left in his life, how could they lure him here? Send him back to life as soon as possible."

"This senior brother is not my biological brother, but my cousin."

Judge Li:!

"How dare you, a wretch, pretend to be my senior brother. Drag him away and give him thirty lashes of the board. Send him to the animal realm."

Senior Brother:?
