I, Shura Armor, choose Belia at the beginning

Chapter 289 The Account Settlement Duo

On his way, Yan Wang was thinking about how to make good use of this incident.

How to say it, these gods who have been suppressed by rules for a long time seem to have the same thinking.

The first thing they do when they suffer losses is not to seek compensation.

But they think about how to make a profit.

There's nothing we can do about it, it's God's will.

It’s still the classic old saying, the official position belongs to the heaven, but the profit is yours.

Since bad things have already happened.

Might as well take advantage of the opportunity.

You can't just get scolded for nothing when you report to God.

"It just so happens that a few demon kings wanted to cross out their names before, and the underworld wouldn't want to mess with them, so let's just do it on this monkey."

"There are also some treasures given by some immortals who refused to enter the heaven but wanted to live forever. This one is also included."

"Oh, right, there's something that a few Arhats from Lingshan have asked me to do."

The King of Hell hid in his room, holding the judge's pen in his hand.

Fulfill all the debts owed and favors promised over the years.

Then all the blame was put on Sun Wukong.

In order to prevent the Jade Emperor from getting suspicious, the King of Hell deliberately crossed out some extra names to confuse people.

After all preparations are completed.

The King of Hell then looked at the revised Book of Life and Death with satisfaction and nodded.

"Now the account is settled. After all, it's rare to see someone who dares to cause trouble in the underworld in ten thousand years."

Judging from his current behavior, he not only does not hate Sun Wukong, but is rather happy.

This is actually something that is bound to happen in the world of Journey to the West.

There is no need to think that balancing accounts is an exaggeration.

All settlements are based on a strict framework of rules.

All gods must do their own work according to this framework.

The gods cannot do whatever they want.

Under the constraints of various rules.

Naturally, there will be some loopholes caused by the rules.

The practice of balancing accounts came into being.

The principle is to use the rules to offset the loopholes of one's own mistakes and avoid punishment from the heavenly rules.

In other fairy worlds.

Even if there were Heavenly Court and Heavenly Laws, they could not be enforced to such a strict degree.

There would be no settling of accounts in those worlds.

Because in those worlds, every god holds great power.

You can do whatever you want within the scope of your responsibilities.

There is no need to strictly abide by the rules of heaven. It is enough to save face.

So balancing accounts is actually a good thing.

Because this proves that the heavenly rules are indeed strict.

The people below are willing to follow the rules in the general direction.

After all, balancing accounts is just a means of exploiting the rules.

It's not actually out of the rules.

If someone settles the accounts, it means they are willing to play by the rules.

This is actually a good phenomenon. At least the operation of the world can be guaranteed to be as stable as possible.

The gods and Buddhas in the sky would not think of overturning the table and breaking the rules.

Good people will definitely be rewarded, and bad people will definitely be punished.

You reap what you sow; this is the world of Journey to the West.

Not only is there a very strong Buddhist fatalism.

There are also the Three Pure Ones who symbolize the highest power.

It also has rules and systems similar to those of a human court.

This is the world where Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are united as one.

In this way, the King of Hell took his book of life and death and rushed to the heaven without stopping.

It was so fast that it only took a few minutes to reach the outside of the South Gate of Heaven.

I don't know if it's a coincidence.

The King of Hell and the Dragon King of the East Sea arrived almost at the same time, and they happened to meet at the South Gate of Heaven.

Don’t forget a very important setting in the world of Journey to the West.

That means one day in heaven is one year on earth.

To be more precise, one minute in Heaven is equivalent to 6 hours and 5 minutes on Earth. Even though Sun Wukong had already caused trouble in the Dragon Palace, he also caused trouble in the Underworld.

But the interval between them was less than twenty hours.

In other words, the Dragon King of the East Sea only needs to delay outside the South Gate of Heaven for a few minutes.

It just so happens that you will meet the King of Hell who also comes to file a complaint and settle an account.

"Yama, the King of the Netherworld, has come to see the Jade Emperor and has a memorial to submit."

The King of Hell came to the South Gate of Heaven.

He very politely handed over his memorial to the commander of the South Heaven Gate, reporting on Sun Wukong.

After hearing what King Yan said.

The Dragon King of the East Sea also looked at him curiously.

The Dragon King of the East Sea has been here for a while, but has not been summoned.

That's why he was standing outside the South Heaven Gate waiting.

The rules of heaven are very strict. Immortals and gods without special powers are not allowed to enter the South Heaven Gate unless summoned.

Even though the Dragon King of the East Sea is one of the Four Dragon Kings.

At this moment, you have to stand at the door and wait obediently.

The bored Dragon King of the East Sea was curious when he saw that the King of Hell made a report at almost the same time as him.

"Lord Yama, what are you doing?"

While waiting, the Dragon King of the East Sea couldn't help but approach the King of Hell and asked in a low voice.

"Oh, Lord Dragon King, please don't mention it. It gives me a headache just thinking about it. Just now, a wild monkey with powerful magic power came to my place."

"That wild monkey smashed Judge Cui's Yinlusi and even tampered with my Book of Life and Death."

"My account is a mess now and I don't know what to do."

After hearing the question from the Dragon King of the East Sea.

The King of Hell suddenly looked heartbroken and said while beating his chest and stamping his feet.

However, the speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention.

The more the Dragon King of the East Sea listened, the more he felt that the script looked familiar. He wondered if he had seen it somewhere before.

"Is this the wild monkey that the King of Hell is talking about?"

Feeling something was wrong, the Dragon King of the East Sea immediately performed a water mirror technique.

The figure reflected in the water mirror was none other than Sun Wukong.

"Oh? It's this monkey! How did you know, Lord Dragon?"

When the King of Hell saw the image in the water mirror technique, he shouted in surprise.

Then he looked at the Dragon King of the East China Sea with great curiosity.

To be honest, the King of Hell is a little panicked now.

After all, the premise for settling the accounts is that no one knows Sun Wukong's background.

The latter had no background and could only take the blame.

If the monkey has someone in heaven, settling the accounts will be useless and there is even a risk of being exposed.

Things like balancing accounts are only for those who have no background.

The core principle is to pass the buck.

People without any background can only endure it when they are wronged.

Not even a chance to explain.

But it’s different for people with backgrounds, they may not be able to take the blame.

Just when the King of Hell was panicking.

The answer from the Dragon King of the East Sea made him feel greatly relieved.

"Alas, Lord Yama, you may not know that this very monkey just ran into my Dragon Palace in the East China Sea and caused a ruckus."

"He not only stole the Dinghai Magic Needle Iron left by Dayu."

"They also looted all the rare treasures I was going to present at the Peach Festival."

"He almost robbed my East China Sea Dragon Palace clean, so I'm going to heaven to complain."

"It seems that the monkey must have first robbed my East China Sea Dragon Palace, and then went to cause trouble in the underworld."

"It's really abominable, really abominable."

When the Dragon King of the East Sea finished speaking, he couldn't help but beat his chest and stamp his feet, looking extremely heartbroken.

That's when.

The two men's eyes accidentally met.

Both sides understood the meaning in each other's eyes.

We are all old foxes who have lived for countless years, so who doesn't understand this trick?

This has almost become an unspoken rule: when you encounter a loss, you report the higher the amount.

Everyone knows it tacitly and will even cover for each other.
