Chapter 498: Imprisoning Ksitigarbha for 900 Years

Emperor Fengdu didn't know where Sun Wukong got these questions from, but this matter has something to do with him, is it important?

Obviously this matter had nothing to do with Emperor Fengdu, and he had long been unhappy with Ksitigarbha.

If hell is not empty, I will never become a Buddha.

Nonsense, these are spies deliberately planted by the West in the underworld, and they are blatant.

After all, the oath made by Ksitigarbha Ksitigarbha has been recognized by heaven, and they cannot drive him away even if they want to, unless the innocent souls in hell are really gone. But will there really be such a day?

Emperor Fengdu said without hesitation, "I have balls."

Emperor Fengdu was about to agree, and the next moment Ksitigarbha also came out.

"Ksitigarbha has met the Yin Tianzi." Ksitigarbha also respectfully saluted Emperor Fengdu. King Ksitigarbha already knew this when Sun Wukong arrived in the underworld to find King Yama.

You know, you know, but Ksitigarbha is just watching a show. In his opinion, this matter has nothing to do with him. It is all the fault of King Yama for not handling it well.

But what he didn't expect was that the matter eventually involved him. Sun Wukong actually asked Emperor Fengdu to imprison him in the eighteenth level of hell for nine hundred years.

On normal days, Ksitigarbha would not have paid any attention to it.

But what time period was it now? It was during the Journey to the West to measure the calamity, and then Wutian ruled the three realms. If he was imprisoned in the eighteenth level of hell for nine hundred years by Emperor Fengdu, then he would not want to take advantage of these merits.

It was related to his own interests, and there was no other way. Ksitigarbha took the initiative to stand up.

"Ksitigarbha is not staying in the eighteenth level of hell, why are you here?" Emperor Fengdu asked deliberately, and there was another profound meaning in his words.

Ksitigarbha is such a smart person, so he can naturally hear the implication of Emperor Fengdu's words, and also knows that Emperor Fengdu is very unhappy with him.

But one thing is very good, and it is also an excellent traditional skill possessed by these Western Buddhas, and that is thick skin.

It doesn’t matter whether you feel good about me or not, but when it comes to my interests, I have to stand up.

Ksitigarbha said: "Emperor, I have only one thing to do here. That is that I have not made any mistakes. I also ask the Emperor not to listen to the monkey monster's slander."

"Yeah?"

After hearing Ksitigarbha's words, Emperor Fengdu gave Ksitigarbha a cold look and said, "Ksitigarbha is so confident, does he want me to provide evidence?"

Emperor Fengdu is telling Ksitigarbha that if you want to play tricks on me, you are not worthy.

When Ksitigarbha heard this, he was unable to speak for a moment.

He knew very well that the things he had done were not watertight. As long as Emperor Fengdu checked, he would be able to find out immediately.

Having said that, Ksitigarbha still refused to give up.

Knowing that he was in the wrong, Ksitigarbha naturally would not argue with Emperor Fengdu on a moral level. Instead, he said: "Son of Heaven, I once swore to the way of heaven that I would not become a Buddha until hell was empty. Therefore, I am a member of the underworld. Son of Heaven." You have no right to attack me.”

Ksitigarbha began to threaten Emperor Fengdu.

"hehe……"

Ksitigarbha actually dared to threaten him. Upon hearing this, Emperor Fengdu smiled.

"Are you sure? Do you want me to invite the empress out?" Emperor Fengdu looked at Ksitigarbha with an interesting face and said, "If you dare to threaten me, then it depends on whether you have the qualifications."

Sure enough, after Ksitigarbha heard the word empress, his expression suddenly changed.

However, Ksitigarbha was obviously still unwilling to give up.

King Ksitigarbha said to Emperor Fengdu: "Sir, why do you need to disturb the empress for such a trivial matter? Otherwise, I am willing to compensate my little friend and let this matter go. How about that?"

After Ksitigarbha finished speaking, Emperor Fengdu turned his attention to Sun Wukong: "Great Sage, what do you think?"

In the opinion of Emperor Fengdu, it would be fine as long as Ksitigarbha could convince Sun Wukong.

However, thinking of Sun Wukong's attitude towards King Yama just now, Emperor Fengdu only had one sentence in his heart to send to King Ksitigarbha. You are overthinking it.

Sun Wukong will never accept Ksitigarbha's advice.

After Emperor Fengdu asked, he heard Sun Wukong say: "Okay, as long as you give me the Eight Treasures Merit Pool from Lingshan, I won't argue with you."

Sun Wukong actually wants the Eight Treasures Merit Pool.

Upon hearing this, Ksitigarbha's face turned green, and even Emperor Fengdu showed a different expression.

You monkey head, you really dare to think that the Eight Treasures Merit Pool is the foundation of Buddhism. You want the Eight Treasures Merit Pool as soon as you ask. Where do you place the status of Buddhism?

Furthermore, it is useless to talk to Ksitigarbha about this thing. Even if Ksitigarbha agrees, Tathagata will not give it to him.

It can be seen that Sun Wukong really does not want to let Ksitigarbha go.

"impossible!"

As Sun Wukong expected, Ksitigarbha directly refused. He gave Sun Wukong a ghostly Eight Treasures Merit Pool.

"Then there's no need to talk." Sun Wukong waved his hand. He didn't want to tease Ksitigarbha anymore. It was boring, so he went on to say to Emperor Fengdu: "Emperor, you can take action."

"good!"

Emperor Fengdu nodded.

Seeing that Emperor Fengdu was really going to imprison him in the eighteenth level of hell for nine hundred years, Ksitigarbha was really anxious.

"Yin Tianzi, you can't do this. You have no right to take action against me. You need to report to me, Buddha Tathagata."

"Hmph! Tathagata, if you have the ability, let him come to my underworld to ask for someone, and see if he dares."

After saying that, Emperor Fengdu no longer gave Ksitigarbha a chance and imprisoned him directly in the eighteenth level of hell. Even Ksitigarbha's mount Tingting was the same.

It is said that Diting can hear the three realms, but from the moment Emperor Fengdu cast the spell, Diting was deaf.

As Ksitigarbha and his mount were imprisoned in the Eighteen Hells by Fengdu Emperor, Sun Wukong secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The reason why Sun Wukong had to imprison Ksitigarbha was that he was a little afraid of Ksitigarbha's mount, Di Ting.

There were several key plots later that would use Di Ting, so it was a good thing for Sun Wukong to lock Di Ting in advance.

After imprisoning Ksitigarbha, Fengdu Emperor looked at Sun Wukong again and asked, "Great Sage, are you satisfied?"

"Thank you, Lord Yin, I'm leaving now!"

Having achieved his goal, Sun Wukong did not stay any longer, and left the underworld after bidding farewell to Fengdu Emperor.

After seeing Sun Wukong leave, the Emperor of Fengdu looked at King Yama, with a look of disappointment on his face, and scolded: "Can you use your brain before doing anything? Even the Queen can't eradicate those Western guys, let alone you, who don't even know that you are being used by others."

Faced with the reprimand of the Emperor of Fengdu, King Yama didn't dare to refute a word, but just nodded obediently.

Seeing this, the Emperor of Fengdu stopped talking to him, King Yama was not a child, and didn't need to be repeatedly reminded.

"Stay away from this monkey in the future, this monkey is very unusual."

Finally, the Emperor of Fengdu reminded King Yama again.

This monkey is very unusual?

King Yama didn't quite understand what the Emperor of Fengdu meant, but he knew in his heart that since it was the Emperor of Fengdu who said it, it must be right, so just listen.
