#730 - Stolen goods? Again, I found this.
Amitabha is still standing there, feigning lofty principles and refusing to bow to the forces of darkness.
However, the Tathagata Buddha knows Amitabha's thoughts well, so he proactively advises:
"Teacher, now that the Journey to the West has been interrupted, Tang Sanzang has died, and the missing Great Reviving Pill needs to be provided by the Law Enforcement God of the Underworld."
"Also, the disbanded team needs to be gathered by the Underworld God Chu Hao. Why don't we take this opportunity to tie that Underworld God to our ship?"
"Although it may require some sacrifices, it can achieve two goals at once, turning obstacles into assistance, and preventing such great disasters from happening again in the future."
"What does Teacher think?"
The words of the Tathagata Buddha immediately aroused the anger of the three thousand Buddhas present, who spoke out in unison:
"Tathagata Buddha, this is inappropriate! That Three Realms Law Enforcement Underworld God is arrogant and domineering, colluding with the gods of the heavens to oppress our Western Paradise. If we bow our heads, wouldn't we become a laughingstock?!"
"That's right, our Western Paradise will never collude with evil, except for the Asura clan, the demon clan, monsters, evil ghosts, and other heretical demons…"
"Indeed, indeed, that Underworld God Chu Hao is extremely evil. How can we hire him for the Journey to the West? Wouldn't that be a great absurdity under heaven?"
"Shouldn't it be a great travesty under heaven!"
Because Amitabha was present, the three thousand Buddhas displayed their condemnation of evil in order to show their allegiance to the Western Paradise.
The Tathagata Buddha sneered in his heart, 'A bunch of idiots, you are contradicting Amitabha.'
As Amitabha's disciple, how could the Tathagata Buddha not know what Amitabha was thinking?
What Amitabha wants is to value harmony and surrender reasonably. The Tathagata Buddha is most familiar with this.
It's just a matter of saving face and pretending a little.
The Tathagata Buddha was just helping Amitabha to say it out loud, but he didn't expect these three thousand Buddhas to jump up?
"You must wipe out all the gods and saints in the Law Enforcement Hall, leaving no one behind."
After Amitabha finished speaking, the faces of the three thousand Buddhas changed drastically.
Damn it, you want us to fight?
And fight against nearly ten Supreme and Great Powers? Wouldn't it be better to just give us a rope and let us hang ourselves?
Immediately, the attitude of the three thousand Buddhas underwent a 180-degree change, and they all said with a smile:
"After careful consideration, we suddenly feel that what the Tathagata Buddha said is very reasonable. Tathagata Buddha, we will always support you!"
"Exactly, this is a clever plan of retreating to advance, and defending to attack. Tathagata Buddha's plan is brilliant. We were blinded by appearances and committed the sin of anger."
"Not only that, if we can take this opportunity to hire that Underworld God to lead the Journey to the West, turning evil into good, this would be a great merit! Our Buddha has thought deeply and thoroughly, and we admire him!"
"Moreover, that Underworld God is now the number one general of the Heavenly Court. If we can hire the Underworld God,
we can also divide and dissolve the Heavenly Court. While turning evil into good, we can also divide the Heavenly Court, killing two birds with one stone. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"
"Wonderful, wonderful, our Buddha's plan is to sow discord and turn evil into good. It is truly wonderful!"
The three thousand Buddhas said one sentence after another, making the Tathagata Buddha unable to cope.
The Tathagata Buddha was covered in black lines, knowing that this would be the case. These stinky idiots have always relied on their mouths to subdue demons and eliminate evil.
We are all in the same profession, who doesn't know who? Really…
Therefore, Amitabha was relieved and said to the Tathagata Buddha:
"You have some friendship with that Tongtian Cult Master and are also the person in charge of our Western Paradise. Why don't you go and discuss this matter?"
The Tathagata Buddha's face instantly darkened.
Why do all the dirty and tiring work have to be done by me?!
Especially at this moment of losing power and humiliating the sect, it is thankless. Is this to make me go over to take the blame and suffer grievances?
The Tathagata Buddha was furious in his heart, but he didn't dare to express it.
At a critical moment, Guanyin Bodhisattva said from the side:
"Actually, when I came, the gods of the heavens said that if Amitabha does not come in person, they will come over."
"Amitabha, I'm afraid you have to come forward to settle this matter."
Amitabha's face instantly darkened, gloomy.
"Is this true?!"
Guanyin Bodhisattva lowered his head and quickly said:
"I dare not speak falsely!"
Amitabha cursed in his heart, Damn it!
Why should I go over? Isn't it okay for the Tathagata Buddha to go and be scolded and blackmailed? Why does it have to be me!
Then who am I going to pass the buck to?
Helplessly, Amitabha had to wave his hand and say:
"Forget it, forget it, it's time to tell them to restrain themselves, otherwise they will really think that our Western Paradise is easy to bully!"
"Let's go."
Amitabha didn't say much nonsense and took the Tathagata Buddha away.
The three thousand Buddhas watched Amitabha and the Tathagata Buddha leave, and breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter what, as long as it doesn't fall on them.
…
At this moment, in the Law Enforcement Hall,
Chu Hao and the gods of the heavens were chatting happily.
The Tongtian Cult Master seemed to feel guilty for becoming a cheap master and for being stingy when he took out the Merit Divine Water when contributing treasures just now.
Therefore, the Tongtian Cult Master repeatedly said to Chu Hao:
"Little friend Chu, I see that your Law Enforcement Hall also has some connection with my Intercept Sect in the past. It seems that you are also implementing the method of teaching without discrimination."
"We are all like-minded people, which pleases me greatly. Please feel free to say what you need, and I will definitely satisfy you as much as possible. Please don't be polite."
Without saying a word, Chu Hao directly took out the treasures he had plundered from the Western Paradise and said bluntly:
"Of course, there's no need to be polite. Come, there's a black pot here that I want you to take the blame for."
Chu Hao placed a large pile of things on the ground with clanging sounds, which stunned everyone present.
The Zijin Dragon Emperor raised an eyebrow,
"Brother, are you wholesaling treasures here? The hundreds of treasures just now were fine, but how come there are so many more?"
Chu Hao waved his hand and said very shyly and bashfully:
"Oh, I picked them up, I picked them up. I occasionally got some, it's nothing."
The Jade Emperor next to him had sharp eyes and saw the big ruler in Chu Hao's hand at a glance. He suddenly exclaimed,
"Oh my god, isn't that Dipamkara's Measuring Ruler?! You picked it up, Your Majesty?"
Chu Hao smiled awkwardly.
The Jade Emperor saw the others and was even more shocked,
"These seem to be Buddhist treasures that have been refined for many years. What's going on? How can you have so many?"
Chu Hao was shy for a moment,
"Oh, I picked them up, I picked them up."
The Zijin Dragon Emperor reacted and suddenly slapped his thigh,
"I know, no wonder you didn't show up the last time we attacked the Western Paradise. You went directly to rob… No, to pick up things in the Great Thunderclap Temple!"
The Tongtian Cult Master was stunned for a moment,
"So, these are all stolen goods that you want me to launder?"
Chu Hao waved his hand and said with a righteous face:
"We are a righteous law enforcement unit. How can there be any stolen goods? Let me emphasize again, these were picked up!"
The Supreme Great Powers nodded thoughtfully,
So, you can be so shameless!
