Honghuang: Eat a Hunyuan Daluo
Chapter 382 The Tang Emperor's Troubles, Jiang Liuer Exorcises Ghosts
Jiang Liuer's voice was very soft, but the hall was very quiet at the moment, so how could the people not hear him?
Li Shimin looked at Jiang Liuer, who felt an immense pressure coming down on him, making it hard for him to breathe.
A moment later, the oppressive aura dissipated, and Li Shimin asked expressionlessly, "Did you really see something?"
"It is true, of course. There are two ghostly figures behind His Majesty. They possess the same humanistic fortune as His Majesty. Your bloodlines are also connected, so the humanistic fortune protecting His Majesty is ineffective against them. Ordinary people cannot see them."
"Oh? How did you see that?" Li Shimin continued to ask.
"That's because I've been able to see things that others can't since I was a child."
"I see. Then you and your master may come tonight! If you can help me drive them away, I will reward you handsomely." After saying this, Li Shimin waved his hand, indicating that they could leave.
The old abbot and Jiang Liuer came out of the hall. He grabbed Jiang Liuer's ear and scolded him angrily, "You brat, what nonsense are you spouting? There are no ghosts around His Majesty."
"I'm not making this up, it really exists!"
"you"
“Alright, the child might have really figured something out,” Wei Zheng said, stopping the old abbot.
Upon hearing this, the old abbot snorted coldly and released his grip on Jiang Liuer's ear.
That night, two figures appeared silently outside Li Shimin's palace!
If anyone who had followed Li Shimin from his early years were here, they would be astonished beyond words.
Because these two figures were none other than Crown Prince Li Jiancheng and Prince Li Yuanji.
These two figures were transparent, with no ghostly aura surrounding them. Instead, they possessed wisps of dark yellow human aura. However, their eyes were dull and lifeless, as if they were obscured by something.
"The throne of the Tang Dynasty belongs to me, Li Jiancheng. Li Shimin killed his brother to seize the throne and deserves divine retribution!" the taller figure said sinisterly.
Li Yuanji, who was standing next to him, also said, "That damned Li Shimin, who killed his brothers, imprisoned his father, and seized the throne, is unworthy of being a ruler, let alone a son."
As they spoke, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji moved silently and sneaked into the palace.
Li Shimin spent the night in the Taiji Hall of the palace. He was not sleepy at first, but as the night deepened, for some reason, he fell asleep on the table.
The world in his dream was pitch black, devoid of light, and eerily silent. Li Shimin was alone, groping his way through the darkness.
After an unknown amount of time, Li Jiancheng suddenly appeared in front of Li Shimin, staring straight at him.
"Big Brother."
"Don't call me elder brother! I don't have a younger brother like you!" Li Jiancheng was furious. "Li Shimin, how could you do something as heinous as killing your brother? So what if all the nations of the Tang Dynasty come to pay homage? So what if you are the Heavenly Khan? It can't wash away your sins. After you die, you will go to the eighteenth level of hell, be boiled in oil, and be torn to pieces!"
Upon hearing this, Li Shimin's eyes showed pain; he truly felt some guilt for killing Li Jiancheng.
Seeing Li Shimin's pained expression, Li Jiancheng became even more agitated and was about to continue his tirade.
Suddenly a chanting sound came, and Li Jiancheng's voice disappeared. Li Shimin could only see his mouth moving, but could not hear what he was saying.
Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief, but the next second, Li Yuanji slowly walked into the dark space.
Li Yuanji's eyes flashed with a fierce light, his sinister eyes filled with resentment towards Li Shimin: "Li Shimin, I am your own brother! You can even bring yourself to harm your own brother? You are worse than a pig or a dog."
Upon seeing Li Yuanji, Li Shimin's expression darkened, and he slowly stood up, rolling up his sleeves.
Li Yuanji took two steps back and said sharply, "Li Shimin, what do you want to do?"
Li Shimin said coldly, "Yuanji, I think killing you with one arrow would be too lenient. Today, your brother will teach you a lesson."
As he spoke, Li Shimin rushed forward in three strides and began to beat Li Yuanji mercilessly.
The fists, as big as sandbags, rained down relentlessly, and Li Yuanji was quickly hammered into a pig's head.
Li Shimin said coldly, "Why aren't you getting out of here?"
Li Yuanji pointed at Li Shimin and said, "I will come back." After saying that, he hurriedly fled and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Li Jiancheng seemed to realize that Li Shimin couldn't hear him scolding him, so he also left.
After Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji left one after another, Li Shimin became drowsy and collapsed onto the bed, falling into a deep sleep. He didn't know how much time had passed, but when he opened his eyes again, it was already dawn.
Li Shimin felt refreshed and invigorated; he hadn't slept so comfortably in a long time.
Li Shimin was overjoyed and immediately ordered his men to invite the old abbot and Jiang Liuer in.
"Thank you very much, Abbot," Li Shimin said with a pleasant expression, in high spirits.
Upon hearing this, the old abbot looked ashamed and waved his hand, saying, "Your Majesty, this old monk was fine last night; it was all thanks to my disciple."
"Oh? So it was all thanks to the junior chef?"
Li Shimin then learned what had happened from the old abbot. It turned out that the old abbot had not seen Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji at first last night. It was only after the two of them knocked Li Shimin unconscious that the old abbot realized something was amiss.
Jiang Liuer saw all of this clearly. He told his master when to chant scriptures and when to perform rituals before driving Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji away.
All the abbot could do was drive them away. These two people possessed human destiny, and even a Great Immortal couldn't destroy their souls, let alone the abbot.
Jiang Liuer just didn't understand why Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were still here harassing Li Shimin. Shouldn't they be reincarnated? Was something holding them back?
While Jiang Liuer was lost in thought, the old abbot was already explaining the situation: "If His Majesty were an ordinary vengeful ghost, this old monk should be able to expel it using some methods. However, these three ghosts seem to possess some mysterious power that this old monk has not been able to see through. This old monk has tried his best, but he still cannot expel them. He can only ensure His Majesty's peace for one day."
Li Shimin's expression changed slightly upon hearing this. He then tentatively asked, "Does the abbot mean that they will come again tonight when he says that peace can only be guaranteed for one day?"
The old abbot nodded: "They have already pestered His Majesty, and they will definitely come again tonight."
"so what should I do now?"
The old abbot shook his head and sighed, "This humble monk has no good solution either."
Li Shimin's face was very ugly. This old monk was obviously very capable. Even he couldn't do anything about it. Who else in the Tang Dynasty could help him?
After a moment, Li Shimin seemed to have come to his senses. He forced a smile and said, "Abbot, there is no need to feel ashamed. You must be tired from your journey from Jiangzhou to Chang'an. Please bring a hundred taels of gold to give to the abbot."
At this moment, Jiang Liuer suddenly stepped forward, bowed to Li Shimin, and said, "Your Majesty, please don't be in such a hurry to send people away. My master may be helpless, but that doesn't mean I am." Jiang Liuer's words shocked everyone!
The old abbot quickly pulled Jiang Liuer back and scolded him in a low voice, "Jiang Liuer, are you out of your mind? Don't you know where you are? Is this a place for you to talk nonsense?"
After the old abbot finished speaking, he bowed to Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, this young man is ignorant of etiquette and has offended you. Please forgive him."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Liuer replied firmly, "I, Jiang Liuer, never lie. If I say I have a way, then I have a way."
Li Shimin immediately became interested and asked with a smile, "Then let me ask you, what's your plan?"
Jiang Liuer immediately replied, "Naturally, we will use the unique supernatural powers of our Jinshan Temple to exorcise ghosts and ward off evil spirits."
Li Shimin laughed heartily: "Good, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, your courage is commendable. Since that's the case, I will give you three days. If you can exorcise the ghost, I will reward you with whatever you want. If you can't do it, the gold I just bestowed will have to be taken back."
Jiang Liuer said confidently, "Your Majesty, rest assured, it won't take three days. One day is enough to resolve this."
Li Shimin nodded: "Alright, just tell us what you need, and the palace will do its utmost to cooperate."
Subsequently, the abbot and Jiang Liuer were arranged to live in the palace.
Seeing the old abbot's worried expression, Jiang Liuer smiled and said, "Master, please don't make that face. I really have a solution."
What's your plan?
"Since I can see them, I can beat them. I'll beat them into submission with my fists first."
"Ah? This is your method?"
"Master, rest assured, I will not do anything I am not sure of."
The old abbot fell silent once again.
Before we knew it, it was already dark. A bright moon hung in the sky, casting its cool light.
In a corner of the palace, the elegantly decorated, antique-style hall is filled with a unique atmosphere.
The old abbot couldn't help but ask again, "Jiang Liuer, do you really have a way to exorcise evil spirits and ward off evil spirits for His Majesty? Ordinary evil spirits can be exorcised with a snap of my fingers, but those two evil spirits last night were truly extraordinary. The aura they exuded was something I had never seen before. If you can't exorcise them, I will take you to see His Majesty right now and plead for you. We will then return to Jinshan Temple immediately, and this matter will be settled."
The old abbot's protectiveness was evident in his words, which moved Jiang Liuer deeply. However, he still smiled and said, "Don't worry, teacher. Jiang Liuer never boasts. Just watch tonight."
The old abbot sighed and said no more. He had made up his mind that if Jiang Liuer was also helpless against the evil spirits, he would risk his old face to protect his beloved disciple.
Jiang Liuer paced slowly in the hall, his mind clear as day.
Last night, when he was directing the old abbot to exorcise the ghosts, he had already learned quite a bit about the two ghosts. The only question was why they were in the palace and hadn't reincarnated.
If we can resolve this question now, the matter should be solved.
"Whoosh!" In the dead of night, a cold wind howled, and the gates of the Taiji Hall were blown open.
Two ghostly spirits slowly drifted in, their bodies the same as yesterday, but without any yin energy, only surrounded by human fortune.
Two malevolent spirits entered the Taiji Hall, their faces revealing ferocity. Without saying a word, they bared their teeth and claws and rushed towards the place behind the Taiji Hall where Li Shimin slept.
However, the two ghosts, halfway through their attack, seemed to have crashed into an invisible wall of energy, and with a loud "bang," they were thrown back.
Then the two ghosts let out a mournful cry.
Jiang Liuer rolled up his sleeves and walked over slowly, a mocking look on his face: "Want to scare the Tang Emperor? You'll have to get past me first."
The two ghostly figures, their pale faces filled with gloom, stared intently at Jiang Liuer.
"What are you looking at! If you're not happy, come at me!"
Jiang Liuer's provocation successfully enraged the two ghostly spirits, who roared and pounced on Jiang Liuer.
Jiang Liuer grinned, a bright smile spreading across his face: "Well done! Watch my Arhat Fist!"
As he spoke, Jiang Liuer spotted Li Jiancheng and suddenly punched him on the head, knocking him to the ground.
Then Jiang Liuer was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. In just a few breaths, he beat Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji until they were black and blue, howling in pain. Even the ghostly aura on their bodies dissipated a lot, and their figures became much more transparent. They no longer dared to resist.
Jiang Liuer looked the two ghosts up and down. He knew that it was not enough to just subdue them; he also had to completely remove what was trapping them.
Just now, when Jiang Liuer was beating them up, he had already confirmed that these two ghosts had indeed been left behind in the palace by something.
Jiang Liuer originally wanted to ask his master to chant scriptures, but for some reason, a memory popped into his mind. In this memory, he was an adult, and he was chanting incantations.
Jiang Liuer subconsciously followed along with the chanting, and a moment later, two streams of dark green gas flew out from above Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's heads.
As soon as this gas appeared, the human fortune in the palace surged. The immense pressure, comparable to that of a saint, instantly annihilated the two auras.
"Hey! Wait a minute! I haven't even seen what they are yet!"
Jiang Liuer's words naturally received no response. Humanity's destiny wouldn't pay any attention to him; he wasn't the Human Emperor.
Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, having escaped their predicament, regained their senses. Li Jiancheng glanced at Jiang Liuer before turning to look at the palace gate.
He seemed to want to go in, but in the end he did not go forward and flew directly to the underworld.
Li Yuanji, however, was filled with resentment, clearly unwilling to leave just like that.
Li Yuanji shouted, "Brother, have you forgotten what happened at Xuanwu Gate back then?"
Before Li Yuanji could finish speaking, Jiang Liuer kicked him away, saying, "If you utter another word, I'll send you to the eighteenth level of hell, never to be reincarnated!"
Jiang Liuer could tell from the color of Li Yuanji's soul that he was a born villain and would show no mercy when he attacked.
And that was indeed the case. Li Yuanji instigated his elder brother to kill his second brother, and then planned to seize the throne after both of them were severely injured. His behavior was simply inhuman.
Li Yuanji was given another beating, and this time he was completely obedient. But he didn't want to go to the underworld to be reincarnated. He thought that these two monks couldn't stay in the palace forever. Once they left, he would go and cause trouble for Li Shimin.
Jiang Liuer seemed to have seen through Li Yuanji's little scheme and said with a disdainful look, "Do you remember who cut off your head? Without that protective aura, I would have the Tang Emperor summon him to guard the door. Even if your elder brother were here, the two of you brothers together wouldn't be able to get in."
Li Yuanji seemed to have thought of something even more terrifying, and with a cry of alarm, he immediately flew towards the underworld. (End of Chapter)
