Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#1720 - Do you think you opened the heaven?

When that clear, cold voice echoed within the Great Thunderclap Temple, all the Buddhas were stunned.

Many Buddhas, as if sensing some threat, actually took a few steps back in secret. Just hearing the voice made them feel uneasy and want to flee.

The Buddha, with gritted teeth, looked towards the entrance of the Great Thunderclap Temple.

"Hell God Chu Hao, you are going too far in bullying the Buddhas!"

The Buddhas looked over and saw Chu Hao dressed in white, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, leaning casually against the doorway. His eyes were filled with indifference.

"Little Tathagata, long time no see."

Bodhisattva Guanyin, seeing Chu Hao arrive in person, breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart was secretly touched:

Chu Hao must have felt that I would become the target of public criticism in the Western Heaven for delivering such cruel news. That's why Chu Hao came in person. He must be here to protect me.

Damn it, this bad man, he really doesn't let me have a moment of peace.

The Buddha fixed his gaze on Chu Hao, his face filled with coldness.

"Hell God Chu Hao, let me tell you, all the participants in the Journey to the West tribulation were decided back then. It was all the idea of the Sages. You, you, you, if you dare to defy the will of the Sages, I'm telling you, you won't have a good end!"

The Buddha was very tough, and he was also praising himself inwardly.

However, Chu Hao smiled.

"Oh? Grown up? Much tougher, huh? You didn't used to talk to me like this before."

The Buddha twitched the corner of his mouth, somewhat outwardly strong but inwardly weak.

"Hell God Chu Hao, you must know that this is our Western Heaven. We won't allow you to be presumptuous. You, if you dare to mess around, we won't let you stay!"

Chu Hao nodded, leaning against the door, a hint of mockery on his face.

"Uh-huh, I'm standing right in front of you. Why don't you try to do something?"

The Buddha's face darkened. You're just bullying me!

Do you think I dare to touch you? Do you really think I don't learn from my mistakes?

"Look at what you're saying. It's as if I'm a robber. After so many years, do you still have prejudice against me?"

The Buddha's face darkened.

"Is it possible that it's not called prejudice, but experience?"

Chu Hao rolled his eyes.

"You little Tathagata, you're really hurting people. You always use stereotypes and prejudices to bully people. It's really too much.

I'm here today not to extort or blackmail. I'm here to reason with you!"

The Buddha snorted coldly.

"I don't believe in your so-called truth. Are you kidding me? When have you ever been a reasonable person? Speak, what exactly do you want?"

Chu Hao smiled and said indifferently:

"I'm not here for myself. I'm here for my colleagues in the Heavenly Court. To put it simply, it's okay for you in the Western Heaven to ask them to be actors for you, but you have to pay them."

The Buddha's face immediately fell.

"You! You're saying that you're just here to extort! I'm telling you, not even a copper coin! This is the Journey to the West tribulation set by the Sages. If you dare to disrupt the original plan, you, you, you, you won't have a good end!"

Chu Hao smiled and took off his non-existent glasses.

"I see, you don't understand anything."

The Buddha was filled with a sense of crisis. "What are you going to do! This is the Western Heaven. We won't touch you. Do you think you can touch me?"

Chu Hao shrugged.

"It's not that extreme, but our Heavenly Court has always been fair. We do as much work as we're paid for.

If the Western Heaven doesn't pay enough, then I'm afraid it will be difficult for the gods of our Heavenly Court to work for you."

Chu Hao waved his hands, putting on a very matter-of-fact expression.

That's right. For Chu Hao, there is no such thing as reasonable or unreasonable, only whether you can afford the price.

The Buddha's forehead twitched, and he secretly cursed Chu Hao countless times, but he just said coldly:

"Hell God Chu Hao, I advise you to leave now and stop playing these tricks here! I, the Buddha, am by no means a kind person!"

The Buddha's face was filled with coldness, showing a strong attitude.

Chu Hao sneered.

"Little Tathagata, I'm notifying you now, not discussing with you, understand? I'm standing here now, and you can still talk to me. When I go back, it won't be so easy for you to find me."

The Buddha was furious.

"Bold and arrogant fool, the matter of the Journey to the West has already been decided. Even if you, Chu Hao, are arrogant, you can't cover the sky with one hand. Do you think the Heavenly Court is yours?

The Heavenly Court was established by the Sages. Even if I ask them to take action, they would never dare to disobey my decree!"

The Buddha's face was filled with gloom. Obviously, for the Buddha, he was determined not to let Chu Hao control him again.

Moreover, the Buddha thought very clearly. I can't control you, Chu Hao, but can't I control those gods in the Heavenly Court?

The Heavenly Court is so big. I don't believe that those gods dare to be as arrogant as you!

Chu Hao glanced at the Buddha and understood what he was thinking.

However, Chu Hao no longer dwelled on the Buddha's thoughts, but suddenly said:

"Let's not talk about this matter. Come, let me ask you, what do you think about the matter of the Future Buddha becoming a demon?"

The Buddha was still bluffing, thinking that Chu Hao would continue to bargain with him, but he was suddenly caught off guard by Chu Hao's change of topic.

The Buddha said with a cold face:

"Hell God Chu Hao, the matter of the Future Buddha was an accident. What does it have to do with you? Don't inquire about the affairs of the Western Heaven."

Chu Hao smiled.

"I don't think it's just an accident. The Three Worlds Buddhas of the Western Heaven, the dignified Future Buddha, actually became the Future Demon Ancestor. Even now, he is still occupying the mountain as king in the Little Thunderclap Temple, becoming a great disaster for the Western Heaven. Is this really just an accident?

Or is it that the Future Buddha Maitreya had some plans in his heart long ago, and even did similar things before?"

Chu Hao wanted to know the reason why the Future Buddha and Medicine Master Buddha betrayed the Western Heaven back then, and wanted to trick the Buddha.

However, the Buddha was also witty and just said coldly:

"Hell God Chu Hao, stop beating around the bush here. I still have the same words, don't inquire about the affairs of my Western Heaven.

The Future Buddha is loyal to the Western Heaven. We will make him change his mind. Please leave."

"We will meet again." Chu Hao smiled and turned to leave.
