With an 80% participation , Huang Fengguai, a prisoner whose cultivation level and sin value were not even the highest in the Book of Punishment, became the biggest leek in Li Anran's hands.
It is almost equal to the sum of the rest of the leeks!
Unfortunately, this leek is destined not to stay in his hands for long.
Li Anran stared at the image of the Great Sage Huang Feng on the Book of Punishment.
After a moment, the scene changed, and the life of the Great Sage Huangfeng appeared in Li Anran's mind.
At the foot of Lingshan Mountain.
In the deep forest.
A two-foot-long sable with golden hair was chasing a white-haired mouse with a golden nose.
They are all ancient strange beasts, and they have all attained enlightenment. However, due to their deep roots, they have yet to transform.
The sable has sharp claws and fangs, a slender body, and soft fur. When it jumps back and forth, it looks like a flash of golden lightning and is extremely fast.
The golden-nosed rat is slightly slower, but its advantage is its small size, allowing it to flexibly move through the cracks in rocks to avoid pursuit.
It also has the unique skill of drilling into the ground. Just by sticking its claws into the ground, it can quickly dig an underground tunnel to hide and escape.
But this mink is a natural nemesis of rats.
With its slender and soft body, it can easily get into rat holes, and with its keen hearing and sense of smell, the golden-nosed white-haired rat cannot escape even if it tries its best, and is instead constantly approached by the marten.
They chased each other and soon escaped to Lingshan Mountain.
The golden-nosed white-haired rat discovered that Lingshan, which was always heavily guarded by the Vajra Protectors in the past, was no longer visible today.
Because the sable was chasing it urgently, it plucked up its courage and dug a hole directly from the ground into the Lingshan Mountain.
The mink refused to give up and chased in directly.
But because Lingshan is so huge, the golden-nosed white-haired rat relied on its small size to drill around.
It soon lost track of its prey.
The sable wandered around for a long time, and when it finally found the golden-nosed rat again, the golden-nosed rat was already gnawing on a fragrant candle.
Immediately afterwards, the golden-nosed white-haired rat's body began to twist and change, and circles of hazy light continued to spread.
After a few breaths, the golden-nosed white-haired rat turned into a woman in white with a fair face, a silver basin, and cloud-like hair.
The half of the candle wick that she had gnawed off earlier turned into a pair of double-edged swords.
The strength of the two sides was reversed in an instant.
The mink was so frightened that it quickly hid in a corner nearby, fearing that it would be discovered by its mortal enemy.
The Golden-nosed White-haired Rat suddenly succeeded in transforming. While he was surprised, he also realized that he had caused a big disaster. He hurriedly transformed into his original form and escaped from Lingshan along the same route.
The mink was extremely envious and jealous, so it set its eyes on the glass cup on the altar and drank most of the oil in it. Finally, it was transformed into a human form as it wished.
That was the later Yellow Wind Monster!
The Yellow Wind Monster knew that he had caused trouble and was afraid that King Kong would hold him accountable, so he fled from Lingshan in a hurry.
Because he had lived at the foot of Lingshan Mountain since birth and knew nothing about the outside world, the Yellow Wind Monster just wanted to get as far away from Lingshan Mountain as possible. He then fled all the way to Huangfeng Ridge, which was called Huxiao Ridge at the time, seized the tiger monster's cave, and became the king of the mountain.
After tasting the wine and meat once, the Yellow Wind Monster was completely conquered and sent people to rob mortals as food every day.
In just one month, they had eaten up all the households within a hundred miles of Huangfeng Ridge.
At this time, Lingji Bodhisattva chased after him with the Wind-Fixing Beads and Flying Dragon Staff bestowed by Tathagata.
Lingji Bodhisattva's cultivation is not much stronger than the Yellow Wind Monster, but the Wind-Fixing Bead and Flying Dragon Zen Staff in his hands are the nemesis of the Yellow Wind Monster, and they capture the Yellow Wind Monster easily.
The Yellow Wind Monster thought that he was finished this time, but he didn't expect that Lingji Bodhisattva not only did not kill him, but did not even take him back to Lingshan to be punished.
"If you only agree to my three conditions, I will plead with the Buddha on your behalf. Not only will I not hold you accountable for stealing the lamp oil, but I will also allow you to stay in Huangfeng Ridge and return to the mountains in seclusion!"
"Let alone three things, even if it's thirty or three hundred, I will still follow the Bodhisattva's instructions!"
"First, I want you to stay in Huangfeng Ridge and not leave unless necessary. Second, I want you to blow a Samadhi Divine Wind in all directions. Third, you must go to the Southern Continent once a month and find 800 taels of unowned gold and 3,000 taels of unowned silver and hand them over to me."
"Bodhisattva, you let me stay in Yellow Wind Ridge, I can figure it out. But why do you want me to blow a Samadhi Divine Wind in all directions?"
“You don’t need to understand why, just do it.”
"That's not a problem. But the monthly tribute of eight hundred taels of gold and three thousand taels of silver is really too much . Where can I find so much unowned money?"
"This is your business. I just ask you, can you do these three things?"
"I can do it! I can do it! Bodhisattva, let it go, I will definitely do what I say!"
The Yellow Wind Monster looked at Lingji Bodhisattva, who was holding the Flying Dragon Zen Staff tightly in his hand, and was frightened, so he quickly agreed loudly.
In order to show his attitude, the Yellow Wind Monster, without saying a word, blew up a Samadhi Divine Wind in all directions, completing the second thing that Lingji Bodhisattva had ordered.
After that, the Yellow Wind Monster focused his energy on the third thing.
At the beginning, the Yellow Wind Monster was honestly looking for those ownerless treasures.
However, when it failed to collect enough gold and silver one time and was taught a lesson by Lingji Bodhisattva with his Flying Dragon Zen Staff, and discovered that Lingji Bodhisattva only collected the gold and silver without asking where they came from, the Yellow Wind Monster changed its strategy.
It deliberately took advantage of the merchants' boats to stir up wind and waves, capsize the boats and drown them.
In this way, the gold, silver and treasures that sank into the water naturally became ownerless.
However, as time passed, more ships got into accidents and merchants became more cautious, reducing the frequency of their ship trips and no longer carrying gold and silver with them.
The amount of gold, silver and treasures that the Yellow Wind Monster obtained through this method became less and less.
So, it began to think about cooperating with the monsters in the Southern Continent.
As long as these monsters eat and kill all the mortals' families, the property of these mortals will become ownerless!
The eight evil ghosts of the One-Horned Ghost King are one of the partners found by the Yellow Wind Monster.
Lingji Bodhisattva didn't care how the Yellow Wind Monster found the ownerless gold and silver, but these things could only be done but not said, and certainly not exposed in front of him!
This is also the reason why Huang Fengguai panicked and wanted to silence the One-horned Ghost King and others after he found out that they were captured by Li Anran.
As a result, because of the Nine Cauldrons Formation and Li Anran knew that it had the Samadhi Divine Wind.
It only used 30% of its full capabilities and was defeated by Li Anran and Roaring Sky Dog and taken to the Heavenly Palace.
However, although this Yellow Wind Monster is a little timid, he also knows the importance of things.
He gritted his teeth from beginning to end and refused to admit that he was colluding with the One-horned Demon King and his gang. He also never mentioned a word about the gold and silver offerings that Lingji Bodhisattva asked him to make every month.
He only said that he had sneaked out from the place where he was imprisoned, carrying Lingji Bodhisattva on his back, and accidentally bumped into Li Anran and Xiaotian Dog, and they had a conflict after a disagreement.
After that, it was sent to Tianlao by Zhijian and locked up in a cell by Li Anran.
"Lingshan really doesn't give anyone any reason to talk nonsense!"
The Yellow Wind Monster did not know the intention of Lingji Bodhisattva to let it blow the Samadhi Divine Wind in all directions.
Li Anran was outside the situation, but he saw it clearly.
With this Yellow Wind around, no matter how many mounts from Lingshan came down to earth to become demons, there would be a reason that was not perfect but absolutely justifiable.
Deliberately allowing the boy's mount to descend to the mortal world and become a demon was an unintentional mistake.
Directly reduce one's own fault liability to the minimum.
but……
"What does Lingji Bodhisattva need so much gold, silver and treasure from the mortal world for?"
Li Anran thought of the incident when Kasyapa and Ananda asked for bribes from Tang Monk and his three disciples after they arrived at Lingshan Mountain, and he secretly speculated in his heart:
"Could it be that the gold, silver and treasures of the mortal world have any special uses?"
