The county magistrate said, "This happened three years ago. In those days, when the little dog was visiting Linxiang, he met the bully Zhang Liang, and they fought just because they collided with each other. The little dog was beaten to death by that Zhang Liang, and when he was sent home, he was in a coma. I arrested that Zhang Liang in a rage. Later, I asked my servant about the cause of the incident and learned that Zhang Liang had hit people first, but my heart was even more angry." Three days later, the little dog died. In my grief, I sentenced that Zhang Liang to death, but that Zhang Liang shouted injustice before being beheaded. At that time, I didn’t pay attention to this matter. Now I think about it. Is there something else? "
The Monkey King said, "Since that Zhang Liang said that he was wronged, why didn’t you go easy on him and find out the matter slowly before dealing with it?"
The county magistrate said, "At that time, the little dog was beaten, and all the villagers in the neighboring villages saw it with their own eyes. When the little dog came home, there was even a card shark to testify. All the evidence pointed to Zhang Liang, and he had a criminal record. How could I believe that Zhang Liang was wronged?"
The Monkey King thought about it slowly after listening to it. The Tang Priest asked, "Wukong, since all the physical evidence of this matter is available, then Zhang Liang deserves to die. Could it be that the gods in heaven made a mistake?"
The Monkey King said, "Master, my old grandson didn’t believe that Zhang Liang was wronged at first, but I went to hades to read the book of life and death, and I realized that Zhang Liang was wronged. Zhang Liang didn’t kill the duke of the county, and all the evil things Zhang Liang did were due to past lives’s causal cycle. This was determined by heaven, not by the gods."
The Tang Priest was puzzled. "In that case, how was Zhang Liang wronged? What was the reason?"
The Monkey King said, "My grandson is also thinking about the reason, but he doesn’t know much. We need to find more clues."
The Tang Priest said, "You just said that Zhang Liang came back for revenge. Why don’t you ask him?"
"Master," said the Monkey King, "I’m going to find that Zhang Liang and find out the reason." Then disappeared in the county waiting house.
When the Monkey King arrived in the neighboring village, he summoned the land and asked, "Do you know where the murdered soul of Zhang Liang is?"
"Great Sage," said Tudi, "that Zhang Liang is full of grievances. The little god has limited mana and can’t go near him at all. All he knows is that there are deep grievances near his home."
The Monkey King found the Zhang family, but when he saw that the grievances in this courtyard really stuck together, the Monkey King went in and saw that this house was very deserted and a woman was cleaning it in the yard. When the Monkey King appeared, she was immediately startled. Just for a moment, she recovered her composure and asked the Monkey King, "Are you a man or a monster? What are you doing in my house? I advise you to leave quickly, or you will regret it. "
The Monkey King said with a smile, "Don’t be afraid, patroness. I’m a monk, but I look weird, not a bad person. Presumably the patroness is Zhang? "
The woman said, "My husband’s family is Zhang Liang. Are you here to settle accounts with him?" Said the back a few steps, carefully looking at the Monkey King.
The Monkey King said, "Don’t be afraid of the patroness. My grandson just wants to ask the patroness why your husband was wronged."
The Monkey King said this, and Zhang immediately ran back to the house. the Monkey King followed her into the house and saw Zhang hiding behind a memorial tablet in the house. The Monkey King looked at the memorial tablet and went up: the spiritual position of husband Zhang Liang.
The Monkey King was about to go forward again when Zhang was scared and shouted, "Husband, help me."
The Monkey King stopped suddenly, only to see a shadow appear on the coffin, and then rushed towards the Monkey King. the Monkey King punched at the shadow repeatedly, only to hear a sound of punching and kicking. After a while, the shadow retreated to Zhang’s front and slowly appeared. the Monkey King looked at Zhang Liang in the sky and said, "It’s you."
Zhang Liang said, "Damn monkey, it’s not enough for you to hurt me twice. Do you still want to hurt me?"
The Monkey King said, "Zhang Liang, my grandson didn’t come to harm you this time. He just wanted to ask how you were wronged in the first place, so as to rehabilitate you."
Zhang Liang said, "I don’t need you to take care of my affairs. Go, I won’t tell you."
The Monkey King said, "Do you just want to see that you have been wronged and don’t want to be rehabilitated, or are you willing to be wronged?"

Chapter seventy-two III Causality
Zhang Liang looked at the Monkey King coldly and said, "Although I was wronged, you killed me twice. These two resentments are more important than my wrongful death. Aren’t you going to the west to learn from the scriptures? Now that I have died here, if you don’t resolve my resentments, there will be a continuous drought in Fengxian County. I’ll see how to get there then. Reading at zero "
The Monkey King said angrily, "You are stubborn. I can only take you down first." The Monkey King said, he took out his golden cudgel and hit Zhang Liang.
Zhang Liang turned into a smoke, trying to escape. the Monkey King hit the smoke with a stick, and the smoke was immediately dispersed. Then the smoke condensed again, and the Monkey King hit it with a stick. The smoke dispersed again, so it gathered and dispersed back and forth. the Monkey King didn’t notice that Zhang Liang would increase her resentment every time she was hurt. the Monkey King didn’t know how many times she hit it. Zhang Liang’s resentment was extremely strong, and the Monkey King finally reacted and carefully guarded against Zhang Liang.
Zhang Liangju became a man and smiled: "the Monkey King, now I’m so angry that I can’t hurt you. I’ll see what you can do with me." Said the incarnation of smoke rushed at the Monkey King, the Monkey King hit the smoke again with a stick, and the smoke no longer dispersed, but split in two. the Monkey King repeatedly hit a few sticks, and the smoke changed into countless, filling the whole room. the Monkey King couldn’t see anything clearly in the smoke, and he couldn’t tell the direction, just like a blind man. Moreover, there was no sound in the smoke, and it seemed that the sound was banned. Countless fists in the smoke hit the Monkey King. Although the monkey couldn’t see or hear it, he could.
The Monkey King suddenly turned out with a somersault and ran away from the house. The smoke in the room condensed into Zhang Wen. The Zhang came forward and said, "Husband, this monkey is your man. Why do you want to play with him like this? "
Zhang Wendao said, "If I don’t act, how can the Tang Priest be attacked by demons? You will naturally understand why I did this in the future."
When the Monkey King returned to the county waiting mansion, the Tang Priest came forward and asked, "Wukong, go and find that murdered Zhang Liang. Can you get anything? "
The Monkey King was discouraged and said, "Master, that Zhang Liang was really killed unjustly. When my grandson found him, he was full of grievances. Even my old grandson can’t help it, and this Zhang Liang is an old acquaintance of ours. When he saw my old grandson, he didn’t tell me why. Instead, you want revenge on me. *”
The Tang Priest was puzzled. "That Zhang Liang knows us, but we came all the way west. This is the first time to come to Fengxian County. "
The Monkey King said, "Master, you don’t know, but that Zhang Liang knows us and has met us twice, but the first two times were his past lives. The first time he was the black-hearted boatman and the second time he was the shopkeeper who opened a black shop."
The Tang Priest suddenly remembered and murmured, "It was him. Amitabha, sin, sin. "
Pig Pig said, "Brother Monkey, since that guy has a grudge against us. It’s another spectre. Why don’t you just kill him with a stick, and we’ll go west. "
"Idiot," said the Monkey King, "that Zhang Liang is a ghost now. He won’t die as long as his resentment persists. My old grandson beat him, but it made him more resentful. Now my old grandson can’t surrender that Zhang Liang."
Pig eight quit to listen to so. Whispered to the Tang Priest, "Master. I think we’d better come to this trouble spot early. That Zhang Liang is our enemy. Now Monkey can’t do anything about him. If we meet him, it will be over. "
The Tang Priest said angrily, "You worthless thing, we monks should be merciful. Since Zhang Liang is our enemy, we should stay here to resolve this feud. Moreover, if it doesn’t rain for three years now, I’m afraid that all beings will be robbed, so I won’t be ashamed to meet the Buddha even in the Western Heaven."
Pig Bajie was discouraged and said, "Well, everything is up to the master. If we don’t leave, maybe that Zhang Liang will come to us for revenge tonight. Who can stop that guy then?"
The Monkey King said, "Master, that Zhang Liang has a big grievance in this life. As long as we resolve his grievances in this life, it will be easy to deal with him."
Pig Pig said, "That Zhang Liang can’t even surrender to you. How can we know what happened that day? Resolve this grievance. "
The Monkey King said, "Well, Zhang Liang, my old grandson can’t help it, but there is still someone who knows about it. As long as my old grandson goes to hell again, he will naturally know why."
The Tang Priest said, "You mean the Monkey King, the duke of the county who was killed by Zhang Liang, said," Master, only Zhang Liang and the duke of the county know the truth about this matter. Zhang Liang and I can’t help it, but I can still find the duke of the county and ask him clearly. Pig and Brother Sha, you two should protect the master, and don’t let Zhang Liang get him. My grandson will be back when he gets there. "
The Monkey King went to the hell again, found the king of Yan, and said, "Ghost, my old grandson wants someone from you to ask you something."
The King of Hades said, "Great Sage, the man you are looking for is the Duke of the County. Unfortunately, the soul of that man has not been reported to the underworld, and the headhunter has not found the soul of that man."
The Monkey King said, "Has this man’s soul been taken away, and you ghosts have not found it?"
"Great Sage," said the King of Hades, "the ghosts of the underworld are the best at finding dead souls. As long as they are within the Three Realms, they will certainly be found. That man’s soul is not detained, but the soul is gone."
