Chapter 528 Bringing a Little Artistic Inspiration to the Gods
The Happy Arhat said angrily: "Who do you think the Buddha is? How dare you slander the Buddha in front of all the immortals? The Buddha is the only one who is respected in heaven and on earth!"
Wen Rui chuckled and ignored him, saying to the Jade Emperor: "Your Majesty, since the eldest is the Buddha, you can only be the second. From now on, we gods will call you Jade Second."
These were obviously disrespectful nonsense to the Jade Emperor in court, and Wen Rui said them so sweetly. At a time like this, there should have been loyal ministers who would have joined in the rebuke on behalf of the Jade Emperor, shouting something like "How dare you, Wen Rui, be disrespectful to the Jade Emperor!"
It’s a pity that Taibai Jinxing, who was doing this job, had been repaired by Wen Rui into his shape, and was now staying out of the matter as quietly as a chicken.
Taibai Jinxing's substitute, the King of Heaven Li Jing, was also in a trance, his eyes were wandering, and he pretended to be distracted and didn't hear.
The Jade Emperor waited awkwardly for a while, but no one spoke. He had no choice but to speak up and scolded them himself: "Stop talking nonsense!"
"Did you hear that?" Wen Rui took over the conversation and shouted at Huanxi Luohan, "Your Majesty told you to stop talking nonsense. In front of His Majesty, if you have the guts, say it again, who is the most respected in heaven and earth, the Buddha or the Jade Emperor?"
"You! You are a clever and cunning person, spreading rumors!"
Happy Arhat had a conflicted look on his face, as he was controlled by Wen Rui's words. He did not dare to accuse Wen Rui of being disrespectful to the Buddha in front of the Jade Emperor.
Wen Rui didn't want to let him go, and said aggressively: "I'm asking you, who is the Buddha?"
The happy arhat could only clasp his hands together, hang his head and remain silent, unable to utter a single word.
"You yourself can't even clearly explain who the Buddha is, so how can it be considered slandering Buddha if I ask you a question?"
Wen Rui sneered, "You are just throwing dirty water, making up rumors and accusing others without thinking. This is the Heavenly Palace, not Lingshan. First, you need to understand your identity and strength and position, correct your attitude, and think about it. When you get to the Heavenly Palace, according to the principle of territorial jurisdiction, if you violate the Heavenly Law, I will arrest you and put you in the Heavenly Prison to punish you!"
"Your Majesty, I heard that the Emperor bullies others by taking advantage of his power. Doesn't Heaven allow Buddhist disciples to reason with him?"
After these few words of verbal confrontation, Joyful Bodhisattva experienced Wen Rui's sharp teeth and knew that this guy could do what he said, so he stopped fighting with him and turned to the Jade Emperor.
The Jade Emperor said solemnly, "Emperor Wen, please speak properly. I am questioning you now. The things your followers in the mortal world have created have damaged the alliance relationship between the Heavenly Court and Lingshan. You must take responsibility for this."
"Your Majesty, seeing is believing, hearing is not. We should not take things too seriously. Let's play those movies in court to see whether what they show is fiction or reality."
Wen Rui calmly replied, "I beg your majesty to agree. I will play it live right away. Otherwise, why are you asking? You just accept the nickname of Yu Lao Er and listen to Lingshan's words. Then you can give me a false charge of betraying the ministers of the Heavenly Court to please the Buddha."
"Your Majesty, monks do not tell lies. Everything I said is true. The Buddha has already made his judgment on this. The Buddha's words are all truth. How can they be false?"
Happy Arhat quickly argued, "Those bizarre and evil films shot by Wenrui's followers are designed to seduce people. The content is vulgar and inferior, and it is not worth watching. How can they be broadcast in such a refined place and pollute the eyes of the gods?"
Wen Rui said gloomily, "I will translate what he said. What he meant is that Your Majesty must listen to him and distinguish between the big and small princes. The second prince cannot question the first prince."
"That's not what I meant!"
Huanxi Luohan didn't want to pay attention to Wen Rui, but he couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Don't misinterpret and slander me!"
The Jade Emperor held his forehead and thought for a moment, then said, "I have my own fair judgment. Your Majesty, I have approved your request."
Wen Rui was secretly proud in his heart. The biggest weakness of gods and Buddhas was that they were too concerned about their reputation. With such words said in front of all the gods, how could the Jade Emperor not agree?
If he refused, he would admit that he was Jade Second. If the Buddha said east, he would not dare to go west. He patted his chest, and the portal to the secret realm opened. Several Ultron robots came out carrying projection equipment, and they efficiently set up the movie screen in the Lingxiao Palace and installed the projection equipment.
The gods are all super patient immortals. Wen Rui's carefully selected "Western Religious Black Material Stories Series of Film and Television Complete Collection" began to be broadcast in this way.
The first film to be shown was the feature film "Sister Drums", which tells the story of a pair of little sisters at the foot of the snowy mountains...
The film begins by showing the sisters' carefree childhood. The two sisters depend on each other for survival. Although they are serfs and live a hard life, they love each other deeply, which fully reflects the reality that ordinary people have to rely on family affection to survive in harsh environments.
The beautiful scenery of snow-capped mountains and the purest and warmest family affection of mortals are the themes to be expressed at the beginning. The new director of the School of Art of Liberty City University is very skilled in shooting techniques and technology, and the narrative rhythm is very attractive.
Then, the story enters the second stage, where the sisters are met by a lama in a snowy mountain temple. The lama admires their purity and beauty and wants to present these most beautiful things in the world to the Buddha.
So the lama came and wanted to take one of them away, saying that he would make her a saint.
In order to protect her younger sister, the elder sister took the initiative to step forward and pretended to be delighted about this opportunity, saying that it was a boundless honor.
The younger sister didn't understand and thought her elder sister was trying to steal her things, but she was no match for her elder sister who was sensible and knew what to say to please the lama.
So my sister was taken away by the lamas.
As time went by, the younger sister missed her older sister and had been looking for her whereabouts.
Finally one day, she saw her sister from afar in the Snow Mountain Temple.
At this time, the elder sister was well-fed and had fair skin and beautiful looks, looking like a tribal princess.
The younger sister wanted to go up to her and recognize her, but the older sister pretended not to know her, and didn't listen to her or speak to her.
No matter how the younger sister explained, the older sister seemed to be unaware until the guardian monk drove her away.
The younger sister thought that her elder sister had snatched away her fate and the qualification to enter the temple and be canonized as a saint. She was very disappointed with her elder sister and even felt resentment towards her.

Finally, the younger sister was looking for her sister in the vast snow, but she heard bursts of drum sounds coming from the sky, as if her sister was talking to her.
……
Gods may not necessarily be able to empathize with mortals, but the works of graduates from the School of Art at Liberty City University are well-made, with beautiful images and moving episodes, and are of high appreciation value.
This series of works are not all meant to be negative for the sake of being negative. Some of them are just commercial films mixed with personal opinions. If you don't pay attention to some details, they are very attractive to watch for entertainment.
The group of immortals in the hall have very limited entertainment resources, and they seldom go down to the mortal world secretly to play. How could they have known that the mortal world has been secretly transformed by Wen Rui, and the art forms are so rich and colorful.
The charm of the eighth art gave a group of rustic gods a little artistic enlightenment, which was much more interesting than them being bored and having to play Go for hundreds or thousands of years.
