Chapter 108: The Old Man and the Statue

It's another weekend.

Late at night, in Zijing City, the capital of Jiuyou, lightning and thunder roared at this time, and heavy rain poured down. Dark clouds enveloped the city, strong winds blew to trees, cars parked on the side of the road sirens from time to time, and people on the streets were running around looking for a place to hide from the rain.

In the center of Zijing City is the famous Forbidden Palace, which was built more than 600 years ago, and its last owner was Aixinjue Luo.

At this time, in an unnamed hall in the northeast corner of the Forbidden Palace, an old man was reverently confessing in front of a statue.

The temple was built in the staff area and is not open to the public.

Nowadays, the Forbidden Palace has become a tourist mecca for the people of the Nine Shades, and the palace is so big that there are countless staff members.

The interior of the Nameless Hall is spacious, clean and tidy, and only this statue is placed inside. The statue is more than ten meters high, and it is a majestic middle-aged man with a resolute face, he stands straight, his eyes look into the distance, as if he is looking at the endless void.

I'm afraid that few people in the Nine Shadows Kingdom now know who this nameless statue is, but if the time goes back to five thousand years, on another planet, everyone who is there will know who this statue is.

He's Pangu!

In front of the statue of Pangu knelt an old man, who could not tell his age. He looked up at the statue and said excitedly, "Ancestor, please forgive me, please forgive me as a sinner." ”

The old man was not in the Forbidden Palace, but lived in a villa on the outskirts of Zijing City.

Tonight, the moon and stars are scarce, and there should be no wind, thunder and lightning. But when the first thunder flashed in the sky, the old man was shocked, and he looked in the direction of the Forbidden Palace from the lawn of his home, and his eyes were extremely frightened.

And a few seconds later, he appeared in the nameless hall.

Pangu's statue emitted a glimmer of light, a flickering light, as if it wanted to be brighter, but there was always an invisible barrier blocking it.

Suddenly, an ethereal voice echoed in the hall, and it made people feel that it had come from time and space.

The old man suddenly felt that the heavens and the earth were dark, the hall was gone, the statue was gone, he knelt in a void, there was no sky, no earth, no light, only the voice kept echoing.

"Find him and guide him. ”

"Find him and guide him. ”

……

Tears welled up in the old man's eyes, and he trembled with excitement when he heard the voice.

"Ancestor, please make it clear. ”

The old man still didn't understand what this sentence meant, and he didn't know who the "he" in this sentence meant.

"Find him and guide him. ”

"Find him and guide him. ”

……

The old man's question was not answered, and the voice stopped. One of the images in the darkness began to glow, but the same flickering images made it impossible to see what was inside.

The old man's eyes widened at the sight, but what he saw was a blur.

Suddenly, he stood up, and his body radiated a dazzling light, which did not shine in all directions, but towards the blurred picture.

The old man seemed to want to use the light on his body to increase the "brightness" of the picture, but no matter how strong the light shot from his body, the picture was only slightly clearer than before after absorption.

A minute passed, and the old man's body had become transparent, and his body seemed to be composed of countless rays of light.

Suddenly, a hint of goodbye appeared in his eyes, as if he had made a major decision. After this farewell, the black pupils and iris in his eyes instantly shrank and disappeared, leaving only the white sclera in his eyes.

The light on the old man's body also disappeared, and two rays of light shot out of his eyes, which seemed to penetrate everything, through time and space, through the past and the future.

The blurry picture in the darkness finally became clear.

It's an early evening, and it's the door of a large hospital. As usual, there is a lot of people and traffic. On a tall building behind the gate of the hospital, there are several eye-catching big characters "Zhongzhou People's Hospital", and in the center of the picture are three young people walking out of the door.

The old man didn't know who the three young men were, but the young man in the middle had the word "Yan" flashing on his forehead.

The old man was excited when he saw the word "Yan", and trembled all over: "It's finally here...... It's finally here. ”

The three people in this picture are He Xiaolong, Ji Tianci and Lu Manwen, and Ji Tianci is standing in the middle.

The old man asked into the void, "Ancestor, is he the Holy Son I have been waiting for?"

There were only three words repeated in the void.

"Guide Him, Guide Him ......"

The picture disappeared, and the light in the old man's eyes also dissipated, only these three words still echoed in this endless darkness.

The voice grew weaker and weaker, and the surroundings grew brighter again.

The old man was still standing in this nameless hall, but what was surprising was that he had aged a lot, his face was no longer as rosy as before, but a sallow yellow, and his face had become loose and wrinkled.

His eyes also couldn't be opened, and the pupils and iris in his eyes reappeared, but the whole eyeball was also dim.

The old man seemed to be dying at any moment, and the statue in front of him began to fall grains of sand, and slight cracks appeared in the statue.

The old man silently said to the statue: "The ancestors are above, and the guilty will definitely complete the mission." ”

After saying that, he turned around with difficulty and looked at the entrance of the hall.

He shook violently, bent over, as if it had exhausted all his strength to lift his right leg.

The right foot quickly fell again with gravity, and the old man only took a small step forward.

After a few breaths, the old man also trembled and stepped away from his left leg.

Every step he took was so fortunate that it made people think that he might never take the next step.

But a quarter of an hour passed, and he walked to the door.

Pushing open the door, he looked at the lightning and thunderous sky, and his eyes suddenly burst with brilliance again.

A straight lightning bolt suddenly streaked across the night sky of Zijing City, and this lightning did not bring thunder. The speed of the lightning was so fast that people couldn't tell whether it was split from the sky and hit the ground, or from the ground into the air.

The lightning is heading in the direction of Zhongzhou......

***

An hour later, a staff member from the Forbidden Palace arrived at the gate of the Nameless Palace. When he saw the sight at the door, he suddenly cried out in horror, and the horror was followed by a deep sadness.

"Ancestor, Ancestor......"

Soon, a crowd of people, men, women, and children, gathered here to drain the water around the nameless palace.

The old man was still standing inside the door, his eyes closed and his head bowed, and there was no longer any life in him.

His soul had dissipated, and his body could only stop here.

But the old man's heavenly soul and earth soul turned into a lightning bolt and shot straight into Zhongzhou.

The two souls of heaven and earth are fused into one, and this should be the realm above the void. However, there was no soul to live, and his fused two souls continued to wander outward. At this rate, in less than a day, the two souls will completely dissipate.

The old man paid for his life, just to be able to see a glimpse of the future.

***

The sky was bright, after a night of lightning and thunder, the whole city seemed to become much cleaner, the sky cleared, and the haze that usually shrouded the city's head disappeared, and people saw the blue sky and white clouds again.

And in Wuyang City, a thousand kilometers away, it also changed overnight.

Summer in Wuyang is followed by winter, and the temperature drops by nearly 20 degrees overnight.

……

In the "Maya Water Park", a group of handsome guys and beauties in the animation club are staring at He Xiaolong with complaining eyes.

"The weather forecast doesn't say that it will cool down today!" He Xiaolong picked his head, lowered his head, and said weakly.

The girls at the anime club have all their swimsuits and cameras and are ready to take some glamorous and sexy photos. But now that the cold wind is blowing, they all tighten their coats, and at most they are willing to row on the water and play rowing, and they dare not take off their coats at all.

"Now that you're here, let's take a walk by the sea. Ji Tianci smiled bitterly, breaking the embarrassment of the scene.

"Well, Brother Tianci, let's take pictures together, Sister Manwen, you have to give us the gift of God today. ”

"Yes, Sister Manwen, you can't keep possessing him, he belongs to our entire community. ”

……

There was laughter and laughter in the group again, and Lu Manwen also laughed. She understands that having fun doesn't depend on where you play, but on who you hang out with.
