Chapter 679: Hongjun
Chen Li couldn't help but ask, "Then why did we come here and why did we come?" ”
This is a question he has been thinking about, and he has asked the system many times, but the system has never told him the answer, but today, it is time to find out.
Bodhi Ancestor also slowly bent down and sat down on a flat rock, just when Chen Li thought he would tell him the answer, he asked a question instead.
"What year did you come to Journey to the West?"
"September of 2016."
Chen Li gave his answer without the slightest hesitation, and he will never forget this day.
Bodhi Ancestor nodded and said, "I am 1995." ”
"Is there any connection between this?"
Chen Li wondered.
Bodhi shook his head and said with a smile: "There is no connection." ”
"So, can you tell me why we came here and why we are here?"
Chen Li asked again.
Bodhi Ancestor glanced at him with a complicated look in his eyes, and then said, "Before answering this question, I need to tell you some other things, do you know that Pangu opened the heavens?" ”
"Of course, the story is a household name."
"That'...... Have you ever heard of Hongjun? ”
"Hongjun?"
Chen Li is not unfamiliar with this name at all, because the five supernatural powers on his body are all listed, and they all have a lot to do with this Hongjun.
He said: "In my previous life, I learned about the character of Hongjun in the gods, he is the teacher of the saints, the ancestor of the world, but the strange thing is that there is no legend of this person in the Journey to the West, I thought that since Hongjun is a god figure, it should be made up, but I met a lot of monsters on the way to the west, all of which have some connection with Hongjun, so I am not sure what kind of existence he is in the Journey to the West." ”
After Chen Li finished speaking, he looked at Bodhi with a puzzled gaze, Bodhi pondered for a while, and then said with a solemn face: "Then I will tell you that Hongjun does exist, but he is not the teacher of the saints, nor is he the ancestor of the world, he is the source of the disaster, Pangu, Suiren, Shennong, Fuxi, Nuwa, and many others died because of him." ”
"He's so good?"
Chen Li was a little surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, the nine tricks that Hongjun casually passed on to the monster were already supreme supernatural powers, so his ability was naturally beyond doubt.
Chen Li didn't interject and continued to listen quietly.
Bodhi said: "When Pangu opened the world at the beginning, the chaos derived the fifty avenues, these fifty avenues are the supreme power between heaven and earth, originally since Pangu opened the world, the fifty avenues should also be accepted by him, but unfortunately, after Pangu opened the world, it has reached the point of exhaustion, and just when he was about to accept the avenue, an earth dragon (cricket) suddenly rushed out of the chaos. ”
"This earth dragon is the later Hongjun, Hongjun made a sneak attack on Pangu, whose strength fell to the bottom, and snatched away the avenue that should have belonged to Pangu, but the world is impermanent, although he snatched it, but the avenue fifty was originally prepared for Pangu, so when Pangu was seriously injured and was about to die, there was still a piece into his body."
"This is the saying that the Great Dao is fifty, the Tianyan is forty-nine, and one of them is gone."
"Hongjun was unwilling to have a shortage of avenues, so he started the idea of Pangu again, and the two broke out a shocking war, and you also know the result of the war, Pangu fell, incarnated all things, of course, later generations only thought that he was exhausted and died, but they didn't know that he was exhausted and died in a battle with others."
"But fortunately, although Pangu was defeated and fell, Hongjun was sealed in the outer heavens by him, but unfortunately, after Hongjun fused the power of the forty-nine avenues, he gradually had the power to impact the seal."
"But he didn't dare to move, because the escaped one was still alive, and he knew very well that the only way to escape would be the key to destroying him, so even if he had the ability to break through the seal, he didn't rush to do it, he wanted to destroy the creatures between heaven and earth first, and then rush out without any scruples."
"So, in ancient times, there were nine tribulations, one calamity of heaven and earth was discolored, the Suiren took fire with their lives, the second calamity poisoned the world, Shennong tasted all the herbs, the three calamities of evil ghosts were rampant, and the earth was incarnated into reincarnation...... Four Tribulations...... Five Tribulations...... Six Tribulations ......"
"Until the end of the Eight Tribulations, all the methods he used to destroy the world were resisted by the creatures at that time, and he lost patience and began the Ninth Tribulation, and this Ninth Tribulation is the most famous one in the world, the sky has broken a big hole."
"This time, he wanted to directly rush through the heavens and destroy the world with his own hands, but at the critical moment of life and death of all beings, Fu Xi and Nuwa stood up, Nuwa refined the colorful god stone and cried blood to make up for the sky, and Fu Xi used his body to block the gap in the sky, and at the same time, the loose seal of Pangu was strengthened again, so since then, there has finally been a long peace in the world, although there are many disasters during the period, but compared with the nine tribulations he led, it is not worth mentioning."
After Chen Li listened, his face was shocked for a long time, he never thought that those legendary catastrophes in ancient times were actually led by this Hongjun.
However, he can't help but admire the ancestors of the past, in the face of the disasters left by such figures, those ancestors can resist stubbornly again and again, what kind of will and ability is this?
It's just that what does these have to do with the questions I mentioned earlier?
Chen Li looked at Bodhi suspiciously, and Bodhi finally answered him positively this time.
"It's a pity that so many efforts by those characters in ancient times still failed to stop Hongjun's birth, according to time, at most a month later, when Hongjun returns to the world, at that time, all living beings will disappear."
"This ...... How do you know? ”
Chen Li was shocked, but also a little puzzled.
However, Bodhi smiled bitterly, "These are already predetermined fates, how come I don't know?" Not only do I know what will happen in a month, but I also know what will happen after Journey to the West. ”
"After the journey to the west, all living beings have fallen, but Hongjun's anger that has been sealed for millions of years has not yet dissipated, and he has thought of an interesting way to torture sentient beings infinitely."
Chen Li's eyes were solemn and he waited for the following.
Bodhi clenched his fist slightly, and said: "He used his way of reincarnation to let the people after the journey to the west start the cycle of reincarnation, we will experience the catastrophe of destruction when every year 2032 comes, and then we will be reincarnated again, and so on, and so on, and so on." ”
Chen Li swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and after a while, he said in disbelief: "You mean, the people who have passed the journey to the west have actually died a long time ago, and we are just re-experiencing death infinitely in the infinite years?" ”
