Chapter 54 The Big Footprint
said that Wukong calmly raised it for two days, and then basically recovered. As a result, the discussion began on the construction of the moon watchtower......
After discussion, everyone agreed: Wukong, Descendants, Little Mute, Hanging Gall and Fan Feng will be responsible for building the platform, while Wu Gang, Qiushui and Xiugu will be responsible for cooking, laundry, and delivering water!
Before the start of construction, Wukong and Hou Yi went to the market to buy some shovels, shovels, adzes, chisels, axes and saws and other applications, and Wukong also specially bought a shabby yellow calendar!
At night, under the dim oil lamp, Wukong flipped through a few pages and found that the nearest auspicious day of the zodiac was October 29, three days later!
So everyone waited for three days with eagerness and vigor! On the 29th, everyone gathered in the open space recessed by the tung forest.
Before breaking ground, a piece of bluestone was placed in the center of the clearing, on which nine simple tributes were placed. Wukong, descendants and others have poured incense to worship the sky, praying for God's protection!
At this moment, the sun was rising in the east, the morning sun was all over the sky, and the sound of dragons and tigers roaring suddenly came from all around! Suddenly, the nine-headed dragon leeches on the side also sang and shouted along with "Wow Wow", shaking their heads and tails......
At the very beginning, it was a good fortune, and everyone was excited! And the process of building the platform in the next place also fully confirmed that the sky was auspicious, and it was no accident......
The Moon Lookout was built for only a month, and it was largely completed!
The weather went from cold to cold, and gradually came to the season of bitter cold wind and freezing weather......
On the evening of November 30th, the remnant sun had fallen, and the setting sun was still unwilling to be lonely and reflected half of the sky, and at the same time, it also reflected everyone's smiling faces......
In order to celebrate the successful completion of the Moon Observatory, everyone lit a few bonfires on the outside of it and roasted two fat sheep!
As night fell, under the blazing firelight, the golden buttery roasted whole lamb exuded an alluring fragrance, which spread wantonly in the wilderness! The people who had already drooled began to eat meat and drink wine, sing and dance, and the innocent and laissez-faire bonfire carnival reached the first ...... in an instant.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, Wukong trembled, and couldn't help but sneeze "Ah", and then the descendants and others also sneezed one by one......
"Swarm...... Lord, ...... Look, the snow ...... Snowflakes! Morning glow does not ...... Go out, sunset...... Thousands of miles, no ...... I thought of it...... It's snowing......" The little mute shrugged his nose excitedly, raised his head to look at the dark night sky, and saw patches of cold white elves suddenly breaking through the darkness and sliding down his cheeks......
"Snow falls from the sky!" The descendant opened his hands and was very excited, "Brother Jin, this is God congratulating us!"
"What Brother Xian said is extremely true!" Looking at the ecstatic descendant, Wukong's heart suddenly went up and down, "Although this moon platform has been built, there are still many details that need to be tinkered, in addition, whether it can really realize the induction of heaven and man remains to be verified by Brother Xian and Chang'e on the night of the full moon on August 15 of the next year......
"Brother Jin is too humble! In the eyes of the younger brother, your wisdom is as high as the sky and the earth, and there is nothing you can't do in these four seas and eight wildernesses, three realms and six realms! The younger brother firmly believes that under your guidance, the younger brother will definitely be able to meet his inner son Chang'e on the moon platform...... "It may be because of too much drinking, and the descendants' trust and respect for Wukong has reached an unparalleled level for a while, and Wukong suddenly feels even more uneasy......
As he spoke, the snow became heavier and heavier, and in a short time the ground turned white! Everyone also became snowmen, pointing at each other, laughing, fighting, making noise, shouting, and one after another went back to the descendants to rest!
All that was left in the wilderness was the lonely Moon Observatory and a few uncurrent bonfires on one side of it......
With the goose-feathered snowflakes desperately burying themselves in the fire, the power of light became smaller and weaker, and finally the proud and stubborn bonfire finally turned into dead ashes, and then forced to join forces with the cold and merciless wind and snow, forming a black-gray ice cube......
It's an unexpected snowy night!Everyone was excited for a long time before they quieted down, and when they saw that it was midnight, there were already snoring around, but Wukong was tossing and turning, and it was difficult to sleep!
The unconditional trust of the descendants makes the pressure on Goku increase sharply: is the Moon Observatory really built so easily?Celestial and human induction, the platform meeting is really so simple...... How can the descendants confirm that they are the reincarnation of the great sage? And the gods and Buddhas and the six-character golden posts that give me a headache just thinking about it......
Alas, there are thousands of threads that can't be sorted out, and thousands of threads that can't be thought of!
Wukong cursed in his heart, trying to subdue another thought with one thought, but the result of fighting left and right was like carrying snow to fill a well and adding fuel to the fire......!
Gradually, Wukong got tired of counting! Even he didn't understand how the sleepiness that had been retreating suddenly aggressively persuaded the stubborn stubbornness! In a drowsiness, Wukong let go of everything and entered an empty ......
This awakening Wukong slept soundly, and it was not until dawn that the noise of the little mute and the fan barely woke his ears......
"What do you say, little mute, do you dare to compose poetry? Have you forgotten the 'Vinegar on the Short Matsuoka?'" Fan Feng laughed.
"Hey, fan...... Wind, how do you ...... What's the old one...... Put the pot without ...... Which ...... Pots?short ...... Matsuoka does not ...... It's a demon ...... The Tao is bad, I ...... Shi Da ...... That's it!" The little mute said eloquently, "Today...... The sky is not ...... By the way, you didn't ...... last night Listen to the ...... Brother said, this ...... Chang Ruixue is an old ...... God give me ...... Our gifts, that's why I ...... Xingdafa, with snow ...... As a theme, make a ...... a song of seven ...... Quatrain, and ...... And, no...... It's my boast...... Wolf talk, talk...... Big talk, I'm ...... The first seven masterpieces...... Come out to flow...... Fang Bai ...... worldly!"
"Ah, what about a hundred generations?" Fan Feng pretended to be surprised and said: "Little dumb, fortunately you are bragging about a cow, if you blow the nine-headed dragon leech, I am afraid that Mr. Descendant, that ancient divine beast, will go to the sky!"
"Bah, what are you ...... What do you think of it...... Isn't it anyone?" The little mute cried out, "I'm still ...... Just tell ...... Sue you, fan ...... Wind, I'm ...... First 7 ...... It's not just about ...... Snow as the theme, and ...... And it's a chant...... Snow doesn't ...... See the snow!"
"What do you mean that Yongxue doesn't see snow?" out of curiosity, Hangdan, who had just been woken up, couldn't help but ask.
"The so-called chant...... Snow doesn't ...... When you see snow, you ...... That is, the meaning of the poem...... Thinking is singing...... Snow, but pass...... But it doesn't ...... With a ...... "The little mute said triumphantly.
"Yes, little mute, are you really so learned? But after so long, why haven't I found out? Why don't we make a bet?" Fan Feng paused for a moment and said, "If you can really make a seven-character quatrain that sings about the snow and the snow, I will ...... Immediately put on your clothes and go to the yard to clear the snow! But if you can't do it or don't do it well, then please go to the yard to clear the snow!"
"Okay! This bet is well played!" said to the side, "Little mute, hurry up, read your seven-word quatrain to everyone, so that Fan Feng can go to clear the snow convincingly!"
"Nian ...... Just read, big ...... Listen...... All right!" The little mute cleared his voice and said in a matter-of-fact manner, "God...... Previous ...... Katakuro ...... Boom, good...... Looks like a white ...... Facing ...... Throw down, grave ...... The head is more inverted than the steamed ...... The head of the ...... It's big, the well is big...... Hole ......"
"Haha, what kind of broken poem is this!" Fan Feng couldn't help but cover his head and laugh!
"Fan Feng, you're not right, the poem is still good!" Wukong, who wanted to sleep for a while, couldn't help but "poof" a happy sound, "But the little mute, maybe it's the foolish brother's shallow knowledge, how can I listen to this masterpiece that has been famous for centuries is not like a seven-character quatrain, but more like gibberish!"
"It's not gibberish, it's just nonsense!"
"Swarm...... Lord, make you ...... Wake up? me and the fan...... Wind and ...... What the hell is it! This ...... It's my ...... Listen to ...... To the first hit ...... Oil poems, touching ...... today Jing Shengqing, suddenly thought...... Get up!" the little mute watched everyone laugh at a little poem, and he was very satisfied.
"Hey, little mute, who is playing with you?" Fan Feng laughed: "We have agreed in advance, whoever loses will be cleared of the snow!"
"Sweep ...... The snow is swept away...... Snow!I'm ...... anyway I want to sprinkle ...... Soak in pee!" the little mute grimaced at the fan, slowly dressed, and opened the door to the courtyard.
"It's big...... The snow, so ...... Huh......" the little mute exclaimed, "the group...... Lord, ...... Hurry up, this snow ...... Where on the ground...... This ...... What big feet...... Prints, feet...... There are also words in the print...... Where?"
The little mute shouted loudly, waking up the descendants and Wu Gang in the inner room, as well as Qiushui and Xiugu in the wing. Everyone didn't know what strange things had happened, so they quickly got up one by one and got up and went to the courtyard......
At this time, the snow had stopped, and the sky was still overcast! The snow on the ground was very thick, and in some places it was no longer up to the ankles! When I looked up, I saw a series of neat and huge footprints on the white snow, which lined up from outside the fence gate to the center of the courtyard......
From visual inspection, these large footprints are at least three feet long and one foot wide. Oddly enough, the footprints are shallow and seem to have only stepped on a thin layer on a thick snowy surface!
What's even more puzzling is that all the big footprints back and forth are heels facing forward and toes rushing backwards!
Looking at the vague words in those footprints, it seems that the two footprints that are wrong are a group. After careful identification, everyone couldn't help but be surprised!
It turns out that in these big footprints, there are two identical words written over and over again: Jinshan Yinshan Phoenix Mountain, the great sage Qitian will be old at the end of his life......
