Chapter 92: Their Respective Beliefs
Early that morning, as the dawn light reached the Treasure Elephant City, people saw a few lines of large golden characters appear in the sky overhead. They are written in the unique style of the fairy family, neat and elegant, so they are more esoteric and difficult to understand. A few learned old men in the city interpreted it with the help of the remnants of ancient documents, so that everyone could understand that this was a warning given to them by the gods.
The gist of this oracle is to tell the people of Treasure Elephant City that it is precisely because they are not pious enough and still have distracting thoughts in their hearts that they will attract demon infestation. The gods save only those who save themselves. If one thinks that merely chanting and praying is worthy of the teachings, then it is opportunistic and will eventually be punished.
The bigwigs in the city discussed for several days, thinking that this was to remind them that it was not advisable to blindly rely on the gods for help, and they should take the initiative to eliminate the surrounding demons and take some practical actions to prove themselves, in order to get real recognition. So they began to send rangers to look for monsters, but they didn't find a target nearby that happened to be what they were capable of dealing with, and as for the legend that the Golden Horn of Power and the Silver Horn of Skill sat on Pingdingshan, it was rumored that it had been exterminated by the people who learned the scriptures recently, which inevitably made them embarrassed.
However, it turned out that their decision to act was correct, and the Heavenly Court saw their efforts, distributed a number of divine weapons to them, and told them that far away on the other side of the Liusha River, there was a group of monsters entrenched in the Snake Pan Mountain, waiting for their crusade. As for why it was the Heavenly Court and not the Buddha Gate, people didn't care too much, in their opinion, these were the supreme gods, and they were recognized by both the Buddha and the Jade Emperor at the same time, which made them feel quite valued and motivated.
It's just that Shepan Mountain is too far away, and it takes a lot of courage to run for a thousand miles, and it also means a huge consumption. The advance force of Treasure Elephant City was only temporarily hovering near the quicksand river, ostensibly to be fully prepared, but in fact, because the commanders were still hesitating. At this moment, Baoxiang City was suddenly attacked by another monster.
A few days ago. A strange-looking monkey flew to the Treasure Elephant City, and without saying a word, he scurried through the streets, frantically grabbing people. The monkey seemed to be a wave of steel poured with iron, the knife could not be cut, the gun could not penetrate, and the houses all over the city were hit by it, and they fell apart like tofu. Treasure Elephant City was in chaos for a while, and the guards tried their best to stop the demon monkey from taking half a step, and watched him snatch dozens of people away. I don't know what kind of magic he used. The people were all connected together as if they were stained with glue, and they were dragged away in a large stream.
After the count, it was found that the demon monkeys caught all women. They don't know what the other party's purpose is, whether they did it on purpose after finding out the situation in the city in advance, or whether they were shameless monsters who only hunt for women. In any case, this has brought a huge blow to the Treasure Elephant City, which respects women.
At this moment, a young immortal with six arms on his feet and a flame suddenly descended on the world and told everyone that the demon monkey was from Shepan Mountain. Ninety-nine women are being collected to refine a magic weapon of the Yin Dynasty. The people pleaded with the gods to uphold justice and help them subdue the demon monkey and save the woman, but they were refused. The gods say that it is precisely because of their hesitation. It was only after the military plane was delayed that the monsters of Snake Pan Mountain learned of their actions and launched a surprise attack in advance. This is the cause and effect of Treasure Elephant City's own, and it can only be solved by them themselves.
So the city lord gritted his teeth and gave the order to die. Send urgent reinforcements, rendezvous with the advance force, and immediately cross the quicksand river. Take the snake pan mountain directly. The immortals seemed to be very satisfied with their reaction, and gave them a lot of treasures, which greatly increased the confidence of the expeditionary force, and they felt that even in the face of that terrible demon monkey, they could take it in one fell swoop.
"Let's just talk about these cars. Don't look at the surface it's not much different from other cars, but it uses a nuclear-powered engine. Nuclear energy, have you heard of it? That's the power that can create the world! Not to mention thousands of miles, even tens of thousands of miles, you can easily run it. The fat man waved his hand, proudly boasted to the keel, and then patted him on the shoulder, almost not letting him lie down, "When I meet you, it is God's arrangement." Although we have a map, we are not familiar with the terrain here, and if we attack rashly, we are afraid that the monsters will take advantage of the territory. Well, I happened to meet the most suitable guide. After a good start, I have a hunch that this operation will go well! ”
The dragon bone smiled wryly and said, "Lu...... I'll draw you a road map...... Absolutely detailed, absolutely detailed! But the guide is ...... Forget it......"
"Why? You're also a victim of the demon monkey, and we're on our way to fight against a common enemy, wouldn't you want to join in? ”
Keel wiped the sweat from his forehead, thinking that he couldn't tell you the real reason. Even with the help of the gods, you can't beat it. The gods are really not kind, and they use these people as cannon fodder, and they don't know what kind of calculation they are playing. Or my god is reliable, and he pointed the way early, and everything will be drowned in the sea of blood anyway, and I don't have the heart to get involved in this.
But he didn't dare say it to his face. Although the dragon bone is extremely fanatical about his beliefs, he will not be ambiguous when it is time to recognize the situation. This group of people in front of them are loyal to the Immortal Buddha, and they come from a matriarchal society, if they let the other party know that they believe in other gods on their side, and then learn that the slave girls were kept in captivity in the steel factory in Shepan Mountain, they must not be eaten alive! No, these people should be dead by then...... Anyway, he won't go back.
"Your righteous deeds are very admirable, but the fear brought to us by those people is too great, and we really don't want to go back!" The dragon bone looked extremely painful, knelt down, and said with a crying voice. The fat man hurriedly stepped forward to help, but due to inconvenience, the keel was still lifted up by the entourage on the side.
He persuaded the dragon bone a few words, and at the insistence of the dragon bone, he no longer forced him, after all, it is difficult for a strong man to violate Buddhism. Then he asked the other fanatics, who replied in the same way, and in desperation, the fat man agreed to let him go, but asked the keel to finish the road map first. The dragon bone didn't want to cause more trouble, so he drew the route for them very carefully, and marked the locations of several dangerous passes according to his words, and then led the believers away.
By this time, the convoy had all passed through the stone bridge, and after a short pause, it continued to move forward. Before leaving, he also gave them some water to the keel as a token of gratitude. After this episode, the fanatics regained their spirits, packed up, and headed to the other side of the quicksand river.
After only a few hours of walking, they were still far away from the holy land, when they saw a beam of fairy light suddenly come into view, and a figure in a white robe appeared in the aura. He looked down at them with a nonchalant smile, his hands naturally open, as if welcoming them home.
The dragon was stunned, fell to the ground, and his hands trembled and made a cross, and said excitedly, "My god! My Father! You didn't abandon us! ”
When the others saw this, they realized that this was the true body of the god they believed in, and immediately bowed down one after another, and also made a cross gesture, shouting feverishly.
The god pressed his hands down, motioned for them to be quiet, and then said, "You don't need to say much, I have already learned of your experience, and you have suffered. ”
"We failed the test and let you down...... Keel bowed his head, "please give us another chance, and we will prove to you that we deserve to survive the end and rebuild an ideal world!" ”
"It's a pity that you only have one chance, and you have already been eliminated."
As soon as these words came out, the fanatics raised their heads in panic and defended him: "It's all an accident, and it's the fault of those weirdos!" ”
"They're amazing, it's not something we can overcome!"
"Lord God, if all this is your arrangement, it will be too harsh. If not, shouldn't you help? ”
"Yes, they are the culprits who destroyed the ark, they hindered the chosen one, and they deserve to be punished!"
"Shut up!" The dragon bone suddenly turned around and shouted, "You fools, how dare you be so disrespectful to the gods!" Do you know that making excuses and accusing the gods of doing nothing is what you deserve to say? Then he turned to the gods and said apologetically, "I'm sorry that these people are too stupid, after all, it's the first time ......."
However, the god directly interrupted him and said indifferently: "Enough, you have failed, accept your fate." After speaking, without giving them any chance to explain again, he waved his hand and emitted an aura, knocking down the affected people in an instant, unconscious.
Looking at the fanatics all over the ground, Zhen Yuanzi sighed, eliminated the camouflage image on his body, revealing his original Taoist robe and hair bun, and laughed at himself: "What the hell did I think in the first place to make such a group of troublesome guys......" Then he clapped his hands and asked the drones hidden everywhere to put away the unconscious people and transport them to the base hidden deep underground.
He spread out his hands, looked down at the tracker found from the keel, thought about it, put it back in his cuff, and walked in the other direction. (To be continued.) )
