Chapter 297: Fate
Three months have passed. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Olympus seems to have changed a bit.
Once Mount Olympus was majestic and majestic, it was the realm of the gods, and mortals did not dare to cross the thunder pool for half a step. Today's Olympus is much more relatable.
A monk sits on the bluestone of the top of the mountain chanting Buddhist scriptures, and the solemn voice is amplified by a high-fidelity magic amplifier in front of him, rolling down like spring thunder to the foot of the mountain. It is said that this magic megaphone is the work of the great fire god Hephaestus.
Since some time ago, the news came that Perseus, the son of Zeus, had invited a group of great heroes from the far east, and these heroes possessed the group blessing technique that can make people bless and increase longevity, and the mortals who came from all over the world gathered more and more.
The mortals gathered at the foot of the mountain now numbered in the hundreds, and they prayed silently, for themselves and for their loved ones.
Even a number of kings came in person, and their entourage included a large number of royal family members and generals. Perhaps they once fought and fought happily to defend their faith, but now they live in peace at the foot of this mountain without interfering with each other.
People tried to keep as quiet as possible, for fear of disturbing the order of the whole venue, but occasionally there would be a low exclamation from the crowd, one after another. Those who have experience know that it is because some of the old and frail or terminally ill people have regained their youthful vitality, so they are heartily amazed.
It is a place of miracles, where health is with everyone, and sickness and death can only be avoided.
――――――――――
In the Great Hall of Olympus, there is a plaque hanging above the door of the temple, which reads: "If I am coming", the inscription is the word "Zeus".
Just now, the Second Conference on the Enlargement of Spheres of Influence came to a successful conclusion. After everyone's deliberation, it was finally concluded that the time was ripe to invite a group of allies, and the task of running errands was naturally handed over to Mr. Sun Lao, the long-distance running champion.
Following Ai'e's instructions, he flew in a southeasterly direction, crossing the entire Aegean Sea, and finally reached the territory of Apollo, the god of light.
In order not to attract Apollo's attention, he transformed into a little bird and flew around the island, looking for a target. It didn't take long for him to discover Apollo's traces.
Today's weather is very good, the sun is shining, the breeze is gentle, and our big island owner is taking advantage of this good time to walk his cattle on a fertile meadow.
Wukong appeared and sneered: "I said, old man, you have a pretty leisurely life." ”
Apollo was shocked when he heard this, and when he saw the person clearly, he shouted, "Sun Monkey, you actually ran to my territory!"
Wukong said: "Joke, you can go to the Three Realms to make trouble, why can't I come to your territory?"
Apollo said, "Something to do with me?"
Wukong said: "We have a clear love and hate, and we are naturally looking for you to settle old accounts." Tell me, what is the algorithm for this account?"
When Apollo heard this, he suddenly laughed and said, "If you really came to find fault, how could you say so much nonsense? ”
Wukong said: "There is a good saying: Brother Monkey in the Three Realms, people talk a lot of nonsense!
Apollo said: "I heard that some time ago you drove away Ares and supported Perseus to be the new boss of Mount Olympus, is there such a thing?"
Wukong said, "You want to divert the subject?"
Apollo did not answer him this question, but continued: "It's a pity that Perseus is too junior to control the situation of the whole world. If I'm not mistaken, you're here to ask for cooperation, right?"
Wukong said: "It seems that I really can't scare you! That's right, I do have this plan here, but I don't know what you think?"
Apollo said, "Can I say 'no'?"
Wukong said: "Now that my Daoji junior brother is giving a wonderful Hinayana lecture on Mount Olympus, to increase people's blessings and longevity, you should know what this means, right?"
Apollo said: "If I am not mistaken, you are trying to increase the longevity of mortals to continue to weaken Hades's divine power, and finally achieve the goal of saving Tang Xuanzang, right?"
Wukong said, "That's right. Now that the war is raging and the population is declining dramatically, it is the gods who suffer in the end. Isn't it a joy that Hinayana Buddhism can bring happiness and longevity to ordinary people, and the whole world can return to a healthy mode of development? Why do you say no?"
Apollo said, "The whole world is so big, and there are so many mortals, do you want to reverse the situation with a copy of Hinayana Buddhism? And according to the information I have received, Kronus is about to break the seal, and even if your method is effective, it will be too late in time." ”
Wukong said: "We went to see your father three months ago, and he said that there are still about three years, and the time is still early." ”
Apollo said: "Now there are only more than two years left, is it too early?"
Wukong said: "It's because there are too many guys like you watching the fire from across the river, so Hades has a chance!"
Apollo said, "How can it be as simple as you say! There are some things you don't understand. ”
Wukong Qi said: "Why don't I understand?"
Apollo said: "This is fate, and the gods and kings of this world cannot escape this fate." I think that Kronus was able to overthrow Ouranos back then, and Zeus overthrew Kronus again, all because of this reason. A few years ago, Zeus thought that Hephaestus was the one who fulfilled the prophecy, so he imprisoned Hephaestus and imprisoned him on the island of Vulcan, but in the end, he still could not escape the curse of being overthrown by his own son. ”
Wukong said: "In that case, then why don't you join Ares and Hades?"
Apollo said solemnly: "I think I, Apollo, as a son of man, how can I commit a rebellion and harm my father?
Wukong said: "I heard that Zeus is good to you, and even plans to pass on the throne to you, but now he is in trouble, but you don't help, how different is this from committing trouble?"
Apollo said: "Oh, I told you that this is fate, even Zeus and his old man can't resist, how old am I?"
Wukong said: "Old man, I want to ask you something. ”
Apollo said, "You say." ”
Wukong said: "In the past, when Kronos was able to overthrow Ouranos, and when Zeus overthrew Kronos, were there any forces from the outside world involved?"
Apollo said: "As far as I know, no. ”
Wukong slapped his thigh and said, "Isn't that right!"
Apollo thought for a moment, and then asked cautiously, "You mean that your westward journey to this world is a variable, so this fate has quietly changed?"
Wukong gave a thumbs up and said, "Smart people! Communicating with smart people is really a pleasant thing!"
