Chapter Seventy-Four: Long Bo Holds Up to the Sky, and the Turtle Asks for Life
The sky is falling, and there are tall men on top of it.
Although this sentence is said very easily, when it really comes to the time when the sky falls, where is the tall man?
If there was a Nuwa Sage who supported it before, waiting for the materials to make up for the sky, but now who is supporting the overall situation?
In Wang Cause's heart, many thoughts couldn't help but emerge.
"It's a Lombard. ”
"I have gathered three hundred and sixty Longbo people and asked them to take turns supporting the heavenly dome. ”
The sage Nuwa answered the question of Wang Cause and Effect in a timely manner.
"I see!"
Wang Yinguo listened to this explanation and suddenly realized.
Indeed, only the naturally tall giant race of the Longbo people can temporarily take on the heavy responsibility of supporting the heavenly dome.
There is a poem as proof:
Longbo has an adult, and he stands on his body.
A few steps around the universe, oh sucking up the clouds.
The sky is the roof of the room, and the North Sea is the basin.
One fishing and six fish were killed, and the two mountains sank because of land.
However, in this poem, the height of the Lombard people has shrunk considerably.
The current Longbo people, as Wang Yinguo saw when they went to the East China Sea before, are more than 3,000 zhang tall, and they really travel around the world in a few steps, and their breath is like floating clouds.
If it were up to them to support the heavens, it would be understandable.
However, although the Lombard people are tall, they are a bit lazy and greedy in terms of personality.
This time, if it weren't for the Nuwa Sage strictly ordering them to come out to work, I am afraid they would have run out long ago.
It is unrealistic to expect them to take the initiative to support the overall situation.
But in any case, with the people of Longbo coming out to support it, it can be regarded as solving the problem for everyone and buying time.
"Now we need to solve two problems. ”
"The first is to mine five-colored stones to make up the sky, and the second is to find pillars that can support the heavenly dome. ”
"As for the first question, we need to send more masters into the Sea of Chaos to find the five-colored stone. The second question is, do you have any good suggestions?"
Sage Nuwa is now the main force on the front line of mending the heavens, and she explains the reality succinctly and clearly, and asks questions to the other sages.
After all, whether it is mending the heavens or supporting the heavenly dome, it is a major matter in the entire desolate world, and it cannot be solved by a single saint.
"A saint must not enter the sea of chaos lightly. ”
"I, the Western Sect, am willing to send a generation of disciples to search for the Colorful Stones. ”
The two saints of the Western Church were the first to express their attitude.
Great merit can be obtained by quarrying stones to make up for the heavens, and of course they have no objection to their disciples making meritorious deeds.
In other words, it is also a crucial step in bringing Western religion out of the barren West.
If they have not made great merit to the desolate world, why should the other sects give them the territory to manage?
"I can also intercept the teaching!"
The Tongtian Sect Master also expressed his attitude.
Anyway, among his sects, there are a large number of disciples in the first generation, and their strength is strong enough.
Even if they enter the sea of chaos full of dangers, they may not be able to suffer a big loss, at most, let them bring more powerful magic weapons.
"The twelve golden immortals under the Yuxu Sect are all fine!"
The Lord of the Teachings, Yuan Shi Tianzun, also agreed.
"Senior Brother Taiqing. ”
"Do you have a suggestion for replacing the pillars?"
Everyone's eyes looked at the Taiqing Sage Daode Tianzun, who had not yet spoken.
The Taiqing sage cultivates the avenue of tranquility and inaction, and he does not like the things of fighting, killing and killing, and even for fear of trouble, he only accepts one disciple, that is, the Xuandu Grand Master who is with him.
Because of this, the other saints did not ask the disciples of the human sect to participate in the matter of entering the Chaos Sea and searching for the five-colored stone.
They pushed the second problem to the Taiqing Sage Daode Tianzun, hoping that this sage, who was the best at deduction, could give a solution to the problem.
"My disciple can enter the Sea of Chaos. ”
Who knows, the Taiqing Sage did not answer this question, but let the Xuandu Archmage also enter the Chaos Sea together.
His answer surprised the saints a little.
The Taiqing Sage was reluctant to answer the second question, preferring to let the only disciple enter the Chaos Sea to search for the Five-Colored Stone.
Is there anything wrong with this?
"Senior Brother Taiqing, how to solve the problem of Tianzhu?"
The sage Nuwa asked the sage Taiqing for advice.
The Taiqing Sage did not answer, but cast his gaze on Wang Cause and Effect on the side, staring at it without moving.
"Him?!"
"Ahem, Xuanyu Zhenren's cultivation, hehe, how did he solve this matter?"
The first to express skepticism were the Western Christians of the Zhun Ti Saints.
There is no way for his dignified saints, what solution can Wang Cause and Effect have as a parallel quasi-saint?
"Yes!"
The Taiqing sage didn't say much, but he said it very clearly.
When everyone heard this, they immediately stopped talking, but just looked at Wang Cause and Effect.
Since the Taiqing Sage is so sure, then everyone really can't doubt it, after all, everyone knows that the strength of the Taiqing Sage is far above everyone.
"Who's that, you really have a way?"
The Nuwa sage looked at Wang Cause and Effect and finally asked.
Psychologically speaking, the Nuwa sage really didn't believe that Wang Cause and Effect could solve this problem.
But now, it seems that there is no better way to not believe him.
"What can I do?"
"Poor Dao is just an ordinary immortal. ”
Wang Yinguo rubbed his face with his hand and categorically denied it.
This kind of thing is left to the saints to consider.
However, Wang Yin and Guo soon saw that the snake tail of the Nuwa Sage was pointed and raised again.
"However, I heard that there is a turtle in the North Sea, and it is extremely large. ”
"If you can negotiate with it and borrow a leg to support the sky, it should solve the problem. ”
Wang Yinguo hurriedly added, and then he was relieved to see the snake tail of the Nuwa Sage pointed back and retracted it.
There's no way, others don't hit people in the face, but the Nuwa sage is a professional face-slapping Yuan Hui (Yuanhui: the time unit of the flood famine, which is approximately equal to 129,600 years. Such a saint can never be provoked.
"North Sea Turtle?"
"If that's the case, it's a good choice. ”
"Very well, if this matter can be resolved, you should be credited. ”
The Nuwa Sage thought for a while, and finally nodded with satisfaction, and praised Wang Cause and Effect by the way.
In terms of her deduction, as long as a goal is determined, she can naturally calculate the probability of success in this matter.
At present, it should be no problem to choose the legs of the North Sea Turtle to be the pillar support.
But Wang Yinguo's face became not very good-looking.
He suddenly found that the merit value on his body suddenly fell very badly, and he felt a little like a big dive, and he almost fell into a negative number.
Wang Yinguo couldn't help but hurriedly ask the system, "System, what's going on?"
[System]: "The merit value has plummeted because you have mentioned things that you shouldn't mention, which has damaged your own merits." ”
Wang Yinguo was a little skeptical: "Could it be that it was because I said about the Beihai Xuan Turtle that the merit value dived? But why did this matter make me lose my merit so much? Whether it is to make up for the heavens or to find a substitute for the support of the Heavenly Pillar, aren't they all major events for the benefit of the flood and famine?"
[System]: "The reason is very simple. At present, the Heavenly Pillar has not been found, and although the merit is great, it still can't fall, but you propose to cut off the leg of the Beihai Xuan Turtle for no reason, how much damage does this have?
Wang Yinguo was a little unconvinced, "I've killed fierce beasts before, and I've never encountered a thing to reduce merit points!
[System]: "The Beihai Xuan Turtle is not a fierce beast in the wilderness, people have been living in the extremely cold land of Beihai since they were born, and they have not provoked any murder on their bodies, and they even have a lot of merit in their bodies, and you suddenly want to cut off someone's leg, isn't this a thing that damages merit?"
When Wang Cause and Effect heard this, he immediately felt a little remorseful.
No wonder the saints didn't mention this stubble, they had to talk about it through his mouth, the feeling was not necessarily that they didn't know about the Beihai Xuan Turtle, but they didn't want to damage their own merits.
"This group of old yinbi!"
"Sure enough, it's a thick-faced and black-hearted one!"
Thinking of this, when Wang Cause and Effect looked at a few more saints, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
But it's too late to say anything, and it won't help anyway.
The merit value deducted cannot be increased again, and he can only hope that after this matter is implemented, the merit that supports the heavenly dome can be distributed to him, which is enough to compensate for the current loss of merit value.
The saints continued to discuss who to send to quarry and who to send to cut off the legs of the North Sea turtle, and it was not over for a while.
Wang Yin and Effect were naturally in a bad mood because of the fact that his merit value was deducted, so he simply dozed off by Bai Ze.
That is, as soon as he closed his eyes, Wang Cause and Effect fell asleep.
"Uncle Junior!"
"You're hurting me!"
Suddenly, in front of Wang Yinhua's eyes, a gray-haired old man appeared and complained to him.
"Who are you?"
"What does it have to do with me, why do you smear people's innocence out of thin air?"
When Wang saw this, he couldn't help but ask in surprise.
He asked himself if he didn't know this old man, why was he accused in person?
"The old decay is a desolate turtle, living in the extremely cold land of the North Sea for generations. ”
"I live in a simple place on weekdays, be kind to others, and have never killed people, why does Uncle Xiao want to speak to the saint today, and want to cut off my feet and make a pillar of heaven to support the dome?"
The gray-haired old man stepped forward and cried to Wang Yinguo.
"So you're the North Sea Turtle!"
"This matter is indeed proposed by the poor Dao, but the saints have already made up their minds, and they just said it through my mouth!"
"It's useless for you to complain to me!"
Wang Yinhua figured out the ins and outs of the matter, and he was also a little guilty.
In any case, this bad idea did come out of his mouth.
"Ask Uncle Xiao to save my life!"
The North Sea Turtle pulled Wang Cause's sleeve and asked him for help.
"It's just a leg for you, not for your life. ”
"Besides, this matter is for the sake of the common people, and there is great merit for you. ”
Wang Cause and Effect comforted.
"Definitely!"
"This is the catastrophe of my fate, if Uncle Xiao refuses to save me, I will definitely die!"
The Beihai Xuan Turtle shook his head again and again, and pleaded with Wang Karma.
"Why?"
Wang Cause and Effect didn't understand why the Beihai Xuan Turtle said that he would definitely die.
Are the saints so unsophisticated?
