Chapter 354: Statue of the Heavenly Emperor
Late at night, the Emperor Ziwei stood on the top of Penglai.
"Emperor, it's late at night, why don't you rest?"
The boy came over and asked.
"Can't sleep. ”
Emperor Ziwei looked up at the sky, and since he left the Heavenly Palace, his time had become so abundant that he often didn't know what to do.
"I was uneasy. ”
Emperor Ziwei said, "It seems that something will happen tonight. ”
His gaze was fixed on an emperor star.
It was the Emperor Star that evolved from the fate of Sun Wukong.
This Emperor Star did not shine, it was shrouded in a mist, and although it occupied the position of the Emperor of Heaven, it did not have the light that the Emperor of Heaven should have.
However, at this moment, the emperor star began to move, as if something would happen at any time.
What exactly?
Emperor Ziwei looked at the sky quietly.
At night, men, women and children run through the barren forest.
"Run!"
Several Dao aunts urged loudly: "If you slow down, you will be caught up by those man-eating monsters!"
As soon as they heard about the man-eating monsters, men, women, and children ran faster.
They ran wildly all the way, and then hid in a dilapidated Sanqing Taoist temple.
"There are three clear shelters here, and it's safe. ”
The Taoist sisters set up an enchantment in the Taoist temple and squatted on the ground to breathe a sigh of relief.
For the rest of their lives, everyone began to rest out of breath.
At this moment, a young Taoist aunt suddenly noticed that the old woman next to her took out a statue and prayed.
"Statue of the Monkey King!"
Seeing this statue clearly, the young Dao Gu's face turned pale.
She snatched the statue and threw it to the ground.
"How dare you take this demon statue with you!"
Dao Gu was furious: "This is a demon, he is the one who caused chaos in the world!"
The rest of the Dao Gu also looked at it.
Since the Monkey King took away the throne of the Emperor of Heaven, the monsters everywhere have no restraints, and they are even more unscrupulous and abuse everywhere.
The nearby villagers were almost all eaten by the monsters.
"This demon deserves death, you dare to carry its statue with you!"
The young Dao Gu blamed the old woman: "If you do this, if you make Sanqing angry and no longer shelter me, will you be able to bear it?"
"Sins, ...... Sins"
The old woman trembled and picked up the wood carving.
This is a wood carving that she has believed in for decades, how can it be treated like this.
The old woman carefully wiped the wood carvings clean.
"Didn't you hear what I said?"
Dao Gu was furious, and once again knocked down the wood carving, and was about to trample it to pieces.
The old woman threw herself in the footsteps.
"Without the Monkey, you'd be long gone!"
She said with a shudder.
"What?"
Dao Gu was stunned.
"Without the technology popularized by the virtuous monkey, your father threw you away back then, how can you have a chance to be accepted as a disciple by the Taoist temple. ”
The old woman said.
"You talk nonsense!"
Dao Gu was so angry that her face was flushed.
"I'm not talking nonsense. ”
The old woman stood up with the wooden carving in her arms and said, "How many children in the village are fed by the virtuous monkeys, and even your Taoist temple, isn't it because of the rice seeds that you can prosper?"
"You ......"
Dao Gu was speechless for a while.
She had heard her master say that if there were no rice seeds, their Taoist temple would not have much incense.
"Even if you're right. ”
Dao Gu held back her anger: "Now the Three Realms are in chaos, and it wasn't created by that demon!"
"These three realms are in turmoil, what does it have to do with the virtuous monkey. ”
The old woman trembled and said, "The immortals in the palace are all there, why didn't they come to help us?"
"They ......"
Dao Gu was speechless for a while.
"Those immortals originally stayed in the sky, one day is equal to a year for us, did they ever care about us?"
The old woman took the wood carving and walked alone to the outside of the Taoist temple.
Everyone was stunned.
The Taoist aunts looked at each other, thinking of the wood carving in her hand, but no one stopped her.
But not long after the old woman walked out of the Taoist temple, the young Taoist aunt finally couldn't extinguish her conscience and ran out again.
"I'm going to bring her back. ”
She ran out of the temple and eventually found the old woman under a nearby tree.
The old woman placed the wood carving on a stone and was kowtowing to it.
"You ......"
Dao Gu was stunned.
"Even if there are no monkeys, the monsters will still come. ”
The old woman seemed to know about the appearance of Dao Gu, and said, "When I was young, my parents were eaten by monsters, and those monsters were killed by your ancestors, but not long after, your ancestors were also eaten by monsters. ”
"Youkai appear again and again, and they are killed again and again, but after ten or twenty years, new youkai will come out. ”
The old woman turned her head and said, "Girl, where there are people in this world, there will be monsters, how can you cut it off?"
Dao Gu didn't know how to answer.
"I've known since I was a kid that the immortals can't help us. ”
The old woman said, "The only person who can cut off the monster is the virtuous monkey." ”
Dao Gu was a little stunned.
"Only he thinks about how to teach youkai. ”
The old woman said, "I don't hate him, even if I die here, maybe I will be born in the next life, and there will be no monsters in these three realms." ”
"Go back. ”
She refused Daogu's rescue.
Dao Gu hesitated for a while, but it was just such a moment of effort, and the demonic wind that covered the sky and the sun fell from the sky.
"Two more were found. ”
Two pairs of huge eyes appeared in the demon wind.
"The old ones are caught and boiled into bone broth, and the younger ones are okay and brought back to the eldest brother as a daughter-in-law. ”
As the two monsters spoke, two giant hands stretched out from the wind and grabbed the two people below.
The old woman sighed, then closed her eyes.
However, the next moment, a ray of light suddenly lit up from the ground, and the demonic wind in the sky began to burn as if it had encountered flames.
"Uh-huh!"
The screams of youkai were heard from the demon wind.
The old woman opened her eyes and saw that the wood carving in front of her was slowly floating.
"Virtuous, virtuous monkey ......"
She trembled and knelt down, and the monkey appeared.
"I am the Emperor of Heaven, born and changed by all spirits. ”
Sun Wukong's voice sounded from the wood carving: "From now on, I will preach in the world with my human body, and in front of you, I will be the statue of the Emperor of Heaven." ”
In the heavenly sound, the wood carving began to glow and transformed into a human form.
The old woman looked at the wood carving, as if she saw a face in the light behind it.
"Emperor of Heaven. ”
She fell to her knees and kowtowed excitedly.
Dao Gu looked at the light in a daze, she could see more clearly, and she could directly see the noble Qinghua figure.
She had seen the portrait of the immortal Buddha in the sky, but no one had ever had such a posture.
In front of him, the other immortals were as if they were mortals.
"Emperor of Heaven. ”
She knelt down as well.
All the doubts and anger disappeared in her heart at this moment.
How can a person with such a perfect posture be a demon?
And almost at the same moment, in all parts of the four continents, all the monkey statues emitted the same change.
In front of the shining wood carvings, countless people knelt on the ground.
People knelt and listened to the voice of the Emperor of Heaven.
Penglai, Emperor Ziwei looked at the emperor star in the sky and lit up.
The fog that covered it gradually disappeared.
