Chapter 2: The Upheaval of the Heavenly Court
......
I closed my eyes in despair, turned my head, and shouted, "Uncle Grass Mud!"
Before the giant axe arrived, the bitter cold wind blew on my face first, and I shivered, and was about to accept my fate. Suddenly, there was a shout in the distance: "Leave people under the knife!" and then there was a sonorous sound of gold and iron, followed by the sound of heavy metal falling to the ground.
When I opened my eyes, a long spear with cold light nailed the giant axe to the ground, and a white horse general rushed forward like a fly.
The black-faced Heavenly General and all the Heavenly Soldiers clasped their fists together and saluted, "See Marshal Yue!"
The white horse general's eyes were like torches, and he waved his hand and ordered: "Let him go!"
Two heavenly soldiers came up to untie the ropes. General Bai Ma Tian got off the horse and held me up, and said slightly apologetically: "Yue is late, so Mr. is frightened." ”
I looked at him angrily, "If you come a little later, just in time to collect my body." ”
"Yue was supposed to guard the Nantianmen, but today Taibai Venerable sent me to teach me face-to-face, so it was too late, and it almost caused a big disaster, and I asked Mr. for forgiveness. This heavenly general surnamed Yue politely pleaded guilty again.
Now that people have repeatedly made amends, it's not good to hold on to it all the time. I left the Demon Slaying Platform with the Heavenly General surnamed Yue, and asked casually, "Aren't the Four Heavenly Kings guarding the South Heavenly Gate?"
The Heavenly General surnamed Yue hesitated for a moment and said, "The Four Heavenly Kings are not here. Yue's name Feizi Pengju has been ordered to guard Nantianmen for 500 years. ”
"Yue Fei!" I exclaimed, almost jumping up, "You are Yue Fei Yue Wumu who is loyal to the country?" ", what's the situation? Yue Fei replaced the Four Heavenly Kings to guard the South Heavenly Gate, do you dare to believe it?"
"Mr. knows Yue?" Yue Fei was also stunned.
I grabbed Yue Fei with both hands excitedly, "I know you so well! How can I not know you, no one in the world doesn't know you." The majestic mountains and rivers are full of red rivers, and they are loyal to the country and Wu Mu. Eternal and immortal!"
"Sir, it's over. Yue Fei smiled indifferently: "I don't know what Mr. is called?"
"My name is Yi Chongtian, you can just call me Xiaotian. I followed Yue Fei and continued to walk, and asked a series of questions: "When did you come up? What are the Four Heavenly Kings doing? Have you seen the Monkey King? No, now it should be called Dou Victory over the Buddha......
Yue Fei smiled, pointed to a palace in front of him and said, "It's a long story, Mr. will go with me to see Taibai Venerable, and Tianzun will naturally tell Mr. ”
"Oh. "I honestly followed along. It seems that Yue Fei doesn't talk much, but he opens his mouth and closes his mouth to call me sir, which is quite respectful.
......
More than ten minutes later, Yue Fei took me to the front of the main hall. This hall seems to have been struck by lightning, and the three gold lacquer characters of "Receiving the Temple" on the plaque are also mottled with a dilapidated look. I felt strange just now in front of the Nantian Gate, this is the Holy Land of Heavenly Court, how did it come to such a decaying scene?
"Tianzun is already waiting in the middle, please come with me. A fairy boy in front of the hall waved at Yue Fei and turned around to lead the way.
The hall was empty, and in the middle stood a smiling white-robed old fairy. I took a closer look, and it was very familiar, with long eyebrows and long beards, a Taoist temple on his head, and a whisk in his hand...... This should be too platinum star, now it's called Taibai Zun, and it's been promoted.
"I've seen Tianzun. "I bowed like Yue Fei.
"Good, good. Tai Bai Xing said with a smile: "Xiaoyou's name is Yi Chongtian, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Come, come, tell me more about your ins and outs. ”
"The ins and outs...... Let me think. "The ins and outs of this are probably equivalent to the resumes of modern people, Tai Bai Xing is interviewing me. I thought for a moment and said, "My name is Yi Xiaotian, I am an actor, I took the Paradise Express at Disneyland in Shanghai, and accidentally rushed to the sky......
"Celestial Dynasty, Shanghai, Disney, Paradise Express?" Tai Bai Xing and Yue Fei looked at each other.
I looked at the two immortals who were confused, and asked, "Have the immortals in the heavens not gone to the lower realm to check the situation in the world for a long time?"
Tai Bai Xing pinched his fingers and counted, "It's been about five hundred years, no one in the world has ascended, and the gods can't go to the lower realm, so the news is completely cut off." ”
Five hundred years? I mentally calculated, "If you go back five hundred years, it should be the time of the Ming Dynasty, and the connection will be disconnected from that time?"
"Definitely. Tai Bai Xing said: "At that time, the emperor of the world was the Daoguang Emperor of the Qing Dynasty. Alas...... Since Qianlong declared Tibetan Buddhism as the state religion and lowered the rank of the head of Taoism from two to five, the Qing emperor's restrictions on Taoism have been continuously strengthened, and the incense in the heavenly court has become increasingly bleak......"
I asked in surprise: "You are immortals, you have great powers over the clouds and rain, and you will be affected by the human world?"
Tai Bai Xing explained: "Little friends don't know, the magic power of the gods comes from the belief of the world, and when the incense is broken, the immortals are difficult to endure. Moreover, the rules of heaven strictly prohibit the heavenly court from interfering in the affairs of the mortal world, so the gods and goddesses are helpless. ”
"Oh, that's how it is......" I thought of the fact that later Taizu gave an order to defeat all cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, and the mountain temple, land temple, and city god temple were all demolished, materialism, atheism became the truth, and GCISM became the only faith...... It's no wonder that Heavenly Court is now in ruins.
"What happened later?" I asked again, "Why is it that Marshal Yue is guarding the South Heavenly Gate instead of the Four Heavenly Kings now?"
"It's a long story...... "Tai Bai Xing recruited a fairy child," Xiaoyou went to heaven at the beginning of today, and he was frightened again, so he will rest and rest first, and it will not be too late to talk about it at the court meeting tomorrow. ”
......
Tai Bai Xing arranged me in the Suzaku Palace to the east of the Imperial Palace. This palace is quite complete, but it is a huge palace that I live in alone, and there are only heavenly soldiers and generals guarding outside the palace, which is very deserted.
I lay on the bed and thought carefully about this inexplicably thrilling half a day. Everything was so unrealistic, like a dream, but it was so real that if it was a dream, I would have woken up.
I don't know what happened to me in the world, whether I am missing or dead? My parents have learned the bad news, so I can't be heartbroken...... It's better to be dead, and if you completely break your thoughts, you have to get a compensation, and if you go missing, it's a big loss. I don't know if Xiaowan will cry for me......
I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep...... Nonsense! It's empty outside, so it's time to have lunch, right? Even if you don't set up a feast for me to wash the dust, you have to take me to the cafeteria to order a few side dishes to suppress the shock...... I got up as soon as I could, ran to the gate of the palace, and asked the heavenly soldiers and generals on duty, "What time is it, and hasn't you eaten yet?"
"This ......" A silver-armored young general was stunned for a moment and replied, "Heavenly Court...... The immortals don't eat the fireworks of the world, and Mr. just flew to the upper realm today, I'm afraid I'm not used to it. ”
No wonder when I was a child, my mother scolded me for being greedy for fun and didn't eat, and said that I would be a fairy if I didn't eat? It turned out that the fairy really didn't eat...... "Is there any water to drink?" I asked again.
"Sir likes tea, then I will go to the tea saint and ask for a pot of tea for you." The silver-armored young man arched his hand and turned away.
After the tea time, the young general of the silver armor ran in with a pot of tea and poured me a tea, "This is the tea made by the tea saint himself, Mr. drink it while it's hot." ”
I took a sip of the teacup, so-so, a little fragrant. It's boring to drink stuffy tea alone, so I called the silver armor player, "You can also sit down and have a cup of tea, let's chat." ”
"This ......," the silver-armored general said hesitantly, "the last general is on duty, and it is not good to leave his post without permission." ”
I thought for a moment and asked, "Who are you in charge of now?"
The silver-armored young general replied: "The last general was originally under the command of Marshal Yue, but when Mr. entered the Vermilion Bird Palace, Marshal Yue ordered us to act according to Mr. Yue's orders. ”
"Isn't that all there is to it?" I poured another cup of tea and slapped the table, "I'll tell you to sit down and talk to me over tea." ”
"Yes......" The silver-armored young man sat on half of his ass a little stiffly, more like he was squatting.
Me: "What's your name?"
Silver Armor Youngster: "The last general, Qi Delong." ”
Me: "Do you have a younger brother named Qi Dongqiang?" Qi Delong choked, what a loud name......
Silver Armor Youngster: "No ......"
Me: "How old are you?"
Qi Delong: "Five hundred and eighty-six this year. ”
Me: "......"
After talking about family affairs for a while, although Qi Delong was still sitting upright, he gradually relaxed and talked a little more.
"Do you know where the Four Heavenly Kings have gone?" I asked in a low voice.
Qi Delong's expression darkened, "In a battle five hundred years ago, the four heavenly kings all disappeared in the ......"
"The Four Heavenly Kings have all fallen?" I felt a huge shock in my heart, "Aren't the immortals immortal, living the same life as the sun and the moon?"
"Immortality is true, but the sun and the moon live together is an exaggeration. Qi Delong shook his head and said: "In fact, immortals coexist with their Dao, and when they are destroyed, they will die. And my Heavenly Court and that extraterritorial Heavenly Demon Dao are incompatible, and when they are enemies against each other, they naturally have their own casualties. ”
"What the hell is the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon?" I said hurriedly, "Let's stop asking and answering, you tell me from the beginning." ”
"Yes. Qi Delong said it from the beginning.
Qi Delong's words almost scared the baby to death...... You know what?
It turned out that after the Opium War in our world began, Heavenly Court was also invaded by extraterritorial heavenly demons. In that battle, both sides suffered heavy casualties, and all the gods fell one after another...... What are the five elders of the five directions, the five stars of the five buckets, the Taiyi Heavenly Immortals, the Jade Emperor Nine Bases of the Middle Eight Caves, the Haiyue Immortals, the Netherworld Sect Master of the Lower Eight Caves, and the Immortals of the World......
Anyway, the immortals who participated in the Queen Mother's Peach Festival back then were basically wiped out...... The Four Heavenly Kings, the Father and Son of the Great Heavenly King, the Erlang God and the Roaring Heavenly Dog, etc., were killed in the first wave of charges......
Later, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother drove the expedition in person, led millions of heavenly soldiers and generals, and all kinds of bodhisattvas and immortals fought to the death with the extraterritorial heavenly demons, or were wiped out...... Seeing that the extraterritorial heavenly demon was about to push the tower directly. The five giants of Taoism, the Three Qing Supremes, the Buddha of the West Heaven, and the Guanyin Bodhisattva of the South China Sea joined forces to form a Five Elements and Five Directions Mixed Yuan Infinite Realm, which blocked the invasion of the extraterritorial heavenly demons......
Qi Delong pointed to the sky outside the palace, "Sir, please look." ”
I looked up, and saw a faint arc of colorful light above the sky, like a grand glass cover reflecting the light, "This is the Five Elements and Five Directions Mixed Yuan Infinite Realm?"
Qi Delong nodded, "It is the Five Elements and Five Directions Mixed Yuan Infinite Realm formed by the five Dao Ancestors and Buddhas with supreme supernatural powers, great determination, great compassion, and sacrificing their lives for righteousness. It's just that the brilliance is getting dimmer......"
This means that the Taoist Sanqing, the Buddha, and the Guanyin Bodhisattva have joined forces to sacrifice their lives for righteousness, and what kind of infinite cover is about to be unable to cover?
After Qi Delong retired, I was like an ant on a hot pot scurrying around the house. No, no, this is a broken machine, and sooner or later, Heavenly Court will give someone a pot of extraterritorial heavenly demons. I don't have any magic power, and I don't have a gun in my hand, so I'm not qualified to stay as cannon fodder. I've got to hurry up! Hurry down to see if I can resurrect in place full of blood and blue......
I spent my days in the empty palace until it was dark, and sneaked to the Nantian Gate, where the left and right sides of the front were full of vast clouds under the moonlight. Immortals can fly, they can fly down to earth slowly. But I can't fly, and if I fall into a pizza, this jump will be funny......
Tease B, tease B, at least end up happy. If they fall into the hands of the Heavenly Demons, do you know if they like to stir-fry or braised them, and what if they want to make sashimi...... I took a sharp breath, ran two steps, and jumped!
