Chapter 993 The So-Called Monkey King?
Mission success: reward item ability*1, skill point*3, physical fitness point*3, the selected person can return to the real world at any time.
At this point, the mission is over, but Anyang is not in a hurry to return, and what he has to do is far from over!
He is back in Henan County again!
Originally, of course, it was because when Anyang talked with Liu Zhuangshi in the broken hospital, Liu Zhuangshi inadvertently mentioned that there was a treasure born in Henan County called the Moonlight Treasure Box, and he wanted to explore the truth.
If there really is a moonlight treasure box, and it is really the moonlight treasure box he imagined, then he feels that it is necessary to go to five hundred years ago to see what the heaven and Buddhism looked like in those days, Marshal Tianpeng And why did the Rolling Shutter General suffer this accident!
At the same time, he would never let go of such an excellent opportunity to pursue the secrets of time and space!
So Anyang flew all the way to Henan County!
As soon as he arrived in Luoyang, he heard a lot of rumors.
First of all, there was a big earthquake in the frontier, and the mountains and rivers were trampled and shattered! Later, he said that there were world-shattering monsters haunting and fighting in the Liangjie Mountains, destroying a hundred miles in one night!
Only finally did I learn the truth - the demon king Sun Wukong from five hundred years ago made a comeback and returned to the world in an invincible manner!
He roared furiously at the top of the Buddhist holy mountain Gadojuewo all night, intending to challenge the authority of the Buddha again!
Then he smashed a checkpoint in the frontier one step at a time, and slaughtered an important town in an instant, not only trampling on the lives of mortals, but also challenging the authority of heaven!
To him, mortals are like ants!
After that, someone saw him heading towards the West Sea of the Frontier.
In ancient times, the West Sea was also in the Qinghai boundary, which is now Qinghai Lake. It is also one of the strongholds of Heavenly Court in the human world. !
From this group of mortals, Anyang didn't know what happened in those days. All they knew was that the West Sea was surging, the flood flooded the village, the stench filled the entire West Sea, and then countless treasures of gold and silver washed ashore! But the strange thing is that as soon as people pick up these treasures and take them home, they will definitely die violently, and the frontier is screaming for a while!
Taking this opportunity, it is said that the Tartars have become a little restless outside the Liangjie Mountains. If the movement that night was too terrifying, they would probably have crossed the Liangjie Mountains and plundered the territory of the Tang Dynasty!
Three days later, a miracle came from heaven!
On that day, the clouds opened, and the heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals came across the border. In the distance, I saw a golden light. After a while, there were drums of war, thunder and roars. The two sides broke out in an earth-shattering battle. river!
The battle continued for three days and three nights. According to the information from the army, the movement of the local community did not stop until the day before yesterday, and I don't know what the result will be.
But the truth is that the frontier has regained its stability.
The celestial soldiers and generals did not stay in the mortal world, and left immediately after the battle, and the demon king Sun Wukong did not move.
It was rumored that he had been suppressed by the Heavenly Court army!
Anyang just smiled.
There are too many rumors, all of which are true and false!
It is probably true that Sun Wukong went to trouble the West Sea. According to his violent nature at the time, it was normal to do such a thing. The anger and hatred that had been sealed for five hundred years also needed to be vented.
It is estimated that Heavenly Court sent troops to be true.
After all, Heavenly Court really exists. Even if something happened in the past few hundred years, the connection with the mortal world has gradually diminished, but Sun Wukong so blatantly provoked Heavenly Court, and may even directly unplug the West Sea Dragon Palace, Heavenly Court will definitely not be able to bear it!
The issue of Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals is up for debate.
According to the communication level of the ancients, it is normal for the content to be slightly distorted when it is transmitted so far and passes through various communication nodes. Coupled with the urination of those who do good things, maybe only some gods sent by the heavenly court will be blown into a million army, or maybe they didn't see the situation in the sky at all, and all the drums and thunder were fake!
The specific situation is up to Anyang to decide.
But it must be true that Sun Wukong has not moved in the past two days, otherwise the world is definitely not so stable now, so Anyang is more inclined to send some warriors with explosive power or long-established supernatural powers from Heaven, and won the victory in one fell swoop. Sun Wukong.
At this moment, he heard another message——
Sun Wukong haunts the Northwest Demon Nest, and it is said that he has just returned from an exotic land outside the customs. He is calling on the world's demons, and he has launched the slogan "To oppose the heaven, to destroy the divine power, and to occupy the world together"!
Like all the practitioners, exorcists, and even other mortals who heard the news, Anyang was also shocked!
The result is obvious, Heavenly Court did not win that day!
"Recruiting troops to buy horses, this is to start another battle of gods and demons!" Anyang looked northwest from a distance and sighed again.
So far, Sun Wukong has been suppressed for five hundred years.
Five hundred years!
What is this concept?
The average life expectancy of later generations is about 70 years old, and it takes so long for a person to go through seven histories from birth to death; if you count a generation of people in 20 years, this time is enough for you to reproduce 25 generations of descendants; on average, a dynasty is two hundred years old. It will be replaced, so long is enough to change the dynasty twice!
In ancient times, due to lack of nutrition, healthy and adequate diet, people's life expectancy was generally not high. Coupled with various natural and man-made disasters, injustices, and the atrocities of massacres and genocide at every turn, many abnormal deaths occurred, and the backward medical technology Then a considerable number of people will not live to adulthood! Throughout history, the death of family members at an early age is basically the norm, so there is a very appalling fact-
The average life expectancy of people in this era is less than 30 years old!
It seems unbelievable, especially for those who are close to 30 and still young, it is hard to imagine that many people in ancient times have entered death at their age!
It seems very common, because even in the 21st century, the average life expectancy of people in many third world countries is only in the forties.
Five hundred years is enough for these people to live more than ten lifetimes!
And this is only the time when Sun Wukong was sealed. In the long years that are enough for ordinary people to spend more than a dozen lives, he is in a small cave, and the day-to-day torture can make him recognize the mistakes he has made. Make him crazy.
And there is only a fine line between good and evil.
Especially for a brutal demon king like him!
Perhaps the current Sun Wukong has lost even the command strategy he once had when he led the army of the demon clan to resist the heavenly court, leaving only the hatred and madness accumulated in five hundred years. In the original plot, Tang Seng's blood made him sober, but Anyang deprived him of all this. It can be said that the current Monkey King has lost his mind, otherwise he would not be so crazy to have a life and death battle with Heaven and Buddha.
Not to mention how his current strength compares with that of five hundred years ago, but his prestige among demons is definitely not as good as it used to be.
After all, as a victor, Heavenly Court will definitely use methods such as shielding facts and tampering with history to control public opinion. Now, no matter mortals or demons, they will only regard Sun Wukong as a loser, an ant who does not know the heights of the sky and challenges the Heavenly Court, and does not know what he once was. Brilliant, I don't know how strong he is.
Another point is that after Sun Wukong's defeat, he has experienced a series of turmoil in the demon clan and the suppression of the heavenly court. Now the number and strength of demons in the mortal world are far less than five hundred years ago.
What does Sun Wukong use to fight against Heaven?
What are you going to do with the Buddha?
Anyang sighed and continued to inquire about the Moonlight Treasure Box, but he couldn't find any news.
If it weren't for the fact that many practitioners here heard the news of the "Moonlight Treasure Box", and many exorcists rushed to Luoyang because of the rumors of the "Moonlight Treasure Box", he would have even thought that Liu Zhuangshi had lied to him.
And whenever he asked about others, the news he got made him speechless.
Because most of these practitioners who came for the Moonlight Treasure Box do not know what the Moonlight Treasure Box is. Only a few people patted their chests and said that the Moonlight Treasure Box contains magical powers and infinite power. Some people even say that the Moonlight There are treasures, elixir or a treasure map of such and such a great god hidden in the treasure box...
When Anyang was approaching despair, he finally heard a reliable answer - the moonlight treasure box hides the ultimate secret of the universe. Once you get it, you can travel through time and space freely!
The answer made him ecstatic!
Leaving aside the possibility of this man being nonsense, and the coincidence that he happened to say the characteristics of the Moonlight Treasure Box, he could almost confirm what he thought.
But when he asked about other details, these people all looked the same: one question and three ignorance!
If it weren't for the fact that there was no tourism economy in this era, he would even think that the "Moonlight Treasure Box" was just a gimmick created by the Henan County Tourism Bureau to attract tourists and develop local tourism!
So I stayed in Luoyang for another half a month...
In the past two weeks, he kept inquiring about news, and even broke into the government twice at night and attacked the headquarters of the exorcism organization in the Middle East three times, but he found nothing.
Instead, news about Sun Wukong kept coming.
The efficiency of demons is far higher than that of humans, and it is much higher than that of the human court. After the news of Sun Wukong's call for demons in the world to fight against the heavenly court spread, there were actually many demons responding, which greatly exceeded Anyang's expectations.
In his spare time, he speculates that there may be several reasons.
These demons may have come from five hundred years ago.
These demons may be relatively middle-level.
These demons may no longer be able to tolerate the oppression of the heavens and the continuous hunting and killing of mortal exorcists!
After five hundred years, the monsters in the mortal world have been replaced, and the scars may have been healed and forgotten about the pain!
But Sun Wukong is a soldier, this is a fact.
And the response speed of this bloated organization of Heavenly Court also exceeded Anyang's expectations. Almost after Sun Wukong gathered a group of demons, the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals came to knock on the door again!
This time, Anyang directly used the mirror magic to watch the battle situation on that side, and no longer believed in the intelligence network of these ancients.
Through the mirror image spell, he could see that the troops sent by Heavenly Court were not many, but they were very elite. All kinds of advanced equipment mixed with mana appeared in the sky, and an unknown powerful god would condescend and stare at the demons.
War is imminent!
The battle was extremely fierce, and it is no exaggeration to describe it as a landslide. The established Heavenly Soldiers showed a fighting power far exceeding that of the demons. Although the demons resisted desperately, they were easily strangled to death!
Under the grief and anger of Sun Wukong, he turned into his original form again, and his huge body was as terrifying as a nuclear bomb when he waved his hands and stomped his feet!
But the god generals actually resisted Sun Wukong in this form, and fought fiercely with him in the Northwest Demon Nest, and even gained the upper hand from time to time...
Until Anyang's mirroring spell was discovered by a superintendent of the God of War, he was directly isolated!
"Oh shit!"
Anyang gave a low voice.
He is seeing the most wonderful places!
"Heavenly Court is Heavenly Court. Both the enemy and us are exhausted from fighting. He still has the leisure to arrange a god general to supervise the battle!" Anyang sneered when he calmed down, such a bloated and pedantic institution, eat jujube pills!
The next day, there was still no news from the Moonlight Treasure Box, but I heard the news that the Demon Nest was completely wiped out by the Heavenly Soldiers!
Immediately, the hearts of the people were lifted!
In this era when demons are rampant in the world, the northwest demon nest has been in turmoil for a long time. The imperial court has sent troops, sent practitioners, and released bounty missions to attract exorcists. The largest cancer in the country. Now that there is the demon king Sun Wukong, it is even more incredible, and there are even rumors that the world will fall, but I didn't expect that Heavenly Court dispatched troops to easily destroy the demon nest joined by Sun Wukong!
As a result, Tianting, who has not shown up for a long time, has reached the peak of prestige just through this battle!
It is precisely because of this that, as a figure who dominates several imperial regimes, Anyang smells too strong a political taste. In other words, the purpose of this battle is too strong!
It may also be... Heavenly Court calculated it?
The dignified Monkey King just got rid of the fate of being used by Buddhism because of Anyang, and now... is being played as a monkey by Heaven again?
In the evening, another piece of news spread at a speed far exceeding the level of communication in this era!
Because it was unfavorable for the Buddha to suppress Sun Wukong, Lingshan was reprimanded by the Heavenly Court and ordered not to preach in some areas of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty today as a punishment!
Afterwards, Lingshan sent Arhats and Bodhisattvas to take away Sun Wukong, who was captured by the Heavenly Court, and suppressed them again!
The political purpose of this remark is also very strong, and it is biased towards heaven everywhere, especially now that Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty is also on the rise.
Anyang immediately judged that this rumor was not naturally generated, and there must be a behind-the-scenes driving force.
And it itself is like a slightly modified official document of the heavenly court, obviously boasting of its own power and belittling Buddhism, and at the same time absorbing higher prestige among the people.
After a little thought, I made up my mind.
This "official document" was automatically converted into his mind: Sun Wukong was captured by the heavenly generals, and Buddhism still wanted to hold Sun Wukong in the palm of his hand for some reason, so they asked the heavenly court for Sun Wukong. As a price, they had to give up the Western Regions.
This is an exchange of interests between the great powers!
At the same time, Heavenly Court has greatly promoted that it can not only show its strength in capturing the Demon King, but also compare it with Buddhism, showing that it has stronger muscles than Buddhism, as well as Heavenly Court's "monarch" attitude in front of Buddhism!
And the former Great Sage Monkey King has become a victim of the game between the two major forces, and has also become a doll of the two major forces!
What is the so-called Great Sage Monkey King?
