Chapter 1873: Meeting an Old Friend (1/92)
The words of the Great Emperor Dong were too real, and people were speechless for a moment, unable to say a word.
Not to mention the Eternal World, even in the modern world of cultivation, the money in the merit box of the Buddhist disciples never belonged to the Buddha.
As the most holy monk in Buddhism, the Golden Lamp Monk should know this very well.
But why did the head of the Xianshan Sect, Mrs. Shan Xiu, invite them to the temple?
Was it because she herself was a believer of one of the four emperors, or was there another meaning behind this move?
Wang Ling frowned, thinking in his heart.
He had a vague intuition that this Shan Xiufu was not simple, and might even be a fellow traveler with them.
Of course, these were just Wang Ling's own guesses.
He had a hunch that the next trip to the temple would be unusually lively.
When the speeding carriage landed, what came into Wang Ling's eyes was a building that looked extremely mysterious and magnificent. The ivory-white temple's long walls were carved with various runes from ancient times. The environment inside was very good, with small bridges, flowing water, rockery and fountains.
According to Zhang Ziqian, the temple architecture in the Central Region combines the styles of the four regions, which is a relatively special existence, and is designed to allow believers to worship the emperor they believe in devoutly.
Compared with ordinary temples, the Central Region Temple has three more halls, which are located in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and northeast. The specifications and styles of all the halls are the same, and even the building area has strict requirements, which are exactly the same.
This is also considered from the perspective of appeasing believers.
After arriving here, the Eastern Emperor silently observed the reaction near the temple. There are many believers here, incense is lingering, and there is an endless stream of cultivators making wishes.
The Eastern Emperor knew that in addition to the Shanxiu lady, there would be other people coming to see him.
The Tiankun King would definitely not miss such an opportunity. Although the ancient city guards are terrible, they cannot deter the prince of the Western Region.
If the other party really dares to attack directly in the Central Region, and the most important thing is that this is a temple with a statue of the Western Emperor. If he chooses to attack here, he may be able to get the remote blessing of the Western Emperor.
However, the Eastern Emperor is not very worried, because he still has the senior surnamed Wang hidden in his body!
This is the biggest killing weapon he can offer now, and it is enough to crush everything once it is offered.
But after all, the gathering of the four emperors has not officially started, and the Eastern Emperor does not want to reveal his identity so early.
After all, no one has seen the true appearance of the emperor, and all rely on the Dharma image to identify the identity.
So if he really confronts the Tiankun King later, the Eastern Emperor does not plan to use the Dharma image to fight.
To deal with a small prince, he, a great emperor, directly offers the Dharma image to crush him, which will make him feel very embarrassed.
As an emperor, Dong Dadi rarely comes to a place like the temple. After all, it would be strange to worship himself. However, today he has to come here to visit because of the need of the historical process.
In the huge temple, there are four orderly long queues in the courtyard. The ancient city guards maintain the continuity. Everyone stands in front of the temple of the emperor they believe in and waits for worship devoutly. There is no chaos or noise.
"They are harmonious. I thought they would fight." Wang Ying teased.
Zhang Zi sighed and said, "After all, there are ancient city guards here, and most people dare not do anything wrong. In addition, many people think that if they do anything wrong here, they will be punished by the four emperors, causing their realm to stagnate."
"Is there such a saying?" Wang Ying was curious.
"Actually, no, it's all psychological." Dong Dadi personally clarified.
The believers of the four emperors seem to be numerous, but basically only a small number of these believers are die-hard fans. Most people actually act according to their hearts.
If the wish made is effective, they will only worship a certain emperor for a period of time.
If the wish they made was not fulfilled, they would immediately turn to other emperors and become fans of other emperors.
Even in the ancient times, these were very realistic things.
Although it seemed that there was a suspicion of disrespect to the emperor, there were many believers, and as emperors, they were not narrow-minded enough to specifically target a believer.
"Pray to the East Emperor! Protect the descendants of my Chen family, and make their wishes come true! Say what you want!" As soon as they stepped into the threshold of the temple gate, they immediately heard the voice from the East Emperor's temple.
A middle-aged man with a large rosary hanging around his neck and a bare head prostrated himself on the ground in an exaggerated posture, worshiping devoutly.
Even though everyone's worship posture was different and there was no special fixed consideration, this man still attracted the attention of many people because of his exaggeratedness.
"Look, it's another weird wish. This emperor didn't even say what he wanted, how can I guarantee that the descendants of their Chen family will delay the law..." Dong Emperor complained in the team voice spell.
"..."
For a long time, Wang Ling remained silent.
Because when it comes to the Chen family who "say what they say and what they do", the first thing that comes to Wang Ling's mind is Chen Chao.
He is not sure whether there is any connection between the middle-aged man in front of him and Chen Chao...
After all, this has already spanned eternity. If Chen Chao is really the descendant of this Chen family, it is too coincidental.
Wang Ling was secretly complaining in his heart. Immediately after the middle-aged man surnamed Chen, another wealthy woman began to worship the statue of the Great Emperor of the East: "Pray to the Great Emperor of the East! Bless the descendants of the Guo family, so that they can have a wide network of contacts, have no worries about food and clothing, and be able to carry forward the spiritual beast breeding business!"
This time, not only Wang Ling, but even Sun Rong was shocked: "Wang Ling, why do I always feel that what this senior said is so much like Guo Hao..."
"It can't be such a coincidence?" Wang Zhen also found it incredible.
This is the Eternal Age, the time span is too long, to be able to pass from that period to the present... what a powerful bloodline power it must have.
Moreover, most of the Eternal Age were later imprisoned in the Supreme Corpse Shroud by Wang Daozu.
Although it has been found out that not all Eternal Age were imprisoned in it, there are still a small number of Eternal Age, even those with royal blood among the Eternal Age who are wandering outside, but the probability of surviving and leaving behind a fire is so low that it can be said to be in the dust...
Wang Ling has always believed that there can be any coincidences under such a long time span, but the current situation has forced him to have some doubts and suspicions about such a coincidence.
"Dad, let's go. It's useless to do this." At this time, a young man with a crew cut ran over and helped the middle-aged man with a big rosary hanging around his neck.
"Ren'er, don't be rude. This is the emperor! He will hear our voices!" The middle-aged man surnamed Chen looked pious.
"But you made a wish and it came true. This is too unrealistic. Isn't this the same as wishing for something to come true? Unless the Emperor of the East himself appears in this temple, I definitely don't believe he will fulfill my wish." Chen Ren sighed.
The Emperor of the East: "..."
Wang Ling: "..."
The rest of the people: "..."
