Chapter 124: West Lake Conquering the Demon
Quiet, peaceful, secluded.
This side of the second space crack is also underwater.
Chen Gou cautiously stuck his head out from the lake, looked around, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
I saw that he was in a small lake with a diameter of more than 300 meters. The lakeside was surrounded by vines, fragrant flowers and plants, and there were groups of butterflies dancing. There were no humans, monsters or ghosts.
For Chen Gou, this is almost the best way to open up the abyss world.
There is no need to worry about the secrets at the bottom of the lake being discovered, nor the need to explain to witnesses why they emerged from the bottom of the lake.
"It's just that we have to figure out which world it is as soon as possible."
After Chen Gou landed on the shore, he used magic to steam the moisture on his clothes and pondered at the same time.
After the awakened person enters the abyss world, he will indeed automatically know the name of the world from the law and order, but this will take time.
And the time varies. Some may know it soon, while others may know it in ten days and a half month, or even half a year.
Therefore, instead of waiting passively, it is better to take the initiative to find a populated place outside to explore.
Only by knowing the name of the world can he determine what to do next.
This lake is not a backwater, but is connected to a small stream flowing to other places.
Chen Gou walked along the creek and came out of the woods in just over half an hour. Suddenly, his eyes suddenly opened up, and a beautiful and dreamlike scenery appeared in front of him.
All I could see was the lake in front of me, reflecting the colorful clouds in the sky. The calm lake water was as clear as a mirror, vast and ethereal.
The winding city wall on the opposite side of the lake reflects its dark shadow in the water. Gorgeous flower boats push past leisurely. The music of silk and bamboo orchestras fills the ears, as well as the beautiful singing voice of women.
There were tourists walking not far away. They all looked surprised when they saw Chen Gou dressed in armor.
"The ancient world...and it must be after the Tang Dynasty."
Chen Gou made his first judgment after looking at the passers-by wearing long shirts and skirts with fluttering sleeves.
Then with a thought in his heart, he grabbed an old man who was passing by with a fish basket and said with a smile: "Old man, which is the best temple nearby? I came back from the border and wanted to kneel before the Buddha to eliminate the murderous aura and karma.
Praying for the family.”
Ancient people were superstitious about gods and Buddhas, so as long as there were temples and Taoist temples with some real skills, they would be popular.
Chen Gou asked this, and he could guess which world it was from the name of the temple.
In addition, finding Buddhist forces was one of his purposes in entering the abyss world.
“The best temple…”
The father-in-law blurted out without any hesitation: "If we talk about the best temple near Lin'an, it is naturally Jinshan Temple."
“Jinshan Temple!”
When Chen Gou heard the name, he was immediately heartbroken. Looking at the beautiful lake in front of him, the answer to the name of this world already appeared in his mind.
Lin'an, Dahu, Jinshan Temple!
"Could it be the Jinshan Temple hosted by Master Fahai?"
"Young gentleman, you just came back from the border, and you have heard of the name of Master Fa Hai?"
The old man looked proud, nodded and said with a smile: "It is the Jinshan Temple presided over by Master Fahai. The master has profound Buddhist teachings, is compassionate and hates evil. Thanks to him, we can live a peaceful life by subduing demons."
.”
Upon hearing the affirmative answer, Chen Gou's eyes flashed with joy, and he bowed to the old man and saluted: "Thank you, father-in-law, for letting me know. I'm very grateful."
"Just say it casually, there's no point in saying thank you."
The old man said this, but with a smile on his face, he kindly reminded him: "It's getting dark soon. You will definitely not be able to reach Jinshan Temple before dark, so why not stay in the city for the night?"
We'll go there early tomorrow morning. There will be a lantern festival in the Lantern Festival tonight, and maybe I can meet the one I love."
"Okay, okay..."
Chen Gou thanked the old man again, then turned and walked towards Lin'an City on the other side.
However, he did not go directly to the city, but pondered as he walked.
Then he found a deserted corner, changed his clothes into a monk's robe and cloth shoes, and put on a bamboo hat. He didn't look as eye-catching as before, and then he continued to walk towards the city gate.
The monk's robes and cloth shoes were naturally prepared before coming in. Not only this one, but also monk's robes and other clothes for various statuses were all in the storage space.
Lin'an Prefecture, as the capital city, is naturally very lively.
Coupled with the influence of the Lantern Festival, even though it is not yet time, the streets are already crowded with people.
Chen Gou's eyes wandered on both sides of the street. When he saw an inn facing the street and river, he turned around and walked in. He asked for a guest room on the second floor, where he could overlook the surrounding streets more than 100 meters away.
"Fahai... I just don't know which Fahai it is." Chen Gou stood in front of the window sill and fell into deep thought.
Like Journey to the West, there are several movies and TV series related to White Snake, and Fa Hai is different in each one.
There are differences in personality, strength, and even background.
Different Fahai naturally require different ways of contacting it.
But Chen Gou had a strong hunch - this White Snake World, like Journey to the West, is also integrated!
"In addition, we have to find a way to camouflage the lake where the space crack is located to prevent anyone from accidentally breaking in."
Unlike the water pools in the Daughter Kingdom, the entire Daughter Kingdom is surrounded by the Wangchuan River, so the probability of discovering the secrets at the bottom of the pool is much lower.
So the small lake not far from the West Lake had to be prepared for a rainy day.
Although the passage is unstable and powerful monsters or monks cannot pass through, we are afraid that they will force their way in and directly destroy the passage!
Of course, the disguise must be natural and harmonious, otherwise the lake will be enclosed in the mountains for no reason, and there will be no three hundred taels of silver here.
"The place is peaceful and peaceful with the singing of birds and fragrant flowers. It is suitable to build a manor to surround the lake so that outsiders will not be suspicious. However, there is a lack of a trustworthy person to guard the manor..."
Chen Gou's thoughts were complicated, and it was getting dark before he knew it.
The flow of people on the streets became even more crowded, and even the rivers that passed through the city were full of boats.
"This scene... looks a bit familiar. It seems to be the opening scene in The Legend of White Snake!"
The Legend of White Snake is a relatively recent movie based on the story of White Snake.
The biggest difference from other movies and TV series is that Fa Hai has a disciple named Neng Ren...
"What happened on Lantern Night in the movie?"
"It seems that Fa Hai brought Nen Nin to the city to slay the demon. The two of them split up and acted separately. As a result, Nen Nin was not strong enough and was bitten by the bat demon on the neck, causing him to undergo a demon transformation..."
Chen Gou was searching for relevant memories in his mind, when suddenly a young and upright voice woke him up.
"If Jinshan Temple can endure it, the Buddha's light will shine everywhere, and there will be Dharma in the world!"
Then there was a "dang" sound, and a soul-shaking metal collision sounded suddenly.
Chen Gou looked down following the voice and saw in the river downstairs a young monk who looked to be less than twenty years old standing on the top of a awning boat, holding a pair of magical instruments enshrined in the temple.
Cymbals.
The soul-shaking sound just now was obviously coming from these cymbals.
On the bow and stern of the awning boat were several young women dressed in enchanting and colorful clothes, holding different musical instruments in their hands, just like a trick boat.
But when they looked up at Monk Neng Ren, their eyes immediately turned white, fangs sprouted from the corners of their mouths, their hands turned into sharp claws, and they pounced on him with a roar.
As soon as he jumped, bat wings covered with fleshy membrane sprouted from his back.
They are all bat demons!
"bluff!"
Neng Ran shouted loudly, and the cymbals in his hands hit each other continuously, and immediately transparent sound waves visible to the naked eye burst out, distorting the air, sweeping across the sky and the earth in all directions.
The six or seven bat monsters floating in the air were swept by the sound wave, and they all immediately covered their ears and showed signs of pain.
Obviously, this kind of sound-based Buddhist weapon attack is very restrained against the monster whose body is a bat!
Unable to endure the force, he turned his hands, and the cymbals spun in his hands, getting faster and faster. Finally, the golden flames were rubbed together and turned into two Buddhist golden wheels, which suddenly shot out.
The speed was so fast, like lightning, that two horses flew across the sky.
"Bang!"
Countless bats scattered and fled madly into the night. In the blink of an eye, all the women transformed by the bat demons were cut in half, and then they turned into bats and disappeared.
"The demon clown is vulnerable!"
The young demon-conquering monk caught the flying magic weapon with both hands and stood on the top of the awning boat with a smile on his face.
"If you get carried away, there will be disaster!"
When Chen Gou saw this scene, a picture appeared in his mind, and he immediately screamed secretly.
Sure enough, the roof of the awning boat suddenly broke open, and a muscular black claw stretched out from below, grabbed Neng Ren's feet and pulled him down!
"ah……"
"Master, save me!"
Along with the screams, the rapid ringing of bells came from the cabin, which was obviously a signal for help.
"Fahai's disciple... it's a favor to save him!"
When he thought of this, Chen Gou no longer hesitated. He put his foot down and his figure stretched out like a wild goose and soared into the sky.
Jumping more than ten feet, plus his original height when he jumped up, he instantly appeared at an altitude of more than forty meters.
Leap in the Moon Forest!
At this time, Chen Gou still had his original appearance and had not turned into a ghost monk.
Because the lv3 platinum level skill transformation has an important additional attribute - after casting the transformation, you can choose to change into the target's appearance, or you can choose to keep your appearance unchanged and only change skills.
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the night when the moon is at its fullest.
Chen Gou was in mid-air, with the bright moon over the night sea above his head. He was wearing a bamboo hat, his monk's robes were floating, and his whole body was filled with a heavy and majestic feeling like a mountain and a river, suppressing it from the sky.
A confused blow!
"Woo!"
A sharp sound broke through the air, and the astonishing wind pressure and momentum blew the water in the river to all directions from a distance of more than ten meters, forming a collapse and sinking the awning boat.
boom!
The moment Chen Gou's feet landed on the roof of the awning, the awning made of bamboo strips and thatch exploded instantly.
The whole boat sank suddenly, falling more than three meters, and fell directly to the bottom of the river before stopping. Then the poor wooden boat couldn't bear the pressure, and finally burst apart and fell apart.
Chapter completed!
