Chapter 1864: Dragon Ascends to Heaven
Maiqiu, the main temple of Miaozhan God.
Tonight, there were several times more people standing outside the temple than usual, because the temple was suddenly closed in the evening. The temple keeper drove out all the pilgrims and believers, and then closed the door to visitors.
Everyone was confused and didn't know what had happened.
Several pilgrims who were driven out of the temple said that when the chief attendant led them in chanting and worshipping, they suddenly heard a loud bang, like a firecracker during the New Year. Everyone looked up and saw that the main statue of the goddess in the center was actually cracked!
Just as everyone was feeling bewildered, the head of the statue fell off with a loud bang, smashing the altar in front.
As it fell, the statue of the goddess Fenghe, which had been blocked behind, was revealed, and tears of blood were flowing from its eyes!
And the tears had dried up, obviously they had been flowing for a long time.
The chief servant and the temple master looked at each other in a daze for a few moments, and then drove all the believers out without any explanation.
After hearing this, the believers outside were skeptical.
The goddess statue is turning her head and crying. This, this, is a very ominous sign!
Everyone comes here to worship gods because they are troubled. After seeing such an ominous omen today, will they suffer even more misfortune when they go back?
Everyone was filled with fear and confusion, and didn't want to leave anymore.
After more than an hour of waiting, the temple gate still did not open. Someone leaned over the wall to look and found that the hall was brightly lit and the temple officials seemed to be discussing something.
At night, another group of people arrived outside the temple. They were Xun Tongwei, the cousin of the allied leader Situ He.
His son Xun Yu grew up playing with Situ He. After the Situ family rebelled against Bisha and successfully formed an alliance, Xun Yu was also relied upon by Situ He. The status of the Xun family rose rapidly and they became popular and prominent.
Other believers entered and exited the temple through the small door, but when Xun Tongwei came to pay homage to Miao Zhantian, the temple would usually open half the door to welcome him as a sign of courtesy.
This is called specification.
However, Xun Tongwei was unexpectedly turned away tonight.
The attendant went up and shouted for a long time, but the temple priest inside insisted that something happened in the temple and refused to open the door.
Xun Tongwei was also at a loss, because he had come here tonight with advance notice, mainly to discuss the ownership of incense in the Allied region on behalf of Situ He. In addition, the situation in the central and southern parts of Shanjin was chaotic, and Situ He saw an opportunity and wanted to get closer to the goddess - if he wanted to compete in Shanjin, he had to come and pay homage to the mountain first, right?
But Miao Zhantian's attention was on the fight for Yao land, and he kept Situ He in suspense, not making any comment.
He had not intended to introduce this variable so soon.
The Xun family's servants learned about the unusual situation in the temple from the pilgrims.
Seeing that the temple gate was closed, Xun Tongwei did not dare to say anything and wanted to go back home and send someone over tomorrow morning. But at this moment, an earthquake suddenly occurred!
The ground first shook up and down, then left and right. Xun Tongwei felt as if he was standing on the bow of a ship in a stormy sea, unable to stand steadily. The other pilgrims were also staggering from side to side.
The goddess temple could not withstand the shaking on the spot, and with a loud bang, several sections of the outer wall collapsed. The believers who had not been dispersed by the bombardment were now frightened and retreated three or four feet away.
If the earthquake shook a dozen more times, the magnificent seven-story tower in the temple would not be able to withstand it. It fell to the ground and broke into eight pieces.
That dull bang seemed to hit everyone's heart at the same time.
I don't know who shouted tremblingly:
"The earth dragon turns over!"
The people here also call earthquakes "earth dragons turning over".
Just as he finished speaking, a long and loud dragon roar suddenly sounded in the temple!
Of course, no one in Shanjin had ever heard of a dragon's roar before, but when all the pilgrims heard this sound, it seemed as if their ancient memories were awakened.
So desolate and grand, with a majesty that looks down on all living things!
It could only be a dragon's roar.
Because they were too close to the sound source, more than a dozen people were shocked and fainted on the spot.
The others were losing their minds and were at a loss as to what to do, but they saw two huge figures appear in the temple!
A black dragon emerged from the ground, with antlers, bulging eyes, a python body, eagle claws, mane and whiskers fluttering in the evening breeze, looking elegant and ferocious, and its scales flashing sharp light in the night.
It’s not a Jiao, it’s not a Qiu, it’s a dragon!
It had something tightly clenched in its mouth. When everyone saw it clearly, they all screamed.
That is the goddess Miaozhantian!
The image, the appearance, and the countenance were exactly the same as those in the temple of the goddess.
But it was held in the dragon's mouth, and it became limp like a puppet. Where was the majestic and mysterious demeanor it once had?
The dragon swung its wings vigorously a few times, and golden blood splattered everywhere.
Miaozhan God had no power to resist and seemed to be dead.
The dragon slowly turned its head, and only when everyone outside the temple had seen the scene clearly did it stand up and leap into the air with all its might!
The pilgrims exclaimed again, and many of them subconsciously covered their mouths.
The night sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds. The dragon was circling in the sky with Miao Zhantian in its mouth. Occasionally, lightning flashed across the sky, as if to imprint this hideous and incredible scene on the clouds.
In the surrounding area, countless people looked up and saw this scene, and for some reason, they burst into tears.
After showing enough of the deception, the dragon slowly ascended to the sky and disappeared into the clouds, dragging the corpse of the god.
Even after the clouds dispersed, the moon rose, and the sky and earth became clear, the spectators on the ground had not yet recovered from their shock.
What on earth did they see!
Was Miaozhan God killed by Dragon God?
When the dragon took off into the sky, Xun Tongwei, like everyone else, sat on the ground, unable to calm down for a long time.
The attendants helped him up and the temple gate opened. The temple keepers ignored everyone and just ran away with fear on their faces.
They had gathered here before, perhaps to discuss countermeasures or perhaps to pray to the goddess.
However, Shenlong slapped all of them in the face with the most horrific truth.
Even God's servants were in such a miserable state. These scenes that I witnessed with my own eyes couldn't possibly be fake, right?
Xun Tongwei calmed down and said to his attendant, "Go into the temple, quickly!"
Then, he knew that the pilgrims who had been driven out earlier were not lying. The head of the statue of Miaozhan God was placed in front of the altar, and the blood and tears of the Goddess Fenghe had been wiped off.
Xun Tongwei also saw the temple's chief servant slumped on the side, his forehead covered in blood, with only two trusted aides left beside him.
His face was ashen, and he kept mumbling a few words. Xun Tongwei leaned over to listen carefully, and only then could he tell that he was saying "It's over, it's over".
After asking his confidant beside him, he learned that the master and servant had just communicated with the gods, but received no response. Just as he stepped out of the threshold, he encountered a dragon that grabbed their goddess and took her to the sky. As a result, he fell heavily and was now a little dazed.
Xun Tongwei was a man of some experience. After getting over the initial shock, he began to wonder if this was an illusion.
It can be seen that the temple chief looks like he has lost his parents, so it seems, it seems that the goddess’s defeat and death are real?
