Chapter 456 Where is the Earth Store! Where are the monsters?
Underworld.
The leader of the Styx Church, who now holds the position of King of Yama, was sitting on the throne boredly when his expression suddenly changed and he left the Yama Hall without anyone noticing.
He looked like he was inspecting the work and came to the entrance of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
It is very busy here. The ghost agents are sending souls one by one into reincarnation, the human realm, the animal realm, etc., each with its own division of labor.
When the ghost missionaries saw the arrival of the Styx Cult Leader, they were so frightened that they all bowed to him and did not dare to express their anger.
"Cheer up, everyone. What you are responsible for is the most important thing. Whichever reincarnation it is, it is the one. You must not engage in malpractice for personal gain."
Styx scolded with a straight face, his eyes searching among the souls.
Suddenly, his cloudy pupils lit up and he saw the target.
It was a soul that looked a little confused, as if it had lost its mind. It was covered with a faint Buddha light, and it was very holy.
This soul is Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
He is in line with humanity, waiting to be reincarnated.
The target has appeared!
With a thought in his mind, Ming He put his hands on his back and started walking as if there was no one around.
Soon, it was Ksitigarbha's turn to be reincarnated. The ghost pushed him and was about to enter reincarnation, but at this moment, Styx, who was walking around, suddenly staggered and bumped into him.
What a coincidence, Ksitigarbha's soul was knocked into the animal path next to it.
This sudden change frightened the ghost servant. Looking at Ksitigarbha's soul that had fallen into the animal realm, he didn't know what to do for a moment.
"You...why are you so careless?"
The leader of Styx looked sulky, pointed at the ghost and cursed.
At this moment, he was so light and strong that he didn't look as staggering as before.
"Yes... I'm sorry, sir, you just hit..." Guizha came to his senses, fell to his knees and explained hurriedly.
Halfway through his words, he was interrupted by Styx.
"Huh? What am I? Are you blaming me for bumping into you?"
Even if I have 99% of the responsibility, don’t you have 1%?
"Please forgive me, sir. I was negligent in my duty."
Gui Cha reacted very quickly, knowing that speaking harshly would lead to disastrous consequences, so he simply took all the responsibility.
"Forget it, it's your first time offending, so I won't hold you accountable for dereliction of duty this time. Be careful in the future."
The Lord of Styx waved his hands, looking magnanimous.
Gui Cha was overjoyed and felt grateful again.
A small episode passed and both parties were happy.
The only one injured was Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
…
Xiniu Hezhou.
In a farm pigsty, a tender pink pig lay weakly on the ground.
"Who am I? Why am I here?"
The little pig groaned and looked at the surrounding environment, feeling that he shouldn't be here, but he couldn't explain why.
Dirty environment, bad smell.
He also has his own brothers and sisters, and an old sow.
"Hey..." The hostess came over with a large bucket of chaff to feed, "Why is this little pig so weak? Is he suffering from heatstroke?"
"It's quite round and long. It will look very beautiful when you make a roasted suckling pig, right?" the male host followed.
The little pig in the pigsty jumped up and rushed over to grab the food.
The host and hostess walked away satisfied.
"Asshole! You actually want to eat me? I won't let you succeed even if I die."
The little pig thought with a groan, raised his trotter and gave the brother next to him a mouthful.
"Eat, eat, eat, just know how to eat, be careful of being made into a roasted suckling pig!"
This little pig was Jizo who was pushed down the animal path by Styx. Now he has lost his memory, but his common sense is still there, and he instinctively feels that he should not be a pig.
After eating, Jizo calmed down and began to use his limited wisdom to think about how to escape from this pigsty.
He is too weak now. He can't even fight an old sow, let alone a human.
Ever since, Ksitigarbha began to try to practice cultivation and exercise.
Every day when no one is around, I run around the pig pen, jump up and down, sit cross-legged when tired, pretend to practice, or lie on the ground and do push-ups to exercise.
At this time, the old sow and several piglets huddled together, looking at the little piglet that was moaning and exercising in horror.
Are these their kind?
This made the pig very suspicious.
…
Time passed day by day. Ksitigarbha did not only eat but also exercise every day. The old sow and several piglets were used to it.
Ksitigarbha has become the boss here. Every time he feeds, he doesn't move his mouth. No pig dares to move first, otherwise they will be served by his iron hooves.
A few months passed in the blink of an eye, and Ksitigarbha transformed from a piglet into a muscular pig, with bulging muscles all over his body, full of wildness, and even wilder than a wild boar.
This day is the day when pigs are slaughtered. The host and hostess are going to choose a pig and sell it for household use.
But I never thought that as soon as I arrived in front of the pig pen door, I saw an old pig god sitting cross-legged, spitting white mist from his mouth, as if he was performing some ancient and mysterious ritual.
The host and hostess looked at each other and screamed in unison: "Monster!!!"
"monster?"
"Where is it? Where is it?" Ksitigarbha Guru jumped up and looked around nervously.
This was even more remarkable because he said these two sentences directly.
When the host and hostess heard that their pigs could talk, their vision suddenly went dark and they fainted from fright.
"It's strange, how can there be monsters?" Ksitigarbha was puzzled, thinking as he opened the door and walked out on his hind legs.
At this moment, the village became noisy. The villagers were alerted by the sound of a monster and rushed out to support them.
At a glance, they saw a sturdy domestic pig, standing upright and giving them a scary smile.
Jizo smiled kindly, because he felt that he was the same as these people.
But the simple villagers have never seen such a formation, an upright pig, and still smiles at them. Isn't this a monster?
"Let's all come together, don't be afraid, except for this pig demon, otherwise we will never have a peaceful life in the future."
The village chief raised his shovel and shouted boldly.
"Come on!"
Suddenly, a group of villagers armed with shovels, kitchen knives, and rakes rushed towards the pig demon.
"I'm not a monster!" Ksitigarbha was so frightened that he ran away.
"You are not a monster, are we monsters?"
The villagers roared and swarmed in to chase him.
It can run around on two legs and can talk. What is this if not a pig demon?
While this pig demon's magic power is still small, it is natural to get rid of it as soon as possible to prevent it from coming back to do evil in the future.
Ksitigarbha could not argue, so he could only try his best to escape. Fortunately, he exercised regularly, otherwise he would not be able to outrun these people.
Fortunately, there were mountains and forests outside the village. The villagers chased him for a while and did not dare to go deep, so they retreated.
Ksitigarbha was panting and lying on the ground in shock.
…
In the depths of the endless void, Guanshiyin took in all this and smiled with satisfaction.
Ksitigarbha has made arrangements, and the man holding the tower will be next.
