The main part of this large temple alone covers an area of one hundred acres, not counting the mountains and lakes enclosed behind it.
The strange insect flew to the door and did not dare to go in. It squatted on the big tree on the side and waited.
The incense in this large temple is extremely prosperous, and believers come in and out at all times. Some people even kneel three steps at a time to clarify their intentions.
The square that could accommodate seven or eight hundred people at the entrance was packed to the brim, and there were humming prayers everywhere. The strange insects turned a blind eye to them and waited patiently for a long time, until a man dressed as a handyman came out holding a broom.
It followed quietly.
There was a strong wind just now, and countless leaves fell. This handyman came out to sweep the courtyard.
When he swept to the corner, there was no one around him, but something hit him hard on the shoulder.
The handyman was startled and turned his head subconsciously, but his eyes were blurred when something suddenly slammed into his mouth!
Alive and moving!
Before he could scream, the thing blocked his throat.
He scratched his throat, rolled his eyes, and fell to the ground.
There were two pilgrims twenty steps away from him, but their view was blocked by the wall and the temple entrance was so noisy that they didn't hear any movement.
Just a few breaths later, the handyman grabbed the broom, walked out of the corner again, and went straight into the temple.
His face was expressionless and his eyes were a little dull, but the square and the temple were bustling with people, who would pay attention to such an inconspicuous handyman?
The buildings in the temple are stacked on top of each other, which is even more magnificent than what you see from the outside. Each of the several palaces is taller and more majestic.
He entered several palaces and saw that the people here were all famous immortals, such as Zhenren Yuyu, Immortal Master Baopu...
Although all of them are clay sculptures and wood carvings, their craftsmanship is exquisite and they are inlaid with beads and carved jade.
He walked further inside and entered the largest palace a quarter of an hour later.
There is an extremely gorgeous caisson inside the temple. Its complexity and beauty are difficult to describe in words. A craftsman may not be able to carve it even if he spends his whole life.
There is only one giant statue here, the height is an astonishing five feet!
The sculpture is still a seated figure with a jujube-colored face, three strands of beard under the chin, a rich hat on the head, and a red robe with five-color brocade with auspicious patterns such as peonies, cranes, birds, and peaches.
This is the god of wind worshiped by all, the master of Storm Island!
He is holding a long staff with two giant pythons wrapped around it, and lying on the sole of his feet is a monster with protruding eyes, fangs and a short tail. It has a body shape like a dog or a lion, and has two heads. Because of its lifelike sculpture,
, this monster makes people shudder at the first glance.
Its terror reflects the majesty of the wind god.
No matter which angle he looked at, no matter whether the servant walked to the far left or right of the hall, Fengshen's drooping eyes were staring at him.
Everyone who enters the temple feels this way.
In front of the statue are an offering table, a ceremony platform, and various complicated ceremonial utensils, especially the colorful figurines with different manners on both sides, which also fill the hall half full.
The two boat people just said that these human figurines were not made by craftsmen. They were originally living people. Because they committed crimes or offended the immortals, they were turned into human figurines and placed in the temple to warn others.
This time, as soon as the handyman entered the hall, someone stepped forward to intercept him: "Get out, this is not a place you can enter!"
The main immortal palace has its own dedicated servants, and the handymen who clean the courtyard are not allowed to compete for work.
The handyman didn't insist, turned around and walked out.
You can't cause trouble in the main immortal palace, otherwise you may be chopped into scum in minutes.
However, the road up to Shilong Peak seems to be behind the main hall. How is he going to get there? The monster can't use its original body to get there. It can feel the barrier in front of it. If he rushes in, he may end up in a disastrous situation.
wonderful.
At this time, a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old walked out from the back of the palace, wearing a soft satin robe and a white face with a high bun.
The servant who had previously driven away the handymen immediately nodded and bowed, grinning to the back of his ears: "Master Fang is going home to visit relatives?"
His coquettish look was completely different from before, but the young Master Fang turned a deaf ear to it and passed directly in front of him, as if he had not even seen this living person.
He didn't even bother to say a word to these servants.
Going home to visit relatives? Yes, some children of Yinzhu Island people will be selected to serve the God of Wind and teach them the art of immortality.
So this little guy of thirteen or fourteen is also a disciple of the Fantasy Sect?
The handyman thought for a moment and followed Master Fang out of the hall.
A quarter of an hour later, the servant who was cleaning the Lord's Immortal Palace saw Master Fang coming back again.
Strange thing, didn’t Master Fang just go out and return home?
But the servant had just hit a wall, and now he didn't dare to say hello anymore, so he could only watch him disappear in the back of the palace.
…
He Lingchuan and others followed the shopkeeper's instructions and walked back to the beach, heading east along the shore.
The two small towns we passed along the way were very lively. Some fishing boats had already returned. The boats were moored on the shore, and the fisherwomen were sitting in front of their houses, chatting while repairing fish nets, drying fish, and bursting into laughter from time to time.
Children, dogs, chickens and ducks ran wildly on the beach.
It’s a happy and busy farming scene.
On the islands at the center of the storm, there is actually a paradise-like life. Wan Qifeng sighed:
"Incredible. This is simply the place my uncle and I dreamed of a few years ago."
The Wanqi clan was expelled from the Ya Kingdom and became homeless. Wanqi Feng wanted to find a place for his people to settle down.
If they could have found this place at that time, they would have stayed there and never left.
However, there are no "ifs" in the world. Now that he is following his master to conquer the world and achieve extraordinary feats, it may not be God's will.
Everyone walked past a low hill and stood on the top of the hill looking back. They saw that behind the port was a large city with row upon row of houses, criss-crossed streets and archways, and a surging crowd of people coming and going.
"There are so many people living in the center of the storm." Everyone was amazed.
Yinzhu Island fell into the eye of the storm for at least two thousand years. Human beings are one of the most fertile creatures.
Aunt Zhu had another important point: "Hey, did you say Bai Ziqi went to the island?"
"Get there sooner or later, you won't miss it." He Lingchuan was very confident, "He is Bai Ziqi. The hint I left is not difficult, he will definitely be able to solve it."
"Is what you left behind a hint?" Aunt Zhu sighed, "It's obviously a mystery!"
"Have you figured out how to deal with him?"
"Let's wait and see what happens first." He Lingchuan said, "Bai Ziqi only came here for two goals, Master Qianhuan and me. He may not be able to find me right away, and the opening hours of the storm circle are limited, so he will find me first.
Master Qianhuan, try to 'encounter' me again on the way."
Bai Ziqi didn't quite understand He Lingchuan's true purpose of coming to Duanhaihai, just like He Lingchuan didn't understand why Master Qianhuan never came out of seclusion.
They all have their own mysteries to solve.
Going further, the scenery on the seaside is still beautiful, but the mountains and forests are getting denser and the people are getting thinner.
Soon, everyone arrived at the destination of their trip——
