Chapter 24: The Watchful Eyes from Taiyi Divine Lord
The ceremony finally came to an end.
All the candidates knelt down around the bonfire.
Bowed three times, stood up, played the qin, bowed three more times, and stood up again.
After repeating this several times, they bowed down one after another and never looked up again.
In the sky, on the imperial carriage.
“I’ve chosen it! This is it.” Huang Rong’s face flushed with excitement, pointing to a candidate spirit girl she had marked on the tablet.
These candidate spirit girls looked no different in terms of clothing, and they all wore Nuo masks on their faces, so their facial features could not be seen.
Huang Rong originally planned to pick one carefully. In her opinion, her brother Xing would naturally choose the best one if he wanted to choose a spirit girl.
But everyone looked the same, so the girl was at a loss, and finally she could only pick one at random.
Nu Wa nodded and got excited too. I really don’t know where she, an artificial intelligence, got so much excitement: “Let’s watch my performance next!”
The drone slowly flew hundreds of meters above the crowd.
Then——
Buzz! ! ! ! !
Huang Rong didn’t understand what the 200,000 lumens discussed by Shen Xingke and Nu Wa meant before, but now she understood.
That was the light that could really illuminate the entire mountaintop in the dark night when you couldn’t see your hand in front of you.
The sudden strong light instantly illuminated the large area around the Taiyi Temple, and everyone looked up in horror.
Those who looked up couldn’t even hold on for a moment, and they all felt pain in their eyes, tears flowed uncontrollably, and they lowered their heads in fear and screamed.
It was as if the divine light from the nine heavens reversed the day and night, and it was like a heavy hammer hitting everyone’s heart.
“Grandpa Taiyi… Grandpa Taiyi showed up!”
“The gods really came down!”
“Gods bless you, gods bless you…”
The onlookers knelt down one after another and kowtowed repeatedly. Some people who looked up at the bright light were even more terrified. They only felt that their eyes were swollen and sore, they couldn’t see clearly, they were dizzy, and they couldn’t control their tears because they looked directly at the divine light and were disrespectful to the gods, which was a punishment.
In the crowd, Wu Xian knelt down with a plop, trembling all over.
He had presided over more than one grand sacrifice, and he grew up serving Donghuang Taiyi since he was a child.
But for decades, Taiyi never responded.
He didn’t dare to do what he wanted, but he never had any doubts.
When the divine light descended from the sky, turning day and night upside down, Wu Xian no longer had a trace of doubt in his heart, and was only as terrified as everyone else.
Kneeling on the ground, he kowtowed deeply, his forehead touching the ground, his body enveloped by the divine light, and he felt the burning sensation all over his body, as if being roasted by a raging fire.
Divine light!
This must be the divine light!
It is the divine light of Taiyi God!
Many people do not know what kind of god Taiyi is, but he knows that he is the supreme god passed down from ancient times, the god of creation..
Also the god of the sun.
Suddenly, all the people kneeling on the ground felt that their bodies were getting darker.
Some people couldn’t control their curiosity and raised their heads cautiously.
“Oh my God!”
“Grandpa Taiyi… has chosen a spiritual girl!”
“Grandpa Taiyi has chosen a spiritual girl!”
Exclamations rang out one after another, and Wu Xian looked up, stunned.
The divine light that had just turned day and night upside down seemed to be gathered and gathered by an invisible big hand, turning into a vertical ray of light, directly covering a candidate spiritual girl.
Light should be scattered, it will illuminate all directions.
No one has ever seen the light that was gathered like this before their eyes. Except for the spiritual girl who was bathed in the divine light, no one else could tell that she was favored by the gods.
In the crowd, the spirit girl who was lying on the ground and bathing in the divine light also heard the calls from the surroundings.
She looked up in confusion, but saw that all the divine lights were gathered on her body.
In just a moment, the heat wave brought by the divine light made her sweat all over her body. She carefully raised her hand to wipe her sleeves…
“It’s so hot!”
“Is this… Is this the gaze of the God…”
“It’s so… so scorching…”
The candidate spirit girl… No, from this moment on, she is no longer a candidate, but a real spirit girl.
In a trance, the spirit girl felt that there seemed to be a gaze from the sky falling on her, seeing through her from head to toe, and also——
——seeing clearly the doubt in her heart about the existence of the God in the bamboo house on stilts.
A huge panic rose in her heart, and the spirit girl’s face turned pale. She felt that her whole body was getting hotter and hotter, as if she was about to be burned to ashes.
“That’s enough. If you continue like this, her hair and clothes will be set on fire by your strong light.”
The Taiyi Emperor on the imperial carriage glanced at the chosen spirit girl below, and signaled the great goddess Nuwa to withdraw her magic.
“This is necessary.” Nuwa always has her reasons. “She is your spirit girl. From now on, she will become your agent in the mortal world, so she must maintain absolute respect for the master.”
“The Taiyi Emperor can not only bring down boundless blessings, but also bring monstrous disasters to the world.”
“Let this spirit girl feel it first, and then we have to pick an opportunity to let the world see the power of the sun’s true fire.”
“Speak human language.” Shen Xingke sighed.
Nu Wa raised her eyebrows: “I’m going to pick a suitable time to blow something up. The Great Zhou is in chaos. Sooner or later, it will fall apart and become a mess.”
Shen Xingke was silent.
Although he never left his house and basically stayed in the Zishan area, he knew that the world was not peaceful.
This Great Zhou was similar to the Li Tang in all aspects.
Of course, it was the late Tang Dynasty, and Huang Chao had already ravaged the entire world, and Zhu Wen was about to depose Emperor Ai of Tang and destroy the Li Tang, opening the prelude to the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.
In short,At that time, the Great Zhou Dynasty was already half buried in the ground, almost up to the neck.
According to Nuwa, if Shen Xingke did not do something during this process, the world would soon enter a war mode. At that time, wars would be rampant, and the people would not be able to farm in peace. I am afraid that there would be another famine and cannibalism.
Just when the spirit girl was about to give up, the great goddess Nuwa finally withdrew her magical powers.
The sweaty spirit girl felt that the divine light that seemed to burn her to death had dissipated, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief and lay on the ground weakly.
After a while, she stood up with her clothes soaked, looked up at the night sky, and her eyes were full of respect and fear.
Like her, there were countless men and women in the square outside the Taiyi Temple.
It was just that the spirit girl was in awe of the gods in the sky, while those people were in awe of the spirit girl who was being watched by Taiyi.
Even Wu Xian, who once had the highest prestige among the mountain people, bowed his head in front of this spiritual woman who was truly chosen by the gods.
