doll city

Chapter 117 The Great Sage

——When my grandma was young, I once heard such a story told by my grandma.One year, there was a flood in Ciling, and the mouth of the two rivers swelled so much that many people died.

——At that time, a wandering Taoist said that there were demons haunting Ciling underwater, and that a statue of demon-subduing demons had to be built on the ground to save Ciling.

——Your grandpa, while doing disaster relief, asked each porcelain factory to get the best soil, a hundred statues of gods, such as Jade Emperor Tathagata Buddha, they turned into slag after entering the kiln, and in the end it became just such a battle Buddha.

——Afterwards, the big holy statue went to the "longan" pointed out by the Taoist priest, and the sky cleared up immediately, and the flood receded.For more than 100 years since then, there has been no flood in Ciling.

Gu Lili liked to hear such stories when she was a child, but Yan Ge only believed in science at that time, although he didn't expose it, he didn't take it seriously.

That's just a story, there is no god in this world...

does not exist?Or all the time.

Going back to a question I had when I first came to this city, there is a difference in strength between dolls and dolls. Generally speaking, exquisite, special, and unique things are stronger, but this The distinction is too vague.

The body of the Vientiane Dragon Snake can only be seen everywhere, why can it grow to this extent?

Even if its existence is accidental, how to explain Luca, the king of living puppets?His power did not originate from himself, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why after the Vientiane Dragon Snake devoured him, his power was transformed.

All this means that the total amount of "power" is conserved, and is distributed to each living doll with a certain "standard".

What is this standard?

"...How are you sure that an antique porcelain statue can save this city? It can't even be turned into a living puppet, and I can smash it!"

Xiao Yi stepped on the gas pedal all the way, and she was flying like lightning. Listening to Yan Ge's confusing statement, her mind was also full of question marks.

"Exquisite, well-known, much-loved, unique...in human form."

Yan Ge huddled on the car seat, he kept adjusting his existence, the closer he was to Gu Lili's image, the more clearly he could hear the call from the bottom of his heart.

There were other passing vehicles outside the car window, and Yan Ge saw that some children were looking in the same direction as him in the staggered car windows.

They also heard that it was not some kind of language, but a kind of will.

As long as you believe, God exists.

At this time, a thunderous sound came from the huge shadow of the Vientiane Dragon Snake in the distance. It seemed to be wrestling with something, shaking its head in pain. The outer wall is scattered in all directions like a rain of knives.

A crackling rain of glass fell, followed by a sharp stabbing pain at the spiritual level.

The driver of the oncoming vehicle seemed to have also been mentally attacked, and the front of the car slid towards them.

"hide!"

Yan Ge broke out of the window immediately, smashed into the window, and grabbed the driver's steering wheel. Even so, it couldn't prevent the bus from turning over.

After the screeching sound of skidding, the vehicle full of people hit the street lamp on the side of the road.

Xiao Yi got out of the car immediately: "Yan Ge! Are you okay?"

Then she found wounded people everywhere in the car, as well as crying children.

The body of Wanxiang Dragon Snake is only a few kilometers away from here, and if they are rescued one by one, even at the fastest speed, they cannot escape.

Xiao Yi knew the priorities, but it was a very difficult decision for her if she really wanted to ignore the situation in front of her.

"We have to go, Yan Ge." She gritted her teeth and said, "There are still many people in the city, and we cannot save them."

"and many more."

At this time, Yan Ge looked at his hands strangely, stepped out of the overturned bus, and looked at the toy store on the side.

"what are you doing?"

"I think I can..." Yan Ge looked at the dead dolls in the toy store, blinked his eyes, deep in his pupils, a deep green light like a lake emerged.

Xiao Yi asked: "What's wrong with you?"

Yan Ge opened his mouth and pointed at the dolls——

"I would like to hear your voice, and I would like to be your master."

"I give you miracles of creation, and you should follow my heart."

Just as Xiao Yi was about to ask, she was stunned. She saw the green eyes of those dolls, stood up one by one from the window, bowed slightly to Yan Ge, and then they walked out of the toy store, surrounded the overturned bus, Pick up the wounded inside and flee towards the edge of the city.

Not only that, Xiao Yi also saw as far as she could see, the stone lions in front of the office building, the elephants on the slide in the park, and the models in the shopping mall emerged from the buildings one by one, and found other human beings in the city nearby. leave them.

This influence, like dominoes, is still expanding.

Xiao Yi looked at Yan Ge in shock: "Can you imitate Luca? You have the ability to become a living puppet?"

This city is a stage, and every character has his singing and acting.

Everything is inevitable.

Yan Ge remembered that Li Ya seemed to have said a word to him at some point.

"Now I'm starting to believe in fate too... let's go and 'dot the eyes' on the big statue."

……

It was raining in the middle of the city.

No other sound can be heard in the rain, only the sound of the strings flowing in the wind.

The performer is like the craziest snake dancer, he is playing while walking in the heavy rain with his eyes closed, and the huge shadow behind him is his only audience.

The notes tried to cleanse its soul time and time again, but what they got was the echo of confusion and pain.

In those echoes, he heard a familiar voice, and Yi Ziang's judgment was correct, anyone who was sucked into it by the Vientiane Dragon Snake would become part of its spiritual ocean.But those voices were too weak... and were soon overwhelmed by its main consciousness.

Li Ya heard Diana's voice and disappeared.

It is like a black hole, and everything in the outside world, whether it is good or bad, condemnation or redemption, will be swallowed by it.

It will expand infinitely until it fills up this space and devours itself.

"It's my turn, I hope I'm still your fan."

Tang Yuan didn't talk much nonsense, and walked into the shadowy rain.

The movement of the Vientiane Dragon and Snake stopped for a while and got a new sacrifice, and it continued to move slowly following the performer's melody.

"After it has digested us all, it will definitely break free from your performance. If you delay for a second, you may live an extra life." Yi Ziang said, he observed that the Vientiane Dragon and Snake's movements became more and more frequent, so he I know I'm leaving too.

He stepped back and approached the Vientiane Dragon Snake.

"I know you can't talk anymore, but my instinct tells me that what we do has a meaning, just like Luca and Alice, it must also have a 'heart'."

"Also, cousin, you are probably gone like me... In case, in case you can go out, tell my mother, I don't regret it."

After speaking, he also sacrificed himself.

Li Ya didn't answer, the strings in his hands kept vibrating, there was no audience he couldn't conquer in the world, but the monster who lost his heart was not included.

There is still a long way to go, but the wailing in the city has not stopped.

Many are reluctant to leave, either out of fear of safety, or lust for power here, or fear of their own crimes.

There are more people, they want to go, but they can't reach the edge of the city.

The "gravity" of the Vientiane Dragon Snake is constantly increasing, with it as the center, the gravitational force it causes is almost equal to the gravity.

Everything is collapsing in an irreversible direction, and no one can destroy it.

Sacrifice, right now.

After making this plain and calm judgment, Li Ya suddenly stopped playing, opened his eyes, and looked towards the museum outside the rain curtain in front of him.

Yan Ge is there.

……

It was the third time I set foot on the square in front of the museum. It was already a flat land. The clock tower, fountain pool, and museum were all sucked in the direction of the Vientiane dragon and snake along with the wind of destruction.

In the entire square, there is only one, once inconspicuous porcelain statue left.

Xiao Yi struggled to climb on the edge of the stone platform, biting the paintbrush to tie herself to the big holy statue.

The big holy statue in front of him was sprayed with golden paint from the beginning to the end, and his true color could not be seen at all.

"He's trapped inside."

...As a painter, if you can't do it, you have to work hard.

Xiao Yi bit the tip of her tongue and raised her spirits, and put a stroke in the eyes of the Great Saint.

But the moment it touched his pupils, it was blown away like an electric shock.

"how so?!"

At the same time, the Vientiane Dragon Snake suddenly reacted to this. In the clouds and rain, it lowered its head, its red eyes looked in this direction, but the upper part of its body was still trapped by the sound of the violin, only the tail swept wildly. Over the ground, rows of blocks were flattened, and dense stone rain smashed in this direction from outside the block.

Yan Ge made a decisive decision, cut off the stone platform under the statue's feet with a lancet, and moved the entire two-meter-high ceramic statue away from the area where the stone rain fell.

A cloud of dust exploded across the area.

"It's afraid of this!" Xiao Yi was surprised and delighted, and then immediately fell into anxiety, "But I can't draw it alive! I can't color it!"

The great icon was silent.

Xiao Yi pinched herself: "It doesn't matter, if you don't let me touch my eyes, I will do what I can!"

She remembered all the pictures she had seen, including the old photos of the Great Holy Statue of Ciling that she occasionally glimpsed in the information given by Dai Chengze. She remembered every inch of texture and color.So she bit her finger, and using blood as ink, quickly painted the color on the big holy statue.

There was constant movement behind him, and some puppets that had just been awakened by Yan Ge blocked the rain of stones that kept flying from behind.

Yan Ge wiped his bleeding forehead and looked directly at the big holy statue.

"What do you want to reveal your true body? Tell me, even if you devour me!"

Intuition told him that this big holy statue was different from other puppets, and he couldn't wake them up in the same way as other puppets.

... He could feel that Li Ya was right behind him, guarding the last line of defense.

He cannot fail.

"I don't have enough blood..."

Xiao Yi also felt that it was extremely laborious to smear the big holy statue. When she looked back, Yan Ge scratched her palm without hesitation.

"Use mine."

"What if it doesn't work?"

"Better than doing nothing."

Xiao Yi nodded heavily, and used Yan Ge's blood to paint the feathers, hairpin tassels, chain mail, and red face of the Great Saint Statue little by little... Finally, taking a deep breath, she tapped on the eyes of the Great Saint Statue .

The moment he dropped his finger, a dazzling golden light suddenly magnified in front of Yan Ge's eyes, flooding his entire field of vision.

Then, he saw... a light and shadow sitting on the ruins, with a faint outline, but he could tell that it was an indelible shadow in everyone's memory.

Monkey King.

Yan Ge stood there in a daze.

He really... really exists.

Later, Yan Ge heard his will.

He is special, he is the only one in the whole city, he is a servant, an actor, only he can "act"... But this time, it seems that it is not just about acting.

"Why didn't you show up?" Yan Ge couldn't help asking.

"Because the world no longer has me in its heart."

Some messy human voices entered Yange's ears, and he heard the voices that the great holy statue had heard here for many years.

——Old stuff, who still likes these now, haven’t you grown up?

——Only the old man and the old lady are willing to take a photo and punch in the face, is it interesting?

——It’s a broken thing, it should be dismantled a long time ago, it takes up space.

He has been forgotten for too long, and he is out of tune with the whole modern world.

Yan Ge was silent, he could not refute, most people in this city no longer believed in the ancient legends.And a god who lacks "faith" is no longer a god, but just an ordinary stone.

At the end of Journey to the West, he has achieved a golden body, so he can care about ordinary things.

but……

Yan Ge said stubbornly again: "But you will save us."

"Why?"

"Because you are Monkey King." A smile appeared on Yan Ge's pale face, he suddenly remembered himself when he was a child, and he had imitated him just like Gu Lili.

Coincidentally, that was also his first exposure to acting.

"Because you are a great sage, you don't care about gods, monsters, or gods, but there are sufferings, and you don't love the golden body." Yan Ge said.

"what."

Laughter suddenly burst out from the golden shadow, and the great sage turned into a burst of golden light and rushed into Yan Ge's eyes, and the familiar and incomparable voice in his memory exploded in his ears.

"My grandson is here too!!"
