Chapter 897 Water Monkey

Li Chengxi's knowledge of Chinese mythology is limited to Journey to the West and Investiture of the Gods. It can be said that he has basically never read the others, if not nothing about them.

Not all myths are true; many are exaggerations of an original event.

For example, the legend of Houyi shooting down the sun may be about a man named Houyi who was very good at archery. Later, as the story spread, it became known that he was able to shoot down the sun.

Yes, legends always become increasingly outrageous, whether in China or abroad.

But the premise of the legend is that you have to have a prototype, it cannot come out of thin air.

The reputation of Sun Wukong is known to everyone, but in fact the image of Sun Wukong was copied. If you look back in history, you will find that before the Yuan Dynasty, there was no monkey in Tripitaka's Journey to the West. He only appeared in the Yuan Dynasty's dramas. At that time, Sun Wukong had a sworn sister named Wuzhiqi.

When Journey to the West was written in the Ming Dynasty, Wuzhiqi was simply replaced by Sun Wukong. As a result, everyone in the world knew Li Gui, but no one knew Li Kui.

Legend has it that Wuzhiqi was born in the Water Curtain Cave in Tongbai Mountain. He was born with a magical monkey. He called himself the Water Ape Great Sage, married the daughter of the Dragon King, built the Dragon Palace, and had three children.

Later, when Dayu was controlling the flood, Wuzhiqi caused trouble. Dayu got help from Yinglong to subdue the monkey and locked him up under Junshan.

This story comes from the Classic of Mountains and Seas. Many of the details in it can no longer be said to be borrowed from Journey to the West; it is almost copied verbatim.

Now, the real Li Kui has come out and is hammering at the Lei family's barrier.

I've said it before, if the monsters don't have a backup plan, it will be absolutely impossible. At the very least, they need someone to support them, otherwise a bunch of little monsters wouldn't dare to make such a big fuss even if they had eight hundred guts.

But then again, is this really the only monkey backing the monsters?

Li Chengxi felt that something was wrong. Wuzhiqi couldn't hold it up, so if it was the Monkey King, it might be about the same. Combined with Lei Lei's experience of being attacked, there might be a master behind her.

So Li Chengxi didn't rush to take action and just watched the show quietly.

But the people of the Lei family didn't dare just stand there and watch.

The Lei family's formation can defend against "spirits, monsters, demons, and ghosts" and has no effect on humans, so Li Chengxi and his men can get in directly.

But no matter how good the formation is, it has its defense limit. The monkey kept smashing around, and the formation flickered, and it didn't look very reliable.

We must get that monkey away.

"Dragon-catching palm!"

There was another angry shout, and Wuzhiqi, who was smashing the barrier, suddenly floated up, as if he was sucked away by something.

At the same time, someone from the Lei family ran out of the barrier. He was the second young master who tore his shirt.

"You, a reckless man, have finally come out. This saves me from having to waste my energy."

"Monkey, stop talking! Look at my palm!"

The second young master of the Lei family came out of the barrier and raised his hand to slap him.

The monkey was sucked by the Dragon-Catching Palm and was unable to dodge, so he directly crossed the gun barrel to take the attack.

Then three crisp sounds were heard. The second young master of the Lei family attacked fiercely with both palms, but each one was gently caught by the monkey.

"Try harder, it's not enough."

It even made some sarcastic remarks.

At the same time, many monsters emerged from the bamboo forest. They were nothing more than wood spirits, water spirits, mountain monsters, and stone monsters. They were all little monsters following Wuzhiqi. When they saw the second young master of the Lei family coming out, they all popped their heads out, as if they wanted to stand by and help Wuzhiqi.

When the Lei family saw that you were not following the moral code of the game, they all shouted things like "Second Young Master, I'm here to help you" and ran out in a swarm. If you want to rely on the barrier alone to hold on, you definitely can't hold on, so you might as well go out and fight to the death.

Li Chengxi was with the people from Section 9 and also ran forward a few steps. However, they did not leave the barrier and stood near the edge to watch the battle.

Zhang Lei, Wu Yue and their colleague from Section 9 who came with them, the guy pressed the camera so hard that sparks were coming out. It's rare to see such a large gathering of monsters, so it would be good to keep the video footage for later research.

Maybe it's an occupational disease. Even at this time, they are still thinking about taking pictures.

The people from the Lei family fought with the little monsters following Wuzhiqi, and the number of monsters was indeed far greater than that of the Lei family. Countless monsters emerged from the woods, which could be called an animal world. There were all kinds of monsters, it was very lively.

Li Chengxi was not in a hurry to take action. After all, if he went out, if the barrier was breached, Gan Xiaoyan would have no one to protect her. Besides, Wuzhiqi was definitely not the only one backing the monsters. Li Chengxi wanted to see who gave these monsters the confidence.

Although there are a large number of monsters, since they have no magic power, these little monsters are at most larger animals, such as lions, tigers, bison, wild boars, etc., which seem to be more lethal. The others are basically beaten away by the Lei family's people in a few hits.

There is a lot of quantity but the quality is poor, it's just for fun.

Deep in the bamboo forest, a group of bird monsters took off into the air again, probably intending to take advantage of the Lei family being entangled to get close to the Lingbao Palace as quickly as possible.

Now the second young master of the Lei family is interacting with Wuzhiqi and really has no time to take care of those birds.

But then again, the Lei family has more than one second young master who can fight, and the other people who can fight are not entangled by big monsters like Wuzhiqi.

Apart from anything else, Lei Lei should be able to deal with the approaching bird monsters on her own.

Li Chengxi was waiting for Lei Lei in the crowd to make any new move when suddenly, the sky darkened from the gloomy dark clouds to the pitch-black night where you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

The originally hazy sun at the horizon was now slowly shrinking, and finally only a dim circle of light remained, completely disappearing in the sky.

This scene startled everyone. It was clearly the time when the sun was rising, but it felt like it was deep in the night. One could even see the Milky Way in the sky, with brilliant stars.

Gan Xiaoyan, who was beside Li Chengxi, pointed to the direction where the sun had been and exclaimed:

"It's a Tengu!"

This Tiangou refers to the Tiangou that eclipses the sun.

Isn’t a solar eclipse a total solar eclipse?
Is this also a monster?
Li Chengxi looked in the direction Gan Xiaoyan pointed, but saw nothing but a few dog demons.

A solar eclipse is just a normal celestial phenomenon, but the ancients who did not understand the principle behind it demonized it.

"The fear of mortals can also become a demon, and it is definitely a big demon."

Gan Xiaoyan explained, and Li Chengxi was a little confused. What kind of fear can become a demon?

One person's fantasy is just a fantasy, but the fantasy of countless people may eventually come true.

What people fear and resent, when these resentments gather together, they may turn into monsters.

That should be what it means, although Li Chengxi still feels it is a bit outrageous.

After all, he was brought up with materialistic values ​​and didn't really believe in such metaphysical things. This was why Li Chengxi had been able to use divine power for a long time but had never been able to use it properly.

Divine power is too idealistic.

But the bad thing is that it's not just a matter of Tengu. It's enough that it went straight from early morning to late night. The stars in the sky suddenly seemed to disappear. In an instant, no matter whether it was a human or a demon, there was only darkness in front of them and they couldn't see anything...
