Chapter 143 Will Kamen Rider and Ultraman also exist?
The heavy rain covered up all sounds nearby.
Inside the viewing pavilion, Pinggong Qianye's fingers gently plucked the Dharma bowl, creating circles of ripples.
Inside the Dharma bowl, as ripples continued to spread, the clam opened its hard shell and spit out round bubbles from its mouth.
"Are you comfortable?"
Pinggong Qianye continued to play a few more times with his right index finger, and the sea water in the Dharma bowl began to ripple even bigger.
The bubbles coming out of the clam's mouth became more rapid and dense.
"Gao, senior monk, please let me go."
The clam, which was already dizzy and vomiting, finally couldn't help but speak.
"I knew that a monster as smart as you should have understood human nature long ago."
Seeing that it was willing to talk, Pinggong Qianye stopped playing the Dharma bowl.
"Thank you, Master, for showing mercy."
"Tell me, why are you wandering around this sea area disguised as Godzilla?"
"Master, can I change my appearance and talk to you again?"
"can."
After getting the nod, the clam's body flashed with a dreamy colorful light. Under Pinggong Qianye's gaze, its entire body turned into a little novice monk holding Buddhist beads, floating on the water in the Dharma bowl.
If you look at it with the naked eye, it is difficult to tell that it is transformed, and there is indeed no obvious flaw.
"Amitabha."
The young monk faced Pinggong Qianye and bowed his head and chanted the Buddha's name with a pious expression, but his posture of saluting was a little unnatural.
"Your transformation skills are indeed amazing."
"Thank you for the compliment, Master."
As the young monk spoke, he explained clearly what he had done.
Although the clam clan is good at changing their magical powers, these are all false illusions. Their real bodies are weak and even if they cultivate into monsters, they have no good means of defense.
There are many marine creatures in the sea that can eat them all in one bite, so most of the time, they will use their magical powers to transform the nearby waters into a dangerous place to prevent predators from approaching.
After this clam had achieved success in its cultivation, it felt that this method was not suitable for the clam clan's practice, so it risked its life to sneak close to human settlements in coastal areas.
By chance, it saw humans on the seashore offering sacrifices to Godzilla.
After that, it quietly tried to disguise itself as Godzilla by transforming itself.
Then, its demonic power became stronger and stronger, and it became smarter and smarter.
Pinggong Qianye listened to the story of the clam in silence, then shook his head and said, "Do you know which level of hell a creature who is good at lying will go to in Buddhism?"
The little monk shuddered all over, his eyes filled with panic.
"Tongue-Pulling Hell is a punishment for those who are habitual liars."
"..."
The little monk lowered his head silently.
In response, Pinggong Qianye did not force the clam to speak.
There is no trace of human blood on it, which means it has never harmed anyone. It will not harm such monsters.
However, it lied about this issue, which made Pinggong Qianye feel suspicious.
The rain was still falling, and fishermen were coming through the rain not far away.
Pinggong Qianye let the clam return to its original state and stay obediently in the Dharma bowl.
After a while, a man and two women came out through the rain. One of the man and the woman should be in their early 30s, and the other little girl was about 7 years old. They looked like a family of three.
"It's the Master."
The family of three who came here to take shelter from the rain were a little shocked when they saw Pinggong Chiye.
"Why is the master here so late at night?"
"I came here to avoid the rain."
Pinggong Qianye smiled and started chatting with them.
They are all fishermen living not far away. They have just returned from sea and came here to take shelter from the heavy rain.
"You dare to go out to sea to fish in such bad weather?" Paipinggong Qianye asked curiously.
"Godzilla will protect us." The little girl's clear voice interrupted the conversation.
The little girl's parents looked a little strange, and said with an awkward smile: "We fishermen on the coast all believe in Godzilla to some extent. It is a god that protects us in myths and legends."
"Godzilla is real!" the little girl said with certainty.
Ping Gong Qianye smiled and said: "Have you ever seen Godzilla in person?"
"I haven't seen it, but my uncle has. He is a lighthouse keeper."
The little girl was not wary at all. After talking with Pinggong Qianye for a few words, she was no longer shy. She came closer and looked down at the clam in Pinggong Qianye's bowl.
"Master, what kind of clam is this? It looks so pretty."
The little girl stared at the clam in the bowl without blinking, and even gently stretched out a finger into the bowl to poke the clam that had already closed its mouth.
“It is indeed rare.”
Pinggong Qianye did not stop the little girl's actions, but glanced at the clam.
Its shell is pure white with no other colors, shiny and of moderate size. Even if it just lies quietly in the bowl, it can attract people's attention.
"It looks sad." the little girl murmured.
The little girl wanted to take a few more looks before she was pulled back by her mother.
"Master, don't be surprised. Children always say stupid things."
Hiramiya Chiye smiled but said nothing, then turned the topic back to Godzilla.
"To be honest, Master, none of us have seen Godzilla in person, but there are indeed gods on the sea that protect us fishermen. I have personally witnessed several cases where boats were capsized by huge waves, but none of the fishermen on board were injured or killed."
"Perhaps it is really the gods who are protecting you." Pinggong Qianye said meaningfully.
"Godzilla must be protecting us in the ocean."
The little girl was in her mother's arms, raising her chin with pride.
"Yes, Godzilla has always been our guardian angel." The little girl's mother caressed her child's head lovingly.
"Godzilla is the strongest sea creature. When it stands up, it is as tall as dozens of stories."
The little girl gestured happily, "The footprints it left behind are so big, and they are getting bigger every day. People in the village are saying that Godzilla is growing stronger and stronger."
"Ah, Master, the rain has subsided a bit, it's time for us to go home."
The little girl's parents picked her up, said goodbye to Pinggong Qianye in a hurry, and left the viewing pavilion in the heavy rain that had not yet stopped, disappearing in the rain.
Are they worried about something?
Pinggong Qianye was naturally aware of the little thoughts they showed. "Are you also the deity responsible for saving people at sea?" Pinggong Qianye looked at the clam in the bowl.
"Yes, my demonic power is growing day by day, all because of the devout faith of humans. I understand this clearly, so when I meet humans in need of help on the sea, I will lend a helping hand."
"Good."
"Master, are you willing to believe the one-sided words of a monster like me?"
"Humans are not all good, and monsters are certainly not all evil."
The clam's expression moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he chose to remain silent.
"You are not some evil monster that harms people. I will let you return to the sea right now."
"Master, are you really willing to let me go?"
The clam opened its mouth, and its white pearl-like eyes were watery and blinking.
Pinggong Qianye nodded, and when he saw that the rain had subsided a little, he picked up the Dharma bowl, left the viewing pavilion, and headed for the beach.
We are going to release this clam and let it return to the sea.
Just as we walked onto the beach, a strange roar came from afar through the rain.
This sound is very similar to the sound made by the mantis when it disguised itself as Godzilla.
Pinggong Chiye stood there, looking towards the distant sea through the rain.
There were huge waves surging there, and the dorsal fins protruding from the sea surface were like mountain peaks, pushing away the waves.
Hidden beneath the sea is a huge creature.
It looks like a dinosaur, with a huge body, a big head and scales, and is almost exactly the same as the image of Godzilla that the clam transformed into before.
"Venerable monk, please don't misunderstand. This must be an elder in our Clam clan who has always treated me very well. He saw that I had not returned for a long time, so he came out to look for me." Clam explained anxiously.
It lied on this statement.
This proves that the huge beast that is pushing away the huge waves at this moment is not the elder of their clam clan.
Moreover, Pinggong Qianye did not detect any trace of demonic aura from the huge beast hidden beneath the sea.
That is not a monster, but a purely natural creature.
"Master, please let me return to the sea first, and I will explain to it. My elder is very reasonable, and it will leave soon."
The clam in the Dharma bowl became even more anxious.
"So this is why you lied."
Pinggong Qianye watched for a long time and finally figured out the key to all this.
The clam in the Dharma bowl is indeed a fake Godzilla.
But this does not mean that there is no real Godzilla in the ocean.
It really exists in the ocean, and is now pushing away huge waves and heading towards him.
"Master, please let me go immediately, otherwise something terrible will happen!"
The clam became more and more anxious. "My elder has a bad temper. Once he gets angry, no creature in the sea can stop him."
"It is indeed difficult for any living being to stop it."
"So, please let me go right away."
"Go."
Pinggong Qianye mobilized his magic power and the bowl in his hand flew out, moving along the sea surface, then turned it over and released the clams inside back into the sea.
The huge waves have already surged onto the beach, and Godzilla's figure is becoming more and more obvious.
Pinggong Qianye could clearly see its complete appearance.
Although his image is slightly different from that on the screen, his figure is handsome and domineering in every aspect, and his eyes are filled with wisdom.
It is very smart and its wisdom is by no means inferior to that of ordinary people.
When Chiya Hiramiya was looking at Godzilla, it stopped moving, raised its head from under the sea, and looked at Chiya Hiramiya on the beach through the rain and the sea.
After a while, the clam that swam to Godzilla turned into a slightly smaller Godzilla and returned to the sea together with the real Godzilla.
"Seeing Godzilla with my own eyes is a rare event."
Pinggong Qianye whispered, returned to the viewing pavilion, took out his mobile phone, and logged into the Pudu APP forum.
After thinking about it, I made a new post: "Godzilla is really handsome."
Below is a picture of Godzilla found on the Internet.
Soon, a bunch of comments were posted under the post.
"Godzilla? Why did Master Liansheng suddenly mention Godzilla?"
"Could it be that Master Liansheng beat up Godzilla as well?"
"I think it should be the other way around. Godzilla beat up Master Liansheng."
"But does a legendary creature like Godzilla really exist in this world?"
“If Godzilla really exists in reality, then Kamen Rider and Ultraman should also be real, right?
Pinggong Qianye quietly read through the comments and did not respond to anything.
When he exited the Pudu APP, a private message from Shuichi Hiratani came to him.
[Master Liansheng, did you really see Godzilla? ]
【Meet by chance】
Hiramiya Chiye did not hide this. Hiramiya Shuichi and the others knew very well that they would not do anything without a purpose. When they saw what he posted on the forum, they knew that they must have encountered the real Godzilla.
[Master Liansheng, didn't you catch a Godzilla as a pet? ]
[Your idea is dangerous]
[Next time you meet Kamen Rider and Ultraman, remember to take a photo together! ]
[Next time for sure]
Pinggong Qianye chatted with the talkative Pinggu Shuichi for a while, then turned off his phone, looked at the sea in the distance with lightning and thunder, and continued to practice the Thunder and Roar Bodhisattva.
The next morning, the rain stopped and the sky cleared up.
Hiramiya Chiye went to the fisherman's house early in the morning and boarded his boat to Tokushima Prefecture.
Besides him, there were two other young couples on board.
One of the couples was asking about the legend of Godzilla in this sea area.
Pinggong Qianye stood at the bow, his eyes swept across the sparkling sea, and saw a clam in the distance transformed into a little monk, seeing him off.
