#2139 - The power of the people
#2139 - The power of the people
Although Guanyin and the Hundred Poison Centipede both wanted to stop, the battle simply couldn't be halted.
There were still many Buddhas and demonic soldiers on the battlefield, but most of them didn't obey orders.
Because most of these people were transformed from Chu Hao's heavenly soldiers and generals, they would attack and kill any Buddha or demonic soldier they saw, except for each other.
The real Buddhas and demonic soldiers on the battlefield didn't even account for half of the forces, and the rest were already lying on the ground, either dead or wounded.
Chu Hao was naturally also paying attention to the situation on the battlefield. In fact, with the battle progressing to this point, Chu Hao's goal had already been achieved.
"Lord Prison God, should we pull our people back?"
The divine general next to him asked Chu Hao.
"Not yet, there's a good show coming soon."
Chu Hao shook his head; his second step of the plan had already begun.
At this time, Tang Sanzang and his companions had completed their task of instigating the people. More than ten thousand commoners were filled with righteous indignation, and Tang Sanzang and his companions knew it was time.
Now that the people's anger had been stirred up, they needed to find a target to vent it on.
"Go smash their camp!"
"Set it on fire!"
"Drive these hypocritical bald donkeys out of Jinping Prefecture!"
Amidst shouts, the hundred thousand people angrily rushed towards the Western Heaven's camp.
As mortals, the people were naturally unable to directly fight against the Buddhas and demons, but the number of people was large. With ten thousand people joining together, they could form a huge force.
In the Western Heaven's camp, there were only a few Buddhas left to guard it.
These few Buddhas were feeling fortunate that they hadn't participated in the great battle with the demons.
"Looking at the battlefield over there, it seems very tragic."
"The demons are not easy to deal with; it's better for us to guard the home."
"The camp should be absolutely safe here."
As the few Buddhas were talking, they heard noisy shouts and footsteps outside.
"What's the situation?"
When these Buddhas walked out of the camp, they were all stunned.
The hundred thousand people were a mighty force, rushing towards the Western Heaven's camp like a tide. This scene was enough to shock people.
After the people rushed into the Western Heaven's camp, they began to smash and loot, and some even started setting fires.
Not to mention a small camp like the Western Heaven's, even a city couldn't withstand the violent demolition of ten thousand people.
In an instant, the Western Heaven's camp became a mess, with flames everywhere.
"Stop! You rebellious people, have you all gone mad?"
"This is the camp of our Western Heaven army. Are you not afraid that Western Heaven will blame you and leave you to die without a burial place?"
"Bold rebellious people, this is an evil act that will send you to hell."
The Buddhas who stayed behind all spoke out to stop the people, because if this continued, the entire camp would be finished.
"Evil bald donkeys of Western Heaven!"
"You are the ones who deserve to die without a burial place!"
"Kill them!"
The people's anger would not subside for a while, and a mere camp was not enough for them to vent their anger.
If those Buddhas who stayed behind hadn't spoken out to stop them, the people wouldn't have dared to attack them.
But when these Buddhas who stayed behind opened their mouths, it was like walking right into the line of fire.
Although these Buddhas who stayed behind also had a certain level of cultivation, their spells and supernatural powers were far superior to those of mortals, but there were only a few dozen of them in total, and half of them were previously injured.
The number of people was a hundred or a thousand times greater than theirs, and among the people, there were also Tang Sanzang and his companions mixed in to oversee the situation.
When Tang Sanzang saw a Buddha about to use his supernatural powers against the people, he directly threw the Nine-Ring锡杖 in his hand.
Tang Sanzang's strength was not small, and the Nine-Ring锡杖 accurately hit the Buddha's head.
"Ouch!"
The Buddha cried out in pain, and his whole body was stunned.
By the time he came back to his senses and wanted to attack the people, it was obviously too late.
Dozens of people had already approached, all holding wooden sticks and hoes, and the Buddha was instantly hit countless times.
The whole person fell down, crying out in pain, and the people continued to smash him violently.
In just a moment, the Buddha was smashed into a pile of minced meat.
Another Buddha successfully used his supernatural powers against the people, and it seemed that dozens of people were about to be killed by him.
But then a ray of light protected the people, resisting all the supernatural powers.
"Hmph, rush up and beat him to death!"
The one who protected the people was Sun Wukong, who gave the people a command.
The people quickly rushed up and launched an attack on the Buddha.
Even with supernatural powers protecting his body, the Buddha couldn't withstand the siege of dozens or nearly a hundred people. Amidst a pig-slaughtering-like scream, he had become somewhat disfigured.
"Set fire, burn it all!"
Zhu Bajie was even more direct, leading the people to set fires everywhere, and the fire became bigger and bigger, illuminating the surroundings.
Sha Seng led a group of people to search for supplies everywhere in the Western Heaven's camp. Anything that could be eaten or used was swept away.
After all, there were nearly ten thousand Buddha troops in the Western Heaven's camp, and these Buddhas needed to eat and use things, so there were naturally supplies piled up.
These piled-up supplies were directly divided up by the people, which was naturally a good thing for the people.
In just less than a quarter of an hour, the huge Western Heaven camp was reduced to ashes under the violent demolition of the people.
However, the people's anger didn't diminish much because they had demolished the Western Heaven's camp and beaten several Buddhas who stayed behind to death.
"Everyone, if you still have the courage, you might as well go to the battlefield and directly confront Western Heaven and the demons."
Tang Sanzang continued to shout to the people.
When the people heard these words, although they were excited, many of them also showed fear.
"Can we really confront them head-on?"
"They all have spells and supernatural powers."
"How can we be their opponents?"
Tang Sanzang and his companions had actually anticipated the people's fear, or rather, everything was within Chu Hao's expectations.
"Don't worry, everyone, I can guarantee that Western Heaven and the demons will definitely not dare to harm you, because Lord Prison God will lead the soldiers and generals to protect everyone's safety!"
Tang Sanzang shouted to the people.
Chu Hao had previously subdued demons, which had already established a considerable prestige among the people. At this time, when the people heard that Chu Hao and the heavenly soldiers and generals were protecting them, their fear naturally subsided a lot.
"Rush over and fight them!"
