The Guanyin Statues, indistinguishable from human or ghost, one carrying Duan Yun, another hauling a cocoon enveloping Shen Ying and Feng Ling'er, set forth outward.
They passed through Willow Forest and returned to the long street.
Three Guanyins walked the street.
Even in motion, they still looked like sculptures, their eyes utterly dull, skin extremely sallow.
But their silhouettes were elegant, accompanied by the misty haze, truly like Guanyin descending to the mortal world.
As they walked, a succession of door-opening sounds began to echo along the long street.
Those Guanyins previously offered to by Qi chewed candles while walking out.
In a flash, at least dozens of "Guanyins" had gathered on the street.
They not only looked identical, as gentle and compassionate as the temple's Guanyin Statues, but also shared the same height and pace.
Each Guanyin's step measured exactly two feet, as though calibrated.
