I Knocked Down the Idol, and You Tell Me the Gods Have Awakened

A stone statue of Guanyin stood by the roadside, drawing countless people to worship it.

Unfortunately, it was an illegal structure and had to be demolished.

Lin Chen's elderly father was the worker assigned to take it down.

When the excavator's arm rose, onlookers began pointing fingers.

"The gods are watching from three feet above your head. If people don't honor the gods, Heaven itself will punish them!"

"The gods must be revered. Those who fail to honor the Buddhas will suffer misfortune in this life and be reborn as pigs or dogs in the next!"

"No wonder he's been a laborer all his life, if he's even willing to knock down a divine statue!"

The boss was getting desperate. He even announced that whoever could demolish the statue would receive a hundred times the compensation.

Then Lin Chen showed up.

"As long as the money's right, I'll knock down anything, even a god!"

Lin Chen took the cash, rolled up his sleeves, and toppled the statue.

But then!

Right at that moment...

The gods awakened!
