Please control me, my divine being!

Chapter 123 Medicine Buddha, the Twelve Great Vows to Protect the World

Although Gu Qinghan did not know what kind of bones he was nurturing, Zhou Qing could see them.

In the game interface, a brand new status entry appeared prominently below Gu Qinghan's status bar as her memories were restored.

You recalled your past memories and learned that the Crying Bone you carried was the priceless Nuwa Finger Bone.

According to legend, Nüba was the daughter of an ancient celestial god and the first drought goddess in the world. Wherever she passed, the land parched and barren, possessing the divine power to transform the world.

Zhou Qing continued reading.

[Status acquired: Nuwa usurps the throne.]

Since the death of Nüba east of the Red River, the position of the Drought God has been vacant. The Corpse Path evolved and devoured the position, hence the existence of Drought Demons in the world.

Although Nüba is dead, her divine spirit remains and continues to exist in the Seven Heavens Palace, awaiting her return to the world.

Since childhood, you have cultivated the finger bones of the Nüba body, and have already received the favor of this divine position.

It is possible to sense through Nüba's finger bones, collect her remaining remains, completely seize her position, become a new god, or be possessed by her, allowing her to return to the world.

"It's somewhat like walking or responding to the body, but on a more sophisticated level."

Zhou Qing carefully studied this status entry. Although it didn't have any effect, the things it involved were secrets that ordinary cultivators would absolutely find difficult to access.

Female demon!

A god that doesn't sound like a mere trifle.

As for collecting the other party's corpses and seizing their position, that's just wishful thinking.

Li Qinghe killed a River God who had been tormented by the Huang family for countless years. After the offering of the Altar God tablet was digested, he was able to enter the Altar God realm for the first time.

The success rate of directly seizing Nüba's position should be infinitely close to zero.

Anyone who harbors such thoughts will inevitably be assimilated into a vessel by Nüba.

However, some of the secrets about the Corpse Path have already been uncovered about Gu Qinghan, but what about Xie?

"As I understand it, this path should be a combination of corpse and evil, hence it is rare. Nowadays, apart from being able to transform into an evil spirit, I haven't seen any connection with evil spirits."

Zhou Qing couldn't figure it out, so he could only put the matter of Nüba aside.

Gu Qinghan now only has a finger bone left, and it will be a long time before the demon succumbs to her body.

The escaped village chief is the most important thing right now. There's plenty to explore in this small place called Songzi Bay. (In gaming terms...)

They say this is a treasure map.

Gu Qinghan followed Gu Changhe all the way into the boat dock.

This is the largest complex of buildings in Songziwan.

In the past, fishing was one of the main sources of livelihood for the villagers of Songziwan. Almost every one of the hundreds of households in the village was a fisherman.

Some of the best catches would be transported by boat to Jiang'an City for sale.

However, after receiving the talisman rice bestowed by the God of Fertility, the entire boat-keeping area was abandoned. This large area, where land and water meet, was filled with many sampans, awning boats, and several fishing boats that looked quite decent.

The entire building was constructed from many cloth sheds and pillars, surrounded by walls, with several stone houses in the middle. Fishing nets and fish racks could be seen drying everywhere, which should be the place where boats were repaired in the boat mooring workshop.

Gu Qinghan walked along the wooden boardwalk over the water.

The wooden door of the stone house at the very front was still open, and it seemed that Gu Changhe had hurriedly fled inside, with fresh shoe prints still on the ground.

Having some understanding of the methods of these "cultivators," she did not hesitate and immediately stepped into the area. Following the green blood that appeared on the ground from time to time, she quickly found the Ancient River.

The village chief did not continue his escape.

He was sitting in a room, kneeling on a prayer mat, worshipping a Buddha statue that was three zhang tall.

The Buddha statue is not made of stone, but carved from some kind of wood, and its surface is painted with a layer of green paint, resembling the color of glass.

He sat cross-legged in the hall, his face dignified and round, his expression solemn and serene, his eyes lowered, and a slight smile on his lips.

The Buddha statue holds a medicine bowl in its left hand, which contains nectar and miraculous medicine. Its right middle and index fingers are joined together, holding a pill, giving it a compassionate and merciful appearance.

Gu Changhe lit three incense sticks in front of the Buddha statue, knelt down with his hands clasped together, and kept chanting: "Namo Bhagavate, Bhaisajya, Guru Vaidurya."

Prabha, Ragha, Tathagata.

Arhat, Samyak Sambuddha...

"Namo Bhaisajyaguru Buddha, whose light shines without end, may my body be like lapis lazuli, clear and bright inside and out..."

Gu Qinghan took two steps forward, grabbed his head with one hand, and with a little force, twisted Gu Changhe's head off like pulling a radish.

Anyway, this guy isn't going to die, let's stop him first.

If you want to ask something later, there will be plenty of time.

In an instant, the entire hall fell silent. Gu Qinghan saw that beneath his empty skin were dense roots, far more vibrant than the spiritual roots of other villagers, and some vines had even blossomed and borne fruit within his body.

"It seems they've been taking good care of it."

She gave a compliment and turned to leave.

But the door was slammed shut by the wind. Looking back, the Buddha statue blinked and looked at her calmly: "Fellow Daoist, be lenient when you can. It's not easy for me to train a disciple. Such a large area as Songziwan needs someone to look after it."

Since it was my people who attacked first, I will apologize in advance.

After the Buddha finished speaking, he reached out and swept his hand across the front of the altar, and a lush green willow branch appeared, instantly filling the Buddhist hall with rich spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy contained in the willow branch was even more abundant than that of the peach she had eaten earlier!

"You've stumbled into this place by mistake, intending only to return to Jiang'an by boat. I'll arrange for someone to prepare a boat for you shortly. Now that I've killed someone and apologized, you haven't suffered any loss, so let's let this go and not interfere with each other anymore, shall we?"

The Buddha statue spoke calmly, without any anger, as if it were discussing a business deal.

"Are you the monk from the fertility temple on the mountain?"

"Indeed, my Dharma name is Miaohui. I am a humble servant boy pounding medicine under the tutelage of the Medicine Buddha." The Buddha statue spoke again: "If you wish to visit the mountain, I will certainly welcome you with open arms."

Gu Qinghan frowned and continued, "And what about the women in the village?"

"They are all willing to follow my path and have already taken refuge in my Buddha."

Before attaining enlightenment, Bhaisajyaguru Buddha made twelve great vows in the human realm.

Among them are those who have all their senses intact and are free from pain, who obtain wonderful food and drink to satisfy their cravings, who are freed from bondage and suffering, and who are transformed from women into men and possess the characteristics of great men.

I am here to ferry these suffering people across the boundless sea of ​​misery.

Miao Hui's voice carried a strong Buddhist tone: "Fellow Daoist, you have only seen the tip of the iceberg, which is why there is a misunderstanding today."
