Chapter 767 What have you realized? Bodhi Wonderful Leaves, My Lord is Merciful

"God will punish you, and good and evil will be rewarded..."

Jiang Yi walked past the crowd and forward, leaving behind his back and murmurs with emotion and hope.

Everything in the world is subject to cause and effect, and karma is real.

There are very few people who are purely good or purely evil. The rescue that these people received can be regarded as the result of their accumulated good deeds, while being eroded by the "evil spirit" can be regarded as the retribution for their mining of the crystallized bone marrow of the giant snake god, and their encounter with war is also the result of the cause and effect of all things.

The fate of Teyvat is set, and only the demon can change it.

However, as an outsider, he can do it.

His intervention magnified the rewards of good deeds.

Meeting him is fate.

Therefore, one can change fate and influence the predetermined fortune and misfortune…

This is a logical retribution that can be justified in any way.

It's a bit shameless, but this is the most suitable idea he could think of to respond to the offerings of incense and offerings, and it is also the idea he most hopes to achieve.

I will respond to those who are good and they will receive my favor. As for those who are evil, they will only have a glimmer of hope and will have to pray for good luck.

Everyone thought about what the Venerable meant.

Washizu was excited: "I understand what the Venerable meant... We will naturally be protected if we do good deeds."

“He is not a god, but a merciful saint, a venerable one who guides people to do good. He is the savior of suffering, the healer, and the protector.”

"He came for peace. People have evil thoughts, so there are wars. Life is precious, so the Venerable used his great supernatural powers to save those who should have died, alleviated the disabilities of the seriously injured, and cured the bleeding diseases of the slightly injured."

"He came for enlightenment, to heal us from the threat of the 'evil spirits', to awaken the sick from their confusion and madness, and to guide the ignorant to wisdom."

"The Pure Land we see, the lapis lazuli we see, the golden sky tree we see, are the roots of perfect and good vision, and the infinite golden leaves on the tree are the leaves of the wonderful truth that dispels ignorance."

"To guide people's enlightenment and kindness and to save the world from evil... is His great wish."

"If you are kind, all living beings will not be hungry, and all living beings will not be sick. If you practice diligently and accumulate good results, you will see the Tathagata."

"The cause and fate have converged, and today I have heard the truth..."

"What we see with our mortal eyes is just one aspect of the Tao."

“But there is great joy.”

"His name is Bodhi, his name is Wonderful Leaf, and he is my Lord."

Washizu had an old face and a kind expression. He slowly stood up, his eyes seeming to contain wisdom and decisions beyond that of ordinary people.

"I have sinned, I was a Shura in the past, and I am a Shura now, protecting the good path."

“Why fear life and death? When all things return to one, the great way will open up again.”

"I only wish to reach the other shore in this life and return to...the Pure Land of the Venerable."

The village chief is sick again?

The residents of Himiki Village looked at each other in bewilderment.

Ordinary people say that great joy, great sorrow, great enlightenment.

But it is difficult to know whether enlightenment is a disease or a transformation.

They already knew that after the village chief woke up from his madness, his ideas about gods and faith were different from before he fell ill. He himself was knowledgeable and experienced. Was this how he understood the words of the Venerable?

If you taste it carefully, it seems to be correct.

In addition to leaving behind a worldly name, the Venerable should also have a "divine name" or "immortal name" for them to worship and pray to.

It is disrespectful to call the Venerable by his earthly name.

Now it seems most appropriate that Washizu was named after the bodhi tree and its beautiful leaves that represent that spiritual pure land.

The Venerable emphasized that good and evil will be rewarded, which means that they should do more good deeds and pursue compassion, and they will naturally get good results.

“???” Jiang Yi heard the voice and stopped and turned back.

What did you realize for me?

Neither a god nor an immortal.

Asoka, Bodhi, Bharata, Qiye…birth, enlightenment, nirvana, preaching.

A thousand thoughts ran through my mind. I thought of General Raiden and the false god of the future. So that's how it is. It was fate, not destiny, but the inevitability brought about by the internal culture of Inazuma.

Buddhist principles!

There is a god on Mount Sumeru, and that god also inadvertently influenced the birth of this name at this moment. It is the root of good vision and the leaf of truth that breaks ignorance. That seed of consciousness completely belongs to me and catalyzes Bodhi.

The word "Bodhi" that was spoken casually at the time turned out to be a prophecy.

However, this name is me, but as Washizu said, it is only one aspect of the Tao.

Enter the Tao, have the Tao, and obtain the Tao.

I still have choices for my future.

Jiujin turned around, looked at Jiang Yi and nodded, acknowledging the honorific title.

He put his hands together and bowed in worship.

The scene that left a deep impression on him came to his mind again.

The golden Bodhi tree branches are like thousands of arms supporting the sky, penetrating deep into the dark clouds, blocking the nine heads and eighteen bloody eyes and the vast snake body of the evil god.

The golden light and colored glaze illuminated the earth, scattering many wonderful leaves to protect everyone.

It was the same when he rescued the shogunate and the rebel forces on the battlefield of Nashini Beach, reversing dreams and reality, healing the wounded with a thousand hands and saving the world.

The red lotus of karma fire sways above the dark evil sea. The Venerable is dressed in white like snow, with compassion for the world.

The sound of Washizu spread to everyone, and their faith grew.

“Praise!”

"Lord of the Wonderful Leaves of Bodhi."

"Thousands of hands and arms, sitting on a lotus pedestal."

"Bodhi wonderful leaves, my Lord is merciful."

The expressions of the people in Himuki Village changed from being slightly confused to being determined. The thousand hands and arms were great supernatural powers in the eyes of the Inazuma people. The golden Bodhi tree was the thousand arms, and the venerable man under the tree was the compassionate saint.

The lotus is a symbol of purity, and the red lotus is a symbol of salvation.

“Praise!”

"Lord of the Wonderful Leaves of Bodhi."

"Thousands of hands and arms, sitting on a lotus pedestal."

"Bodhi wonderful leaves, my Lord is merciful."

The spiritual sustenance brings unprecedented cohesion, and the pure land of dreams is right here in this world, in this Feimu Village.

Ying and Paimon opened their mouths wide.

"This... is the name of a god? But Jiang Yi doesn't have the power yet." Paimon scratched his head in disbelief, "What is this called? Half a god?"

"Maybe." Ying listened to the praises outside, "This image is a bit... weird."

"Like General Raiden, he has a special Thousand-armed image." Paimon thought deeply.

Washizu walked towards the center of the village at a leisurely pace, and the crowd followed him: "Follow me to build a temple, follow me to offer a thousand lanterns..."

Jiang Yi is now deep in the sky above Feimu Village, his figure hidden, surrounded by incense, and his faith shapes the illusory image of a god.

Although he is not a god, he is still a god in the eyes of the Inazuma people.

In the palm of his hand, a spell condensed golden light, and a tree seed was transformed and sublimated under the method of alchemical creation.

It doesn’t matter what kind of tree it was before, but in the future it will be a tree whose appearance is completely created by Jiang Yi.

Golden seeds fall.

It fell on the village's seal of subduing demons, the golden pool, the golden lamps, and the land chosen for building a temple.

The golden light fell to the ground.

Flames were born, and the years of wind, rain, thunder and lightning seemed to shrink in an instant. Then the seeds took root and penetrated deep into the ground veins of Feimu Village. The ground veins vibrated, slightly raised, and formed a slope.

When everyone saw this scene, they were not panicked because they were enveloped in a peaceful atmosphere.

A young bud grows, climbs high in an instant, the leaves sway, the branches become thick, and the twigs spread out horizontally.

The hundred-meter-tall main trunk rises straight up into the sky, forming a wavy, round crown that blocks out the sun, with aerial roots hanging down, and golden tips seem to shine.

White clouds and mist surround the trees, then dissipate into nothingness, turning into a light drizzle, bringing sweet dew to the world.

The sweet dew sprinkles on the earth, creating abundance.

Countless malt and rice grew in Himuk Village and finally turned into piles of grain.

"This tree combs the veins of the earth and protects you."

"The food will get you through this year and into next spring."

"After the spring, take some food and plant some seeds, and you will be self-sufficient."

Jiang Yi waved his hand and left the seeds.

The essence of the Bodhi tree is modeled after the silvery ancient tree on the snow-capped mountains that protects an entire country. Although it cannot grow that big, it is more than enough to protect the area around the Feimu Village.

The grain will degenerate three times, but it is still adaptable to various harsh environments, and its yield is many times higher than ordinary ones, which is enough to keep the village fed and clothed.

There is a lot of fresh water on Bayun Island, so there is no need to worry about water resources.

Rumor has it that the Coral Palace Island is barren and difficult to grow crops. While rebelling against the shogunate, they were trying to capture the grain-growing Yayun Island in order to change their living conditions.

Jiang Yi looked towards the west side of Feimu Village, at Tengdou Fort opposite the Wuxiang Blade Gorge, the rebel camp.

He looked away for a while.

The power swept across, and all the subtle evil spirits that lingered in the sky and the earth around Feimu Village, which had remained for many days due to the repair of the talisman, disappeared.

The sky is clear and the sun is shining on the island.

The sky became especially blue and the clouds especially white.

Under the Bodhi tree.

"Thank you, Lord, for giving me Bodhi." Jiujin led everyone to kneel down, "Thank you, Lord, for giving me grain seeds."

He was ready to build temples and sculptures around the Bodhi tree.

"The shogunate and the resistance may have ideas about this place. Since you are prepared to protect the village, I will give you another Qi seed and some Qi." Jiang Yi thought about it and realized that he would have to leave eventually, so he might as well give some power to Washizu so that he would have more strength to deal with the crisis in the village.

At the same time, he was also curious about what this guy could achieve with his Qi.

Shura who defends the path of goodness... this guy is ready to kill. Goodness is not weakness, it also has the look of anger.

Washizu felt a new power emerging in his body and became more pious.

"Thank you, Lord, for the power of protection."

"I will do good deeds. If I fall, please punish me endlessly. Let my soul be shattered into pieces, eaten away by nightmares, and be punished by mountains of swords and seas of fire, or by quicksand and drowning."

Jiang Yi rubbed his brows. After the evil spirit possessed him, it turned out that he failed to completely cure this guy.

Forget it, this mental illness is not a big deal.

I'll leave the rest to him and I'll have to do my own thing.

Under the leadership of himself and Washizu, the future of Himiki Village is already sufficiently secured.

Living and working in peace and contentment, this dream is not far away.

Even if the Snake Bone Mine never reopens in the future, they will lose their jobs as miners, but they can still survive as farmers and fishermen.

If there is an opportunity, we can also develop the tourism industry and prepare some local specialties to sell.

When I returned to the house, I saw Paimon, who was extremely excited and kept asking questions, and Ying, who looked reserved and curious.

"What do you think of becoming a god?"

"Quick, appoint Yingfa and I as messengers to help suppress the evil spirit, and let me eat the tribute."

"Paimon, the village of Himeki is poor enough now, and we can't host you."

"Hehe, then let's wait until they develop and then come to eat the tribute."

Jiang Yi and Ying helplessly watched Paimeng talking about food every other sentence.

Talk for a moment.

Ying sets out to investigate the Fatui's spy in the resistance, while Jiang Yi also goes to the remains of the giant snake, trying to find a way to extract its essence.

The news of the prayers and strange phenomena in Himuk Village spread to the outside world along with the pirates and spies from both armies.
