Chapter 294: The Origin of the Statue of the Nine-Tian Demon Patriarch
After Qin Shaoyou returned to Luocheng, he actually went to Luohan Temple and offered Duhua tea, Luohan Shangsu and other vegetarian delicacies to the statue of Skanda Bodhisattva.
By the way, I would like to express my gratitude to Master Suquan.
The few secret words of the Black Lotus taught to him by Master Suquan had played a certain role in the previous 'fishing operation'.
The Wei Tuo Bodhisattva statue had no reaction to the spiritual dishes. I don’t know whether it was because it didn’t like these dishes, or because it didn’t have a certain level of consciousness and magical powers like the Jiutiandangmo Patriarch statue and the Lingguan statue.
Master Suquan, on the other hand, chatted with Qin Shaoyou for a while with a smile, and even taught him a set of meditation techniques.
"I see that Qin Zongqi's cultivation is progressing very quickly. This meditation method can help you stabilize your blood energy and consolidate your cultivation. Moreover, it can be practiced and collected at any time without being disturbed by the outside world. It is very convenient."
"Thank you, Master."
Qin Shaoyou's gratitude came from the bottom of his heart, because this meditation method was indeed what he needed.
Not only can it help him stabilize his cultivation, but it can also help him absorb the energy contained in Buddha Jumping Over the Wall as quickly as possible.
Master Suquan put his hands together, recited "Amitabha", and said with a smile: "General Qin, there is no need to say thank you. If you want to say thank you, it should be me saying to you, thank you for protecting the people here."
Immediately, the two looked at each other and smiled.
After bidding farewell to Master Suquan, Qin Shaoyou did not go anywhere else and returned directly to the Demon Suppression Division.
When he stepped through the door, he was cautious and kept his eyes fixed on the statue of the founder of Jiutiandangmo in the lobby, fearing that he would be punished by the statue of the founder of Jiutiandangmo today because he stepped through the door first.
Fortunately, although the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch glanced at him, there was no special reaction. It was just a routine check and quickly turned its attention elsewhere.
Qin Shaoyou secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the statue of Jiutiandangmo Patriarch does not know that I offered spiritual food to Wang Lingguan and Wei Tuo Bodhisattva.
so far so good.
But the next moment, Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but frown: "No, why should I feel guilty and behave like a cheating scumbag?"
He glanced at the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch in the lobby, then straightened his back, returned the horse to the stable, and then entered the seventh mission room.
There were no cases to be handled today, and no one was in the mission room. They were all taken to the school grounds by Sun Xianzong, Ma Monk and a few other banners to practice.
Qin Shaoyou sat in the mission room for a while, tried to practice the meditation method taught by Master Suquan, and then went to find Xue Qingshan.
After not seeing him all night, Xue Qingshan was in high spirits, with blood all over his body, and he was full of energy from the inside out.
This made Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but marvel.
Is the medicine prescribed by Shan Daonian so powerful?
He couldn't help but feel a little moved.
But he responded quickly.
Xue Qingshan's good condition today is definitely not the result of the medicines prescribed by Shan Daonian.
Instead, he completely absorbed the energy of Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, putting himself in a state of about to break through and explode.
Qin Shaoyou asked and found out that this was indeed the case.
Xue Qingshan put down the pen in his hand, nodded with a smile and said: "Yes, I have reached the threshold of breakthrough. If everything goes well, I will break through in the next few days. Speaking of which, it all depends on you.
That Buddha jumped over the wall!"
This is true. If Buddha had not jumped over the wall, it would have taken some time for him to reach his current state.
It is even possible to get stuck and never reach this state.
Buddha Jumps Over the Wall not only shortens the time required for breakthrough, but also increases the probability of breakthrough.
However, acting requires a complete performance, so Qin Shaoyou did not take credit and waved his hand: "Don't thank me. If you want to thank me, just thank the statue of the Patriarch. It's all a gift from his old man."
"Yes, yes, I have to thank my ancestor." Xue Qingshan stood up and bowed towards the lobby.
Although the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch noticed his move, he didn't want to pay attention to him at all.
This made Xue Qingshan a little embarrassed.
However, he was used to this kind of embarrassment, so he laughed and said: "The statue of the Patriarch is still as serious and unsmiling as ever!"
After a pause, he looked at Qin Shaoyou and forcibly changed the topic.
"Why did you come to see me?"
"Nothing else, I just want to ask, what kind of existence are these statues of the Nine Heavens Demon Patriarch in our Demon Suppression Department?"
When Xue Qingshan heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned: "Why do you suddenly think of asking this?"
Qin Shaoyou explained: "It's not a sudden idea. I was wondering before. According to the official statement of our Demon Suppression Department, the Jiutian Demon Patriarch is like a supernatural object, but it happens to have a certain degree of self-awareness. Not long ago, I went to
There seems to be information exchange between the statue of Jiutiandang Mo Patriarch enshrined in Jincheng and Zhouzhen Yaosi and the one enshrined in Luocheng.
So I’m very curious, is it, or rather them, a supernatural object or a spirit?”
After hearing these questions, Xue Qingshan chuckled.
"The statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch enshrined by our Demon Suppression Department is not a spirit, but it is indeed not an ordinary supernatural object.
At the beginning of the establishment of the Demon Suppression Division, the night watchmen discovered a statue of the founder of Jiutian Demon with divine power and residual spiritual thoughts on Mount Taihe.
The first commander brought the broken statue back to the capital, mobilized a large number of skilled craftsmen, and invited experts from the Taoist sect to help. He spent a lot of resources to repair it and enshrined it in the headquarters of the Demon Suppression Division in the capital.
During the repair process, many fragments were left unrecoverable.
These fragments not only contain weak divine power, but are also connected to the restored statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch, so naturally they cannot be thrown away casually.
So the first commander ordered that skilled craftsmen use these fragments as the core to make multiple statues of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch, which were placed in the Yamen of the Demon Suppression Department in each state to assist the night watchmen and suppress evil spirits.
, cleanse the demons.
These statues of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch made from fragments are from the same sect, so they can communicate with each other, and even communicate with the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch enshrined in the capital headquarters.
In the past many years, the night watchmen in various demon-suppressing departments have also visualized many methods of subduing demons through the statues of the Nine-Tian Demon-Draining Patriarch in their respective demon-suppressing departments. People like you have been succumbed to the Nine-Tian Demon-Damaging
There are many stories of ancestors teaching skills through dreams."
"So that's it."
After listening to Xue Qingshan's story, Qin Shaoyou had a new understanding of the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch.
At the same time, he also understood why these Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch statues had self-awareness.
It turns out that it's because they share a ray of spiritual thought.
In this way, the statue of the spiritual official enshrined in the Jade Emperor Temple probably also has spiritual thoughts or residual divine power, so it can teach skills through dreams.
But since there are true gods in this world, why are demons and ghosts running rampant now, and evil gods and demons everywhere, but we don’t see them coming to the world to cleanse the evil spirits and save the world?
Is there any obstacle that prevents them from coming, so they can only teach people their skills so that they can save themselves?
Xue Qingshan couldn't give an answer to this question.
As for the statue of the Patriarch of Jiutiandang Demon, although it has a certain degree of self-awareness, it cannot answer the question raised by Qin Shaoyou.
"So, you have to rely on yourself for everything, just like the song goes."
Qin Shaoyou secretly thought in his heart.
In the next few days, he continued to refine the energy in Buddha Jumping Over the Wall.
After completely absorbing it, his cultivation reached the peak of the seventh level as expected.
At this time, Qin Shaoyou was consolidating his cultivation while cooking new spiritual dishes. He wanted to continue to strengthen his blood and spirit and lay a solid foundation for reaching the sixth level of martial arts.
But when he was cooking a new dish called firewood ghost, he encountered a strange thing.
