Working as a consultant in the Ultra Universe

Chapter 1004: Guessing the intention, temple offerings

"The consultant just said that Tiga might want us to build a temple to enshrine this stone statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."

After hearing what Higashi Kotaro said, Nishida Jiro immediately began to repeat Gu Chen's previous guess.

"Worship? This is fine... Why do you want us to worship this stone statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva?"

Upon hearing this, Higashi Kotaro couldn't help but tilt his head, a little confused.

"Could it be that Tiga is like the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Buddhism, and needs people to offer him incense and prayers?"

Kitajima Tetsuya was also confused about this.

"Idiot, how is that possible? If that's the case, why is it the stone statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva? Shouldn't it be the stone statue of Tiga?"

As soon as Kitajima Tetsuya finished speaking, Minamihara Tadao slapped him on the helmet and retorted.

"Uh...that makes sense."

Kitajima Tetsuya was stunned and speechless for a moment.

"I do know some reasons." At this time, Gu Chen suddenly spoke, immediately attracting everyone's attention, "In fact, in this rural village, there has always been a legend about Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva suppressing and sealing the evil spirits."

"Evil demon? Consultant, are you talking about the monster that looked like Yama King just now?"

After hearing what Gu Chen said, Jiro Nishida reacted immediately.

"That's right, the King of Hell monster Enmago is the evil demon that was sealed by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in the legend of the nearby village."

Gu Chen nodded and continued, "It seems that due to unknown reasons, the evil spirit broke through the seal and caused the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva statue to be destroyed. So after Tiga dealt with the evil spirit, in order to thank the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva statue for its previous efforts, he rebuilt a body for it and let it enjoy the offerings of the world."

"Eh? Is that really the case? It's just a stone statue. Can it really be so powerful as to suppress and seal such a powerful monster?"

Hearing Gu Chen's words, everyone cast their curious eyes towards the freshly-made stone statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, and exclaimed in an incredible tone.

"Yes, the statues have spirits. In my past career, I have also encountered a statue with weak divine power." Gu Chen nodded affirmatively, "But in comparison, the divine power of the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva statue that suppresses and seals the evil spirits is even stronger. This may be because it has been worshipped for a long time in ancient times."

"I see. Counselor, you are talking about the statue that was transformed into a monster during the invasion of the Grotesian aliens during the MAT team period, right?"

At this time, Taro, through Higashi Kotaro's mouth, told him one of the files in the Earth Defense Force that he had seen.

"Yes, after I discovered the wonders of the statues, I did some special research. Unfortunately, there are so few statues that can produce spirituality or charm."

Gu Chen nodded, and couldn't help but recall that he had spent a lot of time looking for the spiritual statue.

"So gods like Buddha also really exist?"

Hearing this, Nanyuan Tadao asked curiously.

"Who can tell? But I think even if it exists, it is not the same as the Buddha we know." Gu Chen shrugged, and then did not intend to continue to delve into this topic. He said, "Okay, notify the headquarters to clean up the battlefield, and then tell the nearby villagers to build a Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva temple here."

"By the way, we can also publicize this matter more after we go back. At the very least, we should ensure that the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva statue that Tiga gave us receives enough incense and offerings."

"But then again, Advisor, we in the ZAT team are scientific. If we do this, will it be..."

Kitajima Tetsuya had a different opinion on Gu Chen's proposal.

"In this world, there will always be things that science cannot explain, and who can guarantee that so-called superstition is not another form of science?"

"Okay, Counselor, I understand."

Kitajima Tetsuya thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he stopped insisting.

Afterwards, as the logistics personnel arrived at the battle scene, the villagers who had been evacuated to a safe distance were able to return.

Then, Gu Chen and others explained to them the relevant matters about the stone statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and easily won the unanimous approval of the villagers.

Because just as Gu Chen said, there has always been a legend in this village about the stone statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva suppressing evil spirits.

Therefore, Gu Chen only needed to say this simply and he immediately gained the trust of the villagers without having to say anything more.

Even the super rich man who claimed to be very famous, Shimada, announced on the spot that he would personally bear the cost of the construction of the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Temple, and that in the future, no fees would be charged for people to worship there, and the money collected from incense offerings would be used for charity to help those in need.

Gu Chen was a little surprised by Shimada's change. When he observed him again with his special vision, he found that the black aura on his body had disappeared without a trace, and even the light in his heart seemed to have changed from dark gray to light gray.

Gu Chen didn't know why such a change happened, but overall it was a good thing and worth studying.

I just don’t know whether there are many research samples like this. If the research samples are too small, nothing can be learned.

Finally, after explaining everything that needed to be explained, everyone in the ZAT team returned to the headquarters together.

Those who need to take a break from their busy schedule should do so, those who need to write reports should do so, and those who need to worry about the losses incurred during the battle should worry about it.

In short, life gradually returned to normal.

……

Kingdom of Light, Silver Crusaders Headquarters.

"Alas, I wonder how Taro is doing on Earth."

After completing another routine physical check on Zoffy and other Ultra Brothers, Mother Ultra couldn't help but think of Taro who was far away on Earth.

"Mother, as long as Tiga is here, Taro will be fine."

Hearing this, Zoffy immediately comforted her.

"I didn't even talk to Tiga when I left Earth, so I was a little worried."

Mother of Ultra nodded, but the worry in her heart did not dissipate.

It is said that a mother worries about her child even when he is far away, not to mention that there are things like monster disasters and alien invasions happening on Earth.

Although Taro is a rookie who is already a capable warrior, as a mother, I still have to worry about him.

"In fact, it is precisely because of the presence of Tiga on Earth that I am more worried about Taro."

At this time, Ultra Father Tizofi also came to the ward after dealing with some urgent matters. After hearing what Ultra Mother said, he continued.

"Father, why is this?"

Ultraman couldn't help but wonder when he heard this.
