Genshin Impact: Without the Eye of God, the Original Man Witnesses the Original
Chapter 329: Yaksha Statue, Bronze Sparrow Incense
there,
"What's going on between Jiang Yi and that guy?" Paimeng finished his grilled fish and watched the conversation between Jiang Yi and the man in brown.
"Is that an immortal?" Ying guessed.
"I remember now!" Chongyun refused the steaming hot grilled tiger fish and ate a popsicle to clear his mind. "The statue in the temple is a Yaksha statue. This Yaksha was called 'Bronze Sparrow' in the records of our ancestors."
"This temple was built to commemorate his sacrifice."
Paimon was puzzled: "Yaksha? Just like Xiao. If it's a memorial, then why... no one pays attention to it. This temple can be considered collapsed!"
"The heroes of the past have been forgotten, and the temple has fallen into disrepair and no one has repaired it. It is the fault of us, the people of Liyue." Xingqiu spoke, looking at the bird's nest on the temple.
"Eh? It's that liar." Paimeng saw Wang Ping'an, who was wearing a mask around his waist, had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and had an ordinary appearance, walking towards him.
"Everyone, I have decided to turn over a new leaf." Wang Ping'an said to them with a wry smile.
"With the help of Master Jiang Yi and the Qianyan Army, I returned all the things I cheated and apologized to the victims."
"After seeing this Yaksha Temple, I also know what to do." He bowed and said, "Thank you all and Master Jiang Yi for your enlightenment."
"Hmm?" Paimon was puzzled. Did they do anything?
Wang Pingan expressed his thoughts: "I originally wanted to destroy all the information I collected in order to pretend to be an immortal, but seeing these unknown Yakshas and dilapidated temples, I sincerely hope that more people can know the stories of those Yakshas and immortals."
"The hero I admired should not have fallen to such a state. I will compile the information and the methods I used to cheat into a book and distribute it to others."
“I will also write a book specifically about Dharma Protector Yakshas and promote the many Dharma Protector Yakshas. In this way, the folklore knowledge inherited from my grandfather can be used in a righteous way.”
"My grandfather will be pleased too."
Ying clapped subconsciously: "Sounds good!"
Paimon was a little skeptical whether this person was sincere.
"It is the greatest virtue to admit one's mistakes and correct them." Chongyun nodded.
"It is easy to eliminate evil, but difficult to change evil into good. Teaching evil people to do good is a rare chivalrous way." Xingqiu smiled.
……
"Master Liuyun!" The brown-clothed man who asked the name of Jiang Yi's master was sighing, and suddenly he felt something and raised his head.
A young immortal with golden eyes landed in front of him.
"The Great Sage Who Conquers Demons?" He looked at Xiao. The dark karma inside his body was like an abyss, which made him feel uneasy.
"Compared to you who have been enduring the pain of karma for thousands of years, my death is really just a way of living a miserable life!" He compared himself with Xiao and suddenly felt ashamed and covered his face with his sleeves.
"Tongque, I haven't seen you for many years, and you still have the same personality." Xiao said.
"Yaksha obeys the contract, and dying for the contract is not called stealing life."
"Your thoughts and will are too weak!"
The man in brown, also known as Tongque, was moved and gave a sad and bitter smile when he heard Xiao addressing and scolding him.
"Great Sage, your personality remains the same."
He calmed down and found that the grilled tiger fish in his hand had been eaten up, leaving only the bamboo skewer.
"Today is my death anniversary. I can eat grilled Chigo fish, see you, and this little friend. It is unprecedentedly lively for those mortals."
"Are you ready to leave?" Xiao's tone was calm. "Let all the power that resides in the statue come out, bathe in the sun, feel the strong wind, transform into a solid human form, and taste human food."
"The effect of the Floating World Shadow Spell can only sustain you for one day."
Tongque sighed, "Rest in peace, it seems that there is nothing wrong. This is also my plan for today, but after hearing what this young friend said, I want to see the mountains and rivers again, and hope to eat a skewer of authentic grilled Chihu fish from ancient times one day."
"Going into the sea in the stormy waves to find Chihu, returning to the mountains in the snowy wind to slay demons and evil spirits."
Xiao was silent for a while before he spoke: "Since you have the determination and will to survive, then stay a few more days."
Tongque looked at Jiang Yi and said, "Thank you for your help, my friend."
Jiang Yi nodded.
Before the time travel, there was a saying that when a person dies, he becomes a ghost; when a ghost dies, he becomes a 魙; when a 魙 dies, he becomes a 希; and when a 希 dies, he becomes a 夷.
Step by step it loses its sound, its shape, and becomes undetectable.
Tongque had died long ago, and only a soul remained on the statue. At this moment, the soul walked out of the statue, and under the effect of the "Floating World Form Leaving Technique", it became a physical entity and looked at the world.
The soul's essence is constantly dissipating, and soon it will enter the next form, losing its shape and voice, and will no longer be able to communicate with people.
This form is called spirit in the fairy collection of Teyvat.
A soul without wisdom is equal to death.
Moreover, most of them need to be placed on objects.
Just like objects, under the influence of powerful forces and the sedimentation of a long period of time, give birth to spirituality, wisdom, and form a soul.
Now, the death of a living being is the opposite process: the soul dissipates, loses sanity, loses spirituality, and finally shatters along with the objects stored in it.
But if the object can remain intact, the existence of the spirit can be extended indefinitely.
In the mountains of Liyue, on the tall statues of Yakshas wearing armor and holding spears, there is this kind of spirit, which can respond to immortal arts and issue decrees. It is called "Dipo Yaksha".
Before the soul becomes a spirit, in order to preserve the soul and prolong its existence, it requires underground veins and incense.
The leylines of Teyvat preserve everything, memories, souls, and even a world of the dead outside the border between life and death.
Incense is a prayer offered by people to their ancestors and gods. Like faith, it can serve as a source of power in Teyvat.
However, compared with the faith offered by believers with their pious hearts, the power of incense seems to be slightly weaker.
After all, anyone can burn incense.
As for the attitude... facing the existence in the temple, it is probably "worship when there is something, worship when there is nothing".
Tongque looked at Xiao and bowed.
He walked back to his statue and looked at the divine bird wearing a string of jewels, surrounded by a divine ring, and standing on a ball.
"My humble abode is humble and I'm sorry to have embarrassed you all." Tongque looked around at everyone and after he finished speaking, he stepped into the statue and slowly disappeared.
"Hello, see...it's a ghost!" Paimon's teeth were chattering.
"It's not a ghost, but an immortal soul!" Chongyun said silently. Ordinary ghosts only have yin energy, and cannot withstand the yang energy of his pure yang body. Only immortal souls that have practiced and have yang power in their bodies will not be afraid.
"Yaksha, Bronze Sparrow!" Xingqiu and Ying understood each other's identities.
Wang Ping'an was even more excited.
Xiao was watching over there, and he didn't let any mortal see his form.
"Everyone, would you like to light a stick of incense?" Jiang Yi looked at everyone with a smile, holding the best incense in his hand.
"Three for each of you, to pay tribute to this senior Tongque."
Incense is most effective only before the other person's soul dissipates.
Otherwise, the only effect left is the soul-enriching effect.
Jiang Yi took the lead in burning incense.
Hold the incense in front of your chest with both hands, look at the incense, and pray for Tongque.
There is a kind of plaque in the world called the longevity plaque, which is a tablet used by mortals to pray for blessings and longevity for their living benefactors.
Now, he prayed for Tongque, which was similar in nature.
"May the spirit of the hero live on in the green mountains."
Ying, Paimeng, Chongyun, Xingqiu, and Wang Ping'an followed suit and prayed.
Wisps of incense gathered towards the statue, locking the bronze sparrow and activating the "Floating World Retaining Form Technique", and the soul and essence on the body continued to radiate.
If you want to exist for a long time, these incenses are certainly not enough.
Therefore, we need to repair the temple and find people to worship every day.
