Chapter 49 Asked
Yang Xiangwei quickly explained that it was Huangshan's Lord of the River, who had just woken up yesterday.
"So it's Lord River God," Village Chief Tong Na quickly led the villagers to kneel down, "Hail, Lord Mountain God, Hail, Lord God, we are rude, please forgive us, Lord Mountain God, Lord God."
At this moment, Village Chief Tong Na regretted it so much.
How could he just move the idol?
No matter what, you should at least greet the mountain god and ask for his opinion.
This is his temple. Without his permission, no other statues can enter.
Ahhhhh… He has offended Lord Ruheshen. He won’t say bad things about their Nanxi Village in front of Lord Mountain God, right?
Yang Xiangwei also breathed a sigh of relief for them. Fortunately, he was in a hurry to go out and did not take him with him. Otherwise, if Lord Luhe saw it, he would definitely be unhappy even if he didn't say anything.
It seems that he will have to send me a dream in time next time.
Yang Xiangwei said, "The River God is in charge of the River waters, and he is also temporarily in charge of the Huangshan water system. If you need water in the future, you can ask him. You can ask Wumu Village Chief for details. I have told him everything."
"Yes, Lord Mountain God!" Village Chief Wumu was very annoyed.
Their Nanxi Village was originally lagging behind Yilan Village, and after this incident, it is likely to lag behind even further.
no!
He has to work hard. Now he has fallen behind with only two villages. There will be more villages in the future. If he falls behind again, he will be too ashamed to see anyone.
After Yang Xiangwei left, Village Chief Tong Na gave some new instructions, then immediately called some people and took the wild vegetable cakes to Yilan Village.
Because I had the amulet with me, I was relatively safe along the way.
After meeting the village chief Wumu, Village Chief Tongna quickly discussed the matters of summoning the gods with him.
On the other hand, Ming Qi also heard that there was a new statue in the mountain god temple. He was in a depressed mood and went straight to the mountain god temple while no one was paying attention.
After kneeling and worshipping, and lighting three incense sticks, Ming Qi called out to the statue, "Lord Mountain God, are you there?"
Hearing his call, Yang Xiangwei "descended" directly: "What's wrong?"
"I heard from the villagers that you have a new subordinate god?" Compared with the Lord of the Rivers who just woke up, Ming Qi, who clearly has a child's face, is the real "adult" with a serious expression.
"Have you heard about it? He is the God of Huangshan Mountain, and he commands the waters of the Luhe River, so he is called 'Luhe God'."
Ming Qi: "Didn't you say that you are the only god in this world, and that you are an alien god? What's the matter with this Lord of the Rivers?"
Yang Xiangwei laughed when she heard this and said, "I created him."
Ming Qi's pupils shrank sharply: "You can create a god?!"
Can gods also create gods?
“To be precise, it was the villagers of Yilan Village who created him, and I was just the finishing touch that facilitated his birth. I can’t do anything about it. This world is so big, with monsters running rampant and famines raging. If I were the only god, I would definitely be too busy. I need subordinate gods…” Yang Xiangwei said calmly, “It just so happens that Huangshan has a spirit, and the villagers of Yilan Village are willing to believe in me, so I asked them to offer sacrifices to the River…”
Summoning a god requires a ritual, and the same is true for creating a new god.
Yang Xiangwei's divine power was limited, and she could not create a god directly, so she could only choose this "pleasing" method and create a god with the help of the indigenous people's "faith".
As long as they are willing to "believe", and with his guidance and the bestowal of incense, new gods can be born.
After hearing what he said, Ming Qi showed an expression of disbelief: "So according to you, as long as the villagers are willing to believe, anyone can become a god?"
If so, then why were there so many monsters fighting for "faith" in his previous life, and why have no monsters become gods in all the years since his death?
"Not everyone can do it. Didn't I say before that in our world, if you want to become a god, you must cultivate merits. Without merits, you can't become a god."
Ming Qi asked: "What about Lord Luhe? What merits did he have before this?"
"How could there not be any? Doesn't the water used by Yilan Village come from the Lu River? He is a god born in the Lu River, and this is his merit."
There were only two words written on Ming Qi's expression - That's it, are you kidding me?
If it were that simple, he wouldn't believe it. No one had ever done such a good deed in their previous life.
"Of course not only that. The merits that can be accumulated from that little water source are limited. If he really relies on himself, it is impossible for him to be born so quickly. It is estimated that he will have to accumulate merits for hundreds or thousands of years before he can be born with people's faith and incense." Yang Xiangwei said, "But I am here. I am a god. I can open a back door for him. I shared my incense with him, and he was born."
Ming Qi: "How long have you been in this world? How can you have so many incense and fire?"
“But I am originally a god!”
Ming Qi shut up.
Yes, He was already a god before He came to this world, and He had already accumulated a lot of worship.
He certainly lent him more than just the little of this world.
"You are so generous!" Ming Qi said sarcastically.
Yang Xiangwei said aggrievedly: "I can't do anything about it. I'm just a god. The world is so big, I can't handle it all by myself. I need other gods to help share the burden."
"Why should other gods help share the burden? Isn't it better to do it all by yourself and accumulate so much merit?"
Yang Xiangwei said in a shocked tone: "How can you think like that? This is too selfish. The world is big, there are many merits, and it can support many gods.
Moreover, as a God, I cannot possibly take care of all places. When I take care of this place, what about other places? Are we just going to watch other places suffer?
If you try to accumulate merit with this kind of mentality, it goes against your original intention. That is not doing good deeds and accumulating merit, that is utilitarianism. How can God be so utilitarian? God is supposed to be impartial, just, and aboveboard. ”
After he said this, Ming Qi seemed to understand why no one had become a god in the previous life.
Among those who practiced cultivation in their previous life, which one of them did not have a "utilitarian" mindset?
So, if you want to become a god, you must abandon your utilitarian mentality and do good deeds to accumulate merits?
“Just do good things and don’t worry about the future.” Yang Xiangwei summed it up in eight words.
"But aren't you cultivating to be a god? Isn't becoming a god your goal?"
"yes!"
"If that's the case, then where does 'don't ask about the future' come from? Aren't you contradicting yourself?"
Yang Xiangwei said: "How is this a contradiction? My goal is to become a god and accumulate merits. That is my big goal, but in the process of accumulating merits and doing good deeds, I have the mentality of 'just do good things and don't worry about the future'. Because when we do anything, before it is finished, we will never know whether it can achieve the effect we want.
If that’s the case, why force it? Anyway, I did it and I have a clear conscience. No matter what it turns out to be in the end, I will not regret it. ”
Confused! Ming Qi seemed to understand, but also seemed not to understand. He asked the last question: "What if I want to become a god? Can I become a god?"
Yang Xiangwei replied: "Why not? Life has already started anew." Otherwise, why did he think he was wasting so much time talking here?
Isn't it because you like him and want him to work for you?
