Chapter 188: Eight Merit Water

Dr. Jones and his entourage, under the gaze and blessing of the villagers, slowly got on the back of the elephant. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The elephants here don't resemble a saddle, and the ride is much more difficult.

Dr. Jones and Rand got on the elephant, and Willie also got on the elephant slowly, but Chen Xu didn't.

"Your name is Abbe, isn't it?" Chen Xu opened his mouth and said, "Can I ride an elephant with you?" I'm not very good at riding elephants, and I'm afraid that this beast will suddenly go berserk. ”

"And the elephant's back is long enough, I don't think it's a problem for two people to ride it."

The back of the elephant is not very flat, but the length is sufficient, it is not a problem to sit two or even three people, and even squeeze it, it is okay to sit four people.

"No, elephants are gentle creatures, how can they be ......."

Oh......

As soon as Willie finished speaking, the elephant went berserk, raising two pairs of meat hooves and running wildly.

Reality was like a slap in the face, and she felt her face hot, "How is it possible." ”

Chen Xu retracted his mental will to attack the elephant and said to Abbe: "I'm sorry, I can only ride an elephant with you now. ”

Just now, through his mental will, he attacked the elephant and made the elephant suffer, so the elephant went crazy.

"Yes." Abbe skillfully climbed onto the elephant, rode on it, and enthusiastically helped Chen Xu to get up.

The villagers in the back said goodbye one after another, reciting words of blessing, hoping that Dr. Jones and his party would return victoriously.

Out of the village, the elephants enter the forest.

"Your name is Abbe, isn't it?" Chen Xu looked at this young man carefully and found that this young man named Abbe had white skin.

In fact, Abbe's skin is not white, but darker, but compared to those in the village, Abbe's skin is fair.

Abbey was excited when he heard Chen Xu talking to him, "My name is Abbey, is what you just said true?" ”

"Of course it's true." Chen Xu patted Abbe on the shoulder, "For me, it is not a burden at all to bear the food, drink and entertainment of the people of a village for a hundred years. ”

"You don't know who I am."

"The owner of Deutsche Bank is me."

Chen Xu didn't say that he ruled Germany, and he didn't understand what he said called Abbe, it was better to say that he was the owner of Deutsche Bank, "Do you know Deutsche Bank?" It is the one who issues banknotes, so to speak, the mark is produced by me, and I have as much wealth as there are marks in the world. ”

In fact, he exaggerated, the note-issuing bank is very profitable, but it is not that there is as much as the mark, how much wealth he has, in more than ten years, the mark has issued hundreds of billions of marks, and the money he has made from it is about tens of billions of marks.

Don't underestimate these hundreds of billions, as the mainstream currency of this era, the mark is very valuable, and with the strength of Germany, the value of the mark is getting higher and higher.

When Chen Xu first arrived in Germany, tens of thousands of marks could not even buy a glass of ale, but now, tens of thousands of marks are enough to buy an ale distillery.

The rate at which Mark's purchasing power appreciates is quite terrifying.

And this appreciation continued to rise as the German state grew stronger and expanded commercially.

After all, the printing of the mark requires gold as a margin, and it cannot be issued indefinitely, so the value does not depreciate but rises.

"What is Mark?" Abbe asked puzzled, "Can I eat it?" ”

Is Mark OK to eat? Chen Xu was speechless at this question.

"The mark is a currency, he can buy everything, such as grain, fruits, etc., as long as you have the mark, you can buy everything."

"Forget it." Chen Xu suddenly realized that he was really speechless to discuss the issue of money with a person who had never been out of the village and didn't even know what money was.

"You just need to know, I can guarantee that you don't have to do anything to live a good life for a hundred years, but in the future, how many babies will you give birth."

"Even if you open up your next life, I won't have any pressure."

He calculated, the total number of villagers in this village is only a hundred people at most, even if they can give birth again, even if they increase their population by a hundred times in a hundred years, Chen Xu will not have any pressure.

"No, I'm asking about gold and jewelry." Abbe smiled awkwardly, "Do you really allow us to pick and choose gold and jewelry at will?" Like the gold jewels in the palace? ”

The farthest place he walked in his life was the Penggao Palace, and he had a deep impression of the magnificence of the Penggao Palace, and he could not forget it for almost a lifetime.

"Of course." Chen Xu nodded affirmatively, "I don't know what's inside the Penggao Palace, but if you want, I can give you the Penggao Palace, after we defeat the cult." ”

A small Penggao Palace, he didn't even look at it.

If it was the palace of a big country, he would probably look at it, but the palace of a small country, he was not even interested in taking a look, even if it was the wealth accumulated by a palace for hundreds of years, it was powerless in front of his money printing machine.

"By the way, you haven't told me yet, what do you have in your hands." Chen Xu suddenly asked, "You can't let me pay the price and send me away with something!" ”

"We only have what our ancestors have left?" Abbe's face flushed, he was patronizing and asking for something just now, and he completely forgot what he should give, but he saw that Chen Xu was brightly dressed and not ragged like them, and thought that Chen Xu should not look down on the little things in his home, so he sold the things left by his ancestors.

"In the village, there is a cup of holy water left by our ancestors, which Shiva gave to our ancestors to wash away the filth." Speaking of his ancestors, Abbe doesn't have much respect.

In the eyes of others, he was a sage and a thinker, but in the eyes of their descendants, he was just a name, and they did not have any benefit because they had the blood of Shangkara in their bodies, but lived in great poverty.

"Holy water?" Chen Xu carefully recalled the myths and legends of India, and wanted to find the source of the holy water, and soon found a source of the holy water.

The holy water, in the eyes of Indians, is the water of the Ganges, which is said to be the incarnation of the goddess of purification, Hengya, and the water of the Ganges is the best gift she has given to Indians.

Legend has it that if you drink the water of the Ganges, you can wash away the dirt.

"Impossible." Chen Xu shook his head.

In the era before his crossing, the Ganges water was called a dirty, and the corpses of all living things were soaked in the Henghe, resulting in the Ganges water almost as filthy as the polluted water discharged from a chemical plant.

With the filth of the Ganges water, let alone washing away the filth, it is considered good if it is not polluted.

"But if it's not the water of the Ganges, then where does the holy water come from?" Chen Xu searched his memories carefully, trying to find the source of the holy water, but there was no record of the holy water in Hindu mythology except for the water of the Ganges.

"Legend has it that as long as you wash away the holy water, you can wash away your karma." Abbe said to himself, "I heard from the elders of the clan that many Bodhisattvas have bathed in holy water. ”

"Bodhisattva? Bath? Chen Xu grabbed these two words, "You mean that the Bodhisattva is bathed in holy water?" ”

Chen Xu was almost ecstatic, "If it is a bodhisattva bathing, then this holy water should be the water of eight merits." ”

Chen Xu has been thinking about the record of holy water in Hindu mythology, but he forgot that Shiva is not only recorded in Hindu mythology, but also in Buddhism.

In Buddhist legend, Shiva is the lord of the three thousand small worlds, with eight incarnations of earth, water, fire, wind, air, moon, and sacrifice, and has the power of destruction and regeneration.

In Buddhism, there is only one kind of holy water that a bodhisattva has bathed in, and that is the water of eight merits.

Legend has it that soaking in the water of the eight merits has eight senses: clear, cold, luscious, light and soft, moisturizing, peaceful, eliminating hunger and thirst, and growing the roots.

It is also recorded in the Sutra of Amitayus: Sentient beings who have not broken their afflictions are thus cut off from their afflictions; A bodhisattva who has not attained non-retreat has attained non-retreat.

This means that sentient beings who have not cut off their afflictions, bodhisattvas who have not attained great annihilation, after soaking in the water of the eight merits, will be able to cut off their afflictions and attain great annihilation, and the state of mind will never recede.

"Is there anything else besides holy water?" Chen Xu suppressed his excitement and pretended to be indifferent.

"Nope." Abbe shook his head, "Originally, the Shiva Stone was also left by the ancestors, but it was taken away by the demons. ”

Chen Xu pondered for a moment and said, "You give me the holy water, and I promise you that after I kill the demons, the Penggao Palace will be yours, and even if I can't kill the demons, I will give you a large sum of gold and jewels." ”

He understands now, talking about food or something, this person named Abbe doesn't understand, the only thing he understands is gold and jewelry.

But it doesn't matter, he has gold and jewelry, as long as Abbe brings the holy water, he will meet Abbe's request.

"Nope." Abbe shook his head, "You have to bring the gold and the jewels with you, I want to see the gold and the jewels, otherwise I won't give you the holy water." ”

Although Abbe is not knowledgeable, he is not stupid, he does not trust Chen Xu at all, Chen Xu wants holy water, he must exchange gold and jewelry, and he has to pay money with one hand and deliver it with the other.

"Yes." Chen Xu closed his eyes, and his spiritual will instantly descended to Berlin, Germany, and manifested his image.

Immorton, who was reading documents at the presidential palace, was startled when he saw Chen Xu suddenly appear, "Why are you back?" ”

"Wait...... You are the manifestation. After Immorton used his mind to probe Chen Xu's state, he immediately understood what Chen Xu's situation was, "I really envy you." ”

After arriving in the 'gold' realm, the will of the mind is no longer scattered, but twisted into a rope, which is very condensed, and in the process of shuttling through space, the will of the mind will not be lost too much.

However, the manifestation is very dangerous, and the spiritual will of the manifest saint in the 'golden' realm is not relied upon, and once it is injured, it will lead to a decrease in the strength of the body, and the consequences are very serious.

Therefore, the general 'golden' realm does not dare to manifest at will.

There is also a method similar to the manifestation of the saint in the East, but that method is one of the ways of the original gods, called the original god out of the body.

Once out of the body, the Genshin can roam at will, but like the Apparition, this kind of wandering is dangerous.

"It's a manifestation." Chen Xu didn't hide it from Immorton, "I need a large sum of gold and jewelry, trade with people in a village, and bring a large amount of grain." ”

The jewels and gold were for the greedy Abey, and the food was for the villagers, who didn't think that after Abey stole the holy water, the villagers would not come to fight hard.

He didn't want to fight the scrawny villagers.

"Okay." Immorton agreed.

Next, Chen Xu told Immorton the location and returned to his body.

"Be careful, there are vampire bats." (To be continued.) )
