I was a charlatan in India

Chapter 38 Glass Cannon

"...Please grant me a blessing; could you revive this monk?"

The most urgent task is to take immediate remedial action.

It's almost certain that the gaze just now belonged to the person behind the monk, or even another deity.

And most likely it's not someone like me who's a fraud.

At least in terms of the use of strength, they are far more skilled than I am.

At least the other person has found him, while he doesn't know how to lock onto them.

If you don't want to antagonize the other party, you should take the initiative to make amends and make your stance clear.

The quote came back quickly; I needed 17 square meters…

No, eighteen, nineteen...

Deal done! Save the day!

It seems this monk isn't quite dead yet!

Moreover, as life fades, the cost of saving someone naturally increases.

If we act now, it's about saving lives, but who knows if it will turn into resurrection in a little while? Who knows if it will be ridiculously expensive!

The divine power worked obediently, as if it were an extension of his own arm, and began to repair Mahata's body.

At the same time, Shenhe's understanding of the human body is also gradually improving.

However, it is quite vague and even difficult to summarize in words.

Shenhe had a vague feeling that if he had a physical body now, he could judge a lot of things by touching a person's heart area, but he didn't know exactly what that included.

soon.

Mahata's gradually unfocused gaze suddenly narrowed.

He sprang to his feet, still shaken, and looked down at his chest.

I remember just now it was...

His chest was completely intact.

But what just happened was definitely not a hallucination, because his monk's robe had been completely burned away, and now he was naked...

"Bang."

Almost simultaneously, a sari fell beside him.

...This is clearly inappropriate.

Then, the sari disappeared again, replaced by an indigo blue coarse cloth gown.

The name Mahata seemed somewhat familiar.

Judging from the style, it is the common attire of Vaishya merchants in the western Rajasthan region.

He remained silent for a moment, then picked up the long robe and put it on.

Then, Mahata looked up at the sky and quickly found Shenhe's gaze, and solemnly bowed.

"I apologize for my rudeness, I will take my leave now."

"Thank you so much for sparing my life."

He became completely obedient.

Curiosity is one thing, but life is still precious.

Moreover, the Buddha and Bodhisattva he believed in did not intervene.

There are only two possibilities: either you are indeed in the wrong, or you can't win the fight.

...Most likely, they were in the wrong, after all, the other party had already yielded several times, yet they still didn't know what was good for them and kept trying to get closer.

Thinking of this, Mahata added, "Tomorrow, I will prepare a small gift to express my apologies."

Actually, you can't really blame Mahadra for this.

Mainly in India, powerful believers are all riddle tellers, and gods and Buddhas also like to engage in witty verses.

Simply put, it means "don't play with idiots".

Therefore, setting up riddles upon meeting and having qualified individuals follow the clues was the normal approach at the time.

Such phenomena are usually seen as a test from gods or Buddhas.

Who would have thought there was a modern deity like Shenhe, who was both cowardly and powerful?

Given that the two sides did have some past conflicts, misunderstandings were inevitable.

If it weren't for seeing him protect the believers and the courtyard, and being wary of the unknown forces behind him, Shenhe might not have saved him.

After all, the effort expended during arduous cultivation was real.

I just hope that his apology can really make up for something.

What kind of meager gift would a high-ranking monk from the capital be referring to? Shenhe was somewhat curious.

Could it be some useless scripture or something?

I hope I don't lose money.

...Hopefully, I won't lose too much.

With a touch of heartache, Shenhe prayed to someone unknown.

Immediately afterwards, he used the incense ash to tidy up the courtyard for the believer before kicking him back home.

The believer got up in confusion, looking around suspiciously.

There were neither vertical eyes nor monks.

If it weren't for the noisy discussions outside the courtyard, he would have almost thought he was hallucinating.

No, this discussion might also be an illusion.

It's all fake!

Haha, don't try to fool me!

Shenhe felt that perhaps he needed to re-evaluate his own power.

Even a great monk like Mahadra, who had mobilized the power of his ascetic practices, could not withstand a single blow from himself.

The monks who could represent the capital here were undoubtedly the pinnacle of secular faith.

In other words, as long as one has energy, one is completely superior to those humans.

Those guys...

Pshaw, I am human.

Shenhe quickly corrected his thinking.

This thought made him somewhat uneasy.

I don't know when it started, but I've actually started to have some divine thoughts.

Views on humanity and attitudes toward believers are clearly changing subtly.

...We can't go on like this. Once we've resolved the problems with Mina and Agni, we need to quickly gather the strength for arduous training and return to the real world.

Shenhe seems to have not forgotten its original aspirations.

Of course, one's own assessment of one's own strength also needs to be considered.

For example, the answer given by the space just now is that "killing Maha Tathagata once" requires eighty square meters of energy.

According to this statement, Mahata should have had a backup plan.

Moreover, there is a considerable possibility that everyone is a glass cannon.

Shenhe had not forgotten the time he was driven away; it was only Mahata's disciple who intervened.

In addition, the fact that Mahadalus was distracted by protecting his followers and the temple is also a factor that cannot be ignored.

The impact of this clash is not limited to Shenhe and Mahata; it has undoubtedly spread throughout the entire city.

Especially those Brahmin families who were responsible for the faith.

The vertical eye that Shenhe materialized is extremely famous locally.

Regardless of whether the deity they worship is Shiva or not, it doesn't prevent them from being recognized at a glance.

This is the Destructive Eye of the Great Heaven.

Moreover, Shiva is one of the three principal deities, holding a unique position.

In Brahmanism, he is undoubtedly the god of gods.

Even if the religious order worships other gods, it does not prevent them from respecting or even worshipping the Great God at the same time.

Many people were initially skeptical of the claims about the sacred fetus, but after this miraculous appearance, public opinion has become overwhelmingly in favor of it.

Most people firmly believe that there is indeed a divine plan, and perhaps it is truly meant to guide people to Buddhism and connect them with the true Dharma.

Aside from genuine Shiva devotees.

For them, this strike was simply not enough.

Who is Da Tian? He is one of the Three Gods, who holds the power of destruction and rebirth!

Let alone his vertical pupils, even a single thought of his should cause stars to fall and the world to perish.

And since even Varanasi wasn't destroyed, it's clear that it wasn't our Great Heaven who intervened.

It's too small.

Its power has decreased.

Sigh, these days, anyone dares to try and ride on Da Tian's fame. I feel sorry for them.

Oh right, and those guys who believe in Indra, they don't believe either.

The Heavenly Emperor's beatings are reserved for my Heavenly Emperor!

Who do you think you are to deserve being beaten like him?!

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

But no matter what, most people still believe it.

Riding this wave, the production of ascetic power has also increased significantly.

It seems that many believers were awestruck by this divine power and joined the ranks of those practicing asceticism.

...In this way, the problem of those few believers lost earlier is not so big.

And it should be possible to recover it later.

I don't know if I need to fulfill the wishes of believers who have lost contact with me again.

Forget it, let's be on the safe side. Let Arti run the errand later, dressed in incense ash.

Speaking of Arti...

The child seems to be collecting mold; I wonder if what happened just now scared her.

Go check it out.

The situation in Shenhe is very good, but for the companies that plan to take action around the "holy fetus" issue, it's a completely different story.

Dana, in particular, is quite distressed now.

Originally, they planned to mobilize some workers to prepare goods on the trade route, but after the porridge distribution at Shenhe, the merchants seemed to have other options.

Many lazy workers have started to slack off or demand higher wages.

What's even more outrageous is that they even demanded a break!

Even the existing industries are experiencing a shortage of staff!

The manifestation of this enormous vertical pupil today made Dana sense an immense problem.

Regardless of how this miracle was accomplished, industries related to Shiva will be highly sensitive for a long time to come!

Sure enough, a few minutes later, a servant rushed over.

"Sir, there are some matters that require your decision!"
