Chapter 399 Evil Spirits
"Drink up! Drink up!"
With his little hands outstretched and retracted, his tender fists waved in the air, making young Raj seem out of place among the procession of monks.
However, judging from his serious expression and the sweat he was drenched in the air, he had been practicing diligently.
Several days have passed since Isaac and his brother left, and in these days, Raj has not slacked off at all, chanting scriptures, meditating, practicing martial arts, and engaging in meditation without missing a single one.
He seemed to truly believe himself to be a monk in this temple...
But... given some time, they should be back by now, right?
Another day passed, and after a busy day, Raj squatted outside the temple. Snow was falling, but Raj didn't feel much cold.
After squatting for a while, just as he was about to return to the temple, he suddenly saw several figures in the distance.
That is......
"Brother Isaac!!"
Raj shouted with delight, because Isaac really did bring people back!
Isaac's eyes looked a little tired, but when he saw Raj, his face lit up and he quickly walked over.
"Raji".
The two embraced tightly. Having not seen each other for a long time, they exchanged a few pleasantries, but the conversation eventually returned to the main topic.
"Is this the person my brother Isaac brought back?"
There weren't many people around Isaac, and Azshara wasn't among them, so it seemed he hadn't come back with them.
Those who came with Isaac were not only few in number, but their situation was also somewhat...
"Cough cough!"
One of the elderly men, who had lost an arm, coughed twice. Another man, seeing this, tried to help him up, but found that his own legs were too weak to assist.
That's right. The group of people Isaac brought back were mostly the elderly, weak, sick, or disabled. They were either seriously ill or missing limbs. Unlike Isaac, almost none of these patients were normal.
That makes sense, after all, they have long worshipped the Frostwolf God, and who in their right mind would believe what Isaac and his people say?
Only the elderly, the weak, the sick, and the disabled, who have nowhere else to turn, would follow Isaac to this unfamiliar place with the mentality of making a last-ditch effort.
Even so, upon seeing this magnificent temple, these patients inevitably felt some fear.
Fortunately, things did not turn out the way they had imagined. Once they entered the temple, the monks quickly began to treat them.
Under the guidance of the monks, these patients did almost everything that Isaac and his companions had done, including the familiar chanting and meditation.
As their bodies began to change, everyone was overjoyed. They never imagined that the strange illness that even the gods couldn't cure could be cured here.
Could it be that Buddha was also a deity?
As if they had thought of something, everyone suddenly felt a greater sense of awe and became more serious when performing those actions.
In the following period, people were continuously brought into the temple, and they were all shocked by the miracle they witnessed.
As a result, more and more people sought medical treatment, and more and more people who were not monks still knelt and worshipped Lin Tianzao's statue indoors.
The abbot watched all this with a smile on his face. As Lin Tian's subordinate, he was naturally happy to see this scene.
This plan was also devised by Lin Tian. The moment he saw those people contracting the strange disease, Lin Tian came up with the idea of collecting faith.
Research has revealed that this strange illness is not actually a disease, but rather a kind of evil spirit. This evil spirit attaches itself to the patients like a virus, constantly consuming their vitality like a parasite.
And coincidentally, Buddhism is the best at warding off evil spirits, so Lin Tian came up with this idea.
However, chanting and meditation were not the dominant forces in this healing process.
This is not to say that these things are useless. Unlike those monks who have a deep understanding of Buddhism, these people are just beginning to learn Buddhism. At present, they can only suppress or slow down the growth of evil spirits.
The truly crucial element was the golden bell that Lin Tian placed in the inner courtyard.
This golden bell was a magical artifact that Lin Tian obtained a long time ago. Its original purpose was to open the illusionary realm of Guanyin Temple.
After obtaining what he wanted from there, Lin Tian put it aside.
It wasn't until recently that Lin Tian discovered that this well also had many special effects.
One of them is to drive away evil spirits.
With just a small amount of spiritual energy, the Golden Bell can release a field buff, which greatly reduces the power of all evil spirits within its range, making it virtually impossible for demons to enter.
With this golden bell to ward off evil spirits, and combined with basic Buddhist teachings, the evil spirits within the group will not recur.
Although it was somewhat superstitious, the people of this land bought into it. At this moment, all the cured patients imagined the Buddha mentioned by the monks as a god with infinite power.
As this continued, Lin Tian's followers grew in number, and progress on the mission gradually began to emerge.
But things are never smooth sailing; on the road to entrepreneurship, you will always encounter some difficulties and obstacles.
Just like now.
"Ow~"
A rough growl sounded, and as their gazes gradually met, a snow wolf appeared on the snow. It sniffed the snow with its nose, then turned its head and howled a few times.
"Did you find it?"
A questioning voice sounded from behind, and a warrior wearing a wolf skin on his head and leather armor slowly walked out.
Behind him were several other people dressed similarly, each with a snow wolf beside them, which seemed to be their battle pets.
The warrior at the front knelt down in front of the snow wolf that was howling softly. He gently stroked the snow wolf's head, then took a piece of meat from his waist and put it into the snow wolf's mouth.
Through a few special exchanges, the snow wolf warrior quickly learned the information from his battle pet.
They hadn't gone far; there were about a dozen people, and the group was moving very slowly, suggesting their fighting strength wasn't very high...
After learning all the necessary information, the snow wolf warrior slowly rose from the ground and leaped into the distance.
"It seems our friends haven't gone far?"
The Snow Wolf Warrior revealed a wicked smile.
"Let's go, let's see where those guys are trying to run off to?"
