"Is something particularly bad going to happen?"
"Master, can you be more specific?"
Fahua hesitated for a long time and only said four words:
"She's the chosen one."
He seemed to have some concerns and said only this much.
Seeing that he was unwilling to elaborate, Ning Qiushui did not continue to ask, but she was thinking secretly in her heart.
"The chosen one..."
Why is Mei Wen said to be the chosen one?
Chosen by whom?
what is it used for?
While thinking, they came to the utility room.
Fahua took out the shovel he found last time.
"Donor Ning, let's go bury the bodies of the two benefactors!"
Ning Qiushui nodded.
"good."
He followed Lotus and wandered around the temple and found an abandoned and quiet place.
"Little Master, didn't you say last time that you would bury them outside the temple?"
Fahua nodded and shook his head.
"That was the original plan, but now we can't get out of the temple."
Ning Qiushui's heart moved:
"Can't get out?"
"Why?"
Fahua did not explain, as if he did not hear these words.
"...It's right here, Donor Ning. Although it's not a geomantic treasure, it can still be regarded as a place where ashes return to ashes and earth returns to earth."
With that said, he bent down and started digging a hole.
Ning Qiushui stared at the little monk, thinking that he would have to go to the gate later.
Fa Hua dug for about ten minutes and finally dug a hole. However, Ning Qiushui, who was standing next to him, felt a little uncomfortable, as if someone was watching him somewhere...
He looked around, and finally his eyes fell on a leafy tree next to the arch on the right.
Ning Qiushui saw a person hiding behind the big tree.
The other party revealed half of his face and stared directly at them.
Because it was too far away, Ning Qiushui couldn't fully see that face.
He just thought that face was strange. It looked a bit like Mei Wen, but not exactly like her.
However, Ning Qiushui was sure that there was an indescribable greed on the other person's face, and he could clearly feel it even from such a long distance.
After Ning Qiushui discovered him, the man showed a strange smile to Ning Qiushui, then withdrew his gaze, turned around and ran towards the arch.
That smile... actually gave rise to goosebumps on Ning Qiushui's body.
"Alright, donor, please help the young monk!"
Fahua simply dug a relatively shallow pit and asked Ning Qiushui to help throw the two bodies into it.
"I'm afraid no one can be buried in such a shallow pit."
Lotus:
"The night is long and there are many dreams. Let's bury them first."
Ning Qiushui threw the two bodies in and filled them with soil. After that, he expressed his gratitude to Ning Qiushui, and then left with a heavy heart.
Looking at Fahua's back, Ning Qiushui seemed to have something to say.
He returned to the dining hall. Everyone had finished their meal and left. Only Liu Chengfeng was sitting there waiting for him.
"There are many monks this time."
"There's no more meat porridge either."
From Liu Chengfeng's mouth, Ning Qiushui got a new piece of news.
It's just that the former's tone was filled with doubts.
The pattern I discovered two days ago suddenly broke today.
"It feels like it should be safer today."
“This door is quite user-friendly, and there’s even an intermission.”
Ning Qiushui looked at the bearded man speechlessly.
"It's halftime, do you think Blood Gate is for charity?"
"I had a little chat with Fahua, and his meaning was very clear. If we can't help him find the missing Mei Wen during the day, tonight will be very difficult..."
Liu Chengfeng was startled.
"Mei Wen?"
"Hmm... But this temple is only that big. Counting the young monk, there are five of us. It shouldn't be difficult to find Mei Wen."
Ning Qiushui said:
"It's hard to say. I don't know if Mei Wen can be considered a 'human' right now."
"First, even if we find her, we may not be able to subdue her."
"Second, even if she cannot pose any threat to us during the day, she can still run around the temple at will. It may not be easy to catch a moving target in such a large temple."
When Liu Chengfeng heard this, he frowned and said:
"This is indeed a big problem."
"Let's go meet the other two people first."
"After they finished eating, they had returned to their rooms."
Ning Qiushui:
"No hurry, let's go to the temple gate first."
They came to the gate of the temple.
The two doors seemed to be imprisoned by some mysterious force. No matter how hard they tried, they could not push them open at all.
"The young monk said before that he wanted to leave when he was burying the body, but today he told me that he could no longer leave the temple..."
Liu Chengfeng heard the implication of Ning Qiushui's words.
"Even the little monk can't get out?"
Ning Qiushui said "hmm".
"Judging from the situation in the past three days, the young monk is obviously an important NPC who helped us escape from the temple, but now even he doesn't know how to leave the temple. It seems that those ghosts in the temple are getting stronger!"
Liu Chengfeng said:
"But...little brother, don't you think it's strange?"
"The young monk is obviously a member of the temple and has been a monk for so many years. Logically speaking, he shouldn't be ostracized by the monks in the temple no matter what..."
"Those monks didn't let us go out to talk, so why were even the young monks implicated?"
"Is it because the little monk handed us candles at night?"
There are ghosts in the temple who want to harm them.
It’s not clear whether the young monk is a human being, but he obviously belongs to the camp of tricksters.
"Maybe...but I feel like it's not that simple."
After confirming that the door could not be pushed open, Ning Qiushui prepared to go back to their residence with Big Beard.
However, when they turned around, Ning Qiushui felt a dense layer of goose bumps on her neck!
By the attic wall at the end of the path in the distance, a strange figure revealed half of his body and was peeping at them with a very greedy look!
Of course Ning Qiushui was very familiar with this look. After all, just now, that guy peeked at him from behind the tree!
But Ning Qiushui initially thought he was looking at the corpse or the Lotus on the ground.
But now, Ning Qiushui suddenly became alert. The other party... was actually looking at him!
PS: There are two more updates, which will be posted before 12 o'clock. There are too many things to do during the National Day, so I owe you!
