death paradise

() Zhijing's sudden turning back startled both Ye Xuan and Shui Xiaolin, and Shui Xiaolin glared at Zhijing even more angrily.

"Just now we were talking about ghosts. I don't know what will happen tonight." DU Chen continued to speak half-truths. As for believing it or not, it's beyond DU Chen's control.

"So that's the case, the benefactor has to worry about it."

After Zhijing finished speaking, she turned her head and continued to lead the way without speaking.

The Zhaitang was not far away, and after a few minutes of walking, we arrived at the Zhaitang.The inside was already full of people, Ling Kexin and Shen Juan were all excited when they saw Du Chen and Ye Xuan came back, they felt as if they had lost their backbone when Du Chen was not there.

But it was Shui Xiaolin who made them most curious, and they all asked where Shui Xiaolin came from.

After Ye Xuan told Shui Xiaolin's origin, everyone was amazed.

Of course, the matter of meeting the old Taoist priest on the road was just a brief introduction, and he just said that the old Taoist priest wanted to cheat food and drink, but was rejected by Du Chen, which was also what Du Chen repeatedly told Ye Xuan on the way back.

"Boss, when will you take this bite, little loli won't let it go." Bloomberg ate the steamed buns in one mouthful, drank the porridge in one gulp, and ran over to tease Shui Xiaolin.

Shen Juan and Ling Kexin liked Shui Xiaolin very much when they saw it, and kept letting Shui Xiaolin play with water magic.

Surrounded by a large circle of people suddenly, Shui Xiaolin looked at DU Chen for help, only to find that DU Chen had already walked towards the dining table, his small fists clenched tightly, and his small mouth moaned and scorned. stop.

"Coach He, you look pretty good, you've recovered so much in just one day."

Du Chen went to sit next to He Liancheng and found that He Liancheng's injuries had healed a lot.

Although there is not much dinner, He Liancheng always eats slowly, so he breaks the steamed buns and eats them bit by bit: "This is also thanks to Ye Xuan who helped me heal last night. In the afternoon, Zijue made some herbs and took them orally. External application. Not to mention, my body will feel better after a while, I really don’t know that the herb in the Yin world is so powerful.”

"Where's Su Luo?" DU Chen remembered Hei Zhichang's serious injury last night.

"The situation is not very good. Zijue has already given her medicine. I don't know if I can survive tonight." He Liancheng sighed, leaned into Du Chen's ear and whispered, "The little magician The girl is too ruthless, the dagger was smeared with the thief's poison. Not enough, I admire this woman. She was seriously injured and poisoned, and she could kill a thief. And when the muscular man buried the bald man last night, he found His shoulder was actually injured a long time ago, and it was pierced by the Mitsubishi army. It seems that the woman did it too, but fortunately, otherwise I might have been killed by that bald man last night."

Thinking of the arm strength of the berserk bald man, He Liancheng was still a little startled.

"If it wasn't for their infighting, a direct conflict would be more dangerous than good for us." Du Chen was also a little bit sad. In the doomsday world of intrigues, some things might just be like this.

DU dust has never seen the strength of the thieves.

The fortuneteller is a bit pretentious, and the real combat power may not be too high, but it is not too bad either.

The little loli of the magician is cruel, can pretend to be innocent, and has a deep scheming heart, and her fireball skills are also very good. Ordinary people are likely to die immediately when they encounter it.

The silent crossbowman, from the fact that he was able to quickly shoot two crossbow arrows to collide with his own bullet and Shen Juan's feather arrow, he could know that this person's strength would not be weak.It was just to protect the little Lolita from being injured, and she was used as a shield by the little Lolita, and died in vain by her own sword.

The berserker bald man, although Du Chen only had a short fight with him, but after being stabbed by Su Luo's Mitsubishi Army, he still had such a strong arm, and with the help of Shen Juan, He Liancheng was beaten so badly, Strength is no small matter.

The last Hei Zhichang Su Luo, who can be stabbed in the abdomen by a poisoned dagger, can kill a thief, stab a berserker bald man, and even quickly escape to his own yard, this kind of strength is probably the only one in the team. The strongest existence.

If these six people did not fight internally at the beginning, but confronted Du Chen directly, even Du Chen would not be sure, let alone Ling Kexin, Shen Juan, Ye Xuan and the others.

"By the way, what about the host?"

Du Chen glanced around for a week. In addition to the people from Du Chen's side, there were also a few students from Xue Xue's side in the dining hall, eating dinner at the dining table in the corner.Several people were trembling, they didn't fall asleep at all last night, and they also knew that the bald man had been killed.Seeing Du Chen and his group now, he was naturally trembling with fright.

Fortunately, Zhijing was still there, so they dared to come over for dinner.

As for Xue Xue, his arm had been cut off, and with Shi Tao's death last night, he had completely collapsed. He was hiding in the room alone, not eating or drinking, and his spirit was already a little distracted.

"The host asked me to call you here, I think you should be here soon." Zhijing was also a little strange.

He Liancheng said hastily: "Zijue came here just now and said that the presiding officer is not feeling well and can't come to the Zhaitang anymore. He said he asked you to go to the husband's room after you come back."

"That's fine, I'll go there after I finish my late fast."

Du Chen was not eating well, mainly because he was thinking about what to say when he saw the host.However, there are not many fasting meals in the evening, no matter how slow DU Chen eats, it is only a few mouthfuls.

The husband's room was a little farther away. Under the leadership of Zhijing, Du Chen walked to the host's room alone.

Originally, He Liancheng and the others wanted to come, especially Ye Xuan, who was worried that DU Chen would have something to do, but DU Chen refused.

Squeak!

"Senior host, the benefactor DU Chen is here."

Standing outside her husband's room, Zhijing pushed open the door, stood at the door and said to the inside.

"Zijue, hurry up and invite Master Du to come in...cough cough..." Without finishing the sentence, an old voice coughed from inside.

Zijue walked to the door quickly, and made a salute to DU Chen: "Benefactor, please come in with me."

Looking at the serious Zijue, Du Chen had the urge to reach out and touch his body, to see if he could penetrate directly.However, this thought was just a flash, and DU Chen followed Zijue into the husband's room.

The husband's room is not big, and you can see the whole thing at a glance, but it is already evening and the lights are not lit, so the inside is a little dark.

On a futon on the right, an old monk is sitting.When he saw DU Chen coming in, he quickly stopped coughing, and shouted a Buddha's name to DU Chen: "Amitabha, Master Du, please sit down."

Glancing at the futon beside him, Du Chen sat down as he said.

But as soon as he came in, Du Chen smelled the strong smell of medicine in the room, which was very strong and lingered for a long time.

"I made the benefactor laugh. The old monk's name is Zhikong, and he is the host of this temple. He was ill many years ago, and he has to drink these herbs every day, so he can live to this day." The host with a wrinkled face wanted to show a difficult smile, but His face was so stiff that it was hard to laugh.

"I don't know why the host asked me to come here?" Du Chen went straight to the point.

"Zijue, you and your Uncle Zhijing go out first. I have something to say to Donor Du alone." Zhikong glanced at Zijue and ordered, "By the way, go and see the injured female benefactor. Let's see if the medicine I re-prepared works."

"Yes, host."

Zijue saluted respectfully, then retreated with Zhijing and closed the door.As the door closed, the light in the room became even dimmer. The two of them didn't speak for a while, and the room seemed extraordinarily quiet.

"Benefactor Du, I see that you are very worried, but what do you want to ask me?" Host Zhikong suddenly said.

Du Chen was not surprised, he had a lot of thoughts in his heart, and Zhikong was not surprised when he saw it: "I do have some concerns, but I don't know if the host is willing to help me solve some puzzles?"

"Please tell me, benefactor." In the darkness, Zhikong abbot slowly raised his right hand, unscrewed a torch, and lit a candle beside him, "I hope the benefactor will not be blamed, I don't see too much light, even during the daytime." Go out, only light one or two candles in the room."

With the light of the candle light, a ferocious face appeared in front of DU dust.

Host Zhikong's face was burned extensively, one eye was blinded, and his entire face looked terribly frightening.And his eyebrows and beard have already turned white, coupled with his shriveled skin, he is almost like a mummy, which is very scary.

Although DU dust was frightened when he looked at it suddenly, he had seen all the horrible monsters before, so he didn't have any expression.

"The benefactor is very determined." Looking at DU Chen who was unmoved, Zhikong gave a supportive praise, "I don't know what the benefactor wants to ask?"

Du Chen had a lot of doubts in his heart, but he couldn't say some things, so he could only ask some questions that he had just thought about: "Why didn't you let the monks catch ghosts, so that your younger brother led the monks to rebuild a Great Mercy Temple?" .”

After Du Chen asked this sentence, Zhikong didn't speak for a long time, and then sighed for a long time: "I'm sorry I can't tell you about this."

The first question was rejected, and Du Chen was not discouraged: "I heard people outside that there was a fire in the Mercy Temple nine years ago, and then there were no monks in or out for a month. Besides, why did the nearby lotus pond disappear?"

This is Du Chen's question. No matter how fierce the fire is, it is impossible for a lotus pond to disappear for nothing.Also, since the temple was burned, it was very strange why no monks came in and out for a month.

"Why did the benefactor suddenly ask about this?" Zhikong asked.

"In the morning, Zijue brought a big lotus leaf to help me shade the sun, but I have never seen a lotus leaf nearby, so I was very curious. Because I have seen the map of Changsitai, the nearest lake is an hour away, and the far It lasted two hours. Then I found out about it after I asked the nearby residents." Du Chen's words were also true.

"I don't remember the details of the fire nine years ago." Host Zhikong sighed, "But Zijue's lotus leaves should have been picked from Shili Lake. Love going there."

Of course Du Chen wouldn't believe that Zhikong said he didn't remember what happened nine years ago, but if the other party didn't tell him, it would be useless to ask him again, so he simply changed the question: "Master, I still have one thing I don't know. When did Zijue and Ziwu come together?" Came to the temple?"

"One month after the fire nine years ago, I found Zijue, who was still a baby, in the backyard. As for Ziwu, Zijue picked it up at Ten Mile Lake four years ago... cough, cough, cough..."

Host Zhikong didn't speak, and continued to cough again, and stopped after a while: "I'm feeling unwell, I'm afraid I can't answer the benefactor's doubts anymore, benefactor please come back first."

"Then I'll retire first."

Looking at Zhikong with a tired look, DU Chen stood up and got ready.DU dust just has doubts about other things, it doesn't matter if he can't ask.As long as you know which lake it is, after all, the third token is probably there.

Just when Du Chen was about to go out, Zhikong said: "Benefactor, I have a question for you."

"Excuse me, host." DU dust stopped.

"If a person does something he shouldn't do because of some obsession, and is used by others." In the dark room, Zhikong's voice was slightly hoarse, "When you meet him, what will you do? "
