Chapter 2: The Mark of the Koi Order

The door opened.

Make an unpleasant squeaky sound.

The room was very dark and there was no light.

Only a small window on the roof casts a faint light.

Chen Deling walked into the room with his feet raised, squinting and looking around.

The house was in chaos, and many of the statues were crooked or even broken.

It turns out that the things in the Queen Mother Temple are all piled up here.

After looking around, seeing that there didn't seem to be anything to see, Chen Deling turned around and prepared to go out.

But he just turned around.

"Bang!"

The door slammed and closed automatically.

"Hey, uncle, don't make a fuss!

Chen Deling thought at first that it was the uncle who was collecting rags outside who was joking with him.

But after screaming a few times, there was no response from outside, which made Chen Deling a little anxious.

"Uncle, open the door, Uncle, I know you're outside!"

"Uncle, if you don't open the door again, I'm going to call the police!"

No matter how Chen Deling shouted, there was still no response from outside.

And at this very moment.

There seemed to be a slight noise behind him, and Chen Deling subconsciously stopped knocking on the door and slowly turned his head to look.

In the dimly lit room, all kinds of statues are like living creatures, and the faces of the statues seem to become extremely clear at this moment.

It's like...... At this moment, the room was full of people, and countless pairs of eyes were staring at him.

This feeling made Chen Deling very uncomfortable.

There was a layer of goosebumps on his body, and his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up a little.

"What's going on?"

Chen Deling was uneasy, his eyes glancing around, and finally fixed on the most complete and largest statue in the room.

The statue is placed in the middle of the room.

Although it is just a statue, it looks very real, giving people a sense of motherhood in the world, and a sense of kindness in the heart of all things.

Even...... There's also a touch of intimacy.

It is also strange to say that Chen Deling, who was originally a little uneasy, gradually calmed down after seeing the statue.

Subconsciously took a few steps forward, and he came to the statue.

"Is this the statue of the Queen Mother?"

Chen Deling looked up at the statue of the Queen Mother, and the ghost envoy slowly stretched out his hand and touched the statue.

Suddenly, a sensation like an electric shock struck me.

Before Chen Deling could react to what was going on, his eyes suddenly went dark, and then he fell to the ground and didn't wake up......

In a daze, Chen Deling seemed to have a strange dream.

In his dream, he seemed to have turned into a fish, swimming in the fairyland-like heavenly pool, free and comfortable.

And a woman dressed in a gorgeous costume with a face that could not be seen clearly was standing by Tianchi and looking at him.

Although he couldn't see the woman's face clearly, Chen Luo could clearly see the woman's kind eyes.

......

"Hey, wake up, it's the first time I've seen someone dreaming of swimming!"

I don't know how long it took, but Chen Deling felt that someone was slapping his face.

When he woke up, the first thing that caught his eye was a wrinkled face.

"Me, what's wrong?"

Chen Deling rubbed his head and sat up from the ground, only to feel a sharp pain in his arm, as if he was injured.

"Don't open the door, you won't listen!" The uncle pointed to the ground next to him with some schadenfreude: "Na, you were injured by the collapsed statue." ”

"Huh?" Chen Deling's head was a little confused at the moment.

He had no memory of what had happened when he entered the house.

But the sharp pain in his arm, as well as the fragments of statues around him, mean that what the uncle said is true.

"This statue is a koi fish in front of the Queen Mother, but unfortunately it is broken now. ”

The uncle sighed and shook his head, then walked outside with his hands behind his back, hunched over.

The koi fish in front of the statue of the Queen Mother?

Chen Deling was a little surprised, looked up at the statue of the Queen Mother, and found that there seemed to be something missing in front of her, and there were obvious fracture marks on it.

"Come out quickly, I'm going to lock the door. ”

Outside, there was the voice of the tattered uncle.

Chen Deling endured the pain in his arm, got up from the ground, and walked out of the house.

The uncle used a new lock to lock the door of the house where the statues were stacked, and then went about his business.

Chen Deling came back to his senses on the spot and prepared to leave.

As soon as I walked a few steps, I saw a rental advertisement posted on the wall.

"Hey, uncle, is this what you posted?"

"Nonsense, I didn't post it, did you post it?"

"Can I rent it?"

"Whatever you want, but rent for a year, pay the rent for one year in one lump sum. ”

After listening to the uncle's words, Chen Deling looked at the empty room next to the uncle, the space is not small, and with a little decoration, he can make a one-bedroom and a living room.

It's just that this place is relatively remote, and this house is a dilapidated house and may be demolished at any time, so Chen Deling was a little hesitant.

But he thought of Zhong Wu again, and thought of that love letter.

So he finally decided to live here for a while.

In case Zhong Wu returns here on a whim one day, wouldn't they be able to meet again, and maybe they can continue their relationship.

What's more, he's moving anyway.

"Uncle Xing, I rented it, and I'll move here tomorrow. ”

"Pay a deposit of five hundred yuan first!" the old man stretched out his hand.

Chen Deling was not ambiguous, and after paying the old man a deposit of 500 yuan, he rode back on an electric car.

"Hey, why is it still hurting, is it hurting the bones!"

On the way home, Chen Deling felt that the pain in his arm had not gone away, but seemed to be getting worse and worse.

In desperation, he pulled over to the side of the road, then rolled up his sleeves to check on his injuries.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it.

At this glance, Chen Deling was momentarily stunned.

On his right arm, I don't know when, there was an extra red mark in the shape of a token, as if someone had used a red-hot soldering iron to imprint on his arm.

"What's going on? Could it be that the old man did it?"

Chen Deling took a closer look and found that the imprint pattern on his arm looked like a fish.

To be precise, it's a token imprint engraved with a koi fish.

"Ding Dong!"

At this moment, a WeChat prompt sound came from the mobile phone.

Chen Deling picked it up and took a look and found that it was a WeChat message from his good friend Hai Dafu.

"De Ling, if you are free at night, I have something to look for you. ”

"You should be free, you can come over later. ”

Chen Deling replied to a WeChat, anyway, he is going to move tomorrow, and Dafu can just take a hand.

"Huh, why doesn't it hurt anymore? ”

Putting down the phone, Chen Deling was surprised to find that the koi Ling mark on his arm no longer hurt.

Originally, he planned to go to the hospital to have a look, but since it doesn't hurt now, he doesn't need to go.

Electric car, halfway through the power run.

Chen Deling could only push the car, walking forward while looking for a temporary charging point.

"Shhh

As he was walking, Chen Deling suddenly felt a sharp pain in his arm again.

And this time the pain was very bad, so hot that he couldn't help but stop, and the electric car was thrown to the ground by him, just covering his arm.

"Boom!"

The sudden loud noise startled Chen Deling.

He looked at it with a shocked face, only to see a billboard in front of him, and he didn't know why it had fallen down, less than ten meters away from Chen Deling.

In terms of time and distance, if he hadn't stopped just now because of a pain in his arm, maybe he would have been crushed under the billboard at this moment.

In an instant, Chen Deling's entire scalp was a little numb, and his back was instantly soaked.

He froze in place for a long time, until someone tapped him on the shoulder, and he didn't react.

"Are you alright, sir?"

This is a boy in sportswear, very handsome and tall, looking at his sweaty appearance, you know that he should have been running just now, and he came over when he heard a loud noise from here.

"I'm fine, thank you for your concern. ”

Chen Deling shook his head, and the pain in his arm didn't know when it would disappear again.

"I saw the billboard coming down, and I was desperately calling you in the back, but you didn't hear it. ”

The words of the sunshine boy made Chen Deling a little stunned.

Because he didn't hear anyone behind him call him just now, maybe he was immersed in arm pain and didn't notice.

"But seeing that you're okay, I'm relieved. ”

After the big boy finished speaking, he patted Chen Deling's shoulder with a smile, and then turned to leave.

The billboard collapsed suddenly, but fortunately it didn't hit anyone.

Fire trucks soon arrived and cleared the billboards.

Chen Deling, on the other hand, put the electric car into a temporary charging station, and then walked back to his residence with a heavy heart.

The terrifying scene on the street just now made him never come back to his senses.

Is it a coincidence?

Or is it the Mark of the Koi Order that reminds him of danger?

Because he had been thinking about this issue, he didn't hear an acquaintance talking to Chen Deling.
