There is only a black statue of Guanyin in the temple, it is very empty, it is very simple inside, just a few thick straws are scattered and built, count them, it is exactly six, Yuan Ming himself sat in the middle, others sat down at will, seeing this interior scene, the heart could not help but deepen the admiration for Yuan Ming.

"Master Yuanming, have you been living here?"

Louis's tone was also very respectful.

"It's too much trouble to move, so I just live at random, and occasionally go out for a walk. ”

Yuan Ming didn't elaborate, but the meaning in his tone was indeed to live here.

Ying Xiaoling and the others looked at each other, since Yuan Ming has been living here, but the people in the foreign land have not been able to confirm where he lives, there are only two reasons, one is that Yuan Ming's ability is too strong and can appear or disappear as he wants, and the other is that everyone in the foreign land chooses to lie in order to protect Yuan Ming.

"Master Yuanming, can you save Jian Tan?" Ying Xiaoling left the straw mat and stood up, looking at Yuan Ming expectantly with a worried expression.

Of course, Yuan Ming understood Ying Xiaoling's meaning, and looked at Jian Tan lying on the grass, "It's not a question of whether I can save it, but whether she wants to live or not." ”

"If she wants to live, she must want to live, she still has a beloved, she must just be unable to figure it out for a while. Ying Xiaoling hurriedly explained to Jian Tan.

"Of all the things in the world, it is generally not others who can save people, but oneself. I met her not long after she came into this world. Yuan Ming said slowly.

"When did you meet once?" Ying Xiaoling felt strange, he had seen such an amazing person, Jian Tan hadn't even mentioned it.

"N city, the temple of the statue of Kannon. ”

Yuan Ming held the rosary in his hand and slowly said what happened at that time.

At that time, she came with a young man, who was very considerate of her, but it was evident that she was only his friend, and it was no wonder, after all, that her soul was a man. ”

"Then she needed to open the black beads in her hand, and the little master outside introduced me to him, and I saw them in the aisle, and I could not bear to see at a glance that the man beside her would die because of her. ”

"I know that the string of beads is the index that pulls her and the man's fate, and that string of beads makes her suffer a lot in this world, so ...... I didn't end up repairing her beads, which are the orbs of evil spirits. ”

Ying Xiaoling listened to the whole thing, and finally understood, it turned out that Jian Tan had tried to go there to find a way to repair the evil bead! But she didn't know that the person in front of her was the one who had calculated her fate early in the morning.

"But it still happened, girl, you helped her repair the evil bead, so fate is back on the same track. ”

"Master. Ying Xiaoling bowed solemnly, "May I ask the master, have you seen through Jian Tan's future fate?"

Yuan Ming shook his head, "Fate is sometimes irreversible, fate sometimes has a fork in the road, sometimes it depends on people's own choices, and the future will not be conclusive for poor monks." ”

Chen Xu also stood up at this time, "Master, there is something that the little monk doesn't understand. ”

Yuan Ming nodded for him to continue.

"If this is a fork in the road, is the master himself also one of the forks in the road?"

Yuan Ming was stunned when he heard Chenxu's question, and a trace of appreciation flashed in his eyes.

Chen Xu continued to ask, "If not, then what is the point of the master here?"

Yuan Ming smiled slightly and rolled up his sleeves, "Young man, your understanding is very high. ”

Taishi Yunshan also stood up at this time, "Master, Jian Tan is of great significance to this world, can you tell us the whereabouts of the Nai River?"

"Yes. Unexpectedly, Yuan Ming immediately agreed to Taishi Yunshan's request, and immediately took out a cyan porcelain vase from his sleeve.

"Great! Thank you, Master. Ying Xiaoling jumped over and caught the porcelain vase with both hands.

Ying Xiaoling was so happy that tears were about to fall.

"But the water of the Nai River is not to save her, but to return her soul to its place, if you let her drink, she can indeed return to the original world, but on the other hand, if she leaves, then there is no point in her suffering here. ”

After Ying Xiaoling heard this, he felt that the small porcelain bottle in his hand was a little heavy.

"Master. Ying Xiaoling suddenly thought of something.

"I can't choose for her, do you have a way to sober her up? I want her to choose, whatever the outcome, I'll accept it. ”

Although Ying Xiaoling is reluctant, compared to letting Jane die, Ying Xiaoling would rather let her live well in another world, and let her bear her responsibility, even if she gives up her life, she will not regret it.

Master Yuanming nodded, "Girl, are you really willing to sacrifice for her?"

Tai Shi Yunshan and Louis felt that there was something wrong with this, and hurriedly waved their hands beside them.

Ying Xiaoling nodded firmly.

Master Yuanming sighed, "Ask what the situation in the world is, the heavens must not be leaked, I hope you can do everything as you like." ”

Master Yuanming stood up, "Come with me, there is a cold ice soup pool here in the foreign land, where you can repair and strengthen the soul, maybe you can revive her." As for whether to use the water of the Nai River, it is up to her to decide, and she does not have to pay me back in the future. ”

The four of Taishi Yunshan thought that Master Yuanming was going to walk, but the next moment they found that their bodies were standing in place, moving in the air under their feet, and controlling the movement of five people at the same time, what kind of divine is this Master Yuanming!

Soon, Master Yuan Ming took the four of Taishi Yunshan and the unconscious Jian Tan to the foot of a snow-capped mountain, and there was a snow-white ice lake in front of him, could this be the cold ice soup pool in Yuan Ming's mouth?

Yuan Ming quickly confirmed their guess.

"This is the cold soup pool, let her go down. ”

Ying Xiaoling was a little worried, "Master, how deep is this soup pool? Jane is in a coma, she will be out of breath." ”

Yuan Ming nodded, "People do sink to the bottom of the ice, but the deeper it is, the better the effect, Jian Tan's condition at this time, there is no difference between breathing and not breathing." ”

"Xiao Ling, believe in the master. ”

Chen Xu persuaded on the side, and Tai Shi Yunshan and Louis also agreed.

Ying Xiaoling had no choice but to look at Chenxu silently, carried Jian Tan to the shore, and gently pushed her into the cold ice soup pool, Jian Tan's face was too pale, Ying Xiaoling kept staring at her, watching her gradually sink into the water, and felt a pain in her heart.

When Chen Xu approached the soup pool, he felt the cold of the soup pool, if it weren't for the spiritual power to protect his body, he must have formed ice cubes.

"Master, what are we going to do now?" Ying Xiaoling asked.

"Wait, wait for her to come back by herself. ”

Yuan Ming's answer was very illusory, and Ying Xiaoling became uneasy.

"Master, don't you have a bottom in your heart?"

"Xiao Ling!" Tai Shi Yunshan wanted to stop Ying Xiao Ling's rudeness.

"The poor monk is indeed bottomless, life and death, it is all up to her. After speaking, Yuan Ming no longer spoke, but sat cross-legged on the ground.

Ying Xiaoling clenched his fists tightly, his face was sad, and he looked at the soup pool stubbornly.

Delay, please come back quickly, Tang Xi doesn't want to see you like this.

It was very cold, and Jian Tan's consciousness was very weak, but this coldness was several times colder than it was at the bottom of the river, and it couldn't be relieved? Could it be that this was the cold that she needed to endure after becoming a lonely soul? If so, Jian Tan hoped that this cold would always exist, and that her guilt would be lightened a little.

It turns out that even if you become a lonely soul, you can't be freed.

"That's right, being a lonely soul is just an escape, not a liberation. ”

Suddenly, an old man's voice came into Jian Tan's sea of consciousness, and Jian Tan found that this person's voice was a little familiar, but she couldn't think of who it was, but it didn't matter.

"Do you remember who I am?"

Jian Tan still didn't answer.

"Do you remember the statue of Guanyin?"

Of course, Jian Tan will not forget that it was Tang Xi who accompanied her at that time, but now...... Why did this person mention the statue of Guanyin, scenes gradually emerged, and gradually blurred, Jian Tan suddenly caught a master trying to open the light and ward off evil beads for her.

"You...... The Master?"

"That's right. It turned out that Yuan Ming was actually connected with Jian Tan's consciousness.

"Why are you here?"

"My mission is to see you once, save you once, and it will be done, but your own life or death is up to you, even if you give up, the responsibility is not mine. ”

Jian Tan's consciousness chuckled, "Then don't worry, let me be." ”

"Are you blaming yourself, killing your companions, killing your friends' relatives, and taking away the lives that others deserve?"

Jian Tan's consciousness seemed to dissipate, and she didn't want to listen to it.

"But you didn't think that even if it wasn't you, someone else would be you. It's like when I tried to help you escape once. ”

When Jian Tan heard this, he finally reacted.

"Help me escape once? ”

"You once asked me to open the Evil Bead, but I asked someone to tell you that the Enlightenment failed, in fact, I had the ability to help you completely repair the Evil Bead. ”

"What?" Jian Tan's consciousness was a little confused, she didn't know why.

"The reason why I did this in the first place is because I saw the fate of the young man around me through you, and I also saw the heavy shackles on you, and I couldn't bear it. But in the end, I found that even if I don't repair the orb for you, there will be other ways to fix it, like I want to help you escape, I want to help that kid escape, but in the dark, there seem to be some things that are irreversible. ”

Jian Tan couldn't accept it a little, "So, we are just people who have been caught by fate." ”

"No, it only shows that your existence is meaningful, and everything that happens is meaningful. ”

"That's why Tang Xi has to die, so I have to live in pain. Jian Tan's words were very light.

"Actually, I'm here today, not to let you choose to live, I just want you to know that no one is right or wrong in all this, even if it's not you, there will be others who will inherit the pain you have to bear. You can choose to continue or not. But the one who inherits your pain may suffer even more, is that what you want to see?"
