Chapter 114: The Ancient Temple's Monks Retreat from Resentment (1)

This sudden frightening attack made everyone feel a deep chill from the heart, and I don't know why, Xu Cheng's mind naturally appeared another movie called "The Conjuring".

After the trial team waited for a while, and made sure that Gacozi had left temporarily, Zhang Jinyun suggested with a gloomy face: "We must find the local sect forces as soon as possible, just like my grandfather suggested, and find the high monk warlock here to help us." ”

At this time, everyone had no idea about the next arrangement, and Zhang Jinyun's suggestion undoubtedly looked more reliable.

Compared to other places, well-known Buddhist temples are obviously the easiest to find, and one thing to say, the two most knowledgeable people in the team are Li Zhi and Zhang Jinyun.

Li Zhi is a world-renowned expert in the field of science and technology, and Japan is a well-known electronic technology powerhouse, so he has come to Japan many times, as for Zhang Jinyun, he went to Japan purely for exchange and tourism with his family.

"Let's go to Sensoji Temple first, it's the largest temple on the surface and it's close to us, I've heard my family say that this temple is still a bit powerful." Zhang Jinyun was the first to make a suggestion, and at the same time pointed to the Sensoji temple sign on the map.

Everyone didn't have any opinions, and immediately left the hotel, Xu Cheng called the hotel front desk and asked them to help call a taxi.

The hotel may have a contract with the taxi company, but it didn't take long for the front desk to call the room and tell Xu Cheng that the taxi was ready.

People who like to take a taxi in Japan generally have a decent income, and the journey from the hotel to Sensoji Temple takes up to half an hour, but the taxi driver actually asked Xu Cheng for more than 1,000 yen, which is really too high compared to China.

However, Xu Cheng's small Sumeru ring contained a full 1.5 million yen, and he directly gave two 1,000 yen denominations, which can be said to fully express his stupid and wealthy local tyrant atmosphere with his own behavior.

Sensoji Temple is really worthy of the famous temple, after getting off the bus and walking for a while, Xu Cheng and his entourage arrived at the gate of Sensoji Temple, it can be clearly seen that the design style of Sensoji Temple is almost exactly the same as the architectural style of the Tang Dynasty, and the subtlety of China's unique mortise and tenon structure and wooden architecture is vividly reflected in this temple.

Xu Cheng and his entourage officially entered the temple after passing through the famous 'Wind and Thunder Main Gate'.

After entering the 'Wind and Thunder Main Gate' of this temple, Xu Cheng and his party felt that the faint coldness on their bodies seemed to be suppressed, and with the bright sun at eight or nine o'clock, the group felt the relaxation of body and mind, of course, this feeling seemed to be only available to those of them who had received the curse, but the bustling tourists and pilgrims around them did not seem to have this feeling at all.

But in any case, the emergence of this situation made the group have some expectations for this trip.

Soon they arrived at the place where pilgrims were not allowed to enter again, and a delicate-looking little monk patiently stopped the group outside the cordon.

In desperation, Xu Cheng could only tell the truth: "We people have been plagued by the resentful spirit of a murderous house in the past few days, as far as we know, as long as the people who have entered that house will be killed by ghosts, no one can hide, so we hope to seek the help of the abbot of your temple, my Buddha is merciful, really please!" ”

The expression on the little monk's face began to be gentle and resolute again, he thought for a while, and said: "Fellow donors, the host may not meet with you, but I am willing to convey your questions for you, but I hope that you will not move forward during this time, and behind it is the monks' retreat." ”

Seeing that this little monk was kind-hearted, everyone's hearts were relieved, and they hurriedly promised that they would not wander around.

Seeing the little monk's sleek little head disappear at the door, the group could only wait in place, hoping that the respected abbot of the temple could help them, during this period, Li Zhi did not wait like the others, but began to discuss the details of this trial mission.

"Rather than wait, let's discuss the meaning behind this trial mission." Li Zhi frowned and said thoughtfully, "Haven't you ever doubted that Yuan has given us the right to freely choose tasks this time?" I mean, what does he mean by that choice? ”

Everyone was already bored, and once they calmed down, they would remember the terrifying ghost attack this morning, so as soon as Li Zhi said this, everyone began to rack their brains to deduce the purpose of Yuan's assignment in their minds.

"Let me tell you what I think, shall I?" Li Zhi touched the stubble on his chin, which was never more than half a centimeter, and said, "I think that in fact, Yuan has the following implicit meanings for assigning tasks like this. First of all, we all know that the rewards after the completion of the two tasks are very different, and the reward for killing ghosts can be said to be more than double the number of tasks that can be completed in seven days, obviously, the source is telling us that only by fighting head-on can we get more rewards, and the higher rewards are brought about a great increase in the strength of each trialist, which is like a virtuous circle, which is also very consistent with the competition model within the source space, and it is only temporary to survive by luck, Only those who are constantly strong can live to the end with a smile! ”

Speaking of this, Li Zhi began to say the second point: "Second, think about it, why is the first task to let us live for seven days? I think it's very likely that it's a hint from the source that every day of the seven days is likely to have passed a level, and the difficulty of each level increases, which I came up with according to the pattern of last night and this morning. It was obvious that we were only harassed by ghosts last night, and even Xiahou Min's attack only caused a temporary paralysis of the legs, but this morning's attack from the burning of that spiritual rune failed to completely stop the attack of the coconut, and from this point it is obvious that the intensity of our attack or the strength of the cocot has increased. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Cheng had a bad conjecture, so he assumed: "Then if we wait until the seventh day... Is that the most intense attack? That is, the strongest state of gamma coconuts?! ”

After Li Zhi heard Xu Cheng's guess, he nodded appreciatively and said: "That's right, that's what I think, so I came to another guess from this, the trial task given by Yuan this time has not changed in essence, that is, it is simply for us to kill the resentful spirits of Gaco and Saeki Toshio, but it is just to test whether we choose to escape or face in the face of danger, if I guess correctly, if we choose the first mission, It is very likely that by the time he woke up, he had already made the strength of Gacoco to the point where he could almost wipe out all the members...... So this trial, in my opinion, it is possible to choose the two paths of life and death for everyone from the beginning! ”

This speculation is not terrifying, because no one among the trial team members present except Li Zhi would have such in-depth thinking about the task assigned by Yuan, and this kind of thoughtful and terrifying thing made everyone's hearts chuckle involuntarily.

But just when everyone's hearts were fluctuating, the little monk from before happened to come back.

The little monk saw that everyone was not running around, and the vague worry on his face instantly dissipated, obviously he was still a little worried about Xu Cheng and his party walking around in the temple before he was here.

"The donors are really trustworthy people, no wonder the host is willing to form a good relationship with you although he rarely sees people in ordinary times." The little monk folded his hands and greeted everyone with a smile.

This place where visitors are not allowed to enter is really unusual, in this temple, Xu Cheng feels as if he is separated from the noisy international metropolis outside by a layer of enchantment, but there is a kind of taste of hermit in the market.

Under the guidance of the little monk, the trial team members walked for about six or seven minutes before arriving at a quiet room where the host was.

"Enhiro, bring a few guests in." A kind old voice came from behind the bamboo curtain: "Oh, if you have time, please make me another pot of water." ”

The little monk named Yuanhong responded respectfully, pulled up the bamboo curtain, and then stepped on the small clogs and carried the kettle to boil water.

Xu Cheng looked at the host sitting behind the bamboo curtain with some curiosity.

On the contrary, this host is a thin old man, with a wheat-colored skin, and a little black age spots on the skin reveal that the host is already very old, but perhaps because of the daily chanting and fasting and practicing Buddhism, Xu Cheng felt that this old man was upright and kind when he saw him, and there was a feeling of kindness and kindness in his face.

"Hahahaha, you have come from afar to ask for help from the poor monks, you must be tired at this time, why don't you sit down and rest and taste the tea?" The host smiled and made a gesture of please, revealing the host's cultivation in every gesture.

Of course, everyone couldn't refuse the host's invitation, and they all sat on the tatami mats obediently.

"Master, we are only here this time because we are under the curse of the resentful spirit, if we can't break the curse, I'm afraid we will be harmed by evil spirits in a few days, and please master can save our lives." Xu Cheng poured out worriedly.

The host calmly listened to Xu Cheng's appeal, frowned slightly, and asked, "When you asked Yuanhong to come in before, you said that you had entered a house by mistake to cause the resentful spirits to ask for your life, right?" ”

Xu Cheng nodded, and when the host saw that Xu Cheng was affirmative, he said: "I know where you have been...... The host shook his head thoughtfully, sighed, and said: "There have been several young people before you who have also encountered this kind of thing, but as I know, these people all died at the hands of that resentful spirit. ”

Xu Cheng saw that the host meant that the death date of these people was basically set, but the host suddenly changed his words and said: "I can't bear to let that resentful spirit kill innocent people again, so I have been looking for a way to restrain this murderous thing, and I want to try my best to help you when I meet you this time." ”
