Chapter 1571 Ghost Temple

Fatty's expression changed instantly when he heard the word Dream Demon, but Jiang Cheng nodded, "It's so... rare to be killed by a Dream Demon while sleeping."

"What, little brother, are there people who died in this way?" the man dressed as a porter asked.

"I've heard of it, but I've never seen it with my own eyes." Jiang Cheng replied.

The fat man listened to them going back and forth and noticed something strange. These people seemed to be playing riddles. What was strange to him was that these people didn't seem to have much emotion for the dead people on the ground, at least he didn't see much from their faces. of sadness.

Are these people... not companions?

The monks covered the body with a white cloth, and then arranged incense candlesticks. There was no futon, so they sat cross-legged on the cold ground and began to chant sutras for salvation.

For some reason, Fatty got a headache when he heard the scriptures they recited. Jiang Cheng comforted these people for a few words before leaving with Fatty.

After leaving the hospital, the fat man couldn't wait to come over and asked: "Doctor, what riddles are you playing with those people?"

Jiang Cheng exhaled and slowly looked at him, "Do you remember the people you met while escaping last night?"

The fat man nodded repeatedly, "Of course I remember, there seemed to be 6 or 7 people. You said they were from the same team just now. Mr. Guan also chased them later.

"It's them, and they also discovered us." Jiang Cheng said, "They were testing us just now. The old man suddenly mentioned the Dream Demon. Your reaction shows that they guessed it right."

Thinking back to the scene just now, Fatty knew that he was right, but later he realized something even more terrifying. In his dream last night, Mr. Guan went after the group of people, and then... that young man also died in Last night!

Jiang Cheng nodded to the fat man, "You are right, I think that was definitely not an ordinary dream, and that young man was also killed in the dream and imprisoned by the Second Master."

This guess sounded good, but he couldn't withstand further scrutiny. The fat man immediately questioned: "That's not right, doctor. If the person killed by Mr. Guan in the dream will die in reality, how can Monk Huiming explain that there is also someone killed by Mr. Guan? There are so many monks here, they are living well!”

To be honest, Jiang Cheng had also thought about this problem, but couldn't figure it out. However, he guessed that it must be related to the so-called cultivating merit.

"By the way, did you notice that there were fewer people in their room just now? Counting the dead one on the ground, there were only 7 people." The fat man seemed to have suddenly thought of something and said quickly.

Jiang Cheng continued to walk outside, "The younger man is the middle-aged man who opened the door for us before. He should also be the most skilled person in this team."

The fat man was not as careful as Jiang Cheng, but he remembered that the doctor had said before that this man had one hand hidden behind his back. It was obvious that he was hiding a weapon and was also guarding against the two of them.

"Where did that person go?" Fatty asked as he followed Jiang Cheng.

"That's where we just went." Jiang Cheng replied casually.

The fat man opened his eyes wide when he heard this, "You mean Merit Hall?"

Later, the fat man seemed to have suddenly figured it out. He nodded and said, "I understand. They had the same dream as us last night. In the dream, they also saw the ridiculous things of those monks. After waking up, they They couldn't tell the truth from the false, not to mention that one of them really died, so after discussing it, they sent the most skilled person to the place in the dream, that is, the Hall of Merit to investigate. "

"Let's go find Monk Huicong." Jiang Cheng walked towards the Zhaitang.

…

"Nothing at all? No trace left at all?"

In the dim side room, the woman's voice was full of disbelief. The monks who came to chant sutras had already left. In front of her was a middle-aged man with a resolute face.

The man picked up the water bowl and drank it in one gulp, his chest heaving and his brows filled with uneasiness, "Miss, it's true, and... there are monks on duty outside that building. I originally planned to find a secluded place to climb over the wall and go in. After all, I didn’t expect that a group of monks suddenly appeared from behind me.”

"But I'm... I'm obviously very careful. I didn't feel anyone approaching at all." The middle-aged man swallowed nervously. Not only was he a general in front of the battle, he was also good at infiltration and assassination, otherwise he wouldn't have been chosen. He wanted to go, but the group of monks appeared silently, which still makes him feel scared when he thinks about it.

The steady-looking old man couldn't help but frown, "Go on, what else did you discover."

"The leader of the group of monks called himself Master Huide. He asked me what I was doing here. I originally wanted to find a reason to send them away, but I didn't expect that Master Huide actually mentioned those two people, who were us... who were saved by us. The two people said that they were like this just now, and if they didn’t believe it, they could take me in and have a look.”

"I felt something was wrong, so I wanted to shirk it quickly and come back to report the news, but Monk Huide and the others seemed very unhappy, and their faces became gloomy. They said that the reputation of the precepts temple must not be desecrated, and there must be a resolution on this matter. So I had no choice but to go in with them.”

At this point, the middle-aged man's tone became excited, "I saw that building, it's the one in The Dream Demon. The monks call it the Gongde Hall. It's a place where you study Buddhism and practice to gain merit. The doors and windows of the Gongde Hall are not damaged. , and the layout inside is also slightly different from what we saw in the Dream Demon last night.”

"You also know that I am addicted to alcohol and am very sensitive to the smell of alcohol, but there is not a trace of alcohol in that Merit Hall, I can be sure!"

The faces of the people present all turned strange after hearing this. The dream of last night was vivid in their minds. The group of monks not only drank and ate meat, but also beat and kicked a monk, forcing him to do the same thing. Then, an evil ghost in the form of a handsome man kicked the door open and killed all the monks present.

Then...then they were suddenly found hiding outside. No, that's not right. It was the two people who found them first, and then they found them.

In short, the evil ghost finally chased them, and the attendant Aqima unfortunately fell down while fleeing in a panic. Then, the evil ghost who was chasing him chopped his head off with a knife. At that time, blood splattered all over the ground. The scene was very bloody.

When he woke up, except for Aqima's unclear death, everything else had changed. The monks were safe and sound, and the destroyed buildings were restored to their original state.

The maid-like girl turned pale with fear, "This can't be...can't it be a haunted temple?"

"Shut up!" the woman scolded, then said in silence for a moment: "This nightmare is definitely not without reason. Find the crazy monk who was beaten. He may have clues."
