The end of the world begins with failing an exam

Chapter 528: The first light of the lantern·Moth flies into the flame

In the Buddha Mother Hall, candlelight flickered.

When Chen Jing said the last few words, the magnificent hall seemed to be shrouded in some kind of ominous shadow, a "haze" that was invisible to the naked eye but could be perceived through the visual system...

at this moment.

It was as if the air had condensed.

The depressing atmosphere made everyone present feel quite uncomfortable, especially the elders sitting behind Oga. Many of the grumpy people were ready to lift the table because the provocative meaning of Chen Jing's words was much greater than before. Chen Bofu's crazy taunts were much more powerful, not to mention that Chen Jing's words were directly addressed to the leader of the temple, Erga.

"We are not those beasts from the Monastery, nor are we the iron-headed alchemists from Hanging City... there are some things we cannot do." Erga didn't have any anger in his heart, but showed a curious expression towards Chen Jing, It seemed that he didn't expect that the child Qiao Youning would have such weight in his heart.

Threat?

Or a warning?

Erga looked at Chen Jing with interest, the smile on his face was still so kind and kind, like an elder who doted on his children.

"Lord Erga, I believe you."

Chen Jing suddenly smiled, and the depressing aura on his body disappeared without a trace, as if he had returned to his normal appearance in an instant, with his slightly green face still looking so harmless.

"I'm just worried about the influence of the Buddha Mother on You Ning. After all, she has a very special status in your temple, so I have to think more about it..."

"Are you worried that we will use her as a sacrifice to the Buddha Mother, or are you worried that the Buddha Mother will assimilate her?" Ega asked with interest.

"Both." Chen Jing replied with a smile, without any cover-up.

Erga hummed and fiddled with the rosary beads in his hand.

The kind and kind face was full of smiles, as if he was thinking about something, and he spoke again after a moment.

"We have never used her as a pawn, but I can't guarantee whether she will be assimilated by the Buddha Mother in the future... Just like we ourselves are not exempt from this risk, the more power we borrow from the Buddha Mother, the more we need to pay The price will be higher, you should understand this."

"As long as I'm here, she doesn't have to do anything, but if I'm not with her, I hope you can help me watch her." Chen Jing said with a smile.

"If she is really given to the Buddha one day..." Erjia looked at Chen Jing and asked calmly.

But before he could finish speaking, Chen Jing suddenly interrupted him.

Under the flickering lights.

Chen Jing silently looked back at the seated statue of the Buddha on the altar, his calm eyes not showing much emotion.

"If she really had an accident because of the Buddha Mother, then your temple may have to change its beliefs."

"presumptuous!!!"

"You are too arrogant!! Do you know what you are talking about?! You are just a resuscitator in deep space..."

"Do you have any objections?"

Just when the elders were furious, Chen Bofu, who had been holding a cigarette in his mouth and remained silent, spoke.

Although the old man still looked lazy, smacking his lips with his chin on his hand, half-opening his eyelids as if he was about to fall asleep at any moment... But the moment he spoke, a chilling energy aura suddenly appeared. It quietly poured out of him.

It was a tide of energy visible to the naked eye.

The energy from the disaster sequence turned into liquid, and the blackness spread in the hall as sticky as ink.

In the blink of an eye.The splendid Buddha Hall was covered with a thick layer of black mucus, and even the seated statue of the Buddha changed color at this moment.

Accompanied by a weird and sticky sound, countless pairs of eyes slowly opened on this layer of black water, as if there were tens of thousands of weird creatures hiding in it...

Being stared at by them with such vicious and crazy eyes, the other elders except Oga only felt a little shuddered, as if the malicious eyes were like a virus, silently infecting them all, It invades the bone marrow and even spreads deep into the cells, completely cutting off their connection with the Buddha Mother.

"Although I really don't want to be the one who disturbs the situation, I really can't stand your attitude towards my grandson, not to mention looking at the Buddha's face without looking at the monk's face. This saying has been spread from your temple... You have all forgotten ?"

Chen Bofu's body was constantly twisting, as if it had been deformed by this invisible energy tide. In an instant, he lost his human form and was just like a wandering gloomy thick fog.

"You scolded my grandson in front of me. I think you are all tired of living..."

At this moment, the elders suddenly remembered what happened back then. It was the year when Chen Boxu fought fiercely with the temple. The psychological shadow he left on everyone has not been eliminated... A moving humanoid natural disaster, an unknown source of disaster.

These names seemed to have been given to him by these elders.

at this time.

Suddenly a clear bell rang in the hall.

Before everyone could find the source of the bell, they saw that the black liquid covering the surface of the hall began to fade away, especially the black substance covering the layers of the seated Buddha statue. It disappeared almost instantly, revealing the golden light. The radiant true form of the Mother Buddha.

"Although I remembered that you were small-minded, I didn't expect that after so many years, you really haven't become big-hearted at all..." Erga said helplessly, "Can we not fight..."

With that said, Erjia suddenly stood up and walked to Chen Jing.

Chen Jing also stood up and looked at the kind old man with a smile on his face.

"Do not worry."

Erjia extended his right hand to Chen Jing and said in a serious tone.

"Whether You Ning is your friend or not, the temple will not let her be wronged, let alone let her become a part of the Buddha Mother... Just like you said, we will keep a close eye on her and will not allow her to If you misuse the power of the Buddha Mother, you will not be easily assimilated by the Buddha Mother."

"Then we are our own people." Chen Jing held Ega's hand tightly, feeling that it did not look like an old man's hand. The skin was indescribably delicate. "I will try my best to solve the problem of the Buddha Mother. But the premise is that you have to tell me how the entire sealing ritual works, otherwise I can’t do anything.”

"of course."

Erga said with a smile, looking back at the elder.

"Take these two distinguished guests to the guest room to rest. The banquet will be postponed until midnight for the time being. I will go to the Sutra Pavilion to make a copy of the ritual drawings."

"Yes."

……

When leaving the Buddha Mother Hall, Chen Boxu was still a little unhappy.

Because he felt that these monks were not the kind of people who were sensible and good-looking. If the good grandson hadn't been there to persuade him, he would have fallen out with Erga at that time...

"If you ask me, these guys just don't need a lesson. How dare they show off to us!"

"never mind."

Chen Jing supported the old man and walked outside a secluded courtyard of the temple. He had a gentle smile on his face and did not take the attitude of the elders to heart.

"If nothing else, at least they are treating Qiao Youning well so far. Let's forget it for her sake."
