【Ding!Congratulations on clearing the copy of "Paradise Strange Talk: Nine Dragon Festival", newcomers will unlock and enjoy the skill card gift pack, your current Paradise Coin ranks third, and you are eligible to sign a contract...]

Watching Zhang Wen disappear, Fang Shu leaned back and glanced at Yan Lan quietly.

The latter seemed to have noticed something, turned around and instantly logged out of the game.

"Are they all newcomer announcements?"

Yanlan picked up the thermos cup placed in a safe place, feeling a little tired:
"This audition is really lively."

I thought that when I came back this time, I would meet people in the circle later.

I didn't want to get into this dog game.

In the first scene, I met a direct disciple of the Illusion Sect, an official spy, and an unknown Dr. Fang...

This is really enough.

"This place has nothing to do with the practice world."

Yan Lan pressed her eyebrows with her hands.

Whatever it is, if it comes, it will be safe.

"I can't do without a weapon, I still have to go back and find the bone axe."

Yan Lan looked at the surface of the water, and muttered with worry: "But the diving suit is broken, it's not easy to go down..."

"Puff." The water splashed in all directions, and the arowana with the net in its mouth emerged from the water.

"Yo," Yan Lan was slightly surprised, "Why are you back?"

Arowana rolled his eyes, threw the net to the shore, and spat out the net in disgust:
"I see you are pitiful, just show kindness."

In the fishnet was the bone ax that Yanlan wanted to get back.

"I don't eat and drink for nothing, and I don't live with you for nothing."

The dragon fish bulged its gills, raised its tail and pushed the bone ax towards Yanlan, "This is the down payment."

Yan Lan felt amused: "Okay."

She's all right.

Arowana breathed a sigh of relief, and snorted, "You want me to be an employee, so what should I do?"

"I'll talk about the staff later, it's about looking at the water flow of the pipeline view." Yan Lan took out the bone ax and weighed it, "Water master wealth, and you are a koi, so it's perfect."

Anyway, the Taoist temple has not yet settled down.

"The most important thing for you now is to practice, to strip away the pollution caused by the forced sacrifice."

Yan Lan emphasized, "Remember, it's stripping, not purification—I need those polluted fragments."

Arowana patted the water, with hesitation in his eyes:
"You don't mean to... find the souls of the sacrificed among the tainted debris?"

Yan Lan nodded.

"It's impossible!" Arowana was shocked.

"I haven't tried it, how do you know it's impossible?"

Yan Lan's body was sore, she simply bent her elbows under her ears and lay sideways by the pool:
"Besides, this is a promise, a promise I made to that couple.

"The entanglement of cause and effect must be resolved."

[Shen Xiari was murdered to death, but she died unjustly, and her obsession and soul have not dissipated.

[I can save it, it depends on whether you dare to bet. 】

Beside Shen Xiari's corpse, Yan Lan approached Song Jinghong's ear, and whispered softly:
[I want you to be killed and swallowed by the nine-headed dragon, and take the opportunity to control part of its soul, preventing it from jumping over the dragon gate at a critical moment.

【As long as you can finish it, I can reunite you with Shen Xiari. This is a promise, and I will do what I say. 】

Yan Lan withdrew from the memories, smiled relievedly:

"Although I am not a moral person, I have some very precious virtues."

Arowana was dubious: "For example?"

"For example, frugality, for example, kindness, for example, trustworthiness."

"..."

Arowana remained expressionless, and spit out a bubble:

"Oh, as long as you're happy."

These virtues are so obscure and abstract that they require further examination.

"Can the witch mask be removed?"

There are cultural differences in cross-species communication, and Yanlan doesn't care about it.

"The witch's mask is an innate magic weapon. To put it bluntly, it is the condensed matter of the polluted energy flow on my body."

The dragon fish shook its body, wisps of black air lingered and condensed, covering the fish's face into a pure black smiling mask.

In a trance, there is a charmingly smiling girl, an indifferent man, an old lady, a laughing doll, a bloody murderer, a tearful old man...

The faces are complex and lifelike.

It shook again, and the black air was hidden in the rotten and broken fish scales.

"You have to wait for me to molt before you can get it. It will be incomplete if I give it to you now, and the side effects will only be greater."

"I'm in no hurry."

Yanlan is not interested in the magic weapon that the illusion door dreams of, she cares about another thing.

"How much do you know about the girl who drowned on the snorkeling cableway in 2000?"

"You mean the soul of Dragon Palace?"

"Yes."

"There are too many sacrificed people, and I don't remember much, but she is indeed special."

Arowana thought for a while, "Because she was not sacrificed to me by the Illusion Sect, but by another group of people."

Yan Lan frowned: "Isn't it the School of Illusion?"

"No."

"What did the sacrificer ask for?"

"Change life."

——Change life? !

"Is it an exchange of future lives, or a direct exchange of identities?"

"How could I remember such a disgusting thing so clearly, and I have a bad memory!"

Arowana spit out seven bubbles in one breath, complaining in his eyes, resentful:

"A fish's memory is only seven seconds, do you have any common sense?!"

The fish spirit's memory is really bad.

"I see," Yan Lan sighed, "This is enough."

For the rest, she can investigate by herself.

"This matter has nothing to do with you, why should you pursue it? There are so many injustices in the world, how can you resolve them one by one?"

Arowana turned around twice and muttered in a low voice: "I think you didn't get to the bottom of that suspicious little doctor, just let it go."

Alchemy...

Something was wrong to the point that this little stupid fish could tell.

"It's different."

Yan Lan brushed her hair, pressed her forehead with her palm, and said in a helpless tone:
"Fang Shu and I just met by chance, and he has no intention of harming me, so I don't need to break the casserole and ask the other party to bother to lie.

"But the matter of sacrificing to resolve injustice... don't say that I need this merit, but that I can help if I find a problem now, so there is no reason to stay out of it and stand by.

"I'm a Taoist anyway, not to say that I love the world, but at least I have a clear conscience."

"It's been more than 20 years," Long Yu said distressedly, "Even if you go to the place where the incident happened to summon the soul, you may not be able to find out anything."

The stamina of overwork surged.

Yan Lan closed her eyes to relieve her headache, and said softly:
"I know, try it first when you go out, it's not good to be subjective."

Arowana wagged his tail approvingly.

The surroundings fell silent again.

"Hey, I really..."

Arowana opened his mouth suddenly, and patted the edge of the wall with his tail to attract Yan Lan's attention.

Yan Lan slightly opened her eyelids and looked at it.

"Can Xie Chong really live in a Taoist temple? Will your ancestors drive me out?"

Arowana remained silent for a few seconds, then said in a muffled voice, "I have lost all my fish scales. If you scare off the people who come to worship, you can't blame me, anyway!"

It glared fiercely at Yan Lan, trying to threaten:
"Anyway, the witch mask is still on me. If you break your promise and get fat, I will be ruined..."

The voice became lower and lower under Yan Lan's smiling gaze, and she felt like a child who made trouble with her elders unreasonably.

But I am several times older than this human trail!
Still super evil!

Arowana raised his head: "Anyway, I told..."

"*The lotus seat is here, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva has something to say."

Arowana was stunned, seeing Yan Lan lowered her eyebrows and tapped the ground lightly with her fingers, her eyes were clear and gentle:

"The heart of great compassion is the heart of equality, the heart of inaction is the heart of non-defilement, the heart of emptiness is the heart."

After the rain, the sky is sunny, and the moon and stars are rare.

In the Dragon Palace, Avalokitesvara lowered his eyebrows to show compassion for all living beings, while raindrops slowly leaked from the roof, and poured into the jade bottle along the branches and leaves.

The sound is clear and peaceful.

"The mind of reverence is, the mind of humility is, the mind of no confusion is the mind, the mind of seeking without seeing is the mind, and the mind of unsurpassed Bodhi is the mind."

Outside the hall, Yan Lan smiled with a gentle tone.

Tap the dull arowana in the water with your fingers, like a fairy touching the top, bestowing love and mercy:

"You should know that such a mind is the appearance of Dharani, and you should practice it accordingly."

　*"The Great Compassion Curse"

　　Probably the ugly and terrifying hell monster asked the Bodhisattva, how can I cultivate so ugly and scary, and the Bodhisattva answered it.

　　"Cultivation is inside, not outside, in the heart and not in the body."
