The man is a monk in the inside, and he starts by giving his wife a crown.

Xiuyuan's voice was flat, and no emotion could be heard.

"Practice diligently and don't slack off. When you are sincere enough and work hard enough, you will naturally get what you want."

"really?"

Ai Li's eyes brightened, as if she had received a great guarantee.

"I will definitely perform well! I will definitely work harder than Xun!"

She immediately straightened her back and assumed a more standard yoga posture, her little face full of seriousness and determination, as if the "nectar" was already in her pocket.

After a while, Ellie's strength gradually declined and her movements slowed down.

"Okay, that's it for today."

Xiuyuan opened his mouth.

"Huh? Is this the end?"

Ai Li felt a little unsatisfied, but she stopped and got up from the ground.

"Then I'll go back to sleep first. Good night, Brother Xiuyuan!"

She left the room, looking back every few steps, and her small figure disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Silence returned to the room.

Xiuyuan sat upright, tapping his knees lightly with his fingers.

Ai Li is a simple-minded child and is easy to guide.

He thought of Saeki Kaori who was still hanging in the basement.

Chapter 73: Golden Holy Water, Saeki Kaori completely collapsed!

Late at night, when everyone was asleep, Xiu Yuan sat cross-legged in the room. His mind moved slightly, and his consciousness sank into the thangka carefully painted with the skin of a succubus.

As the light and shadows flowed, he found himself in that familiar underground space.

In the dim light, Kaori Saeki's figure was suspended in the air.

She was naked, and her limbs were stretched and fixed by invisible chains of Buddha's power, forming a large character shape.

Having not eaten or drunk anything for the entire day, coupled with the constant restraint and fear, she had long since lost her former energy and spirit, her consciousness was almost dispersed, and only the most basic physiological instincts remained.

Xiu Yuan walked slowly to her right below, his eyes sweeping over Saeki Kaori's entire body.

As he thought about it, the Buddhist chains that bound Saeki Kaori slowly loosened, releasing her exhausted body.

"Clap."

Her body fell on the cold, hard ground, and the slight pain made her confused consciousness clearer.

Kaori Saeki raised her head with difficulty, her cracked lips twitching slightly, her vision blurred and focused on the familiar yet frightening figure in front of her.

It's him! That devilish monk!

The instinct to survive overwhelmed everything. She used up her last bit of strength and made a hoarse plea:

"I was wrong... spare me... water... give me water..."

Her throat was so dry it felt like smoking, and every word was torn with pain.

Xiu Yuan looked down at her, without any extra expression on his face, as if he was looking at an inanimate object.

“There’s no water here.”

His voice was flat.

The last ray of light in Saeki Kaori's eyes dimmed, and despair surged like a tide.

"However," Xiu Yuan changed the subject.

"I have golden holy water, would you like some?"

Golden Holy Water? What is that?

A special drink?

Or... Kaori Saeki's remaining sanity made her feel a little uneasy, but her extreme thirst prevented her from thinking too much.

As long as it was liquid and could relieve the burning sensation in her throat, she was willing to try it.

“Drink…I drink…”

She responded almost instinctively.

Xiu Yuan didn't say anything else, but just raised his hand slightly and pinched her jaw. The force was not strong, but it made it impossible for her to break free.

Then her eyes suddenly widened. It turned out that this was the golden holy water that Xiuyuan had mentioned.

Do not!

I don't drink!

I would rather die of thirst than drink.

Kaori Saeki tried desperately to struggle free, but Xiuyuan's hand clamped her chin like an iron clamp, and then her mouth was blocked.

The golden holy water began to flow out.

More importantly, her body betrayed her will.

Extreme thirst burned her internal organs like flames, and every cell in her body was madly craving for water.

As soon as the golden holy water with a strong sense of humiliation entered her mouth, her throat began to swallow uncontrollably.

Gudu, Gudu.

Kaori Saeki wanted to resist, but her limbs were weak and powerless.

Her body was so hungry that amidst the intense feeling of rejection, there was also a hint of morbid satisfaction.

My mind went blank, and the only thing left was the instinct to swallow.

Soon, she swallowed the golden holy water without leaving a drop.

Kaori Saeki suddenly arched her body and began to retch violently, tears and saliva flowing uncontrollably, mixed with despair and nausea.

"Cough... vomit..."

She lay on the ground, looking miserable, her body twitching with nausea.

Xiu Yuan stood in front of her, looking at her calmly, as if he was admiring a piece of art that was undergoing the necessary process.

"How does it feel?"

He spoke, no emotion in his voice.

"This is 'small incense'. In some esoteric traditions, it is also a kind of spiritual nourishment. You should thank me for giving you this life-saving gift."

Xiaoxiang?

grateful?

Kaori Saeki suddenly raised her head, her face full of incredible humiliation and anger. She wanted to curse, but her throat was so dry that she could only make hoarse sounds.

"It seems you don't understand your situation yet."

Xiuyuan's tone remained calm.

"From today on, until you truly repent and completely surrender, in this dark place, all you can drink is this humble monk's incense, and..."

He paused, his eyes moving over her.

"When you perform well enough, you may be granted the nectar."

honeydew?

Combining this with the little incense just now, Saeki Kaori instantly understood what the nectar was referring to!

She was completely stunned, her mind was blank, and there was only endless fear and despair.

This monk is not a human being! He is a devil!

Before she could digest this horrifying information, the invisible Buddha-force chains tightened again, hoisting her exhausted body back into the air, pulling her limbs apart.

Fixed it into that large font.

"Bastard! Devil! You will die!"

After a brief stagnation, Kaori Saeki finally regained some strength and roared and cursed with all her energy. Her voice was hoarse and unpleasant, but full of resentment.

Xiuyuan turned a deaf ear to her curses, as if they were just the annoying buzzing of mosquitoes and flies.

He knew very well that this level of resistance was just a last-ditch effort.

There are many methods in the Tantric tradition to subdue inner demons and tame externalists, and this one is no exception.

If she stayed locked up for a few more days, all her edges and dignity would be worn away, and she would naturally become obedient. He didn't even bother to look at her any more and turned around to leave.

Afterwards, Xiuyuan no longer paid attention to Saeki Kaori, but sat down cross-legged, formed a seal with his hands, and moved his lips slightly, chanting the six-syllable mantra in a low and rhythmic voice:

"Om mani padme hum..."

Each syllable seemed to carry a strange magic, echoing and resonating in the empty underground space. At first, the sound was not loud, but it reached Saeki Kaori's ears clearly, and her mind, which was confused by extreme shame, anger and fear, could not help but be attracted by it.

As the spell continued, a faint golden halo began to emanate from Xiuyuan's body. It was not dazzling, but carried an indescribable majesty and sacredness.

The sound of his chanting gradually became louder and louder, like the sound of a huge bell, shaking the entire space.

Saeki Kaori, who was hanging in the air, was horrified to find that with the chanting of the spell, countless complex and mysterious golden runes began to appear on the surrounding stone walls.

Those runes seemed like living things, condensing from the void and then deeply imprinted into the rough rock wall. Each rune emitted powerful energy fluctuations, which made her feel instinctively afraid.

The golden runes became more and more numerous and brighter, and finally connected into one, illuminating the entire underground space like a Buddhist pure land.

The original dark and damp atmosphere was swept away, replaced by a pure, solemn and inviolable aura.

Kaori Saeki was completely stunned.

What is this? A magic circle? A barrier? A miracle?!

Although she had come into contact with some supernatural events and even developed a morbid desire for power, the scene before her completely exceeded her cognitive limits.

It is not just a display of strength, but also a manifestation of rules, a state where words are followed by laws!

The extreme humiliation and despair brought by the golden holy water just now were replaced by an even stronger emotion at this moment, a fanatical desire for this great power!

As a fan of the supernatural, she instantly understood what this meant.

This extremely young monk is not an ordinary exorcist at all. He is a being who truly possesses extraordinary powers!

Compared with this power, humiliation, pain, and even dignity become insignificant!

"I...I was wrong! Master! I was really wrong!"

Kaori Saeki could no longer control herself and began to struggle desperately.

The invisible Buddha power chains did not move at all. She could only twist her body in vain, trying to attract the attention of the god-like existence below.

"Please! Teach me! Teach me this! I'm willing! I'll do anything!"

Her voice became hoarse and unpleasant due to excitement and effort, but it was filled with unprecedented eagerness and flattery.

"I can completely submit to you! I'll do anything for you! I can drink that golden holy water every day! No, I'm willing to drink it every day! As long as you're willing to teach me! Please!"

She made incoherent promises, treating the humiliation that had just made her feel worse than death as the biggest bargaining chip she could offer at the moment.

She was like a hungry dog ​​that saw a bone, wagging her tail and begging for mercy, just to get a few leftovers.

However, Xiuyuan turned a deaf ear to her hysterical pleas and loyalty.

He continued to recite the scriptures with his eyes closed, his expression solemn and dignified, as if everything around him, including the ugly woman in mid-air, were nothing but illusions and not worth his attention.

His purpose was only to strengthen the barrier of this place, conceal the aura of the earth vein nodes, and prevent the invasion of external evil.

As for whether her confession was true or false, whether she was truly surrendering or just following the trend, it meant nothing to him.

When the last mantra fell, the golden light in the room reached its peak, and then slowly retreated and disappeared into the wall, leaving only a faint Buddhist rhythm flowing.

The barrier has been established.

Xiuyuan then opened his eyes, stood up, and brushed off the non-existent dust on his monk's robe.

He didn't even look at Saeki Kaori again, as if she was really just an insignificant object.
