Chapter 91: Sudden Change!

~7 min read 1,318 words

Under his gaze, Jiang Liuxue actually walked forward,

and grabbed a stick of incense placed beside the altar!

Under Ding Mo's surprised gaze, she lit the incense and offered it upon the spirit altar, while pressing her palms together and praying in her heart:

"Whatever it may be, please guide us... I don't want to cause the deaths of others anymore."

Above the spirit altar, the Buddha sat majestically and compassionately in place, looking down at the masses below, seemingly without any reaction.

As the chanting added itself to the figure, amidst the curling incense smoke, the Buddha's body seemed as real as it was dreamlike...

After finishing her prayer, Jiang Liuxue raised her head and stared at the Buddha—not knowing if it was an illusion or if it had always been this way,

in a daze, she felt as if the finger of the hand seal on this Buddha statue was faintly pointing at her!

But soon, she hurriedly shook her head:

"The hand seal was originally like this; it's just that I want to end all of this too much..."

!!?

Opening her eyes, Jiang Liuxue looked at her surroundings in surprise.

Where is this?

What met her eyes was an abnormally dark space.

On the left, hundreds of candles formed a circle of light, illuminating a black water vat in the center,

and Qin Yifei was kneeling inside the water vat.

At this moment, seemingly sensing Jiang Liuxue's gaze, he raised his head, revealing skin filled with black, sesame-like particles!

Jiang Liuxue shuddered all over.

Those black stains, like tiny sesame seeds, were embedded one by one into Qin Yifei's face, neck, and arms, filling every pore of his body!

Millions of black stains were even still continuously overflowing from Qin Yifei's mouth and nose!

Qin Yifei glanced at Jiang Liuxue, then lowered his head, continuing to wash away these stains that kept emerging and clogging every one of his pores.

Although she saw no movement, the illusory sound of screaming still pierced sharply into Jiang Liuxue's ears!

Jiang Liuxue's scalp went numb, and she looked away in terror.

Another dream, and the next one... is Qin Yifei?

But she immediately discovered that things were not that simple!

Because after she looked away, she discovered another person in this space!

It was Zhou Lan!

At this moment, sparse, pitch-black coarse hair grew all over her body, and her limbs, including her head, were inverted on the ground, the whole person crawling around like a four-legged spider! She was emitting terrifying howls!

It wasn't just her; there were also Zhu Dechang and Ding Mo.

The former's head was covered in ears, and he was crawling on the ground, using both hands to desperately cover his ears, seemingly enduring some kind of painful torture.

But a pair of hands could not cover so many ears at all!

The latter, Ding Mo, was crawling out from a cracked Buddha statue, a strange smile on his face!

One, two, three... countless strange "Ding Mos" were continuously crawling out from the Buddha statue, scattering like cockroaches!

... Madness!

The scene containing intense fear struck Jiang Liuxue's mind until it was a blank slate.

Everyone is mad!

This world is mad!

Why? She had clearly prayed to the Buddha, yet it resulted in this?

Could it be... that the Buddha of this world is different from the one in their original world, and they are all insane "Evil Gods"?

Finally, the intense shock caused her brain to seem unable to bear it any longer, and Jiang Liuxue struggled, wanting to wake up.

But only then did she discover that she was tied to a rack, unable to move.

Lowering her head, her gaze crossed over her towering peaks,

and Jiang Liuxue was stunned to discover a thick, black iron spear standing directly beneath her!

The rust-covered spearhead was pointed right at her, and even before the sharp tip struck, the invisible sharpness made her skin ache!

As soon as she broke free from her restraints and fell, she would be pierced through.

"No..." The immense, immersive fear overwhelmed her, and Jiang Liuxue's tears fell uncontrollably as she shouted helplessly.

However...

At this moment, a bell suddenly rang out.

Dong—!

It seemed to be rushing over from an extremely distant place; the heavy sound of the Buddhist bell echoed in waves, growing ever more powerful,

and soon, the sound waves shattered everything!

"... Ah!!!" Jiang Liuxue screamed in terror, and like someone touching high-voltage electricity, she bolted upright from the bed!

Cold sweat poured like rain, her clothes clinging to her trembling, delicate body; a gust of wind blew, making her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar while soaked.

"You're finally awake." Ding Mo's voice came from the side.

Jiang Liuxue turned her head and found Ding Mo sitting by the bed, looking at her with some concern.

"I... what happened?" Jiang Liuxue had not yet regained her calm, her voice filled with fear.

However, Ding Mo's presence, for some reason, made her feel a little more at ease.

"You entered a dream again." Ding Mo glanced at her, his expression somewhat grave.

"No matter how I called you, you wouldn't wake up.

"And after you fainted in the hall, the Abbot locked us all up."

"What?" Upon hearing this, Jiang Liuxue finally noticed that this room was much larger than their own.

Moreover, there were actually other people in the room, namely Qin Yifei, Zhou Lan, and the suit Zhu Dechang had left on a chair.

The bathroom door was closed; he himself should be inside.

The room's main door was locked tight, its surface peeling from age.

"This seems to be the backyard of the 'Guangming Baodian'," Ding Mo continued to explain.

He scrutinized Jiang Liuxue, whose face was as white as a sheet, and said:

"Perhaps having sensed some anomaly, the Abbot seems to want to send us all into the 'Guangming Baodian' tomorrow to face judgment."

"..."

The massive amount of information left Jiang Liuxue's mind a muddled mess; she clutched her head and said with some pain:

"Listen, I..."

"You had another nightmare?" Zhou Lan interrupted her, saying with a mix of anger and sorrow:

"Fine, you bitch! Go ahead, let's see whose turn it is tomorrow!!"

Her words left everyone in silence, their gazes all gathering on Jiang Liuxue.

"I, I..." Jiang Liuxue's gaze swept across everyone, not knowing how to begin.

But in the end, the uncontrollable fear in her heart still made her break down and blurt out that terrifying thing:

"All of us... will die!"

After saying this, Jiang Liuxue could not help but recall that black iron spear covered in rust spots—unlike what the others heard when she recounted it, the visceral, lifelike sensation in her dream,

caused her fear to be magnified almost infinitely!

This made her hug her arms tightly, her legs trembling.

At the same time, her words shocked everyone!

Ding Mo's breath hitched.

"You saw that we all died!?" Qin Yifei was both shocked and furious!

"What kind of hellish joke is this?"

Zhou Lan's expression also changed completely; just a moment ago she had appeared resigned to her fate, but now that it was truly her turn, she couldn't hold it together.

"Ahhhhh, you slut, you are a base, lewd slut!" Zhou Lan rushed up all at once and grabbed Jiang Liuxue's hair.

Jiang Liuxue seemed to be in a state of fearful collapse at this moment and did not resist as she had the last time.

"Hey!!" Seeing this, Ding Mo snapped back to his senses, watching Zhou Lan desperately pull at the hair of the sobbing Jiang Liuxue,

and could not help but frown.

This woman named Zhou Lan not only failed to provide any help, but she also caused trouble time and time again;

is she worried there isn't enough trouble already?
