Chapter 124 The One Hundred and Nine Names of Xiawei Temple

During the day and a half that Yu Naixin entered the special memory illusion, the butter flower monk was constantly blaming himself for the possible death or injury that this female benefactor might suffer.

But Yu Naixin told him that he had actually been instinctively protecting people without his knowledge!

Yu Naixin's words were brief, but the butter monk could sense her true intention.

Even Yu Naixin, who could only be considered a half-participant, could so clearly feel the effects of what he did. So those who were actually there at the time could only have felt even more!

In other words, during his time on the plateau, he was not simply committing murder; he had actually unconsciously done everything he could.

These actions, at the very least, prevented the resentment of those who died with hatred from affecting more people, thus avoiding a lot of unnecessary casualties!

The butter sculpture monk: "...!!!"

The monk's pupils trembled violently, his lips opened and closed in a trembling voice, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't utter a single word because he was too excited.

【Huh? The butter monk is crying?!】

[Wow, this is so sudden! The female guest just mentioned that she wasn't affected by the resentment in the special memory illusion, so why is the monk so agitated? Even if he wanted to show concern for the female guest and win her favor, this is just too over-the-top!]

[The people in front are clearly new viewers. The butter monk is practically invisible in front of the female guest; she's practically watched him grow up, so there's no need for him to put on any special act.]

[Many people probably didn't finish reading the contents of the illusion. The Great Demon King was actually telling the Butterfly Monk in a very subtle way that he wasn't as bad as he thought.]

Time and again he tried to lend a helping hand to save those Xingchan from the abyss, but in the end he couldn't save even one of them. In fact, he even implicated more Xingchan who shouldn't have become sacrificial "materials" so early. This was the nightmare that the Butter Flower Monk could not escape for countless days and nights, and it was also the unsolvable inner demon that he had been struggling with for so long.

He thought he could only bring disaster to others, but he never expected that... that he had also truly saved others.

Instead of pushing them from one hell to another fire pit.

Realizing this, the butter monk felt a lump in his throat and couldn't help but burst into tears.

If Yu Naixin hadn't taken such a huge risk and insisted on going to his special memory illusion, he might never have known about this until he died as he wished.

The monk, amidst a mix of emotions and surging feelings, felt an indescribable sense of relief and joy, and his gratitude towards Yu Naixin grew ever clearer.

"Thank you..." The butter monk's vision was completely blurred with tears. He bowed deeply towards Yu Naixin, his head lowered, his voice choked with sobs, "Thank you...!!"

The butter-flower monk was not a man of few words, but at this moment, facing Yu Naixin, he could only utter these three words over and over again.

The monk with the butter flower bowed so deeply at the end of the first simulation of Yu Naixin's episode.

Unlike the last time when the butter flower monk begged so humbly, this time he simply expressed his gratitude.

Yu Naixin smiled and did not avoid the grand gesture.

Then, Yu Naixin stretched out her hands and lifted up the butter flower monk's arms, making him stand up straight again: "Since the master is so grateful to me, please do me a favor."

The monk, who made butter sculptures, readily agreed: "This humble monk will do his utmost!"

The butter-flower monk had no idea what Yu Naixin would bring up.

However, he had already decided that no matter what Yu Naixin said, he would do everything in his power to help her achieve her goal.

Regardless of the cost.

[OMG! Although "Heartbeat 1000%" has never had a feature to display the real-time affection levels of the guest contestants, it's clearly visible that the monk's affection for the female guest is skyrocketing!]

[Congratulations to the female guest on the show "Heartbeat 1000%"! You have received 6 Sweet Coins from a viewer with the ID "Sleepyhead"!]

[This seems to be the first time the little witch has been so gentle with the guests on the show, right? It's such a contrast to her strong and domineering side, but it's also so charming and attractive!]

[I feel like if the female guest asked the male guest to go up to the sky and pick stars and the moon right now, he would definitely go, hahaha.]

[Congratulations to the female guest on the show "Heartbeat 1000%"! You have received 2 Sweet Coins from a viewer with the ID "Old-Fashioned Love Brain"!]

Under the solemn yet slightly nervous gaze of the butter-flower monk, Yu Naixin tilted her head and said with a smile, "Take me to pay my respects to the 109 ancestors on the screen wall."

The front and back courtyards of Xiawei Temple are separated by a huge screen wall made of jade.

The buildings and scenery in the temple that are not made of bluestone were basically created by the butter sculpture monks, and this screen wall is no exception.

During the second simulation, when Yu Naixin sat on the headless stone ghost's shoulder to go to the backyard, she carefully observed the screen wall and found that it was covered with Tibetan phrases, totaling 109.

At the time, Yu Naixin didn't quite understand the meaning of these words, but after fully experiencing the past of the butter flower monks "outside," she knew that the butter flower monks had specially engraved the names of the 109 sacrificed monks of Nizhu Temple on the screen wall.

This includes the 94 butter flower monks who tried to save Xingchan, the five Xingchan who were initially chosen by the monks of Nizhu Monastery, and the ten Xingchan who died during the rituals presided over by the new abbot after the butter flower monks left Nizhu Monastery.

Xingchan, the 94 monks who had heard him speak in his butter sculpture form, who had followed his requests to offer their fingers, and who had attempted to escape according to his instructions, were all known by name.

The monks had inquired about all the other fifteen Xingchan monks, but Xingchan's life was worthless in Nizhu Monastery. Even after death, they left little trace. Many Xingchan's names were simply lowly names like animal excrement, similar to the Chinese name "Dog Egg".

These humble names are very common. In order to distinguish them, the butter flower monks would deliberately add some qualifiers before the names, using the personal characteristics of the monks to refine them, such as "so-and-so with a scar on his left eye" or "so-and-so with a limp in his right leg".

Since it was impossible to obtain Xingchan's name, the butter flower monk also used this kind of reference to write and record.

All 109 Tibetan names were carved by the butter sculpture monks, stroke by stroke.

He has never forgotten any of them.

Yu Naixin had not seen any clear fragments of such subtle details in the butter flower monk's memory, but during special memory illusions, Yu Naixin sensed more than once that the butter flower monk wanted to commemorate the 109 tragic and innocent lives.

By combining this information with the inscriptions on the screen wall, Yu Naixin deduced the truth behind it.

Butter Monk: "...!?"

The butter-flower monk had lost count of how many times he had been astonished and shocked by Yu Naixin's words in this short period of time.

She actually knew about the names on the screen wall.

The butter-flower monk looked at Yu Naixin, this mysterious and unpredictable female benefactor, and it seemed that nothing could be hidden from her.

Yu Naixin, who possesses abilities far beyond those of ordinary people, actually took the initiative to suggest that he should pay tribute to those lives that no one else, except him, might have long been forgotten.

In the heart of the butter flower monk, Yu Naixin was already a radiant figure, and even more so, she shone with a holy and benevolent light.

It became increasingly...dazzling.

With a slight bow, the butter-flower monk once again avoided Yu Naixin's gaze and turned to lead the way for her: "Benefactor Yu, please follow this humble monk."

【?! Did I see that right? Did the butter monk blush again?!】

[The guests in this episode are so innocent and cute!]

[Congratulations to the female guest on the show "Heartbeat 1000%"! You have received 5 Sweet Coins from a viewer with the ID "didida"!]

[I bet a sweet coin that it's only a matter of time before this male guest develops strong feelings for the "Big Boss"!]

[I remember there were many analytical viewers in the live stream for this episode. Could someone please explain what the female guest meant by "109 predecessors"? I've been thinking about it for ages and still can't figure it out. Where did such a specific number as 109 come from?]

Following behind the monk who made butter sculptures, Yu Naixin once again walked to the screen wall.

Yu Naixin had walked around the screen wall quite a bit before, and knew that there was nothing else there.

She directly asked the butter flower monk for incense sticks, incense burners, and other items, and set up a simple but complete small offering table.

Anyway, for the butter flower monks, sculpting these objects is a matter of minutes, and they can do it very easily.

Then, Yu Naixin carefully lit the incense sticks, closed her eyes and bowed three times to the screen wall, before meticulously inserting the incense sticks into the incense burner.

She is also a witness to the deaths of these innocent lives, and she hopes that they can live peacefully and happily in another unknown world.

The wisps of smoke enveloped Yu Naixin and the butter-flower monk.

This screen wall has always been a painful secret buried deep in the heart of the butter flower monk. He never thought that one day, someone would come to commemorate these lost souls with him.

In the hazy white breath, the butter-flower monk felt a strong urge to confide for the first time, wanting to tell Yu Naixin about his past outside the illusion.

After all, judging from Benefactor Yu's appearance, he seems to be quite interested in these things?

“When I arrived at this venue,” the butter flower monk tentatively recounted, “there was only a dilapidated mess here.”

"On the broken bluestone floor, there are scattered bluestone foundations. All the buildings on the foundations have vanished. It can only be barely discerned from some broken pieces that this place should have been a temple."

"In my humble opinion, this temple must have been destroyed by vicious bandits."
