293 coins
◎Countless Buddhas are laughing crazily◎
The diary is not long, and it takes no more than a minute to read, but the amount of information it reveals is overwhelming.
Chen Qihang is obviously a person who lived before the spread of pollution. He may have investigated mysterious and unusual events in various places.
Zhu Ning has always been curious about the source of the pollution and whether it came suddenly or gradually.
What are the rules for taking investigative notes?
Zhu Ning felt a chill on the back of his neck, hoping that his action did not trigger the rules of Songshan Temple. If the notebook had to be opened in a specific location to trigger it, then the probability would be so low that it would be infuriating.
Boom——
Zhu Ning felt his heartbeat again and looked at the notebook again. The content on it had changed.
The handwritten words seemed to spread like ink, blurring and melting right before Zhu Ning's eyes, and new words emerged.
"My name is Chen Qihang, an investigator of unusual events..."
It was this sentence again, mental pollution repeated, and these words seemed to knock on Zhu Ning's mind one by one.
April 1, 2006.
"It all started when I saw a post on a forum about a tragic death at Songshan Temple. It was incredibly bizarre. Six people had gone there, seemingly meeting up with friends on the forum."
"In the end, they only found body parts scattered across the ground, but none of them belonged to those six people. They belonged to someone else. DNA analysis showed at least 30 people had died there, and that's when the matter became a big deal. The more they investigated, the more bizarre it became. They found more and more information about the dead, but those six people had vanished, as if they had evaporated and never existed."
Zhu Ning's hair stood on end when she saw this sentence. What she feared was coming true. The contents of Songshan Temple appeared in the notebook. Did she trigger a taboo?
That's impossible. If the contaminated area can only be awakened through notes, then this contaminated area is equivalent to targeting only a certain person.
Now that they are all open, I can only continue reading.
"I looked it up online. Songshan Temple is a thousand-year-old temple. Because it's built deep in the mountains, people stay in the temple in the summer to escape the heat, and Songshan Temple also receives guests. Some people say it's very spiritual and often go there to pray for peace and other things. I don't know if it's effective, and I don't believe it. What's interesting is that there's a rumor, or perhaps a curse, that if you hear the sound of copper coins or coins rolling in the temple, don't let it stop, or leave quickly if it doesn't stop. If it stops, you'll die."
"Some people suspect they are cursed by Songshan Temple. I plan to go and take a look..."
Zhu Ning's first reaction when she saw this was to prick up her ears and listen. Her five senses were not comparable to those of normal people. At that moment, the movements of other people slowed down in her eyes, and the first thing she heard was her own breathing.
Lin Xiaofeng was like a little animal sensing unknown danger, and he tightened his hands behind Zhu Ning.
Pei Shuben was bending down to pack the package when his body suddenly stiffened. Qi Xueliu frowned and looked up.
They are in an underground shelter, with Songshan Temple above them, so theoretically... their location is not actually in the temple?
But this way of thinking is a bit far-fetched. Maybe it would count even if it flew over Songshan Temple?
Those who have come out to struggle all believe in their sixth sense. At that time, Qi Xueliu used her sixth sense to determine that Pei Shu was hiding in the alley.
And if it is an illusion for one person, it is no longer an illusion when everyone perceives it together. They see vigilance in others.
Gurgle——
At this moment, a sound came from somewhere. While Zhu Ning was looking at her notes, she was still wondering how she knew what the sound of a coin rolling was.
But when it really happened, she found it very easy to identify. What was rolling was either copper coins or coins, a bit brittle, and it was impossible to tell the direction. It seemed to be upstairs, or in the wall. If you listen again, it seemed to be rolling at your feet. The rolling coins would brush past the toes of your shoes.
Pei Shu's first reaction was that it was over. When building any shelter, the first priority is to make it thick enough. The concrete walls must be poured and the top must be at least one meter thick. How could the sound of a rolling coin be heard?
And there won't be coins in the temple that start rolling for no apparent reason.
According to Pei Shu's experience, if the pollution in such a place is turned on, it will kill you.
Pei Shu was about to speak when Zhu Ning suddenly yelled, "Go before the coin stops!"
No matter what it is, it is definitely not something Zhu Ning can afford to offend now. She hasn't even grown legs yet, and she just finished the Mold City and hasn't even had time to catch her breath.
Gurgle——
The sound of the coin rolling continued. If Chen Qihang's notes were true, all he had to do was leave before the coin stopped rolling.
When she said this, the others immediately realized that they didn't have much time left.
Lin Xiaofeng carried Zhu Ning on her back. Her special ability was great strength. Although Zhu Ning seemed very light, he was not a fast-moving special ability user, so it was easy for him to widen the gap with others at this time.
Pei Shu had already run to the gate of the shelter, his fingers quickly operating on the keyboard, and immediately opened the door.
Zhu Ning's acceleration ability can only be used on herself and not on Lin Xiaofeng. Lin Xiaofeng is even more anxious than her.
At this moment, Zhu Ning suddenly felt a tightness on his back. Qi Xueliu slapped the body bag and actually lifted up Zhu Ning and Lin Xiaofeng.
Qi Xueliu and Pei Shu were experienced. They opened the door of the shelter and ran out immediately.
Their car stopped at the entrance to the shelter, and also on the floor of the ancient temple, statues collapsed. They had not moved when they were overturned before, and now a Buddha head rolled down, its face scratched.
Buddha statues are generally compassionate, but at this moment the corners of the statue's mouth were slightly raised to reveal a smile.
That smile couldn't be considered a smile, it was crazy. The whole place exuded a sense of madness. There was no sound, but one could seem to hear the laughter.
The Buddha statue was broken into pieces, and its remains were everywhere. There was not just one but countless Buddha statues laughing crazily.
Countless Buddhas are laughing crazily.
That smile seemed to have some fatal attraction, making people feel numb all over at a glance, and the corners of their mouths inadvertently curl up.
"Hehe——" Lin Xiaofeng realized that she was laughing after she laughed. The thing she was trained to do the most since she was a child was smile. She had all kinds of smiles, but never that kind of expression. The muscles of her entire face were tense, and her apple muscles were pulled up, as if they were going to break through the skin and squeeze her eyeballs to burst.
It turned out that the one laughing was not the statue, but Lin Xiaofeng himself.
Zhu Ning covered her eyes from behind, "Don't look!"
Not to mention Lin Xiaofeng, even Zhu Ning was a little affected. Her heartbeat was extremely abnormal, and the tentacles wriggling in her chest seemed to be responding to their own kind.
If he stayed any longer, Zhu Ning might die, but he would definitely go crazy.
Pei Shu and Qi Xueliu's eyes were red. They were experienced and had prepared themselves mentally. Pei Shu lowered his head and didn't look, but he could vaguely hear laughter, and he didn't know where it came from.
Pei Shu got into the passenger seat and tried to start the car.
Gurgle——
The sound of the coin rolling became slower and slower, like water being poured. One could tell by the sound when the water was full. They could also tell that the coin seemed to be about to stop.
Everyone realized that the sound could not stop, otherwise they would die.
They had to leave the area of Songshan Temple before the coin stopped.
Qi Xueliu threw the body bags in. Lin Xiaofeng's feet were hanging in the air, and he and Zhu Ning were tied up and thrown into the back seat like a buy-one-get-one-free package.
Pei Shu sat in the driver's seat and tried to start the car, but it wouldn't start after two attempts.
Qi Xueliu picked up the gun with one hand and pointed it out of the car window. The scene outside the car window had already changed. The broken statue was actually shaking slightly on the ground, like living meat.
There was probably no chance of winning against this thing with a gun, so raising the gun was just a psychological comfort.
"Light the fire!" Qi Xueliu couldn't help but yell at Pei Shu, treating him as her subordinate.
The sound of the coin rolling was so slow that it made people panic.
Pei Shu certainly knew that he had to light a fire, but this damn thing wouldn't light up and made a clicking sound.
Lin Xiaofeng got up and said, "Can I take a look?"
She knew how to repair cars and wanted to go get them fixed, but Pei Shu suddenly realized something and stopped her, "You're under the influence."
There was nothing wrong with the car; the problem was with Songshan Temple. They were within the boundaries of Songshan Temple, and invisible rules were restraining them.
Just like those ghost stories, if the fire can’t be started at the critical moment, it is most likely because an invisible ghost is interfering.
Gu——
The coins have almost stopped.
Suddenly, the whole car shook and floated up, and Zhu Ning's palms covered the roof of the car, making it look like she was holding up the car.
Zhu Ning has always been able to control the car, but it has never been so difficult. She has absolute strength within 20 meters, but now it seems like there is an invisible force pulling at her.
Pei Shu was right, it definitely had an impact. I controlled the car to move slowly, but it only moved one meter. It was too heavy.
Zhu Ning's complexion became worse and worse, her forehead was covered with cold sweat, and her teeth were chattering.
Suddenly, she felt the car was lighter, not suddenly, but like when you are carrying a box by yourself on a hot day, sweating profusely, and the box is too heavy and keeps sliding down, and then someone reaches out from behind to support it.
Qi Xueliu's special ability is mind control. Zhu Ning can only control metal but Qi Xueliu can control everything.
Even though Qi Xueliu's ability has not yet fully developed, it is still very useful. Zhu Ning felt that someone was taking some of the force. She raised her eyes and looked at the rearview mirror. Qi Xueliu was wearing a helmet and Zhu Ning could not see her expression.
Zhu Ning: "Right!"
Even if Qi Xueliu came over to lend a hand, she couldn't completely resolve the situation. The car body had been restrained by invisible forces. Now it was a gamble. There was not much point in flying upwards. They had to get out of the plane range of Songshan Temple as soon as possible.
Qi Xueliu closed her eyes and felt another force at the same time. They found a common direction.
The interior of the flying car was quiet for a second, and suddenly, the whole car was swung out like a pendulum, regardless of whether there was a wall or tree in front, and it kept swinging outward.
The car body collided with the wall of the ancient temple with a crackling sound, and pieces of gravel fell on the car windows one after another, as if it had been flooded by a mudslide.
The rear end of the car swung outward, and the people inside also tilted in one direction. Lin Xiaofeng's body was pressed against the door, as if a huge force was about to crush her. Even riding a roller coaster was not so exciting.
The car body was out of control and I couldn't see clearly, just like a washing machine spinning. In this situation, let alone hearing the sound of coins, even my brains almost flew out of my ears.
The flying car had a sturdy shell and crashed through the wall of the backyard of Songshan Temple. It couldn't stop due to inertia and kept spinning in the air.
Zhu Ning nearly lost his grip and yelled, "Stop!"
Pei Shu slammed on the brakes, and Qi Xueliu followed Zhu Ning's direction and tried hard, but this thing was like pulling a derailed train, and no matter how hard she tried, it was useless.
After smashing through a bunch of bushes, the speeding car hit a huge old tree. The front of the car was dented and the airbags in the car popped out.
Zhu Ning immediately opened the four car doors with metal controls. Needless to say, the others also knew that they had to jump out of the car. Lin Xiaofeng hugged Zhu Ning and rolled out.
With a loud bang——
After they rolled down, the front of the car exploded, and most of the back wall of Songshan Temple collapsed. It had burned once before, and now it was burning again. The crazy laughing Buddha statue was no longer visible through the flames and ruins, and there was no telling what was inside.
Zhu Ning got up coughing, feeling that she was really unlucky. She just went back to the temple to get something, why was she so unlucky?
Zhu Ning asked, "Has the coin-bucking sound stopped?"
Pei Shu: "I don't know."
They didn't care about the coins at all. They all kept silent. After listening for a long time, they didn't hear the sound of the coins, but the sound of a burning fire.
Bang! A part popped out from the front of the car, sparks flying.
The fire burned lavishly. Except for the notebook Zhu Ning held in his arms, all other medical equipment and weapons depot became fuel. When Pei Shu wanted to control the fire and stop it, it was too late.
With a loud bang, the weapons depot inside the car was ignited, and the car completely exploded and disintegrated.
The four of them watched the fire in silence, their faces flushed red. The main reason was that the fire was very expensive, so expensive that Zhu Ning felt the pain in his heart. They had no other choice but to watch.
The good news is that Zhu Ning should be free from the "curse" of Songshan Temple. The bad news is that her car is gone.
