Zhang Meng sighed, feeling a surge of regret at the thought of having roasted the person into a charred corpse. "What a pity he's already dead!"
Old Master Liao looked at her in surprise. "Dead! How could he be dead? Although I have never dealt with this Master Meng, his abilities are quite real. How could he be dead?"
Thinking of Master Meng's death, Zhang Meng said regretfully, "When he forced the stone box open, he sucked in the contents and turned into a zombie. We had no choice but to kill him!"
After hearing this, Mr. Liao also looked regretful.
"Okay, let's not talk about Master Meng. Let's talk about the living heart. Have you seen the living heart? What does it look like?" Monk Jingchen said quickly.
Zhang Meng thought of the living heart again, and immediately felt a little uncomfortable all over. She didn't want to mention it, and her tone seemed a little perfunctory. "How else can a heart look? Isn't it just like our hearts, blood red?"
Monk Jingchen immediately looked at Old Man Liao and shouted at him with a serious expression, "Old Man Liao, did you hear that? A blood-red heart!"
Old Master Liao scratched his ears and angrily replied to Monk Jingchen, "I heard it, I heard it. Do you think I'm deaf? You guys were talking so loudly just now, and I was sitting so close to you, how could I not hear you?"
Monk Jingchen immediately sat down next to him. It was rare for the two old men to sit so close to each other. "Old Liao, it seems that the legend is true. You must stop the person above from opening the stone box. Do you hear me?"
Mr. Liao's expression also became serious at this time. "I know. Even if you don't remind me about this matter, I will tell them."
Monk Jingchen stroked his beard and quickly waved his hand, urging him, "Why don't you go quickly? Make a phone call quickly, or else something serious will happen and it will be disastrous."
Mr. Liao sighed and stood up. "I know, I know. I'll make a call right away."
As soon as Mr. Liao left, the young couple immediately looked over to Monk Jingchen, who was muttering to himself. Gu Mingtai was the first to ask Monk Jingchen, "Master, you know what that heart is, right?"
Monk Jingchen glanced at his disciple, then at Zhang Meng. His head seemed to weigh a thousand pounds as he slowly nodded. "Just so you know, there's a legend in our monastic community that says when a demon heart is born, the three realms will be overturned. If I'm not mistaken, the heart you're talking about is the demon heart mentioned in these two proverbs."
At this point, Monk Jingchen looked at the couple anxiously and asked, "By the way, where is the heart you just mentioned?"
Please, don't let his fears get to him. Zhang Meng replied, "It was taken away by Mr. Dong and his men, but from what I heard, it seems they want to take the heart for research!" "Oh my God, this really is what you fear."
Monk Jingchen immediately shouted, and the young couple was startled by his exaggerated appearance.
Gu Mingtai frowned slightly, "Master, what are you doing?"
Monk Jingchen didn't answer his question, but instead grabbed his arm tightly. "Disciple, hurry up and call that Dong or whatever, and tell them not to touch that heart. Do you hear me? If they do, something terrible will happen."
The young couple frowned at the same time.
Zhang Meng quickly looked towards Gu Mingtai and shouted worriedly, "Gu Mingtai!"
Gu Mingtai patted the back of her hand and said soothingly, "Don't worry, I'll go find Mr. Liao now and ask him to tell Mr. Dong."
"No need to notify me, they are already here!"
At this moment, Mr. Liao's serious voice sounded from outside the hall door.
When the young couple looked up, they saw that not only was Mr. Liao standing at the door, but there were also several soldiers in military uniforms standing behind him.
One of the men, whose uniform had a few more stars on its shoulders, walked up to Gu Mingtai and saluted him before speaking. "Comrade Gu, we're here on Elder Dong's orders to take you and Madam Ling to a place. It's urgent, so please come with us now, Gu Mianzhi and Madam Ling."
Zhang Meng immediately stood up and walked up to Gu Mingtai and shook his hand.
Gu Mingtai also shook her hand silently.
Then Zhang Meng heard his reply, "Got it, we'll go upstairs to get some stuff and then come back down to go with you guys!"
The officer nodded.
Gu Mingtai took Zhang Meng's hand and immediately looked over to Old Man Liao and Monk Jingchen. "Old Man Liao, Master, Xiao Meng and I will go upstairs to get some things. After we go out with them, please tell Xiao Meng and Grandma for me."
The two old men rarely agreed on this matter. Without waiting for Gu Mingtai to finish speaking, they immediately waved at them.
Monk Jingchen's tone sounded as if he was urging them to leave quickly. He waved his hand quickly, "I know, I know. I'll tell your grandmother for you. You guys should hurry and get back to your business!"
Gu Mingtai nodded, took Zhang Meng's hand and went upstairs.
In the hall downstairs, Mr. Liao and Monk Jingchen initially tried to inquire about the situation from these soldiers, but in the end they found that these soldiers were indeed Chinese soldiers, their mouths were as if sewn shut with needle and thread, and they could not get any useful information from them.
Seeing this, the two old men gave up the idea.
Soon, the young couple who were getting something upstairs came down.
