Chapter 93 The Master of Xiawei Temple's orders are of the highest priority.
[What?! The little witch's expression...did she discover something?!]
[Can any of the experts in the live stream analyze and explain this? My brain is completely stuck, so I can only ask for your help!]
[No matter how influential someone is, they can't compare to the female guest. One is experiencing everything firsthand, while the other can only watch from a screen; the information gap is severe. Besides, if someone truly understood everything, would they even need to be a "viewer"?]
[Damn, hahaha, this is hellish, but it makes so much sense, hahaha.]
The first thing Yu Naixin noticed was a somewhat familiar, light fragrance.
After a moment's thought, Yu Naixin remembered that the scent was exactly the same as the smell of linden leaves she had previously caught in the yard.
Because the three Bodhi trees were so pleasing to the eye and very beautiful, and were the only vibrant colors in the entire courtyard, Yu Naixin lingered under the trees for quite some time, admiring them attentively.
With Yu Naixin's keen sense of perception, remembering the faint fragrance emanating from the leaves of the Bodhi tree is not difficult at all. However, there is always a certain difference between the smell and the taste.
Yu Naixin also used all her senses to make an accurate judgment in an instant.
The leaves of the linden tree are edible, which is within Yu Naixin's knowledge. They are not toxic and contain bioflavonoids, which can have a calming effect.
This aligns perfectly with the Bodhi tree's status as a sacred tree in Buddhism.
Something that wasn't in breakfast or lunch suddenly appears in dinner—this is unusual and something fishy must be going on.
However, Yu Naixin didn't notice anything unusual about the three Bodhi trees in the yard. For now, she could only guess what changes might occur after they were made into vegetarian food.
As Yu Naixin continued to savor her bowl of mushroom, wood ear, and tofu skin noodles, she discovered other unique flavors.
The problem still lies in the broth, and the water used is also slightly different from the previous two vegetarian meals.
This part is even fainter than the fragrance of Bodhi leaves. Yu Naixin couldn't find the corresponding item in any of the "Xiawei Temple" program segments she had encountered so far, and she didn't know what it was.
However, the presence of these two unusual additives is enough to indicate that the butter monk will definitely take action tonight.
Unaware of what was happening, Yu Naixin slowly finished her bowl of noodles. As expected, she found that unlike the vegetarian meal at noon, she didn't receive any extra spiritual energy after eating.
The butter-flower monk didn't really want her, the guest on the show, to have much energy tonight.
[I feel like I'm gradually starting to like Little Witch's mukbang videos. Not only is she flawless in appearance, but her eating manners are also elegant and graceful, yet incredibly appetizing. Watching them repeatedly is truly addictive!]
Indeed, these vegetarian meals look delicious, with a natural and healthy feel, like a lotus emerging from clear water. However, the female guest seemed to think the taste wasn't that great, hahaha.
The female guest handed her used dishes to that NPC again. I recognize him; he's the one who collected all the dishes for all three meals today!
This time, he even went directly to the Demon King to ask for it. The previous two times, the Demon King had come to him in the courtyard. Sure enough, there were some anomalies in the temple after nightfall, which directly affected the NPCs' actions.
Yu Naixin did not expect that Monk Bing would come to her room door on his own initiative, knock twice and ask her if she had finished dinner. He wanted to take Yu Naixin's tray.
Yu Naixin ate quite slowly during this meal; when Monk Bing arrived, she still had a small half-bowl left unfinished.
Through the door, Monk Bing seemed to realize that Yu Naixin was still eating, and said, "Benefactor, there is no need to be anxious. I will come back in half an hour."
Finally, Monk C added a reminder: "It's difficult to see at night, and you're prone to injury. It's best if you don't go out."
This clearly tells Yu Naixin that there is danger in the courtyard of Xiawei Temple at night.
Yu Naixin agreed and did as she was told.
After handing the tray to Monk Bing, who was visiting for the second time, Yu Naixin immediately gave orders in her mind to the priest's folding fan and paper dog.
"If anything happens to me later, remember to restore my self-awareness as soon as possible."
"The means are limited to calling me through the consciousness channel."
"Unless the Butter Flower Monk intends to hunt me down and devour me, I will remain hidden and not reveal myself."
"Remember to carefully observe the movements of everything and everyone around you during this period, including the butter flower monks, and report back to me in detail after I regain consciousness."
Bodhi tree leaves are often used to make tea, which is believed to have calming and sleep-inducing effects.
Yu Naixin estimated that she would fall into a coma in a little while.
The reason she didn't let the priest use the folding fan and paper dog easily was, of course, because her main purpose in this simulation was to gather information.
When she, the guest on the show, is anesthetized and falls into a deep sleep, losing all ability to resist and becoming a sitting duck, this guest, the Butter Flower Monk, will surely reveal many unknown faces.
[If we can't go out at night, does that mean we just have to wait until tomorrow's ritual to unlock the new area?]
That would be too passive. Danger often comes with opportunity, and this female guest is not one to shy away from taking risks.
[Given the little witch's style, she's definitely going out to cause trouble.]
[Um, are you sure? The female guest doesn't seem to be planning on leaving the house at all.]
[She was even yawning more and more frequently... Damn, the female guest could barely keep her eyes open, so she went to sit against the wall on the bed!]
【?! No way, she's really asleep?!】
Three hours after finishing her evening vegetarian meal, the additives in the noodle soup took full effect, and Yu Naixin felt increasingly drowsy and her consciousness became increasingly blurred.
The process was swift and intense. Even with Yu Naixin's terrifying perception, her mind began to wander the moment she noticed it, and she was unable to think effectively.
She relied solely on her physical instincts, staggering to the edge of the bed and then placing herself on it.
In the instant before she completely lost consciousness, Yu Naixin's thoughts were fragmented: "This bowl of noodles is incredibly potent."
The spiritual power coefficients of the two guests were not significantly different; the butter flower monk was only slightly higher than her. So why did he possess such powerful means to deal with her?
This is unreasonable and does not conform to the overall balance principle of "Heartbeat 1000%" which favors the program's guests.
But Yu Naixin couldn't think of anything more.
Her body, which was leaning against the headboard wall, slumped to the side, and she completely lost consciousness, collapsing onto the bed.
[It's not even 10 PM yet! She's a new guest on "Heartbeat 1000%" for only a short time; her sleep schedule couldn't have changed that much so quickly. How many young people on Earth are asleep at this hour?! Even putting that aside, she slept for several hours this afternoon, so why is she so sleepy now?!]
[If there isn't any other hidden information that we, the audience, cannot know, then something must have been tampered with during the evening's vegetarian meal. The fact that the previous two vegetarian meals didn't elicit this reaction from the female guest could be because the dosage wasn't high enough, or it could be two harmless preludes designed to lull her into a false sense of security.]
[Wow, I'm totally dumbfounded! Even the experts in the comments section can figure this out, how could this female guest not realize it? She just took the bait without doing anything?!]
[Don't rush to conclusions. The Great Demon King is probably deliberately luring us out. Don't forget, she possesses two special magical artifacts: a folding fan and a paper dog. Based on her actions in the last dungeon episode, she should have already released these two artifacts out of our sight to keep watch around her. Since they haven't made any moves, things are definitely still under the Great Demon King's control.]
After the vegetarian meal took effect, the butter-flower monk did not arrive immediately.
The male guest maintained his usual patience from the daytime, and after nearly three hours, as the time approached the early hours of the next day, the figure of the butter monk finally appeared at the door of the private room.
Like a ghost, the butter-flower monk was completely unhindered by the architecture, passing directly through the wall and walking to Yu Naixin's bedside.
[Holy crap! That startled me! How did it suddenly appear without any sound?!]
[Finally, we can see the perspectives of the other guests besides the female guest. Previously, the butter flower monk was hiding in an unopened area, and if the live stream was switched to his perspective, it was just a thick, motionless gray fog. The other male guest, the headless stone ghost, hasn't even had a proper interaction with the female guest yet, so we don't have his perspective at all.]
On the table in the side room was a candle for lighting. The light was not bright. When the monk who made butter sculptures walked in, his robes stirred a breeze, causing the candle flame to flicker violently and the light to become even more unstable.
The butter-flower monk stood in the flickering light, one hand held in front of his chest, quietly watching Yu Naixin, who was lying on the bed with most of her body down.
He didn't speak or make any other movements, remaining like a statue, with only a hint of pity in his eyes.
After a long silence, the butter-flower monk sighed softly and said to Yu Naixin in a low voice, "Benefactor Yu, I apologize."
Then, the butter monk stretched out his hands, bent down, put one arm around Yu Naixin's shoulder and the other under her knees, and lifted her up horizontally.
Light and delicate.
A handsome young monk, with a tall and upright figure, carried a petite girl in his arms, and together they passed through the wall and out of the room.
Almost the instant the butter-flower monk's hand touched Yu Naixin, the paper dog hidden in the shadows at the foot of the bed couldn't help but bar its teeth fiercely.
Where did this wild man come from? How dare he touch his master with his filthy hands?!
However, the master's command is the highest priority, and no matter how angry the paper dog was, it still obeyed Yu Naixin's request and did not show itself.
However, it chased after it at top speed, following the shadows and corners.
