Chapter 67 Redemption
With these words, the oppressive feeling in the front hall dissipated, Zhang Yuanqing and Xie Lingxi were slightly relieved, and the sense of crisis of being stared at by hungry wolves was gone.

The woman at the front desk squinted her eyes, inspecting the young men and women across the table, and glanced at the outside of the hotel indiscriminately.

"I see, two guests, wait a moment."

She withdrew her gaze, left these words in a cold tone, and walked into the depths of the hotel, the sound of "clicking" high heels getting farther and farther away.

Phew. Xie Lingxi let out a breath, his little face turned pale, and said in a low voice:

"Brother Yuanshi, I, I suddenly remembered something"

Zhang Yuanqing looked sideways at her.

Xie Lingxi expressed his guess: "We haven't found any information about 'Master Wuhen'. Is there such a possibility? It's not that he is unknown, but that our authority is too low."

With such a terrifying coercion at the front desk, one can imagine what level that Wuhen master is.

Zhang Yuanqing nodded solemnly:

"I thought about it too, so I was planning to escape just now, and I am very confident in escaping."

"Ah?" Xie Lingxi was taken aback, and opened her eyes wide: "My legs were completely weak just now, and I didn't even have the idea of ​​running away. I just wanted to hide my head in your armpit."

That's why I have the confidence to escape. I just need to run faster than my teammates. Zhang Yuanqing cursed in his heart, he spread his arms, clamped Xie Lingxi's head in his armpit, and asked:
"Does this give you a sense of security?"

"Brother Yuanshi, let me go, let me go quickly, it's embarrassing." Xie Lingxi struggled hard.

She pulled her head out of Zhang Yuanqing's armpit, fixed the crooked headset, and lowered her voice:
"Brother Yuanshi, my earphones are props that can monitor all movements within a radius of 500 meters."

She listened attentively and whispered:
"The woman got into the elevator. The elevator stopped on the fourth floor. She opened the second door on the left side of the elevator. She disappeared?!"

Xie Lingxi raised his face and said in astonishment: "She disappeared."

Disappear?Is that the room that cuts off the prying eyes of the outside world?Zhang Yuanqing patted the little girl on the shoulder, signaling her to be calm.

The two waited silently. During the process, Xie Lingxi looked outside the hotel frequently to confirm that the bodyguards brought by his family had been watching him, and he felt a little safe in his heart.

About 10 minutes later, on one side of her head, she whispered, "She came out."

A few minutes later, Zhang Yuanqing heard the "ding" of the elevator, and the car returned to the first floor, and then the clatter of high-heeled shoes sounded, and the beautiful aunt returned to the front hall, looked at them, and said:

"Come with me!"

She glanced coldly at the dignified young people, and said, "If you are afraid, you can also go home."

Zhang Yuanqing said with a smile: "My sister has a kind face and a kind heart. She is a good person at first glance. We are not afraid."

Xie Lingxi said softly, "Auntie, we are just here to bring a message, there is no malice."

The woman's expression softened, she nodded slightly, and took them to the elevator to the fourth floor.

She stood in the corridor, looked towards the second room on the left side of the elevator, and said:
"go in."

Zhang Yuanqing saw the house number: 404!

Good name. He twitched the corner of his mouth, pulled Xie Lingxi to the door, and twisted the doorknob.

"Crack!"

The moment there was a slight click of the bolt, it seemed as if a quiet and powerful force enveloped him, and the scene in front of him changed rapidly.

The carpet in the corridor has turned into austere celadon, the whitewashed walls have become a mixed structure of brick and wood, and the incandescent lamps have become fluorescent candles.

Zhang Yuanqing and Xie Lingxi looked around in astonishment. They were in the main hall of a temple. The seven or eight-meter-high dome was a caisson with fretwork and embossed patterns, and the sky was full of gods and Buddhas.

Under the algae well is a five-meter-tall golden Buddha, with flowers and low eyebrows, with a demeanor of compassion, majesty, and sternness.

Eighteen thick candles were lit on the tribute table, and the candles were brightly lit.

There is a futon under the Buddha, on which sits cross-legged a monk in green clothes, tall and tall, just sitting cross-legged, he is as tall as Xie Lingxi.

Zhang Yuanqing and Xie Lingxi looked at each other quietly, with horror and solemnity in their eyes. One moment they were still in the corridor of the hotel, and the next moment they appeared in a strange temple.

If it weren't for the dungeon notification sound in their ears, both of them would have suspected that they had entered the spirit realm to do the task again.

This Master Wuhen is more terrifying than I imagined. He must be a spiritual practitioner of some level to have such means. Zhang Yuanqing took a deep breath, looked at the back in the blue robe, and said in a respectful tone:
"But Master Wuhen?"

"Night Tour God and Musician, are you from the official organization?"

A deep and hoarse voice came, with a strange tone, as if enduring some kind of pain.

"Yes!"

Zhang Yuanqing didn't dare to hide it.

There was silence in the hall for more than ten seconds, and the low and hoarse voice echoed again:

"Ashamed of being a father, what did you say before you died?"

Zhang Yuanqing's voice was subconsciously low, "He asked me to tell the master: I'm sorry, I still don't know, it's me, or this world that was wrong."

When he said this, he once again recalled the look in his father's eyes before his death, the eyes that shone with hatred and sorrow.

Once, the hall fell into a long silence, so silent that Zhang Yunqing and Xie Lingxi panicked.

Finally, Master Wuhen sighed:
"I see."

Xie Lingxi hesitated for a moment, then boldly asked in a low voice:
"Master, he has saved my life. He is not an evil person. Why, why did he become an evil profession?"

The cyan monk in robes said slowly:
"He used to have a daughter who was very smart and well-behaved, and her academic performance was very good since she was a child. When she was in college, she gradually changed and began to pursue material things. She blindly compared herself with her classmates. In order to support her daughter, she was ashamed to be a father and worked day and night to make money. , but more and more unable to meet his daughter's needs, until one day, he discovered that his daughter had borrowed a lot of money on the Internet and was photographed indecently.

"He was unable to repay those debts, and he felt that his daughter was ashamed and humiliated. The father and daughter had a big fight, and he threatened to sever the relationship between father and daughter. Ashamed to be a father, he thought that all this was the daughter's fault, and she became Worship money, become selfish, and become unrecognizable.

"Later, the lending company took control of the girl, forced her to start a skin business, played with her unscrupulously, abused her, and in desperation, she committed suicide by jumping off the building.

"Ashamed to be a father, he collapsed. He began to feel that he was the one who was wrong. If he could give his daughter a good material life, and if he could have money to repay her debts, all these tragedies would not have happened. He regretted the quarrel countless times, At that time, if he could comfort his daughter and accompany her, maybe there would be no later incidents. It was he who pushed her into the abyss with his own hands.

"After his daughter died, he planned to sue the money lending company and those villains who tortured and forced her to death, but the money lending company was very powerful in the local area, so he lost the lawsuit.

"He has been depressed for a long time, and realized that the fault is not his daughter, it is him, it is the world. He believes that people cannot change the environment, and people are affected by the environment. When this society screams material in your ears all day long, Shouting about money, you will definitely be affected, become money worshipers, and become materialistic, no one can be an exception.

"Her daughter hasn't entered the society yet, and doesn't understand the dangers of the human heart. She was induced to consume and borrow money, and finally embarked on this path of no return. The world is terrible, and he decided to avenge his daughter himself.
"He broke into the lending company, killed the villain who had bullied her and forced her to death, and then fled the scene. It was that killing that allowed him to obtain a character card and become a bewitching demon."

"Ashamed to be a father is a radical person, but he is not a bloodthirsty villain. However, once he becomes an evil profession, there is no turning back for life. more painful.

"Until one day, he met me, and he followed me to practice, hoping to resolve the anger in his heart and obtain redemption. But he was too extreme. He didn't want to kill innocent people indiscriminately, but he was stubbornly unwilling to reconcile with this world.

"Perhaps death is the best destination for him"

No wonder he wanted to save Xie Lingxi. His daughter was about the same age as this girl. He regretted countless times that he didn't give his daughter a hand. The one who threw himself was not Xie Lingxi, but Zhang Yuanqing, the daughter who committed suicide by jumping off the building back then. Xie Lingxi was speechless, his eyes were red.

He sighed silently and said:

"Master, I think he has been redeemed."

With his back to the two, Master Wuhen was noncommittal, waved his hand lightly, two gleams of light swam from his sleeves, and landed at the feet of Xie Lingxi and Zhang Yuanqing.

The two of them fixed their eyes and saw that there were two jet-black jade stones, half the size of a palm, with black gleams surging inside, changing into various shapes, like a dream.

After just watching for a few seconds, Xie Lingxi and Zhang Yuanqing felt that their eyes were darkened and they felt dizzy.

"Thank you for bringing back his last words. It's called 'Dream Tong Yu Talisman'. If you crush it, you can contact me. If you are in danger, I will help you once. It is limited to the real world, and it is invalid in the spiritual world." Wuhen The master said lightly:

"leave."

The Buddha statue and the candlelight twisted and shattered one after another. Zhang Yuanqing and Xie Lingxi returned to the hotel. They were standing in front of the open door, which was a standard single room.

There were two pieces of black jade lying at their feet.
