The Buddha said that there are eight sufferings in life, birth, old age, sickness, death, sorrow and sorrow, resentment and hatred, love and separation, and nothing you can ask for.

In ancient times, there was a monk named Anzhen from Kurama Temple who went to Kumano Holy Mountain every year to practice Buddhism, and would stop at a wealthy businessman on the way.

Qing Ji, the daughter of a wealthy businessman, gradually fell in love with this handsome monk during the reception year after year.

She boldly confessed to the monks, but An Zhen, who had decided to dedicate her life to Buddhism, never considered this aspect.Because he was afraid that Qing Ji would continue to pester him, he hastily lied, "After practicing, I will come back to reunite with you."

Qing Ji believed it was true, holding the Buddha statue he left for her and waiting at home idly.However, seven days have passed since Anzhen's promise of "at least three days, as many as seven days" before she left, but Anzhen has not come back for a long time.

She finally couldn't help going out to look for it. Everyone along the way told her that An Zhen had gone, and the promise she had waited for seemed to be just a lie told by the other party.Qing Ji, who was deceived by her lover, ignited the anger of resentment in her heart. She ran barefoot along An Zhen's route all the way, and finally caught up with An Zhen who was about to cross the river by the Rigao River.

However, after many days of pursuit, her former beauty has turned into a ghost. Anzhen was startled, and hurriedly fled to the last boat at the ferry and left downstream.

The resentment of not being able to ask for it and the despair of her lover seeing her as if seeing a ghost made the innocent girl in the past burn with resentment, and finally turned into a two-foot-long snake.She swam across the Rigao River and finally caught up with An Zhen who had been hiding in the ancient clock in Daocheng Temple to avoid her.

Her accumulated anger and unwillingness spewed out, and the big snake wrapped around the ancient clock spit out angry flames, and finally burned herself and An Zhen in the clock to death.

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, the girl took her ruthless lover to the underworld with her monstrous love, hatred and resentment.

"After Qing Ji and An Zhen died, the bell left behind was recast by the monks of Daocheng Temple."

Keito Matsuo stood in front of the altar, staring at the ancient clock on the table, "It still has Kiyohime's obsession in it, an obsession that can't be extinguished even if she turns into a demon."

"That's, that's fake." Ri Qingshui swallowed, she was both scared and a little dazed because of this strangely familiar story, "...it's just a legend."

"No, it's true." Keito Matsuo didn't know what to think, and his voice gradually lowered, "Another world exists, and people's obsession can indeed distort reality..."

"So, the Daocheng Temple Bell can indeed realize people's wishes! As long as the obsession is deep enough, it can turn people's expectations into reality!"

He suddenly turned around and looked at the woman in front of the altar with burning eyes, with a trace of obsession in his eyes, "Since that person can do it, Qing Shui, I will never lose my love for you to him, just wait a moment, I Get the real you back soon."

"No, you..." Ri Qingshui shuddered all over, and was startled back to his senses by the paranoid emotion in his words.She opened her mouth nervously, her mind was spinning rapidly, and a flattering smile appeared on her face at the same time, "Well, why do you have to use this method? Things like feelings can also be cultivated slowly. What I said just now I'm angry, but I actually have a crush on Matsuo-kun...don't be so anxious, we can take our time, can't we?"

Keito Matsuo was fixedly looking into her eyes, and Higosui immediately looked at him expectantly, a little admiration was forced out of the eyes glistening with tears.

However, that bit of admiration is too shoddy, even more fake than the tears faked by a third-rate actor dripping eye drops.

Keito Matsuo slowly raised the corners of his lips and smiled, "That's it, you've always been deceiving me like this, Shimizu."

The girl froze.

He gently stretched out his hands to straighten the girl's temples, and there was infinite love in his voice, "I was played around by you before because I was willing to be deceived by you. But now, you have to listen to me, you know?"

"My family has been looking for the bell of Daocheng Temple. The possibility of this Buddhist bell in the Five-Fang Pagoda is genuine is the greatest. I have already mastered the method of activating it. As long as it is exactly four o'clock in the morning, the bell of Daocheng Temple will be activated. Be fully activated, and when the time comes, you will be completely mine. So now, behave yourself, okay?"

His voice became softer and gentler, but the panic in Higao Qingshui's eyes became deeper and deeper, she wanted to say something more, but Matsuo's slender fingers suddenly moved down, and tapped her throat lightly.Then Shimizu realized that she could no longer make a sound, she stared at the man in front of her in shock, as if she knew him for the first time, then immediately remembered something, her gaze shifted urgently, and landed on the watch on her wrist.

The hands on the dial are slowly turning, they are not subject to any external interference, and they strictly push the time forward.The hour and minute hands pulled out an obtuse angle, and the needle tip inlaid with broken diamonds was infinitely close to the Roman numeral four on the edge of the dial.

"Click, click..."

On the tall tower, it seemed that even the wind had stopped, and the sound of time walking was suddenly very clear, stepping on their growing heartbeats step by step.

Ri Qingshui seemed to be driven to a dead end, her eyes swayed helplessly around the room, and finally fell on the little girl standing in the center of the formation by the wall, her eyes couldn't help but beseeching.

At that moment, she didn't know what she was thinking, probably because the other party was too calm, under the strange and crazy atmosphere in the room, she was the only one who looked like a normal person, watching this twisted and bloody show with cold eyes.

Just at this moment, Hidaka was shocked to find that the formation under the opponent's feet had a golden light.An invisible wind rose from the ground, blowing away the little girl's silver hair draped over her shoulders.The weird symbols floated up from the ground, flying around her as if they had self-awareness.At the same time, the blood characters on the ancient clock lit up.

The ominous red light and the golden light of the formation complement each other, suppressing the flickering candlelight.

In the glow, she watched Keito Matsuo kneel before the altar, reciting scriptures devoutly in a five-body posture.

The ancient clock on the altar table seemed to have a vibrating phantom, and the louder and louder the sound of the scriptures made her unconscious. She struggled to look down at the watch, and the slender second hand jumped forward one step at a time. One step forward and closer to the minute hand.

"Click, click, click..."

The blood-colored characters shine brightly together with the patterns.

It seemed that wind was blowing in from the window, and the candlelight in front of the altar shook violently.

"... click."

The minute and second hands coincide at twelve.

Ri Qingshui's heartbeat suddenly rose to the highest level, and the whole world seemed to stand still for a moment.

Four in the morning.

The red light and golden light were suddenly extinguished.

Nothing happened.

For a moment, the air was as quiet as dead.

"...What's going on?" In the dead silence of the room, Ri Qingshui, who was panting rapidly, was the first to speak blankly.

"I……"

She subconsciously looked at the figure kneeling in front of the altar like a stone sculpture, then looked down at her hands, and unexpectedly found that she could move.

"...impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible!"

In the next second, the altar was violently blown away, melons, fruits and joss sticks rolled all over the ground, and the tables, chairs and ground made violent noises. Ri Qingshui was startled, and looked tremblingly at jumping up without warning , like a man on the verge of madness.

His pupils were filled with red bloodshot eyes, and his handsome face was distorted to the point of ferocity.Like an enraged beast, he walked around the room panting heavily, repeating, "Those mysteries and legends clearly exist, why didn't I succeed, why?!"

He suddenly turned his head to stare at Ri Qingshui, the girl was startled by his devouring gaze, her hand supporting the ground softened, and she almost collapsed on the ground.Fortunately, the other party quickly retracted his gaze, and then slowly moved to the corner of the wall.

He stared at the little girl in the middle of the formation pattern, seemed to calm down again in an instant, and murmured thoughtfully, "Could it be that the spiritual power is not enough... just use the formation method to extract the child's spiritual power, which is a gentle method." Surely it won't work?"

"That man said that all success requires sacrifice... sacrifice..."

Repeating that word, his expression gradually twisted, as if he was in a violent struggle.Immediately afterwards, he turned his head and took a hard look at the girl who shrank in place and dared not speak, as if he had made up his mind. He turned his head, his dark pupils wiped out the last bit of humanity, he strode towards the little girl in the corner, stretched out His hand was like the twisted claws of a monster, grabbing at her.

"Wait, what are you going to do?" Reading some ominous meaning from his actions, Ri Gaoshui straightened up suddenly, ignoring his fear and rushed towards him and shouted, "Stop! That's just a Son, don't..."

However, as soon as she stumbled and rushed over, she was pushed and fell to the ground. Keito Matsuo turned her head, and madness was written in her red eyes, "Try again, I will try again, this time I will definitely be able to..."

"No, even if you try a hundred times again, you will not succeed."

The clear youthful voice suddenly sounded in the tower.

The two people who were entangled were startled at the same time, and subconsciously turned their heads to look over.

Accompanied by the sound of sneakers stepping on the wooden floor, a slender figure came out from the shadow of the prayer flags, with short black hair, and a sweater and jeans with a thin frame.The child who suddenly appeared here was too calm. He swept his cold and sharp eyes towards the corner of the wall, and confirmed that a worrying little silver-haired loli was standing against the wall, and he was still intact by visual inspection.He breathed a sigh of relief silently, and then turned his gaze to the two people in front of him.

"The reason why you are sure that the Buddhist bell of the Five-Fang Pagoda can fulfill your wish is not only to use certain methods to determine that this place is indeed special, but also because it has created a precedent, which is the legend of the Five-Fang Pagoda, right?"

His voice was calm and determined, "I asked the owner of the hotel, you have been here more than once, and you have lived in the town for a period of time, and asked people about the Five-Party Tower everywhere, just to confirm the authenticity of that story. "

Keito Matsuo: "... so what?"

As he spoke, he looked at the person with vigilant eyes.The strange black-haired boy put his hands in his pockets and walked towards the corner, his actions were calm and unhurried, not like a child at all.

His face is still soft and immature, but his aura is stronger and more mature than that of an adult. This weird contrast even gave Matsuo an illusion, as if the person talking to him here is not this seven A child who is not a year old, but a certain cold and powerful god, His Highness, came to the world for a short time through his body.

This recognition made him even subconsciously take a step back when the black-haired child approached, making way for him.

"It is said that the Buddhist bell of the Five-Fang Pagoda came from Daocheng Temple. You must have found out this. You believe that in the legend of the Five-Fang Pagoda, the young man must have found the correct way to open the bell of Daocheng Temple, so he finally succeeded in changing it." I have entered the 'reality' and married the woman I love deeply. From this, I am sure that this Buddhist clock is what you are looking for, and think that it can fulfill your wish."

Keito Matsuo looked at the black-haired child as if he had the ability to read minds, and in a cold tone, he turned out all the words in his heart, and walked to the little loli in the corner.He casually took his hand out of his pocket, covered her forehead, and then frowned slightly.

The man swallowed, feeling a little nervous, "So, so what? Why are you so sure I won't succeed?"

The black-haired child turned his head, glanced at him lightly, and said lightly, "Because that story is false."
