Thriller Paradise

Today, there was no way to verify the exact date of the temple\'s construction, but the word "thousand years" should be more reliable. Whether it was the records of the outside world or the ancient scriptures and scrolls kept by the temple itself, they could all prove the long history of this temple.

As a building that had existed for more than 1000 years and was still being used by people, the Liuhe temple had undoubtedly been renovated many times. The number of minor cultivations that the monks spontaneously did on a daily basis was already uncountable, and in terms of major cultivation alone ... There were nineteen recorded. And the most recent one ... Was forty years ago.

At that time, Lotus Moon town was at its most stable and prosperous period. After decades of development and accumulation, the third generation of the refugees had caught up with a great year. Although it could not be said that there was not a single poor person in the entire town, there were indeed no people who slept on the streets, starved or frozen ...

As the saying goes ... When you have enough food and clothing, you will know about etiquette. Since the residents of Lotus Moon town had already gotten by in terms of material civilization, they naturally had the leisure to do some spiritual civilization construction.

In that era (the scenario was similar to ancient China\'s feudal society), it was impossible to summarize the eight honors and eight disgraces. Other than the traditional sense of propriety, justice, integrity, and shame, they could only talk about religious superstition.

Considering that the monks of the Liuhe temple had been kind to the townspeople\'s ancestors, and that the weather had been good in the town over the years, the townspeople planned to do something for the temple. First, they wanted to repay the kindness of the monks in the temple, and second, they wanted to thank God for his protection over the years.

So, forty years ago, after a negotiation between the then mayor of he Yue town and the abbot of Liuhe temple, the townspeople raised a sum of money and prepared to use the money to completely renovate the temple and rebuild the Golden bodies of many Buddha statues in the temple.

This was supposed to be a good thing, but the outcome was beyond everyone\'s expectations ...

…………

The renovation of a huge temple like Liuhe temple was a time-consuming project that required a large number of craftsmen and labor. It was obviously not enough with the manpower in Lotus Moon town. Fortunately ... There was still a surplus for the project funds. Therefore, the foreman in charge of the project had recruited a lot of manpower from the villages and towns around he Yue town.

That year, among the workers who came to repair the temple, there was a middle-aged stonemason from another village. This person\'s surname was Zhang, and his first name was ke. Although his parents had given him a very steady name, Zhang Ke\'s character seemed to be the opposite of the name. Not only was he not very cautious, but he was also particularly frivolous and nosy.

On a certain night forty years ago, Zhang Ke drank a few more cups in the town\'s winery. With the alcohol, he suddenly had an idea to explore the "stone courtyard Pagoda" in the six Harmonies temple ...

Speaking of the stone pagoda, it was indeed a mysterious place. There had been an iron rule in the six Harmonies temple since ancient times that no one was allowed to enter the stone courtyard of the temple, let alone step into the pagoda in the stone courtyard, except for the abbot.

Before the renovation of the temple, the abbot had repeatedly warned the mayor not to let anyone near the stone courtyard. And the mayor ... Also earnestly conveyed the Abbot\'s words to all the workers who participated in the repair work.

To be honest ... In the workers \'eyes, this was not a big deal. If it was a nunnery ... If you said there was a forbidden area, they might be interested in prying into it; But the forbidden area of this monk temple ... If you don\'t want to enter, then so be it. Do you expect to find a cultivation magic tool or a peerless secret manual by sneaking in?

However, there was one person who was particularly curious ... And that was Zhang Ke.

This guy was a typical Chuunibyou disease that had not been cured for a long time, and his personality was the kind of person who would lower his IQ and become extremely bold after two bowls of yellow soup. The more you don\'t allow him to go, the more he will go ... After he goes there, he will come back and brag about it. It\'s also very good to act like a hero in front of his peers.

However, we all know that a true hero ... More or less has something extraordinary about him, and he has "strength."

Some people could even walk on mountain roads in the dark and kill a ferocious first class protected animal with their bare hands after drinking a few catties of wine. Some people, after drinking a few catties of wine, could also walk in the dark, but in the end, they would slip and fall to their deaths in the ravine.

From Zhang Ke\'s performance in the past few decades of life ... He definitely belonged to the latter.

Therefore, when he left this time ... He was nowhere to be found, Dead or Alive.

…………

What exactly happened that night, only a few people knew. Outsiders only knew ... That after that night, no one had seen Zhang Ke again.

A few days later, the town mayor gave an explanation ... After getting drunk, Zhang Ke accidentally entered the forest and was eaten by wild beasts, leaving no corpse behind.

And this statement ... Naturally could not satisfy Zhang Ke\'s family. They quickly made a fuss at the government.

The first official administrative official of he Yue town was appointed by a Messenger sent by the Imperial court in the 15th year after the town was built. The person who was appointed was the mayor at the time. It was obvious that the Imperial court did not place much importance on the management of such a remote town. It was just going through the motions. The main purpose was to make this town officially under the government\'s jurisdiction, which would make it easier to collect taxes.

Later on, there was a more formal Yamen in the town, and the law was replaced by the code issued by the Imperial court from the original "Village Law". However, in general, the town was still in a state of "autonomy," and most of the officials were locals.

After Zhang Ke\'s case, his family members would of course not be stupid enough to come to he Yue town to complain ... Therefore, they went directly to the higher-ranking Yamen.

As for the government ... They had indeed sent someone to investigate.

The investigation process of this case could be said to be a five li fog in the eyes of outsiders. Although there were many rumors circulating, the content was diverse and it was difficult to distinguish between true and false.

The only thing he could be sure of was that the attitude of the official on the case had gone from "vowing to uphold justice and being unforgiving-to" cold and doubtful ", and then later on ... When he talked about the case, he was already in a state of" evasive and reticent ".

At the same time, the constables who were handling the case, intentionally or unintentionally, also revealed some creepy and strange remarks to the outside world ... They probably said,"there are some \'unclean things\' in the stone courtyard\'s Pagoda. Zhang Ke, this fellow, is seeking his own death. I\'m afraid his soul has already scattered."

In short, the case was finally closed after a month. The final result was ... The officials came forward to mediate and let the monastery give Zhang Ke\'s family a sum of money. It could be said to be compensation or hush money ... Anyway, this matter ended here. Zhang Ke\'s family would either choose to take the money and accept the statement of "being eaten by wild beasts and not having a corpse"; Or ... No money, no explanation.

In this way, the family members of the victim could only choose to keep the peace, and the matter came to an end.

However, no one at that time would have thought that the case would be the prelude to a catastrophe that would happen forty years later.

…………

When they arrived at the gate of the six Harmonies temple, Wang Tanzhi looked up at the large copper Gate and mumbled,"hmm ... It\'s so eerie ..."

His voice was very soft, not because he was worried about being discovered by someone in the distance, but because he was scared, he instinctively lowered his voice.

"I thought that there was enough stinky blood in the town, but compared to this place ... It\'s nothing." Xiao Ling, who was standing next to Xiao Tan, covered her nose and mumbled.

It had been about half an hour since the scenario started. Xiao Tan and Xiao Ling had met on their way to Six Harmonies temple. Until they arrived, they had not noticed any signs of other players.

With their sniping skills, the possibility of them being followed was extremely low. And if someone had arrived here before them, they would most likely have caught traces of them. Therefore ... It could be concluded that they were the two players who arrived at the six Harmonies temple the fastest.

Of course, he could not rule out the possibility that someone had been placed inside the temple the moment they entered the scenario.

"We ... How are we going to get in?" Xiao Tan stood before the door and thought for a few seconds before turning to ask,"should I try knocking on the door or just break it down? Or ... Should we just jump over the wall?"

Hearing this, little Ling thought for a few seconds, then silently took two steps forward and grabbed the copper handle on the door.

Creak!

With a little force, the huge door was pushed open.

"Eh?" Xiao Tan was taken aback."How do you know it\'ll be pushed away with a simple push?"

"I don\'t know," Ling shrugged."I\'m just trying."

Before she could finish her sentence, a cloud of blood mist rolled out of the door before she could finish her sentence. It quickly wrapped around Xiao Ling and dragged her into the door ...

One second later, Xiao Tan instinctively rushed forward to grab Xiao Ling\'s hand, but at that moment ... The blood mist had already dragged the latter through the door.

Bang Bang Bang

When the shock appeared on Xiao Tan\'s face, the door before him ... Had already been ... Slammed shut.
