It turns out to be the "little boy" whom "Dragon" met in the ether abyss, codenamed Lanjin.
Did he do anything in this cave?
"If the donor must know something, let me tell you slowly."
The old monk placed the Buddhist beads in his hand on the table, and said with drooped eyelids: "Forty-five years ago, before the natural disasters occurred, my family was a billionaire with a rich family fortune, but the population was not prosperous and it was passed down from generation to generation."
"My father arranged for me to get married. He said that he wanted to start a family first, make his family more prosperous, and then start a career."
"I was quite reluctant at first. I wanted to have fun for a while. I had just graduated from college, and who would want to get married and have children?"
"But I didn't expect that the girl was quite wealthy and a famous local beauty. We were of the same family, and we fell in love at first sight. She was a talented man and a beautiful woman. At that time, I was very happy and everything went smoothly."
Wang Hao listened quietly and sighed silently. In today's world, there are more and more entertainments that can provide cheap emotional value. The attraction of falling in love is getting less and less, and there are more singles.
But what man wouldn’t like Bai Fumei, who has a good personality?
Of course, he, Lao Wang, doesn’t have high requirements for girls. He mainly wants a girl who is interesting and creative...
Well, an interesting soul is very important. After all, he is face-blind. As long as he is not too ugly, he can't see clearly. A little beauty like Xiaoyue will just pass the test. This requirement is very low, right?
"...However, people have their fortunes and misfortunes, and the moon waxes and wanes." The old monk paused and said expressionlessly: "One month before the wedding, we made an appointment to go hiking in a distant mountain. It was a barren mountain and a jungle.
It’s densely covered with weeds and has quite a primitive look, making it a famous check-in area for internet celebrities here.”
"I was young, frivolous and inexperienced at that time. How could I know the dangers of these barren mountains? So we camped in the barren mountains. At the corners of the river, there were also wild fish, shrimps and green wild vegetables."
"However, a heavy rain poured down and a mudslide broke out. My fiancée was hit in the head by a falling boulder and died on the spot."
Wang Hao suppressed his smile and said seriously: "Master, please forgive me."
He was thinking about what kind of information the old monk wanted to reveal through this story.
Can you fight against [delusion]?
"It doesn't matter, it's just a matter of time. This happened forty years ago."
The old monk sighed and said: "I was also present at that time. Several falling boulders happened to support a tripod and protected me. My fiancée was killed on the spot, but I survived.
, just trapped in place, unable to escape."
"Beyond the boulders is a torrent of mud, with only a barely exposed crack letting in a breath of fresh air."
"I yelled a few times and found she didn't respond."
"My fiancée died, her body was as stiff as a piece of iron, and my heart was as gray as ashes."
"The world is meaningless to me, so I might as well die with it."
Wang Hao’s brows were furrowed and his heart was filled with despair. Can he resist the power of [Fantasy]?
How can it be that simple?
That's the devil!
The old monk continued: "... After moving around, in the narrow crack, I found the luggage bag scattered at my feet."
"There is a flashlight, a dagger, and some freshly cut wild vegetables inside, but there is no water."
"There was silence all around."
"There is only the sound of 'dong dong' heartbeat."
"I am trapped here, in the company of my cold fiancée, and my despair is getting stronger and stronger... 'Pierce into the heart, and we will rush to hell together', as if it were my fiancée murmuring to me in the darkness."
"I turned on the flashlight, picked up the dagger, and saw a piece of her finger buried under the boulder."
"She's really dead."
"The fingers, which are as green as white jade, feel cold to the touch now, and the luster of the skin has dimmed. The most beautiful stars in the night sky have already fallen, and I am all alone. What's the point of living?"
The old monk paused for a while: "Suddenly, I want to see her again!"
"I started digging in the soil with my hands, digging with daggers, digging with shoes. I tried every means to dig her out, even if I couldn't save myself at the moment. As long as I saw her for the last time, I would die with her...
…”
The air fell into silence, and the crowd outside the window continued to enter the cave entrance in an endless stream.
People scrambled and quarreled, fearing that they would be a step too late.
With expressions of ecstasy on their faces, they entered the cave crazily, like squirming maggots controlled by desire.
Paradise, a paradise on earth without worries!
Entering paradise is equivalent to climbing to the other side!
The old monk, on the other hand, was telling his miserable past.
This strong contrast made Wang Hao suddenly feel a chill to his bones.
If you think about it carefully, the monk's reaction was normal. He wanted to commit suicide out of despair and impulse.
But in the end, I don’t want to die so easily.
"...I finally dug her out. Her head had been crushed by a boulder, just like an apple crushed by a hammer. But it didn't matter. She was my fiancée. The beautiful past made me happy.
I am still willing to lie next to her and look at her for the last time. I should pierce the dagger into my heart so that we can rush to hell sooner."
"However, what is even more terrifying is that I saw her head..."
"The place that was smashed..."
The old monk's tone lowered, and he was trembling hoarsely.
"There is actually a mouse..."
"Sucking her brains out!"
"This rat came from nowhere. Her brain is still stuck to its mouth, its belly is swelling, and its green eyes are staring at me... It is sucking the brains of the person I love most!"
Wang Hao swallowed. This sudden turn of events caught him off guard and left him breathless.
"I went crazy on the spot and roared heart-breakingly, trying to catch this mouse!"
"But how can you grasp the small space?"
"The mouse ran through the cracks in the rocks, leaving me furious, still trapped in place."
Wang Hao felt cold in his heart and listened quietly to the legendary story of the monk who guarded this place.
Does this make you feel hopeless?
of course not.
Not even close!
Still a little short of that!
"I was gasping for air, and suddenly it was like a dream, jumping from one dream to another!"
"The person next to my pillow is already dead. In a few days, she will rot and stink, her belly will continue to expand, and the stench will come out of her body. She was so beautiful when she was alive, but how terrible she will be after she is born."
"But my parents are still alive, and I am still young... I was very young at that time... I was hungry and thirsty..."
"Later, I waited for the rescue team to arrive. I don't know how long it took..."
When the monk said this, he stopped talking.
"We travel together in dreams at night, and in the morning we can't hold back tears..."
He finally said: "I...am not a mouse? After I became a mouse, I regretted it for the rest of my life and could only become a monk."
Wang Hao took a breath, suddenly his body went cold, and he understood the monk's subtext.
What a...horrible story!
This monk's soul is already dead.
When he was about to turn around and say goodbye, the old monk suddenly laughed again: "Later, I actually heard a voice in my mind, saying that he could resurrect her and bring her back to me."
"There is a place where all wishes can come true. All wishes can come true."
"This sound is like a hazy cloud, which is haunting and haunting. It often appears even in dreams. That place is called paradise."
"So, I came here."
"As long as I get into this hole, I can realize my wish and resurrect her? Do you think it's funny or not?"
