This weird scene was completely beyond my expectation.
Especially in this situation, I can't tell whether they are kneeling down to Zhang Mingyu or the weird statue behind Zhang Mingyu. The only thing that can be confirmed is that there is an existence here that can make all the walking dead and ghosts surrender.
So at this moment, I actually had the urge to leave here.
Afraid?
No!
I'm sure I'm not afraid.
It's a complex emotion that I can't describe, as if everything here, as well as Zhang Mingyu and the weird statue at this time, are related to me.
But what the specific relationship is, I can't tell.
But under this urge to leave, I could clearly feel that the force that had appeared in my body against that weird statue seemed to want to bring me closer.
For a moment, I was in a dilemma.
I want to go.
But the power in my body wanted me to pass, and looking at Zhang Mingyu, I didn't want to leave him just like that.
This makes me very confused.
At this time, the statue standing behind Zhang Mingyu and next to the statue of the strange creature began to break at a speed visible to the naked eye. After it was completely broken, Zhang Mingyu suddenly turned around and walked towards the location of the broken statue, letting
He sat down in the same posture as the statue.
At this moment, it was as if Zhang Mingyu had become that statue.
At the same time, the statue of the strange creature moved again. It returned to its original position, and then lay down next to Zhang Mingyu. Looking at this scene, I actually had an illusion.
It's as if Zhang Mingyu is the owner of this temple.
Not only that.
At this moment, all the zombies and ghosts around me began to murmur. I couldn't understand what they were saying, but I could clearly feel an emotion.
Pious.
expect.
It also seems to be awe.
This feeling made me breathe a little faster. Even I didn't know why it happened. I just felt that this was what I wanted to see.
It was also at this time that my urge to leave became more and more obvious, so that in the end my desire to leave became weaker and weaker, and my body began to walk towards the ancient temple out of my control.
past.
Until I reached the ancient temple, my tears flowed down involuntarily.
I just feel sad.
And among this sad feeling, there is also an indescribable emotion, as if I have been waiting for this moment for a long, long time.
It wasn't until a voice from nowhere appeared in my ears that I woke up.
There were only two words in that sound.
Ksitigarbha…
It was also at this sound that the walking corpses and ghosts around him began to slowly dissipate into the night as if they had been summoned. It was not until the biting coldness around them disappeared that the surroundings fell into silence again.
And I just stood in the ancient temple, looking at Zhang Mingyu and the weird statue.
The strange thing is that this time I didn't have the slightest fear, but laughed involuntarily. It wasn't until I saw Zhang Mingyu fell straight to the ground that I woke up and quickly went over to help Zhang Mingyu up.
And that weird statue showed no reaction from beginning to end.
At this moment, it seems like a real statue.
Everything happened so suddenly.
Calmness returned again.
It's like nothing happened.
The black shadow submerged in the statue seemed to have never existed.
Even this ancient temple seemed a little more shabby at this moment.
But at this time, I couldn't think about anything else. After confirming that Zhang Mingyu was just unconscious, I quickly left the ancient temple with him on my back.
It wasn't until I got out of the mountain and saw Liu Shan's iron bumps that I breathed a sigh of relief.
After placing Zhang Mingyu on the iron knot, I noticed that my whole body was already soaked with sweat. What I saw in that short moment lingered in my mind, making me look at Zhang Mingyu
When I do that, that weird scene will appear in my mind.
Liu Shan was awakened from his sleep by my movement.
"What's wrong?" he asked me.
I shook my head and asked him to continue resting, and then I also sat on the iron lump.
At this moment, I was no longer in the mood to see how Zhang Mingyu was doing, or in other words, my subconscious was already telling me that Zhang Mingyu was fine and just leaning on the iron knot. The scene I saw at that moment was still in my mind.
What is Zhang Mingyu’s identity?
Such an idea came to my mind.
I began to recall my first meeting with Zhang Mingyu and all my subsequent experiences.
Just thinking about it over and over again, it seemed natural and nothing special.
If you really want to say it.
That is, he may also have a relationship with Li Bowen, but other than that, there is nothing else.
But even if he is related to Li Bowen, what can it mean? What can the scene in the ancient temple mean?
I rubbed my eyebrows.
The complicated thoughts in my mind make me very uncomfortable.
I suddenly regretted coming to this river of dead souls.
If I hadn't come, these things wouldn't have happened.
Although these things do not present any real danger at present, they have caused a lot of doubts in my mind.
However, after thinking about it, I still can't think of a reason.
I don't know how much time passed, but Zhang Mingyu suddenly coughed. I followed the sound and saw that he was looking around with a blank look on his face.
"woke up?"
I suppressed the doubts in my heart and said.
Zhang Mingyu rubbed his head, "Well, it just seems like I had a strange dream."
"What dream?"
Zhang Mingyu looked at the mountain where the Dead Soul River was with a strange expression, and after a moment he said: "I dreamed that I went to an ancient temple. In that ancient temple, all the walking corpses and ghosts called me Ksitigarbha."
"In the dream, I even felt for a moment that I was Ksitigarbha."
"But how could I be Ksitigarbha?"
Zhang Mingyu smiled bitterly.
"What is Ksitigarbha?" I asked.
I wanted to tell him that it was not a dream, but I held back, but Zhang Mingyu's words also made me understand what those walking corpses were whispering, maybe they were calling Zhang Mingyu Jizo.
When I asked, Zhang Mingyu thought for a moment and said, "It is said that in the underworld, there is a being named Ksitigarbha."
"There are many legends about him, but I don't know many."
"All I know is that he has a great ambition."
"If hell is not empty, you cannot become a Buddha."
If hell is not empty, can you not become a Buddha?
I looked at Zhang Mingyu a little strangely and said, "This is indeed a great ambition."
Zhang Mingyu smiled bitterly and said: "This is more than just ambition."
"But that's just a legend. What I'm more curious about is why I had such a strange dream."
