Chapter 138 The Miraculous Appearance of the Bodhisattva
"How about we do a live stream for the two of you?" Yan Xun suddenly said.
Mu Yuanming and He Jinqiu both looked at him.
"That way, you two can get some tips even when you argue."
Upon hearing this, Ning Xinian instinctively stopped him, saying, "We usually turn off tipping when we do live streams."
He realized the situation was inappropriate as soon as he finished speaking, so he could only shut up silently.
Yan Xun thought to himself, Ning Xinian is indeed worthy of being the captain, his ideological awareness is so high, even at this time he still adheres to the duties of an idol - unlike He Jinqiu and Mu Yuanming, those two wish they could pounce on each other and scratch each other's faces.
Although Ning Xinian really didn't want to get involved in this mess, he was worried that Yan Xun would actually keep his word and start a live stream on his phone, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask, "We're planning to go to the temple to pray sometime, what about you?"
He looked at He Jinqiu and asked, "Want to come along?"
He Jinqiu put down the black cat and the shopping bag on his wrist—which was full of cat-related essentials—and seemed to be pondering Ning Xinian's words, "Shall we go together?"
Which temple?
"Which temple could it be?" He Jingtang yawned; he was truly exhausted. "Whichever temple is most effective, we'll go."
"I'm going to take a shower first. Once you've found someone, let them know in the group chat."
……
When Yan Xun entered the bedroom, Mu Yuanming was already lying on the bed, seemingly fast asleep.
But as Yan Xun closed the door, Mu Yuanming opened his eyes again, looked at Yan Xun, and propped himself up slightly. "I just remembered something again."
Yan Xun closed the door and looked at Mu Yuanming, whose bed was very close to the door, with only one bed separating them. "Did you remember something?"
"Do we need to be this far away?" Mu Yuanming asked.
Yan Xun walked over to Mu Yuanming's side, and just like yesterday, pulled out a chair and leaned back. He looked at Mu Yuanming and said, "Is that enough?"
“I watched a lot of variety shows with the group today, as well as some shows I’ve been on.” Mu Yuanming looked at Yan Xun. “I suspect I’m lying.”
Yan Xun thought to himself, "You've lied so much," but outwardly he still tried to brush it off, saying, "What did you lie about?"
“On the show, I told everyone that I grew up abroad and lived abroad until I was 15.”
"But actually, I grew up in a remote village." Mu Yuanming recalled countless details as he slowly shared his memories with Yan Xun.
"In my memory... I wasn't an only child. I have an older brother and an older sister, and my parents didn't seem to be the way they are now."
Mu Yuanming looked down at his hands.
“I remember when I was very young, my older brother and sister would take me to play in my town.”
"However, we don't have much money at home, so we just look around and haven't bought anything."
"My mother seems to have a younger sister; she visited our home once many years ago..."
Mu Yuanming clenched his uninjured hand. "Although we're a bit poor, everything is fine."
“I often tell my older siblings that when I grow up, I want to go to see more distant places.”
No wonder Mu Yuanming's current mother looks a bit like the woman in the photo, Yan Xun thought.
He looked at Mu Yuanming, who had his head bowed, and remembered what He Jingtang had said to him after extinguishing his cigarette—
"The people investigating at the time felt that there was something strange about this case."
"It looks like a crazy act after a mental breakdown, but you know..."
He Jingtang took a deep breath. "It's not that such things don't exist in this world."
"Rather than being a deranged act after a mental breakdown, the surveillance footage actually shows that they were being controlled and killing each other."
"Everyone knows what they are doing."
"Even when everyone was being slashed by axes and knives, they were shouting that the fairy Pugu had appeared, and it really didn't hurt at all."
He Jingtang said to Yan Xun, "This matter is too bizarre to be explained in detail. It can only be described as a loss of control after a mental breakdown."
"Later, the youngest son was adopted by relatives, and the whole matter was dropped."
He Jingtang knows so much, and there are even cameras in the dormitory room; it doesn't seem like the matter will just be dropped.
"Actually, there was another detail at the time..."
He Jingtang thought for a moment and finally said to Yan Xun.
"That's why I told you to be careful."
“The Golden Boy cannot convey words directly to believers; he must go through his parents… His parents would use animal blood to write blood letters, burn them in front of believers, and then say that they already know the words conveyed by the Fairy Bodhisattva.”
"After the incident, when the youngest son was rescued from being locked in the basement, there was a blood-stained letter in front of the shrine in the room, the bloodstains of which had already dried."
"It was conveyed in the voice of that Bodhisattva Fairy, who said that the Bodhisattva Fairy had noticed the piety of their family, and that as long as they could shed their mortal bodies, they could obtain eternal life and enjoy countless incense offerings."
"Isn't this a pure cult?" Yan Xun couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, everyone knows that." He Jingtang touched his pocket, wanting to smoke again, but considering Yan Xun, he ultimately didn't take out the cigarette pack.
He pulled a piece of chewing gum out of his pocket and put it in his mouth. "But at the time, those believers, including Chi's parents, didn't think there was anything wrong with it."
When Yan Xun first discovered Mu Yuanming's childhood past, he only thought of him as a tool pushed out by his greedy parents. But now, after hearing He Jingtang's explanation, it seems there's more to the story—
Does this Bodhisattva fairy really exist?
Otherwise, how could the tragic story of the entire Chi family of four being murdered in the villa have occurred?
"Anyway, this matter is a bit strange."
He Jingtang added, "In the subsequent investigation, the believers said that when the steel needle pierced the golden boy's body, the boy did not cry or shed tears, and there was no bleeding from the wounds on his body."
Therefore, I have no doubt about the existence of the Fairy Bodhi.
"After those people worshipped, their businesses indeed flourished, which made them even more convinced of the so-called miracle of the Bodhisattva Fairy."
"How can there be such a coincidence in the world?"
He Jingtang patted Yan Xun on the shoulder, "Those few from the Chi family who weren't possessed actually received divine pronouncements from the Fairy Pugu."
"The only one who was said to be the reincarnation of the Golden Boy under the Bodhisattva Fairy was unharmed in the basement."
"But because Mu Yuanming changed his name and was adopted, everything was normal. In addition, the surveillance footage clearly showed that the family of four did indeed die from killing each other, so nothing came of it."
