I'm wandering in the world

Chapter 40 The Significance of Transcendence

Yang Shuzhen's hands on the bed were trembling slightly. She made a dry sound in her throat, like the sound of zombies in movies: "He did so many bad things later... I... was too indulgent to him when he was a child..."

Chen Qingyuan continued, "Things happen every time. Just last night, the cult Xin Xin Ling She founded by Lin Luhe was destroyed by one person. All the cult members, including Lin Luhe, were slaughtered by this person. It was a big news and was even on TV today."

Yang Shuzhen seemed a little agitated, making bubbling sounds. She tried to prop herself up but she didn't have the strength to do so. Her chest rose and fell for a while before she calmed down. She said, "It would be better to die. I can go to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to atone for my sins soon. I'm almost dead... I gave birth to a beast that harms society."

Her mental state is much better, but she feels like she is experiencing a last burst of vitality.

He Ma wanted to say a few words of comfort.

Chen Qingyuan said bluntly: "Yes, in addition to environmental factors, parents are primarily responsible for the poor education of their children! Lin Luhe died very quickly and did not have time to suffer. This makes me a little regretful..."

Yang Shuzhen smiled and said, "If there really is a hell, I am willing to be punished and relieve the victims' grievances."

Her cloudy eyes sparkled with light as she looked at Chen Qingyuan: "You seem to be very aggressive and impolite when you speak, but... you are willing to come all the way from Penghu County to say this... you are also very gentle at heart... I... thank you for telling me about Lin Luhe..."

Chen Qingyuan placed the book of Xin Xin Ling She under Yang Shuzhen's dry palm and said, "People's hearts are never fair, just like parents can never balance a bowl of water. I am a very idealistic person. Since I fantasize about the existence of something, I must try my best to do it well..."

Yang Shuzhen's voice began to weaken: "How can it be so... so easy..."

Chen Qingyuan looked at the sunlight outside the window, stood up, and waved his hand: "It is precisely because things are not easy that we fantasize about their existence. If they are too easy, they will not be cherished. We are leaving. Bye!"

He opened the door and walked out.

……

He Ma followed closely and lowered her voice and said, "The old lady is in a very bad condition. She is running out of energy. She has already used up all her energy just now. I'm afraid she won't make it through the day."

Chen Qingyuan walked out of the nursing home and passed through the yard. The sun shone on him. Hearing what He Ma said, he paused and said, "I'm curious about who Yang Shuzhen was that Lin Luhe mentioned before he died. Coming here just satisfies my curiosity. She didn't lose out, at least she knew about her son Lin Luhe before she died... The world is full of suffering. Although she is in pain now... she will no longer suffer soon..."

He Ma was silent.

The words coming out of this mouth seem to make sense at first, but when you think about it carefully, you feel something is wrong...

Wanying Palace.

He's mother had just returned, and He's father ignored the crowd and hugged her and said worriedly: "You... did something very big. Although the news said that it was all done by Chen Guilin, I know..."

He's mother covered He's father's mouth with her hand: "Don't say anything nonsense."

He's father whimpered twice and nodded, "Yes, yes, yes, as long as you come back safely, that's enough..."

He Ma said: "The demon fairy was originally a snake spirit in the northeast of the mainland. Shaman culture is prevalent there, and people communicate more with animals. There are five fairies, namely Hu, Huang, Bai, Liu and Hui. Although they have not truly become fairies, they are also respected as fairies. The Liu Fairy we are dealing with is just the soul of a snake spirit. According to its own description, its physical body had already disappeared before it came to our Wan Island..."

He's father has been studying the information about the Five Immortals these days, and said, "How could a good immortal family fall into evil?" He's mother said, "It seems that someone secretly plotted against it and took its body away. It was so angry that it embarked on an evil path, and the result was out of control... By the way, Ah Dai's classmates are safe, let them go back."

Ah Dai immediately went to the meditation room to let the students out...

Watching his classmates leave after thanking him profusely, Ah Dai opened and closed his lips several times, his hands almost tearing his pants, and his eyes kept glancing at Chen Qingyuan, wanting to say something but not daring to...

Chen Qingyuan noticed: "Speak!"

Ah Dai swallowed his saliva, stretched out three fingers of his right hand and pointed to the sky: "I declare that this is purely out of concern for my classmates. That... Wang Yufan was possessed by a demon fairy and went to that evil cult. Now that the evil cult has been wiped out, how is Wang Yufan...?"

Chen Qingyuan said, "After being possessed, she ran to the Xinxin Spiritual House to cause trouble. She was fine when I saw her during the day, but when I saw her again at night, she was lying on the floor of a room. Her right hand was cut open from the wrist. She didn't look very good. There are only two possible explanations for the fact that you haven't heard from her yet. One, she is unconscious and hasn't woken up yet, and two, she is dead."

"what?"

Ah Dai staggered back two steps, his lower back hit the incense table, his face was a little pale, his left hand was shaking: "She...she was just not very sensible, she died like this...it's really..."

He didn't know what he wanted to say, but the past with Wang Yufan emerged in his mind, and his eyes reddened: "Uncle Qingyuan, I have thought clearly about my relationship with her. A forced melon is not sweet. I don't know why, but when I heard that she might be dead, I felt very sad..."

Chen Qingyuan did not blame him. Humans are emotional animals, and it is not so easy to get rid of the emotional roots after being beaten with a belt. The fact that Ah Dai is crying now shows that he has some humanity, and the fact that he can explain shows that he has regained some rationality.

……

At night, this slightly remote seaside town in Taichung makes a whimpering sound in the wind.

There were many people outside Ke Zi's house. It was a funeral procession, with gongs, drums and suonas played. Her father, the gambler Ke, had died. According to the police, the gambler Ke was worshipping in a temple when he was attacked by a gang. In the chaos, someone bit his neck and he bled to death...

The gambling addict Ke's mother kept crying and lay beside the coffin, half dead.

Ke Zi stood in the crowd wearing white mourning clothes like a puppet. She looked at her crying mother blankly, not understanding why she was so sad now that her father had died after suffering so much pain?

She felt completely empty, as if her soul and will had been blown away by the wind. Her mother's crying surrounded her ears. She listened to the whispers of her relatives and friends around her, and wanted to cry a few tears to show that she was also sad. But no matter how hard she tried, her eyes were always dry...

The nuns began the ceremony, reciting the Sutra of Rebirth.

Ke Zi suddenly saw a person in the crowd of mourners, it was Chen Qingyuan, a friend of A-Dai's father.

This was a very strange person, standing in the crowd and staring at her, but she didn't feel any malice, and even felt a little concerned...

He nodded and smiled gently.

Ke Zi wiped the corners of her eyes without tears. She was a straightforward and bold girl. If she couldn't figure it out, she would just walk into the crowd to ask Chen Qingyuan what he was doing. But Chen Qingyuan turned around and left. After being blocked by the bodies of several visitors, his figure gradually disappeared into the distance...
