The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 532 Chen Nian's Experienced Insights (2nd Update)
"Under normal circumstances, these people could not possibly still be alive in the Death Mountain. Even if there were a miracle, it would be impossible."

Whether it's my calculation or the calculations of those who went to rescue them, there are still people alive.

This situation arises either because the information provided by the task issuer is incorrect, or because there was a problem with the people who initially went in.

Upon hearing this, Ginseng Fruit immediately became vigilant. If anyone plotted against them, he would tear them apart!

The next morning, Yunran and her group set off.

The people from Sihui Sect were quite sensible; they didn't lead a group of people to farm experience points just because Yun Ran agreed.

There were only five people in total, and Du Jun, an elder of the Sihui Sect, was obviously their leader.

"Don't worry, Master Yun. We have prepared enough equipment and have communicated with Brother Xinfu. We will follow his arrangements throughout the process."

After driving for a whole day, they finally reached the outskirts of the Death Mountain at night.

Du Jun was originally one of the guards monitoring the surrounding area, so he was very familiar with the route and quickly led them to complete the relevant procedures.

“Master Yun, it will be a little safer to enter from here. There is an array set up by the big shots of the Special Administration Bureau here. If we encounter any trouble, we can notify them quickly.”

Yun Ran nodded and looked over. She quickly spotted a formation that, despite the passage of many years, still possessed formidable power, making it difficult for ordinary people to approach.

"Let's go!"

After Yunran spoke, everyone quickly began to change into their professional gear, as the temperature difference between day and night was significant in this place.

Once they put on their professional gear, even if the temperature here drops to tens of degrees below zero at night, it won't have much of an impact on them.

As for why we didn't rest here for the night before going in, it's naturally because it's easier to get things done at night.

If it's during the day, it's inevitable that other people around will see it. The authorities have already announced that people are not allowed to enter and leave this place at will, which would have a bad influence.

They can come and go, but only with special permission, so they naturally have to keep a low profile.

As they approached the entrance, the road became difficult to navigate, and they could no longer easily push their suitcases along.

Seeing that Yun Ran and the others were carrying five or six boxes, Fang Yu quickly came over and said, "Let us carry these boxes."

Clearly, they saw themselves as there to do odd jobs.

Yun Ran waved her hand. Fang Yu was a little puzzled, but he still obediently stood still.

The little paper figures, who had been staying in Yunran's pocket and had never come out, heard Yunran snap her fingers.

They immediately swarmed out, chattering and calling out, "Master!"

Du Jun was wearing a large miner's lamp on his head, which illuminated the surroundings very brightly, allowing him to clearly see the appearance of the little paper figures.

Upon hearing the little paper figure's voice again, he felt a little dizzy.

His inner voice screamed: "Oh my god, he actually saw a talking paper doll!!!"

The little paper figures showed no caution whatsoever. They glanced at the complete strangers around them and immediately got to work.

Each person carried a suitcase, looking very relaxed.

Yun Ran completely ignored the stunned members of the Sihui Sect and strode forward. Fang Yu tugged at Xin Fu's hand, swallowing hard, "Brother Xin... Brother Xin..."

"Alright, just keep up!"

As Yunran walked, she sensed the atmosphere around her and immediately felt reassured.

The Qingfeng Temple has a lot of training opportunities, and everyone who goes out to train will write down their experiences after they return.

Then it was placed in the library of Qingfeng Temple for the younger disciples to study theoretically.

After learning to read, Yunran treated these insights as children's books, and her knowledge was broader than that of those disciples from esoteric schools with family traditions of learning.

She remembered seeing a special piece of advice, the aura described in it was somewhat similar to this place.

The journal entry mentions a young woman from a remote mountain area who was trafficked, but fortunately...
She met a wonderful mother-in-law. Other mothers-in-law would tear their daughters-in-law's umbrellas if they got rained on themselves.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law depended on each other for survival. Although life was hard, they managed to get by.

Just when things were getting better and better, the mother-in-law fell ill. It is said that illness is the death knell for the poor, enough to destroy a family that was already on the verge of collapse.

But not long after, the old woman miraculously recovered, but strange things followed one after another.

People in the vicinity were dying violently, and they were all young and strong. No one knew what was happening.

Soon, various rumors spread in the vicinity, causing widespread panic. Some people said that they must have encountered evil spirits, which is why they raised money to find someone from the Xuanmen sect to investigate.

I thought that by inviting these people from the mystical arts to investigate, the matter would quickly be resolved.

Unexpectedly, things became even stranger. Those members of the Xuanmen sect also mysteriously disappeared, while the old woman's health improved and she looked younger.

When people are panicked and fearful, they release a lot of malice, and rumors gradually shifted to this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

They said that accidents kept happening in the neighborhood and people were going missing, but the old woman who should have died was not only alive but also living so young, so she must have been possessed by an evil spirit.

That mother-in-law and daughter-in-law immediately became the target of public criticism, and some people even tried to break into their home late at night...

The final result was, of course, tragic; within a radius of ten miles, not a single person survived.

The old woman who was alive was no longer a real person. Her body was connected to a special plant. As long as she was fed enough living beings, the plant would give her life force in return.

Logically speaking, such a heaven-defying method should be punished by heaven, but this method has a very special feature.

That is, the living person was not tainted by any sin at all, and those who became nourishment were willingly fed from beginning to end.

What's even more troublesome is that if someone from the Xuanmen sect were to kill that plant.

The karma of devouring living beings, as well as the karma and sins of those devoured beings themselves, will all fall upon the person who kills them.

No one would do something so thankless and exhausting, but such an extraordinary existence shouldn't exist in the first place.

Finally, the senior from Qingfeng Temple, risking the karma that would bind him with these sins, killed the plant, only to suffer a backlash and die.

Before his death, he left behind some advice, warning the disciples of Qingfeng Temple to be extremely careful if they encountered such things again.
