Chapter 591: 298 Hell (First Watch)
Zhao Qin stood up with a smile, “Let’s go, I’ve seen enough of the hustle and bustle.”
Li Jiaojiao shook her head: “These little brats are way worse than us back in the day.”
“That’s because they don’t have a righteous person like Ming Jing.” The last four words were said with a tight emphasis, carrying a hint of sarcasm.
Li Jiaojiao chuckled, “Don’t give her too much credit, she can only scare them a little...”
Her mouth suddenly gaped open, wide enough to fit an egg, and her eyes widened as the double eyelid tape slightly fell off due to the wide movement of her eyes.
Zhao Qin also saw it and hooked her lips in amusement; “Underestimate her, and you’ll suffer.”
“Ouch, ouch, ouch...” Li Yu screamed in pain, her heart filled with horror.
“You bitch, let go of my arm...”
She didn’t even see how the other party made their move, but the hand she was using to grab Zhang Yunfang was grabbed by the other party in the blink of an eye.
Her left hand was twisted around her neck and held behind her back, causing her to hear the cracking sound of her joints. The other hand was gently pressed on her right shoulder, pinning her down like a giant bell and rendering her immobile.
Everyone else instinctively took a step back.
Zhang Yunfang looked at Ming Jing with admiration and couldn’t resist going up to kick Li Yu to vent her anger.
“Bullying the weak is the most shameless act. Buddha once said that those who commit the five heinous sins and the ten evil deeds will descend into the Avīci Hell after death. What is Avīci? It is a place with no gap in time, space, suffering, destiny, and life.”
“Among the thousand hells surrounded by the Great Iron Wall Mountain, there are eighteen major hells. The utterance of a great fire, the nose-utterance of intense heat, and the raging fire entering the heart is Avīci. You guys joke about it all the time, but you must know it well. The Avīci Hell covers a circumference of eighteen thousand miles, with walls one thousand miles high made of pure iron. Blazing flames burn from above to below and from below to above, and hundreds of rakshasa ghosts with teeth like swords and eyes like lightning strike sinners’ mouths, noses, abdomens, and backs with iron spears, tossing them into the air. Iron eagles peck at their eyes, iron snakes coil around their heads and necks. Within every limb and joint, long nails are hammered in; sinners’ tongues are pulled out, their intestines ground and chopped, molten copper is poured into their orifices, and their bodies are bound with burning iron wires...”
Ming Jing’s cold and gentle voice seemed to recount a story, yet everyone present shuddered involuntarily, and their imaginations ran wild as she spoke.
Although the sun was shining overhead, and the breeze was gentle, nobody felt the warmth. A chill crept in from the soles of their feet, reaching all the way to the top of their heads.
Ming Jing released her grip, and Li Yu’s face turned pale as she staggered back a few steps.
Ming Jing swept her gaze over everyone, and the other girls’ faces all turned pale. Zhang Yunfang nervously swallowed her saliva.
Liu Muxue, who had been laughing and joking earlier, couldn’t help but become serious as well.
Li Jiaojiao clenched her fists, “What is she trying to bewitch them with?”
A group of teenage girls, whose naughtiness was written all over their faces, were naturally no match for the already adult Li Jiaojiao and Zhao Qin.
Li Jiaojiao looked at Zhao Qin and found that she was also frowning, seeming to be genuinely frightened.
However, the most amazing thing about Ming Jing was that every word she said made you believe that it was real...
She couldn’t help but panic.
“Zhao Qin... Is she just bluffing? Trying to scare us?”
Zhao Qin didn’t answer her. She looked into Ming Jing’s eyes, but soon admitted her defeat and left awkwardly.
Not far away, Zhu Xiangxiang sat on the horse with a pale face, looking at the approaching Ming Jing and shuddered subconsciously.
Even though it was noon, when the sun was at its fiercest, it made her feel cold all over, with her hands and feet icy cold.
Ming Jing ignored her and walked past her.
“Sister Ming Chen, I...”
“My name is Ming Jing.”
“Sister Ming Jing, are you a nun?”
“I guess so?”
“Wow, that’s so amazing! So, sister, can you take me as your disciple? In the future, I will be a good person and respect my master.”
Ming Jing suddenly stopped and looked down at the girl in front of her.
Cui Yumeng earnestly said, “Sister, I...I really want to be your disciple. Please take me in.”
At this moment, Zhang Yunfang came over and said, “Sister, I want to be your disciple too.”
Cui Yumeng secretly glared at her. What are you joining in for?
Zhang Yunfang said firmly, “I’m serious, Master.”
After saying this, she knelt down immediately.
Without a word, Cui Yumeng followed suit and knelt down as well.
Liu Muxue laughed until her stomach hurt, pointing at the two and said, “Do you know what the first thing is when you become a nun? The initiation ceremony involves shaving your heads. Are you willing to part with your beautiful hair?”
Cui Yumeng and Zhang Yunfang’s faces turned pale at the same time, and they subconsciously reached out to touch their hair.
Cui Yumeng had long and thick hair, while Zhang Yunfang had short hair, but it also grew quite well.
As Cui Yumeng hesitated, Zhang Yunfang made up her mind, “I am willing to shave my head, as long as my master accepts me.”
