Chapter 251: Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Sutra Ranran didn't give herself much time to rest, as there was something else waiting for her that had to be completed. She ignored Shen Dinghai's dissuasion and came to the vicinity of Building 8's construction site again. "Fortunately... I can still make it." She breathed with some labor and reached out to wipe the sweat from her forehead. Shen Dinghai looked at her with a distressed look on his face, but he couldn't do anything about her. The sheriff's department at the scene has already put all 33 bodies into body bags, leaving only the faces exposed. The forensic doctor is currently taking photos of the facial features. Their expertise allows them to grasp the peculiarities of human facial features more accurately, making it easier for them to identify the photos when handed over to the deceased's family members. Although the body was embalmed in this way entirely for the purpose of taking photos, it also provided convenience for Ranran. She waved to Zhang Wei who was not far away. "Officer Zhang, there is something I need your consent for."
Zhang Wei bent down considerately, allowing Ranran to get close to her and talk. In Shen Dinghai's eyes, he only saw Ran Ran whispering something into Zhang Wei's ear. Zhang Wei was stunned for a moment, and she couldn't help but turn her eyes and stare at Ran Ran, as if she was surprised by Ran Ran's suggestion. But after being surprised, Zhang Wei still nodded. Ran Ran bowed to her before walking towards the bodies that were placed in the open space. She took out a wooden hairpin from her small cloth bag, tied her hair into a bun, and rolled up her freely floating hair. Seeing the similar hairstyle, Shen Dinghai instantly thought of Ran Ran's appearance and dress when he first met her. "Cousin, are you going to..." Ranran was immersed in what she was about to do and did not hear Shen Dinghai's call. She put her index and middle fingers together, bent her ring finger and little finger, and made a hand gesture. A warm white halo spread out from her, covering the thirty-three bodies present. Zhang Wei was standing in this range, so she could see more clearly. A little white light appeared between the eyebrows of the thirty-three corpses, echoing the white light on Ranran's fingertips. Zhang Wei didn't know anything about gods and ghosts. In fact, before she saw the vision in Li Yang's funeral hall with her own eyes, she didn't even believe in such claims, even though her father was related to these things. But now she could vaguely realize that Ranran was performing some kind of magic with a range. She was in this range, and the biggest feeling was... There is a soothing breeze surrounding my body, so gentle, just like... a mother's gentle hands. Zhang Wei couldn't help but look at Ran Ran with her eyes wide open, and saw her slightly open lips. Her clear voice was still a little childish, but every word she read seemed to contain infinite power. “All sentient beings who have not been liberated…” Upon hearing this, Zhang Wei unconsciously relaxed her tense muscles. Even more miraculous was that she felt her mind was clearer than ever before. Ranran was concentrating on doing this task and was completely unaware of the gazes of people around him. "The nature of consciousness is uncertain, bad habits lead to karma, good habits result, doing good or evil, born according to circumstances, revolving through the five realms, without a moment's rest, moving through countless aeons, confused and entangled, like a fish swimming in a net, it will be a long flow, escaping for a while, only to be caught again..."
These words were not the first time Zhang Wei had heard them, she had heard them in other places as well... Zhang Wei followed the feeling of comfort and ease and quickly found her original memories. It was my father. He also read it at my grandmother’s funeral. This is… Ksitigarbha Sutra! "I am worried about people like this." "Since you have fulfilled your past vows and made solemn vows over countless lifetimes to save the sinners, I have nothing to worry about." Ranran finished chanting and opened her eyes. The warm white light in her eyes went out, and the white light between the corpse's brows also disappeared. The ceremony is completed. No one present could understand what Ran Ran had done, except Zhang Wei who was within the range of the magic. She saw something she had never seen in her life. In the bright white light, many souls circled around Ran Ran, like free birds, like invisible wind, dancing around Ran Ran, as if they wanted to say goodbye to Ran Ran reluctantly before rushing towards a new life. At the same time, a female voice kept coming from her ears, and it seemed that she heard it from some faraway place. Zhang Wei could not hear these ghosts' whispers clearly, but what she heard the most were two words. 【Thanks】 For a moment, Zhang Wei couldn't help but burst into tears. She probably understood why every word Ranran said was so important. That is the weight of life. Zhang Wei held back her tears and saw Ranran leave the open space where the body was placed, then bowed towards the body. "This life is full of ups and downs, I only hope that in the next life, I will not be a miserable person." Ranran's words were like a thin thread hooking around her heart, instantly breaking the emotions that Zhang Wei had suppressed in her heart. There was no expression on Ranran's calm face. She turned around to leave, but Zhang Wei called her to stop. "Little master!" "……Thank you." Ran Ran turned around and nodded, "This is what I should do." "I have another question!" “I wish to help good people solve their doubts.” Zhang Wei was in her emotions and did not realize the change in Ranran's address. In fact, Ranran had never called her that before. "When a person dies, his soul is reborn. Li Yang even thought about occupying Li Liu's body to dispel his resentment and obsession. These girls...where are their souls?" “Didn’t they think of expressing their resentment?” There were thirty-three female corpses. After a rough identification by the forensic doctor, the oldest one was no more than eighteen years old. It was no exaggeration for Zhang Wei to say that she was a girl. Their tender bodies have not yet fully grown, but they have to endure the pain of life being peeled off and slipping away from their bodies. Compared to adults, they really can't bear it.
"Eight buildings are what they are unwilling to do. Beyond that, there is nothing else." "I once said that their reluctance was too frivolous." "What kind of personality a person has in life, he will become the same kind of ghost after death, only more paranoid and more crazy." "The spirits of these girls did not express any other resentment to us, which only shows that their original character was not to fight for anything, and they were even inferior and cowardly." "Even if I become a paranoid ghost after death, the only thing I can do is to cause a building under construction to malfunction." Zhang Wei was shocked by this statement, but what frightened her the most was Ranran's attitude when he said these words. Zhang Wei could not see any compassion, pity, or even disgust in her eyes; her emotions did not fluctuate at all! She was as calm as if she were explaining why leaves are green. Ranran like this... She was clearly praying for the souls of the dead just a moment ago! Isn’t she praying for salvation with a compassionate heart? Zhang Wei's shocked expression made Ran Ran tilt her head, "Is it difficult for a kind person to understand?" "It is precisely because these girls were weak-willed and came from difficult families that they became the targets of those behind the scenes." Zhang Wei opened her eyes wide and looked at Ran Ran carefully, only then she noticed the changes in Ran Ran. Not only has his height increased, much taller than before, but his eyebrows and facial features have also undergone subtle changes. She just discovered now... Ranran has grown up! In fact, if Shen Dinghai hadn't urgently found suitable and similar clothes for Ranran to change into, and Ranran was still wearing her previous clothes, the change would have been more obvious. After the second seal was released, Ranran looked like a girl of at least nine years old. But this is not her biggest change... Shen Dinghai stood in the distance and watched the confrontation between Ranran and Zhang Wei, feeling empty in his heart. What "Witch Ning" said was indeed right, my cousin's mood was becoming more and more depressed!
