Chapter 28: Three Deadly Ordeals in Prison The police gave no reason. They simply showed their credentials and a detention warrant. My senior brothers gathered outside the compound trying to stop them. I called them back. I respected law enforcement. A straight body need not fear a crooked shadow. Still, I handed the green jade token to Senior Brother Guanghuai for safekeeping—once inside, it would be hard to avoid confiscation. If someone discovered its secret, that would be trouble. The…-

Chapter 27: The Electronic Worm When Du Changfeng saw me wearing a kasaya, he moved to greet me with Buddhist rites. I stopped him—our statuses were different. Buddhist rites would place us on equal footing, and since Xuanhong had become a monk, he was now honored as a Dharma master and abbot. So I greeted him first as a junior and asked after his health. Du Changfeng appreciated the gesture. Du Xinlang nestled beside her father like a dutiful little darling, calling for bird's nest soup while…

Chapter 26: My Fiancée Right after I said farewell to the elite people, I turned to find Senior Brother Guanghuai standing behind me. It startled me. "Senior Brother, did you hear me talking to anyone just now?" Guanghuai looked astonished. "You were speaking to someone? I arrived three to five minutes ago. I only saw you standing alone, your figure somewhat insubstantial. Only just now did you suddenly solidify, which surprised me greatly. Did your spiritual consciousness go elsewhere?" Really?…

Chapter 25: A World Within the Temple The divine monk knelt and begged forgiveness. It turned out he'd once been a disciple of Dharma Master Xingguang at Foying Temple on Taiwan Island. After violating the precepts, Master Xingguang expelled him, and he ran to the mainland to make his living by fraud. The invisible person was his twin brother. I made him remove the invisibility device. It turned out to be a flexible AI invisibility suit he claimed to have bought for an enormous sum. The seller, he…

Chapter 24: Becoming a Monk at Tansong Temple During my time at the underground base, through observation, covertly reading files, and stealing abilities, I came to realize that ordinary police forces and the military were no match for AI-modified Sweepers. That was why the police and military rarely interfered with Sweeper operations. Technically, the Sweepers truly had no evidence I'd used AI. I genuinely hadn't used artificial intelligence. Or perhaps my same-frequency sensing simply wasn't that…

Chapter 23: The Soul Hunter List Sure enough, there was a physical body. Not truly formless at all. The moment I launched a flying kick at the invisible person, they not only dodged my attack but caught my ankle with one hand, leaving me balanced awkwardly on one leg. I had no choice but to shout: "Hey, hey, let go, or I'll call for help!" "You can see me?" the invisible person said. "Let go and I'll tell you. No." I lowered my foot. This person clearly had superior martial skills. That…

The Strange Shadow in the Old Compound: A Supernatural Entanglement That Lasted Nine Years My family lived in a six-story red-brick building with no elevator inside a military compound. The walls were mottled and peeling, and the stairwell was filled year-round with a damp smell of mildew mixed with a faint trace of disinfectant. Most of the residents in the compound were retired soldiers or their families. By rights, it should have been a place full of upright, righteous energy. But none of us expected…-

The Strange Figure in the Small Budget Inn Even now, I still do not dare casually bring up what happened to me while I was working in Shenzhen three years ago. The strange figure in that cheap little inn became a shadow I could not shake whenever I woke from dreams at midnight. It also made me completely believe that some things truly go beyond what science can explain. That winter was especially cold. I had just changed jobs, and there was not much money left in my pocket, so I could only find the…

The Late-Night Hitchhiker My friend’s father, Uncle Li, had driven long-distance freight trucks for more than twenty years. The steering wheel of his truck had been worn shiny, and in the armrest compartment beside the passenger seat, there was always a thermos and half a pack of cigarettes. Veteran drivers who run night roads all understand this: the strange things you see on the road are more numerous than the bowls of instant noodles at service areas. It happened in late autumn that year. Uncle…

The Red-Clothed Boy Case of Gaoshikan, Chongqing October 24, 2009 — Farewell Kuang Zhijun stood at the doorway of the old house in Gaoshikan with a schoolbag on his back that had been washed until it had turned pale. He smiled and waved at his parents. He had just turned thirteen years and ten days old. His face still carried a little baby fat. Before they left, he reminded them again and again, “Mom, Dad, be careful in the city. I know how to feed the pigs, and I know how to lock the door.…
