Bab 35: Entering The Enlightened Forest

The Enlightened Forest was located ten miles outside the city of Yunzhou. It sounded strange, but it was actually an abandoned bamboo forest. Nonetheless, it was said that this bamboo forest was once the forbidden place of Baoning Enlightened Temple, the most prosperous temple in Yunzhou City, and the Enlightened Forest was named after it.

It was a pity that Baoning Enlightened Temple was burnt down in a year ago, and the Enlightened Forest had since been abandoned.

The inn shopkeeper heard that Yang Yiting and her party were going to the Enlightened Forest, and kindly discouraged her. "This Enlightened Forest is very evil. I heard that the ghosts of the monks who were burned to death at Enlightened Temple are still living in the forest. There was a reason why everyone in this city dared not go into the forest. Earlier there were a few bold people who didn't believe in evil, and they just went into the woods, but they never came out. I advise you to think twice."
