In the village, lived a resident surnamed Chen who had a temple and special religious ceremonies. That said, there is a cursed tunnel and forbidden to enter in the village.
When Ronan and team were on their way there, they seemed to have run over something. When investigated, it turned out that there was a small statue stuck under the car. The statue is said to still be part of the Chen clan’s worship service of the Buddha Mother.
Ronan suddenly felt nauseous and vomited. But they continued their journey even though Ronan’s face was starting to turn pale.

When he arrived at the remote village, Ronan found out that he was not one of the people invited by the Chen people to the ceremony. He was asked to return home alone.
However, following negotiating, Ronan was allowed to remain in the village on the condition that he would not disturb or participate in the ceremony. Physically increasingly exhausted, Ronan also remained in the village.
However, Ronan had to participate in the ‘introduction’ with the priests and elders in the village. During the initial ceremony, Ronan was told that Mother Buddha liked the human who was in the woman’s belly.
