I have a book of salvation

No, brother, there are just a dozen people in this ruined temple, one liar and a dozen fools.

Scammers steal money, fools fall for it.

How harmonious!

What do you really mean by playing here? !

The "Taoist" expression was frozen on his face.

But he is worthy of being a charlatan who can deceive more than a dozen people by himself. He forced himself to be calm and said: "Congratulations... congratulations, fellow Taoist, for gaining magical power..."

Having said that, he skipped Yu Chen and walked to the next person - he was so frightened that he even forgot to collect the incense money!

But Yu Chen was a little "ignorant" and stopped the Taoist master sideways, and said: "It's just that in the process of comprehending the magical power, I have some doubts. I wonder if the master can solve the doubts?"

The "Taoist" was almost numb.

Shocked and scared.

What, you're not done yet, are you?

But even though he was cursing and swearing in his heart, he still had a smile on his face and said, "Fellow Taoist, please speak."

Yu Chen nodded and asked: "The Taoist Master said that the Master is omnipotent?"

——The spiritual master is called "Lord" by them.

"Tao Master" nodded, and his voice gradually calmed down: "The Lord is the supreme place, different from people, monsters, and all living things. When the heaven and earth are there, the Lord is there; when the heaven and earth decay, the Lord is still there.

The stars, the sun, the moon, the sky and the thick earth, are all vain for a lifetime, only the Lord is there for eternity!

Nature is omniscient and omnipotent. "

As he spoke, a look of piety appeared on his face, and he returned to the field of deception that he was good at.

Yu Chen asked again: "In that case, can the Lord create a huge stone that He cannot lift?"

The "Taoist" was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to blurt out, he immediately noticed the paradox.

If he answers yes, then the Lord has a stone that he cannot lift. How can he be omnipotent?

If he answers no, then the Lord cannot even lift a stone, so how can he be omnipotent?

For a moment, big beads of sweat oozed out from the "Taoist"'s forehead.

Eyes waiting for his answer stared at him unblinkingly.

It’s like needle felting!

But Yu Chen still looked at him unhurriedly and didn't rush him.

It directly burned the "Taoist"'s brain.

"Well, if this question is too difficult, I still have a little doubt."

Amidst the suspicious looks of many "Destiny Sons", Yu Chen did not continue to embarrass the "Tao Master" and instead said: "Since we are the ones chosen by the Lord, will the Lord help us when we are in danger?"

After listening, the "Taoist" kept saying: "That's nature! That's nature!"

Yu Chen nodded, then grabbed the "Tao Master" by the throat and lifted him up.

This incident made many big grievances cry out in surprise!

"Utu! What are you doing?"

"The Taoist Master is a close servant of the Master, why are you so crazy!"

"Maotu, stop it quickly!"

"..."

Many members of the Ascension Society do not know each other's true identities and names, so they refer to each other by their twelve zodiac signs.

And Yu Chen is now Zhu Xiaobao, wearing a rabbit mask under the twelve zodiac animals.

In short, his move shocked everyone.

But Yu Chen ignored them, just looked at the "Taoist" and asked him:

"You said the Lord will protect us?"

"So where is the Lord now when your throat is being strangled? Where is the Lord when you are in agony and can't breathe? Where will the Lord be when you die ten breaths later?"

The iron-like jaws of the tiger's neck were stuck in his neck. The severe pain and discomfort of suffocation made the "Tao Master" look ferocious and horrified!

He knows that today, he is facing a tough situation!

The gutter has capsized!

He had a feeling that if he continued to speak harshly, the guy in front of him would really strangle him to death!

"Wrong... I was wrong..."

"There is no Lord...no Lord...it's all fake..."

Under the threat of life and death, "Tao Master" struggled to make such a sound with difficulty.

"It's fake...I lied to you...it's all fake...I plead guilty...let me go..."

As soon as Yu Chen let go of his hand, the Taoist master's body fell to the ground, coughing violently, with tears and nose running!

Yu Chen had expected these words.

But those big wretches behind him looked blank and unbelievable!

what does it mean?

Where is the Lord?

What about the omnipotent Lord?

Doesn’t it mean that heaven and earth are corrupt but the Lord is immortal?

Why did this suddenly become fake?

With an expressionless face, Yu Chen took out the Heart-Questing Mirror from the Mustard Seed Sumeru bag, held it in front of the "Tao Master", and asked.

"Tell me, who are you?"

"I...I am an abandoned disciple of Baiyun Temple, Yangzizhou. Because I am not talented enough, I only learned some heretical ways and then came down the mountain."

"Can you make fire out of thin air?"

"That's just a rough introduction to the art of talismans. I studied at Baiyunguan for three years, and that's all I learned."

"Why lie?"

"People in the world are extremely yearning for the path of spiritual practice, but it is difficult to see its secrets. I am a lazy person, so I have such thoughts..."

"..."

One question and one answer.

Under the power of the Mind-Questioning Mirror, this "Taoist" who claims to be the spiritual master's personal attendant cannot lie at all and tell all the truth.

According to what he said, after he was expelled from Baiyun Taoist Temple, he relied on the rudimentary talismans he learned to make a living by performing arts in a certain county.

But drawing talismans costs money, adjusting ink costs money, and it takes time and energy, but the people are still free prostitutes, and sometimes they have to pay after a performance!

Over time, the idea of ​​​​cheating came into being.

He defrauded people from various counties all the way to Jinling and accumulated a lot of dirty money. Every time he wanted to finish the job and stop, after all, he had enough money.

But at some point, he began to be obsessed with being admired and worshiped by all the big enemies, and he couldn't stop.

At this moment, I finally hit a wall.

"I...I'm just looking for money, I'm just cheating, I've never harmed anyone!"

"Master Immortal, Master Immortal, please give me a way out!"

After explaining everything clearly, the "Taoist" kowtowed and begged for mercy!

——At this moment, can he still see it?

The "Maotu" in front of me is a true Qi refining and Taoist practitioner!

A true "immortal master"!

How not to be afraid?

How not to be afraid?

The look of him weeping and begging for mercy in pain was in sharp contrast to the previously majestic and unparalleled Taoist master.

——This Yangzizhou looks good and has good acting skills. The two faces are quite contrasting.

If he didn't come out to cheat, but served the ladies in Jinling, he should be able to make a lot of money.

According to Yang Qingfeng, this is what they like.

Shaking his head to get rid of those strange thoughts, Yu Chen turned around and looked at the big enemies, "Leave it to you."

At this moment, looking at the Taoist master who was crying bitterly, how could the many grievances not react?

They have been deceived!

Not only was he defrauded of his money!

I was also deceived emotionally!

Recalling the stupid and stupid way I used to believe in the Lord, if these big bastards hadn’t been wearing masks, they would have found a crack in the ground and crawled in!

And after the emotions of surprise and embarrassment, what followed was raging anger!

It’s the rage after the dream of cultivating immortality and seeking Taoism was shattered!

And the source is the Taoist in front of us!

So, they swarmed up, punched, kicked, and cursed!

"I'm so obsessed! I just believed you, you charlatan!"

"Where's my money? Give me back!"

"Damn it, you are a liar! I believed your lies in the first place. I wanted to be pure and celibate. I couldn't bear to touch my wife even a hair on our wedding night. Now the whole family is spreading the word that I can't do it!"

"..."

On a windy and snowy night, the temple was ruined by lights, and curses and howls formed a tune.

But at some point, the "Mao Rabbit" who exposed the "Tao Master"'s scam has disappeared.

When the matter is over, he brushes off his clothes and goes away, hiding his merit and fame.

It wasn't until the sky was getting brighter that the grievances who had had enough venting finally escorted the "Tao Master" Yangzizhou with a bruised nose and swollen face to the government and reported him to the government!

Yang Zizhou, who was covered with injuries, confessed all the deceptions and was thrown into prison by the people from the Criminal Division.

And the huge amount of fraud was enough for him to stay in prison for at least dozens of years.

At this time, the dozen or so people who were deceived were relieved, and they suddenly came to their senses!

oops!

A slap on the thigh!

"Tao Master" Yangzizhou is certainly a liar!

But the "Mao Rabbit" with the golden gravel in his hand seemed to be a real immortal master!

Unfortunately, when they looked around, they could no longer find the other party, so they had no choice but to give up.

At the same time, Zhu Xiaobao, who slept in a daze all night, only got up from the bed at dawn.

I have no memory of what happened last night.

I just remember that I was about to go out, but suddenly I didn’t know what happened and fell asleep.

Missed the ascension meeting.

My heart is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot!

Even breakfast was absent-minded.

Until noon, a piece of news circulating in the streets caught his attention.

It is said that the government has solved a big case today!

A charlatan who calls himself "Tao Master" has deceived more than a dozen wrongdoers and accumulated wealth that is unimaginable to ordinary people!

In the end, he was exposed for some unknown reason and was taken to the government to surrender. Now he is in jail!

Society of the living?

fraud?

Zhu Xiaobao felt like he was struck by lightning!

incredible!

He even took some money and went to the Criminal Division in person. After some communication and claiming to be one of the deceived persons, he was let in to meet with the "Taoist Master" Yang Zizhou.

The once majestic and calm "Taoist Master" has now become a miserable prisoner.

Perhaps because he was afraid of being beaten by those big enemies, Yangzizhou just told Zhu Xiaobao as if he was just pouring the beans.

He kept kowtowing and said that he shouldn't lie to others.

When he walked out of the Criminal Division, Zhu Xiaobao had forgotten how he returned to the Zhu Mansion.

At this moment, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that he had indeed been deceived.

The unattainable dream of spiritual practice was shattered.

When I first wake up from the big dream, everything is like a mirror, flowers in the water, and everything becomes empty.

dusk.

Zhu Xiaobao went to Wanjia Mausoleum in Mingshan, knelt on the grave of Lao Zhu, and kept crying, saying that he was wrong, believed a liar, and wasted his family's wealth.

By chance, the young tombkeeper came over.

He asked Zhu Xiaobao if he still wanted to practice immortality and Taoism in the future?

Zhu Xiaobao's enthusiasm waned and he decided to forget it. From now on, it would be enough to take good care of his family business, get a wife and have children.

The tombkeeper nodded and left.

But what Zhu Xiaobao never saw was that beside the tomb guard, Lao Zhu's ghost finally stopped frowning and smiled happily after seeing all this.
