Outside the store, a group of Three Saints disciples dressed in black ran over aggressively. The guy who had eavesdropped on the conversation between Song Xin and Xia Ren in the crowd led a man in white with a Chinese character face and pointed at Song Xin: "Li Xianshi! It’s him who is secretly talking about our holy religion!”
Li Xianshi happened to see the man in white rolling around on the ground, and a look of surprise flashed across his face, "Xianshi Zhang!" He didn't expect that someone would dare to beat someone from the Three Saints Sect in the market.
"Did you hit my followers?" Li Xianshi asked coldly.
Song Xin crossed her arms, blocked her family behind her, and said calmly: "It's me."
Li Xianshi's face darkened and he shouted in a low voice: "Surround us!"
In an instant, more than fifty black-clad cult members with short sticks in their hands surrounded Song Xin and blocked Song Xin at the door of the jewelry shop. At this time, a woman's scream came from inside: "Li Xianshi, come and save me, save me!"
Li Xianshi's expression changed, and then he saw a woman with sunken cheeks struggling to crawl out of the jewelry shop.
When Song Xin saw the woman on the ground, he smiled coldly, picked her up with one hand, and threw her forward. The woman flew into the crowd with a pitiful cry. Several black-clothed congregants wanted to raise their hands to catch her, but they were knocked down by the woman.
"Girl!" Li Xianshi was shocked when he saw the flower-picking maid being beaten like this, and his expression suddenly changed. Unexpectedly, Song Xin's throw was so powerful. Looking at the whimpering and groaning members of the congregation on the ground, he realized that the other person was a master who was not easy to mess with. He temporarily restrained his thoughts of taking action and lowered his head to whisper a few instructions into the ear of a member of the congregation.
Li Xianshi took a few steps forward, raised his hands and said, "Who are you? Why are you so arrogant?"
Song Xin looked at him coldly, raised her eyebrows and said, "Why, are they bullying my family, or am I being arrogant? Are you asking for my name now, and are you planning to retaliate later?"
The corner of Li Xianshi's mouth twitched, "You beat our people and injured the flower-picking maid of our Three Saints. Don't you even dare to tell us your name?"
Song Xin smiled and said, "They should be beaten if they are not strict in discipline. I have been merciful, otherwise you would have collected their bodies for them."
Li Xianshi's eyes narrowed, and he felt like he was about to explode.
A member of the congregation next to Li Xianshi took a step forward, pointed at Song Xin's nose and cursed: "You brat, what are you so crazy about! If you dare to be disrespectful to the Three Saints and Sages, I will break your legs!"
"Why don't you take care of your dog? Why don't you let him come out and bark?" Song Xin said sarcastically.
The congregants were furious and were about to gather around, when a shout came from behind the crowd, "What are you doing! Gather a crowd to cause trouble, and I will take you to see the officials!"
When Li Xianshi heard this voice, his expression suddenly relaxed and he smiled. The congregation dispersed on both sides, and a group of guards walked in.
Xia Ren's expression changed slightly, he walked to Song Xin and whispered: "Young Master, be careful, they seem to know each other."
"It's okay, the soldiers will come and cover up the water and earth." Song Xin whispered.
Li Xianshi walked up to the officer and bowed respectfully: "My lord, this is Li Yiping, the Three Saints sage. I went to the city today to offer talisman water to the people, but I was beaten by this young man. I also ask my lord to seek justice." "
When the officer heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "I know that the Three Saints Sect is very charitable and generous. Don't worry, sage, I will definitely arrest this evildoer and bring him to justice."
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the people watching were all bitter. This kind of thing has happened before. This is also the reason why the traders in Dongshi did not dare to resist the Three Saints Sect.
When Xia Ren heard them talking, his face turned pale and he quietly said to Song Xin, "Sir, they are colluding."
But the officer heard what he said. He glared at Xia Ren and shouted: "What did you say? Say it again? If you dare to slander the officer, take down this dirty-mouthed old man!"
Xia Ren was startled and hurriedly shrank behind Song Xin. Song Xin stepped forward and cupped his hands and said, "Sir, please allow me to state the truth and then make a decision."
Unexpectedly, the officer glared and said, "Bah! Did I ask you? You can only speak after I asked you to speak. I haven't asked yet, so what are you talking about!?"
Song Xin was startled and didn't know how to answer the question. Li Yiping and the Sansheng disciples all had expressions of gloating on their faces, preparing to watch Song Xin being taken to jail and suffering. He called a member of the congregation and whispered: "After they go in, bribe your connections to find out where this kid lives."
The officer pointed at the scattered congregation on the ground and asked, "Did you injure these people?"
"It's me, but everything happens for a reason..."
The officer scolded and interrupted Song Xin's words, "Shut up, did I ask you why? Since you are the one who injured, it is a street fight. Lock up everyone who comes!"
Song Xin shook his head, "You arrest people without asking questions clearly. It seems that you often harm good people."
The officer's eyes twitched, "What did you say!"
"It seems that you often harm good people." Song Xin repeated it calmly.
The officer was furious and said, "You're a sharp-tongued boy. Take the left and right for me and take them to the Dongcheng Wei Yamen Office."
Song Xin said, "You can't catch me." He reached into his arms and prepared to take out the Prime Minister's badge.
"Hahaha!" the officer laughed, as if he heard a funny joke, "What are you, I can't catch you?"
While they were talking, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd, and many people exclaimed: "The three holy ladies are here to give alms!"
Li Yiping's expression changed and he immediately led his followers to greet him. The people who were watching were also moved and turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound.
Song Xin also looked over and saw a woman in white gauze sitting on the lotus platform, being carried over by eight strong women. The men and women following the lotus platform distributed talisman water to the surrounding crowd as they walked.
"It's really troublesome. There are so many people. I'm afraid it's hard to escape today." Song Xin took her hand out of her arms and stared at the woman who was being carried, thinking about how she would deal with him.
The crowd finally stopped at the entrance of the jewelry store. Li Yiping stepped forward to report and told what happened here. The officer also went over immediately and said that Song Xin would be captured soon. The Three Saints nodded, stared at Song Xin for a moment, then suddenly showed a strange look, and suddenly said in a gentle tone: "I already know, this matter is not this young master's fault, but your fault. "
Li Yiping and the guard both thought they had heard wrongly, and their expressions instantly froze.
"It was the flower-picking maid who was rude and hit people first, and then insulted the young master's family. The young master was just trying to protect his family. Why don't you go and apologize to him quickly? Ask for his forgiveness?"
Li Yiping did not dare to disobey, and walked up to Song Xin with an unwilling look on his face. He curled his lips and said reluctantly: "The church members are rude, I hope... don't be offended. Our church will compensate you for the property you lost."
Song Xin cupped his hands to the Three Saints and said, "Thank you very much."
The three saints nodded slightly and said to everyone: "My sect did not do enough to restrain the disciples, and the young master was wronged." Then he looked at the policeman and said: "Master, this is a misunderstanding today, can you please stop making this difficult?" A young master?"
The officer said with a flattering face: "The three saints said it was a misunderstanding, so it must be a misunderstanding. Okay, okay, it's over."
Song Xin didn't expect that this woman didn't cause trouble for him, but actually helped him.
The three saints immediately announced to the crowd: "The little girl did not restrain the believers properly, which caused everyone to misunderstand our religion. Today, I will not take a penny of the talisman water, but those who need it can come forward to get it."
As soon as this was said, the crowd cheered. People who originally hated the Three Saints Sect also stepped forward to receive the talisman water. Anyway, it’s free of charge. If you don’t take it, you won’t get it for free.
Seeing everyone happily crowding around to grab the talisman water, Song Xin shook his head, "Uncle Xia, let's go back."
After arranging for the female family members to get into the big car, Xia Ren drove away immediately. When the car passed by the congregants, they all cast resentful glances at Song Xin and watched him leave.
After the crowd dispersed, the beaten and embarrassed Zhang Xianshi was supported by someone and walked to the saint. He gritted his teeth and said quietly: "Holy girl, we will notify the congregation immediately to intercept and kill that boy to vent our anger on the saint!"
The Three Saints looked at his bruised cheeks and snorted softly: "Humph, why didn't I see you so energetic just now?!"
"It's...the villain is incompetent..."
The Three Saints looked at Li Yiping and said, "Li Yiping, you did a good job today and did not act rashly. Go back to the Holy Religion today and go to the Dharma Master and ask him to promote you as the Dharma Master."
Li Yiping suddenly had a look of surprise on his face, knelt down and kowtowed: "Thank you so much for the saintly promotion, thank you so much for the saintly promotion!"
Then she ordered: "Well, let the shopkeeper wrap up the red hairpin and leave it to the boy as a gift for this saint. This saint can't stand such an ugly Zhu Chai."
She nodded and looked at her flower-picking maid. At this time, she had also woken up, but her whole face was swollen like a ball. His whole body was shaking and he lowered his head, not even daring to take a breath.
"It's useless... go back and get fifty of the staff."
"This servant is incompetent, thank you Saintess for giving me a blow..." This so-called staff is actually made of thorns. An ordinary person would have to lie down for seven or eight days to grow it after four or five blows. However, this is already the lightest one. punishment. According to legend, there is another punishment in the church, which is to use them as food.
The next words of the Three Saints scared the maid to death, "I don't need you anymore, just go to Huanuyuan and be a maid yourself."
The flower-picking maid was shaken all over and cried loudly: "Holy girl, please spare me. I won't dare to do it next time."
"Let's go." The three saints ignored her and directly ordered to leave. The flower-picking maid sat on the ground blankly. The Flower Slave Courtyard is not as nice as its name. This is a place where life is worse than death...
The women who were following her and flattering her all cast sneers and gloating glances at her, and deliberately walked past her.
After seeing the three saints walking away, Li Yiping stood up, walked into the jewelry shop, and fiercely pulled the shopkeeper out from behind the counter.
"Next time this kid comes here, ask me which family he belongs to and where he lives. If you ask clearly, I will reward you. If you don't know clearly, hehe, don't open your shop."
The shopkeeper was so frightened that he knelt down and said, "Yes, I'll ask you, just ask..."
On the way home, Xia Ren told the news he knew about the Three Saints.
"This so-called Three Saints is the owner of the Three Saints branch near Xudu. I don't know where she came from. The subordinates of this Three Saints are very domineering. Every time they enter the city, some merchants will be bullied by them. Don't look at her appearance. She is very kind, but I heard that she is actually a vicious woman."
Song Xin nodded. He also guessed that today's matter would definitely not be that simple. "Uncle Xia, does the Three Saints Sect have any residence here?"
"This old slave doesn't know much about it. It is said that they have occupied an abandoned Buddhist temple in a village south of the city. It is usually guarded by the followers. People who are not from the Three Saints Sect cannot enter at all."
"Well, what do these three saints do in the Three Saints Religion?"
"I don't know much about this. I just heard that the branch of the Three Saints Cult has a saint. She first followed the leader to pretend to be gods and ghosts. She said that she could sense the prophecies of the immortal family, and then she wrote a talisman and passed it on. The leader, the leader is responsible for making the believers act according to the order. They scribble on the sand and say it is a prophecy from gods to defraud people of money. Later, for some reason, the Three Saints Sect suddenly rises, and they also become the heroes of Conglong. The Three Saints There are also the Great Saint and the Second Saint above."
"Oh, that's it." Song Xin thought of the cults he had heard of before, all of which seemed to have this routine. Especially in this turbulent time, everyone doesn't know if there will be a tomorrow, or even if they can have enough to eat for the next meal. Under this kind of anxiety, the attraction of superstition to them is unimaginable...
