After Ye Ming's efforts to persuade him to stay, only Taoist priest Jing'an finally left, while Taoist priest Chongzhun stayed.
Ye Ming said to the quasi-taoist priest:
"Taoist Priest, you don't know. We have been tortured by cults operating all over the place recently. We need help everywhere. You see, you and I have such a good relationship. Since we stay here, why don't you help us?"
Taoist Chongzhun is a kind person. Hearing Ye Ming's request and doing his favorite thing of exterminating demons and defending the Tao, he naturally would not refuse and agreed.
Seeing Taoist Chongzhun agree, Ye Ming was very happy, and immediately arranged for him to lead a team of undercover agents to attack the latest cult that was robbing their followers.
After arranging to rush to the Taoist priest, Caiwei said:
"Isn't it appropriate for someone to come all the way here, eat your meal, and then be forced to do these things?"
"Caiwei, what you said is wrong. This meal goes to the public accounts of the City God's Office, so what he eats is public food.
Since you are eating public food, you should do some things for the City God, right? "
Hearing what he said, Caiwei couldn't help but smile:
"Sometimes, I really shouldn't comment on your plucking behavior."
Ye Ming chuckled and suddenly took out a crested hairpin and handed it to Cai Wei.
"No, this is for you."
Seeing this exquisite crested hairpin, a hint of surprise flashed in Caiwei's eyes and she took it with a smile.
"Caiwei, I'd better ask you to keep a closer eye on what's going on in the City God's Department. I'll go find that damn fake Taoist priest to settle the score!"
...
Pingxing Mansion is Shen Qixian's territory and borders Lingbi Mansion.
Because Gao Xide and other policies to benefit the people were in full swing in the south, in order to prevent people from going south to seek work on a large scale, and in addition, Shen Qixian himself also wanted to treat the people better.
Under the influence of multiple factors, the development here is not bad.
Although I dare not say that no one will starve to death, it is no problem to ensure that most people survive.
At this time, in Fuquan County, Pingxing Prefecture, a Taoist priest who looked like a Taoist priest was preaching in public.
The Taoist priest himself looks very distinguished, and the three followers around him are really ugly and have their own characteristics, which is impressive.
It is said to be a sermon, but if you listen carefully, you will find that this Taoist priest is flattering.
Who are you flattering? Naturally, he is touting Ye Ming.
These people are none other than Taoist Priest Jin Guang and the three demons Xiong Congxin, Yang Shidan, and Hua Mianhu.
At this time, Taoist Priest Jin Guang was eloquently telling the story of "Ye Ming Zheng Shen versus the Ten Demons", and the onlookers were fascinated.
Taoist Master Jin Guang is very good at controlling people's hearts, telling the story with ups and downs, fully describing the viciousness and cunning of the ten demons, and emphasizing the wit and power of Ye Ming Zhengshen, who fights wits and courage with the demons.
Everyone was very nervous when they heard that the devil had succeeded in his evil plan. Some people directly scolded the devil for being despicable and shameless.
When they heard that the devil had fallen into the trap, everyone held up their hands and cheered, praising the righteous god for his bravery and strategy.
In this way, Taoist Master Jin Guang talked for a long time before finishing the story.
After hearing this, some people burst into tears on the spot and repeatedly expressed that it was really not easy for the righteous God to serve the people of the world.
Taoist Master Jin Guang also said that not only that, Zhengshen also has great aspirations.
As he spoke, he recited the great wish poem again.
Most of the people present had experienced disasters. When they heard such a great wish, they all burst into tears and were impressed by the noble character of Zhengshen.
Someone on the spot said that they would place the statue of the Righteous God in their hall when they return today and worship it every day.
Everyone nodded in agreement, indicating that they wanted to pay respect to the righteous god.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Taoist Priest Jin Guang smiled with satisfaction.
In the past two years, he has been doing similar deception every day.
Now the ability to make up stories is really easy to do with one's mouth.
Behind them, Xiong Congxin and the other three demons showed no signs of disturbance.
After listening to this person for so long, they have become numb to it.
Just following this person, not to mention anything else, the food, clothing, housing and transportation are excellent, much better than when they were wild monsters.
Therefore, the three demons had no complaints at all about following along as a foil.
Just when Taoist Master Jin Guang was planning to continue to fool everyone so that he could sell some of his own "spiritual talismans" and "elixirs", he saw a woman in strange clothes coming this way.
The woman was tall, a head taller than an ordinary man. She was dressed in men's clothing and looked very handsome.
This is not the most eye-catching thing. The most peculiar thing is that this woman is wearing a pair of glasses (i.e. glasses, sound, love).
(There are records about glasses in the Song Dynasty, and glasses similar to today’s appeared in the mid-Ming Dynasty.)
It is generally the older accounting clerks who wear more kuiji.
This woman is young and wearing a turban, which is very strange.
What's more important is that her glasses are not transparent lenses, but actually black lenses.
Many people felt strange when they saw this woman.
The woman didn't take it seriously, and swaggered to the place with the largest concentration of people. She clasped her fists and said to everyone in a quack-like manner:
"Zheng Weile, the master of Wuyinjiao Zheng (sound, paper) Zi Pavilion, has met you all."
"Five-tone Cult, are you a Wu-yin Cultist who has become very famous recently?"
Someone asked in surprise immediately.
The woman who called herself Zheng Weile nodded and said:
"Yes, I am a member of the Wuyin Sect.
But I don't like to be respected by everyone, so you don't have to be restrained towards me. If you think highly of me, a female streamer, just call me "Xiao Zheng". "
"It turns out to be Zheng Nuxia, I'm glad to meet you."
Among the people, there were those who ran around in the world and knew the rules very well, and no one really dared to yell at Xiao Zheng.
Zheng Weile said proudly:
"I saw there were a lot of people here, so I came over. I wanted to play a song for you. I wonder if that's okay?"
Someone took the initiative to perform, so naturally no one objected, not even Taoist Master Jin Guang said anything to stop him.
He regarded the Wuyin Sect as his opponent.
In the past six months, this sect has stolen many believers. In fact, he has always been a little dissatisfied with the other party's behavior. This is the perfect time to take a look at the level of the woman who claims to be the master of Zhengzi Pavilion.
But I saw that Zheng Weile was not particular at all. He took off the erhu from his back and sat on the stone pier by the roadside with great dignity, holding the erhu in his arms and saying:
"A piece of "Cold Spring Wind" is sent to you."
As he spoke, he moved his body slightly and pulled the erhu in his hand.
At first, everyone was a little noisy, but after hearing the sound of this person's erhu, they gradually calmed down and listened quietly one by one.
After a while, everyone was intoxicated.
Even Taoist Master Jin Guang, who was bent on finding fault with the eggs, unconsciously began to listen carefully.
There were already many people here, so everyone around them fell silent. After the sound of the erhu came out, many people gathered around and stood quietly nearby, listening attentively.
Zheng Weile himself looked like he was addicted to it, quite forgetting both things and me.
Everyone was moved by the sound of the erhu, and their eyes seemed to be seeing something.
Although everyone sees it differently, they are all the things that touch them the most...
After the song, Zheng Weile stopped his movements, held his erhu in his arms, bowed to everyone, and said:
"The sound contains sorrow and music, and the music reveals true feelings. The five tones harmonize and rhyme, and you are destined to listen to it."
After finishing playing the erhu song, a man dressed as a noble prince came forward and said rather frivolously:
"Girl, seeing you running around the market like this, I'm afraid it's hard, right?
How about taking a rest in my residence? "
Zheng Weile took one look at this man's movements and demeanor, and simply refused:
"If someone with a good heart invites me, I will not refuse. But I'm afraid the young master has ulterior motives. Please forgive me for not being able to accompany you."
When the noble young master heard this, his expression immediately darkened:
"Your Wuyin Cult is just a group of singers, and you're just pretending to be a young man!
To put it bluntly, how much do you need to come to my house? "
"Young Master, I'm afraid this behavior is out of character. Please respect yourself."
"It seems that if you don't eat the toast, you will be punished with a drink!"
The noble prince showed a stern look on his face and directly called on a few evil slaves around him to come forward and try to rob someone on the street.
Just as a few people stepped forward, they saw a muscular man suddenly appear, knocking down all the evil slaves with just two blows, and even holding the noble master in his hands like a chicken.
The noble young master was held in his hands and was so frightened that he punched and kicked the strong man, but it had no effect.
Zheng Weile introduced:
"This is one of the twelve guardians of my religion, Lin Zhong.
I advise the young master not to resist needlessly. "
The onlookers were all secretly happy when they saw that the noble master had suffered a huge loss, and their favorable impression of the Wuyin Cult increased a lot.
Zheng Wei was happy to see this and said to Lin Zhong:
"Just throw this blind thing away."
Lin Zhong nodded and threw the noble master into a pile of hay aside.
Several evil slaves hurried forward to carry the man away, not daring to stay here.
Seeing this, the onlookers cheered.
Zheng Weile cupped his fists at everyone again and said:
"Our Five-Tone Sect specializes in recruiting people who like music. If you are interested, you can join our Five-Tone Sect."
After everyone heard this, they all said, "Next time, definitely next time."
Seeing that although everyone supported him, they had no intention of joining the religion, Zheng Weile sighed and said:
"Those who join our Wuyin Cult can receive five eggs every month, and will also receive irregular grain, oil, salt, etc."
"Go, go now! To be honest, I have long wanted to join the Five Tones Sect!"
"Yes, me too, go to your branch to sign up now!"
"Count me in, let's go together."
A group of people headed towards the Wuyin Sect in a noisy manner.
Among them, those ladies who have always had weak legs and feet can run faster than the martial arts practitioners.
Even riding a horse may not be able to outrun these ladies.
Looking at the group of people carrying bags and scrambling to sign up, Zheng Weile shook his head and said:
"Such believers are of no use!"
Lin Zhong on the side nodded vigorously and said:
"Why don't you tell the sub-rudder not to hand out eggs?"
"No, if you say you're going to give it away, you can't break your promise, otherwise you won't be able to hang out in this area in the future."
Taoist Priest Jinguang was so angry when he saw everyone running away. He was so angry that his teeth itched.
I had spent so much money to gather people together, but I hadn’t even started tricking them into buying things. I hadn’t made a penny yet, and yet I was cut off like this. It was really...
Taoist Priest Jinguang couldn't help being so angry, and said to the three demons behind him:
“This group of Wuyin Cultists are so arrogant, they dare to rob people without even looking at whose place they belong.
Come on, let's go over and talk to them! "
Taoist Priest Jinguang stepped forward, looked back, and found that the three demons were standing still.
"What's wrong with you? Can you bear this?"
"Taoist Master, that big man has a higher cultivation level than the three of us combined!"
"..."
Taoist Priest Jin Guang paused in his steps and froze in place.
It would be too embarrassing to go forward, and it would be too embarrassing to go back.
This made him lose face, but he was quick-witted and said immediately:
"Hey, I'm confused. Zhengshen has been teaching me that I must be humble, not get angry at will, and must be generous.
Just a few believers, nothing important! "
After saying that, he turned around naturally and said to the three demons:
"Let's go to the next stop."
Hearing this, the three demons nodded repeatedly, praising Taoist Jin Guang for his magnanimity.
Zheng Weile glanced at the direction they were leaving and said:
"What is this man doing here with three monsters?"
Lin Zhong said calmly: "Scamming and cheating."
"It looks similar, but it has nothing to do with us. Ignore him and go to the west of the city to recruit more believers."
Lin Zhong asked in a calm tone:
"Are such believers really useful?"
"How do I know? Just do whatever the leader tells you to do. Why do you ask so many questions?"
The exchange between the two ended here. Without another word, Lin Zhong disappeared. Zheng Weile supported him and walked to the next stop alone.
