New, at dawn the next day, it was almost time for Wuren Temple to open, but unexpectedly, something unexpected happened again.
I saw a huge group of people coming from the direction of the city gate.
This group of people completely ignored the people who had been queuing up all night, and swaggeringly led a sedan towards the entrance of the temple, shouting and arrogantly driving away those who blocked their way. crowd.
As for the common people, they dared to be angry but dare not speak out, because the people in that team were all government servants at the yamenmen.
Then the person in the sedan behind them is undoubtedly the county magistrate.
"Hey, Lord Fang, why are you here?"
"Yes, in the six months since the miracle doctor came to our county, I have never seen anyone come to see him at the yamen gate."
"Could something have happened to Wuren Temple?"
"Well, what could have happened? I think the county magistrate happened to be sick too."
"That's true. The heroic doctor is so dedicated to helping the world, what can happen to him?"
Wherever the government servant and the sedan passed by, the people talked a lot, but no one did anything "bad" I think most people think that Mr. Fang just came to see a doctor, and then jumped in because of his status as the county magistrate.
In those days, the bullying of dignitaries and dignitaries was like breathing. The common people had long been used to it. Even if someone slapped you on the street if they didn’t like you, you couldn’t explain it. You could get yelled at for cutting in line. What's the matter?
To make a long story short, the sedan quickly arrived in front of the temple without any hindrance.
The "monks" who saw this battle were also a little caught off guard - they had not heard that Lord Fang was coming.
However, a few seconds later, a person quickly came out of the queue and came to the leading yamen servant, asking, "Boss Zhao, what's going on?"
Ask the question This person is the second-in-command of the criminal gang entrenched in Wuren Temple. His surname is Liu Minger. From his name, it can be seen that this person also comes from a poor background, at least not from a scholarly family.
Of course, even if he is from a scholarly family, it is estimated that Liu Er's life trajectory will not change much
This guy is one of those people who are born with "treacherous, lazy, and greedy" He is a decathlete who is "cunning, bad, greedy, possessive, vulgar, vain and lame". When he was a teenager, he made bad friends by mistake. He was homeless day by day, fighting outside, playing for money, and stealing. Starting from small evils, one step at a time. One step further and further down the road to crime.
His parents and brother are both honest farmers who are so tired from working in the fields every day that they can't stand upright.
They can't control him at all.
Finally, at the age of eighteen, Liu Er succeeded in losing all his family's few possessions and only one piece of land. As a result, his brother was beaten to death by debt collectors, and his parents were also tortured. Forced to hang himself.
On that day, after wiping away a few tears that were not very careless, Liu Er left his hometown and began to wander around the world and hang out everywhere.
Many years passed byIn the past, Liu Er had done so many bad things over the years that even he himself could not remember clearly. However, he was very lucky. Although he went to prison several times, he always came out alive.
It wasn’t until half a year ago that Liu Er and his bandit brothers fell in love with his current eldest brother "Xiong Fengshan", which brought him to the peak of his criminal career.
Don’t look at him now, pretending to be a monk in a small monastery. Tomorrow, when the ninth day of the Lunar New Year is over, he will immediately put on a wig and go to a brothel in the next county. , I didn’t take it out for seven days and seven nights.
It's not just him, most of the people in this gang will take a few days off during the "Nine-Nine Festival", and use the fraudulent money to go to several counties around the county to have a good time.
At this moment, they don’t know that their good days are coming to an end today
“Don’t you understand what’s going on?” Zhao Captou is a yamen official after all Even if their master has colluded with this group of people, his status is still higher, so his attitude towards Liu Er was not polite, "Master Fang wants to see you, Mr. Xiong, but he doesn't open the door to let him go."
"Uh" Liu Er looked slightly hesitant when he heard this.
As a senior criminal, he was very sensitive to this kind of thing. He immediately thought to himself, "This gentleman has come early and late, but he came to the door with great fanfare on this day of opening a clinic. I'm afraid I'm not here to cause trouble."
"Why are you opening the door in such a daze?" When Liu Er was lost in thought, Capt. Zhao was already impatient, so he urged him again.
"Oh, it's your invitation." Liu Er came to his senses, but still had no choice but to comply. After all, he did not dare to directly contradict the government.
So, at Liu Er's signal, the "monks" quickly opened the temple door and let in the seven or eight government officials and the sedan chair.
After the group of people entered the temple, the temple door was closed again.
Obviously, no matter what Mr. Fang suddenly came to see the Divine Doctor to talk about this time, before they finished talking, the people who had been queuing up all night could only continue to wait.
And Liu Er and his gang of fake monks had to continue to guard outside the temple to maintain order among the crowd.
A moment later, Xiongfeng was inside the mountain house.
About two minutes ago, the old gentleman heard some movement in the courtyard.
But there was not much movement, so he thought it was time for "medical consultation", and Liu Er let the people in one after another.
So, at this moment, Xiong Fengshan took on the style of his miracle doctor and put on a fairy-like posture with slightly closed eyes, ready to "receive guests."
Unexpectedly, the person who walked into the room immediately was Fang Pan.
"Well, Mr. Fang, why are you here?" Xiong Fengshan was stunned when he saw Fang Pan.
"Humph" Fang Pan sneered, and walked towards Xiong Fengshan at a leisurely pace. As he walked, he stared at the latter's face and said, "We are all so familiar, why don't I come and talk to you?" "
Xiong Fengshan YiLook, I’m thinking that Fang Pan’s expression and movements today are different from usual. And why did he come on the day of my “clinical consultation”? Doesn’t he usually come to me quietly to collect money on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year< /p>
As the saying goes, "There must be ghosts when people are not normal, and there must be monsters when things go abnormal." Xiong Fengshan immediately came to a conclusion - this person surnamed Fang is probably not looking for trouble. Give me a stroke
"Master Fang." Xiong Fengshan had some calculations in his mind, so he calmed down and said in a deep voice, "Didn't we agree that all the money of the wealthy gentry will belong to you, and the money of the common people will be yours?" The money will be divided into three or seven cents."
"Hey" Fang Pan interrupted Xiong Fengshan and said, "I didn't know at that time that you could make such easy money."
"Sir, what do you mean?" Xiong Fengshan's eyes wandered, as if he had thought of something, "What do you mean?"
"Ha" Fang Pan smiled again, "Okay, Mr. Xiong, don't I've already checked it out." He paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, "Back then, you told me that you were using a family secret recipe that was based on saving people, and it was just to make some money. , I recently found out that you just pick some random herbs and even weeds from the back mountain and eat them in your stomach, then use your stomach as a furnace, cast magic spells on it, spit it out, and Knead the flour together into balls and sell it to the people as a miracle medicine. Besides making the people who take it feel euphoric and a little addictive, your medicine cannot cure the disease at all."
"You" Xiong Fengshan. When he heard that the other party had exposed all his past, he was a little anxious, "Master Fang, who did you hear these words from?"
At this moment, Xiong Fengshan's first reaction was his own There was a traitor around him, and he betrayed his biggest secret to Fang Zhixian, which gave Fang Zhixian the capital to come here to cause trouble and raise the price.
"Is it important?" Fang Pan paused, "The important thing is that I already know it, do you admit it?"
Xiong Fengshan's face darkened, "I If you admit it, what will Master Fang do?"
"It's easy to say." Fang Pan continued, "I thought that you were a true miracle doctor who could really help people's illnesses, so that's why I told you. We have agreed on the previous conditions, but now that we know that you are just defrauding people of their money, then this is business and saving people, so the conditions given must not be the same." He said, pretending to be in debt. He twirled his fingers with a slapped expression, "So from now on, all the money of the wealthy gentry will still belong to me, and the money of the common people will still be divided into 30-70, but I will get 70%, and you will get 30%."
" Huh." Upon hearing this, Xiong Fengshan slammed the table and stood up. At this time, his kind face of "old miracle doctor" was gone, replaced by an evil face full of evil and cruelty. Rong, "Fang, who the hell do you think you are talking to? You really think of me as a bully charlatan. How dare you open your mouth to me?"
"Oh, of course you are not a charlatan." " But Fang Pan was not afraid at all, "You are just a demon who knows a few superficial magic skills. You led a group of bandits and killed a few people.The monk then pretended to be a monk and occupied the temple here and became the king, pretended to be a miracle doctor and used fake medicine to deceive the local people." He paused for half a second and squinted at Xiongfeng Shandao, "I am giving you face now, so I am talking to you about this. Business, if you don’t give up, what if I just take care of you?"
"Bah" Xiong Fengshan became angry when he said it, "You are a greedy dog official, you are worthy of it. Are you trying to talk face to face with me? Do you think I don’t have a lot of leverage over you?" He also stood up, raised his head and said, "The year before last, there was a drought, and you hid half of the relief grain distributed by the court, and then resold it for private sales. How many people starved to death? Last year’s lawsuit between Butcher Zhang and Shopkeeper Qian, how much benefit did you receive from the latter? And earlier this year, you fell in love with the daughter-in-law of Wang Xiucai’s family, and you wanted to commit adultery while Wang Xiucai was not at home. Who Knowing that this woman had a strong character, she actually committed suicide on the spot. In anger, you falsely accused Wang Xiucai of killing his wife, causing her to die in prison unjustly, and her family was ruined. When it comes to harming the local people, I can't compare with you, Mr. Fang, but you are a little witch. I've seen a great witch. "
"Ah" the expression on Fang Pan's face did not change, but his tone was as exaggerated as a performance, "Where did you hear these?"
" "Huh, money can make all the difference." Xiong Fengshan felt as if he had found his place again, and his expression became proud again, "Do you think you are the only one who can bribe the people around others?"
At the same moment , outside the temple gate.
The atmosphere here has become very scary.
Because the conversation between "Master Fang" and the male genius doctor just now was interrupted by an effect similar to a loudspeaker. The sound was broadcast to everyone outside.
The sound came from within the walls of the temple. The reason was unknown.
Although Liu Er and other "monks" were hearing it. After the first two words of surprise, they immediately tried to enter the temple to stop the development of the situation, but they couldn't open the temple door, and they couldn't get a response from their companions inside the door even if they shouted.
They waited for them. When they thought of climbing over the wall to enter the temple, the people around them had already surrounded them
Seeing this, someone may want to ask, this group of people will not pay attention to the "conversation heard in the air" Are there any doubts? After all, loudspeakers were not invented at that time, so don't they wonder why they can hear this conversation?
Of course, they are also confused.
But that’s not important.
Firstly, given the cognitive and educational status of most people at that time, you didn’t even have to take the initiative to explain something they didn’t understand. What, they will come up with some conclusions related to superstitious legends, because it is almost a universal system that can explain everything.
Secondly, the content of the conversation just now is so exciting. It was enough for the people to ignore "Why did I hear this" and focus on "the people named Fang and Xiong actually did these things"
To be honest. , today’s good show, even if it is framed, the dialogue content is completely forged, Master Fang and Doctor Xiong will probably not be able to clean it up.
Because the people who heard it outside didn’t know what was going on here. They only knew Mr. Fang’s voice. We recognized it. We also recognized the voice of the great doctor. I heard them say this with my own ears. What else could I do? There is a lie
So is there a lie in this matter?
Of course there is, and I think all readers have noticed it - the "Fang Pan" today is a lie. Yes, it was Taoist priest Fudozi pretending to be.
The real Fang Pan was in a coma at this time, trapped under the seat of the sedan in the courtyard.
It is no problem to use Fuzi's Taoism and use a blind trick to pretend to be Lord Fang, and his method is not something that Xiong Fengshan can see through.
Except for Fudozi, the other three are also well prepared.
Both Huang Donglai and Lin Yuancheng put on disguises and pretended to be the bearers called by the "county magistrate" temporarily.
Why are they required to carry the sedan?
Firstly, it is convenient for them to sneak in together, and secondly, because in addition to being immobile, there is also a Tyrell hidden in the sedan. , and there is a square pan under the seat. If you need two real bearers to come up the mountain, they may not be able to lift it.
The four of them pretended to be disguised and hid, and when they were ready, the fake Fang Pan, who was transformed into a fugitive, called the government officials, and the group of people came to kill them from the county government office in a furious manner.
After entering the courtyard just now, the four of them took action as soon as the temple door was closed.
First, Lin Yuancheng made a sudden attack, and it only took a few seconds for the seven or eight accompanying government officials near the sedan to lie down.
Then, two black shadows were seen emerging from the sedan chair
One was the fake Fang Pan incarnated as Fudozi; the other was holding a translucent hammer. of Tyrell.
There were not many "monks" left in the temple, so they were confused when they saw the operation of Lin Yuancheng, the "palanak bearer". Then he saw Lord Fang and a big black man rushing over. It was even more shocking that many people on the spot were knocked down by these two people without even letting out a muffled groan.
While his companions were "clearing the place", Huang Donglai was already arranging the "broadcast".
You may also remember that Huang Donglai had already made props similar to "microphones" as early as the "Dragon Cup", so the things were ready-made. This time he only needed to ensure that the sound of the broadcast was only directed towards For external reports, just don’t return the message to the person’s room.
Just like that, in just a moment, the four people had finished setting up.
Next, Fuzi entered Naxiong’s miraculous doctor’s room with a hidden “microphone”, and based on the information he squeezed out from Fang Pan last night, he added some clichés. "Self-exposure".
So, there was this scene outside the temple
Now that things have happened, the common people have nothing to say to these fake monks. No one knows who kicked them out first. The first kick, anyway, when he came back to his senses, the gang of bandits pretending to be monks had been submerged in the sea of fists and feet of the crowd.
That is, whenThere was only a "squeak" sound, and the door of Wuren Temple slowly opened a crack.
This time, the common people could bear it. Suddenly someone opened the temple door and took the lead to rush in.
The huge crowd at the back was also scrambling to push upwards, as if they were in a state of "get there late and you'll be gone".
Why do you think they are so anxious?
That's not clear.
Some people want to go in and beat Xiong Fengshan to death, some want to ask Xiong Fengshan to recover the money they were defrauded from, some realize that if they go late, their money may be robbed by the people in front, and some I want to kill the county magistrate to avenge my relatives who died a few years ago.
Of course, there are also many people who think that they may be able to find some "magic medicine" in the temple to relieve their addiction.
In short, the crowd poured in from the gate of Wuren Temple like a dam bursting, and in the blink of an eye, most of the fake monks who fell at the gate were trampled to death.
On the other side, hearing the noise outside, Fuzi naturally knew that the matter had reached the stage of "opening the door". He stopped hesitating, turned around immediately, and ran out in a flash. room.
Xiong Fengshan was dumbfounded when he saw this, thinking that Fang’s qinggong was as good as a god
He just hesitated, and when he chased him out of the house, he could no longer move. Without a trace.
What was waiting for Xiongfeng Mountain outside was a large group of angry people who poured into the temple.
The first voice to shout "The man named Xiong is here" was shouted by Lin Yuancheng, who had already blended into the crowd.
“You stupid liar, please pay me back”
“You bastard named Xiong, I just took that evil medicine of yours and my brain can’t work anymore. I gambled money a few days ago. We all lost”
“You liar, I took your medicine and my wife went back to her parents’ home”
“It’s all your fault that our sows don’t give birth to piglets”< /p>
"Loss money, lose money"
"Pay money to pay life"
Not long ago, the group of people who queued up all night outside the temple with piety, now have a different attitude It was a 180-degree turn. Anyway, all the bad things were caused by the fake medicine given to them by this man named Xiong, and it had nothing to do with them.
But in fact, the "Mengxin Prescription" that Xiong Fengshan gave them was not that evil.
You can easily tell from Fudoko’s comment about this technique at the end of the last book that this is not a big deal.
As for the addictiveness of this drug, it does exist, but it is probably only a little more addictive than cigarettes. If you really don’t take it, you will quit in ten and a half months. .
Xiong Fengshan was able to set up a trap here to deceive people for half a year. This "Meng Xin Fang" itself probably only accounted for three percent of the credit. In fact, when he acted as a "miracle doctor" to treat these people, His speaking skills, psychological suggestions, etc. are his real brilliance.
This matter is actually similar to MLM. What products are sold is secondary. The main thing is that the brainwashing model must be effective. IfIf you can collude with the government, you can become even more unscrupulous.
"What's going on?" At this moment, Xiong Fengshan looked at the crowd surrounding him. Although he was filled with shock and doubt, there was no fear on his face.
He really doesn’t have to be afraid.
It doesn’t matter that Liu Er and the others are dead.
It doesn’t matter if the scam is broken.
As long as he can escape intact, everything can be done again.
The reason why he thinks he can escape unscathed is also very simple - he knows Taoism.
Although Xiong Fengshan’s knowledge is only superficial, it is not something that the ordinary people in front of him can deal with.
"Drink" Just when the few people closest to him were about to grab his collar, Xiong Fengshan suddenly shouted loudly.
In an instant, an invisible aura bloomed ten feet in front of him. It was like a cloud on the ground, with faint purple light.
And his actions also succeeded in overturning several men who were rushing at the front, and stagnated the crowd surrounding them.
Youdao was one of the most powerful people, and then failed again and again. He was stopped by Xiong Fengshan's hand. The crowd wanted to advance again, but no one dared to be the leader.
"Everyone, in the six months since I came to the county, I have not only saved countless lives, but I have also been somewhat kind to everyone. Why did you all break into the temple and commit murder like this today?" Xiong Fengshan didn't know that he The previous conversation with Fudozi had been "broadcast". Based on the situation at hand, he speculated that Liu Er and the others might have fallen into the trap under the scheme of "Master Fang", so he still tried to pretend at this time. Anyway, he has Taoist skills at his side and is confident, so he just can't pretend anymore and runs away.
"What are you pretending to be? We all heard what you said to the man named Fang"
"Yes, yes, everyone heard it"
< p>The common people shouted again at this time.When Xiong Fengshan heard this, he was also shocked. He thought to himself: How could the conversation between me and Fang Pan be heard by so many people outside? Is there any expert present today, using some kind of I don’t know?
"Oh, that's strange. Mr. Fang and I were talking in the room. How could you hear it? Do you all have ears?" Xiong Fengshan's mind was spinning very fast, and he immediately I thought of using the tactics used by my opponents as doubt points to defend myself, "I'm afraid you were not deceived by someone using magic tricks."
""
"Yes, I was wondering just now, how could we hear those two people talking?"
Seeing someone wavering, Xiong Fengshan immediately continued, "I did speak to Mr. Fang just now, but that Mr. Fang seems to be someone who is pretending to be someone, and most of what he said is nonsense." At this time, Xiong Fengshan had already come to his senses, so he used his guess as a basis for rebuttal, "There are many things going on today. There is something fishy, I'm afraid there is some demon who is causing trouble, and he is reading a book to lure everyone here to make trouble."
His reasoning was indeed correct. After hearing this, the common people also felt that It seems to make sense, plus Xiong FengShan has been operating here for half a year, and many people have firmly believed in him during these six months, so many people began to feel undecided in their hearts.
Just when Xiong Fengshan felt that things were still turning around and was about to continue to mediate, suddenly
"Hahahahahahaha" a burst of laughter rang out from the horizon.
The laughter is loud and the shadows of people follow.
The crowd followed the sound and saw a person flying in the air. Like a god descending from the earth, he floated down and landed on the eaves of the temple.
This man is dressed in Taoist robes, with white hair and a childlike face. Although he is not tall, he has a tall and straight posture. He stands alone on the eaves and is as stable as Mount Tai. He looks like a master.
This look should be familiar to all viewers. It is exactly the "Xudong Old Fairy" look that Huang Donglai once wore at the "Seven Heroes Meeting".
Now that he is dressing up again, his purpose is also very clear, which is to "defeat magic with magic" and have a good fight with Xiong Fengshan in front of these hesitant people.
