Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe were at the back of the palace. They didn't know what was going on in the palace, but from the chaos, they knew it was something serious.

Most of the smoke entered the main hall, and of course some of it was in the back. Those who lit the fire were the first to bear the brunt.

Huo Changhe frowned and asked in a low voice: "Why does it smell like this? It seems to be different from when the Yin Tuo is burned. Although I don't say how fragrant it is when the Yin Tuo is burned, at least it doesn't stink."

Yan Ruyu knew it well. Although she didn't know what kind of grass it was, it was definitely not the dream grass.

"Maybe the person who bought the grass bought it wrong. It's a mistake. We don't care, we just watch the show."

Huo Changhe nodded: "We all stink here, but they stink even more."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the roar of people in front of him.

Someone came over holding his nose and whispered: "Don't burn it yet!"

The person lighting the fire had long wanted to stop, and now he quickly ran aside.

Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe took advantage of the chaos to go to the front, and saw that the courtyard was full of coughing and crying scholars, and those in the temple were no exception.

The messenger came out of one of the side halls. This situation was beyond his expectation. The original hallucination and dizziness did not appear, so now he had to forcefully enter the next procedure.

"Everyone," the messenger said loudly, "this is the second round of tests given to you by the Lord God. The merit box tests your sincerity. This time, the test is whether you can bear the pain of the body and the tiredness of the heart."

When he said this, the voices around him dropped a lot.

"So, please stay at home and don't be impatient, and don't be arrogant in front of the Lord God. The Lord God will give instructions later."

Yan Ruyu sneered in her heart, this person is a pyramid schemer and can speak well.

At this time, someone asked: "What instructions will the Lord God give?"

The abbot recited the Buddha's name: "The god will emit the light of wisdom, and those who are destined will see it."

The messenger took over: "Yes, if you see it, please keep it a secret and don't tell others. Otherwise, this connection will be lost in the word industry."

Everyone looked at each other, and before they saw it, they started to guard against each other.

Yan Ruyuxin said that these people are easily deceived. If anyone who sees it is not allowed to tell, then those who have not seen it will have to pretend to have seen it. By then, even if the statue has not changed at all, everyone will have to believe that it has changed.

Kind of like the emperor's new clothes.

Yan Ruyu quietly tugged on Huo Changhe's sleeve. Huo Changhe's lips curled up slightly. He liked her little gesture very much.

He lowered his head slightly and put his ear to her lips: "What?"

Yan Ruyu whispered a few words, a smile flashed in Huo Changhe's eyes, he nodded, and felt her fingertips move in his palm, stuffing something into it.

Huo Changhe lowered his eyes and saw that it was a black ball, about the size of two peanuts.

He moved lightly to find a suitable position, and Yan Ruyu covered him.

"When," the bell rang again, the abbot clasped his hands together: "Now, all donors, close your eyes and silently recite your wishes. When you hear the bell again, you can open your eyes, and the light of wisdom will flash at that time."

After the words fell, everyone closed their eyes.

Including messengers and abbots.

Yan Ruyu sneered silently, pretending to be quite similar. They were so sure that this statue must have some mechanism that can produce visions.

Their original plan was probably to allow the vision to appear while everyone was dazed and unconscious, but now that an accident had occurred, they could only do this.

"When" the bell had not yet sounded, Huo Changhe flicked the thing Yan Ruyu gave him to the head of the statue with a flick of his finger.

At this moment, everyone also opened their eyes amidst the abbot's chanting of the Buddha's name.

"Dear donors, please see God..."

Before I could say the next words, I saw the statue was as if it was suddenly struck by lightning. There was a burst of smoke with a "boom", and the head and even half of the shoulders were collapsed. In the dust and mist stirred up, the bones fell and shattered. Rotten tiles everywhere.

When it is above, it is the idol receiving incense.

Next time, it's just broken porcelain tiles.

This happened too suddenly and violently, completely beyond everyone's expectations.

The scene fell into an eerie silence for a moment.

Not to mention the light of wisdom now, even the statue of the god was gone - and everyone saw it.

The messenger and the abbot were also stunned, and their brains seemed to have been blown out along with the statue. They didn't know what words to say or how to make up lies.

Yan Ruyu raised the corner of her mouth, then lowered it again: Huo Changhe's shot was too accurate.

Huo Changhe was also really shocked. He thought it was just a small damage to prevent the so-called strange phenomena from appearing on the statue. He did not expect that such a small one could have such great power.

What exactly is that?

Yan Ruyu pinched her throat and said, "Abbott, is this Huiguang?"

Abbot: "..."

As soon as someone spoke, others started talking.

Everyone knows very well that this is not the light of wisdom. It would be better if it does not say that it is a punishment from heaven.

How can there be such a statue of a god that explodes itself to show its wisdom?

The abbot and the messenger looked at each other, each wanting to push the matter away from the other. After a while of confrontation, the messenger said: "Everyone, this statue of the god is also a warning."

As soon as these words came out, everyone became quiet again.

The messenger regained control of the situation: "Everyone, God is God, whether it is wisdom or self-destruction, it is a way to keep us alert.

Wisdom is naturally good, but destroying the statues of gods may mean that God wants to tell us something else. Instead of making random guesses and angering the gods, it is better to wait and see what happens, and believe that the results will appear in the near future. "

The messenger thought to himself, this is fine. When the news spreads throughout the town tomorrow, some people will naturally think that the gods have given warnings before.

He continued: "I know that many people come here to seek charms."

Everyone looked forward to it, hoping to get the talisman.

"The talisman is precious and naturally hard to find. Whether you can get it depends on your chance, but I guarantee that there will be a few among you who can get it."

The messenger smiled slightly and raised his voice: "Next, the spell will appear!"

"Come on!"

After giving the order, someone brought a tray from the back of the palace. The tray was also covered with red cloth, which looked particularly mysterious.

The messenger pretended to be mysterious, took the tray, and did not open it in a hurry. His eyes slowly passed over everyone's faces, and he smiled meaningfully.

Huo Changhe asked: "What do you think that is?"

Yan Ruyu chuckled: "Incense ash."

Huo Changhe was slightly surprised: "How do you know?"

"Huo Zhongmao told me. He said that if you boil water on the paper and write on the paper, the writing will disappear after it is dried. When the ashes of the dream grass are lightly sprinkled, the writing will reappear."

Huo Changhe suddenly realized: "So, they have written on some of the papers before, but they can't see it now. Once the ashes are sprinkled on it, the writing will be revealed."

"That's right," a smile flashed in Yan Ruyu's eyes, "Let's wait and see if this move will make another mistake."
