"The ancestral hall on Fuze Mountain is broken."

"It's not that the ancestral hall is broken, it's that the statue in the ancestral hall is broken—it seems that someone made a big hole?"

"That's okay? Could it be a monster from outside the town who wants to warn us?"

"It's not just a warning, what the monster wants is human life!"

"God bless you, god bless you, don't tell any more monsters to break into the town... There are a dozen or so people in our family, who can afford it!"

"What kind of god is it? The god is dead, so go and escape as soon as possible!"

At that time, the mountain rain did not stop, the tide in the forest was cold and quiet, and there was an endless commotion outside the gate of the ancestral hall, which also became more and more intense.

Everyone was full of fear and uneasiness, and even the timid ones covered their faces with their heads covered, as if the sky was falling, as if without the statue, they would be physically and mentally broken, and even their families would be destroyed.

If this happened in normal times, there is still some room for ending. Now the mountains and towns are full of a group of ignorant people who come to worship with hope, which is enough to show that the worries and worries of the former enlightenment are not all. Reasonable.

——Someone has lived a comfortable life for too long. If a thunderstorm suddenly falls on him at this moment, the reaction afterwards must not only be panic or surprise.

More... There will be endless suspicions and doubts in the future.

"This matter is all due to my disciple's lack of supervision." Yin Chung said in spite of the frequent noises of doubts around him, "Master can punish him severely...the disciple has absolutely no complaints."

In fact, at the moment when he suddenly saw the damage to the statue, he had already expected what kind of face Chengdaofeng would have.

But both master and apprentice knew each other well at the same time.Regardless of who the thieves were who carved the karma seal on the head of the statue—this time the chaos is difficult to settle, the first thing to do is to immediately appease the suspicions of the townspeople.

Yin Chun originally wanted to find a piece of flannelette of suitable size to completely cover the statue from head to toe. After that, today's visit would end here, and it would not be too late to go up the mountain again the next day after the statue was fully restored.

But it was obvious that Cheng Daofeng had no intention of doing this at all.From the beginning to the end, his cold face covered with fine lines was almost distorted to a hideous and terrifying point.

Yin Chun could understand the overwhelming anger brought about by the insult of the statue, but he had a panoramic view of all Cheng Daofeng's expressions at that time, but he couldn't understand some obscure emotions contained in it.

At first, the two only looked at each other for a short period of time amidst the constant noise of voices.

After a while, Yin Chun came to his senses, and then lost his mind a little.

He guessed that perhaps what is needed now is not any set of relatively suitable words... but an absolutely fixed answer.

——What Cheng Daofeng wanted Yin Zhu to say was to take all the charges first and admit that he had done all the damage to the statue by himself.

Anyway, whatever the reason is.It doesn't matter if you have evil thoughts in your heart, or you are impulsive, just make a joke... As long as you can make the townspeople feel at ease, and then stop all horrible assumptions and public opinions about monsters entering the town, it is the best way to temporarily stabilize Feng Town.

In the final analysis, it was just a scapegoat by pulling Yinchun, using this as an excuse to whitewash the peace and create an illusion of peace that the married couple of Bi Yufu can control with one hand.

Sure enough, after staying for a while, Cheng Daofeng stared at the taciturn apprentice in front of him, and asked again: "...that's all?"

"I did watch at the ancestral hall last night, and I didn't have time to go back home." Yin Chun saw through what the master was thinking, so he looked away lightly, "But the damage to the statue has nothing to do with me."

Cheng Dao had a gloomy look on his face, and he still didn't change his expression: "It has nothing to do with you?"

Yin Chu also said coldly: "It has nothing to do with me."

"Can you say that again."

Yin Chun raised his eyes abruptly, his gaze was as sharp as a knife's edge: "What does Master want me to say?"

Suddenly there was a whisper behind him, some people were discussing, and some people were panicking at the same time, but most of them looked bewildered, as if they were completely bewildered by the belated truth.

"I destroyed the statue? Did I chisel out the Karma Seal?" Yin Chuan said in a cool voice, "Or something else..."

Before he finished speaking, a slap was slapped head-on, and the sound of "slap" almost resounded throughout the entire ancestral hall.

Yin Chuan was firmly slapped on the head by Cheng Daofeng, and the other ear was still buzzing.When he turned his head, there were five bright red fingerprints on his side cheeks, which made Kang Wen, who was staring blankly, tremble with fright, and immediately bent over to comfort and beg for mercy: "Master, calm down! Master, calm down! Brother, he didn't do it on purpose!"

The surrounding townspeople who didn't know anything were also horrified, panicked and astonished, they didn't dare to utter the slightest doubt in front of this old man.

"Who do you think you're talking to?" Cheng Daofeng's face was unkind, and his tone was indescribably cold and unspeakable under his hidden anger, "Yin Zhu, I'm the teacher teaching you to raise you. Do you act recklessly on normal occasions?"

Although Yin Chun had always been gentle and courteous towards his master, he never had any intention of rebelling against him.But he is upright and stubborn, and he is the most taboo to admit mistakes for no reason - the more Cheng Daofeng intends to pull him out to make a scapegoat, the more unwilling he is to obey.

In the end, Yin Zhu couldn't understand what Cheng Daofeng was thinking in his heart.Anyway, ever since the fight against Liu Zhou'er had caused a complete commotion in the town, Cheng Daofeng seemed to have been covering up something intentionally or unintentionally, and it was obvious that he had relatively deliberately concealed certain things.

Yin Chun couldn't figure out the truth from it, and finally just said word by word: "The disciple made mistakes first, but he definitely didn't intend to make trouble. If the master has the leisure to pursue these trivial matters, it is better to arrange for the townspeople who go up the mountain to pay homage... to solve their problems first. Isn't the whereabouts what the Biyu Mansion should do?"

After saying this, Cheng Miling couldn't help reminding in a low voice: "Brother, you should also calm down!"

Yin Chun looked sideways and asked back: "What I said just now, is there something wrong?"

Kang Wen also frowned in horror and said, "Brother..."

"That's all... Yin Chun, you said that." Although Cheng Daofeng's face was extremely ugly, his tone was as calm as ever, "Housekeeper, bring my wooden stick."

Huo Shitang nodded in response, then turned around and brought up the long wooden crutch placed behind the door, without saying a word, bent down and slowly handed it to Cheng Daofeng.

Everyone suddenly saw this situation, and the voice of discussion was like a tide, and soon another layer of logical conjecture was derived.

"Looking at the old man's expression, could it be that he is the bastard who carved the karma seal on the statue...is he really his great apprentice seal?"

"How is it possible? That kid is very down-to-earth, I don't believe he can do such evil things!"

"How can it be impossible! The old man is about to hit someone. Do you think he did it?"

After speaking, someone raised his hand and pointed forward, and he saw that Yin Chun had bowed his head and knelt down in front of the statue, and knocked his head respectfully.

Cheng Daofeng held a wooden crutch behind him, and said clearly, "Do you know where you are wrong?"

Yin Chun replied: "I know."

Cheng Daofeng: "Tell me."

Yin Chun: "The disciple wandered around the mountains yesterday and didn't return all night. Today, when he visited the statue, his clothes were disheveled, which violated the ancestral rules."

Cheng Daofeng said coldly: "What else?"

Yin Chun: "The disciple did not guard well last night and failed to prevent the statue from being damaged."

Cheng Daofeng only said lightly: "Didn't you do it?"

Before Yin Chun could make a sound, a wooden crutch hit his back impartially, making a muffled sound along with the bones.

Kang Wen and Cheng Miling watched frightenedly, and when he was about to go up to say something nice for him, Huo Shitang stretched out his hand and gently stopped him.

At the same time, Cheng Daofeng asked again: "Didn't you do it?"

Yin Chun's back was numb from the pain, and he didn't answer for now.But Cheng Miling's eyes were already red, and he turned his head and said to Huo Shitang: "How could it be that senior brother did it? My father is too confused!"

Kang Wen also hurriedly said: "Housekeeper, go and persuade Master, you should not bring such a wronged person!"

Huo Shitang only shook his head when he heard the words: "...Who said the master is confused?"

Kang asked, "Is this stupid or something? If the master insists on letting the brothers admit their mistakes, isn't there any benefit?"

Huo Shitang coughed lightly, intending to take advantage of the situation to explain something, but the voices of the surrounding people were drowned out, and the insignificant voices of the three people were quickly covered over - seeing that the crutch in Daofeng's hand was about to fall again, there was a burst of noise inside and outside the ancestral hall. The crowd was crowded, but suddenly there was a deep voice: "...slow down!"

"Don't hit!...Stop, stop hitting!"

Cheng Daofeng was stunned when he heard the sound, and turned his head slightly, only to see an extremely familiar thin figure trying to squeeze out from the crowd—it was still those two surprisingly large dark almond eyes, and the unflattering fancy appearance, The dress is unexpectedly plain and ordinary.

At that time, everyone who had a little impression of it at the scene almost immediately recognized...it was Xie Hengyan, the young lady from Kongzhanlou before.

Even the moment he happened to appear, Rong Buzhi, who was watching coldly, said with a sarcastic smile: "Hey, how come the young man from the brothel in this town knows to go up to the mountain to pay homage in time?"

When the words fell, Kang Wen and Cheng Miling, who were trying to speak up for their senior brother, were instantly stunned, and for a moment they didn't even know where to persuade them.

As for Yin Chun himself, he had an indescribably dull look on his face.Just when he was speechless, Xie Hengyan walked forward, ran all the way to the front of the statue, knelt down on one knee, stretched out a hand to protect Yin Chushi, then raised his head and said to Chengdao: "Yin You have never destroyed the statue! Someone else engraved the seal of karma, why did you put such a heavy hand on your apprentice?"

Cheng Daofeng's complexion changed immediately, and he shouted angrily: "This is a matter in my Biyu Mansion, when will it be your turn, an outsider, to point fingers?"

Xie Hengyan didn't answer, but said to him sternly: "Yin Chun stayed with me all night yesterday, and I can prove that he never tampered with the statue. Besides, Yin Chun is the apprentice you brought up with one hand, is there any disciple?" Don’t tell me you, a master, don’t know anything about this thought?”

Q: What kind of subject is Xie Hengyan?

A: Loyal dog shou... right?

Q: I have only heard of Zhonggou Gong, but never seen Zhonggou Shou... Is that a new breed?

Yin Chun: I will answer this question. He is not a loyal dog, but a rabid dog.
