NO.118 Ghost Train(3)
"I managed to catch up with the train and learned some surprising truths. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info" the madman continued, adding without being shocked.
Gan Tian's eyes fluctuated, and he could no longer hide his heart, and the feeling of surprise was finally exposed. It's a pity that the madman doesn't notice such details, he just follows the steps he thought of before. But it is undeniable that Gan Tian's attention was successfully attracted by the madman to the next thing.
The madman took a deep breath and described the events of that day as briefly as possible.
Here's how it happened.
Almost two days ago, when the legend of the ghost train and other supernatural events was in an uproar in the imperial capital, a large number of "capable people" gathered in the imperial capital, which really caused a lot of turmoil. Because the country needs to rely on the strength of those real Taoist priests, it is not good to fight fakes, so it temporarily chooses to let it go. However, they are not inactive, they have been secretly collecting information about those who cheat, and they are also secretly getting rid of some of them.
The madman and Jingming received a message from the Special Operations Department about a large-scale propaganda campaign held by some fake Taoists. Those guys want to take advantage of this to fire the first shot, open up the situation in country H, and have a certain popularity. Naturally, the special operations department will not allow such a thing to happen, how can it be possible for those pseudo-scientific things to obtain a large amount of propaganda resources, and they must be strangled in the cradle. I don't know who gave the opinion, which made them think of the madman who is both a knight and a Taoist priest for the first time.
In the beginning, in fact, the heart of the madman was entangled. He has always wanted to find an opportunity to teach those who insult the gods and deceives ghosts, but at the same time, he is also working under Gan Tian, and the first principle is to keep it secret, and not to make extraneous branches.
After thinking about it, when he heard that Jing Ming would also act with him, the madman made up his mind to solve the matter as soon as possible and neatly.
They were informed of the time and place, and the rally officially began at midnight. Towards the end of the evening they arrived at the meeting place, a small square with a negligible name. However, in the imperial capital, where every inch of land is valuable, even a small square of dozens of square meters is a resource that needs to be fought for. If it weren't for those guys who paid honestly, the Special Operations Department wouldn't have been so easy to lock down here.
The small square belonged to the deceitful people tonight, and they had been preparing early in the morning, sealing it off with a yellow cordon. It wasn't until after ten o'clock that they opened the cordon, opened an entrance, and set up a desk to manage the people who came and went.
There were a lot of people who were attracted to it, and after a while, dozens of people gathered there, and most of the small square was occupied by the crowd.
"Aren't they called Taoist priests? It's not like that, it's not like those ordinary activities. The madman snorted.
Jing Ming said: "I also went to try it just now, it is a fictitious position, it seems that it has to be added because of the public security management regulations of the imperial capital, in principle, as long as you are willing to believe in them, you can participate." ā
The madman covered his mouth and said in his heart: "Wahahahaha, cultivators will also be coerced by the city management, wahahahaha......"
At this time, Jing Ming said: "The information given to us by the special operations department mentioned that this operation was originally a propaganda campaign carefully planned by those who deceived gods and deceitful ghosts, because the gimmick was too big, and there were even many powerful guys called reporters who were attracted to it. It is said that those who call journalists have strong propaganda skills. ā
"Brother, journalism is a profession. ā
"I see, I said, how can there be so many people with the same name. Jing Ming smiled without feeling embarrassed.
Looking at Jing Ming's simple and unpretentious smile, the madman's heart was shocked. That's right, this is this method, the strongest weapon against embarrassment, fundamentally resolving embarrassment itself, is an extremely powerful method. Crazy people used to be good at this method, but because they used to mix with those normal people, this skill was unfamiliar.
At this time, seeing Jing Ming's performance, the madman couldn't help but associate this quality with the cultivation of the Taoist. Suddenly, he remembered something and asked, "Senior brother, you said that they have a lot of gimmicks, what kind of gimmick do they use, is it very special?"
Jing Ming nodded, "It's really special, they said that tonight, the legendary ghost train will appear here." According to their theory, the ghost train is something that takes mortals to hell and must never be touched. They also took a big risk by summoning the ghost train this time, in addition to wanting to prove the legitimacy of their Dao technique, they also wanted to try to see if they could get anything out of it. ā
The madman was taken aback. "According to them, they summoned the ghost train. And they also want to get their hands dirty with the ghost train. "The news of the ghost train is so spreading, and the madman naturally knows about it. He also discussed it with other professional Taoist priests, because he had not seen it with his own eyes, and most Taoist priests thought it was a rumor. In addition, there are some speculations that it is really something from the underworld, which has manifested in the human world because of some kind of opportunity.
In the world, the six realms are incomplete, and reincarnation collapses. The realm of the gods, the underworld, and the world are all terms that few people will know. And even in the realm of Taoist priests, the Divine Domain is an existence that is so old that it is almost a legend, even more mysterious than the legends of those world gods, and only a few people hold a few extremely obscure information. In Mingzhou, such information is almost non-existent, and it is rumored that perhaps only the gods and Yu Lei of the past dynasties will know the relevant facts. Unlike the Divine Domain, the legends about it have never been interrupted, as it has manifested more than once in history.
For thousands of years, many Taoist priests have said that the underworld does exist, corresponding to the role of the spirit. But what is different from countless years ago is that because of the collapse of reincarnation now, the connection between the underworld and the human world is becoming more and more fading, that is, at a special time and a special place, the underworld will be connected to the human world. As the saying goes, the ghost gate was triggered by such an accident.
Maniacs don't believe much that ghost trains come out of hell, how can there be trains in hell? Could it be that the dead scientists also moved the world forward in the underworld?
In the final analysis, madmen are skeptical of the truth of the underworld. He believed that the underworld was a place of eternal calamity, and that it should be called hell, and that only those evil souls would fall into it and suffer the torment of karmic fire for eternity. Hell is not a big world similar to reality, but a terrifying place like the legendary eighteen layers of hell.
The madman didn't think much about it, since the real body is here, what tricks the other party is playing, whether it is true or not, you will know when the time comes. He had a lot of confidence in teaching those guys a lesson.
Time passed silently by the crowd that was gradually becoming annoying.
As it approached midnight, the crowd suddenly became silent. The madman knows something is different and raises his vigilance to the extreme. I saw that by the side of a Dharma altar that had been built in the small square a long time ago, three Taoist people with beards and ordinary appearances appeared. I have to say that the attire of those people is much more formal than that of madmen, the kind of golden robes, and the front and back are reflected in the Tai Chi Bagua diagram. Others such as what gossip mirror, copper coin sword, five sheng water, blood ink bucket and so on. All the props used by the madman when he pretended to be a Taoist priest appeared here, and even some strange magic weapons that he had never seen before.
"Wow!"
A Taoist priest at the head screamed, and a peachwood sword provoked a talisman, and when he opened his mouth, he sprayed a burst of flames, causing everyone below to burst into an exclamation.
The madman asked Jing Ming, "Senior brother, are all the magic weapons he has there genuine?"
After Jing Ming took a closer look, he said, "It's true that most of them are mortal, but there are indeed some genuine goods, and their mana is not low. Even if they are not the true descendants of the gods, they must have received the guidance of the masters. ā
The madman muttered, "Don't tell me they can actually summon ghost trains." He looked at his watch, it was nearly twelve o'clock in the morning, and the trick on the stage had just begun.
