Chapter 93: Liar
"Master Lin, what do you think?"
When Peng Laosha was complacent, he made a provocation to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi clapped his palms and praised him without hesitation, "Master Peng is really skilled, and the technique of asking for rain has opened my eyes and admired!"
He did not debunk Peng Laosha.
This scene, it is useless to debunk it.
It's better to rely on the facts than on the lips.
Wait for tomorrow, and the victory or defeat will be known.
"Hehe, begging for rain is my Peng Laosha's housekeeping skill, and it has always been difficult to meet opponents," Peng Laosha became more and more proud, and he didn't take Lin Yi in his eyes, "Master Lin, I don't know what method you use to ask for rain?"
"Or just get down on your knees and beg for mercy?"
Lin Yizhi smiled, "Master Peng's curiosity is really heavy, as the saying goes, everyone has their own methods, everyone has their own tricks, as for how I ask for rain, I'll see tomorrow." ”
Peng Laosha sighed, "So, Master Lin plans to ask for rain tomorrow?"
Lin Yi nodded.
Peng Laosha laughed dryly, then climbed to the altar, raised his arms and shouted: "Everyone, today I Peng Laosha's ability can be seen clearly, it can be said that it is unsatisfactory, and this Master Lin is even more amazing, claiming to be ten times better than me!"
"Hehe, Master Lin is a real peerless master, and he will definitely be able to ask for a rain for Anning County tomorrow!"
In a few words, Lin Yi was put on the fire.
This is not a compliment, it is obviously a killing.
Sure enough, the people looked at each other and fell silent.
His expression was full of doubts and doubts.
It took a long time to come back to his senses.
"What Master Lin?"
"Ten times more powerful than Master Peng?
"Hehe, liar!"
"Master Peng, please continue to pray for rain tomorrow, we can trust you!"
"Yes, with Master Peng here, the drought in Anning County will definitely be resolved. ”
This prayer for rain won Peng Laosha a good reputation.
The people were convinced.
What he said just now deliberately put a high hat on Lin Yi to pull hatred.
If Lin Yi can't ask for rain tomorrow, it will become a big joke.
His heart can be punished!
Peng Laosha not only wanted a wooden sword, but also wanted to humiliate Lin Yi to relieve his grievances.
"Dao Chief, do you really want rain tomorrow?"
Jiang Ming quietly walked to Lin Yi's side and asked.
He knew that Lin Yi would not beg for rain.
If you forcibly set up an altar, you may bring shame on yourself.
Lin Yi nodded, "Now that there is an appointment in advance, how can the poor road retreat!
Seeing that Lin Yi was full of confidence, Jiang Ming didn't ask any more.
In the past few days, Lin Yi instructed him to rebuild the Shuide Xingjun Temple and pay homage to the statue of Shuide Xingjun.
You can just believe in the Taoist, so why worry.
Of course, Jiang Ming hopes that Lin Yi can also succeed in seeking rain.
In this way, there are two masters who pray for rain for Anning County, why worry about the drought!
A night passes.
Day 2.
Jiang Ming came to Lin Yi early and asked how to prepare.
Lin Yi thought about it and asked Jiang Ming to arrange a simple altar.
How simple is it?
It's nothing more than an offering table, a few offerings, an ordinary iron sword, and a few pieces of yellow rune paper.
The offering table is located on the main street in front of the county office.
Shabby like an ordinary person's sacrifice.
Just as the preparations were made, Peng Laosha came with all the disciples, and there was a large group of people in Wuyang and Wuyang, almost fifty or sixty people.
said that he was here to cheer for Lin Yi, but in fact, he showed off his prestige and added pressure to Lin Yi.
"Master Peng, please!"
Jiang Ming took the initiative to greet him.
"It's early for the county commander," Peng Laosha smiled and swept his eyes, "Where is Master Lin?"
Jiang Ming pointed to the Yanei, "I'm preparing to ask for rain." ”
"Yes," Peng Laosha looked at the extremely shabby altar, looked up at the sky again, and saw that the sun was shining, cloudless, and there was no sign of rainfall, and he couldn't help but sneer, "I think Master Lin has a great ability, so that the clear sky can instantly turn into dark clouds and rain rain, haha!"
Jiang Ming smiled awkwardly and didn't say much.
"Tea!"
The servants brought tables and chairs and served tea.
Jiang Ming and Peng Laosha sat outside the ya, drinking tea and chatting while waiting for Lin Yi.
When the people heard that there was another prayer for rain today, they refused to miss it, and they came one after another.
Old and young, men and women, the more crowded they are.
By noon, the front of the yamen was already crowded and bustling.
It is estimated that most of the people in the town came.
Another hour passed, and the sun rose higher and higher, getting hotter and hotter.
Occasionally, a cloud drifted by in the sky, and soon dispersed.
There is no wind and no clouds, and the sun is blazing.
Is there the slightest sign of rain?
It's close to noon.
When everyone was waiting impatiently, Lin Yi finally showed up.
He wore a strange colorful costume and a black mask, like a play performed on a stage.
"Master Lin?"
"It turns out that Master Lin is this weirdo!"
"At first glance, he looks like a liar!"
"Let's take a look first, maybe people have real skills. ”
Lin Yi's appearance made the quiet crowd commotion.
There was a lot of discussion, mostly words of disappointment and contempt.
It seems that few people can trust Lin Yi.
Wait, if Lin Yi can't ask for rain, they will definitely scold Lin Yi for being bloody.
"Master Lin, I believe that you will be able to succeed in seeking rain, congratulations in advance, congratulations!"
Peng Laosha pulled a smiling face, yin and yang strange aura.
He didn't believe that Lin Yi had the ability to ask for rain, so he didn't worry about it.
Lin Yi turned a deaf ear and walked towards the altar.
Jingle Bell!
Objects collide with each other, making a crisp sound.
Like a bird chirping.
Walking to the altar, Lin Yi picked up the long sword, held his arm upside down, and stood in front of him with one hand.
Raise your eyebrows and bow to the heavens first.
After worshipping three times, take out nine standing incense sticks, light them, insert them into the incense burner one by one, and put them in a three-three array.
The big guys all stared at Lin Yi intently, wanting to see what powerful tricks this Master Lin could use.
As a result, Lin Yi didn't come up with any means, and after putting on the incense, he sat cross-legged on the futon, half-closed his eyes, and did not move.
Like a wooden man.
At first, everyone was still patient, and they all waited silently, thinking that Lin Yi was brewing some kind of spell.
But after waiting for half an hour, Lin Yiwu did not move, sitting cross-legged like a pine.
The people couldn't help but be puzzled and restless.
"Why doesn't Master Lin do it?"
"It's still Master Peng, I was dazzled by yesterday's practice, that's the real skill!"
"I said earlier, this bullshit Master Lin is a liar!"
"He doesn't ask for rain at all, I'm still a master of Xinpeng. ”
"Please ask Master Peng to beg for rain and let this strange man get out!"
......
The resentment and cries of the people are getting louder and louder.
In addition, the disciples of the Xuanling Daoist Sect have been fanning the flames in the crowd and saying bad things about Lin Yi, and public opinion was naturally driven, and they raised their arms and shouted one by one, telling Master Lin to get out of here, and asking Master Peng to ask for rain.
Seeing this, Jiang Ming was secretly anxious, and couldn't help but sweat for Lin Yi.
He hastened to order the officials to suppress the people.
It's okay not to suppress it, but if you press it, it will anger the people and confront the officers and soldiers.
There are even rumors who say that the government colluded with swindlers to defraud the people of their money by asking for rain.
This liar is naturally referring to Lin Yi.
