Comprehension against the sky, creating the Five Thunders in the real world

In contrast.

Wang Baozi's side is much busier.

He led the viewers in the live broadcast deep into the heart of Shanmen Village.

At first, I thought it was just a normal adventure, but I didn't expect to run into other top streamers on the platform, such as Lone Wolf and Handsome Qingyun. These streamers are all experts in the field of wilderness exploration.

With them around, the road ahead will be much easier.

Facing these highly skilled livestreamers, Wang Baozi didn't put on airs. Despite having far more popularity and traffic than them, he didn't act like a big shot in front of them.

"This ancient temple looks quite old."

The lone wolf gazed at the ancient temple before him, his brows furrowing slightly.

The ancient temple remained completely untouched, its original state neglected. The courtyard was carpeted with withered leaves, and amidst the weeds lay an old well covered in cobwebs. The group discovered the temple halfway up the mountain.

According to the village elders, this ancient temple has a history of three hundred years.

The guide was none other than Feng Wu, the eldest son of the village chief.

Feng Wu planned to open a haunted house theme park in Shanmen Village, so he naturally wouldn't miss this excellent promotional opportunity. Their village might not have much else, but it certainly didn't lack these strange and unusual old objects. Of course, he had only recently learned about this ancient temple.

"I can feel the decay of time. What do you think, family members?"

Qingyun inquired.

Unlike a lone wolf searching around.

Qingyun, this handsome young man, chose to interact and chat with the viewers in the live stream.

With his handsome appearance and excellent storytelling skills, he immediately attracted a large audience. Amidst laughter and conversation, the live stream's popularity soared significantly higher than before.

So many people died in Shanmen Village all at once.

This in itself has attracted widespread attention from netizens.

Under these circumstances, their live streams naturally became more popular.

Compared to the shouting and yelling of others, Wang Baozi and Wang Lvdou seemed much calmer.

Wang Baozi even carefully examined the so-called ancient temple.

"The Three Pure Ones of Taoism, Erlang Shen Yang Jian, and Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King??"

Good heavens! Wang Baozi thought to himself, "Good heavens!" This is something else! How dare you say it's not a Taoist temple? This is some kind of ancient temple! If it weren't a Taoist temple, he would have eaten shit upside down.

Its history spans over three hundred years, and perhaps it is much more than that.

Wang Baozi walked to the dilapidated signboard and casually picked up some weeds to sweep it up.

As dust rose.

"Cough cough cough." Wang Baozi couldn't help but cough.

"Couldn't you have given me a heads-up?" Wang Lvdou complained.

"Damn, I'm choking! Could this be poisonous? I feel like I can't breathe."

A strange feeling of suffocation made Wang Lvdou feel uneasy.

There seemed to be an unusual aura permeating the dust.

Once the dust settled, three ancient-style characters came into view of Wang Baozi and his companion.

——Qingfeng Temple.

"Qingfeng Temple, indeed a Taoist temple."

Wang Baozi nodded, showing little surprise on his face.

He already knew that it was a Taoist temple rather than a Buddhist temple.

Just then, Lone Wolf strode over, having been keeping a close eye on Wang Baozi's actions.

"What's going on? Didn't they just say this was a temple?!"

"How did it turn into a Taoist temple? Good heavens, is this your professionalism?"

"They fooled so many people at once."

Have you downloaded the National Anti-Fraud Center app?

Many netizens immediately erupted in discussion.

The lone wolf was accompanied by a professional photographer.

They're all big streamers, so they naturally wouldn't go out alone.

The camera immediately captured the scene, and online debate ensued.

Qingyun was still taking pictures of the scenery not far away.

He was unaware that the so-called temple was actually a Taoist temple.

Since he was unaware of it, his viewers in the live stream had no way of knowing either.

Even though a few sharp-eyed viewers noticed that it was a Taoist temple.

But nobody believes them; instead, they vehemently criticize the speaker. To paraphrase Lu Xun, when corruption becomes the norm, clarity becomes a sin. The current situation is exactly the same.

It's very timely and ironic.

"I've already told you this isn't a Taoist temple, it's a Buddhist temple, why can't you all understand?"

A netizen commented in Qingyun's live stream room.

"Temple my foot! This isn't a temple; it's clearly a Taoist temple!"

"Taoist temples are an indigenous religion of our five-thousand-year-old Chinese civilization, and they're always talking about monks all the time."

The hot-tempered netizens couldn't hold back any longer.

He immediately started arguing with those idiots who called a deer a horse.

Because they were outnumbered and outgunned, they were unilaterally crushed.

"No way, no way, there really isn't someone who can't tell the difference between a temple and a Taoist monastery?"

"This is clearly a temple, but you insist on calling it a Taoist temple. It's laughable! If you're uncultured, don't embarrass yourselves. This has already exposed your illiteracy."

One keyboard warrior said this.

Moreover, there are a lot of people who say this.

This leads to those who know the truth being treated as illiterate and mentally challenged.

As Lu Xun once said, arguing with a fool is pointless.

Some people are still arguing their case, while others are sitting on the sidelines watching the fight unfold.

It's pointless; arguing with fools is a waste of time. They'll never believe what others say, they'll stubbornly stick to their own opinions, and they're sure they're right. They think they're right even when they're wrong, which isn't really a bad thing.

There is nothing to say about this.

People can not escape from doing wrong.

But the key is trying to convince those who are right of their fallacies.

……

Qingyun is clearly unaware of the various comments circulating online.

He was also sharing the history and culture of the area with netizens.

Of course, all of this was just something he made up on the spot.

Ironically, people believe his fabricated stories, as if whoever makes the video is right.

Those who believed his nonsense were completely convinced of it.

Others who do not believe are considered heretics by them.

"There's no need to be so xenophobic. What era are we living in? Why are we still arguing about Taoism and Buddhism?"

"Buddhism is indeed a foreign religion, but after so many years of development, it has become one of the two major religions in China, and can be considered our national religion."

There's no need to belittle one and praise the other.

"What is, is; why argue about it?"

"If it's a temple, then it's a temple. Why insist on arguing about it being a Taoist temple?"

At first glance, it seems to make a lot of sense.

An uninformed person might mistake him for an expert.

"I'll follow you if you write a lot." Someone downstairs immediately posted a new comment.

"You wrote the most words, so you must be the most right. Yeah, I'm following you. Whether we become famous depends on you." Many netizens checked in and occupied the top spots, agreeing with what this guy said.

at the same time.

It differs from Qingyun's style.

After realizing his mistake, Lone Wolf immediately apologized to the viewers in the live stream.

"This is indeed a Taoist temple. I misjudged it earlier. Please forgive me, everyone."

That's what the lone wolf said.

This is a very normal thing.

If you're wrong, just admit it; there's nothing more to say.

But everything is subject to comparison; comparison reveals the gap.

For a moment, Lone Wolf was completely bewildered, as the live chat was filled with praise for his upright character.

what's the situation?
The lone wolf and the photographer stared at each other in bewilderment.

He had no idea that netizens spoke so highly of his character.

After a while, Lone Wolf finally figured out the reason. He couldn't help but look at Qingyun, who was leisurely strolling not far away, with a strange gaze.

"There's no such thing as a peaceful and carefree life; it's all thanks to the contrast provided by our peers. Thank you so much."

Lone Wolf couldn't help but think this to himself.

Finally, he turned his gaze to Wang Baozi, who was standing to the side.

It has to be said, she truly lives up to her reputation as a top-tier streamer; her perspective is indeed different from that of ordinary people.

No wonder he was able to see through the Japanese conspiracy at a glance last time.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a deep sense of respect.

Lone Wolf once even suspected that Wang Baozi became famous through hype.

He felt that Wang Baozi only became popular because of good luck.

They believe that if you stand at the right place at the right time, even a pig can fly.

It now appears that the situation is far more complicated than he thought; Wang Baozi truly possesses genuine talent and ability.

At least they won't make the same basic mistakes as Qingyun.

His performance in all aspects was commendable.

Even after becoming a top streamer, he remains humble.

He was completely unpretentious and showed no signs of putting on airs. This was something that Lone Wolf truly admired.

Of course, Lone Wolf didn't know the real reason why Wang Baozi became popular.

If he knew that Wang Baozi had nearly lost his life in the previous incident...

No one could be arrogant like that. In a way, he still owed Lin Beichen his life.

If it weren't for Lin Beichen's help, Wang Baozi would have been dead long ago.

Knowing his own situation best, Wang Baozi never believed that success was solely due to personal effort. He only wanted to find Lin Beichen and offer him a generous reward as a token of his gratitude.

Money is indeed vulgar.

He could not repay the debt of saving his life with money.

Wang Baozi had never had such a thought.

He simply wanted to express his gratitude to Lin Beichen.

But in other respects, he felt he couldn't be of much help.

I really can't think of any other way to repay a debt of gratitude besides money.

To be honest, he felt quite guilty, even feeling that expressing gratitude with money was an insult to Brother Lin Beichen. Of course, Lin Beichen was unaware of his thoughts. If he had known, he would have been happy to be "insulted" a few more times—how could repaying a debt of gratitude with money be vulgar? This was the greatest sincerity.

Are there any taboos in Taoist temples?

Lone Wolf tentatively asked Wang Baozi.

Now he dares not underestimate Wang Baozi.

Faced with Lone Wolf's question, Wang Baozi shook his head and said:

"I'm not as capable as you think. I only know this is a Taoist temple, nothing else." He spoke the truth without any pretense. But the more humble he was, the more Lone Wolf felt that he was a man of great talent.

"I'm not sure about the taboos, but it's best to avoid touching those things."

"Understood, I will do as instructed." Lone Wolf nodded seriously, keeping the words firmly in mind. Since Wang Baozi had warned him not to touch anything recklessly, he would be careful with his words and actions to avoid getting into trouble out of curiosity. Better safe than sorry.

Seeing that the lone wolf was completely obedient to him,
Wang Baozi felt quite helpless.

Do I really have the aura of a king?
A few casual words can convince people.

But given Lone Wolf's attitude, he couldn't tell him directly.

He couldn't very well admit his shortcomings and say he was worthless; he just couldn't bring himself to say that. Besides, he enjoyed being respected, and the more he felt that way, the more he admired Brother Lin Beichen—all thanks to that benefactor.

No one knows what secrets this Taoist temple holds.

Qingyun, oblivious to the dangers, continued to make irreverent jokes about ghosts and gods.

He only realized his mistake about the temples and Taoist monasteries afterward.

He simply offered a perfunctory apology for his misjudgment.

Facing the viewers in the live stream, he only said one dismissive remark:

Please do not attribute fan behavior to the streamer.

With just one simple sentence, he absolved himself of all responsibility.

It must be said that Qingyun handled the situation quite well, and many netizens secretly applauded her.

"I knew this was a Taoist temple all along, but nobody believed me. It's ridiculous."

"How foolish and ignorant!"

"You believe everything the streamer says?"

"You guys don't actually believe that the anchor is always right, do you?"

A netizen with the ID "A wise man does not fall in love" posted a thought-provoking comment.

Many netizens fell into deep thought.

They all realized the folly of their previous actions.

Some people chose to remain silent, trying to pretend that nothing had happened.

Someone publicly apologized and took responsibility for their previous mistakes.

Some people even changed their online aliases and pretended nothing had happened!

Just a moment ago they were saying this was a temple, and now they're siding with the Taoist temple and attacking others.

"Is this 'wise man' upstairs the same idiot who called this place a temple before?"

"This ID looks familiar; he was the one who cursed the most before."

"Please remove 'seems like,' thank you."

Someone noticed something was wrong.

Upon hearing this, resourceful netizens immediately took action.

The ID "A wise man does not fall in love" has had all its statements exposed.

He truly deserves to be called a wise man.

His comprehension ability is indeed far beyond that of ordinary people.

Even if their previous statements were wildly wrong, they can still argue their point without batting an eye.

You think wise people are foolish?

The wise laugh at you for not even having underwear left.

Perhaps this person is truly wise.

Or perhaps it's the kind of person who appears foolish but is actually wise.

Why do we say that? Let's see what the experts in the comments section have to say.

Although the saying "wise men don't fall in love" has contained many unreliable statements,

However, he quickly rectified the situation, deleting all inappropriate remarks as soon as the tide turned.

Even if there are screenshots as evidence, so what?

Not all netizens believe the screenshots.

Many people still try to whitewash the saying "wise men don't fall in love".

They say fame brings trouble, and that some people are deliberately trying to smear you.

In fact, the owner of this ID does make a living by generating traffic.

Those who know him know that this guy often tries to ride the coattails of various trending topics.

There have been some blunders in the past, but they were always completely covered up by online trolls.

He's the one who criticizes others.
He's also the one who praises others for their excellence.

He would not hesitate to contradict himself if the winds of change shifted.

Faced with overwhelming evidence, he remained unconcerned, because there would always be people who "believe" him. That's enough; let those who don't believe him hurl their insults.

At least in his view,

People who criticize you are also a valuable asset.

Negative publicity is still publicity; praise or criticism doesn't matter, as long as it generates buzz.

The turmoil subsided quickly.

Netizens suggested that the streamers stay overnight at the Taoist temple.

Lone Wolf and Qingyun had no objections and readily agreed.

The only exception is Wang Baozi.

It can be said that once bitten by a snake, one is afraid of a well rope for ten years.

He was extremely reluctant to stay overnight at the Taoist temple.

However, he couldn't resist the enthusiastic donations from the audience. He didn't want to give in, but the amount they gave was simply too much. Faced with such generous donations, he found it difficult to refuse.

If one rejects the audience's enthusiasm due to psychological trauma...

It's likely that they will find it difficult to establish themselves in the live streaming industry in the future.

Wang Baozi has a clear understanding of himself. The reason his viewers in the livestream room are called "family" is because they are his bread and butter. His income depends entirely on their support. Don't be fooled by his current success; it's all thanks to his vast online community. (End of Chapter)
