Many children, many blessings; the twelve ancestral witches forced marriages throughout the primordi

Three hundred li outside Jiangzhou City, the official road was repaired and made extremely smooth.

The black and gold flags of Dashang Group were planted on both sides of the cement road.

Two small figures sat beneath the flagpole.

Lin Ze was dressed in a black brocade robe, with crystal glasses perched on his nose. In front of him were account books, a jade ruler, a seal, and a photo stone.

Lin Xi sat to the side, tossing a coin in her hand.

The two small wings on the copper coin fluttered gently.

Every time she tossed it, the storage bags of passing caravans would involuntarily tremble.

It wasn't robbery.

It is a deterrent.

Three new shops have already been built next to the toll station.

A tea stall.

A hay shop.

A large recycling station.

Su Daji's efficiency is frightening.

The project was only approved yesterday, and today even a sign for a "Buddhist Supplies Consignment Window" has been put up.

Two female immortals sent by the Holy Mother of Wudang were organizing the jade slips in the back, specifically responsible for registering the fines.

Along the official road, several ordinary fishermen carrying fish baskets passed by, and they all consciously went around to the left when they saw the toll station.

One of them was even quietly disciplining his son.

"See? Even gods have to pay to pass by."

"Don't be afraid of monks from other places in the future; ask them if they have tickets first."

The child nodded earnestly.

"Does not having a ticket make you a bad person?"

The fisherman thought for a moment.

"They might be poor."

"But if someone is poor and still wanders around recklessly, they need to be even more careful."

Upon hearing this, Lin Ze made a note on the jade slip with satisfaction.

The grassroots legal education efforts in Dashang have yielded good results.

Lin Xi lay on the table, feeling a little bored.

"Brother, will any more bald monks come today?"

Lin Ze turned a page of the account book.

"The probability is very high."

"Zhunti just got tricked by his father, he won't be well-behaved for long."

"If the Western religion wants to promote Journey to the West, Jiang Liuer must be bound by cause and effect."

Lin Xi's eyes lit up.

"So they'll send you a treasure?"

Lin Ze remained calm.

"Won't."

"Western religions can't even redeem the physical body of Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva now."

"Most of the items delivered are defective."

Lin Xi's face fell.

"Can defective products be penalized?"

Lin Ze looked up at her.

"Substituting inferior goods for superior ones will be punished more severely."

Lin Xi was immediately happy.

She loves this kind of work that's legal, legitimate, and profitable.

Behind the toll booth, several mall managers stood ramrod straight.

Their cultivation levels are not high; most of them are Earth Immortals or Celestial Immortals.

However, he wore a uniform black iron rod at his waist and had the Golden Seal of a Great Merchant engraved on his chest.

This place isn't for them to fight.

It relies on rules.

If anyone dares to make a move, the Nine Provinces Barrier will be cleaved first, followed by the Pangu Palace.

Lin Ze glanced at the sky.

"Pay attention to the Western influence."

Lin Xi nodded.

"Um."

The coin suddenly stopped in mid-air.

The copper coin trembled slightly.

At the end of the official road in the distance, an old monk in gray robes slowly walked towards them.

He carried a bamboo basket on his back, wore straw sandals, and kept his head very low.

He looks like a poor wandering monk.

Ke Linxi wrinkled her nose.

"Bro, it smells good."

Lin Ze adjusted his crystal glasses.

"The fragrance of Buddhist incense is concealed."

"And it's of very poor quality."

The gray-robed old monk was none other than Manjushri.

He had tried his best to suppress his breathing.

Along the way, they avoided city gates, welfare homes, and teahouses, taking only unconventional routes.

But he didn't expect that the tollbooth wasn't a gate.

Along this official road, all the land deeds belong to wealthy merchants.

He went around from the west, where there was a temporary road checkpoint.

Go around the river; there's a ferry ticket booth on the riverbank.

You have to go around the hillside, where there is a sign that reads "Smuggling is prohibited in undeveloped scenic area".

After wandering around for a while, we finally arrived at the main entrance.

Manjushri felt a heavy weight in his heart.

It cannot be exposed.

You must not use your hands.

It can't be said that we were destined to be together.

He silently repeated it three times, then lowered his head and walked forward.

Just before arriving at the tollbooth, Lin Xi raised her small hand.

"stop."

Manjushri stopped.

The little girl's voice was crisp and clear, but his back tensed instantly.

Lin Ze picked up the jade slip.

"Name."

Manjushri lowered his voice.

"My Buddhist name is..."

He suddenly stopped.

His Dharma name cannot be spoken.

It's easy to check once I've said it.

Lin Ze looked up.

"An unnamed monk?"

Manjushri braced himself and said, "I am a hermit cultivator from the mountains, passing through Jiangzhou."

Lin Xi tossed the precious gold coins into the water.

"You're bald."

Manjushri remained silent.

Is being bald a crime?

Lin Ze opened the regulations for the Da Shang Westbound Service Station.

Being bald isn't illegal.

"However, if a bald man carries Buddhist ritual implements into the Jiangzhou key protected area, he needs to register."

Manjushri's heart sank.

"This humble monk has no ritual implements."

Lin Ze picked up the lie detector jade ruler on the table.

The jade ruler is smooth and warm to the touch, with the four small characters "Honest Business Practices" engraved on it.

This is a commercial detector that Lin Ze borrowed from Su Daji.

It's impossible to predict the fate of a sage.

There's enough to test the disguised individuals.

The jade ruler gleamed softly.

Red light.

Lin Xi immediately sat up straight.

He's lying.

Manjushri's heart skipped a beat.

He said in a low voice, "Just a few old things."

Lin Ze made the first entry in the ledger.

"False entry declaration will result in a fine of one thousand top-grade spirit stones."

Manjushri's face twitched.

Punished before even entering the door?

Lin Xi pointed to the bamboo basket.

"Open."

Manjushri did not want to open it.

But the treasure-dropping coin in Lin Xi's hand was already suspended in mid-air.

He recognized the copper coin.

Countless treasures of the Western religion have perished at the hands of this thing.

Manjushri suppressed his anger and put down the bamboo basket.

The basket lid was lifted.

A kasaya with a dull golden sheen.

A nine-ringed tin staff with a shiny gold surface.

Everyone at the tollbooth turned to look.

Lin Xi blinked.

"Wow."

A glimmer of hope had just begun to rise in Manjushri's heart.

The next moment, Lin Xi added a sentence.

"So poor."

Manjushri felt a tightness in his chest.

Lin Ze stood up, picked up the jade ruler used to detect lies, and first touched it on his cassock.

The jade ruler shone with a brilliant red light.

Lin Ze frowned slightly.

"The merit lines are incomplete."

"Secondary stitching of the corners."

"The main defensive array is missing three layers."

"There's also a hidden plot of forced cause and effect."

Manjushri's expression changed.

How come this child was examined so thoroughly?

Lin Ze picked up the nine-ringed tin staff again and tapped it lightly.

The tin staff made a hollow, crisp sound.

Lin Xi covered her mouth.

"Hollow".

Lin Ze looked at Wen Shu.

"You call this a Buddhist ritual implement?"

Manjushri forced himself to say, "This is a protective heirloom."

The lie detector jade ruler is red again.

Lin Xi laughed.

"Brother, he's lying again."

Lin Ze, with a cold expression, wrote rapidly on the jade slip.

"Inferior, counterfeit, and substandard smuggled Buddhist items."

"Not registered."

"No major distributor quality certification."

"Unsafe Explosion-proof Mark".

"No missionary license."

"It contains unapproved causal undercurrents."

"Suspected of inducing minors to accept illegal religious bonds."

Manjushri felt his scalp tingle upon hearing this.

What are these charges?

Lin Ze looked up.

"Who are you planning to give these two items to?"

Manjushri remained silent.

Lin Xi twirled the treasure-dropping coin in her hand.

Beside Manjushri's bamboo basket, a small talisman pouch, hidden very deep, flew out on its own.

The talisman was opened, revealing a rough map of the area near the Jiangzhou Children's Training Institute.

On the map, a small red dot marks "Jiang Liuer".

The tollbooth was quiet.

Lin Xi snorted.

"They've come looking for Jiang Liuer again."

Lin Ze's face darkened.

"The goal is clear."

"The evidence is conclusive."

"The individuals involved are children under the Class A protection of the Dalian Commercial Group."

Manjushri couldn't help but say, "This humble monk is merely giving a gift, not abducting you."

Lin Zeyu waved his ruler.

The red light was blindingly bright.

"lie."

Manjushri was so angry that he almost lost his powers.

Does that jade ruler have a grudge against Western religions?

Why is every sentence in red?

Lin Ze said calmly, "According to the regulations of the Da Shang Xi Xing Comprehensive Service System, if it involves illegal causal binding of minors, the physical evidence should be seized first."

Manjushri felt a tightness in his chest.

"No!"

Lin Xi has already thrown out the treasure-dropping coin.

The copper coin flashed.

The cassock and the staff vibrated simultaneously.

Just as the Buddha's light within Manjushri was about to protect the two magical artifacts, the Treasure-Dropping Coins had already been attached to the hidden threads of cause and effect.

Click.

A soft sound.

The connection between Manjushri and the two ritual implements has been completely severed.

Lin Xi reached out and beckoned.

The cassock and staff obediently flew into her arms.

She glanced down at it, then pushed it toward Lin Ze with disdain.

"Brother, you test it."

Manjushri felt his primordial spirit suddenly empty, and his heart sank.

It’s over.

Before the Buddhist implements even reached Jiang Liuer's hands, they were already in the hands of the Pangu Temple's God of Wealth group.

Lin Ze spread the cassock on the table and took out the seal of the Great Merchant.

"Seizure of physical evidence."

"The suspect is being held temporarily."

"The fine is pending calculation."

Manjushri gritted his teeth.

"This humble monk is from the West..."

He swallowed the words back down his throat.

You must not reveal your identity.

Lin Xi looked at him with a smile.

"Who are you?"

Manjushri held back for a long time.

"A hermit cultivator in the mountains."

The lie detector jade ruler is popular again.

Lin Ze added a note to the ledger.

"The identity declaration was false again."

"Additional penalties."

Manjushri closed his eyes.

He finally understood why the Bodhisattva of Sunlight always seemed drained after redeeming people.

This place doesn't practice Buddhism.

They only talked about the account books.

Lin Ze raised his hand and pushed the cassock and staff to the center of the table.

"Begin the re-examination."

"Lin Xi, prepare the treasure-dropping coins."

"If a hidden backdoor is discovered, dismantle it immediately."

Manjushri suddenly looked up.

The hidden threads of cause and effect within those two Buddhist implements were planted by Cundi himself.

Once it's demolished, Mount Sumeru will definitely sense it.

But Lin Xi had already grasped the treasure coin and was smiling very seriously.

"OK."
