"Maybe he would get into a fight with someone outside that night, and he would probably be fired."

Chen Duo nodded heavily. Seeing her serious look, she probably took it seriously.

The veins on Liao Zhong's temples were bulging: "You little bastard, don't call Duo'er weird things!"

Hu Xiuwu was in high spirits after stabbing Liao Zhong in the back. It was because he had hurriedly called Duo'er and himself back, interrupting their wonderful time alone.

This is retribution (revenge).

Hu Xiuwu happily opened the document in front of him and read it quickly.

After reading the entire document from beginning to end, Hu Xiuwu smacked his lips, feeling somewhat disappointed:

"I thought Zeng Zijie had figured out some good way to transcend the shackles of faith and pick up the forgotten gods from the long river of time."

"I didn't expect that he would use such a stupid method."

That’s right, deifying oneself as a human being is a stupid way, and it’s also an old way.

Liao Zhong didn't know much about this: "Please explain it in detail."

Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Huanan, but I didn’t expect that the evil master Bu Xin was also from Huanan. I don’t know when and how he got involved with Zeng Zijie.

South China is too deeply involved in this incident. There is no guarantee that Zeng Zijie and his people do not have any plans in South China. Liao Zhong takes this very seriously.

"To be deified as a human being, one must use one's body to carry incense and worship. It is easy for one to be brainwashed by the incense and worship into the image in the minds of the world. Just like the ancestors of the Lion Association used the thoughts of thousands of people to modify the image of the mythical beast, the auspicious lion."

"But people's hearts are also changeable and unpredictable. Even people themselves find it difficult to see through their own nature, let alone how others see them. Different standpoints may lead to different views. It is even possible that conflicting standpoints may lead to contradictory views, which is why there is a saying that one person's enemy is my hero."

"The image of God in the minds of the world is fragmented. If it is just a clay sculpture or a wooden statue, without any thoughts or ideas, and just passively receiving worship and incense, it is of course not a big deal, but if it is a normal person, it will drive people crazy."

"Our predecessors have tried this approach before. How do you think the ancestors of various schools came up with the idea of ​​immortals descending to the earth?"

"But why did it become a god after death?"

After Tu Tu finished speaking a long string of words, Hu Xiuwu paused to let Liao Zhong digest the information.

Liao Zhong was not stupid either. After Hu Xiuwu pointed out the trick, he did gain something:

“So, in his description of the scriptures, there are some very down-to-earth descriptions. Is that his way of redeeming his own consciousness?”

"That's right. You know, for all these years, only the White Lotus Sect dared to use the human body deification method. However, the cruelty of the White Lotus Sect's methods of cultivating saint sons and saint daughters is no less than that of the Medicine Immortal Society's cultivation of Gu-bo holy children."

Like the Medicine Immortal Society, the White Lotus Sect also needs a White Lotus Saint Son, who is responsible for attacking cities and strongholds, spreading the name of the Mother of No Birth, and strengthening the faith of believers.

But just like the Medicine Immortal Society, knowing the dangers of faith (poison), the leader certainly won't do it himself.

The White Lotus Society selects newborn babies with outstanding talents and designates them as holy children, saying that they are the incarnation of a white lotus. In this way, the originally illusory belief has an outlet and a real spokesperson.

The child's ignorant consciousness as a human being was washed away by the mighty and surging incense.

The infant died and the Son was born.

There are real miracles in the religion, and after the miracles, faith becomes more firm, forming a positive cycle.

As long as the White Lotus Sect has a certain scale, there will definitely be an extraordinary person of at least heroic level in charge, so the White Lotus is so difficult to extinguish, like an evil vine that can never be burned out.

Seeing Hu Xiuwu talking about the Medicine Fairy Society in front of Chen Duo, Liao Zhong looked at Chen Duo worriedly, afraid that she would recall the painful past.

But Chen Duo had no expression and still looked calm, as if Hu Xiuwu was not talking about her. She was still a thoughtless puppet at the time, without any thoughts of her own, and of course could not feel what pain was.

Can a puppet feel pain? Is it still a puppet that can feel pain?

Seeing that Hu Xiuwu and Chen Duo were both calm, Liao Zhong sighed.

As expected, the two of them truly understood and were attracted to each other, and he still didn't understand their children's thoughts.

Am I really old and there is a generation gap between me and these kids?

Ignoring Liao Zhong's sudden overflow of emotions and self-pity, he was just a father who had a midlife crisis and found himself old. There was nothing worthy of attention. Hu Xiuwu continued to speculate:

"The person who wrote this report is right. If there are only a few thousand people who believe in something, it is not enough to support a person who can influence the celestial phenomena. There must be at least hundreds of thousands of people who believe in something to be as powerful as Zeng Zijie has shown."

Chapter 200 Foreign Aid

Things were strange, and many doubts were left unexplained. Liao Zhong was upset and wanted to light a cigarette to burn away his worries, but he glanced at Chen Duo and finally just blew out his frustration in the form of a breath of foul air, just like blowing out clouds and smoke:

"I'm going to have a good chat with Huang Yuanbiao."

"Things that the Lions have been hiding must be revealed."

The Lions Club helped them a lot during the war years, so before there was solid evidence proving that the Lions Club was involved, Liao Zhong gave the Lions Club some face and did not delve into the secrets of the Lions Club. But now it has been confirmed that the masked man is Zeng Zijie, and together with the evil master Bu Xin from South China, the Lions Club has to give an explanation to Nadutong.

Hu Xiuwu asked in confusion, "Why don't Duo'er and I go to Chancheng this time? Why don't we just go find Wang Wanghu directly?"

Chen Duo also looked at Liao Zhong, and it was obvious that she also hoped to go to Chan City with Hu Xiuwu again.

Oh, it's enough to let you go once, but you still dare to go further, you little brat.

Liao Zhong flatly rejected their requests.

Chen Duo's originally bright eyes dimmed, like a flower that withered due to lack of sunshine and rain. She lowered her head and lost her former beauty.

Liao Zhong hated this scene the most, but this time he did not let Chen Duo and Hu Xiuwu go to Chancheng, not only out of selfishness, but also for objective reasons. He explained to Chen Duo:

"No, it's not that simple. After you confirmed that Zeng Zijie was the suspect who stole the national treasure, I sent people to secretly monitor the Lion Club and Wang Wanghu."

"This morning, an urgent report came from Chan City that Wang Wanghu was missing. When the Lion Club members were training in the back mountain, the people who were watching observed that the Lion Club members suddenly became agitated. The Lion Club members spread out like stars, searching all over the mountain, searching the hill back and forth several times. It seemed that they were looking for something."

"But they worked hard all night and finally came down the mountain in dejected mood. Even Huang Yuanbiao had a grim look on his face. And according to the people who were following them, Wang Wanghu was not among those who came down the mountain."

"Disappeared into thin air in the mountains, no trace left. Sound familiar?"

What role did Wang Wanghu, the person who first provided them with intelligence, play in these matters?

Hu Xiuwu's eyes showed surprise: "So Wang Wanghu is the one who is playing tricks. He first tricked his apprentice into becoming a god, and then borrowed his power?"

"Isn't this the perfect Bai Lian style?"

"How can he guarantee that Zeng Zijie will listen to him?" Liao Zhong asked, "How did Bai Lian guarantee that the Holy Child would obey the leader's orders?"

"Depending on faith," Hu Xiuwu explained, "When they spread the faith, they placed the leader's status above the holy child, and the holy child should obey the leader."

"But there is no record of this in the scriptures found in Gajia Village."

Liao Zhong said slowly: "Then why do you think Wang Wanghu told us Zeng Zijie's whereabouts?"

Liao Zhong's repeated reminders finally made Hu Xiuwu react:

"You mean, the two of them are not actually in the same group, or Zeng Zijie has discovered that something is wrong with him and wants to turn the situation around, so he deliberately developed believers in Yunnan Province and spread the scriptures that he modified."

"Yes, I think so too." Liao Zhong nodded. He thought the same as Hu Xiuwu, and then his eyes showed murderous intent, but this murderous intent was not directed at Hu Xiuwu:

"The reason why the old man told us Zeng Zijie's situation is probably because he found that Zeng Zijie wanted to escape from his control and took action. This time, he used our hands to destroy the anchor that Zeng Zijie used to anchor his thoughts."

The most crucial thing is that this is an open conspiracy. As long as Nadutong knows that someone is misleading the people, it is impossible to sit idly by.

Hu Xiuwu said: "But if the events of Gajia Village and other villages have nothing to do with Wang Wanghu, then where did he gather so much faith power to create such a powerful human god?"

"In the final analysis, we still have to find Wang Wanghu first. As long as we catch him, we can get everything out of him."

This is Mr. Liao's biggest headache now. Nadutong currently has no clues pointing out where Wang Wanghu has gone. He can only send people to his hometown and then check his relatives and friends and try his luck with the bank statements.

We must find Wang Wanghu as soon as possible, otherwise it will be even more difficult if he is allowed to meet up with Zeng Zijie.

If an old wolf gets help from a vicious wolf, the flock of sheep will be in trouble.

Hu Xiuwu asked Liao Zhong in confusion: "When I was in the Northeast, I saw... ahem, I heard that Nadutong can use electronic eyes to track the whereabouts of the target. As long as he shows his face, he will be discovered. South China is a place with developed economy and technological enlightenment. Can't Nadutong in South China do it?"

Liao Zhong said flatly: "Impossible, the current technology has not reached this stage, even foreign technology has not reached this stage."

As the dual person in charge of the South China Bunker and Nadutong, Liao Zhong is qualified to make such an inference.

Liao Zhong continued, "I don't know how the Northeasterners did it, but they definitely didn't rely solely on technology. There must be some extraordinary people involved."

"It is very likely that this was achieved based on computer technology combined with the special abilities of some innate supernatural being."

Liao Zhong's words reminded Hu Xiuwu of the mysterious and witty thank-you text message he and Hu Bayi received from a garbled number on the train from the northeast to Sijiu City.

"So, that text message was sent to me and my brother by that alien who can monitor the entire Northeast?"

"But you did remind me."

Since he was helpless, he might as well seek help from outside.

Liao Zhong flipped through the phone book in his mobile phone, found a phone number he hadn't called for a long time, and dialed it.

嘟,

The call was quickly connected, and Liao Zhong laughed out loud: "Hello, is this Lao Gao? I'm Liao Zhong from South China."

"···What are you talking about? I can't chat with you if I have nothing to do."

Liao Zhong's tone was not that of a brother, and it even made people feel that he was a little aggrieved.

After Gao Lian apologized to him in confusion, Liao Zhong got to the point: "Speaking of which, I heard that you have a capable person under you who can use the Internet to monitor the entire district, right?"

"Oh, it's your temporary worker." Liao Zhong suddenly realized, a little surprised, and also felt that he was in the process of cleaning.

"Lao Gao, I have a problem here. Can you ask your temporary worker to help me?"

(In the original novel, temporary workers can indeed be seconded. When Liao Zhong destroyed the Medicine Fairy Society, he borrowed Lao Meng from the southwest, but the prerequisite was that the person in charge of the region agreed.)

"Okay? That's great. We Northeastern men are really nice..."

"Gosh, Gao Lian, you actually asked me for money. You asked for as much as you wanted! Gao Lian, you bastard! Are you still my brother?"

The talks were going well, but Liao Zhong suddenly started cursing, saying that Gao Lian was a bad person and that his price was too high.

Hu Xiuwu and Chen Duo were watching the show on the side and saw Liao Zhong's ugly smile suddenly turn dark. His face was trembling and even the scar on his face was shaking with it, making his face look even more hideous and ferocious, not like a good person.

"Forget it," Gao Lian refused to give in, so Liao Zhong had to take a step back. "Okay, I agree. I will apply to the board of directors to transfer 10% of the budget for next year's South China to the Northeast. You are so good, Old Gao, you were not like this before. Why do you look so greedy now?"

"Okay, stop explaining and get your people to help."

"Huh? What do you mean she's already here?"

Liao Zhong didn’t understand what Gao Lian meant. Could it be that the temporary workers in the Northeast also knew how to escape and move thousands of miles away in an instant?

But Gao Lian had no intention of explaining to Liao Zhong and just hung up the phone.

Ding, ding, ding,

Just when Liao Zhong was confused and thought Gao Lian was playing a trick on him because of what happened just now, his cell phone started to ring with several text messages.

Liao Zhong opened his phone and a string of text messages popped up like bullets.
