The prince dotes on his wife: a reborn peasant woman is not easy to mess with

Zhou Xiaoyuan observed the village chief's reaction and understood. She nodded to Xia Yechen, indicating that he was ready to take action.

Xia Yechen immediately understood what she meant, and he began to look around for a rope that could be used to tie the village chief.

At the same time, Zhou Xiaoyuan continued to interrogate the village chief, "Do you think you can pass without speaking? We will find evidence."

Upon hearing this, the village chief began to look panicked. He looked around as if looking for an opportunity to escape. However, Xia Yechen had already found the rope, rushed over quickly, and tied the village chief tightly.

"Do you have anything else to say?" Zhou Xiaoyuan asked coldly.

The village chief glared at Zhou Xiaoyuan and Xia Yechen angrily, and suddenly said: "You will not end well!"

Zhou Xiaoyuan and Xia Yechen looked at each other, knowing in their hearts that these were the village chief's angry words. They paid no heed to his threats and continued looking for evidence.

Through the villagers' speeches, Zhou Xiaoyuan learned that the village chief was a Buddhist believer. She thought to herself that maybe this could be the key to unlocking the secret behind the village chief.

So, she and Xia Yechen decided to go to the village chief's home to investigate.

In the village chief's home, Zhou Xiaoyuan found a pile of books and scriptures related to Buddhism, as well as some mysterious spells and instruments.

These items made her suspicious, and she began to wonder if the village chief was using religion to carry out some kind of conspiracy under the guidance of a temple or a senior monk.

During in-depth investigation, Zhou Xiaoyuan accidentally discovered a letter. The letter was written by a mysterious person and seemed to be a reply to the village chief.

The content of the letter mentioned a mysterious temple fair and a method that can make people live forever.

The magic power of old.

Zhou Xiaoyuan immediately realized that this temple fair was likely to be closely related to the village chief's behavior.

After Xia Yechen learned the news, he decided to go to the temple fair to investigate.

They found that there were many believers in this temple, and they all longed for immortality and hoped to be blessed by the master.

Xia Yechen observed for a while and found that the behavior of these believers was very strange. They seemed to be controlled by some kind of power and lost their self-awareness.

"These people have been brainwashed." Xia Yechen whispered, "They are controlled by the so-called master."

But the village chief has always relied on this method to deceive the villagers and obtain a large amount of property, which was actually given to the mysterious man.

Xia Yechen felt that the situation was bad and ordered people to post notices in the capital, warning not to let more innocent people be deceived.

However, many people came to report the crime. Many elderly people at home were deceived and defrauded a lot of money. Xia Yechen immediately went to investigate.

But the temple fair has been closed for many days, and it is possible that he has taken the money and fled away.

Zhou Xiaoyuan decided to disguise herself as a believer and learn more about the temple fair. She found an older believer with whom she became familiar.

This believer's name is Grandma, who is a frequent visitor to temple fairs and has deep faith in the master. Zhou Xiaoyuan gradually learned more secrets about the temple fair through communicating with her grandmother.

"Grandma, you worship Buddha so devoutly, you must know the master very well, right?" Zhou Xiaoyuan asked tentatively.

Grandma smiled mysteriously, "Little girl, are you interested in our master? I can tell you that he is a real practitioner who can communicate with supernatural beings, ghosts, and eliminate evil spirits for people."

Disaster relief. "

Zhou Xiaoyuan pretended to be very interested, "Really? What kind of spells does he have?"

Grandma quietly approached Zhou Xiaoyuan and whispered in her ear, "He has a mysterious spell that can make people immortal. I once saw him summon gods from the air when he did it."

Zhou Xiaoyuan was secretly amused, but she didn't show it. She continued to ask her grandma, "Where does the master live?"

Grandma looked around with some vigilance, "I don't know about this. The master's whereabouts are mysterious and he usually doesn't reveal his residence easily."

"However, I know that he usually does it at temple fairs. You can go find him there."

Zhou Xiaoyuan thanked her grandmother and left the temple fair. She was secretly glad that she had successfully disguised herself and obtained such important information. She decided to tell Xia Yechen the news immediately.

After listening to Zhou Xiaoyuan's narration, Xia Yechen's face turned gloomy. He knew that this master must be a dangerous liar, and that his actions had seriously harmed the interests of the villagers.

He decided to go to the temple fair with Zhou Xiaoyuan immediately to reveal the true face of this master.

When they arrived at the temple fair, it was already dark. The two sneaked into the temple fair quietly, looking for the master.

They found that the temple was very eerie, and the air was filled with the smell of incense candles. They saw the master doing the practice, surrounded by a group of believers.

Zhou Xiaoyuan and Xia Yechen observed for a while and found that the master's movements were very strange, as if he was deliberately showing off his magic.

They saw that the master had no real power, but was just performing. These believers were mesmerized by his performance

, convinced of his words.

"This guy is so abominable." Xia Yechen said angrily, "He actually used people's beliefs to deceive them."

Zhou Xiaoyuan also felt angry and helpless, "These people are too simple-minded and can be easily deceived."

The identities of Xia Yechen and Zhou Xiaoyuan were almost discovered, and they broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, they responded tactfully and finally reported the name of the village chief and survived.

After a while, the master seemed to notice something and showed many tricks.

In fact, these tricks are commonly used by charlatans, and Xia Yechen saw through them at a glance. He stood up to deny the master's divine power and made the master lose his face.

"Who are you?" the master asked coldly, "Dare you question my ability?"

Xia Yechen smiled secretly in his heart. He knew that the master was just a liar, so he decided to expose the conspiracy.

He shouted: "You are a liar! You use people's beliefs to defraud them of their money. You make them lose their judgment!"

When the master heard Xia Yechen's words, his expression changed, but he quickly regained his composure. He sneered and said: "Young man, you have to be careful what you say, I am the savior here."

The atmosphere at the scene became tense instantly, and believers began to gather around Xia Yechen and Zhou Xiaoyuan. They started pushing and shoving the two of them, and the scene was chaotic.

"We have to get out of here quickly." Zhou Xiaoyuan said, "otherwise we will be trapped here."

Xia Yechen nodded, but he knew they couldn't leave like this. He decided to take action to stop the master from continuing to deceive the villagers.

He said loudly: "You

Don't believe this liar! He is using your faith to defraud you of your money! "
