Shi Zhener's appearance made both people present break out in cold sweats.
It's like a tiger. Knowing that the tiger is there is different from the tiger walking right up to you.
For Lin Hai, just the character of Xichuan women alone was enough to make him suffer even if Shi Zhen'er took his identity into consideration.
For Bai Ang, he simply felt that he did not check the almanac before going out, and that this year was not a good year for him, otherwise why would he be so unlucky today.
Every topic that Lin Hai talked about was very important to him, and he just wanted to say something that could touch Lin Hai's heart, but the person involved came and he was caught by Shi Zhener.
Not to mention that Shi Zhen'er is definitely going to marry Lin Hai, just based on her other identities, she can strangle herself to death with just a glance.
Thinking of this, Bai Ang couldn't help but complain. He hadn't chosen to meet Lin Hai today casually. He was wandering the streets, wondering when would be the best time to meet Lin Hai, when he ran into a Taoist priest.
You know, after years of war and the almost insane use of manpower during the reconstruction of Qinghe, basically no religious people could survive in the territory of Qinghe.
Even monks were forced to return to secular life by Lin Hai's order. After all, what Qinghe needed at the time was labor, not religious believers who were supported without any output.
But this Taoist priest just walked on the road in a swagger, which was very suspicious. The most suspicious thing was that all the patrolling yamen runners and guards nearby acted as if they didn't see him and ignored him at all.
After Qinghe got back on track, Lin Hai once wanted to use the cloak of religion to package his explosives, so he lifted the restrictions on religion. In theory, believers of religions recognized by the Qinghe Government Affairs Department could live freely in Qinghe.
It’s a pity that no believers from other places dare to try it. What if they are caught and forced to mine once they enter Qinghe’s territory?
In this chaotic world, why did I become a monk?
Isn’t it because after becoming a monk you don’t have to work, someone will support you, you don’t have to serve in the army or pay taxes?
If I wanted to work, I would have gone to work back then. How could you arrest me?!
Therefore, there are basically no religious people in the entire area ruled by Qinghe.
This was Yan Zipei's best trick back then, having his men disguise themselves as Taoist priests, Taoist nuns, monks, and nuns to infiltrate the enemy's territory. This was the real reason why he was wiped out by Wang Zuo as soon as he used it in Qinghe.
Otherwise, how do you think Wang Zuo, the newbie, could defeat Yan Zipei, who has extremely rich work experience and no lower body problems and can continue to concentrate on work?
After Bai Ang took the initiative to make friends, the Taoist priest revealed that his name was Wang Maoduan and that he was a Taoist priest who had been met by Qinghe Earl Lin Hai. In addition, Qinghe Earl had taken the initiative to promise that he could move freely in the Qinghe area wearing a Taoist robe.
!!!
This is very important.
Although Bai Ang knew that this world was godless and the rulers were all atheists.
But it is difficult for people in the world to regard metaphysics and theology as exactly the same.
In other words, there are no gods in this world, and it has no direct connection with whether this master has a certain level of metaphysical skills.
If someone is able to tell fortunes, it doesn’t necessarily mean that he or she has gained this ability by praying to gods. Could it not be that the ability is the result of their own hard work?
You say it's impossible?
How is that impossible?
If everyone could understand it, it wouldn't be called metaphysics.
So Bai Ang was overjoyed.
This Taoist priest named Wang Maoduan is obviously the kind of Taoist priest employed by Lin Hai to gain a glimpse into the secrets of heaven. No wonder the soldiers and runners in the city don't care about his appearance.
This is something that can only be encountered by chance.
Bai Ang immediately revealed his identity, making it clear that he was not an outsider, and then presented a valuable gift, hoping that the Taoist priest could help him calculate which day would be the most appropriate to meet Lin Hai.
To be honest, their calculations are quite accurate.
Look, isn’t Lin Hai free today?
Since the others were not around, Lin Hai had plenty of time to chat with himself.
In this regard, it is indeed an opportunity that cannot be missed.
Being able to have enough time to communicate with your boss without being disturbed by other colleagues is what every person who wants to climb the career ladder wants very much.
No matter what, today had some twists and turns, but overall it went smoothly, until Shi Zhener showed up.
Now Bai Ang’s only thought is that if he is to die, he must not die now. He must first go out and find Wang Maoduan and fight with his life.
"Zhen'er, don't scare him. He doesn't understand me, don't you?"
Lin Hai quickly tried to smooth things over.
No matter what, Bai Ang is an important official. Such a person can be dealt with with an excuse, but it must be a reasonable excuse that is recognized by the world. If Shi Zhen'er wants to kill Bai Ang in anger, it will be very bad for the image of Shi Zhen'er and Lin Hai.
Of course, it would be even worse for Bai Ang's health.
"Brother Lin, he..."
Shi Zhen'er sat down beside Lin Hai, feeling very wronged. She pouted and was angry.
Seeing this scene, Lin Hai knew that there was no problem.
Shi Zhen'er, who always holds herself to be a strong woman, would never show such an expression of a little girl who has been wronged. It can be seen that she was just having a little fun. Well, it's okay as long as she doesn't go too far.
If Shi Zhen'er said nothing and went straight to Lin Hai to discuss business, pretending not to see Bai Ang, Lin Hai knew that would be a sign that Bai Ang was dead.
"Don't scare him. He's old, and if you scare him to death here, I'll have to explain to his widow and orphan."
