Yuan Mengge looked at the person and replied, "I can manage on my own, don't worry. You don't need to do anything, that's already helping me."
As she was saying this, she was about to continue grabbing the remaining female assistants, but after the believers calmed down, they suddenly became angry that Yuan Mengge was ruining their plans.
But no one stepped forward to stop her; they just looked into the cave.
After she left, the man who had just mentioned his mother's death suddenly spoke up, cursing bitterly:
“I knew they were liars! If it weren’t for them, my mom wouldn’t have stayed home all day burning incense and praying to gods and ghosts instead of seeking treatment for her illness! She thought that would cure her! In the end, she still died from her illness!”
Then, pointing at the believers in front of her, she said, "If that one inside is the real God, why did my mother die? That's a fraud! My mother gave these swindlers all my savings for my wife and her funeral, and she still died. You'd better not be here seeking healing, or you'll end up like my mother!"
“No way! No way! How could the leader be lying to us? He said he is over ninety years old, but he looks like he is fifty. Isn’t that because of the blessing from the god Ara?” one of them said, looking at the man with a suspicious expression.
The man sneered and said, "Have you seen his ID card? Even if he does, it could be fake. You don't know him. He can say whatever age he wants. Anyone can say that. Would I say that too?"
He was doing well at work, and he would send his earnings home so his mother could save them for him to come back and get married.
Last year, a relative suddenly called him, saying that his mother had died and that he should hurry back for the funeral.
He returned home and learned how his mother had died.
He died of illness; he refused to go to the hospital or buy medicine when he was sick.
If she was trying to save money by not wanting to seek medical treatment, that would be understandable.
As a result, his mother's money disappeared. It couldn't be found at home, nor in her bank account. Upon investigation, it was discovered that she frequently withdrew large sums of money, but no one knew what she did with them.
Finally, he saw the altar in his mother's room, which contained a strange statue of a deity, and behind the statue was a small ledger.
The ledger stated that it cost 20,000 just to bring back that statue of a deity, and the various large and small talismans and other items cost several thousand more.
He works hard all year and only earns a thousand or two yuan, but his mother uses it all to buy these weird things.
His relative also told him that his mother had suddenly converted to some kind of religion during that period and was often away from home.
Later, when her condition worsened, her relatives discovered her situation and wanted to take her to the hospital.
She refused to go, saying things like that the god Ara would protect her and cure her illness.
They were also forbidden from telling their son about it.
He was found dead at home a few months later.
After learning how his mother died, the son began investigating the so-called Longevity Cult.
Then he infiltrated as an undercover agent, and that's how he followed them into the mountains to cultivate.
“How could that be? It must be because your mother’s faith wasn’t sincere enough that the god Aro didn’t save her,” one of the believers, who was still a staunch believer in the Longevity Cult, said to him.
Another believer, who also strongly believed in the Longevity Cult, said, "That's right! It must be because your mother didn't pay enough money to the gods, and Aro was not satisfied, which is why he didn't save her!"
Seeing their attitude, the man knew that he couldn't reason with them, so he decided not to continue arguing with them.
"If you want to believe it yourselves, then I don't care. But they killed my mother and swindled so much money from my family, I won't let them get away with it. I've already called the police, and they'll be here soon. I don't care what kind of gods or demons they are! When the police arrive, we'll see what kind of monsters they are!"
The man said this to them in a cold voice, then turned and walked into the cave.
He had just discovered a problem: there were still two people in the cave who hadn't come out—the cult leader and his men.
He originally came here to cause trouble, but he didn't expect that there were others who were in the same boat and wanted to cause trouble as him.
However, the other side went even further, actually arresting all these fraudsters from the Longevity Cult.
That saves him the trouble.
And three days have already passed; it's time for the people outside to come in.
Before he came in, he had made plans with his brothers and friends.
He went undercover first, and then his friends called the police depending on the situation.
If he stays in the mountains for more than three days, his friends outside will report him to the police, claiming he has been kidnapped and is missing, and ask the police to come and rescue him.
Then he went undercover here, and when the police arrived, he would coordinate with them to catch them all in one fell swoop.
Before the police arrived, an unexpected guest appeared.
The man walked to the entrance of the cave and found that the door was closed from the outside and could not be opened from the inside, but could be opened from the outside.
He thought for a moment and concluded that it must have been the uninvited guest who had locked them up, probably trying to imprison the cult leader and his companion inside.
With that in mind, he decided to stay there and prevent others from opening the door.
When the other believers heard him say that he had called the police, their trust in him wavered once again.
Although they do believe in this religion, the government is cracking down on superstition now, and when the police come, that's a different story.
On the other hand, Yuan Mengge actually knew that the man was an undercover agent, because when he went to the toilet in the morning, the cultist who was following him was knocked unconscious by him.
She originally intended to follow and intervene, but then she saw the man make the first move.
So she quietly retreated.
After knocking the cultist unconscious, the man searched his body for something before leaving.
In the end, all she did was carry the unconscious cultist away.
So she felt safe locking Wan Zhijun and the other man in the cave, because she guessed that the man would help her.
The remaining female assistant and a few others were still acting as ineffective bait.
After Yuan Mengge dealt with Wan Zhijun and his companion, she returned to find that these men were still waiting for her to fall into their trap. So, she dragged the men who were scattered behind her assistant one by one into the bushes and dealt with them.
In the end, only the female assistant was left.
The female assistant was walking alone in the remote mountains, wondering why that person hadn't come out to arrest her yet.
She also wanted to see who the other person really was.
As she was walking, a pebble suddenly flew over and hit her on the head.
"Ouch! Who is it!" She covered her head and turned around abruptly.
Yuan Mengge walked out, swinging her slingshot, and looked at her, saying, "You seem to be looking for me, right?"
Upon seeing her appear, the female assistant paused for a moment before realizing what was happening, then suddenly shouted, "He's here! Come and catch him!"
