Longjing's intentions were pure; he simply wanted to use the guise of a fool's charade to extract something interesting from these swindlers.
Imagine, when all the swindlers are fooled and embarrassed at the audience, Chairman Gong's moment of glory will naturally arrive, and he will surely overshadow Zhen Yi, becoming the most dazzling "star" in this game.
So he looked at everyone with increasing fervor, and he disguised this gaze very well, making it appear to others as a sharp scrutiny.
The con artists remained silent, all looking at the tallest, naked, masked man.
The fourth brother frowned, remained silent for a moment, then suddenly looked up at Yu Xi and said quietly:
"I'll go first."
I've heard that you enjoy playing as a player, and that you've personally participated in trials and provided some guidance to other players during them. Therefore, I'd like to ask you a question.
"?"
Yu Xi raised an eyebrow and smiled, "This is an examination meeting, not a Q&A session. Are you sure you want to break the examination rules?"
The fourth brother chuckled and said in a strange tone:
“I don’t think I’ve violated the exam rules. The adults said I should use a memory to move you, and what I just said about what I heard is my memory. As for how to move you, that’s my problem.”
What I understand as being moving lies in the emotional shift, and I believe this question will definitely evoke a change in your emotions. Would you... like to hear it?
"......"
Longjing's eyelids twitched slightly. What's wrong? Does the fourth brother not want to act anymore?
But at this moment, he couldn't just walk off the stage and quit, otherwise he'd become the clown again. He could only improvise and applaud the other side's sophistry:
“Very well, sophistry is also the authority of my lord. I sense your piety. Ask away.”
Your piety deserves a response.
"!"
Upon hearing this, the others realized that this was how the examination was conducted, that the rules Yu Xi had mentioned were not all the rules, and that their responses did not have to be rigid.
The con artists instantly perked up, revising their prepared statements while listening intently to the fourth conman's questions.
The naked, masked man stared at the foolish performance for a while, then tentatively asked:
"Since role-playing is an unavoidable topic in the path of [deception], I would like to ask you, when you are playing the role of a player, have there ever been players playing the role of you?"
"!!??"
These words shocked everyone present.
The fourth brother's words were very clear; he was practically blatantly guessing in front of everyone that the fool in front of them might be someone else playing a role. But it was precisely this skeptical attitude that made the other swindlers even more convinced.
They weren't unaware that the two were acting, but the fourth brother's attitude didn't seem fake at all; it was rare to see such a serious look in the other person's eyes.
This only shows that he was unsure of the clown's identity. If even the conman who knows acrobats best doesn't believe the other person is an acrobat, then how could the clown's identity be fake?
Longjing was also stunned, and for a moment he was also a little dazed.
In truth, this question was a perfect assist in establishing the character of the fool, and Longjing should have been happy. However, the problem was that he could see the seriousness in Lao Si's eyes, and considering the feedback from Lao Si's expression, and further analyzing the question...
hiss--
You actually believed me, buddy?
I've already made faces at you, do you still think I'm fooling you?
You probably don't think Zhenyu is impersonating my Longjing tea, do you?
At this moment, Longjing remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was overjoyed.
He never imagined things would turn out this way, but he has to admit that the current situation is very favorable for his performance.
So this master conman, who was well-versed in human nature, did the opposite and gave the other party an answer that surprised everyone.
"Of course there are. Whether it's her, him, or him, they have all used my identity."
Longjing pointed to the platform where Zhen Xin, himself, and Cheng Shi were, and said with a smile, "To play the role of a god with a mortal body is a great sin of blasphemy, but to deceive the world with deception is the greatest devotion to the benefactor."
I acknowledge their piety, but I will not forgive their sins because of it. So, between reward and punishment, I chose a path for them, a path of redemption to explore another world.
If they gain something, it is a reward; but if they suffer misfortune, it is a punishment.
That's why you haven't seen those three, but you... not bad, your performance is very close to theirs."
"......"
Looking at the eerie smile that Yu Xi was giving him, for a moment, the naked masked fourth brother felt that the other party was definitely Yu Xi and could not possibly be Long Jing!
Real Longjing tea would never have such exquisite "acting skills," and even if it did, it would never have such a divine aura!
That's right, it's the aura!
Identity can be played, after all, one's mouth is on one's own face, and one can say whatever one wants, but one's aura can never be wrong. At this moment, an abstract and distorted aura of [deception] is rising behind Yu Xi, which is very much like the scene when a god descends. Although this aura appeared a little late, who can be sure that this is not Lord Yu Xi playing tricks on them?
He even fools himself, so how could he not fool those self-proclaimed clever liars?
If a con artist were to question His identity and then be proven wrong, would that con artist still be able to survive in the con artist community?
Even if they aren't ridiculed to death by their peers, they probably won't be watched by the gods anymore, right?
For this reason, even though he wasn't sure, the fourth brother didn't dare to verify the other party's identity.
He could only assume that the examiner in front of him, who seemed to be playing a fool, was indeed playing a fool. Even if the examiner was Longjing, the embarrassment of being "fooled by Longjing" was much more acceptable than the crime of "not acknowledging the fool's fault."
