The people around Wei Dafa had already told her about his identity and situation, but today she met a monk who was a complete stranger. Qiu Shui thought that Wei Dafa was testing her again. Although she was impatient, she didn't show it on her face, but her eyes flickered a little.
This is because she needs to keep an eye on Ruyuan's phone. What she needs to say depends on Ruyuan finding out what's going on and sending it over.
The same applies to Ruyuan's side. Ruyuan came up with the ideas to deal with Wei Dafa's test and then told Qiushui about them. Huishuo was a new thing that appeared suddenly and was not among the information Ruyuan had told Qiushui in advance, so Ruyuan naturally had to find out the truth.
At the very least, without knowing the truth, Ru Yuan couldn't let Hui Shuo use the "portable master," otherwise wouldn't that expose the deception? Ru Yuan already knew that Wei Dafa wanted Jiang Yongshun to raise money, and he had already passed on Jiang Yongshun's information to Qiu Shui.
As for Liang Yiyi, whom Jiang Yongshun brought along, Ruyuan could have easily found something to give to Qiushui by simply flipping through an entertainment magazine under the pretext of going to the toilet, even without asking her directly. However, Ruyuan was completely clueless about Huishuo and had no idea about the monk's background.
However, this unexpected situation had already been taken into consideration by Ruyu, so he calmly asked Huishuo, "Master Huishuo, you look unfamiliar. You shouldn't be from Huadu, right?"
After hearing Qiu Shui's question, Hui Shuo was about to look at Wang Yao to see if he should ask about feng shui or personal fortune, but unexpectedly, Ru Yuan suddenly asked a question, so he hurriedly turned to look at Ru Yuan with a smile.
"This humble monk is a wandering monk from Lingguang Temple on Lianye Mountain in Xiangyun City, Caidu. There is no need for you to ask me." Hui Shuo said to Ru Yuan, referring to the identity and resume he had prepared earlier. Qiu Shui, who was behind the screen, naturally heard what Hui Shuo said at the same time.
Since Ru Yuan had already mentally prepared himself, this "portable master" was a program that came with the phone and was not controlled by anyone. Therefore, Wei Dafa and the others did not feel that there was anything wrong with Ru Yuan probing Hui Shuo's identity in front of Qiu Shui.
On the contrary, if Qiu Shui were to reveal Hui Shuo's true identity later, everyone would be amazed by the "Master with a Bodyguard." This is a psychological trick that scammers love to use. It seems simple, but it is actually extremely deceptive.
Humans have a strong preconceived notion. When everyone treats the "portable master" as a mobile phone, and Qiu Shui as just a function on the phone, they will naturally overlook the doubts about whether Qiu Shui can hear them.
It's like how people often let their guard down when facing a computer screen, and before they know it, their privacy has been leaked. People often forget that although computers don't actively look or listen, installing a webcam on a computer is an incredibly simple thing.
In most cases, the webcam is installed by the computer owner themselves.
"Master, are you from Xiangyun? I wonder if you know Master Juewei of Qifeng Temple?" Upon hearing that Huishuo was from Xiangyun, Ruyuan's heart skipped a beat, but she put on an excited expression and asked.
"My humble Lingguang Temple is insignificant in Xiangyun. How could I possibly know any eminent monks at Qifeng Temple? I came here this time to solicit donations for the reconstruction of Lingguang Temple. Lingguang Temple is located in the valley of Lianye Mountain in Xiangyun, facing Lianye Temple on the mountain. It is a wonderful place to meditate on Buddhism..."
Hui Shuo's dedication was quite remarkable; before he had even finished two sentences, he began soliciting donations for his Lingguang Temple.
However, the two wealthy men present were so focused on the "master" that one was completely absorbed in the other, and the other was afraid that he might accidentally go to the Western Paradise, that they didn't dare to engage in any conversation with Hui Shuo.
"You said that as long as you donate 100, you can have your name written on the monument of merit?" Zhang Ying asked Hui Shuo with a face full of curiosity.
"That's natural. Whether it's 100 yuan or 1 yuan, it's all a donation from the benefactor's heart towards Buddha. There's no difference. It's just that building a merit monument takes time and effort, so we reluctantly set a limit of 100 yuan. This contradicts the Buddhist principle of equality for all sentient beings. Amitabha..."
Hui Shuo explained to Zhang Ying in a very serious manner.
“Old Yin, let’s donate 200 too? You donate 100 and I donate 100…” Zhang Ying turned to look at Zhen Huai, her eyes sparkling. She was a daughter, loving Zhen Huai, and felt that leaving her and Zhen Huai’s names on a monument, side by side, would be very meaningful.
Moreover, the key point is that it doesn't cost much, so they immediately became excited.
“That’s right, that’s right. This Master Huishuo is Xiao Yao’s friend. We can ask him about it later.” Zhen Huai didn’t think too much about it. He just didn’t want to spoil Zhang Ying’s mood. And since Huishuo was Wang Yao’s friend, he didn’t consider that he and Huishuo were different monks and Taoists. He smiled and agreed.
Hui Shuo had already heard Wang Yao call Zhen Huai "Uncle," and knew that this man was Wang Yao's elder. Since he was his parents' elder, he was probably his grandfather. Moreover, he heard that the man's words implied charity. This was the first time since Boss Yu choked to death that someone had responded so positively to the alms-begging.
Hui Shuo was filled with gratitude and respect. He then thought of giving Zhen Huai a Buddhist amulet, but in the blink of an eye, he realized that he was still holding the "Master's Amulet" in his hand. On a whim, he handed the "Master's Amulet" to Zhen Huai.
“Grandpa, take a look at this…” As he spoke, Hui Shuo reached for the Buddhist amulet.
“Uh…” Zhen Huai took the “Portable Master”. He had heard from Wang Yao that this thing was fake. He looked down and saw that the nun on it was smiling at him.
"May I ask if you are here to inquire about feng shui, or to have your fortune told and divine your destiny?" the nun asked him crisply. Ever since she learned of Hui Shuo's identity, Qiu Shui had been waiting impatiently, but unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, a different person appeared before her.
