Chapter 357 Killing Two Birds with One Stone
"Damn, why do I feel like Shopkeeper Zhou has been tricked?"
"Yeah, I've never heard of the Heart-Searching Talisman."
"It feels like they are acting."
"It must be acting. It was this Qin Guan who cooperated with the people of Wanbao Pavilion to act and tricked Zhou Heshuo."
The monks at the auction site all talked about this.
In the eyes of most people, the so-called Heart-Searching Talisman must be fake.
Zhou Heshuo was tricked by Xu Changshou and others. Qin Guan was originally a stooge of Wanbao Pavilion.
Listening to the discussion of the crowd, Xu Changshou didn't take it seriously and looked at Zhou Heshuo with a smile: "Shopkeeper Zhou, what else do you have to say?"
"Haha, ridiculous."
Zhou Heshuo sneered: "Bullshit Heart-Searching Talisman, go and fool the devil."
Xu Changshou smiled indifferently: "So, you don't believe that my Heart-Searching Talisman is real?"
"I don't believe it." Zhou Heshuo looked disdainful.
Xu Changshou's smile did not diminish: "Since you don't believe it, why don't you try this self-questioning talisman yourself?"
"Uh..."
Zhou Heshuo hesitated. He was really a little scared to try it himself.
"Why, you dare not, fellow Zhou?" Xu Changshou challenged.
Zhou Heshuo gritted his teeth and said, "Why not? Today I want to prove my innocence."
After saying this, Zhou Heshuo looked at the crowd and clasped his fists and said, "Please all the Taoists present here to bear witness for me. Next, everything I say is true. If there is any lie, I will die a miserable death."
"Shopkeeper Zhou, we believe you."
"Yes, Shopkeeper Zhou's character is trustworthy."
"Shopkeeper Zhou, speak boldly, we will bear witness for you."
Many people in the audience said this.
Speaking of it, Zhou Heshuo's character in Pingyangfang City is still good.
After all, he is a businessman. He is usually kind and smiling all day long.
He is also polite to the guests of Longfeng Pavilion.
Therefore, it left a good impression on everyone, and many people were on Zhou Heshuo's side.
The situation was even more unfavorable to Wanbao Pavilion.
In Box No. 2, Li Linhao and others frowned.
Chu Xiaoyu frowned and said, "Brother Lin, is Brother Xu's heart-searching talisman real or fake?"
Li Linhao was unsure and smiled bitterly, "I don't know either, it should be real."
Zhang Liren shook his head, "I don't think it's real. I feel that he and Qin Guan are in collusion."
Qin Muqing nodded, "I agree with what Brother Zhang said."
"Uh..."
Li Linhao spread his hands and said nothing.
Even his own people didn't believe Xu Changshou, and outsiders didn't believe him even more.
"Haha, Brother Zhou, let's get started."
Xu Changshou walked over, took out a heart-searching talisman, and stuck it on Zhou Heshuo's back.
At this moment, Ye Xinghe, Ye Shanhu, Wu Xin, and everyone at the auction venue looked at Zhou Heshuo at the same time.
Xu Changshou looked at Zhou Heshuo and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Zhou, are you ready?"
"Okay, ask whatever you want."
Zhou Heshuo nodded confidently.
Although he had put on the Heart-Searching Talisman now, he didn't feel anything at all.
Xu Changshou got straight to the point: "Fellow Daoist Zhou, I ask you, did you send Qin Guan to make trouble?"
Zhou Heshuo shook his head: "Yes."
Hearing his own answer, Zhou Heshuo was shocked. He clearly said "no", but when the words came to his lips, it turned into "yes".
"Oh my God, what's going on?"
"Shopkeeper Zhou admitted it?"
"Strange, does the Heart-Searching Talisman really work?"
"Impossible, it's incredible."
In an instant, the auction site was quiet, and then there was a burst of discussion.
Without giving him time to react, Xu Changshou continued to ask: "What's the matter with this broken sword?"
After hearing his words, Zhou Heshuo's eyes turned and he planned to shut up and not say anything. I won't answer, what can you do to me?
However, he opened his mouth uncontrollably: "This flying sword belongs to our Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion. After Qin Guan took the Fire Spirit Sword, he went to the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion and found a similar but defective Fire Spirit Sword. After breaking it..."
Halfway through his words, Zhou Heshuo tore off the heart-searching charm on his back, and then pointed at Xu Changshou angrily: "Magic, you are using magic, the facts are not like this at all."
"Oh my God, it was really ordered by Shopkeeper Zhou."
"Damn it, it's so damned, I didn't expect Zhou Heshuo to be so despicable, we were all deceived by him."
"Haha, colleagues are enemies. After Wanbao Pavilion acquired Danxia Pavilion, they are the only one in Pingyangfang City. Shopkeeper Zhou will definitely not want to see such a situation, so..."
"That's right, businessmen value profit..."
At this time, people's tone began to change, and public opinion pressure was given to Zhou Heshuo.
Zhou Heshuo hurriedly explained: "Everyone must believe me. I was just under the spell of Fellow Daoist Xu, so I was talking nonsense. This is not the case. Fellow Daoist Xu, tell me quickly, what spell did you use on me?"
Xu Changshou ignored him, but looked at the people at the auction venue and said with a smile: "Everyone, this is called the Heart-Searching Talisman. Once you put on the Heart-Searching Talisman, you can't lie. This talisman is a new spiritual talisman researched by the Dark Green Peak of my Green Immortal Sect. In the future, if you want to buy this spiritual talisman, you can buy it at the Wanbao Pavilion or directly from our Green Immortal Sect. I brought some today and will put them on the auction later. Fellow Daoists who are interested can bid for them."
As he spoke, Xu Changshou took out ten more Heart-Searching Talismans and handed them to Ye Xinghe.
The Heart-Searching Talisman is just a first-grade spiritual talisman, which is effective for both Qi Refining and Foundation Building cultivators.
After this, Xu Changshou plans to pass this kind of talisman to the disciples of Dark Green Peak. In this way, it will be beneficial to the disciples of Dark Green Peak, Wanbao Pavilion, and Xu Changshou himself.
Every time the disciples of Dark Green Peak have one more talisman, they will have one more way to make money.
This kind of talisman is directly supplied to Wanbao Pavilion, and Wanbao Pavilion will benefit from it.
And for Xu Changshou, every time he shows off another talisman, his position will be consolidated.
This matter kills two birds with one stone.
"Oh my god, the heart-searching talisman is real!"
"It's incredible that there are such magical talismans in the world."
"This heart-searching talisman is quite interesting. I'll take a picture later."
"It's all auctioned off. It seems that the heart-searching talisman is real."
"It turns out that it is really Shopkeeper Zhou who is making trouble."
"No wonder he helps people pay money. It turns out that he is digging a hole for Wanbao Pavilion."
"Shopkeeper Zhou is too despicable. Don't go to Longfeng Pavilion to buy things in the future."
Listening to people's discussions, Zhou Heshuo's face was uglier than eating a dead mouse.
He had dug a big hole for Wanbao Pavilion, thinking that he could ruin the auction of Wanbao Pavilion and even destroy the reputation of Wanbao Pavilion.
He never expected that not only his conspiracy was exposed, but also he advertised other people's talismans for free.
After this incident, I am afraid that everyone in the world knows about the Questioning Heart Talisman.
Moreover, when the Questioning Heart Talisman is mentioned, people will think of his troublemaking in Wanbao Pavilion.
At this point, he is powerless to save the situation.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, next, it's time to settle the accounts between us."
