Chapter 1690 Is He a Monk?
In this somewhat blurry photo, there is an elderly man standing in his sixties.
Of course, the people in the photos from that era all looked older than they actually were. Maybe Kim Ji-hyun wasn’t actually that old when he took this photo, but when was this photo taken? Today It is no longer possible to test, and we can only speculate that he must have been over fifty years old when he took this photo.
Kim Jixian stands in front of a white background. Next to him, there is a table. On the table, there are several thick books. I don’t know if this is his own room or just a photography set. .
The old man in the photo is short and very thin. In the photo, he is wearing a black robe. The style is very much like the black robe of Western missionaries of that era. He wears a traditional Korean black hat on his head. The position of his forehead is It is tightly hooped, the top of the head is cylindrical, and the brim is very wide.
Comparing the proportions of Kim Ji-hyun's body in the photo with the height of the table next to him, we can estimate that his height should not be more than 1.6 meters. With his figure, wearing this large black robe, it is obviously impossible to hold up the entire body. The robe has a cylindrical shape, which makes it even smaller, and the upper part of the black hat is much higher than what ordinary people wear.
Looking at it like this, Jin Jixian looked a little out of place. Not only was he dressed in something that was neither earthy nor foreign, and looked very confused, the huge black hat also looked like someone who was not tall enough and wore a hat to fit in. However, this did not achieve the expected effect, but made him shorter.
Just from the photos, Kim Ji-hyun's outfit is ridiculous. Even if the photos are not clear, you can see that he is not good-looking, with a big face, squinting eyes, and provocative ears. It can be said that this person looks a little bit different just from his appearance. ugly.
However, facing this ridiculous photo, Tang Feng did not feel anything funny.
Kim Jixian stood there with his hands folded in front of him. His posture was very natural, revealing a kind of confidence. This kind of confidence was rarely possessed by people in the photos of that era, and in his eyes, He has a look that ordinary people don't have. With this look, even if he is placed in a group of people, he can be distinguished at a glance.
In his narrowed eyes, Tang Feng could see that the man named Jin Jixian had a bit of perseverance, alertness, and even a bit of cunning in his eyes.
In troubled times, it is not easy to settle down, but when Kim Jixian already had a strong family fortune, he did not hesitate to give up, but ran away alone and founded a sect, which can be said to be quite powerful.
When Zixuan saw Tang Feng looking at the phone, she came over and glanced at the screen. After seeing the photo, she couldn't help but frown slightly and said, "Is this the sect leader? It seems, It’s not simple.”
Chen Jianfei said with a smile: "It's really not simple. Kim Jixian has a very powerful ability to incite. The scene where he gave his speech was packed with people, who couldn't help but cheer him. If it were now, he should be a very powerful marketing master."
Ji Ning's face showed a bit of doubt as he said: "Can you confuse so many people just by relying on your sharp tongue and inspiring people's hearts? Even in the Goryeo Kingdom at that time, it was easy for the people to believe this. It’s not so easy to give up on something, right?”
Chen Jianfei nodded again and said to Ji Ning: "Yes, Jin Jixian not only has good eloquence, but also claims to have divine power bestowed by the Great Holy Lord, and often performs miracles during his speeches. The most common ones are In full view of the public, he treats people, such as some paralyzed patients, who will stand up and move freely if he touches them with his hands. Some blind or deaf-mute people will also be able to hear and see after he touches them."
Zixuan curled her lips slightly and said: "Isn't this method too old-fashioned? Many people have done this before. It is nothing more than finding some people to cooperate with the performance, pretending that the patient has been cured by him, and then putting on a show He looked ecstatic, but given the lack of information at that time, it doesn’t seem surprising that someone would be fooled.”
Chen Jianfei said "Yeah" and said: "Although this method is not new, it is quite effective. It is the best method at any time. It is indeed quite able to scare some people - besides, We have no actual evidence to prove that he does not have these abilities."
When Chen Jianfei said this, he looked at Tang Feng and continued: "Mr. Tang, I have always believed that there are still monks in this world. Not only after meeting you, but also before, Mr. Shen and I were like this." It is generally believed that although we have tried every means to search before and spent a lot of time and experience, but in the end there was no result, we have never doubted this."
Tang Feng nodded lightly and said: "In today's world, resources are scarce, and it is indeed difficult for practitioners to survive."
As he spoke, he glanced at Zixuan and said: "Before I saw Zixuan, I also thought that monks had become extinct, but her appearance made me believe that there are only a few remaining monks in this world. , maybe not a few.”
Zixuan also looked at Tang Feng, she frowned and said: "You mean, that Jin Jixian is also a monk?"
Tang Feng said calmly: "At least, there is no evidence to prove that he is not."
As he spoke, he handed the phone to Zixuan.
Zixuan took it, and on the page that opened, it was an introduction to Jin Jixian's life.
She glanced at it quickly and finished reading. She couldn't help but look a little confused and said: "No, if he is a monk, when did he start practicing? It's impossible for his parents to be monks and take him with him since he was a child. Are you a practitioner?"
Ji Ning and Shangguan knew what Zixuan was looking at, so they both took out their mobile phones and searched. When Zixuan looked at it, they also hurriedly looked at it, but of course they looked faster than Zi Xuan. Xuan was much slower. When Zixuan spoke, they had not finished reading.
Chen Jianfei took up Zixuan's topic and said: "We have also considered this. After a series of analyzes of Kim Ji-hyun's life trajectory, we feel that if he really obtained some kind of mysterious power, the biggest Maybe it happened during the years when he went to study in the West."
