847 A Brutal Slap in the Face
The Daoist priest’s hands were hanging loose. Because of the pain, his kind face was now twisted and ferocious. Beads of sweat rolled down from both sides of his forehead and spread over his eyelids. He was in so much pain that he could barely speak.
When he heard Lin yuelan’s words, he suddenly opened his eyes. Beads of sweat immediately dripped into his eyes, and he couldn’t help but squint his eyes in pain.
However, at this moment, his eyes were filled with anger and hatred. He stared at Lin yuelan for a moment, then turned his head a few times, looking at certain people with anger and resentment.
He gritted his teeth and said, ” what are you talking about?”
The corners of Lin yuelan’s mouth curled up into a faint smile, which was filled with sarcasm and mockery.
She said indifferently, ” it seems that you’re quite loyal. Oh, or rather, you’re a person who keeps your clients’ secrets!
As soon as Lin yuelan finished speaking, the people who were listening to her gasped in shock and disbelief.
This Daoist priest was hired by someone?
How was that possible?
In their impression, the Daoist priest had a Sage-like demeanor and a righteous look.
How could he possibly do something to harm others?
“Since that’s the case, I can only let you keep my Little White company!” Lin yuelan whistled as she spoke.
The Daoist priest was immediately confused and asked, ” Little White? ” Who was Little White?
As an outsider, the priest did not know who Little White was.
However, as the villagers of the Lin Family village, their faces turned pale when they heard little white. They were slightly afraid and frightened.
The priest looked around. He noticed their pale expressions. He was even more confused about who Little White was.
A moment later, he would find out.
He saw a big white Tiger that was half the height of an adult walking out of the Lin family Garden in an awe-inspiring manner. Although its steps were not fast, they were steady and powerful.
It slowly walked in front of Lin yuelan, then rubbed its head against her palm, trying to please her.
It was a very cute big white cat, but in everyone’s eyes, it was a fiendish existence.
Lin yuelan patted little White’s head and said slowly, ” little white, haven’t you been depressed that no one has been playing with you recently? Look, I’ve found you a companion. Are you happy?”
After that, everyone saw the big white Tiger nod its head and rub it against Lin yuelan’s palm. Then, it came to the Daoist priest and stared at him with its big round eyes for a moment. It then circled around him a few times and finally returned to Lin yuelan’s side. It rubbed its whole body against Lin yuelan’s body. No one knew if it was expressing its agreement or happiness.
However, the Daoist priest was so scared that his face turned pale, and his whole body was trembling.
He would never have thought that the cute ‘little white’ that Lin yuelan had mentioned would be a giant beast, a big tiger that bit and ate people.
Lin yuelan touched Little White’s head and said to the Daoist priest with a smile, ” Daoist priest, Little White likes you very much. It seems that you have to stay and keep Little White company for a few days. After my little white is done playing with you, I’ll let you go back. How about it? However, I don’t know when little white will get tired of playing with you!”
She spoke lightly, and her voice was innocent and harmless. However, those who heard it were terrified and terrified.
The Daoist priest suddenly shouted in fear, ” Wait, I’ll tell you everything!”
However, Lin yuelan ignored him and asked indifferently, ” what do you mean?”
The Daoist priest couldn’t care about anything else. He only knew that if he were really left behind to accompany this big white Tiger, he would be scared to death even if he wasn’t bitten to death.
The sight of a man-eating White Tiger that could bite and eat him at any time made him tremble in fear.
After all, if he died, how could he spend the money he was given?
Money could still be earned if it was gone, but if one’s life was gone, then there was really nothing left.
The reason why he didn’t rat them out before was he only got half of the money he was promised.
However, he could not care about that now.
The Daoist priest gritted his teeth and said fiercely, ” I didn’t come here. I was invited by someone to frame you as a demon!”
As soon as he said this, the villagers were surprised at first, and then they all gasped.
Lin yuelan didn’t seem to believe him and said, ” Oh, but as far as I know, priests and monks won’t do things to harm others. You’re a Daoist priest. Why would you frame me?”
At this moment, Lin yuelan deliberately pushed all the blame onto this Daoist priest in order to force him to tell the truth.
How could this Daoist priest not understand Lin yuelan’s meaning?
He immediately defended himself, ” no, I’m not a Daoist priest at all! I’m just a street performer, a scammer!”
“Ah, he’s actually a fake Daoist priest?”
“Didn’t you hear him clearly? He is a charlatan, and someone hired him to pretend to be a Daoist priest to frame Lan ‘Er!”
“Detestable! Who hired such a person to deceive everyone?”
“Right, we must find him!”
“Hey, you fake priest, tell us quickly, who invited you here to deceive people? If you don’t, everyone will roast you over the fire!”
It had always been the style of these ignorant villagers to change sides or to be fence-sitters.
Lin yuelan didn’t say anything, but she still had a faint smile on her face. It was unknown whether she was mocking him or not.
The Daoist priest looked at the aggressive crowd and finally gave a few names.
