Old Fogey Goes Down The Mountain

Chapter 101: God fell

Views:

"Yes! Of course! Yes! Find! Too! Cang! Zong!"

In the silent broadcasting room, the old leaders who were sitting in front of the screen didn't make a sound for a long time, and every inch of their dark bags under their eyes was filled with the marks of their insomnia these days. After a long while, an old leader who took the lead bit the cigarette butt and took a deep breath, and then raised his hand to stroke his almost bald forehead in the vicissitudes of life: "Xiao Gu..."

Mr. Gu sat at their feet, sobbing long.

Taicang Sect Headquarters—

After the impassioned advertisement was switched to the next shampoo broadcast, the reverberations of the protagonists' eloquent lines still lingered for a long time and lingered.

Chairman Wei Xi was sitting on the sofa staring at the screen, his heart was boiling like never before, it was not easy, Taicang Zong finally took this historic big step.

No one spoke in the room. After Wei Xi was excited, he remembered that Wei Tianyi seemed to have been talking to him, but he didn't listen carefully at the time. He turned to look at the other party: "Tianyi, what did you just say?"

Wei Tianyi: "…"

Wei Tianyi didn't look at him, turned around blankly, and stepped into the cold wind outside the door without even wearing a coat.

What the hell is going on in this world? He felt as if he had had an unpredictable nightmare, and now he desperately needed some cool air to wake him up.

Wei Xi: "?"

How did he behave like this

Wei Xi didn't want to understand, so he simply looked at Mrs. Wang. Although this believer is old, he has a lot of knowledge. He was also up and down in the business world when he was young, and he has a lot of business knowledge in the industry. Weixi's idea for Zongmen's advertising came from her at the beginning, and she should also have a splendid stroke in the military merit chapter.

The old lady Wang of the believers was silent for a while in his eyes, and then she raised her hand to search twice before she found the armrest of the sofa, she stood up tremblingly and supported herself: "...I, I'll still go and put the incense sticks on Tianzun. All right."

The two left in tandem, and neither the disciple nor the followers seemed to be happy with the first advertisement of their sect. Wei Xi couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, and wanted to ask his apprentice what was going on.

The second apprentice sat next to him with his face up, and when he saw him looking at him, he didn't seem to want to speak, his eyes were still a little speechless.

Fortunately, the eldest apprentice ran over with tears in his hands at this time: "Master! Master! Listen! Listen!"

On the other end of the phone, the ghosts and wolves wailed, the ghost employees of Taicangzong were in a mess, and Uncle Shen was even more sobbing: "Headmaster!!!! We're on TV, woohoohoo!!!"

Unity Yi also couldn't stop the tears: "Master, what do you think about my advertising slogan? In order to write it, I made a special trip with Fang Xiaojie to go through the virus marketing planning case for a week, and it was so simple and direct that I wrote it down to the hearts of the people. The script. From now on, our Taicang Sect will definitely develop better and better!"

This is a normal reaction!

Wei Xi was finally relieved, it seemed that the decision to advertise was really correct. The popularity of his sect must be soaring to the sky from now on, and the world knows it. In this way, the incense is flourishing, and the future of countless believers seems not too far away.

************

As far as his predictions... not wrong. After all, in the major forums and social networks at this time, countless question marks have indeed occupied the real-time dynamic area—

[? ? ? ? ?]

[? ? ? ? ?]

[? ? May I ask if there are any viewers who were watching XX channel together just now, can you answer that the advertisement that the landlord saw just now is not the hallucination of the landlord?]

From this question, the discussion sounded like a detonator that ignited a lead, and it exploded out of control.

The most important thing is that the audience was dumbfounded.

Do you think, when was the advertisement of Taicangzong broadcast? Gold file. What is the show on the prime time? "Believe in Science"! Who is the audience for "Believe in Science"? Everyone's Tucao program is a Tucao program, but this kind of "tucao" is just a joke at best. Who is not a fan of science while complaining while watching TV? As a result, at the end of the show, this group of fans jokingly scolded the ragged show and deceived people's feelings, and when the truth of the show was revealed without fantasy elements, when they once again strengthened their materialistic worldview, the front suddenly turned their heads and turned towards them. A lot of feudal superstitions came.

How can this helpless audience digest it

Listen to what that advert says - what to do if you're afraid of ghosts? What should I do if I'm afraid of demons? What to do if the feng shui at home is not good

No, let's not talk about what your TV station is promoting. From the content of this advertisement, it seems that a Taoist temple is promoting itself, but why even Taoist temples have started to be promoted on TV these days! ! ! What the hell is going on in your business? ! !

What's even more weird is the following content, what is the Taicangzong Haunted House Detective Institute, what kind of strange business is this? !

Netizens complained that they were very psychedelic here, and some people began to speculate that this was a spoof show made by TV stations. Who would have guessed that there are so many people and powerful netizens that after searching, they found that these industries they thought were fictional actually existed. Not to mention the Taicangzong Haunted House, it has long been a popular check-in place among the haunted house enthusiasts circle and local young people in Beijing, even the detective agency whose name most people have never heard of before. , There are many customers who have patronized on the Internet who have left traceable evaluations.

The remaining brokerage companies, such as health clubs, can also search for reasonable and legal registration certificates on the industrial and commercial website. It seems that the business is in good condition, and they are very complying with the business order.

The development of things here is enough to make people confused, but the most confusing thing is undoubtedly the magic stroke at the end of the advertisement.

The villain thanked the Taoists for introducing themselves to their jobs and turned into a winner of ghosts. What is this trying to express

Some netizens with two confused eyes even commented on 23333 and laughed: "Are you advocating the harmonious coexistence of humans and ghosts to work together for a common cause? Tears, this is simply an inspirational recruitment story that promotes world peace. This is a public service advertisement. "

Of course, after this comment caused a lot of laughter, no one would take it seriously. The initial surging complaints gradually subsided, and everyone's attention began to shift to the meaning of this nonsense advertisement.

What? Are you saying this is really just a publicity advertisement? how is this possible! Everyone was joking at first, but who doesn’t know how strict the standards for censorship of feudal superstitions are in these days, let’s not talk about it, what are you trying to do as a Taoist to escape the censorship and go to TV? Those who are not anti-human or anti-national, just to promote their ability to catch ghosts and catch them? Throughout the five thousand years of history, who has seen such a crazy religion

Netizens have a strong ability to logically self-consistently. After the popularity of this advertisement has blossomed everywhere and numerous reports have been made but no official response has been received, they finally figured out the cause and effect with their powerful brain-enhancing ability.

Regardless of the country, Taicang Zong has a backstage.

Since the Taicang Sect has a backstage, the state's move is by no means unreasonable, and it is estimated that it has a profound meaning.

Many angry bloggers began to speculate rationally on the Internet: "Could this Taicang Sect be sent by propaganda?"

When you think about it, it really makes sense—in recent years, the country has not been peaceful, and I don’t know what happened. Maybe it’s a side effect of the information explosion, and news related to superstition has suddenly appeared in an endless stream in various places. There are often many posts on the Internet that say that they have encountered ghosts or goblins. Although these posts were quickly deleted by the supervision department, as long as they are exposed, they will inevitably lead to a lot of discussion. A lot of power.

No, the water level of the Wushan Reservoir in the south skyrocketed not long ago, and many locals excitedly went online and rumored that they had encountered the Changyou mentioned in the "Shan Hai Jing", and affirmed that the surge in the water level of their own reservoir must be related to this Changyou. , after all, it was said in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" that Changyou's ability is to cause floods, and it just happened to be right.

You say that this kind of person is speechless, but the myth and legend of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" actually believe that if the natural disasters in various places are explained according to that book, the water level of Wushan Reservoir is soaring because of Changyou. Was the previous drought the result of fat leftovers

It's just insane!

There is also the last Dragon Shadow incident on the Yellow River, and the subsequent heavy rains and floods in various coastal areas in the lower reaches. Although "Believe in Science" and various news media have actively refuted the rumors, many people still believe that they are willing to The "truth" believed.

And there are more and more cults that come out to act as demons, all of them are doing bad things under the banner of the righteous way in the world, just like the seminary sect that was arrested in Xinnan last time, I heard that they were doing dirty things secretly to destroy the relationship between husband and wife. In this way, there are still many old men and women in Xinnan who believe in them and practice qigong hard.

It is because of these people that the society that has been developing steadily will be turbulent from time to time, causing people from all walks of life to panic.

Some popular science bloggers are extremely speechless about the current status quo, but unfortunately their abilities are limited. You don't see a column as big as "Believe in Science", and they can't make everyone believe in science. Compared with them, aren't they even smaller

Thinking of this, everyone immediately came to their senses, it turned out to be the case, Taicang Sect was originally a friendly army, no wonder it acted so strangely!

TV commercials, official channels, can be searched in every corner of the country, what a big platform? Instead of making people from all walks of life who are not well informed and educated enough to be easily deceived to believe in cults, it is better to introduce a serious and legitimate belief to them!

*************

This argument was further supported by another argument that was subsequently discovered.

A well-known animal science blogger quickly put the newly revised animal protection list on the Internet, and said happily: "Let's see what's on it."

Netizens didn't know it at first, so they all reposted and laughed at a glance—

"What the hell is the bladder laughing and exploding hahahahaha!!!!"

"Specially protected animal Qinglong hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!"

"No problem! Celebrate Qinglong's rectification of his name! Three days after forwarding this comment, we will draw a 666 red envelope from a descendant of the dragon."

"No problem, what's wrong with Qinglong? Why is it a super protected animal in the first place, one level higher than my giant panda, panda fans are very dissatisfied with [dog head]!"

"Fuck! You pandas are really shameless, how can you have the confidence to compete with our Qinglong in the status of the status wheel! As soon as our Qinglong arrives, your position as a national treasure is estimated to be unstable!"

"That's right, where the pheasants dare to cluck here, hurry up and find a chicken coop to lock them up. Our Qinglong has been in the C position for thousands of years, why can't we beat your panda!"

"23333 didn't expect that the first super protected animal since the founding of the country would be elected by Qinglong. To tell the truth, the degree of cherishment really deserves its name hahahahaha!"

"Crooked nuts: '???You actually have dragons???'"

"Country: I'm very happy now!"

Popular science bloggers couldn't help laughing themselves: "Take the road of cults, let cults have nowhere to go, and treat feudal superstitions in such a way! Taicang Sect is very ojbk!"

************

Unity was a little flustered at first. After the advertisement was broadcast, in addition to fans who were shocked to the point of being speechless, a wave of unfamiliar accounts scolded them for promoting feudal superstition, and they kept saying that they would follow up with them. Whatever bureau reported them, the social response was completely different from what he expected.

He didn't dare to tell his master about it, so he could only secretly discuss it with his younger brother, who just stared at him with a mentally retarded look.

Unity was very hurt. After searching the Internet for evaluation, I finally realized that something seemed to go wrong. The contemporary society is no longer the era when the illiterate people prayed to God and worshipped Buddha. The core values of socialism are shining all over the world. Both Taoism and Taoism are scorned by many young people, and I, a small sect born out of nowhere, simply cannot convince the crowd.

He was feeling sad, but the limelight suddenly turned, and those accounts who had scolded their sect before came back with a carbine, and all the content left this time became a friendly apology—

"Hahaha, I'm sorry, I was too impulsive before and didn't recognize that this was a friendly army. I took back my 40-meter-long broadsword and hit myself in the head."

"Give spaghetti to the friendly army, the friendly army is wronged, the friendly army works hard, and wins the believers all over the world."

Unity: "???"

What does this mean

There is also a popular science blogger with many fans who has left a deep impression on him before, and it really caused quite a bloody storm just now.

The blogger deleted the comment he denounced before, and the one that was topped has been replaced with another one—"Believe in science, and oppose unnecessary prayers to gods and Buddhas. Allies have a long way to go, and they must continue to work hard."

Unity is very confused, plus he was scolded before, he couldn't help replying to him: "What are you talking about, of course our sect worships the gods, don't you see Zhiding? The worship is the Taoist Heavenly Venerate! "

The blogger who started to be very hostile at this time reposted it in a vague and intimate way: "I understand, I understand, I believe in science, I believe in Tao Tianzun, I don't have much to say, I am the first to believe it!"

That post is forwarded to the next one hahaha, to tell the truth, anyone who has a little understanding of religion, who does not know that in the past and present, has never lived a god like the Taoist Heavenly Venerate? Taicang Zong's friend's drama is too deep, and he actually cooperates with them to tear up.

So after a farce, many netizens started to frantically swipe the topic of #trust science, trust daotianzun# on the homepage, plus the Taicangzong magic advertisement that was madly reposted, the popularity suddenly overwhelmed countless stars, and it became a spectacle.

Unity: "???"

After Weixi was happy, he finally remembered to ask his apprentices how the market feedback was.

Unity Yi looked at the increasing numbers of self-proclaimed followers of Taicang Sect on his mobile phone in confusion, as well as the number of fans whose growth rate was almost unscientific. After a long silence, he could only summarize this as: "It seems to be very enthusiastic, I don't know why, everyone is so excited. Responding positively.”

Wei Xi had no idea about this, and nodded with satisfaction: "It seems that our business direction is not wrong, you say it is."

Shuozong: "..."

If you're talking about taking the cult's path and leaving the cult with nowhere to go, that's true.

****************

The only two apprentices of the Taicang sect who were normal people were speechless after seeing the succession and reunification of the advertising scandal. There were not only the idiot master and apprentice in the sect, but also the netizens who were open-minded on the Internet.

After this battle, Wei Xi's worldview was completely fixed. Sure enough, the way of shining on the lintel outside the mountain was much more complicated than what Wei Dedao had instructed before. Just the way.

So when he was thinking about the next step for his family, Mr. Gu came to the door again.

Mr. Gu looked much older than the last time we met, and as soon as he entered the door, he showed a crying and smiling expression: "Master Wei, how is the effect of the Zongmen advertisement after it is released?"

Of course, that is very good. Not to mention other things these days, there are quite a few lonely ghosts from the sect who have applied for jobs. They all came after seeing the job advertisements of the Taicang sect on various occasions. Ordinary TV viewers don't know, but it's so hard to recognize that the group of villains who are active on the silver screen are all their own kind? Taicangzong can be advertised. This is a resource that can only be found in regular big companies. Lonely ghosts want to become ghost winners like the villains in the advertisements. Therefore, when applying for jobs, regardless of their ability or attitude. All very humble and sincere.

Taking advantage of this wave of popularity, Uncle Shen has recruited a lot of good seedlings in front of him, and he has to call him every day to congratulate him. And because it has been on TV, it still plays a very important role with lines. In the end, the appearance of the suit and leather shoes is quite handsome, and it unexpectedly gained a little reputation in the ghost world, which caused the female ghost employees in the company to hate it. His attitude has become special, and the wild ghosts who come to apply for a job even treat him like a star.

Uncle Shen is very proud of being sought after. For the burden of his idol in the company, he has taken on the role of a business elite, and he works even harder. He works hard every day without overtime, which drives the enthusiasm of the entire company.

This is definitely a very good result for the Taicang Sect.

Mr. Gu also saw the satisfaction in his eyes, and smiled bitterly: "In order for this advertisement to pass the review, I and the leaders in the department have been burdened with a lot of pressure. If Master Wei can feel satisfied, it would be better. ."

What he said was true and not adulterated at all. The advertisements of this theme were originally not allowed to be broadcast on TV in their review, and they were not even allowed to be broadcast on the Internet. Fortunately, the voice on the Internet was re-planned for various reasons in the later period, and the impact was not as serious as they thought at the beginning, and it also achieved good results that were not expected before, but at the beginning, the department went from top to bottom. But they are all tough.

To be honest, several big leaders wanted to oppose it at first, but later, out of various considerations, they finally gave up the idea. Apart from the fact that the old leader made a promise, the most important thing is to take a fancy to the extraordinary ability of Taicang Sect.

After seeing Qinglong, they learned from the Taoist priests of the local Taoist Association that Xuanwu had already appeared.

Although the Taoist priests were very secretive about the details of the arrest of the Xinnan cult last time, the news revealed to them from top to bottom all showed the truth - the people who caught Xuanwu at that time were also people from the Taicang sect.

As the person in charge of "Believe in Science", Mr. Gu has not witnessed the arrest of Xuanwu, but he has seen Qinglong's arrest with his own eyes!

Wei Xi's brutal performance of gnawing on the scales while riding on the Qinglong made him sweat in cold sweat since midnight. Although it was a mineral water bottle who really made a contribution in the end, there is no need to doubt how strong Wei Xi is in combat, right

Nowadays, the situation in various parts of the country is frequent. Not to mention the weak strength of the Taoist priests in Taoism Association His own level, that is Wanwan can not reach the standard. There are a lot of bad things in the department now. He wants to cooperate with Weixi for a long time, so he can only work harder to get benefits for the other party.

"It's like this." Mr. Gu said hesitantly, "Master Wei also knows that the drought in Wuhua is serious, and the Taoist leaders of the Taoist Association urgently go to Wuhua to ask for rain."

Wuhua is the place where Feiyi was caught before. It is said that there has been no rain for more than three months. Wuhua is a big agricultural province, and many people still rely on the sky for food. The consequences of that fertile inheritance are very serious. Weixi has seen the photos sent to him by the local Taoist priests. The land is cracked, and the rivers and lakes are almost Nearly dry, the vegetables in the fields are dead and dry. The government is desperately diverting water, but it cannot guarantee their daily living supply. So even though it is winter now, the distress on the faces of the residents is clearly visible. If the drought continues, there will be no need to think about the spring ploughing in the countryside next year, and urban life will inevitably enter a more severe predicament.

The Taoist priests did not hope to ask for rain. They originally wanted to invite Weixi to go with him, but Weixi did not know how to ask for it, so he refused this group activity.

Wei Xi thought it was a little strange at the time, isn't Qinglong Shanshui? Wouldn't it be better to go to the zoo and bring Qinglong with you

The second apprentice said: "Qinglong is good for water, and there must also be water to be good. In ancient times, the dragon tribe did have the job of spreading clouds and rain for a period of time, but it was only responsible for swallowing clouds and mist, and rain distribution is not so simple. The way of heaven checks and balances all things, and will not give any divine beast the ability to rain on its own. Rainfall is the matter of the two constellations Fengbo Sailor."

Wei Xi seemed to understand, but after listening to the second apprentice's words, he also knew that the green dragon was probably useless: "Why don't they invite the pair of stars?"

Hearing the words, the second apprentice just laughed inexplicably, and looked at the sky with complex sarcasm and pity in his eyes.

Heaven can collapse, everything in the world is so fickle, even if it was often sacrificed by the whole country since the Qin and Han dynasties, should it fall or not? Uncle Feng, Sailor, how many believers can remember their names today

Wei Xi didn't quite understand what the apprentice's silence before, but Mr. Gu could still understand what he said. He nodded and said, "I know, Mr. Gu is here for this? Unfortunately, I'm not good at this, and I don't plan to participate in their rain. legal affairs.”

Mr. Gu hurriedly shook his head and took out his mobile phone: "Master Wei, you have misunderstood. I came to you for another matter, which has nothing to do with begging for rain."

****************

What Mr. Gu handed Wei Xi to watch was a chaotic video, like a law enforcement scene. In the background, many people were pressed to the ground by the police. This group of people had clearly been subdued, but there was no fear on their faces, and they cursed and said things like "I want you to come here and meddle with mice!"

Mr. Gu sighed: "This is the law enforcement record provided to us by the police of Lehe City. The people who were arrested are a group of cult members who illegally worshiped. Mainly considering that Master Wei has experience in eradicating the monks and students, this time I only Will take the liberty to come to help.”

Unity Yi on the side was surprised: "Why is there another cult?"

Mr. Gu shook his head: "I don't know what's going on. In recent years, cult organizations all over the country have become more and more rampant, and I don't know what kind of connection there is behind it. In short, there are many exchanges between cults and cults. Master Wei estimates that I never heard that the teacher of the Seminary Sect advocated that Pang was doing pyramid schemes in Lehe before he joined the Seminary Sect. We later cooperated with the police to interrogate him and determined that many of his methods were learned during Lehe. Compared with his method of defrauding and spreading qigong in Xinnan, Lehe's cult method is far more terrifying. The reason why he was arrested by the police this time is because they want to sacrifice a pair of virgins to their evil gods. ."

Weixi: "Living sacrifice?"

Mr. Gu: "Yes, fortunately, the pair of children were rescued by the local police before they were flooded into the river."

Wei Xi nodded, showing no special performance on topics involving human life, and pondered to himself.

Mr. Gu looked at his face nervously, Weixi's strength is so high, you can usually see that he is a little arrogant, and even Qinglong doesn't take it seriously. The last time he cooperated to catch a dragon, he made such a difficult request. This time there was no advertisement to be posted, and he did not know whether he would agree to his request.

After a long while, Wei Xi finally said solemnly: "Mr. Gu, it stands to reason that we have worked together once, I shouldn't have said that..."

When Mr. Gu heard this, he felt a little despair in his heart. Did he really want to refuse

I just heard Wei Xi slowly ask: "-You didn't give money last time, but after all, there was an advertisement, so I didn't mention it to you. Will you give money this time? Or do you think about directly applying for a card for long-term cooperation? "

Mr. Gu: "..."

*********

Mr. Gu has helped a lot before, and he is generous in giving money. He agreed to let his department come forward to apply for the gold card of Taicang Sect. Now Weixi finally understands why the books that the big apprentice gave him always say that it is advisable to follow the government agencies. Cooperation, the cooperation between agencies and units is really much more profitable than private companies and individuals, and the amount of recharge immediately reached a new high in the history of Zongmen's card opening.

Wei Xi faintly felt that he could find more opportunities to cooperate with the country in the future.

As for the cult, the last seminar left a deep impression on him. If all the cult members outside the mountain were like Zhang Pang and the seminary, it wouldn't take much effort for him to attack seventeen or eight in a week.

Wei Xi didn't take it seriously, but the second apprentice suddenly grabbed him before going out.

Wei Xi asked, "What's wrong?"

The second apprentice looked up at the sky. After the winter in the capital, the air has not been very good, but the sky has been surprisingly clean in the past two days. At this time, the sky was already dark, the bright moon was hanging high, and the scattered stars were scattered in the sky.

Wei Xi vaguely remembered seeing the reason on the Internet. Netizens and experts said that it was because the environment was too harsh, which made the stars in the city so dim and rare. At the same time, he did not forget to post some photos taken in the countryside and abroad. The starry sky photos of , it does look much more prosperous than what you can see in the capital.

But every time Weixi sees those photos, he feels a little out of line. He feels very different from those netizens who shouted "too beautiful" and "too beautiful" in the comments. The chaotic memory always reminds him vaguely that the sky It shouldn't be like this.

Even in those well-received photos, the light of the stars is simply not bright enough for him.

But he didn't even know where his perception came from.

The second apprentice stared at the sky for too long, and Wei Xi unconsciously raised his head and followed him, but couldn't see anything special.

At this moment, the second apprentice lowered his head thoughtfully. For a moment, Wei Xi felt that the emotion flashing in his eyes was even terrifying, and the hairs on the back of his neck couldn't help but stand up instinctively.

A large warm hand covered the back of his neck and touched it gently. The second apprentice also seemed to have noticed his nervousness and returned to his usual calm and calm expression. The stars are very bright at night."

He opened the door for Vesilla, then deliberately did not sit in together, but closed the door and went around from the rear to the other end.

After making sure Weixi couldn't see himself, he took out his vibrating mobile phone—

"Xia Shouren, did you see it too?"

Xia Shouren on the other end of the phone hummed, and his voice was rarely serious: "Feng Bo Yu Shi's star is bright."

Shuozong said coldly, "I'm about to fall into the devil."

Xia Shouren: "I thought it was the worst situation now, but I didn't expect that there were still gods falling. Their location seems to be near Lehe City, so I'll bring people over there. As for the gods... What are your plans?"

Shuozong glanced at the car, Weixi didn't see him getting in the car, he had already opened the car window and stuck his head out to look for: "Queer?"

Shuozong stood in the cold wind, with one hand in his pocket, raised his mouth and smiled at him, but the condensed voice was completely different from the gentle curvature of the corner of his mouth—

"What else can you plan, bring my God-killing whip and come to me."
