Chapter 2617: Chapter 2618: Precise Plan
Meanwhile, pressure fell upon Wu Gui Ping.
Everyone was waiting for him to showcase real Kung Fu.
Faced with many eyes, Wu Gui Ping forcibly suppressed his nervousness and pretended to be calm, saying:
âI must apologize, I got injured a few days ago and havenât recovered yet.â
Wu Gui Ping rolled up his sleeve, revealing a bandage underneath, proving his claim wasnât false.
âThatâs really a pity,â a middle-aged female tourist remarked regretfully, without saying anything more.
The other tourists reacted similarly, as though this was expected.
âYou can go elsewhere to look, everyone here at Shangqing Palace knows Kung Fu. Just find a few people to demonstrate, and youâll not leave disappointed,â Wu Gui Ping said.
âAlright, I wonât disturb you any further then, Daoist Master.â
Chen Rongrong silently breathed a sigh of relief.
Wu Gui Ping appeared dull, but wasnât foolish, going through the charade rather smoothly and avoiding danger.
Now it remained to find other Daoist priests to demonstrate Daoist martial arts and wait for them to expose themselves, ruining the reputation.
Based on what happened earlier, had Wu Gui Ping said right from the start, âI donât know Kung Fu, those people down the mountain were lying,â
it could still tarnish the reputation, but the effect would not be as great.
Thatâs why, from the outset, Zhou Jin designed this scenario.
First, he hired some people to spread rumors at the foot of the mountain, claiming the Daoists at Shangqing Palace knew Kung Fu, stirring up anticipation.
Then, driven by curiosity, they all would come to Shangqing Palace.
Next, Chen Rongrong interviewed Wu Gui Ping to confirm that the Daoists at Shangqing Palace knew Kung Fu.
Then they would interview others; if they couldnât demonstrate, Shangqing Palace would be suspected of false advertising.
The centuries-old reputation would be ruined overnight!
In the future, Longhu Mountain would belong to Zhengyi Temple.
Wu Gui Ping walked away, and Chen Rongrong shifted the camera.
Next, it was time to bring the people from the livestream and her troll army to find other Daoist priests!
The show was about to commence!
âEveryone, donât worry, letâs go find other Daoist priests and have them demonstrate real Kung Fu.â
âWhoa, Rongrong, thereâs a female Daoist behind you whoâs especially beautiful, look back quickly.â
Seeing the comment from the livestream, Chen Rongrong turned around and saw Zhuang Xiaoyun and Li Yongnian.
Although the male Daoists here werenât particularly handsome, Zhuang Xiaoyun had exceptional looks.
Dressed in a Daoist robe, her refreshing and subtle charm was brought out completely.
âYou donât have to find others, just go see those two Daoists; you not only get to see Daoist martial arts but also some beauties.â
âYou all are too much, isnât looking at me enough?â Chen Rongrong coyly replied.
âEven though youâve reached C rank, we occasionally need a change of taste.â
âAlright then, Iâll meet your requests.â
Chen Rongrong said with satisfaction, âLetâs go interview those two Daoists and see what theyâre up to.â
With that, Chen Rongrong held up her phone, followed by her troll army and some clueless onlookers.
They marched grandly towards Li Yongnian and Zhuang Xiaoyun.
âDaoist Master!â
Upon hearing Chen Rongrongâs call, the two stopped and looked at her curiously.
At the same time, they had a wary expression because she was holding a phone.
By the look of things, she was obviously someone doing a livestream.
âWhatâs the matter?â
âBefore this, we heard people say that the Daoists at Shangqing Palace are skilled in Kung Fu, so weâd like you to demonstrate. Is that possible?â Chen Rongrong asked politely.
Li Yongnian smiled and earnestly replied:
âThe so-called Kung Fu isnât as miraculous as everyone imagines; we should believe in science.â
âBelieve in science?â
The earlier middle-aged female tourist spoke up:
âWhen we came up the mountain, people claimed you at Shangqing Palace had skills like wall-climbing, and now youâre saying believe in science. Isnât this false advertising, deceiving us?â
âFalse advertising?â
Li Yongnian was momentarily startled, then exchanged a glance with Zhuang Xiaoyun.
âDid we send people to promote at the foot of the mountain?â
âIt seems not, havenât heard anyone mention this.â
Li Yongnian nodded and then turned to the surrounding tourists.
âI donât know what youâre talking about, but we havenât done such promotions.â
His words stirred up a thousand waves.
Not only the troll army but also some clueless onlookers couldnât remain calm.
Because indeed, they had believed the promotions and thought Shangqing Palace should be better than Zhengyi Temple, thus changing their plans to come here.
Unexpectedly, what awaited them was just talk about believing in science!
âYou at Shangqing Palace are too much; promote it, then deny it. Donât you dare! Iâll report you and expose you!â
âBesides, your Daoists here have already admitted people at Shangqing Palace know Kung Fu. Why are you doing this now?â
âYes, yes, if you canât, find someone else!â
Not only the onsite audience but Chen Rongrongâs livestream also became more explosive!
Most were negative.
Believing Shangqing Palace had the suspicion of false advertising and wouldnât visit such places in the future.
Seeing everyoneâs reactions, Chen Rongrong chuckled inwardly.
In this world, there is really no such thing as Kung Fu; even if there is, itâs merely health-preserving boxing and martial moves.
Itâs not even remotely like those wall-climbing feats shown in TV.
Therefore, the Daoists of Shangqing Palace couldnât possibly satisfy the people present!
The label of false advertising was certainly confirmed!
Future attempts to recover would be quite challenging.
Zhou Jinâs methods were really something.
âCalm down, everyone.â
Confronted with everyoneâs verbal attacks, Li Yongnian could only try to persuade kindly.
After all, they had to run a business and earn incense money, couldnât afford to offend these people.
âWe do know a few things, but theyâre different from what you might expect. If youâd like, I can show you something.â
âHurry up and start; weâre all waiting.â
Helplessly, Li Yongnian took a sword and under the watchful eyes of the crowd, demonstrated a Tai Chi Swordsmanship routine.
Originally thinking that after performing, these people could be sent away, but unexpectedly, they started to ridicule.
âIsnât this just Tai Chi Sword? I see it in the park at my community every day.â
The middle-aged female tourist spoke:
âWe traveled for several hours to come to Shangqing Palace, and this is all you show us? This level at the so-called birthplace of Daoism?â
