"Jianghu people?"
Double Stead Wine listened and just sneered: "It's a wonder you Trick Zhao still rember your origins in the jianghu."
"Otherwise, I would have thought it was so noble gentleman coming our way."
"Thinking of you tricker's lineage, relying solely on cunning tricks, wandering the jianghu, leaving behind sses, at best showing a smiling face in front of the noble hall for a lifeti."
"Throughout the centuries, how many tis have you really eaten at the table, and now you want to be above it all, masquerading as a monkey that has donned a crown, transforming into a mouse?"
"..."
He slapped that little master, already provoking shock and anger.
Yet the words he spoke were even harsher than that slap, instantly filling the entire town with flushed, angry faces.
As for the matter of transforming into a mouse, it referred to the surrounding disease of mouse transformation, with the Zhao Family controlling one of the Eight Sceneries of Netherworld, the Clothes Stripping Pavilion, said to determine whether one's next life is reincarnation as a human or a beast."
The trick door's talent for creating beasts originated from this as well, with the Zhao Family turning those who seized grain into mice, effectively issuing a challenge to the Reincarnator.
Yet unexpectedly, only one person ca, and he imdiately wanted to criticize their actions."
"They kill innocents, refuse to farm, claim lives and seize grain, how are they different from mice?"
And facing Double Stead Wine's rebuke, deep within the town, soone also shouted loudly: "You initiated this massacre, saying fate is of no weight, but don't you see whether those lowly people are truly as you claim?"
"Parading under the guise of grain seekers, yet acting like bandits and villains, sweeping in, trampling family doors, killing countless, violating wives and daughters, how many innocent lives were lost?"
"Zhao Family people's vision is sharp, indeed precise, but their mindset is too shallow, and they cannot see far."
Double Stead Wine also faced the crowd coolly: "You see the innocent being killed, I see even more people that need to live."
"With a multitude of happenings, injustices are visible, punishing wrongdoings is only right, but blaming the many for the one, reversing cause and effect, and letting people starve to death, is that good?"
"..."
"More words are useless!"
Seeing the argunt rise, it was from deep within the town, soone sternly shouted: "If you wish to start this massacre, then so be it, if you want to save these transford mice, the thod to cure them lies at the end of the town, on the incense table, co take it with your capability!"
"The Zhao Family's hundred tricks, right here, waiting for you to break the magic!"
"..."
Paths were already drawn, and the small town was the arena, the Zhao Family people, even unwilling to say more.
But Double Stead Wine listened, only coldly smiling, his gaze sweeping over the town, and those countless faces filled with anger, and also over those with varied, yet sowhat comical appearances.
He sighed lightly, saying: "I would indeed like to engage in a magic duel with you in the trickster Path you're best at, it's always the most amusing thing to uncover the bottom of a trick..."
"But unfortunately, your magic is not clever enough."
"..."
Just this line already angered countless capable ones in the trickster Path, the most despised thing is for others to claim their magic is not clever enough.
The trick door itself largely cos from the jianghu, and many cannot recognize more than a few characters.
When in a good mood, even if spat upon, they still welco with a smile, but in a bad mood, a single disagreent leads to drawing knives, and at this ti, soone angrily shouted: "If you have the skill, show us a more impressive one..."
"Even if the trickster Path excels at turning falsehood into truth, it cannot wash off its stench and transform into a dignified noble in a high hall."
But Double Stead Wine did not even wait for their response and already continued directly: "Instead, those nobles can secretly take away heaven and earth's weight, causing the human world not to have enough grain, making the common folk truly believe this is their fate!"
His voice gradually lowered, then a smile appeared at the corners of his mouth as he slowly looked up.
He pulled up a piece of black cloth with both hands, covering his eyes, then smiled and spoke: "So today, I indeed have to show you sothing more impressive."
"Not good!"
Faced with the trickster's dazzling tricks, widening one's eyes still feels insufficient, yet now in the midst of myriad tricks, he even covered his eyes.
Noticing his unusual deanor, the capable ones within the trickster Path had already sensed sothing, and all shouted loudly: "Do not listen to his demonic words, quickly seize him, and then ask his accomplices to show themselves!"
In an instant, drums and rattles beat all over the town.
Faces painted with oil, stepping square steps, approaching every step, facial features twisting, eyes wildly turning, sinister and eerie.
Dragging a piece of green cloth, the cloth bulged with human faces, as if countless little ghosts were hidden beneath.
Swallowing swords and wielding blades, they spat out a cloud of fire, within which weapons clashed.
Even Luo Guo'er ran swiftly, and as he ran, a head erged from his back, and another from his belly, both glaring, murderous intent soaring.
The Ten Families Sect Path, Zhao Family got a 'trick' word, now the hundred tricks appear, only chaos and confusion are seen, just watching makes one dizzy and dazzled, if truly to break the Zhao Family's populace, speaking of one, it could be a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand, yet they cannot break so many.
But now Double Stead Wine, his face already covered by the black cloth, simply turned a blind eye to it all, amidst the sound of drumming, he stepped the Gang Step, circled around, and then firmly pointed forward.
Pointing right at a bowl on the ground, inside was the Copper Coin he had rewarded the little girl performing when he first entered the town.
One coin, what can it count for?
...
...
Just before Double Stead Wine entered the small town, Old Sorghum of the Anzhou Reincarnator, along with fellow practitioners, arrived at the Xinshan Evil Valley, now already being called Mouse Mountain.
