C1457 How Did the Rumors Come about

Doubts were like clouds that gradually rose in the snowy mountains. In the small village at the southwest border, they were like two flowers that had been bloomed in different spaces. Doubts also filled the entire village.

It was unknown when it started, but in this small stronghold, there were some mysterious rumors spreading. And the source of those rumors was the Mu Mu that suddenly became mysterious in the eyes of the stronghold's people!

The things described by the rumors were extremely simple. In the legends, the reason why this silly wood could suddenly become smart was because the Heroic Spirit from the ancestral tombs had entered his body, thus giving him such an unimaginable ability. Furthermore, the reason why Heroic Spirit had landed on the wood was because the Heroic Spirit from the ancestral tombs was very dissatisfied with their descendants!

The source of this dissatisfaction was the feng shui of the ancestral tombs! According to the rumors, there seemed to be some strange changes in the Feng Shui of the ancestral tomb. The Heroic Spirits living in the ancestral tomb were unable to be at peace day and night, which was why Mu Mu Mu became wise and told him to help the Heroic Spirits resolve this matter.

At the beginning, people did not believe these rumors, but as they spread more and more, everyone's heart began to loosen. It was because the rumors said that the logic was very simple. If it wasn't for the grace of the ancestors and the spirits, how could the silly wood from before have become so powerful? How could it have been able to take care of the Gu worms!

Therefore, when this rumor swept through everyone within the stronghold like a torrent of beasts, the way they looked at Mu Mu Mu had a strange change. Ever since the silly tree had shown its prowess and taken care of the Gu worms, the people inside the stronghold all looked at him with an indescribable sense of fear. However, after the rumor spread, their gazes were filled with even more respect!

The reason for this change was very simple, because they previously thought that the foolish wood was not ordinary, so they had his godly methods. But today, according to the rumors, the foolish wood had his ancestors and heroic spirits, so naturally, he was the spokesperson for his ancestors in the mortal world. He was the ancestor of their people, so how could they not respect his ancestors?

"Brother Mu Mu, is your method really that useful? These words have been around for so many days, why haven't I seen an uncle come to find you?" As the sun was setting in the west, the young and the old man were holding their chins as they stared at the setting sun. After a long time, the young man seemed a bit worried as he turned his head to look at the large figure and asked in a worried voice.

In this remote village, who else could enjoy the sight of the setting sun other than little A-Run and Lin Bai?

"You've already used all the methods I've taught you. Do you still fear that they won't believe you?" Lin Bai chuckled and patted A'Lu's head. He chuckled and said, "Don't tell me you didn't notice that the way Uncle and Aunt have been looking at me these past few days has started to change? Just you wait, in another two days, they will naturally be unable to restrain themselves from coming to find me. Right now, it is not us who are anxious, but them. "

The reason why this rumor spread out so mysteriously and even caused the villagers in the stronghold to become suspicious, other than Lin Bai, who else in the stronghold could have such methods?

Furthermore, the reason why Lin Bai's words were so confident was not because he was arrogant, but because he had spent a great deal of effort to make these rumors reliable. He truly did not believe that he would be unable to achieve any effect after spending so much effort!

The rumors were spread by Ah Run and Shi Yan. However, the first thing they told were not the adults in the village, but some four or five-year-old kids. Although this method looked normal, it was actually based on the use of children's words. Since ancient times, there had always been children's songs that hinted at the effectiveness of certain matters.

As far as Lin Bai knew, the people in this stronghold all held their ancestors' deities in high esteem. In addition to their reverence for the methods that they had displayed, these seemingly ridiculous words were actually able to accurately check their pulse.

Moreover, when Lin Bai was tidying up the rumors, he was even more cautious. He used the reverence these villagers had for their ancestors to change his appearance and become the spokesperson for the ancestors' deities in the stronghold.

Not only that, but in these rumors, Lin Bai had also used a small psychological tactic – a person's vanity!

To these villagers, no matter how powerful Lin Bai's methods were, he was still an outsider in the end, so it was impossible for them to completely trust him. But now, Lin Bai had pushed all of the reasons for this transformation onto the ancestors' gods, which naturally caused these villagers who worshipped their ancestors to feel a little more vanity in their hearts!

How could Mu Mu be so powerful? Not because of him, but because of our ancestor! Without the ancestor god's help, Mu Mu was still that silly little brat. With the ancestor god's help, he became so powerful!

This is how our ancestors were, this is how awesome! After all, no one would resist this kind of flattery. When they heard that the rumours had said that all the credit had been given to their ancestors, these extremely reverent villagers would naturally believe fifty to sixty percent of what the ancestors had said. At least they wouldn't feel any resistance.

As long as these villagers did not feel that this rumor was mysterious and did not have any thoughts of resisting, it was enough for Lin Bai. This was because to Lin Bai, these rumors were only the first step!

The second step he took was to borrow the strength of some of the ancient emperors or rebels' common omens of heaven and earth. Those 'stone men with one eye, stir up the world and rebel', 'Chen Sheng Wang, Big Chu Xing', to this small village, they were all too grand, so Lin Bai used the simplest method!

It was to use honey water to daub the words on the ground. The insects that were extremely fond of the smell of honey would naturally fly in droves once they smelled the scent of honey. When that time came, the words would naturally form a worm's handwriting on the ground!

And what Lin Bai did was to let Shi Yan enter the mountain and find a beehive, and make some honey. Then, when it was dark, he would write the word 'Fierce' in the path in front of the grave!

If this method were to be used in the outside world, it would naturally be known by countless people. However, to these honest and honest villagers who had never been out of the mountains in their entire lives, it was a true revelation!

Just as Lin Bai had expected, the moment the word 'fierce' appeared in front of the ancestral grave, a huge commotion broke out in the village that was originally as calm as water. Especially because of the rumors from before, the villagers began to panic. The combination of vanity and fear allowed his trust in these words to soar from fifty to seventy to eighty percent!

Although these villagers still had a seemingly ordinary doubt in their hearts, these questions were extremely important. If it were any ordinary person, they would have already reached their limit! However, to Lin Bai, the remaining two points were seamlessly within his grasp. He could also make the trust these villagers had for him into ten points!

However, Lin Bai was also very clear on the principle of overflowing with doubt, so he was not in a hurry to dispel the remaining two points of doubt in these villagers' hearts. Instead, he was waiting for them to find him and beg him to dispel those two points.

The reason was simple. If he went looking for those people, he would make them feel that he had something up his sleeves. They would doubt the rumours and omens. Only when these villagers came looking for him, they would make sure of it!

Although the matter of the ancestral tomb turning into a resting place for corpses was burning at the tip of his eyebrows, he still had to wait! Thus, Lin Bai acted as if nothing had happened and made a name for himself!

The more he was like this, the more suspicious he was in the hearts of the villagers, and the more they wanted to find out the reason behind this! Furthermore, as far as Lin Bai was concerned, his method had indeed yielded considerable results. Even the parents who had taken him in for an entire year, under these omens, rumours and doubts in their hearts, had a great change in their gazes as they looked at him.

However, Lin Bai acted as if he did not know these eyes and the random words that were being spoken. He quietly waited, waiting for these rumors to become the truth in these people's hearts and then setting off a huge uproar!

"Brother Mu, you're too evil, even Abba Amma had to deceive you. Last night, I heard them secretly say that they were going to burn two incense sticks in front of your door every day to pay homage to your ancestors' gods!" Upon hearing Lin Bai's words and recalling his parents' actions from before, he could not help but feel speechless. He could not help but shake his head with a bitter smile.

"It's not that I'm bad, it's that I have no other choice. If we don't use this method, we won't be able to deal with the matter of the ancestral tomb! For now, don't tell Uncle or Aunt about this, but keep it a secret. " Lin Bai sternly warned A'un a few times before teasing, "But you have to tell Uncle and Aunt that the ancestors' gods do not like to eat the smell of incense. What they love to eat is fish and meat!"

"I can see that Brother Mu Mu likes to smell the scent of fire! If not, how could you have so many schemes!?" "When we get back to the party, I'll light two incense sticks in front of your door!" After he said that, he ran down the mountain with a giggle!

"Little girl, where are you running to?" Lin Bai patted his butt and stood up, pretending to be angry at this little girl. He followed closely behind her down the mountain. Although he looked happy on the surface, there was still a hint of worry hidden in the depths of his eyes!

He originally did not want to use such despicable methods like rumours, but due to his fear of Grandma Zhu, he had no choice but to use them. Moreover, if he wanted Grandma Zhu to reveal her true identity, he could only use such methods to shake the mountains and shake the tiger!

However, what he did not understand was that now that everyone's words were as good as gold and rumors were flying everywhere, why was there still no movement from Grandma Zhu?!
