Death Game: Starting as a fraudster, pretending to be a god.

Chapter 697 Countermeasures and Gambling

In Lin Yu's guess, the time point when the Thousand-Eyed Thousand-Threaded Demon Lord restored Liu Town was most likely before Liu Town was about to be destroyed.

However, this is just speculation after all.

"Perhaps a true genius here could have unraveled all the threads here and found decisive evidence to confirm my hypothesis, but with this limited information, I can only choose... to take a gamble."

Lin Yu stood at the edge of the teahouse and couldn't help thinking.

But fortunately... this time, he made the right bet again.

The people who were queuing up at the entrance of Xinglin Medical Clinic to ask for divination went in one after another. When half of them had received satisfactory answers, a Taoist priest in a green robe appeared at the other end of the street, carrying a long banner.

The long banner was waving vigorously, and on the green banner were written the word "Taiqing" in seal script.

The Taoist didn't look old. He looked to be in his fifties, with a not-too-long beard and some mottled white hair on his temples.

He was wearing straw sandals and had two strings of copper bells hanging around his waist. He walked slowly from the other end of the street, and the copper bells rang from far away to near.

Lin Yu looked at the other party and quickly confirmed...

This guy is one of the two green-robed figures in the [Lens of Fear].

Even the few players who had never seen the [Lens of Fear] had their own guesses when they saw the Taoist priest in green robes who was obviously not an ordinary town resident passing by.

"Could this be the Grandmaster Taiqing?"

Snow Owl said, Lin Yu nodded: "Nine out of ten."

"Then let's go and meet him!"

Snow Owl spoke in surprise, but Gao Shan hesitated: "What if this is a false illusion created by Zhu Qiansi?"

After all, Liu Town is Zhu Qiansi's home turf. It is not impossible for her to detect the movements of several people and create illusions to lure them.

But Lin Yu shook his head.

"No, it shouldn't be."

he whispered.

"Zhu Qiansi doesn't dare to take this risk yet. Besides, this should be planned by Grandmaster Taiqing."

From the fact that Xuan Yunzi, the Taiqing Sect's priest and elder, dared to gamble with his own life and used the magic of transforming his Qi into another body to trap himself here and trick the demon into sealing him for an extra hundred years, Lin Yu could vaguely feel the style of Taiqing Sect, which was once the leader of the Taoist sect.

In the Prison Mountain Realm, powerful warriors could live twenty to thirty years longer than ordinary people. Those who practiced Taoism with deep cultivation could even live to be one hundred and fifty or sixty years older...

However, Taiqing Patriarch three hundred years ago was the first generation to establish the sect, and it has been passed down for more than two hundred years. Why is it only the sixth generation?

If there were only the sixth generation of disciples, it could be said that they were diligent in recruiting disciples, but Xuan Yunzi had already left Taiqing Sect seventy years ago, and at that time he was already a worshiper of Taiqing Sect.

Following this point of thought, it is not difficult to guess that most of the disciples of Taiqing Sect did not live very long.

Combined with Xuan Yunzi's astonishing statement just now that there were three thousand twelve-string demons in the world, and his tone of taking it for granted that those demons were the "responsibility" of Taiqing Sect disciples to deal with, it was not difficult for Lin Yu to infer why this was the case.

It is obvious that the disciples of Taiqing Sect do not value their lives - if they have the opportunity to exchange one for one with some big demon, they will definitely do it without hesitation.

Based on this, Lin Yu had no doubt that the terrifying demon "Thousand-Eyed Thousand-Threaded Demon Lord" would make the founder of Taiqing Sect leave a backup plan against her at the cost of some kind of "sacrifice" of himself.

Lin Yu couldn't be sure until he saw Master Taiqing himself appear.

But now, Lin Yu could clearly feel in his spiritual power that the current state of Taiqing Patriarch was different from that of all other residents of Liu Town.

If the other residents are like burning wicks, faint flames lodged in the thread of cause and effect, then the Taiqing Patriarch is a torch.

He is not "fake", but has a real soul - in this respect, he is somewhat similar to his group.

It’s just that our group has merged with the identities of some Liu Town residents, so if we don’t pay close attention, we won’t be able to see this.

But Patriarch Taiqing used his own identity, so he was particularly dazzling.

Lin Yu didn't think that Zhu Qiansi had taken the initiative to imprison the soul of Taiqing Patriarch... It was more like Taiqing Patriarch had taken the initiative to leave a backup plan.

and so……

"Come on, go down and have a look."

Lin Yu said softly.

Although all those present were well-known players from various large organizations, after Lin Yu's repeated analysis, accurate grasp of the situation, and precise timing of his actions in this [Instance]...

Everyone has subconsciously established trust in Lin Yu.

Although there is no time to think about why this little-known "Old Yao" from the small local organization "Jiang'an Hall" is so powerful, it is not impossible that a low-key master with little reputation suddenly emerges in the "Death Game".

Half of the people on the top 100 list chose to remain anonymous, and there are many people in the player community who are unwilling to reveal themselves.

Of course, half of the reason why everyone trusts Lin Yu is because Li Nian takes the lead well.

Soon the five of them walked down the teahouse and came to the street.

The green-robed Taoist priest with an extraordinary bearing, who was most likely the Taiqing Patriarch, also attracted the attention of many Liu Town residents.

However, because the Taoist in green robe looked very dignified, no one greeted him.

Lin Yu walked forward quickly and bowed.

"Taoist Master, please stay."

Looking at Lin Yu walking towards him, the Taoist in green robe was not nervous. Instead, he looked Lin Yu up and down.

"Layman, what do you mean by calling me a little monk?"

The Taoist in green robe spoke in doubt, his eyes clear and bright.

Lin Yu looked at the Taoist priest and asked, "Excuse me, Taoist priest, why are you here?"

"Of course, it's to rest," the green-robed Taoist said, his eyes sweeping over the other four players behind Lin Yu who were quietly watching him approach and negotiate. "May I ask, sir, why do you ask?"

"Of course I want to know what the Taoist intends to do," Lin Yu said confidently, as if he knew the Taoist in green robes very well. "And the Taoist misunderstood my question. I wasn't asking why you came to Liu Town... but why you came to this 'Xinglin Medical Clinic'."

The Taoist in green robes listened to Lin Yu's words, holding the long banner in his hand, and was slightly surprised: "How did you know that I was going to this 'medical clinic'? Do I look seriously ill?"

"Master, you're joking. Everyone knows that although the Xinglin Clinic is called a clinic, most people come to her daughter for fortune-telling these days."

As Lin Yu spoke, the Taoist in green robe looked at Lin Yu again, and seemed to be more and more confused about who was in front of him.

"Layman, who are you? Why did you suddenly stop me?"

When Lin Yu heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and finally confirmed one thing.

"It turns out that this Taoist didn't even realize he was in an illusion..."

Although Lin Yu still didn't think that Zhu Qiansi had taken in this soul on her own initiative, it was clear that Zhu Qiansi should not be completely without means of checks and balances.

but……

The fact that the Taoist who was suspected to be the Taiqing Patriarch had not figured out his identity was actually a good thing for Lin Yu!

He looked at the ancestor and spoke with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist, are you from the Taiqing Sect?"
