#2287 - Who to trust
Pigsy arrived at the entrance of the Buddhist hall, pondered for a moment, and then stepped inside. He went to the side of Koushan Ren's daughter, put his hands together, and made a gesture of worshiping the Buddha.
"You are a disciple of Tang Monk."
Koushan Ren's daughter was immersed in chanting scriptures and worshiping Buddha. At this moment, she was interrupted and couldn't help but be startled when she saw Pigsy.
"Indeed, I couldn't sleep late at night, and I saw that there was a Buddhist hall here, so I came to pay homage to the Buddha.
I didn't want to disturb the female benefactor's chanting, it's really a sin, a sin."
Pigsy was, after all, a good hand at picking up girls, and knew how to deal with young women.
"Master is too polite, I'm just troubled in my heart."
Koushan Ren's daughter said to Pigsy with a slight smile.
"I wonder what is troubling the female benefactor?"
Pigsy naturally didn't come in to worship the Buddha, but wanted to hear news from Koushan Ren's daughter.
"Elder, you may not know, but in fact, my father has been coerced."
As Koushan Ren's daughter spoke, she actually shed tears, looking like a pear blossom in the rain.
"Koushan Ren is rich and powerful in this Diling County, who can coerce him?"
Pigsy questioned Koushan Ren's daughter.
"Elder, my father is kind by nature and has always been charitable, never arguing with others, but as a result, he is seen as someone who can be bullied by villains.
The housekeeper and my second mother have joined forces to try to seize our family property. They also threatened my father, asking him to cooperate with them and keep Tang Monk and your disciples here.
As for how they plot, my father and I don't know."
Koushan Ren's daughter said to Pigsy while crying.
"There is such a thing!"
Pigsy was greatly surprised when he heard Koushan Ren's daughter say this.
"I implore Tang Monk and your disciples to stay and help my father, otherwise, he will surely be harmed by the housekeeper and that vicious woman."
Koushan Ren's daughter said, kowtowing to Pigsy in request.
"Please rise, female benefactor, if things are really like this, we will definitely not ignore it."
Pigsy said to Koushan Ren's daughter.
After returning, Pigsy told Tang Monk and the others the news he had heard.
"Could it be that the housekeeper and the second wife are people from the Western Paradise, and Koushan Ren is just being coerced?"
"If that's the case, why did the housekeeper warn us?"
"What kind of role does Koushan Ren's son play in all of this?"
Tang Monk and his disciples gathered all the information they knew and found that it was really a mess.
"This time, the Western Paradise is much more clever."
Chu Hao couldn't help but smile when he heard this news.
The Western Paradise may have learned from previous lessons, and they felt that simple arrangements could no longer hide from Chu Hao and Tang Monk's disciples.
So they designed such a confusing formation here. This Koushan Ren and his family are all mortals, and through their mouths, they convey different information to Tang Monk and the others.
"Immortal Chu Hao, you are resourceful, I wonder what your opinion is?"
Tang Monk and his disciples discussed for a while and couldn't come to a conclusion, so they could only turn to Chu Hao for help.
"Simply listening to what they each say, I can't distinguish the truth from the falsehood, so we can temporarily ignore whether what they say is true or false.
Within this Kou family, it can be divided into three parties. Koushan Ren and his daughter are one group, the second wife and the housekeeper are one group, and as for Koushan Ren's son, he can temporarily be divided into another group.
As for whether these three parties are supported by the Western Paradise and other forces behind the scenes, or whether the Western Paradise deliberately created it to confuse us, we don't need to rush to distinguish these things.
We can lock our target on that Merit Dharma Assembly, that must be the most critical place where the Western Paradise is using its schemes."
Chu Hao analyzed to Tang Monk and the others, as long as the key target is locked, then it will be easier to see who is right and who is wrong next.
"Immortal Chu Hao is right."
"We all listen to my brother."
"The boss's judgment is always correct."
Tang Monk and his disciples all nodded in agreement with what Chu Hao said, and decided to act according to Chu Hao's intentions.
The next day, the Kou family seemed very busy. According to the people in the Kou mansion, they were preparing for the Merit Dharma Assembly three days later.
"Being so busy preparing for a Merit Dharma Assembly, the scale of that Merit Dharma Assembly will definitely not be small."
Tang Monk couldn't help but say.
In fact, this is also a consistent trick of the Western Paradise. The Merit Dharma Assembly must be aimed at the entire Diling County, inviting the people of Diling County to participate.
Using the mouths of Tang Monk and the others to promote Buddhism to the people of Diling County, accumulating fame and merit for the Western Paradise.
"Elder Tang, did you rest well last night?"
At this moment, Koushan Ren came with the housekeeper.
In fact, Tang Monk and the others also discovered that from the time they entered the Kou mansion, this housekeeper was always following Koushan Ren.
This housekeeper was so inseparable, it seemed to have some meaning of monitoring Koushan Ren.
However, when Koushan Ren greeted Tang Monk and the others, the housekeeper secretly winked at Tang Monk and the others, seemingly reminding Tang Monk and the others.
Reminding Tang Monk and the others not to trust Koushan Ren, and to quickly leave Diling County according to his reminder yesterday.
These two always appeared together, and their attitudes were different, which really made it difficult for Tang Monk to distinguish.
At this moment, a noisy sound suddenly came from the back garden.
Listening to the words of the noisy sound, it seemed that Koushan Ren's son and the second wife were arguing.
"Oh dear, I've made Elder Tang laugh, I'm going to go take a look."
Koushan Ren's expression changed when he heard the quarrel between the second wife and his son. He said something to Tang Monk and then turned to the back garden.
Tang Monk winked at Sun Wukong, and Sun Wukong immediately understood, transformed into a flying bird, and quickly flew to the back garden.
At this moment, in the back garden, Koushan Ren's son and the second wife were indeed arguing fiercely.
"You rebellious son, how dare you speak to me like this, you are really unfilial."
The second wife scolded Koushan Ren's son like a reprimand.
"You woman, you are the scourge of our Kou family, don't think I don't know why you came to our Kou family.
If you push me too hard, I might as well reveal the truth to Tang Monk and the others, and then we will all die together."
Koushan Ren's son seemed to be provoked and threatened the second wife.
"Do you think that if you tell the truth, Tang Monk and the others will spare you? It won't do you any good to hurt both sides."
Sun Wukong listened to the quarrel between the two, and the words seemed to have revealed some meaning.
