I manifested the Shushan game

Chapter 333 Is this what 10 Heavenly Venerable followers are like?
Chen Han racked his brains trying to figure out what these 10 Heavenly Venerable followers were, but he couldn't figure out how the Taoist sect could have 10 followers who worshipped the Demon-Subduing Heavenly Venerable.

It seems there should be a total, since there are still many Taoist believers, but those believers are all ordinary people, and they would never go to a place like the Demon Realm, let alone go on an expedition.

Could they be online trolls?
That's still possible. As long as someone organizes it and uses a VPN, it's not difficult to cause trouble on foreign websites.

But online trolls aren't believers in the Celestial Venerable.

Just as Chen Han was trying to figure it out, his junior sister called, and the second day of the Chen Family Maze experience began.

He also put aside the matter of the 10 Celestial Venerable followers and went to the maze first.

Today, even more people have gathered at the maze, all drawn by yesterday's buzz. Those who managed to snag tickets are eager to try it out and see if the illusion of the maze is really that magical.

When Chen Han arrived, his junior sister was with his uncle. The host on stage today was a girl from the Chen family, who majored in broadcasting in college.

However, this kind of professional job is not easy to find. I went back to work at Chen's before, as a tour guide. Now I've been called here to take charge of this matter.

After all, Xiaoyu can't be busy with this kind of thing all the time.

His uncle then handed him another picture: "I changed seven positions and also updated it on Chen Qing's end."

Chen Han took it and looked at it. It was the location of several key points of the Chen Family Maze that had been changed overnight after the maze ended yesterday.

This is why rubble piles are used; they are easy to move and can be moved around to different paths at any time.

Because mazes themselves have perceptual and visual effects, changing a few areas, along with variations in the maze itself, can completely transform it into another set of numerical changes in the evolution of the Bagua (Eight Trigrams).

There are 64 groups of these variations, which can be changed at any time.

Therefore, the route map that Wei Hang created was actually harmless. It was just that he didn't expect that even with the correct route map yesterday, not a single tourist could successfully break through the formation.

The main problem is that no one initially noticed the illusion of the maze. By the time they realized it, they were already trapped inside and the path no longer matched.

Even if you try them one by one, it's not so easy to find the answer after spending 100 million to develop the area.

I don't even have the physical strength for that.

How many people can climb from the foot of a mountain to the middle of it without getting out of breath?

Besides, we were wandering around in such mountainous forests.

Yesterday, some people tried to take shortcuts by avoiding the trails and climbing over piles of rocks, but the mountain forest that leads upwards is not only steep but also has a slope. People who are exhausted from climbing the mountain trails normally cannot climb for long.

The key point is that this is also dangerous.

The Chen family already has countermeasures in place.

However, now that the details of the maze have been revealed, people will likely still follow Wei Hang's path on the second day, and some will even try to find their way if they see that the path is wrong.

But today they will find that the path map is truly useless.

As visitors progress further, they will discover that there are more and more paths that can be combined in Chen's Maze.

With 64 sets of numbers and 64 possible paths, the workers in the workshop can change the path by modifying some piles of rubble.

Even the Bagua and Zhouyi, when evolved to a deeper level, can be combined into groups of numbers, which adds even more variables.

After all, the evolution of the Eight Trigrams and the Book of Changes is infinitely possible. Without mastering the laws governing the evolution of the Eight Trigrams and the Book of Changes, it is impossible to break the formation.

We're just using a simple path of 64 sets of numbers, which is actually the simplest way. After all, it's for tourists. As long as you understand the I Ching and have some mathematical knowledge, you can solve the puzzle.

People like Master Qingwei should familiarize themselves with mathematical knowledge; it will be easier for them to break through ordinary mazes next time. As for the special version, with its game system attributes forcibly influencing it, it will be very difficult to break through without great perseverance.

After reviewing the map, Chen Han returned it to his uncle and instructed him, "Uncle, the path of this maze should be changed every now and then; there should always be some fresh changes."

"Okay!" Chen Lin nodded.

At this moment, the girl in charge of hosting announced that today's maze experience had begun, and another figure hurriedly squeezed onto the stage, almost falling over because he was in such a hurry.

It's still Weihang.

He has to be in a hurry; he has to be the first one today.

Fortunately, he managed to snag a ticket last night, giving him a chance to redeem himself.

Last night, his account was flooded with messages, especially from tourists who entered the maze yesterday. They all said he was harming people, and some even said he would do anything for traffic.

There are still many people online who support these tourists. There's no way around it; there will always be those who dislike him, and he's been really badly attacked online.

Unfortunately, his route map really tricked a lot of tourists, even though the real reason was that the Chen family's maze itself was incredibly powerful.

Therefore, he had nothing to say.

However, he checked the route map again last night and found that his map was not wrong at all.

Then he suddenly realized something.

That's how powerful Chen's illusion array is; it can actually deceive people's vision, making them see an incredibly realistic illusion, just as amazing as the arrays in movies and TV shows.

But one thing remains constant: the path.

The flowers, trees, and piles of rocks are all over there, so as long as you overcome the influence of the illusion and firmly follow his path from the beginning, you can break the formation.

Thinking of this, he slapped his thigh hard.

Doesn't that solve the problem?
As long as there are no mistakes at the beginning, then no matter how big the map is, following the path is the right thing to do.

Therefore, he must be the first today to announce this, to salvage his reputation, and at the same time, to receive the first-place commemorative plaque and the 5 yuan prize.

When they saw that Weihang had snatched the first spot to go on stage again, some people who recognized him immediately booed him, since many people had been tricked by him yesterday.

The crucial point is that the other party's QR code has been used to ask for help 132 times, which is worse than many tourists. And this is supposed to be a professional player?

What kind of professional maze player is he? He doesn't even deserve the title.

Hearing the boos, Wei Hang said loudly and awkwardly, "Everyone knows what happened yesterday. Many people thought they were tricked by my path map, and I also thought I tricked myself. Who would have thought that Chen's Maze could deceive people's eyes and make them see such a realistic illusion?"

“I thought about it for a long time last night and finally came to the conclusion that my path map was not wrong. You can figure it out by thinking about it. I took pictures of the entire maze from above and then drew the path.”

"In this case, the path remains the same. The only variable is that Chen's maze can deceive people's eyes and create illusions, such as large trees and piles of rocks that obstruct the view on the correct path."

"But in this situation, as long as our eyes are not deceived, and we ignore the illusions that appear, we can easily break through the formation by following my path map."

Wei Hang's words stunned many people, especially those who had entered Chen's Maze yesterday, who suddenly realized the truth.

"it seems to be like this."

"At the time, I was unaware of the situation. By the time I realized it was an illusion, I was already trapped inside the formation."

"Damn, what he said makes some sense."

"... "

Immediately, the tourists started discussing it.

Huang Tao was also surprised.

Yesterday he felt that Weihang couldn't be blamed for that situation, and after hearing what the other party said today, he realized that it really made sense.

The key point is that he managed to snag tickets again last night, so he can try his luck today using Weihang's method.

So we need to be quick to get in first.

Thinking about it, he squeezed to the front as well.

Wei Hang, who was on stage, naturally heard what the tourists said and breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew that once he said that, the others would understand.

So, now it's time for me to redeem myself.

He also shouted to the tourists around him, "Today, I will definitely win first place!"

After watching Wei Hang finish speaking and go to collect the special device bracelet, Chen Han, Xiao Yu, and Chen Lin shook their heads. This guy was going to suffer another big setback this time.

Wei Hang had no idea that after receiving the special device bracelet, he walked into the Chen family's maze.

This time he was full of confidence.

Once inside the formation, proceed quickly.

After passing through the first fork in the road, he went through the second fork in the road.

Soon, he arrived at the place where there were four forks in the road after the third turn, but this time, he found that he had taken the wrong fork.

It was just another hallucination.

There is a correct fork in the road in the middle, and going through it will lead to the correct path, but now there is a pile of rubble there.

Same old tricks.

He even suspected that although Chen's maze could affect people's vision, the location of this effect might be fixed.

This was the place yesterday, and it's the place today.

Wei Hang was naturally not going to fall for it again, and walked straight toward the pile of rocks, so confident that he had no scruples whatsoever.

Peng! ~
"Ah!" Wei Hang's shout followed immediately. He was seen clutching his head, tears welling up in his eyes from the pain.

Then I was completely dumbfounded.

It really is a pile of rubble.

No...no...

He reviewed the route last night, so there's no way it could be wrong, but the pile of rocks in front of him is definitely real.

Wei Hang couldn't believe it.

At the same time, they realized that the path of Chen's maze could actually be changed.

What's the point of playing this game?
More importantly, it seems he's going to embarrass himself again today.

The more I think about it, the more unwilling I am.

Weihang immediately thought of an unorthodox method: to climb over the pile of rocks. He acted immediately, and because the pile of rocks was stacked upwards, it took him a lot of physical effort to climb over it.

However, when he had climbed halfway up, the special device bracelet on his hand started vibrating, alerting him to a violation. Depending on the severity of the violation, he would either fail directly or be given more opportunities to ask for help, with the number of requests depending on the severity of the violation.

This was also due to the summary yesterday, where Chen Qing discovered this problem and upgraded the identification process for the special device bracelet.

It's not that tourists are forbidden from using this method to forcefully break through the formation; as long as they have enough physical strength, it's actually possible to break through the formation this way. The main problem is the danger.

After all, this is a maze developed in the mountains and forests.

Upon seeing this notification, Wei Hang was speechless. If he went out like this, he would lose his eligibility, and he wouldn't be able to get the souvenir or the reward.

He had no choice but to change course and try his luck again.

Soon, other tourists also came in. Because of what Weihang had just said, some people still believed his route map. So, many tourists were blocked at the second entrance and started cursing.

One tourist even touched his nose directly, causing his nose to bleed profusely.

The tourist had no choice but to press the distress button on the special device, and was then taken out by the Chen family members who came in.

When this tourist emerged from the maze entrance, he attracted the attention of the other tourists.

Before they could even react, they heard the tourist cover his nose and yell, "Bastard! Weihang, that scoundrel! His route map is useless! Liar...liar..."

These words left the tourists stunned.

What's going on? Is Weihang a scammer again?

What the other party just said seems to make a lot of sense. Does that mean we can't even ignore the visual deception in the maze?
The tourist was taken to the medical room, and thankfully there was nothing wrong. The Chen family gave the tourist a small gift and a souvenir craft, which made the tourist very happy.

Tourists who can visit Chen's place safely and collect their tickets inside are not inherently bad people; otherwise, they would have been punished severely long ago. Therefore, there would be no cases of people trying to extort money or anything like that because they were injured.

This is an absolutely fantastic thing compared to other scenic spots.

Outside the Chen family's maze, the tourists were itching to explore, their curiosity completely piqued, since they had previously thought Weihang's words made sense.

The opponent's path map is indeed taken from the air, so there's no way there could be a problem. Theoretically, if we're not visually deceived, then we should be able to break through their formation.

Now it seems that the situation is not like that. Chen Han naturally saw the shouts of the tourist with the nosebleed and roughly understood what was going on.

If you completely believe what Wei Hang says, and treat the real as an illusion, you're bound to get hurt.

Inside the maze, Weihang quickly became completely desperate; he couldn't get out, there was no way out.

This time, his reputation is likely to be ruined again.

He even considered scanning the QR code to leave and get out of Chen's place as soon as possible, but then he thought about how there were so many tourists outside, and going out now would just mean being made a clown by so many people.

How is this possible?

So he planned to sneak out towards the end of the day; that's right, he planned to hide and wait until evening.

This was the only way he could think of that wouldn't be too embarrassing.

But just as the thought crossed his mind, he heard a familiar voice: "Ugh, Weihang really screwed me over today, that bastard."

Moreover, there were voices echoing this sentiment:

"Yes, they spoke with such conviction."

"What a bastard, I shouldn't have believed him."

"Indeed, I actually believed his ghost."

Wei Hang stared in astonishment as he saw a familiar figure approaching, accompanied by several others.

Huang Tao was also surprised to see Wei Hang; they had run into each other again.

This made him look at the other person with a wicked smile again. As he said before, when trapped in this kind of maze, the data would look terrible.

If it's going to be ugly, then we'll all be ugly together.

Wei Hang immediately had a sense of familiarity. A moment later, he found that his special device bracelet had fallen into the other party's hands. A moment later, his frustrated voice rang out: "Damn it... not again."

Wei Hang was truly helpless. The other party was a complete bastard, taking his special device bracelet and scanning every QR code he saw without any illusions, just for fun.

If we go out, we'll have to scan it over 100 times.

Oh my god.

commit a sin.

Is it appropriate for a professional maze player like him to scan so many QR codes for help?

But he was helpless; the other party was a beast, doing the same thing to him twice.

The key question is, how could he be so unlucky as to run into the other person twice in a row?
Wei Hang eventually gave up resisting, and when he reappeared at the entrance of the maze, he was completely exhausted.

The tourists were instantly drawn to him when he came out, and some internet celebrities even went up to interview him to capitalize on his popularity.

These people knew something was wrong when they saw the tourist with a nosebleed earlier, and they were even more certain now that they saw Weihang's dejected look. They started snapping photos of his face.

Wei Hang wanted to explode, but he didn't want to give the impression of being angry, so he could only remain silent. He quickly had the Chen family take away the special device bracelet, and then he lowered his head and fled from the area.

His disheveled appearance was captured on camera.

Chen Han was completely unaware of all this, because he had already received a call from Master Li and was heading to the Demon-Slaying Heavenly Venerable Hall.

Master Li naturally came because of Ma Haidla. After all, taking this expert from beyond the realm into the Taoist sect was already somewhat of an official mission.

Using the pretext of cultural inheritance and dissemination, it's really hard to find a valid excuse to criticize them.

When Chen Han arrived at the main hall of the Demon-Slaying Celestial Venerable, his aunt had already come to greet him: "Master Li and the others are in the guest hall."

Chen Han nodded and walked with his aunt toward the guest hall. Upon entering the classroom, they saw Master Li talking with Ma Haidra and teaching Ma Haidra how to fill out the forms for entering the Taoist sect.

Mahedra was very serious. He had previously entered Chen's dream and met that magical old Taoist priest, who told him to sincerely offer incense and pray for blessings, and someone would come to find him.

Sure enough, someone came looking for him and wanted to take him into the Taoist sect.

Although he didn't understand Taoism very well, he knew it was amazing when he heard that a celestial being protected Taoism.

After all, he had been burning incense and receiving blessings from the Heavenly Venerable every day for the past few days, and he felt that the illness he had suffered in the Demon Realm had improved a lot.

Even psychological trauma.

Several Taoist priests were sitting nearby.

Chen Han could tell at a glance that three of the Taoist priests were not in the correct posture and were not sitting cross-legged properly; these were probably temporary Taoist priests.

The Taoist priests around here were probably arranged by the Taoist Association to go to the Demon Realm with Ma Haidra to help build a Taoist temple.

Upon seeing Chen Han enter, all the Taoist priests turned to look at him, for everyone knew that he was a prominent figure in the Taoist community.

"Master Chen, we meet again." When Master Li saw him enter, he smiled and gave him a Taoist salute.

"Master Li," Chen Han returned the greeting with the same Taoist salute.

Both sides knew the other matters perfectly well and neither continued to discuss them.

Master Li knew that Patriarch Chen could guess the situation and that Patriarch Chen was unwilling to get involved in this matter. However, Ma Haidra had come to beg the Chen family for help and had been kowtowing to the Demon-Subduing Celestial Venerable for so many days. He also wanted the Chen family to accept Ma Haidra as a disciple.

For them, this was just a formality; it was different for Mahedra, and their explanations for many situations were also different.

Therefore, Master Li also mentioned this matter: "Patriarch Chen, I'm entrusting the quota of registered disciples for Ma Haidra to you."

Chen Han could only nod in agreement.

He had actually discussed this matter with his aunt, uncle, and others, and in the end, they all felt that it was not important for him, as the head of the family, the head of the hall, or even his aunt to accept disciples.

Therefore, Chen Jun (Chapter 102) was ultimately chosen to be accepted as a disciple.

Firstly, Chen Jun, like Chen Dalong, was his childhood playmate, always following him and his junior sister around playing house.

Chen Dalong, Chen Dao, and Chen Linlin have all gone to the national team, so the next batch of clansmen who will practice the "Tai Xu Chasing Wind Leg" are being selected.

Chen Jun was the one already chosen; having him to take on Mahedra was just right.

As for the other candidates to teach the "Tai Xu Chasing Wind Leg" technique, two more people will be selected from within the clan. The choice will depend on their performance, and younger people are preferred.

Because of their advanced age, they would require more resources and have already missed the optimal age for cultivation.

Unlike my uncle and his group, they are our own people, the core of the main lineage. Even if it's a waste of resources, it's still necessary for them.

Even the characterizations of the three younger uncles as experts and hall masters of the Chen family need to be further developed.

Finally, Chen Jun was completely bewildered when he was dressed in a Taoist robe, and Ma Haidra was also happy to put on a Taoist robe.

For him, the Taoist robe was very different; it was related to the gods.

In the main hall where the gods are worshipped, those who serve the gods are dressed in Taoist robes, and those who accept him into the Taoist sect are also dressed in Taoist robes.

Wearing this robe brings you closer to God.

"Mahaidra, congratulations on becoming a follower of the Celestial Venerable. From now on, your Dharma name will be Luo Haide!" Master Li, as a witness, smiled as he conferred the ordination upon Mahaidra.

It's just a Taoist register.

Upon seeing this, Chen Han said to Ma Haidra, "Our Chen family has been instructed by the Heavenly Venerable to bestow something upon you. Tomorrow morning at 10:30 is an auspicious time. The Chen family will hold a ceremony to invite the gods and consecrate a statue of the Heavenly Venerable for you."

"When the time comes, you will take the statue back and turn it into a Taoist temple. The Heavenly Venerable will protect you, and then you can use the things bestowed by the Heavenly Venerable."

What he wanted to give was naturally a special scroll of demonic manifestation, which was meant for Mahedra to take back and manifest.

Whether he can get a good reward from the Demon-Subduing Celestial Venerable depends on whether Haimadra can make good use of this Manifestation Scroll.

When Li Daoshi and the others heard Chen Han's words, they subconsciously looked at him.

The ceremony was supposed to end here; it was just to appease Mahidela, and the Taoist sect was merely cooperating in some matters.

Who knew that this Chen family head would pull such a stunt? The key point is that the other party is using the name of the Demon-Slaying Celestial Venerable. This must be something more than just a simple matter.

After all, we still need to give this Mahedra something. If it's useless, all the groundwork and deception we laid in the beginning will be for nothing.

One thing is certain: the Chen family is not simple, and the head of the Chen family may be more than he seems this time; I have a feeling he has ulterior motives.

However, they had no way to ask about such things, nor could they ask.

They actually had some expectations for it.

We can only wait until tomorrow to see what the Chen family will give them.

As the day passed and evening fell, the Chen's Maze once again became a hot topic online, especially the news about Weihang.

Because he scammed many tourists again, he did gain popularity this time, just as he expected, but it was negative; he lost a lot of his followers.

The next day, after Chen Han finished cultivating his special spiritual acupoints and preparing medicinal stew in his uncle's kitchen, he saw news videos about Wei Hang, one of which even went so far as to escalate the issue:

"A ridiculous internet celebrity, with his mediocre skills, actually dared to try and ruin the Taoist tradition! How laughable!"

The person who posted this video was utterly blunt, saying: "These past two days, I'm sure everyone knows about the Chen family's maze, and that it was set up by the Chen family head who scientifically sanctioned feng shui, along with many Taoist priests, including many in purple robes."

"Before this, these Taoist priests released arrays and formulas about the evolution of the Eight Trigrams and the Book of Changes, which are also the key to setting up and breaking formations. They even said that the key to breaking formations is to understand the evolution of the Eight Trigrams and the Book of Changes."

"The Eight Trigrams and the Book of Changes are a cultural tradition that has been passed down in our country for a very long time. Yet, an internet celebrity has come out to sensationalize things, thinking that just because he has played a few mazes, he can bypass the Eight Trigrams and the Book of Changes?"

"On the first day, this internet celebrity posted a route map and spread rumors online, thinking that Chen's Maze was nothing special. But the truth is, he got completely humiliated, which was ridiculous, and he also harmed many tourists."

"What's even funnier is that this internet celebrity was still not convinced. Thinking that he had made a small discovery, he actually thought he could solve the maze. Then, he made a fool of himself and embarrassed himself online. In the end, he could only run away in a sorry state. And this internet celebrity even claimed to be a professional maze player. It's really laughable."

At this point, the video also showed Weihang slinking away, just like a line from a movie: "His back looks like a dog's."

"Seriously, here I not only saw the ignorance of an internet celebrity who was chasing traffic, but also witnessed the wonder of the Taoist Bagua and Zhouyi evolution, which further proves the profoundness of Taoist cultural heritage. Therefore, I hope that all you ridiculous internet celebrities will stop trying to take advantage of Taoist heritage. You are not worthy of it."

After watching the video, Chen Han had to admit how sharp the blogger's words were. This should be fatal for Wei Hang, and he should be in for a while.

Afterwards, he checked the time and headed to the Demon-Slaying Heavenly Venerable's Hall.

Consecrating a statue of the Demon-Subduing Heavenly Venerable takes time and requires preparation. However, as the Chen family becomes more and more formal, Auntie's side also has a set of statues prepared regularly for consecration at crucial moments.

Once the prelude is complete, it is wrapped up and kept out of the light, placed behind the consecrated statue of the Heavenly Venerable, where no evil spirits dare to usurp its place.

The consecration of the statue today, which is to be presented to Mahedra, will also take place in a side hall on the other side.

When he arrived, Mahedra was already there, along with Master Li and his group, all waiting for him.

When he arrived, everyone turned to look at him.

In that instant, Chen Han froze, staring blankly at the game prompt in his mind:

The master of the Demon Realm has officially become a follower of the Demon-Slaying Celestial Venerable and will lead the Venerable's followers into the Demon Realm to spread the Venerable's glory.

10 followers of the Celestial Venerable are ready, awaiting your guidance to harness the Celestial Venerable's power!

"???" Chen Han subconsciously looked around.

10 followers of the Celestial Venerable are ready.

10?
He subconsciously looked around and counted.

1、2、3……8、9、10。

Master Li brought exactly 10 Taoist priests with him.

Go to hell.

The game system was so abstract this time that it really stumped him. Damn it, out of 10 believers, there were only 10 people?

You're learning short dramas, where one person represents ten thousand, right?
He had thought about it for so long beforehand.

However, he knew that the important matter at hand was the present, so he took out the special Demon Realm Manifestation Scroll with a flick of his hand, which once again attracted the attention of Master Li and his group.

Clearly, they have no idea how big a sensation this miraculous scroll will eventually cause.

……
