"You discovered so much, but didn't tell me a single thing?"

The strawberry milkshake was incredible.

"How much?" Jiang Shu said dismissively, "It's alright."

"So, what Moore said that day about the constraints of the Temple of Lies can be considered a superficial phenomenon for the time being."

It's truly unexpected that, as fellow poets of lies, the ways in which they acquire the power of lies would have such subtle differences. Most people probably wouldn't even notice the difference between lies and falsehoods; it's remarkable that you thought of this.

Strawberry Milkshake was initially surprised that Jiang Shu had done so much without saying a word, then belatedly realized:

"No wonder I triggered the anti-magic stone before. So you were using me as an experiment. And the one just now was also for this reason."

If you had told me about this beforehand, I could have just cooperated with you directly. Why go through all this trouble?

“Telling you won’t work.” Jiang Shu shook his head: “If you knew beforehand, wouldn’t you know that it was actually the truth that seemed like a lie?”

“That’s true.” Strawberry Milkshake nodded, then looked thoughtful: “Then why do you think there’s such a difference between the two mouths of gods, whose power comes from the same source? Is it possible that they were tampered with by someone?”

"If that's the case, then it can only be Da Hong Pao, right? Because he's the only one who's different from the others."

"Is that why you want to see Da Hong Pao?" Strawberry Milkshake suddenly realized.

"Yes, I have the same suspicion, but since I can't get in touch with the higher-ups of the Temple of Lies, I can't find any evidence. I can only wait for good news from Radish and Cabbage."

Jiang Shu nodded, thought for a moment, and then said:

"However, the problem remains the same: using only Moore as an experiment does not have universal applicability. If we make a judgment so easily, we will repeat the mistake of being prejudiced."

So, before things are settled, I plan to continue experimenting until I'm certain that all poets of lies operate this way.

"That's really meticulous." Strawberry Milkshake couldn't help but admire Jiang Shu.

"In short, this is all the intelligence we have gathered so far, and I feel we are getting closer and closer to the truth."

Strawberry Milkshake then asked, "What about the royal court? Should we ask Edward to arrange a meeting? Perhaps they'll make some other discoveries."

"I've considered it, but it's not very meaningful."

Jiang Shu shook his head:

"The restrictions were imposed a long, long time ago. Edward is aware of this, but because the Oasis Chamber of Commerce has a long history, some records from that time have been left behind."

If there is indeed some crucial omission that makes Edward's account of history unfalsifiable, then it means that this part of the content has been deliberately omitted from the records.

The situation on Wang Ting's side is probably the same; the people have changed batch after batch, so whether you see them or not makes no difference.

Unless you meet the person in question, who now only has Da Hong Pao robes left, it's all just empty talk.

Or perhaps those who also coveted the immortality of the Crimson Robe would have meticulously recorded the events of that time, including those Crimson Robes and their families whose positions were hereditary.

Otherwise, it wouldn't make much sense.

"But if Da Hong Pao really did something, then it's not impossible that they tampered with things, right?" Strawberry Milkshake questioned. "Maybe even Da Hong Pao's understanding is flawed?"

"We'll have to wait and see how things go."

Jiang Shu has a very stable mindset:

"In short, nothing in the world is perfect. No matter how meticulous a plan is, there will always be flaws. We should just take it one step at a time."

"Actually, I've thought of another way," Strawberry Milkshake said.

"what?"

"If we obtain the power of lies in a different way than other poets of lies, is it possible that the situations we encounter after the seventh rank will also be different?"

Strawberry Milkshake pondered:

"Actually, if we want to confirm the differences between us and other poets of lies, we just need to walk all their paths, right?"

This simple and straightforward approach of applying knowledge to new situations may sound difficult, but Strawberry Milkshake has watched Jiang Shu grow step by step and knows that he has the ability to do it.

For other poets of lies, advancing to each rank is extremely difficult, but Jiang Shu's shameless actions allow him to acquire the power of lies as easily as eating and drinking.

It's as if he was born to do this.

Therefore, Strawberry Milkshake believes that Jiang Shu can do it very easily.

"I've actually been preparing for this."

Jiang Shu said:

"Although it was just an unintentional act at first, it seems that as long as I wait for it to explode, I should be able to obtain a huge amount of power of lies."

"You mean things in the market?"

"Yes."

Jiang Shu nodded:

"After all, this is a lie that has dragged half of Lie Town into the water. It's like I sacrificed the entire town of Lie Town. I dare say that no other Red Robe has the same conditions as me."

Therefore, the power of lies I can obtain from this is definitely enough for me to break through the threshold of the seventh rank.

"Now all that's needed is some time."

"Ah."

......

After a warm family dinner with Windsor and Edward.

The next morning, Jiang Shu and Strawberry Milkshake went to the Temple of Lies and didn't leave until evening.

The same thing happened for the next few days.

While Jiang Shu was still busy preparing radishes and cabbages, he caused trouble for many poets who were lying.

Some were familiar, and some were not familiar at first, but became familiar after the introductions by the dead fish eyes of Radish and Cabbage, Moore, and the Registration Hall. From white robes to blue robes, there were no exceptions.

It's euphemistically called a sampling survey.

Over the course of a few days, the entire Temple of Lies knew that a divine being had arrived at the White Robe Hall. Despite his young age, he had a series of legendary experiences that even the Anti-Magic Stone recognized.

Compared to some of them, even his completion of the Blue Robe Assessment seemed rather unremarkable.

It seemed like some kind of strange rule or legend.

After hearing the story of the divine being, he will make a request of you and then make you a part of his legendary experience.

You can refuse, but you have no reason to refuse.

Due to restrictions, the Liar Poet can usually only use lies of level one to three when swindling people in Lie Town. Even after using a level three lie, he has to submit a detailed report to confirm that he has not violated any rules.

But the divine being deeply impressed these temple poets.

His lies, or more accurately, his requests, often achieve an effect that transcends the level of mere lies.

At first, his request seemed absurd and amusing, which is exactly what the liar poet loves most. Later, everyone realized that they had been deceived as well.

Although the process was somewhat unscrupulous, it provided profound inspiration to the temple poets.

It can be called a benchmark in the industry and a model for employment training.

So at first, Jiang Shu took the initiative to reach out to people, but soon, he became a "poet of lies" who came every day, lining up to VIP him 50 times, wanting to hear him tell his legendary stories and then make a deal with the devil. Despite being extremely careful, they were still deceived for various reasons, even though they knew they would be fooled.

This led to the town of Lies soon being shrouded in gloom.

The townspeople had a feeling that after a long period of calm, the once honest poet of lies seemed to have started to stir up trouble again.

The resurgence of terror is a fact.

Many people suffered greatly from this, although they did not suffer any property loss or physical harm.

However, without exception, those experiences left a deep shadow on them.

Moreover, it's a shadow that's not easily shared with others.

It's like suffering a great loss because of some strange, unspeakable quirk, and in the end, you can only keep it to yourself, because speaking it out would only cause new harm.

I can only describe it in two words: frustrating.

This situation did not improve until several days later.

Because on this day, Jiang Shu did not appear near the anti-magic stone like a NPC that would spawn regularly.

News came from the radish and cabbage side.

She had already arranged everything for Jiang Shu.

Chapter 117 Even the Emperor Loves This Authentic Flavor

Jiang Shu had no idea how Luobo Baicai had managed to seduce one of the red-robed members of the Temple of Lies.

In fact, he didn't intend to ask.

However, it seems that he wanted to take credit and prove to Jiang Shu how difficult it was for him.

The radish and cabbage themselves recounted the entire process in great detail.

First, there was the purple-robed man she had mentioned before, who was currently being connected with someone. The reason she chose him as the purple-robed man's first target was because of his special identity.

He was actually a distant cousin of a red-robed figure in the temple, and was related to the red-robed figure by blood.

So even if Jiang Shu didn't say it, Luo Bo Bai Cai (a nickname for a person) actually had Hong Pao (a type of traditional Chinese medicine) as their target.

Those who could become purple-robed were essentially on par with the ministers of the royal court, and were undoubtedly capable. Yet, even so, he was still completely outmaneuvered by those who were merely white-robed.

There's no way around it; she's too good at using her advantages and knows how to cultivate herself so that men who want her feel that she's different from others and that what they should do is pursue her, not forcibly possess her.

Moreover, she is very good at keeping people in suspense.

Her aloofness and unpredictable behavior quickly took over the entire life of the man in purple robes.

So when Radish and Cabbage seemed to tacitly approve of his pursuit and accepted his dinner invitation, he couldn't wait to introduce her to many relatives and friends in Lies Town the next day.

It's like asserting sovereignty.

This also included his distant cousin, the one in the red robe.

The next day, he had a new aunt-in-law.

Clearly, his distant cousin did not see this as a declaration of sovereignty, but rather as a kind of gift. If an ordinary person had given him a gift, he would have refused it, but since the other party was his cousin, he had no choice but to accept it.

The purple-robed man dared not speak out in anger, but there was nothing he could do. Everything he had in the Temple of Lies was given to him by the red-robed man, and his achievements today were inextricably linked to the other party.

He could clearly distinguish between the importance of women and career.

But the red-robed man was treated differently.

She became very enthusiastic and proactive, constantly expressing her admiration for the other person.

In addition, she always manages to please the other party through small details, understands their intentions, and soothes the negative emotions that the other party has accumulated due to their long-term high position.

Soon, the man in the red robe felt that Radish and Cabbage was not just a lover, but even that she was his confidante and a person he could not miss in his life.

So when the other party learned that the Liar Poet, who had recently become famous in the temple and successfully joined the temple by passing the blue robe test, was her fellow townsman and also admired her and wanted to meet her, she naturally agreed without hesitation.

After listening to Radish and Cabbage's story, Jiang Shu couldn't help but feel curious.

"Are you sure that man in purple robes won't think, 'A true man is born between heaven and earth; how can he remain subservient to others for long?'"

"That boil is different from Lu Bu's."

Radishes and cabbages disagreed:

"He is not as brave as that man in red robes, nor as cunning as him. What else can he do but live a life of melancholy and subservience?"

And even if he does something, it has nothing to do with us, right?

"Too."

"In short, the time and place are all arranged. I've even prepared what to have for dinner and paid for it. All you have to do is go there."

Radish and cabbage, like Jiang Shu's secretary, carefully explained:

"It's easier to get things done at the dinner table when you're discussing serious matters. That old man isn't a big drinker, so you can get him a few drinks, flatter him, and show him your sincerity in wanting to join his cause. You can easily find out anything you want."

I've already laid the groundwork for you on this, so it won't be too difficult.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shu nodded: "Indeed thoughtful."

"Aren't you going to praise me for being so thoughtful?" Radish and Cabbage winked at Jiang Shu.

Jiang Shu smiled slightly: "Are you addicted? Are you using me as a target for your seduction?"
