"Where is Your Highness?" Xie Zhi asked as soon as he entered the door.

"Catch the shade in □□, I will take you there." The concierge of the Prince's Mansion responded.

"Thank you."

In a pavilion facing the rockery and flowing water, Yang Dejin sat with his back to Xie Zhi.

Yang Dejin is dressed in white summer clothes today, her hair is **** in a high ponytail with grosgrain rolled with gold thread, thin bangs are brushed on her forehead, and the back of her ears and neck are all exposed to the air, showing the casual nature of modern people.

"Your Highness."

"Oh, Xie Zhirui, you came just in time." Seeing her coming, Yang Dejin flew out the brochure in his hand.

"This is?" Xie Zhi responded quickly.

"The list of church believers, the part circled in red is the official."

Xie Zhi opened it and took a rough look: "There are quite a few, what is His Highness going to do with it?"

"Do nothing."

"Your Highness wants to let them go?"

"Oh, how is it possible." Yang Dejin smiled, "Wouldn't it be better to keep it as a handle for vigilance?"

Xie Zhi nodded approvingly, "Your Highness is right."

Yang Dejin waved and asked Hou's maid not far away to fetch the iced sour plum soup.

"But I have a question."

"Why is your Highness puzzled?"

Yang Dejin took the roster again, and searched over and over again: "The Queen's faction is basically in it, but why is there no Liang Jing?"

Xie Zhi understood, it turned out that Liang Jing's name was not among them.

"Liang Xiang is in a high position, and there are so many well-known officials under him, it is impossible for him not to know."

After all, he was the one who took the lead in attacking Bai Qingyang in Hanyuan Hall.

"As for why that person is not a believer..." Xie Zhi paused, "Maybe it's because he's picky."

Yang Dejin: "Ah..." That person Liang Jing really...

He is the number one corrupt official who pockets his own money in the original work, and he is a typical miser. The cost of joining the Dacheng Sect is so high, he may not use the money to waste money.

Ok…

Then he was still taking the lead in dancing face-to-face in the early morning, so he had nothing to do when he was full? ? !

Yang Dejin's aphasia: I'm sick.

"Ha—" Yang Dejin shook her head and stretched, "This matter is over."

"The high priest has not been found yet."

Yang Dejin paused for a moment, then remembered: "Oh, there's another thing to do!"

Xie Zhi: "The Dachengjiao case belongs to Dali Temple. I don't want to intervene too much in the follow-up of the case. The identity of the high priest has not been found out. He probably left early. The identities of the leaders are a group of tomb robbers."

"Tomb robber?" Yang Dejin repeated, "How dare you rob the emperor's tomb?"

"The imperial tomb was not stolen, and I don't know how they discovered the secret passage of the imperial tomb, and they were able to avoid the tomb guards and take the underground palace as their own. If so, they could not escape death."

"That's it, then do you know why they want to form an association illegally and spread rumors to make trouble?"

Xie Zhi shook his head: "I don't know about it. I suspect someone instructed me. Anyway, I have bad intentions."

Seeing that she was frowning again, Yang Dejin quickly said, "Hey, don't worry, no matter what these people's plans are, their calculations have already come to nothing.

"Even if the high priest wants to make a comeback, he probably won't be able to make waves.

"The rumors have been broken, isn't this what we want?"

"Yeah... yes." Xie Zhi figured it out, "Thanks to Your Highness."

"Hey, how can it be? It's not because Mr. Xie is resourceful."

Xie Zhi smiled sincerely, took out the Prince's Order from his bosom, and handed it back to Yang Dejin: "Return this to Your Highness."

Yang Dejin took it: "Oh, I'll forget it if I don't say it."

"Without this, I can't enter the underground palace, and I can't mobilize His Highness's private soldiers." Without the prince's order, she might not be able to solve the case.

"Things are dead, but people are alive." Yang Dejin shook his head and said, "Only people's conscious behavior can change the world."

Xie Zhi raised his eyebrows: "I didn't expect His Highness to understand such a profound truth. Is it because of His Highness's conscious behavior that he incited the church to rebel?"

"that…"

That is nothing more than a big gamble based on the information in hand and the faith of the believers.

Yang Dejin asked: "Does Zhirui know the rule of three?"

Xie Zhi shook his head.

"Then let me explain to you," Yang Dejin continued, "When facing the same situation, one person can only adapt to his environment; but if there are three people, they can have the power to change the environment."

After the servant brought up the sour plum soup, he withdrew again.

"For example, in a village hijacked by bandits, as long as three people stand up to resist at the same time, other villagers will also be mobilized to fight against bandits."

Xie Zhi said thoughtfully, "So you took the lead and exposed the deceit of Dacheng Sect. At the same time, you asked Pei Yu and Kuai Gang to pretend to be believers, spread unfavorable news among the people, and incite their suspicion."

Yang Dejin: "In the end, Mr. Xie, you will find out the child who cooperates with the church's acting, and expose it to everyone. The believers will ask for a hammer, and the public opinion will naturally fall to my side."

In fact, these believers may not believe in the church very much, but no one is willing to stand up and be that special early bird.

To put it bluntly, it was still the emperor's new clothes, no one was willing to be the first to admit that they couldn't see the clothes.

"Thanks to the three of you, otherwise we wouldn't be able to handle the church." Yang Dejin said while holding sour plum soup.

Xie Zhi was noncommittal. In her opinion, without Yang Dejin's idea, they alone would not be able to destroy the church.

"By the way," Xie Zhi suddenly thought, "The holy soup in the church is fake, what about the water erosion that swallows people?" She saw that person sink with her own eyes.

"Oh, that." Yang Dejin also remembered, "I wanted to tell you before, why don't we go to Wuming Temple again?"

Xie Zhi: "The pond of Wuming Temple has been filled."

"Fill it? Ah—it's probably hardened."

"What's the meaning?"

Yang Dejin got up: "Oh, I don't know, you will find out if you come with me. Let's go!" After speaking, he pulled Xie Zhi's wrist.

"Hey, wait..."

Yang Dejin yelled into the yard: "Achong, lead two horses, I will go out with Mr. Xie."

"okay!"

The two of them drove their horses all the way to the Wuming Temple outside the city. It was still as deserted as before, as if the gathering a few days ago was a dream.

Yang Dejin climbed off the horse tremblingly, riding this thing was really bumpy, and his legs were a little weak when he got off.

Yang Dejin thought that he should practice horse riding more, and he couldn't let others look down upon him.

Xie Zhi also jumped off his horse and walked inside the Temple of No Name. Several people accompanying them stood outside the watch, leading their horses.

There was not a single drop of water in the pond, as if it had been filled with some kind of silt, the surface was very smooth, but under the scorching sun, there were several cracks. Yang Dejin walked in, squatted down, and twisted the crack with his hands.

"it is as expected."

Sand and clay mixture.

Xie Zhi looked at her: "Why, isn't this pond filled?"

Yang Dejin patted the powder on his hands, looked up and said, "Since we first saw this pond, it has been filled with this thing. It's just that it's dried and hardened now, and I'll restore it to you later. look."

Xie Zhi frowned and said nothing, wondering what kind of medicine Yang Dejin sold in the gourd.

"My lord, here comes the water." Yinniang ran in from outside carrying a bucket.

Yang Dejin got up and approached, and saw more than a dozen servants carrying water behind her, pointed to the pond and said, "Come on, pour it in, don't spill it."

A group of servants brought dozens of buckets of water back and forth from the river, and poured them all into the pond. The filler that was originally formed into lumps began to soften after the water was injected and melted into the water, and the entire pond gradually became turbid.

Seeing that the ratio was almost the same, Yang Dejin asked someone to carry a long stick that he didn't know where to stir it in the pool water.

"My lord, this is so difficult to stir up." Someone shouted.

The water-filled filling in the pool turned into a ooze-like object, mixed with a lot of fallen leaves and dust, and some visual pollution.

"Don't use so much force, you need to use skill, understand? Skill!" Yang Dejin waved his hand when he saw that the fusion was sufficient, "Okay, step back."

"Master Xie, do you want to go in and experience it?" Yang Dejin turned to Xie Zhi with malicious intent in his eyes.

Although Xie Zhi didn't know what was going on in the pond, she knew that Yang Dejin had no good intentions when she saw Yang Dejin's mischievous eyebrows.

"I won't go, will you tell me?" Xie Zhi replied blankly.

"Really indifferent." Yang Dejin pouted, "Then let me do it."

After speaking, Yang Dejin stood by the pond, raised his foot up and stomped hard, just like the cardinal stomped on it before.

But what is amazing is that the semi-fluid, which was originally like soft mud, became very hard under the impact of Yang Dejin's trampling, making a dull sound, just like kicking on the ground.

Xie Zhi's eyes widened, and it was here that she was puzzled: "Why?"

Yang Dejin: "Look good." After speaking, he jumped into the middle of the pond.

Standing in the center, she began to sink slowly, and the mud soon covered her waist.

"What are you doing? Come out!" Xie Zhi couldn't help shouting.

"Don't worry, this pool is not deep."

I saw that Yang Dejin had a lot of room to wriggle his body, and before his upper body sank in, he lay down on the surface of the soft mud, and then slowly but forcefully pulled his sunken feet up.

To walk on this material, you can only lower your center of gravity and climb out with hands and feet. Yang Dejin's white coat was full of dirt, and she still walked out in a relatively primitive way, which inevitably seemed a bit... stupid.

But seeing her crawling out safely... Xie Zhi was relieved, then frowned and looked back and forth between her body and the soft mud in the pool, almost drawing a question mark on his face.

Yang Dejin didn't play tricks anymore, and patiently explained: "When this kind of thing is standing still, it looks like a puddle of soft mud. Once it encounters an external force, it becomes as hard as a rock." dirty stuff.

"Wow, it's kind of disgusting."

But fortunately, this ooze is not as chaotic as the color of natural mud, and it doesn't have any disgusting smell, otherwise Yang Dejin would definitely have to throw himself into the water or Qujiang to rinse it vigorously.

Xie Zhi twirled a part of her clothes and pinched it, she asked: "Then what exactly is this?"

"Hmm..." Yang Dejin pinched her chin, thinking about how to explain it, "This thing is also a type of non-Newtonian fluid..."

Knowing that it was difficult for Xie Zhi to understand this, Yang Dejin gave an example: "Master Xie, have you ever seen quicksand?"

Xie Zhi: "Quicksand?"

Yang Dejin paused, Mr. Xie lives in the Central Plains, and has never seen quicksand, then—

"Do you know the swamp? The principle is the same. This thing is like a low-profile version of the swamp. People sink in it and sink slowly. From the perspective of others, it looks like being swallowed by a pond."

They moderns call this the shear thickening effect.

When she said this, Xie Zhi seemed to understand a little bit: "The swamp... so it's like this."

Yang Dejin smiled: "The thing they made is much inferior to the real swamp. The time at Wuming Temple was in the middle of the night, and the light was dim. I guess the church must have prepared this mud-sand mixture shortly before the regular meeting. "

Artificial low-profile non-Newtonian fluids are not as good as natural quicksand, and the internal structure of this mixture is very unstable.

When the cardinal lifted the cloth covering the pool, there was already a shallow layer of clear water on the surface of the pool, because the sand in the water had begun to settle. So even in the dim light of the fire, it still looks sparkling.

Xie Zhi listened earnestly, and nodded his head as if he was being educated: "Hmm...so you played with mud before to verify this technique?"

"Playing..." Yang Dejin choked.

So in the eyes of others, is she playing with mud?

"I said it was an experiment!" Yang Dejin continued to explain, "By mixing sand, clay and water in a certain proportion, this effect can be produced."

"Since the prisoners executed by the Dacheng Sect are entrusted to them, it is impossible for them to sink them into it." Yang Dejin turned to look at the pool with quicksand, and waved to the attendants, "Come here, put the Dig out the ooze."

Then she said to Xie Zhi: "The church sank into it before, the props used to deceive the world should still be inside."

As expected, within half an hour, the servants dug out a dummy made of straw, wrapped in old red clothes, and tied stones in the middle to increase the weight.

Using this to disguise as a living person can't be said to be perfect, it can only be said to be extremely clumsy. But in the dimly lit night, it was more than enough to fool those believers.

Xie Zhi sighed, "Your Highness, I admire you."

"Hey, I dare not take it." Yang Dejin replied very usefully, "Seeing is not enough to rely on. Sometimes what you see with your own eyes may not be the truth."

"What is the truth, you need to follow your heart to find it." Yang Dejin poked Xie Zhi's left chest with his index finger.

Xie Zhi was caught off guard, quickly took a step back, and subconsciously raised his hand to brush her paw away.

Yang Dejin stared at her fingers with some doubts. She didn't expect to doubt Xie Zhi, but when she saw that she reacted so strongly and dodged away, she immediately said angrily:

"Why are you so excited? What's wrong with poking you?!"

Xie Zhi, who can't reveal his identity yet: "No, it's nothing..."

It's harassment, and it's not good for her heart!
