Temple officials held a press conference on the 14th to deny it, accusing the photographer of “shooting without consent” and post-dubbing, distorting the facts. However, in the evening, there was an obvious slap sound in another video from another perspective. Li Jinyu, a lawyer appointed by Taixuan Palace, still pointed out that “it was shot arbitrarily without the consent of the temple.”
Marshal Molong Zhongtan of Taixuan Palace, the head of Taixuan Palace, went up and down, and a shaman slapped a female believer, which attracted the attention of the outside world.

Some people said: “This sound effect is so realistic”, “If you sue, you will go to court or go to heaven”, “It is the first time I have seen a ghost that can tie a headband on its own”, “I am curious about know who will go to court when the time comes. Is he still the prince?” Some people even said, “It’s okay, one is willing to be beaten and the other is willing to suffer. There’s nothing wrong with that. The victim can still come out to clarify, it’s all their problem.” the person who was hit came out and said it was a misunderstanding.
Li Jinxuan, a lawyer appointed by Taixuan Palace, said that both the ghost and the injured practitioners had come forward to explain that there was no injury problem that day. The ghost’s body was taken by the prince that day, and he was in an unconscious state, and the student surnamed Song did not file a damage report. As regards the possible alteration of the video, an appraisal will also be carried out, it is not excluded that it is possible to trace the source of the video and sue the leaker.
He said the photographer “took pictures without the consent of the temple”, spread it on the Internet without permission or consent, and was suspected of profiting from it. The key point is “get approved”: the photographer can use the lucrative behavior of the video to earn click through rates and even advertising benefits. For-profit behavior is not only click-through rate, but also promotional marketing of the video uploader.
