Chapter 1458
In this place created by the quasi-saint, these things are absolutely forbidden. You have to know that the quasi-saint is a great human being, how can he tolerate these things.
If this really happens, his dream will not even have the slightest hope of success.
Besides, Gu Zheng has asked Ren Jie and the others. Under normal circumstances, humans in the monsters' place, or monsters captured by humans, at most suffer a little more, get tired, and do some work.
Under normal circumstances, they will not even abuse them. If something goes wrong, they will die. If there are disobedient captives, they will naturally have ways to deal with them.
So Gu Zheng's first reaction was not to believe it.
But looking at the panic-stricken look of a group of people, if it were not the case, they would not have risked such a great danger to escape.
No matter what, he had to protect them and wait until the development of the situation.
"I know, you guys take a rest here now, I'm going to verify it, before that I will protect you here." Gu Zheng comforted them a little and flew towards the monsters on the opposite side.
These humans had been chased for a day and a night, and were exhausted. If they hadn't held on for a breath, they would have been unable to bear it. After hearing Gu Zheng's words, they rested on the ground.
With an ancestor god protecting them, at least their safety was protected.
"Which tribe are you from, and why are you chasing them?" Gu Zheng stopped in front of them and asked the somewhat panicked monster inside.
"We are from Dongyan Village. May I ask this ancestor god, why are you preventing us from capturing these fugitives?" A captain who was suspected to be their action squeezed in from the back and said neither servilely nor arrogantly.
"Capture fugitives? What's wrong with the other party that requires you to act like this? I think many people have died!" Gu Zheng looked at the monster in front of him and said as if he didn't know.
These monsters have a layer of fine scales with a green glow on their heads, but they don't know what kind of monster they are.
"Some time ago, the other party took advantage of the lack of people to kill our companions. Some of us saw it with our own eyes. Several of them have died. When we were about to take them down and send them to Dongtu City, they got the news in advance and took the opportunity to escape. We chased them. Some of them resisted, so we killed them on the spot for safety." The captain of the demon just left and explained in detail.
He knew that their behavior at this time was very misleading. After all, from the top, they were arresting humans, especially the other party was a human ancestor god.
"So that's it!" Gu Zheng suddenly realized, but in his heart he wondered why the two people's statements were inconsistent. He could see that neither side was lying.
"Don't you have any doubts when you see them running away?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"That's just that the other party's strength is not enough to resist us. The other party deserves it. If it weren't for the regulations, we would have killed them on the road before. Why tie them up and take them back for a confrontation?" The captain said with some murderous intent, and then requested.
"Please let us go, Lord Ancestor God. When we catch the other party, we will know the cause of the matter after a confrontation."
After thinking about these words, Gu Zheng realized that both of them were right and neither of them lied. In this case, it would be better to let the two sides confront each other to find out the cause of the matter.
Gu Zheng always felt that something was wrong. How could there be a sudden occurrence of monsters eating humans and humans killing monsters? It seemed that there was a black hand behind the scenes pushing them.
"Well, I will let you confront each other now. Neither of you lied, so I can't judge." Gu Zheng pondered for a while before saying this.
"It's all up to Lord Ancestor God." The captain of the monsters also said respectfully, because he knew that at this time, he could not make the decision.
Gu Zheng looked at this sensible monster, nodded secretly and said nothing. He turned around and came to the human side and said the same thing.
Of course the humans here agreed, because they didn't lie in the first place, and they were not afraid of the other party at all. Besides, with Gu Zheng's existence, they were not afraid that the other party would jump over the wall and hurt themselves.
Gu Zheng immediately untied the restraints of both sides, but in order to prevent both sides from being a little irrational, he still erected a golden transparent barrier in the middle of them to separate the two sides.
The two sides quickly came to the middle concave ground and looked at each other. The atmosphere was a little solemn. It was a little empty here, so they were not so crowded.
"Let me first say that on the first day, we came back as usual and found that our companions disappeared for no reason. Generally, after we left, those monsters would leave a few people. Maybe at that time, they took the opportunity to catch him and eat him." A man from the human side came out and said with some grief and anger. It seemed that the first missing person had a close relationship with him.
"You are even more joking. Three months ago, all monsters had to come back. They came back as soon as you left. Although we were not there, we were the ones responsible for counting the number of people. This was the order of the ancestor god." The captain of the monster here retorted.
"Why didn't you tell us that one of our patrol companions disappeared for no reason while patrolling alone?"
"Did it happen on the third day?"
Both sides began to accuse each other, but Gu Zheng frowned as he listened, because he had discovered some suspicious points.
Seeing that the humans were getting more and more excited, Gu Zheng had to ask them to calm down and interrupt their conversation.
"Stop it first. It seems you both think it's the other person and you've seen it with your own eyes, right?"
Both sides nodded unanimously, agreeing with Gu Zheng's point of view.
"Then here's the question. I won't talk about distance. I'll just say that when you saw each other dragging your people away and eating them, all of you were on the other side. Your ancestors were concentrating on training your physical body against each other. Right?" Gu Zheng said to the human first, and then asked the demon.
"right!"
"First of all, when you saw the other party eating a person, you said it was in a hidden corner with the demon devouring it. But that person had no cultivation at all. How could he have deceived the other party's vigilance? Besides, the other party was really so hungry and unscrupulous. Knowing that this is the other party's home, isn't it a coincidence that instead of secretly hiding at home, he went out specifically for you to see?" Gu Zhengxian said to the human side.
"And you, when your team members were killed by the other party, weren't your ancestors in the clan? Even if the other party made a sneak attack, it was impossible to make any noise. Could it be that he was not alert at all, or did you report it after seeing it? I know, this is obviously very suspicious. I am a person in the Golden Immortal stage. If I don’t know about this, I might as well die. "
Gu Zheng said towards the demon, with a sneer on his face. They didn't even think of such an obvious flaw. It seemed that they had been blinded unknowingly and would subconsciously ignore this problem.
Hearing what Gu Zheng said, the confusion in their heads completely disappeared, and then they seemed to suddenly realize, and they all understood. There was more than this doubt. It seemed that someone was confusing them and making them do this deliberately. They were being manipulated by others. Take advantage of.
But who would do this?
Both humans and monsters were confused as to who was causing trouble, and even their ancestors were confused.
Especially on the human side, they are even more angry. You must know that they have lost many relatives, and in the end, it was not the demon who killed them, but someone else, because they were also used by others.
Subconsciously, both demons and humans turned their attention to Gu Zheng, as if he had some way of knowing.
"I don't know who framed you. I just thought your actions were a little strange, so I came down to ask. I didn't expect you to have such a misunderstanding." Gu Zheng was also a little confused about whether to laugh or cry, and quickly explained.
They also lowered their heads in disappointment, wondering how they would know who it was when Gu Zheng appeared.
"It would be best if this is the case, because we don't want to escape." The old woman here said at the front.
"But you still can't go back at this time, otherwise the mastermind behind the scenes may be waiting for us to take you back. Then your crimes will be serious. You must know that you are now waiting for the crime. Only by finding the mastermind behind the scenes can you Clear your names." Instead, the demon clan here spoke for them and told them not to come back for the time being.
If it weren't for such a thing, their relationship wouldn't be so bad.
At this moment, a figure in the distant sky flew towards this side at high speed. After seeing the situation here, he immediately shouted.
"Get out of here quickly."
As soon as she finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared behind her and slapped her behind, hitting her vest.
The woman who reminded Gu Zheng and them immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and hit the mountain peak not far away from Gu Zheng like a meteor, smashing out a big hole and making the whole ground tremble.
"Haha, nosy people, this is the price for you, you don't know whether to live or die." The figure above shouted a little wildly.
"It's Lord Ancestral God!" Any demons below started to stir up, looking at the top and kept saying.
It turned out to be their ancestor god. Gu Zheng's expression condensed, but he did not go out. Instead, he hid the aura on his body, and even the golden light was quietly hidden.
"You losers, what are you doing? Get these people back quickly, how dare you run away." The ancestor god above saw the scene below and shouted to the demon captain.
"Lord Ancestor God, there is a misunderstanding here, please allow me to speak up." The demon captain here shouted to the top.
"Hmph, if there is any misunderstanding, let's talk about it later. Now I order you to arrest them." The ancestor god above waved his hand impatiently, not listening to what his mother said.
"Lord Ancestor God." The demon captain here wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by his superiors.
"It seems that you have objections. I know that you are unreliable and have betrayed the village. However, I have ordered the soldiers behind to come over. After a while, you will not be able to escape." Their ancestors did not explain to them at all, and waved their hands. A black ray of light formed a continuous barrier at the mountains in front, so that they could not escape at all.
"Ahem, you guys get out of here quickly. He has been controlled by evil spirits. Your ancestor god no longer exists, it's just his body." A figure suddenly emerged from the hole just now, stopped in mid-air, and said to shouted at them.
A woman in a purple dress was dressed in purple from top to bottom, and even her waist-length hair was purple. At this time, a trace of blood was flowing out from the corner of her mouth. The anxious look on her face made everyone think that she was talking. is the truth.
"You still have the energy to show up. Why don't you run away and pretend to be a good guy? Go to hell!" The ancestor god of Dongyan Village snorted coldly, and his figure flashed quickly, and he appeared above the purple woman. A huge club appeared in her hand and smashed down at her.
At the critical moment, a purple diamond-shaped shield appeared above the woman, blocking the opponent's fierce attack, but her figure was smashed into the ground again and disappeared.
"Our ancestor god's name is Songhu, and his body is a python. Please pay more attention." The demon leader here struggled in his eyes, but when he thought of the woman's shouting, he finally became clear.
Since the ancestor god came back, everything seemed different from before. It felt that the ancestor god's temperament had changed from beginning to end. You know, these elites are all snake-foot tribes, and they have been with the ancestor god for a long time. In the past, they could be said to be treated like the ancestor god's family.
But now everything is a little different, and you can feel the changes in it, as if he has become a different person. It seems that what the woman said is right. I'm afraid that their ancestor god has been occupied by someone.
Otherwise, how could such a thing happen soon after they came back, and they often gathered together? I'm afraid there must be some mystery in it, but he didn't know what was going on.
Gu Zheng nodded, accepted the other party's kindness, and whispered to them.
"Wait a minute, stay away, be careful not to be affected."
After saying that, he no longer hid his figure, and rushed towards Song Hu who was falling at a high speed. He wanted to take advantage of the situation to chase and kill the woman who disturbed him completely.
There was a light "bang".
The two people fought in the air for a moment, and then separated.
"Where did you come from, the ancestor god? I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. Be careful that your end will be the same as that woman." Song Hu looked at Gu Zheng, whose aura was not inferior to his, and threatened Gu Zheng.
"You actually attacked other ancestor gods for no reason. Do you know that you broke the rules?" Gu Zheng ignored the other party's threat and questioned him instead.
Although the woman said that Song Hu had been replaced by someone, Gu Zheng couldn't believe the other party's one-sided words.
"Haha, how is it possible? I am the main god of Dongyan Village, and this woman is the black hand that caused all this. Otherwise, I deliberately let these humans escape, how could I lead her out?" Songhu heard Gu Zheng's question, but laughed and said to Gu Zheng.
"Is it true?" Gu Zheng looked at the human and Songhu below repeatedly, but he couldn't see whether Songhu was occupied by someone else.
"Nonsense, fellow Taoist, although I don't know what the other party uses, but the other party is obviously a demon, obviously likes dark things, and also hates those opposite things. Fellow Taoist, you will know after trying."
At this time, the woman below rushed out of the buried cave, and heard Songhu say so, and quickly refuted.
Hearing this, Gu Zheng also looked at Songhu, not knowing how the other party would answer him.
"You are quite talkative. We snakes like dark places. This is the nature of the race and cannot be avoided at all." Songhu answered while looking at Gu Zheng.
This change made Gu Zheng really unable to distinguish. After all, what he said was not without reason, but he did not need to distinguish it, and he said it directly.
"In this case, why don't we go to the deacon, then the deacon will definitely be able to tell who is right and who is wrong."
"Good idea, but I'm afraid the other party will not go with you." The woman below took out a pill and swallowed it. After hearing all kinds of words, she immediately agreed.
"Not a bad idea, but I want to take my soldiers and prisoners away. Damn it when I go back. What are you doing!" After Song Hu relaxed his vigilance a little, a golden light suddenly bloomed from Gu Zheng's head, emitting thousands of feet of light around like the sun.
The whole world was illuminated by the sudden light, but this light did not have any lethality. Gu Zheng was observing the two people at the same time as the light appeared.
Because the incident happened suddenly, both of them thought that Gu Zheng really wanted to go to the deacon, so they were not prepared at all, and were instantly illuminated by the light.
The purple woman below subconsciously raised her palm to block her eyes to resist the dazzling light.
Songhu was talking and was not prepared. A puff of black smoke appeared outside his body in an instant, and then a black shield rose up to block the light outside.
However, Gu Zheng was sure that Songhu was indeed tricky. You have to know that the other party was a demon in the Golden Immortal period. He used his habits to fool himself. Did he think his IQ was not online?
The black air gave Gu Zheng a familiar feeling. Although he didn't know what it was, it was obviously not a normal thing.
His light was mixed with a trace of fire, which was effective against those demons and ghosts. The power was almost non-existent. The other party's initial reaction was so big that it was needless to say that he was the one who lied.
"Who on earth are you? You dare to invade other people's bodies. You are so bold!" Gu Zheng shouted at the other party.
"Hehe, since you've discovered me, then blame me for not giving you a chance. When you die, don't forget to remind yourself that it's your meddling that caused this." The expression on Song Hu's face slowly condensed. He pointed to the sky, and a huge black cloud suddenly appeared in the air. Then it turned into wisps of gray mist and fell downwards, disappearing without a trace in mid-air.
The eyes, which were originally somewhat dark, now became more sinister, with wisps of gray air flickering in them, which was indescribably strange.
The aura of the whole person suddenly changed, as if he had been discovered by Gu Zheng and was not hiding in front of them. As for the humans and monsters below, they had all fainted before.
Gu Zheng sneered and did not answer. From this point of view, the cannibalism was caused by the other party, and Gu Zheng also understood why these people were sent to hunt down humans.
Those dead humans can be completely blamed on these monsters, and he can also get human corpses from them. As for the missing people, of course, they can be blamed on these guards who are most familiar with the original Songhu. He can also solve the problem of killing relatives for the sake of justice and completely hide his figure.
In addition, the outside world does not know all this, as long as the village conceals it.
If it weren't for Gu Zheng's sudden appearance, even this woman would die tragically here. It was really a perfect plan!
