Chapter 952 Who Eats Chicken?

night.

The gates of the Holy City rumbled open.

Knights in mighty armor sat on armored horses, armed with weapons, and stepped out of the gate in a uniform manner.

The team of magicians and magicians accompanying the army sat in the carriage, protected by the knight team in the middle of the team.

After decades, the cavalry of the Holy Church gathered again.

Under the command of the gods, they will go to the southern empire to deal with everything that may happen there.

This scene shocked the whole world.

The forces of all parties are inquiring about what happened.

But the church didn't have time to explain to them, they could only say——

The gods demand that the Holy Army arrive at the Southern Empire as soon as possible!

The pope took the cardinals and more than a hundred of the most elite members of the Holy See to go ahead.

They spent expensive resources to teleport directly to the Southern Empire, outside that remote town.

The monarch of the Southern Empire immediately blocked that remote town in accordance with the requirements of the gods.

Everything remains as it is, waiting for people from the Holy Church to come and investigate.

Those merchants who had just left the town were brought under control.

Including the child who escaped the catastrophe because of herding sheep on the mountain, is also being detained at the moment.

"Your Majesty the Pope, do you think there is anything wrong with what I did?"

asked the king.

He looked a little nervous.

As a monarch, he is indeed a shrewd and capable hero, and it is easy to guess something when he thinks about it.

——This is the first time in decades that the gods have intervened in the world.

In addition, when the church established an intelligence agency, there was such a saying.

It is said that the gods ordered the establishment of intelligence agencies around the world in order to detect the signs of the world's destruction.

Is the source of destruction here?

Thinking of this incident, the king of the southern empire felt deeply disturbed.

The pope gave the monarch of the southern empire a consoling look and said, "You have done a good job. I think even if I preside over it myself, I can't do better than you."

The southern monarch breathed a sigh of relief.

He was about to speak, but was stopped by the Pope raising his hand.

The pope seemed to be listening.

It took a while for the pope to show a strange expression.

"Your Majesty, please hand over those survivors to our guards," the Pope said.

"No problem." The southern monarch said happily.

After the pope pointed to the two cardinals, he ordered them to lead their hands to receive these personnel.

"Remember, all of you, you must be vigilant that there are demons hiding among these people. They must be stripped of their weapons, and an exorcism barrier must be set up around them. They talk."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The two cardinals saluted.

They went quickly with two teams of knights.

The Pope ordered to the rest of the people: "Everyone, enter the town and start searching for suspicious information, pay attention to collecting the bones, check against the town roster, and don't miss anyone."

"yes!"

The remaining cardinals and holy knights echoed.

The search lasted for two full days.

People from the church arrived one after another.

At the request of the church, various forces sent all the experts in the search here.

In the face of the power of the entire Holy Church, as well as the cooperation of the Southern Empire and various forces, the entire town was searched like three feet away.

In order to check the personnel and bones, those holy knights, hunters, and warriors have carried out detailed research on every bone.

In order to determine the cause of death of every animal in the town, the priests even used magic.

There is no escape from anything suspicious.

When Gu Qingshan arrived outside the town, a complete and accurate information had already been sent to him.

This is the power he has acquired over the years——

and the result.

He sat on the throne and carefully checked the information.

"All poultry are sacrificed to evil, except one chicken."

"The chicken was found in a remote location and had been eaten with only bones left, and there were traces of human chewing on the bones."

"Through investigation, the chicken was just roasted when the entire town died."

"As for the population, there was a problem when the population of the town was checked with the corpse."

"Several people disappeared for no reason."

"None of the people who knew them in other areas had ever seen these missing people."

"The only thing that is certain is that these people should also be in the small town when the incident happened."

"All forces in the world have been mobilized and are trying their best to find the traces of these people."

After reading it, Gu Qingshan thought for a while.

In the room, the pope, the monarch of the southern empire, and the cardinals all breathed lightly, for fear of disturbing the thinking of the gods.

"Where are the merchants and children?" Gu Qingshan asked.

"According to your order, they were detained in a temporary camp. We have sent heavy troops to guard them. If there is any change, we will kill them with all our strength as soon as possible." The pope said.

"Have they eaten anything?" Gu Qingshan continued to ask.

"No." The pope said.

Gu Qingshan ordered: "Bring those few survivors up, I'll take a look at them."

"yes."

soon.

Those few people were brought in front of Gu Qingshan.

Gu Qingshan glanced at it.

The few country merchants didn't know his identity, seeing him surrounded by everyone, they knew that he must be a very important person.

They prostrated themselves on the ground, begging for mercy.

That child was a little ignorant until he saw the merchants begging for mercy, so he begged for mercy too.

"Is there any problem with their identities?" Gu Qingshan asked.

"Yes, we have jointly investigated with the Southern Empire. They are indeed local merchants in the countryside. From birth to family formation, whereabouts over the years, records of goods sales, tax payment, etc., there is no problem." The pope said.

"Where is that child?"

"There is no problem, it is indeed a local."

Gu Qingshan looked at those people, and suddenly asked strangely: "Why do they look very hungry?"

The Pope thought in his heart that this is not exactly what you ordered, why are you asking now—wait a minute, did the gods do this on purpose?

The Pope made a solemn expression and replied: "Because these people survived the sacrifice, I was worried about unpredictable problems, so I have not given them food."

"It's been two days, how can I bear this." Gu Qingshan sighed.

He said to his side: "Go, give them some of our dinner."

"yes."

The knight beside him stepped out.

A few minutes later.

The knight came in with a large bowl of steaming noodles, and distributed the tableware to these people.

"Eat, I will send someone to send you back to your home after eating. You are all lucky people who escaped this disaster."

Gu Qingshan said in a tone full of pity.

When these people heard this, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

They hadn't eaten for two days and two nights. When they got the news of their release, they felt relieved and couldn't help but share the bowl of noodles.

The child looked at it and found that all the merchants had gone to share the noodles and ate them, but he was the only one who stood there stupidly.

At this time, the surrounding knight priests gradually looked towards him.

The child quickly followed and shared a bowl of noodles to eat.

It smells so good!

Whoever made this noodle must be a top cook.

The child ate it in one bite, and this thought came to his mind.

After all, I was young, and I was really hungry for two days and two nights. At this time, I couldn't help it anymore, and started to eat voraciously.

Just as they were eating vigorously, a voice suddenly sounded:

"When all the people in the town died, which one of you ate that chicken?"

The merchants and the children turned their heads and saw that the person who asked the question was the knight standing beside Gu Qingshan.

Everyone around them looked at them without saying a word.

They then knew they had to answer the question.

"I did not eat."

"not me."

"We had left town by then."

"Didn't eat."

"I'm on the mountain."

They all replied.

For some reason, they suddenly found that the atmosphere in the room became tense again.

A chilling intent emanated from the members of the Holy See.

But all the core members of the Holy Church lowered their heads, looking at them, they seemed to be in a certain state of piety.

At this time, Gu Qingshan spoke.

"Which one of you ate that chicken when all the people in the town died?" he asked.

This is very strange.

It had already been asked just now, but now the big man asked the same question again himself.

But the merchants dare not not answer.

"I did not eat."

"not me."

"We had left town by then."

"Didn't eat."

"I'm on the mountain."

They repeated it.

Gu Qingshan nodded.

There was no sound all around, and everyone kept silent.

At this time, the child suddenly looked bewildered, and opened his mouth and said:

"I ate it."
