"Please spare my life, Immortal!!"
This Snakeman was much weaker than Bai Suzhen and Little Green. It could be seen from his appearance that Bai Suzhen and Little Green were able to cultivate into human form, but this Snakeman was still half human, half snake. This was different from Zhao Ling 'er, who was born like this. As for this … it was purely because his transformation technique was not perfect.
Even Bai Suzhen, who had thousands of years of cultivation, would be frightened by Fangzheng, not to mention this Snakeman. He directly prostrated himself on the ground and learned the Japanese way of sitting on the ground. However, it was still a little off.
"Alright, get up. I have something to ask you."
Fangzheng was indeed curious about many things. For example, why did this demon couple want to kidnap women? In the game, Li Xiaoyao was wholeheartedly looking for Zhao Ling 'er. If he couldn't find her, he would kill her without hesitation. In the end, Fangzheng didn't understand why these demons wanted to capture so many young girls to serve him.
"Why did you capture so many young girls?"
"Reporting to the Supreme Immortal, we captured these people … to, to, to take care of our daughter …"
"What?"
Hearing this, everyone including Lin Tian Nan and Lin Yueru were dumbfounded.
"Your daughter is a demon right? How can you let humans take care of her?"
"Immortal, you may not know, but my wife and I met after transforming into human form. That was why my wife gave birth to a daughter. However, this daughter was born in human form. We didn't know how to raise her, so we had no choice but to find humans to help take care of her."
"So that's why …"
Hearing this, Fangzheng nodded. He was curious about how the marriage between a snake and a fox broke the reproductive isolation. After all, they only managed to do it after transforming into human form.
At this moment, Lin Tian Nan also asked.
"Are the girls you captured safe?"
"Safe! Safe! "
Hearing Lin Tian Nan's question, Snakeman hurriedly nodded.
"We only captured them to take care of the child, clean the house, and serve tea …"
"But you're demons."
At this time, Lin Yueru also joined in the fun.
"Don't you eat humans?"
"Miss, you're wrong!!"
Hearing this, Snakeman's expression turned solemn.
"My wife and I have never done anything that offends the heavens and reason. For demons like us who cultivate, eating human souls, flesh and blood can naturally increase our cultivation greatly. However, this method is too cruel and will definitely be punished by the heavens. After my wife and I attained the Dao, we ate clouds and drank dew every day. We have never eaten a human being! "
"Ugh …"
Lin Yueru was momentarily at a loss for words upon hearing Snakeman's reply. After all, in the hearts of ordinary people, demons were extremely ferocious and terrifying. Cannibalism was commonplace. Not to mention, the two demons had captured so many young girls. Lin Yueru had long assumed that they had eaten all the girls they had captured.
But now … this seemed a little unexpected.
"Take us in and have a look."
Fangzheng did not say much and directly gave the order. Snakeman hurriedly led Fangzheng and the others into his cave residence.
"What a surprise …"
Following them, Lin Yueru came to Zhao Ling'er and Ai Ge's side and quietly sighed with emotion.
"I thought demons were all ferocious guys …"
"This …"
Upon hearing Lin Yueru's sigh, Zhao Ling'er's expression was somewhat complicated and did not know what to say. On the other hand, Ai Ge narrowed her eyes and smiled.
"What's the matter? In my opinion, no matter if it's humans or demons, they are all the same. "
"How can humans and demons be the same?"
Hearing until here, Lin Yueru immediately retorted. However, Ai Ge was still unmoved.
"Is that so?"
"Yes, if it's humans, how can they do such a thing?"
"But along the way, Father and I have met bandits who abducted young girls. Although they were all burned to death by Father."
"This …"
Facing Ai Ge's answer, Lin Yueru did not know what to say for a moment. After all, she was the young lady of a large family and had not seen such things. What she usually saw was the side that was easier to accept. Of course, she had also heard rumors of bandits descending the mountains to plunder and rob villages. However, these were too distant for Lin Yueru and she did not feel much about it.
However, as the connection to the world's source, Ai Ge was obviously not as naive as Lin Yueru.
As they conversed, the group arrived at the cave dwelling with Snakeman. Snakeman didn't dare to harbor any ill intentions as he obediently called out his wife and daughter. Got to say, compared to Snakeman and the vixen, their daughter looked no different from a human. It was especially so with the pair of furry fox ears on her head and her large, blinking eyes. She looked rather adorable.
As for those young girls who had been captured, they also walked over, trembling in fear. Fangzheng and Lin Tiannan separately asked them a few questions and found out that the snake man and his wife were telling the truth. Although these young girls were captured, they were very afraid. However, the snake man and his wife did not hurt them. At most, they made them clean up, serve tea, and take care of the little girl named Su Mei.
Speaking of which, Fangzheng wanted to complain about why foxes always liked to give themselves the surname Su.
Don't you know how badly the last fox with the surname Su died?
After finding these young girls, everyone's task was considered to be half done. The only thing left was … how to deal with the snake man and his wife.
According to Lin Tiannan's opinion, demons were causing trouble in the world, so naturally they should be beheaded. According to what the snake man and his wife said, the people who came to the cave before had nothing to do with them. These people were killed by the snakes in the cave after entering the cave, and they didn't even touch a finger of theirs. However, this matter was still caused by them, so Lin Tiannan naturally did not want to let the snake man and his wife go.
However, Lin Yueru and Zhao Ling 'er stood up to plead for them. After all, this little girl was so cute. If she lost her parents, who knew what would happen to her. Both sides were arguing incessantly and could not come to a decision.
This is also a problem …
Looking at this scene, Fangzheng couldn't help but shake his head. He was clear about the problem. To put it bluntly, it was not without reason that humans hated demons. Although demons like Bai Suzhen and Little Qing could speak human language and transform into human form after cultivating, they still followed the law of nature. The law of the jungle, the law of the jungle, did not change their bestial nature.
Take Bai Suzhen for example. She did have a tragic ending, but to be honest, Bai Suzhen's tragedy was also related to her disregard of the rules of the human world.
Take the beginning, Bai Suzhen and Little Qing wanted to live in the human world, but they did not want to earn money. Instead, they wanted to steal from the government's treasury.
What a joke, how could the treasury be so casually stolen? If you rob a bank in the modern world, let's see if you dare to spend the money you stole. One must know that even Fangzheng did not mention which world's brazen bank robberies were done secretly. Otherwise, if they were to investigate, then he would not be able to do anything in that world. He could just play hide and seek all day.
It was precisely because the two of them had stolen the silver from the warehouse and then handed it over to Xu Xian that Xu Xian had to bear the crime of being exiled thousands of miles away. It was already a miracle that he hadn't been beheaded. Logically speaking, if Bai Suzhen and Little Qing abided by the rules of the human world, then they would not have caused such a ruckus.
Later on, Xu Xian was scared to death when he saw Bai Suzhen's true body. In order to save him, Bai Suzhen also went to the heavenly court alone to steal the immortal pill. After failing to steal and being discovered, she resorted to robbing.
Of course, this could be said to be Bai Suzhen's eagerness to save Xu Xian. Perhaps it could be forgiven, but what happened after that was different.
Xu Xian was elected as the head of the Three Sovereigns Ancestral Master Association, but because his family was poor, he had nothing to offer. In the end, Bai Suzhen actually had Little Qing steal four treasures from the Liang Household, which directly led to a series of tragedies.
From this, it could be seen that although Bai Suzhen was a good wife, she completely ignored the rules of the human world. She still had the mentality of a wild beast, that is, what I want is mine. This thing belongs to the capable one. From the beginning to the end, even when Xu Xian was exiled because of this, Bai Suzhen did not learn the slightest lesson. It should be known that she stole these treasures to display and use, not to secretly sell them for money. She never thought that there would be a day when she would be exposed, because in Bai Suzhen's mind, there was no such common sense.
This snake couple was also the same. Perhaps from their point of view, they were already giving face by capturing these young girls to take care of their own children. They did not have any sense of moral guilt when it came to snatching other people's children. After all, the jungle was a place where the strong preyed on the weak. Many times, hunters would even specifically choose to target the cubs.
Therefore, from the point of view of the demons, they were already giving face by capturing human cubs and not eating them. What exactly were you humans angry about?
It was completely incomprehensible.
This was also the reason why humans and demons were unable to communicate with each other.
"Divine Doctor Fang, what do you think?"
Lin Tian Nan and his daughter could not come to an agreement, so he had no choice but to ask Fangzheng. After all, he could see that these demons were afraid of Fangzheng, so only Fangzheng could make the decision.
"Hmm …"
Hearing Lin Tian Nan's question, Fangzheng pondered for a moment and then answered.
"Even though this couple has their reasons, it's definitely wrong to abduct innocent girls. Seeing that they didn't hurt the young ladies … How about this?"
Saying until here, Fangzheng looked at the demon couple.
"For those who are willing to leave, you have to give them some property as compensation and mental damage compensation. For those who are willing to stay, then you can't let them work for free. You have to give them a reward. Also, from now on, you cannot affect the lives of others. Remember, you have a daughter now. If you harm others, there is a possibility that you will be killed like today. When that time comes, think carefully about how sad it will be for your daughter to lose her parents … Are you willing to accept it? "
"We are willing! We are willing! "
Hearing Fangzheng's words, the snake couple hurriedly nodded in agreement. Although Lin Tian Nan did not agree, he did not say anything more.
But even so, he still disagreed with Fangzheng's suggestion.
"Doctor Fang, you are taking things for granted. These girls were captured and frightened here. How can they continue to stay here?"
"Haha."
However, facing Lin Tian Nan's words, Fangzheng only smiled.
"We will know when we continue to watch."
After that, most of the young girls chose to leave. But what surprised Lin Tian Nan was that there were actually three girls who chose to stay!
"Why do you want to stay here?"
Facing the three girls' choice, Lin Tian Nan was puzzled and couldn't help but ask. Facing Lin Tian Nan's question, the three girls looked at each other. Then, one of them stepped forward and said.
"Replying to Fort Master Lin, the three of us are orphans. Even if we leave the mountain, we have nowhere to go. Moreover, the landlords and rich merchants at the foot of the mountain have coveted us sisters for a long time. After we leave the mountain, we don't know what kind of fate we will face. Although life here is monotonous, it is peaceful and peaceful. Also … "
Speaking until here, she looked at the little girl who was hiding behind her parents. Feeling the girl's gaze, the little girl lifted her head and looked at her.
"I also can't let go of Miss …"
"This …"
Hearing until here, Lin Tian Nan was completely speechless. Fangzheng also nodded.
"It's good for them to stay here. You should teach them the rules of the human world. Otherwise, these two idiots will cause trouble again."
While speaking, Fangzheng curiously looked at Snakeman again.
"But … Have you been living here all this while? I heard from Fort Master Lin that there were no rumors of Snake Demons here before. "
"Replying to Sir, we actually came here from somewhere else."
At this point, Snakeman had a bitter look on his face.
"To be honest, my husband and I used to live in Jinhua. But a few years ago, a Greater Demon came to that place. That Greater Demon had the Water Spirit Pearl and could freeze blood into ice at will. My husband and I were no match for it, so we had to leave …"
"Oh, so that's how it is … Hmm? Wait. "
Hearing Snakeman's words, Fangzheng nodded. Then, he suddenly froze.
Water Spirit Pearl?!
