Zhu Minglang was very surprised.
Only then did he realize that Old Ge had most likely taken the initiative to approach him.
When he noticed that the mysterious ancient demon had entered this farming city, the mysterious ancient demon also noticed that a god was watching him.
As expected of the mysterious ancient demon that he thought to be the wisest.
The most dangerous place was the safest place.
This mysterious ancient demon first hid in Xuan Ge Holy Capital. It was indeed a little bold.
Secondly, it actually took the initiative to help him investigate the demon.
In fact, for a few moments, Zhu Minglang did not intend to let go of the suspicion of Old Ge. However, his acting was indeed perfect. He eliminated many of Zhu Minglang's doubts, especially that sentence, "I know everyone here."
Now that he thought about it, he actually did not know any of them.
He told him that the things about each farmer's family were made up on the spot. Before a face-to-face confrontation, his lies would not be exposed.
"Young, young …" Old Ge made a strange sound outside the door.
"You're quite good at acting. What's the matter with the farmer woman who made the tea? Is she in cahoots with you?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"That's not it. However, I suggested that she use the green rainwater to make tea for everyone to drink. After drinking it, it can bring good luck to everyone. Tsk tsk!" Old Ge said.
"Your brother's symptoms are caused by drinking the green rainwater. What kind of sorcery is this?" Zhu Minglang continued to ask.
"The green rainwater made tea is the water that dies of thirst. People who drink the green rainwater tea will always have a dry mouth and tongue. No matter how much they drink, it will be useless. They will drown in the water they drink. "Old Ge said evilly outside the door.
"But the green rainwater has been falling for so long. It has also seeped into some spring water and well water. I've also drunk a lot of good tea recently. Why don't I have this symptom? The other commoners also drank it. They also don't have this symptom. Your sorcery won't work." Zhu Minglang said.
"When the green rainwater touches the earth, it will be purified. Only pottery, bowls, and cups can catch the green rainwater falling from the sky. Only then will it take effect." Old Ge said.
"So particular."
"That's right. That's why it's not easy to bewitch people to drink the Green Rain Tea. That greedy old woman helped me a lot. Don't you like to be chivalrous? There are so many farmers in this field who have drunk the Green Rain Tea. The Curse of Thirst will completely break out tonight. Now that you are trapped here, how are you going to save them? " It was as if Old Man Ge was giving Zhu Minglang a difficult problem and asking him to solve it. It was more like he was toying with Zhu Minglang, trying to toy with this demon slayer Itinerant Immortal until he had a nervous breakdown!
"I'm just trying my best. If I really can't save him, I can't do anything about it. Have you heard of this saying before? Don't worry. If they really can't do anything, I won't feel too guilty. "Zhu Minglang spoke his mind.
During the day, Zhu Minglang had already told the farmers that there were demons nearby and that they should go home and rest.
They didn't listen and continued to work in the fields. When they were thirsty, they drank the evil water of the greedy old woman who brewed the tea …
If they died because of this, Zhu Minglang would feel pity, but not pain.
"Is there such a shameless righteous god like you? Public morals are deteriorating day by day. Righteous gods nowadays can watch the commoners die and still act so righteous!" Old Man Ge rebuked angrily.
"I can't break free from your God-trapping Formation. What can I do? My abilities are limited," Zhu Minglang said bluntly.
"You're making me feel bored by putting up such a mess!" Old Man Ge said.
"Then what do you want? Tell me. You now have the upper hand with your wisdom, but you can only trap me. You can't do anything to me, "Zhu Minglang said.
"You still want to save them, right?"
"Yes, it's best if I can save them," Zhu Minglang said.
"Then let's play a game …" Old Man Ge said.
"Sure." Zhu Minglang was not in a hurry. He slowly watched the ancient demon play some tricks.
"My younger brother seems to have committed a lot of sins when he was young. I can see that his heart is as black as the mud in the ditch. It can be said that this guy is a complete evil person, "Old Man Ge said.
Zhu Minglang glanced at Ge Cheng, who was paralyzed on the couch. Indeed, Ge Cheng's body was surrounded by some evil aura. It was obvious that he had committed a sin.
However, the sins committed by people were under the jurisdiction of the yamen.
Unless he happened to bump into it, Zhu Minglang, a righteous god, would not casually intervene in this kind of mortal matter before he completely understood the cause of the matter.
"Yes, I've seen it. He has indeed committed some evil deeds." Zhu Minglang nodded.
"You tell him that if he drinks another vat of water, he will die. He can choose to end his life now. In that case, the other farmers who were affected by the death thirst curse will not die, "Old Man Ge said.
"If he is thirsty and no longer drinks water, the other farmers will all die tonight because their bellies burst from the water!" Old Man Ge continued.
Zhu Minglang understood Old Man Ge's meaning.
He was fooling people.
An evil person would make the choice.
Either the evil person would die and save the surrounding farmers.
Or the evil person would live and the surrounding farmers would die.
Of course, the interesting part of this game was that Zhu Minglang was locked together with Ge Cheng, who was making the choice.
Zhu Minglang could intervene in this matter and force Ge Cheng to die to save the other farmers who were affected by the death thirst curse.
On one hand, this Mysterious Ancient Demon was fooling people. On the other hand, he was tormenting Zhu Minglang's dao heart.
"Don't … Don't kill me … I've turned over a new leaf. I've really turned over a new leaf. All these years, I've been diligent …" Ge Cheng could naturally hear their conversation. Ge Cheng also knew that what was happening in the room and outside the room was beyond the scope of his understanding as a mortal.
They were immortals.
"You make the decision. I won't interfere," Zhu Minglang said to Ge Cheng.
"But I don't want to die … I don't even have a wife. I haven't tasted anything. I really don't want to die," Ge Cheng said with some pain.
"What did you do when you were young? Tell me. Don't lie. I can see your heart," Zhu Minglang said.
"I didn't do it on purpose. I didn't do it on purpose. My family was poor and all the money was given to my brother to get a wife. After my brother got a wife, my sister-in-law despised me and didn't even let me live in the ancestral home. I was angry, so I went to the city to work. I wanted to earn enough money to be proud. I admit that the things I did were very despicable. I instigated some vain girls to mix with some rich kids. One day, when my niece entered the city, I saw that she was the same as my sister-in-law, snobbish. Thinking of how the mother and daughter bullied me, I introduced my niece to a descendant of God. But I didn't force them. One was willing to be beaten and the other was willing to be beaten. Who knew that the descendant of God was a deranged person and killed my niece … Since then, I've been back here, farming, and haven't done anything outrageous. Moreover, I've been trying my best to compensate big brother and sister-in-law. "Ge Cheng said a lot in one breath. His skin was severely dehydrated.
"Which god's descendant?" Zhu Minglang raised his eyebrows and asked.
Zhu Minglang didn't want to meddle in the affairs of mortals. However, if it was related to a god's descendant … then it was within his jurisdiction!
He didn't expect that he would be able to fish out a scum.
"Now … now he is a true god. He is … he is the Symbol God." Ge Cheng stammered.
Ten years ago, the Symbol God was only a god's descendant. Moreover, he was a god's descendant on the side of Xuan Ge Divine Country.
Now that the Symbol God had established his own sect, he could be considered to have created his own world.
The Symbol God was clearly from the faction of Xuan Ge Divine Country.
His reputation had always been good. Zhu Minglang didn't have a deep impression of him, but his impression wasn't bad.
He didn't expect that the Symbol God was a beast in human clothing.
Of course, Zhu Minglang still had to investigate whether this matter was really done by the Symbol God.
He couldn't just rely on Ge Cheng's one-sided words.
Ge Cheng was a mortal. It was worth considering that he could come into contact with a god's descendant.
"Hehe, it turns out that there are so many grievances in this small family." Old Ge let out a strange laugh. "It turns out that my family's maiden was killed by you!"
"It wasn't me, it wasn't me. It was that god's descendant. It really wasn't me!" Ge Cheng said in a panic.
"But you aren't a good person either. After all, how could you not know how many innocent girls would be harmed by this kind of business?" Old Ge said with a smile.
"Good scolding." Zhu Minglang nodded his head repeatedly.
Saying that one was willing to hit and the other was willing to be hit.
How could this kind of shady business be clean? It was nothing more than finding a conscience to explain it. However, harming others was harming others!
You knew that a person was wandering in a daze and wanted to end his own life. You handed him a knife and he used it to stab himself to death. How could you say that it had nothing to do with you?
"I … I am really atoning for my sins. I beg you, please give me a way out. Because of this matter, I bore the pain for nearly 20 years. Every penny I earned was given to the gods. After 20 years, I feel that I can finally be free. It can be considered that I have completed my atonement. I want to start anew. I beg the two great immortals to give me this chance!" Ge Cheng pleaded.
"How can time tell whether a person has repented or not? You see, I am giving you a chance to redeem yourself. You can drink the last jar of water and die on the spot. You can save the other villagers who were also affected by the Death Thirst Curse. Doesn't this mean that you have really turned over a new leaf and become a good person … "Old Ge said outside the door.
"But … but I will die!" Ge Cheng cried.
"You can be a good person in your next life. It's the same. You have redeemed yourself. You don't have to suffer the punishment of hell in the next life. You can be reincarnated as a decent person. Maybe you will even be a descendant of a rich family. How good is that? The one next to you is a god. He can guarantee you that you will be reincarnated into a good family. "Old Ge, who was possessed by a mysterious ancient demon, was also very good at bewitching people.
