Ge Cheng lay there, looking at Zhu Minglang with a pair of painful eyes.
God was right in front of him.
Seeking forgiveness, longing for redemption …
Unfortunately, Zhu Minglang was not the kind of god who would save all living beings.
Most of the time, he could just watch coldly from the sidelines.
"I said, I won't interfere with your choice." Zhu Minglang said.
"I … I want … I want to live. The next life is the next life … In this life, I have been offended for a long time. I am forty years old, I want to live." Ge Cheng said.
"Up to you." Zhu Minglang said.
"Hey, hey, hey, what kind of god are you? If he lives, others will die. Enlighten him, let him realize that he needs to redeem himself. Only then can he have a better life in the next life. Talk to him about the next life!" At this time, Mysterious Ancient Monster was anxious.
"He said that the next life is the next life. He wants to live in this life …" Zhu Minglang said.
"Are you going to watch him die? Those innocent farmers, those kind and hardworking people should die!"
"Monster, you are a bit funny. The one who killed them is you, not me. You have to bear this crime. When I come out and kill you, it will still be a merit. It is equivalent to avenging those dead souls. "Zhu Minglang said.
"Hehe, I don't believe you will watch those innocent people die. You have an auspicious aura. You are clearly half a good cultivator. You won't do this kind of thing! "Mysterious Ancient Monster sneered.
Zhu Minglang decided to just sit by the side of the stool and quietly wait for the array that trapped him to disappear.
The mysterious ancient demon did indeed have some ability. A small thatched hut was used as a sealed temple. Zhu Minglang did not have much knowledge of the Qimen Dunjia and did not know how to break this array … Most importantly, he could not even summon a dragon now. The Spirit Realm was sealed by this mysterious ancient demon.
It was the first time Zhu Minglang knew that there was a spell in this world that could seal a dragon master's spiritual domain.
How did Mysterious Ancient Monster know that he was a dragon master?
As Zhu Minglang quietly pondered this question, Mysterious Ancient Monster outside became even more anxious.
"Hmph, just let those farmers outside die, incompetent deities!" Mysterious Ancient Yao said.
Time ticked by. Zhu Minglang saw that Ge Cheng, who was beside him, was in extreme pain.
Presumably, Ge Cheng was also suffering from double torture.
On one hand, he wanted to be free, but on the other hand, he was unwilling to die like this.
From time to time, he would glance at Zhu Minglang and realized that Zhu Minglang had no intention of forcing him.
He resisted the thirst and refused to drink a single drop of water.
In the corner of the room, there was a vat of water.
That vat of water would take his life. He was actually very worried that Zhu Minglang would pry open his mouth and pour that vat of water down his throat.
"Congratulations, you made those innocent farmers lose their lives. Congratulations, you made those hundreds of women lose their men and their children lose their fathers. Tsk tsk, it's all because of your selfishness and indifference!" Mysterious Ancient Monster said in an unpleasant voice.
"How about I make a suggestion?" Zhu Minglang said.
"What?"
"You let everyone here go, and I'll let you go?" Zhu Minglang said.
"Hahaha, you're really interesting. Don't you want to save these people? Why pretend that you don't care? Since you want to save people, then persuade this Ge Cheng to die!" Mysterious Ancient Monster said.
"Saving a life is better than building a seven-floor pagoda. But if you kill someone, you'll have to sit in the eighteenth floor of hell. Evil spirit, think about it, with your current cultivation, harming people is actually no good for you. You'll just increase the anger of deities like us for no reason. Let's put it this way, if the people outside are alive, I'll be happy. If they die, I'll be angry. I'll vent my anger on you. As a good cultivator, I'll have a conscience, so I'll kill you with my own hands. It's not easy for you to come into being, so why bother with a deity like me? Can't you just live a carefree life? Are the mountains not fragrant and the water not flowing? Listen to this deity's advice, repent and be saved. It's not too late to put down the butcher's knife. I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself. You must grasp it well. "Zhu Minglang began his deity counseling.
Mysterious Ancient Monster was outside the door. He was so angry that he wanted to pound on the door.
Why don't you follow the rules of the game!
I told you to counsel that Ge Cheng, why did you counsel me!
I've been a demon for so many years, do I need a brat like you to counsel me? Do I need you to teach me how to be a demon!
"Shut up! If you continue to waste time with me, the corpses of those farmers will rot! "Mysterious Ancient Monster angrily said.
"My attitude towards many people and many deities is also the same. I have never tried to persuade people to do good, and I have never tried to reform a demon. I have even told the Beast God and the Evil Man that you can continue to do evil, continue to ravage those pitiful and innocent lives, but as long as you look up at the heavens and pray to the heavens for one thing, don't encounter me. How you treat others, I will treat you … My Dao lies in this. So, don't expect me to become anxious because of the lives of those people outside, or compromise with you. Right now, you only need to think of one thing, how to escape from my butcher's knife! "Zhu Minglang said to Ancient Demon.
"Do you think you can scare me like this?" Mysterious Ancient Monster laughed loudly.
"Actually, according to my understanding, after Mysterious Ancient Monster has trapped the deities, you will take the opportunity to start a massacre. You are very strange, you like to discuss Dao with me here." Zhu Minglang said.
This sentence seems to have accidentally stepped on Mysterious Ancient Monster's tail. Mysterious Ancient Monster almost jumped up outside the door.
"That's right. You reminded me. I'm going to start a massacre now. These dead people all have your help!" Mysterious Ancient Demon said.
"Go. I will convict you based on the number of people you have killed. Your soul can be locked in my Yama Dragon's cycle of atonement and fried in the oil of hell." Zhu Minglang said with a smile.
…
The surroundings became silent.
Ge Cheng let out a painful groan in the house.
But he listened to the conversation between the two great immortals.
To be honest, he could no longer tell who was the immortal and who was the demon. He felt that the person inside the house was a bit more demon, and the demon outside was a bit more immortal.
"The demon … did it leave? Did it really start a massacre?" Ge Cheng asked cautiously.
"It should be."
"Then is it too late for me to choose now? I … I don't want to carry such a sin. If the entire city is destroyed because of my cowardice …" Ge Cheng hurriedly said.
"Oh, your self-redemption is measured by a ruler. There are hundreds of farmers living around. You are not willing to save them with your life, but you are willing to save a city," Zhu Minglang said.
"I just … I just thought it through."
"Up to you. Anyway, it is a demon's words. You can believe it if you want," Zhu Minglang said.
Ge Cheng was stunned.
The immortal meant that the demon was deceiving them.
Even if he ended his own life, he still couldn't save the people outside??
"Great immortal, what should I do? What should I do? Please guide me!" Ge Cheng begged.
"Bear with it and survive. Then go to the yamen and confess your crimes. If the yamen feels that it was something that happened twenty years ago and is unable to investigate, then you will be free. It is not up to you to think that you have atoned for your crimes. Do you understand?" Zhu Minglang said.
"But the people outside all died because of me." Ge Cheng was also struggling in his heart.
"They have nothing to do with you. It is a demon that kills people, and it is also a demon that harms people. Besides, it can't kill. It has been squatting outside the door and listening to our movements inside," Zhu Minglang said.
"Damn it!! How do you know!! "Xuan Gu Yao's angry cry suddenly came from outside the door.
"Demon, you have to guard the door personally for this Trapping God Temple's demon technique. It is getting late. Have you thought it through? Do you want to put down the butcher's knife or be chased to the ends of the earth by me?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"Don't make me choose. It is you who will make the choice. It is you!!" Xuan Gu Yao was flustered and exasperated.
"Why? Is it important who makes the choice?" Zhu Minglang raised his eyebrows.
Demons had many tricks.
It could also be said that they fooled the world with some rules.
These rules would have a certain effect on their demon techniques. For example, some demons would tell you, "Do you dare to turn back?" after pestering you.
Most of the time, people would be afraid and wouldn't dare to look back. God knows what terrifying scene they would see when they turned back.
Therefore, people would be in a state of being suppressed by demons and demons. They would be so scared that they would forget to think. They would be so scared that they couldn't see through their carefully arranged tricks and then fall into their trap bit by bit.
Xuan Gu Yao's behavior was indeed very strange.
It was as if he was a person who wanted to discuss the Dao and wanted to debate with you.
It eagerly wanted Zhu Minglang or Ge Cheng to make a choice, as if it would win.
Break the Dao heart??
Was Xuan Gu Yao trying to break the Dao heart of a god?
Because once one fell into his trap, no matter what choice he made, it would be against the heavens. It would interfere with the right to live.
Suddenly, the door opened.
The rain and wind hit the wooden door, and the cold air rushed to Zhu Minglang's body.
Zhu Minglang immediately used his Divine Sense to search this Trapping God Formation and found that this formation was not as strong as before!
Moreover, Zhu Minglang noticed a point just now. This seemed to have a lot to do with the trapping formation.
"Ge Cheng, is there a lock on the door of your small hut?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"It broke a few months ago. I think it's useless to lock it, so I simply didn't fix it. There is only a latch on the inside. When I sleep inside, I bolt it to prevent things from running in. "Ge Cheng replied.
"I understand." Zhu Minglang nodded.
"What do you know, what do you know? The people outside are already living a life worse than death. I heard their wails and saw them drinking the mud water crazily. They are going to die!" Xuan Gu Yao scolded.
"No matter what choice I make, it's like locking myself in the house with a latch. I will always be entangled in the problem of who to save and trap myself in my own moral condemnation. Your Trapping God Formation is built according to this. If you want to lock me, a god, I have to bolt the door myself. Then you can leave without worries. Otherwise, you have to block the door and not let me open it." Zhu Minglang understood.
