Villager of Destiny

Chapter 256 I Need The Truth

I got it right.

Therefore, no matter whether it is a demon or a sprite, their lives will be preserved.

Swing a sword again.

This time, they are in their respective statues, and there is no way to escape.

The sword light came, and the two statues shattered at the same time.

However, just as I was about to enter the holy village again, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly appeared in my ears. I turned my head and saw that it was Elder Tian.

Seeing Elder Tian, ​​I couldn't help but sighed.

It's just that Elder Tian didn't look at me at the first time, but walked quickly to the location where the two statues were broken. I followed and looked over, but this look made me stunned again.

Where are the fragments of the statue at this time?

It's really two people.

Two men in guard clothes.

It's just that the two of them have lost their breath at this time, and there are still traces left by my sword on their bodies, which are clearly visible.

Seeing this scene, my heart sank completely.

Could it be that even just now, I was still hallucinating?
Before I could think about it, Elder Tian was already glaring at me.

"What else do you have to explain now?"

"I..." I wanted to explain, but for a while I didn't know what to say.

unambiguous evidence!

After sighing, I said helplessly, "Would you believe me if I said it was an accident?"

Elder Tian snorted coldly and said: "Since you came to us, Gu King has been treating each other with courtesy, but you are so ignorant of good and evil!"

"This is really a misunderstanding." I was depressed, but looking at the people around me, I gave up the idea of ​​resisting. According to the current situation, resisting is of no benefit to me.

It will only make the relationship between me and Miao Jiang worse and worse.

That way he fell into the trap of that City God instead.

I couldn't help scolding that City God several times in my heart.

He is obviously a city god, and he is also a city god who guards Huangquan Road. He can be regarded as one of the twelve strongest city gods, but he has to use these indecent methods.

What is this?
Soon I was tied up again, and it was even tighter than the previous time. Although it was not a big tie, it was not much worse.

Maybe even because he was afraid that I would run away again, when he led me into the holy village, Elder Tian stared at me from the beginning to the end, hardly blinking, making my skin crawl.

I really want to tell him that all of this is the work of the city god.

But seeing him like this still made me dispel the idea.

In addition, since they appeared, everything has become calm again, and even Yan has not appeared again, so even if I tell the truth, Elder Tian will not believe it.

I can only wait to see Gu King.

I thought to myself.

Fortunately, Elder Tian didn't take me directly back to the prison this time, but took me to the temple again.

It's just different from the first time I came to the temple, this time there were also many guards standing outside the temple, plus those guards following Elder Tian, ​​I'm afraid not even a fly can escape in this posture.

Elder Tian didn't hesitate, and led me directly into the temple.

But when I got to the temple, I was stunned.

Zhang Mingyu!
"What did you do to him?"

My eyes are tearing apart.

At this time, Zhang Mingyu looked extremely miserable, his face was pale, not to mention a trace of blood, and there were some obvious bruises on his body, and those bruises did not seem to be injured, but seemed to have something crawled into him in the body.

Looking at him, my heart ached.

Elder Tian didn't answer me, but looked at the Gu King who was sitting in the hall with his head slightly lowered.

"King Gu, someone brought it here."

Gu King didn't answer, just waved his hand slightly.

Seeing this, Elder Tian withdrew directly.

I didn't care about other things, and hurried to Zhang Mingyu's side. Zhang Mingyu's faint breath made my heart sink to the bottom of the valley.

I couldn't help but look at Gu King.

"Gu King, is it necessary?"

Only then did King Gu look up at me.

"He not only has Soul Devouring Gu on him now, but also a variety of different Gu insects."

"Why did you do this?" At this moment, there was only anger in my heart.

"Would you believe me if I said that when we found him, he was already like this?" Gu Wang stood up slowly.

My body trembled involuntarily.

"You don't believe it." Gu Dynasty and I walked over, "Just like I don't believe that the deaths of those people have nothing to do with you."

I fell silent.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

"You should understand in your heart that all this has something to do with that City God."

"Why are you still being led by the nose?"

"Because I'm the only one who believes, it's useless." Gu Wang said lightly: "If you want to be convincing, it is only useful if most people believe it."

"It's just a small part, and it doesn't make much sense."

"Even if I trust you, what's the use?"

"People in the whole holy village are watching, there is no evidence, they will only believe what they see."

I was speechless.

I know he's right.

People only believe what they see.

So even if Gu King and I know it well and there is no evidence, what they see is the truth!
I took a deep breath before saying, "So what do you want to do?"

Gu Wang glanced at me.

"Follow the rules."

"Your life must stay here."

"You still want to kill us?" My heart sank slightly.

Gu King didn't answer me, but squatted beside Zhang Mingyu, put his hand near Zhang Mingyu's mouth, Zhang Mingyu let out a muffled groan after a while, and then several Gu worms scrambled out of Zhang Mingyu's body.

Zhang Mingyu's complexion suddenly became much better.

But his breath was still very weak.

Because his soul is dissipating.

That is Soul Devouring Gu.

"Soul-eating Gu can't be taken for the time being." After putting away the Gu worms, the Gu King said to me.

I froze for a moment.

Some do not quite understand.

The Gu King continued: "I can temporarily suppress the Soul Devouring Gu for him for two days. During these two days, if you can't find the City God, he will die."

"It's not difficult to take out the Soul Devouring Gu, there's no need to restrain it." I said.

"Of course it's not difficult to get Gu." The Gu King said lightly, "But..."

He looked at me.

"I need the truth."

My body trembled again.

I see what he means.

He is persecuting me.

Forced me to find that city god as soon as possible.

That is the truth of what he said.

If not found.

Zhang Mingyu and I will become the city god's scapegoats. Even if he knows the truth, what he wants is the truth that convinces everyone in the holy village.

"Do you have to do this?" I looked at him.

Gu King looked calm.

"You can choose to refuse."

"But...he's going to die now."

"Of course, you can save him too."

"With your ability, it shouldn't be difficult."

"But before the truth is unconvincing, if you want to save him, as Gu King, I must stop you."
