Ark's Journey to the Demon God

"Agaritu cannot die, at least he cannot be allowed to atone for his sins in that way. That is too cruel!" Mr. Olafur was the first to express his position. He thought about it all night, and finally decided to use all his efforts to give Agaritu Picture a decent ending!

That's right, he hadn't thought about discussing keeping Agaritu alive. Although he himself hoped that Agaritu would be safe, it was completely impossible to achieve.

Look at the debates on the streets. Most of them support one life for one life. Although Agaritu is special, in Sherag who devoutly believes in Yelagund, no matter how special he is, he still has to pay for the saint with his life!

Therefore, Mr. Olafur's ultimate goal today is to let Agaritu leave with dignity.

Chief Brantao said: "We may be able to solve the problem by deporting him, so that we can also give an explanation to the forces behind him."

The Brantao family's view is that Agaritu is an outsider, and this outsider obviously has some deep background in the outside country. If the Xierag people execute him so cruelly, it is likely to bring disaster to Xierag.

Old Bronta's point of view is very good, but he actually knows that it is unlikely to be adopted, but he still mentioned it because he knew that if he also demanded the death penalty, there is a high probability that none of the three families would do it. Requesting to save Agaritu's life. In this way, Manzhu

If the hospital were to add fuel and jealousy to its operation, Agaritu might not end well.

Therefore, in line with the principle that those who seek the superior will obtain the inferior, Old Brantao proposed the most "unreasonable" one, which could make Manzhuyuan's attitude more relaxed.

The Perrochi family is much more straightforward. One life is for another, which is reasonable. However, Nian did a lot of good things in Agaritu. Kowtowing 1 heads and bleeding people are unnecessary. It is better to give him a happy comparison. good.

In Manzhu Courtyard, the three parties each had their own proposals. In the end, the great elder announced the final judgment against Agaritu——

Tomorrow is the day when the Holy Lady is buried.At noon, the executioner will shoot Agaritu through the back of the neck with a bow and arrow in the square, in front of the Sherag people, so that he will die from the bow and arrow like the Holy Lady.

In this way, Agaritu retained the integrity of his body and his dignity, and the Holy Lady and Yeragonde also had an explanation, and both parties were happy.

Happy ass to all!

Mr. Olafur cursed secretly. He now wanted to tear the great elder in front of him into pieces, using the long knife in his cane.He was even thinking that if he drew the knife now, would it be possible to escape unscathed after killing the great elder.

He held the cane tightly and finally put it down dejectedly. Impulsiveness could not change anything. As the great elder said, this was already the happiest ending.

The heads of the three families bowed and left Manzhu Courtyard, and this judgment followed them to every corner of Xierag.

The Xielag people fell silent, and after the silence they left silently. People didn’t want Agaritu to die, but they also didn’t want the murderer to pay no price at all, so that’s it, now that Manzhuyuan has made a verdict , so be it, wait until noon tomorrow, everything will be over.

……

Time passed quickly, and in the evening, Shen Mukexi prepared a luxurious dinner, and judging from the food, he could vaguely feel how Manzhuyuan was going to deal with him.

He gnawed on the roasted animal legs and chatted with the leader of the Holy Mountain Army who was guarding him:

"Hey, little brother, this barbecue is very good. Was it you who made it?"

He joked with a smile and spoke very relaxedly. This helmeted guard was very kind to him. He did not make things difficult for him during the two days he was locked in the cell. Instead, he gave him many benefits that ordinary prisoners did not have, such as a brazier. Such as quilts, such as these dishes, such as his cane.

"It's me, are you eating well?"

The other party replied, and his voice sounded familiar.

"Very good, very good. Why is the meal tonight so sumptuous? Let me guess, is the great elder going to execute me?"

Shen Muke asked with a smile.

"Aren't you... afraid?" The guard was stunned. He really couldn't imagine that someone had already guessed his own ending and wasn't afraid?

"Afraid? Oh~ yes, I should be afraid. But brother guard, do you know that sometimes, fear cannot solve the problem, but will make us lose the last trace of dignity, so I will not tremble with fear because of this. .”

"You are so unique." The guard nodded and praised from the bottom of his heart.

"Brother guard, have we met before? I feel your voice is familiar..."

"Do you recognize me?" The guard brother seemed quite excited. He raised his hand and took off his helmet, revealing his Ursus ears. At the same time, he took off his gloves to reveal the helmet on his finger. Red gold ring.

"Oh!" Shen Muke said in surprise, "It's you!"

That's right, this one is the young Ursus boy who is looking for flowers and rings in Shen Muke's shop.

"Ah, I remember you, you were the young man who bought flowers! You should have a sweetheart named Lana. How are you? Does my method work? Did it help you?"

"It's useful!" The young man nodded, "I used your method and it really worked. Lana likes that ring very much. We made an appointment to get married in one month."

"Really? That's really happy. I wish you all the best. I wish you can spend the rest of your life peacefully and peacefully. It's best to have two children...a boy and a girl. How about that?"

"Thank you, thank you for your blessing." The young man replied shyly.

……

As night fell, Kjerag gradually calmed down.

"Mr. Agaritu?" The guard called Shen Muke softly.

"I'm still awake, little brother, what's wrong?"

"Sir, look."

Shen Muke sat up straight, and then he saw that his cage door was opened!

And the person who opened the door was that little brother!

"What are you doing?"

"Sir, this is what I had planned from the beginning. While the night is already dark, I will help you get out of here. No one will notice!"

"That won't work!" Shen Muke refused decisively, "I'm leaving, how are you going to explain to Manzhuyuan? How are you going to explain to Xierag?"

"I'll set a fire! Burn the whole prison down so they don't find out you've escaped!"

"That won't work either." Shen Muke shook his head. This little brother had a good idea, but the plan was too crude. "You burned it all with fire, but what will you do? A prison caught fire, and in the end you were the only one who survived. Doesn’t this make them suspicious? You can’t burn yourself to death, right? You don’t want your Lana anymore?”

"This..." The guard brother hesitated, and then he immediately said: "It doesn't matter! I can take Lana and leave Kjerag, leave the snow realm, and we will follow you wherever you go. That's all right. Well!"

"You want to leave me? And then live a homeless life?" Shen Muke didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he had to persuade him: "Your idea is so irresponsible, not to mention whether I will accept it. Why should you do it for you? Lana makes a decision? What if Lana is unwilling to leave? Do you want to give up on her? Give up the engagement? What's more, I am not the only prisoner in this prison. If you burn the entire prison on fire, what will they do? They are locked up In the cell, you will only be burned alive!"

"They are all people who have actually committed crimes. It would not be a pity even if they were burned to death!"

"Nonsense! Even if they really committed a capital crime, they should be judged and punished by the Kjerag people, instead of letting you burn them all in a fire! You don't have to say it anymore, I won't accept your plan , you don’t have to think about letting me go!”

"This..." The guard brother didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He originally wanted to let his benefactor live, but he didn't expect that it didn't work out, and instead he got scolded.

"Mr. Agaritu, no wonder they all say you are different. I see you are like this. I just saw it today."

The little brother took out a bottle of wine and handed it to Shen Muke.

"This is for you. At noon tomorrow, Manzhuyuan will have people execute you with bows and arrows. If you drink it before then, it will make you less conscious and reduce the pain..."

"No need!" Shen Muke waved his hand. He seemed quite tough at the moment: "There is no need to be confused. I have to stay awake at all times. The same is true on the execution ground. I will stare at the executioner and watch how he shoots with a bow and arrow. Damn me!"

"You... do as you like..." The guard had no choice but to sit down in silence.

call--

Suddenly there was a sound of wind blowing in the prison.

pat!

The little guard tilted his head and fainted.

"Sir! We are here to find you!" In the darkness, a naive bear's head popped up - it was Aktos!

"Why are you? How did you get in?" Shen Muke was stunned, and then he saw several figures emerging from under Aktos' heavy coat——

Enthiodis, Enya, Enthia, Ratatos and Nohis.

Several children he once taught are here!

"Why are you here? Oh no, how did you get in?"

“We came in in coordination with each other,” Nxiya explained.

This prison is built on a mountain, so it is difficult to reach it alone relying on these children.

So the children cooperated to complete this feat:

First, Aktos takes action and inquires about the location of Mr. Agaritu, the Holy Mountain Army at home;

Then, Enxia took action, found a suitable route, and led everyone up the hillside;

After that, Rata Toss took action and bribed the guard at the door;

In the end, when they found that the bribery failed, Enxiodis and Nosis directly used their Originium skills to knock out the guards, and several people successfully arrived!

What?You ask Enya?Enya will be a quiet and elegant girl, and then be responsible for persuading Shen Muke to escape from prison.

"I won't leave!" Shen Muke shook his head firmly. He had already confessed his crime according to the Great Elder's plan. If he ran away now, wouldn't the Great Elder have more reason to block Xierag?So his efforts were not in vain?So he refused to leave.

Enya looked at Shen Muke, the little girl's eyes were red.

"Don't cry, Enya, do you remember what I told you? Girls can't cry all the time. Crying means weakness. You have to be stronger!"

"Sir, you don't know yet, right? Manzhuyuan is going to execute you..." Enxiodis said. He wanted to use this method to persuade Shen Muke to leave.

"I know that Manzhuyuan wants me to die, and the Great Elder wants to cut me into pieces, but what's so scary about this? Isn't he just trying to change Xierag back to his backward and decadent state? The more I think like this, the more I fail to fulfill his wishes, and I will not give in to him even if my head falls on the ground!"

At this moment, in front of the children, Shen Muke showed amazing stubbornness. His eyes were full of light, as if he had won the battle with the great elder.

"But sir, if you lose your life, wouldn't everything be in vain?" Nohis reminded.

"Nohis, do you remember what I taught you? It's the story of fish and bear's paws."

Nohis' voice trembled. He knew that he would not be able to persuade Mr. Agaritu today: "I remember, you said: "Life is what you want, and righteousness is also what you want. You can't have both. If you get it, then you have to give up your life to seek righteousness]."

That's right!

Shen Muke agreed: "What you said is very good. That's it. Those who have achieved great things in the past and present have all sacrificed their lives for righteousness. I teach you this truth so that you can also do this. Sometimes, our [righteousness] comparison Life is more noble!”

There are always some things that are higher than others!

The children shivered and lowered their heads, they understood.

"Why are you crying? What's there to cry about? I've done my thing, you should be happy for me."

Shen Muke helplessly waved to Nohis to come over:

"Nohis, I have taught you many poems written by Yanguo people. Now I want to teach you the last one. This poem is not

It was written by people from the Yan Kingdom, but it was written by people from the Dong Kingdom in the Yan Kingdom language. This person is also a great person... You should listen carefully, I say something, you say something..."

"it is good…"

"There is no discussion of success or failure, but the spirit and spirit will survive through the ages."

"To live like this and die like this, sinners will think that they are clothed in cloth."

Shen Muke's voice was very soft, but his eyes were extremely bright. In his words, Xierag was growing rapidly.

Chapter 29 A generous sacrifice?The furnace indicates the new year!

For the Kjerag people, the Holy Mountain Ceremony in 1070 was very special.

Because their Kjerag will undergo earth-shaking changes after this ceremony, and an era is about to end.

On the second day after the Holy Hunting Ceremony, it was close to noon.

The funeral of the Holy Lady officially begins——

The funeral procession led by Actos Perroche lifted the saint's coffin. They had to rush to the mausoleum where the saints of the past generations were placed before noon, and then rush to bury them on time at noon.

And in the square of Manzhuyuan, countless Kjerag people crowded here. Different from the excitement they had participated in the grand event two days ago, today they had an extremely heavy heart. They were about to send away a kind and kind-hearted person. guest.

Although the fate of Agaritu, the murderer who accidentally killed the saint, had long been expected, when the Sherag people came to the square and saw Shen Muke sitting calmly cross-legged in the center of the execution platform, they still felt Bewildered.

How did things become like this?It was as if Kjerag had changed as soon as he woke up. This change came so unexpectedly that even now, many Kjerag people still don't want to believe it.

Shen Muke sat there calmly, with the cane lying across his arms. He looked calm, as if today was not his execution scene at all, but he was sitting here, preaching to all the Kjerag people who came to see him.

Shen Muke sat on the stage, his eyes scanning every familiar face below——

"Vitus, this child is much stronger than before... It seems that there is still a nutritional problem, so he should be allowed to eat more."

"Tyr, he is still so rough, his clothes are not buttoned up, and he is not afraid of being cold..."

"Anna, why are you crying? Oh, yes, you are sad for me. It's okay~ Wouldn't your life be the same without me? There is nothing in this world without anyone..."

……

Shen Muke's eyes swept over one by one, looking for familiar people. He remembered all those names in his heart.

Da da da da... footsteps sounded, and a tall Ursus man walked up to Shen Muke holding a long bow.

He leaned down and spoke as softly as possible:

"Mr. Agaritu? Sir, I am your executioner."

"Oh oh oh, nice to meet you." Shen Muke nodded repeatedly. Looking at this body and physique, the great elder really gave him face to arrange for such a ruthless person to send him away!

The strong man was stunned by Shen Muke's familiar answer. He was stunned for a while and then said: "Mr. Agaritu, according to the ruling of the parliament and Manzhu Academy, when the Holy Lady was buried at noon, I will shoot you through the neck with a bow and arrow from behind...these are things that a victim should know."

"Yeah, I've known it for a long time!" Shen Muke nodded: "But I hope the rules can be changed."
