Hearing Zhu Ergou's words, Hong Ni Le could not help but ponder for a moment before asking, "Just what are you trying to say?"
"Thunder is always accompanied by lightning, especially when it's so loud. How can you not see lightning?" Zhu Ergou laughed, "I think this thunder is a bit strange!"
Just as he finished speaking, the faint sounds of ghosts crying could be heard from all around, echoing with the sounds of the wind blowing against the leaves, making the dark night seem much more sinister!
Hong Ni Le could not help but slowly move closer to Zhu Ergou and ask in a low voice, "Brother, are we surrounded by ghosts?"
Hearing that there was a ghost, Zhu Ergou panicked, and instinctively thought about the matter of Li Sanmei chopping off their heads. Hence he asked, "Could it be that Li Sanmei chipped off a living person, which is why she called the ghost over? Or maybe, this ghost is Li San Mao's ghost? "
As he said that, he heard a trembling voice that was as thin as a mosquito saying, "I died miserably. I want revenge!" Give me back my life! "
When Zhu Ergou heard this voice, he could not help but cry out loud, "Big brother, this really is Li Sanmei's voice!"
"Huh?" Hong Niale was so scared that he retreated two steps, "This kid must have felt lonely on the Road to River Styx. That's why he wanted to pull us all along. We must not agree to his request!"
"Big brother, I'm afraid this isn't something we can decide!" Zhu Ergou looked around and only saw the wind blowing the branches back and forth, like a pair of demon claws waving in the darkness, causing him to tremble with fear!
"Big brother Hong, second brother Zhu, where are you people? It's too dark for me to see clearly. Could you please hold the torch higher? " Although the voice was deep, it was much better than before. It was extremely clear to the ears of the people. Every word was enough to make their nerves tense!
"Mother!" Zhu Ergou let out a strange cry and extinguished the torch in his hand. Seeing this, Hong Ni Le also hurriedly threw away the torch in his hand. The other gang members were also inspired and threw away their torches, slowly moving towards Zhu Er and Hong.
"Don't come over! You stupid pigs! " Zhu Ergou was afraid that the arrival of others would make him and Hong Niele stand out like celebrities, so he quickly stopped them.
The gang members couldn't wait to highlight Hong and Li Yu, so Li San Mao's ghost could take them away and spare the innocent. However, because of their status, they didn't dare to disobey Zhu Er Gou's orders, so they could only stand far away, staring at the two of them with a pair of pearls in their eyes, as if they were afraid that the ghosts would not understand.
Seeing this, Zhu Ergou could not help but curse in his heart, "This bunch of grandsons only think of protecting their lives at critical moments, yet they even dare to sell me out. It seems they can't be taken advantage of!"
When Zhu Ergou thought about it, he waved to one of the sect members and said, "Zhu Ergou, aren't the Three Cat Brothers calling you by your name? Come out and say something! "
While he was shouting like that, he rushed towards the gang member. At that time, Hong Niale understood his intentions, so he imitated his actions and shouted towards one of the gang members, "Big brother Hong, come out and say something!"
The two gang members were suddenly taken as Zhu Ergou and Hong Niale. They were so scared that their faces had turned pale. They had wanted to sneak into the crowd and get into the fray, but to their surprise, the gang members had taken the initiative to retreat to the side in order to protect their lives, isolating the two of them.
Although Zhu Ergou ran towards the two gang members, he made a turn and ran into the crowd. Instead, he shouted, "Brother Sanmei, there is your Second Brother Zhu!"
Hearing that, Hong Niele also became anxious, he immediately dived into the crowd and shouted: "Brother San Mao, quickly take your big brother Hong away! He is here, and we are afraid! "
His words caused the two isolated gang members to be stupefied. They stared with frightened eyes at Li Sanmei as they searched their surroundings for her ghost. They were so shocked that they even forgot to explain themselves as they just stood there like idiots!
"Hahaha!" Just look at your unpromising future. With you bunch of trash, the Earth Words Sect has truly lost all of their face! " The sound of wind breaking sounded out as a blue shadow suddenly appeared from the dense forest like a ghost. It gracefully stood in front of everyone as it raised its hand to stroke the black beard that was half a foot long. It said with a smile: "Look at who I am."
Hong Ni Le squinted her eyes for a long time before her tears turned into a smile: "Brother Ge, why is it you?"
"Who else could it be other than me?" The person who came was Ge Hua Qing. He glared at Hong Ni Le with a look of disdain, "Did the thunderous roar just now scare you to the point that you peed your pants?"
"What is this Taoist Ge saying?" I, Honeyler, am still a well-known figure in the martial arts world. I have seen great scenes, so how could I not be as unbearable as you say? " Honeyler spoke with a straight face and did not let out a breath. He had a cold demeanor.
"Hmph, is that so?" Ge Hua Qing sneered. "Since we're fearless, then why would we sell out our brothers just because of a few screams?"
"Pfft!" I was just using some tricks, did you know that? " Hongluo said angrily.
"Using stratagem? With what? "Don't tell me Cao'e had been defeated while keeping a low profile?" Ge Hua Qing laughed coldly.
Hong Ni Le gaped at him, unable to find any words to refute. He could only glare at Zhu Er Gou, and heard him say: "You are wrong! We were indeed planning to use you just now. If not for that, how would you have shown up? "
"Is that so?" Ge Hua Qing pointed at the cold sweat on Zhu Ergou's forehead and laughed, "Your sweat has not dried yet, how come you speak so boldly and brazenly?"
"Dao Friend Ge, we respect you as a figure and we don't want to be rude, but don't you know what's good for you. If you anger us brothers, we will still make you lose face!" Zhu Ergou bellowed.
These words were said for the benefit of both Hong Ni Le and the sect members. As expected, the moment these words were spoken, everyone immediately hefted the steel saber in their hands, as if they were on guard against an enemy!
Seeing that the situation had become tense, Honeyley coughed lightly and laughed loudly, "What are you all doing? We're all brothers of Earth Sect, why are you drawing your sword when we don't agree? Do you even have the friendship of being in the same sect? Put away your swords! "
These words were both an order and a way out. How could the crowd disobey him? Ge Hua Qing then asked, "Earlier, I heard from the trees that you were going to use the Fire Slaughter Village. Is that true?"
"That's right!" Now that everything is ready, we don't owe the East Wind any! " Honeyley laughed.
"I can't accept this!" Ge Hua Qing's face darkened as he stared coldly at Hong Ni Le's face. "Unless you have nine heads!"
"What a joke!" If I can have nine heads, would I still be human? " Hong Ni Le sneered, "Looks like Taoist Ge was learning thunder and shouting like a ghost just now to stop us from killing, right?"
"That's right!" As long as you stop moving, everything can be discussed! " Ge Hua Qing laughed.
"Pui!" Do you think you are Sect Leader Zeng? " Honglin sneered, "You don't have the qualifications to order your brothers around here!"
"Brother Hong, both of you aren't going according to plan. If you make any more mistakes, not only will you not be able to handle the crimes under Pavilion Master Wu, even Sect Leader Zeng won't let you off easily!" Ge Hua-Qing reminded.
"You don't have to worry about that, Brother Ge!" Zhu Ergou smirked, "With my big brother's intelligence, how could he not see the problem? Right now, he is thinking of how to make up for his loss, but you are at your wit's end. On the contrary, you have to agitate your lips and tongue, with the intention of ruining my brother's life.
"Zhu Ergou! "Little brat, stop messing around. Let me tell you, if you kill these villagers, you will only end up losing your life!" Ge Hua Qing said angrily.
"That's a matter of us brothers. We can't blame you for this, not even for you to worry about!" Zhu Ergou said.
"You, you are so stupid!" Ge Hua Qing said angrily.
"Dao Master Ge, you insist on persuading us brothers. What is your goal?" Honile asked.
"I don't know what their goal is, but I feel that these villagers have not yet suffered enough. They can't die so easily!" Ge Hua Qing said.
"Hahahaha!" Hong Niale threw his head back and laughed wildly, "Everyone says that our family is merciful, but in my opinion, that's not the case. At the very least, someone like you, Daoist Master Ge, doesn't have a merciful heart! The villagers are all poisoned, their bodies are rotten, they are living a life worse than death, and every day they still have to drink that stinky sewage to stop their pain. Even though the punishment they have suffered are just torture and slashing, you still feel unsatisfied.
"You don't understand shit! There are many things that you can only see on the surface, but not understand the insides of it. I can't be bothered to explain it to you! " Ge Hua Qing said.
"What secret?" I would like to ask for an explanation! " Honile said coldly.
"You don't need to know, nor can you know!" Ge Hua Qing said coldly.
"Why?" Honeyler asked as he looked at Ge Huajing suspiciously.
"Because if anyone knows the secret, they will never have a good ending!" Ge Hua Qing said.
"It doesn't matter! I, Honor, am not afraid! " Honile said calmly.
Ge Hua Qing sized up Hong Ni Le and could not help but sneer. "Are you really not afraid?"
"Of course! Once someone arouses my curiosity, if I am unable to satisfy them, then it would be impossible for me to do the same! " Hong Ni said.
Ge Huajing was silent for a moment, then raised his head and looked up at the night sky. Since there are people who, in order to satisfy their own curiosity, disregard the safety of their own lives, if I am not satisfied, then it would truly be unreasonable! "
"Cut the crap!" Just go straight to the point! " Hennessy urged impatiently.
"Do you know the name of this village?" Ge Huajing asked.
"Nonsense!" Who doesn't know that this village is called Huang An Village? " Honeyler asked with a look of disdain.
"Then, did you know that in order to make a bet, the Poison King, Linghu Yong, had dripped a drop of poison into a well, killing 101 people, and that well was in the village?" Ge Huajing asked.
"What a coincidence!" Honeyley scratched the back of his head and muttered under his breath, "Even if it's such a coincidence, what does it have to do with what happened today?"
"That Linghu did not attract a lot of martial artists in the martial arts world to make him an enemy because of his heavy killing. Everyone wanted to get rid of him, but they were unable to do anything to his poison. Do you know how he died?" Ge Huajing asked.
"Of course! To think that he wanted to use Linghu Yong's gambling weakness to force him to drink the Thousand Poisons Heart Piercing Powder personally crafted by himself, and then allow him to detoxify the poison; in the end, he was actually unable to cure it, and finally died under his own poison! " Honeyley laughed.
"Then do you know how tragic Linghu Yong's death was?" Ge Huajing asked.
"Of course! Because he had made too many enemies, the people in the martial world all hated him to the bones. Everyone wanted to eat his flesh and sleep on his skin. It was said that one piece of meat from him back then could actually be sold for 9000 taels of silver! To put it bluntly, if Hall Master Wu hadn't made his fortune selling Linghu Yin's meat, he wouldn't have possessed the Wishing Pavilion today! " Honeyley laughed.
"That's right!" "Linghu Yong's meat is even more expensive than dragon meat, and Pavilion Master Wu did indeed make a small fortune from that. But who would have thought for Linghu Yin that his death would be so miserable?" Ge Huajing asked.
"A person like him should never have lived in this world. If he had died, that would have been the happiest thing to happen! Who would pity him? " Honeyler sneered.
"There is indeed such a person!" Ge Hua Qing said with a dark expression.
"Who is it? "Could it be that this brat has destroyed his conscience and is now unable to differentiate between good and evil?" Honile asked.
"He's Linghu Wu Hen!" Ge Hua-Qing enunciated every word.
"What?" Hong Ni Le was so shocked that her mouth gaped open, and she only closed it after a long time. "This person is Linghu Wu Hen?"
"That's right!" "Not only did he pity Linghu Yin, he also swore to kill all those who displeased Linghu Yong. Only by doing so could we be considered to have avenged Linghu Yin!"
"What is the relationship between him and Linghu Yong?" Why would he do that? " Honile asked.
"This is another secret!" Ge Hua Qing smiled faintly. "If you want to know this secret, you will have to pay with your life. However, you already have no way to compensate with your life!"
Honeyley thought he was joking, because he didn't believe that Ge Huajing would dare to take his life. On the contrary, he was willing to cooperate with Ge Huajing on his own accord, because he was worried that if he didn't, Ge Huajing wouldn't have the motivation to continue speaking!
Therefore, Honeyley took the opportunity to look at the group of brothers behind him and asked with a smile, "I have no life left to repay, but you guys still have more. Do you want to continue listening?"
Of course I want to!
There was no one who didn't want to continue listening!
Curiosity was something that everyone had. Especially when the curiosity was aroused by another person, that desire to learn was enough to swallow the last bit of rationality in one's heart!
"We are all willing to sacrifice our lives! Dao Master Ge, continue on! " Zhang Si Duck also felt that Ge Hua Qing was joking. At the very least, he couldn't see any signs of danger from Hong Ni Le's face, so he started to smile cooperatively.
"Good!" Since all of you are willing to sacrifice your lives, then I will continue! " Ge Hua Qing laughed.
