All Heavens: Starting from Douluo
Chapter 1246 Painful Confession
"You...you...you are simply..."
"Crooked ways!"
"Yes, a crooked way!"
Tushan Honghong was so choked that she didn't know what to say. She pointed at the sharp-nosed and monkey-faced old Taoist priest angrily and shouted, "Even if you have been hurt by monsters, that's not a reason for you to hurt us. Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor... And you threatened me with Rongrong's life. How do you explain this despicable act?"
"Ah!"
The old Taoist took a sip of wine.
It’s mainly because alcohol gives cowards courage.
If it weren't for these two sips of wine, he really wouldn't dare to open this old scar.
He didn't dare to act wildly in front of Lin Chaoci.
Well, it’s the same in front of Wen Bolin and others.
However, after two sips of wine, his emotions gradually came to his mind, and the situation was naturally different: "I don't need to explain anything to you two monsters, and you don't deserve to listen to my explanation!"
Zhila! ! !
The demonic power was boiling, and a white smoke slowly rose from Tushan Honghong's body.
This gave Lin Chaoci and the others a headache.
The main reason is that Tushan Honghong’s emotions are too unstable.
It seems that Tushan Rongrong is calmer.
It is also easier to communicate.
However, Lin Chaoci really wanted to listen to it.
He bowed and said, "Senior, please tell me. I also want to know the reason..."
"I want to know the reason..."
"That's fine. I'll tell you guys about it."
"Tell me about that...unforgettable experience!"
The old Taoist's eyes gradually became cloudy. He poured a mouthful of wine into his mouth, drank it, leaned sideways, and leaned against the fender of the carriage. His expression gradually became serious, and his tone gradually became heavy: "Gentlemen, you will never imagine how the monsters treated us back then... They would catch us children and put us on a big platform, hang us up, and set up an iron plate underneath. After heating the iron plate to boiling hot, they would tell everyone in the village, mainly the parents of these children. When there is enough food on the iron plate, they would let us go. If no one stands up at that time, the ropes hanging on us would be cut, and we would fall onto the iron plate and become their food..."
"Damn it!"
"These beasts!"
"You are worse than pigs and dogs!"
Wen Bolin slapped the fender of the carriage.
The baffle was directly penetrated.
After staring at Ji Wuji and the others for a few seconds.
He pulled his hand back awkwardly.
Fortunately, Cuiyu Xiaotan knows wood-related magic.
Learned a few tricks from Yue Tixia.
He sighed and made a decision. The broken end of the wooden baffle suddenly began to grow new branches and buds, filling the gap with vines. At the same time, he also cleaned up the wood stumps around the end.
Tushan Honghong heard what the old Taoist said.
He also gradually put down the finger that he was pointing at the old Taoist priest's nose and scolding him.
Because this kind of cruelty was beyond her understanding.
She thought that the cruelest thing was just some notorious monsters eating people, and eating people was nothing more than swallowing people in one gulp. She never thought that such a cruel thing would happen.
"What happened next was that the parents of these children voluntarily stepped onto the iron plate and were scalded to death in order to protect these children, right?"
Lin Chaoci's expression was as calm as ever.
He was so calm that one would suspect he had no emotions.
Even suspected that he was cold-blooded.
Actually it is not.
Lin Chaoci is not a person who likes to show his emotions on the surface. If it is a positive emotion, for example, happiness, comfort, contentment, and relaxation, he will not pretend. But for emotions such as hatred, anger, jealousy, etc., Lin Chaoci never lets these things occupy the upper hand in his thoughts.
Because these emotions only lower his state.
It may even affect his judgment.
Therefore, the angrier he was, the calmer Lin Chaoci became.
Negative emotions will only be given to his opponent when he is sure of victory.
A tooth-for-tooth kind.
Just like the previous sweep of the South Country.
Secret cutting can indeed be done.
Just let Huandu Qingtian keep it a secret.
If a demon king is found to have fled for fear of crime and to take Huan Du Qingtian's life, he believes that Huan Du Qingtian will not joke about his own life. He also believes that Huan Du Luolan is right beside him and Huan Du Qingtian will not play any desperate tricks and inform the whole country and abroad.
But why did he have to make such a fuss?
Inspiring human morale is indeed one of the reasons.
Of course, one of his main purposes was to let these monsters in the south feel what it felt like to be in constant fear.
Panic is deadly.
Extreme panic can even lead to suicide.
Therefore, for Lin Chaoci, he has long passed that impulsive age. Now, he cannot be said to be as hard-hearted as a cold stone, because he still has good intentions towards his own people, and his bottom line is very broad. Even if he is occasionally offended, or bad things are said about him behind his back, as long as it is not said in front of him, he will not pursue it. Because of this, it can only be said that he is indeed ruthless and will not show mercy when facing the enemy.
However, the old Taoist's answer gave Lin Chaoci a long-awaited lesson.
There was a hint of bitterness in his tone.
I guess the wine in the wine gourd is sweeter than this.
He said in a hoarse voice, "No, Master Lin, you are both right and wrong... The monsters have a big appetite. The parents of these children did take the initiative to step on the iron plate, but they are only the second batch. The first batch of people who stepped on it were the elderly in the village. Among them, many are the grandparents of these children. There are also some elderly people who think that they will be killed if they stretch their heads or shrink their heads. They just want to die quickly, and it is worth it if they can save a few young and strong people."
In the face of life and death, some people will indeed retreat.
But there are always some people who stand up.
Move forward for reasons that cannot be given up.
It’s not that they are not afraid of death.
They are scared to death, but they are even more afraid that their lineage will be cut off.
To put it in a bad way, this phenomenon is called favoring sons over daughters.
Many elderly people attach great importance to inheritance.
Also called the old man who pays attention to incense.
It's all this concept.
But it really comes to the time of death.
They will indeed take the lead without hesitation.
The pros and cons are obvious.
The Tao cannot be destroyed by just one word.
The corners of Wen Bolin's eyes twitched slightly, and he raised and clenched his arms and fists several times, but after some hesitation, he dropped them. Even though Ji Wuji's expression was uglier than his, so were Shi Tang and Cui Yu Xiaotan. Almost everyone was filled with murderous intent.
Only Lin Chaoci didn't.
Because Lin Chaoci was very sober.
He was sober enough to order the others: "Calm down, the dead cannot be resurrected. Now, even if you die of anger, those things have already happened. If you really want to do that, then suppress your distracting thoughts and practice well. Even if your cultivation level cannot reach the level of overcoming the tribulation and you cannot go back to the past to change those things, you can prevent similar things from happening at some point in the future."
"light and spacious!"
"Mr. Lin is indeed right!"
"I'm an old man, please give me some pointers."
"That is to say, I am not saying this to say how miserable I am, nor to say how wronged I am. Since I set foot on this path, I have never thought about dying peacefully on my bed, because I know one thing very well... I am a coward, a waste, a waste who is powerless to change reality. I can only use more cruel and despicable means to take revenge on the monster, even if I die."
"So, the reason I say this is to tell you that the road ahead is long. Don't be a fool and let anger get the better of you. Only by staying alive can you get everything."
"This is how my life will be."
"But the future of the Dao League lies in you."
"I can only do my best to destroy the young foundation of the demon race. You are the hope to defeat the demon king and even the three great demon emperors. You are the geniuses who have the potential to break the jade pillars that support the demon race."
The old Taoist priest raised the wine gourd.
With drunken eyes, he roared loudly.
