Chapter 42: Interrogation

"Say, where is Miss Maki locked up by you!" Ichiro grabbed a man by the collar and roared. On the side was a group of villagers who had fallen to the ground.

After Congmo entered the village, all the villagers who were hostile to him were crushed to the ground by the invisible weight, until no one dared to approach him again. And Ichiro found the person who led the pursuit of him in the first place among the people who fell to the ground, and began to ask questions.

"Ichiro, you actually colluded with outsiders, the gods will not let you go!"

With a thud, Ichiro punched him to the ground again. I wonder if I'm going to give this bastard a little more pain.

"Don't bother." Mo stepped forward and put his hand on the man's head, then turned to Ichiro and confirmed, "Are you sure he knows where that Miss Maki is?" ”

"Yes, Your Highness Mo! He was the one who led a group of men to hunt us down. Miss Maki must have been found by them and brought back to the village. So he must know where Miss Maki is being held now. ”

"Uh-huh......", Mo nodded, and a dark light slowly appeared on his hand. I saw that the man who was grabbed by the head suddenly trembled, and then collapsed to the ground like mud.

This...... This is......

Ichiro looked at the man on the ground with some surprise.

And Ah Li, who also saw this scene, unconsciously shrank behind Huiyin. Although she didn't understand what it was, her spiritual sense told her that it was definitely not a good thing.

Mo withdrew his hand, a hint of discoloration flashed in his eyes, and then looked at Ichiro: "When was the original day of sacrifice?" ”

Forehead...... Ichiro pouted and replied, "According to their original date, it should be the day after tomorrow." ”

"yes, it looks like they changed their decision on the fly."

Soon, Ichiro reacted and exclaimed, "Your Highness Mo, what do you mean!" ”

"Hmm...... From the information shown in his memory, that Miss Maki had been taken on her way to the altar. ”

"This ......" Hearing this, Ichiro's face instantly turned extremely pale.

Mo glanced at him and said lightly: "Don't worry, their team seems to have just left, and it should be too late to chase after them now." ”

"Then let's go now!" Hearing this, Ichiro couldn't care about anything else, and hurriedly wanted to rush to the outside of the village.

"Wait." Mo stretched out his hand to stop him, "Although they have just left for a short time, with your speed, they can't catch up." ”

"That'...... So what to do......"

Mo ignored Ichiro, who had become a bit of a six-godless master, and instead turned his gaze to Huiyin to the side.

Noticing Mo's gaze, Huiyin smiled, "What, do you want me to help." ”

"I'm just worried that you'll run away if I'm not there."

Huiyin shook her head, then turned to Ah Li and the others and said, "I will go with His Highness Mo, and you will stay in the village." This time, I'm afraid we'll have a conflict with the 'Divine Spirit', and it will be difficult for us to protect you if you're around. ”

Ali nodded, silent. And Ichiro opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't say it. He knew that even if he went, he would only be a drag.

Mo instructed the attendants on the side: "Crow, watch over them." If anyone wants to do it, kill it. ”

"Yes!"

Mo glanced around at the group of people who were still lying on the ground. The villagers probably won't be able to get up for half a day. And the small number of remaining villagers, even after they left, the strength of the crows was completely enough to deal with them. After all, the crow has followed him for many years, and his strength is not much inferior to that of ordinary monsters. These ordinary people could not threaten him at all.

"Let's go." Mo walked out of the village. Obviously, it looked like he was just walking slowly, but after three or four steps, the figure was about to disappear from the sight of Ah Li and the others.

Huiyin shook her head, shoved a palm-sized object into Ali's hand, and left the village with her.

……

The two figures walked and shuttled through the forest, seemingly unfast pace, but they often walked out of a distance of dozens of zhang in a blink of an eye.

"Speaking of which, why did you say that in the first place?" Huiyin turned her head to look at Mo on the side. Part of the reason why she came out with her was so that the two of them could be alone now and ask questions that had been inconvenient to ask before.

"What?"

"About Ali's father and her people." Huiyin's eyelids closed slightly, and her breath gradually became ethereal.

"Why do you deliberately play her enemy, can't you just change it in another way? She's a good boy who understands things, and I think as long as you explain it to her well, she'll understand it. ”

"In another way?" Mo shook his head, "Do you think so?" But in my opinion, I might be better for her. ”

"Is that better?" Huiyin was stunned, and then her expression slowly turned cold, "What you call better is to let her live in hatred forever, watching the 'enemy' at ease every day, but she suffers all day long because she can't take revenge!" ”

"Hehe......"

Mo didn't answer Huiyin's question directly, but asked her rhetorically: "What do you think people, or life, are they for?" ”

Forehead...... Huiyin was stunned, and then said in a low voice: "Don't divert the topic for me, answer me!" You ......"

Mo ignored the suppressed anger in Huiyin's words, and directly interrupted her, "I think people need a reason to live after all. Or for the sake of desire, or for the sake of duty, or even simply the fear of death...... After all, you need a reason......"

"But is there such a reason for her in your mouth? Her father's clan was devoured by youkai, and the barnyard clan existed in name only, and even the only person she had left to rely on now was the cause of the 'Heavenly Demon' who destroyed everything...... Everything that can be supported, can be trusted, and in the blink of an eye, it is gone......"

Looking at Huiyin's gradually gloomy face, Mo continued to speak calmly: "Don't you think that compared to the 'illusion' I mentioned, the so-called 'truth' seems more cruel. Sometimes, 'hatred' is also a reason to live......"

Huiyin's face was already gloomy and about to drip water, but she had to admit that the other party's statement did have some truth. Even she herself felt a little guilty about Ah Li in her heart, and even worried. is worried that after the other party learns the truth, the relationship between the two will leave an irreparable rift.

But...... Is this really what the other person really thinks......

"Hehe, I think you must be wondering if this is my real idea."

Scold...... A slightly playful smile cracked into Mo's face, which had always been rigid, and then quickly retracted and regained his unwavering expression: "Actually, of course not...... How could I possibly care about such a boring trifle......"
