Chapter 171: The Good and Evil of Human Nature

"Are you hiding?" I said to the old farmer.

The old farmer didn't hide anything, and said to us, "Actually, that old lady is also a thing, what can he do... They hid in a ruined temple at the east end of the village. ”

"Who told you to hide over there?" I had a vague sense that something was wrong, but I couldn't tell what was wrong for a while.

"That black-robed man... The black-robed man said, "It is not aimed at us." They have come to seek revenge on the Spirits. The old farmer said.

After hearing the words of the old farmer, Lao Zhu expressed his doubts, "Since it is revenge, everyone has been caught, why don't you leave..."

The old farmer shook his head and couldn't tell clearly...

I didn't speak for a long time, because I knew very well... This black-robed man was none other than him.

It should be the one who took away my mother and Ling'er in the first place...

It's certainly no accident that they're here... Apparently blocking me...

Is it for me?

As she spoke, the peasant woman came over with a few young men. When these people came over, they looked nervous.

However, it was still very polite to us.

The peasant women also apologized to me and said that they should have invited us over just now. Let's not remember the villains...

Apparently the village chief said something to this woman...

We didn't say anything and walked straight to the east of the village...

I didn't go back before I saw a ruined temple... In fact, this temple does not look very dilapidated, but it is overgrown with weeds and wall creepers all over the walls.

There were two big wolf dogs tied outside the temple at this time, and there were bursts of noisy sounds from time to time inside.

The two big wolf dogs were still barking at us, but Lao Zhu directly released a trace of Dao Qi.

The two big wolf dogs were frightened, and directly whined, grabbed their tails, and hid directly.

At this time, a few young people who picked us up directly showed a hint of admiration.

This scene was also seen by an old man who was inside the wall.

"A few must be the masters of the spirit group to pick up." The old man was very old and walked with a slight limp.

He said in a word, who we are.

This made me a little wary of the old man, who came out tremblingly, apologized to us, and then invited us in.

We followed the old man and didn't say much.

After entering this dilapidated temple, the courtyard inside, the temple hall, was full of people...

When we entered, everyone's eyes were on us.

The old man took us aside and started talking to us... What he said was the same as what the farmer had just said...

After speaking, the old man looked at us, and then asked us, "I don't know how many of you are, which one is the leader." ”

And all the people looked at me.

I also took a step forward at this time, and the old man said to me at this time, "This master, can you take a step to speak?" ”

I nodded and followed the old man, who walked to a corner, and then said to me, "Master, you will stay here today, and leave early tomorrow morning." ”

"What's wrong?" I asked the old man.

The old man followed me in a low voice, "The reason why they don't leave, wandering around here... I'm definitely looking for you..."

"Looking for us? How did they know we were coming? I asked the old man.

The old man glanced at me at this time, then lowered his voice and said to me, "The reason why those people didn't leave was because they were looking for something. Second, I'm waiting for you. The black-robed man at the head came to me and said that as long as I teach you out, I can guarantee the lives of our entire village. ”

After hearing the old man's words, I instantly became nervous...

You know, he said so... Either he's pretty sure he's going to catch us...

Either way, he didn't plan to arrest us.

However, you can know it with your toes... We have never known this old man in our lives, so why should this old man gamble the lives of the whole village for us?

My head spun rapidly, trying to figure out how to deal with it.

But the old man grabbed my hand with one hand.

"Master, don't be nervous... I'm old and timid... But I know what is right for... What's wrong... What is good and what is evil... Those people are monsters and evil spirits. Naturally, I won't betray you for the sake of making a living..."The old man said to me with a righteous look.

When I heard the old man's words, I was really moved...

"Don't worry, old man... Since we are here, we will not let the lives of the people in the village be threatened. I said to the old man.

I'm no longer the one I was when I pressed the bell nine, and now even if I face that black-robed man, I believe that I can fight hard.

The old man shook his head vigorously and said, "No... That was not what I meant... I'm telling you this to get you away. I know you're strong, but, those individuals... They're not human at all... You are no match for theirs. Get out of here. ”

Although the old man looks righteous and awe-inspiring, he always feels that it gives me a strange feeling.

I don't know if I'm scared... Because I have seen so much of the evil of human nature... It's hard for me to believe in the goodness of human nature anymore...

"What about you—" I asked the old man.

The old man smiled at me at this time, and then said, "Don't worry, I have another thing they want here... As long as I don't say it, they don't dare to do anything? ”

"Something?" The old man's strange smile made me feel that this old man was becoming more and more mysterious.

The old man smiled at me, but did not continue, and said to me, "Don't worry, I have my own way." You guys, be sure to leave tomorrow at dawn. ”

I looked at the old man and didn't speak.

I always felt that he was not trying to help me, but to drive me away.

I didn't say anything, just nodded and returned to Lao Zhu's side.

They all asked me what the old man had told me, and I said it succinctly.

After listening to this, several people said that the old man was so righteous. We cultivators are originally committed to subduing demons and eliminating demons. If we leave like this, we're going to be punctured in the back.

Only Lao Zhu had the same concerns as me, and asked me, "Did you ask him, what are those black-robed people looking for?" ”

"I asked, but he didn't say..."I said to Lao Zhu.

When Lao Zhu spoke, a pair of eyes stared at me tightly, and then said to me, "Do you think that old man has something to hide?" ”

I nodded at Lao Zhu and said, "This is not in human nature... Even a brilliant person encounters this kind of problem. Won't choose to let us go..."

"And what do you mean?" Lao Zhu asked me.

"Take one step at a time, it's really not good, it's okay to pretend to leave." I whispered to a few people.

At this time, Ran Na said to us, "Brothers, you may be thinking too much, and the old man may just want to help us." ”

We looked at Rana and smiled, but didn't say much... They all meditated on pranayama...

I also deliberately spread my consciousness and listened to all the conversations of the people here.

After listening to it for a while, there was no valuable news ... Apparently these villagers are in the dark...

I was a little curious about this village.

Because of this village, there is no store in front of the village and no store behind the village... Moreover, both the Heavenly Master Academy and the Spirit Group chose this village as the place for the handover of personnel...

Apparently this village is not as simple as I see it...

I can't figure it out... I could only take one step at a time, and after a few hours, there was a sudden screaming sound outside the temple...

Then, I felt a wave of evil in the sky...

A few of us woke up at once, and the old man, supported by a few young people, came trembling and trembling. With an anxious face, he said to us, "A few masters, it's not good for them to come, you go and hide first." ”

As he spoke, a young man made a gesture of please to us...

Fan Jian said at this time, "It's just right for them to come, and I'm just going to kill it." ”

The old man's face was not good-looking at this time, and he looked at us and said, "A few masters, can't... Can't..."
