Chapter 410: The Truth
Ding Qin was taken aback.
If there really are two people in the Brain Eating Demon, then in the period just now, there will inevitably be children killed!
Without much thought, he suddenly sprang forward.
With him at full speed, Mao Nai couldn't react to what was happening.
He only felt that his body was numb, and he had been caught by Ding Qin. Then, his eyes were completely blurred, and his ears were full of whirring wind.
Being coerced by Ding Qin, it didn't take long for them to return to the city and arrive outside the council hall.
Mao Nai was completely stunned.
He thought that the speed at which Ding Qin chased him just now was already Ding Qin's full speed. But now he found out that Ding Qin had a feeling of catching rats and playing games before.
The speed of coming back is more than twice as fast as just now!
When the two men appeared in the chamber, a woman was crouching next to a child. In front of him was a pool of blood flowing from the child's head, and on the other side was the box that Maona had opened.
Hearing the movement behind, she was obviously startled. When she turned around, she saw Ding Qin carrying Mao Nai, and the knife in her hand fell to the ground with a "ding", and her body trembled.
Ding Qin had never seen this woman before. She was about the same age as Mao Nai, wearing a nocturnal bodysuit, and her figure was already slightly baggy.
"You...... You...... Are you Ding Qin?" she was a little incoherent, and then called out again, "Da Shi!"
What's the big deal?
At first, Ding Qin thought that this woman was sending some secret signals. However, seeing that there was no movement around, he focused his attention on this woman again, "You are also a brain-eating demon?"
Unexpectedly, this woman's tears flowed down directly. "We are forced to be helpless! We only need the last three brains to succeed! Ding Qin, I beg you, let us do this last time. As long as you agree, whatever you want, we will meet them, and even if you make us confess our sins in front of the people, we can do it!"
Ding Qin shook his head, "No, no. ”
His gaze glanced over the children on the ground, the first of whom had been murdered and whose brains had been placed in a delicate jade box beside him, while the second, whose scalp had just been cut open to reveal his bones.
As soon as Ding Qin stretched out his hand, a ball of spiritual power covered the head of the child who had been cut open. "You two have sinned so much, and today is the time to end. ”
The woman knelt forward and grabbed Ding Qin's clothes, "I beg you! We still have a child to save, and these brains are his only hope!"
"You want to save the children?" Ding Qin's tone softened slightly, paused for a moment, and suddenly became sharp again, "But have you ever thought about it, they, they are also children! You are going to kill so many innocent children for your own children? Your children are children, they, the children of these people, are also children! And, "
Ding Qin directly threw the Mao Nai in his hand to the ground, "Moreover, how precious are your children? Are they immortals descending to earth, or are they the reincarnation of the Buddha? You exchange the lives of many children for the life of one of your children, don't you think it's too cruel?"
"We are different, we are different!" the woman's emotions became more and more excited, "We are different! He and I can only have this one child in this life, and if this child dies, we will have no successor! And the children we choose are not only children, they have brothers and sisters, their parents are sound and can still have children! We don't put people in a desperate situation, we just want to keep our last glimmer of hope in this world!"
Can you have only one child? And need this special treatment?
Ding Qin's heart seemed to fluctuate. At this moment, his kind side was involuntarily revealed. So, in his tone, he also softened a lot. "You shouldn't kill anyone, no matter what. You are selfish, cruel brain-eating demons. Not only in the hearts of the inhabitants of this city, but also in your own hearts, one day you will find that you are demons!"
The woman fell to the ground, "But what can we do? What can we do? Can we just let the child we give birth to die in agony? We can't do it." If you have kids, you can't do it either!"
Ding Qin was speechless. After a long time, he said, "I have no right to judge you." Tomorrow, please confess to the whole city. Also, the amount of * that you are using today should be very large, and I don't know if people can wake up safely. If not, then I can only take their place and seek justice from the two of you. ”
The woman said, "Yes, I can." We won't hurt innocent ......"
Speaking of the word innocent, she stopped. In fact, she also knows that among them, those children are also innocent.
Ding Qin saw her contradictions. After giving her enough time to relieve, he sighed, "Tell me, how do you want to confess to the citizens." ”
At this point, Mao Nai on the ground moved. Obviously, he heard Ding Qin's words.
After the spiritual power in his body was sealed by Ding Qin, he didn't have the power to fight back. With a hint of disappointment, he got up from the ground, "Ding Qin, the matter has come to this, and there is no need for us to hide anymore." However, I want you to promise us one thing. ”
Ding Qin responded, "Let's hear it." ”
Mao Nai sighed, "Our elixir is almost finished. This elixir is called the Brain Rejuvenation Pill, and it is the only hope to save our children. Today, we dug up another human brain, but there are still two missing. This is the preparation and refining method of the elixir. ”
He took a sheepskin from his bosom, "I'm sure you can read it." Even if you can't understand it, with your reputation in Baifeng City, you can find someone to understand. Since you have dug it today, please finish this elixir and use it to save our children. ”
Ding Qin frowned, "You mean, you want me to let you dig two more?" ”
Mao Nai shook his head, "No, it's not digging again." Although it is said that the best effect of refining the elixir is the child's brain, if it is used by an adult, it can also have a certain effect. The two of us, the death penalty is unforgivable, and after we die, plus the brains of the two of us, it is just enough to make up the number. Please help us complete this elixir and save our children. ”
Ding Qin was silent.
He knew that these two so-called demons, to a certain extent, were still kind-hearted. It's just that the predicament they face makes it difficult for them to choose.
After hesitating for a long time, Ding Qin nodded. "I can help you. But you have to take me to see your so-called children. ”
Subsequently, the three of them went to Maunai's residence together. In the secret room, Ding Qin saw all his brains.
In the liquid, each brain took on a gray color, making the whole room appear cold and mysterious.
Their children were still sitting on the bed, their faces pained and haggard.
Seeing Mao Nai and the woman, he said in a stiff and muffled voice, "Dad...... Father...... Mother...... Mom......"
After a few convulsions, his whole body trembled and said, "Mom, Dad, Mom, it hurts, the baby hurts, I want to die, I ...... die"
In this situation, Ding Qin couldn't help but be moved.
On the other side, the woman had long since stopped crying. Mao Nai also held back tears, "Now, you believe it." Hope you can help us at the end. ”
Ding Qin exhaled slowly, "Okay, I promise you." But when the people in the city wake up, you two, tell them the truth. ”
"I'm ...... my reputation," Maona said as he realized that he couldn't have any reputation anymore. After being stunned for a moment, he changed his words, "I will use my last bit of life guarantee to let the truth be revealed tomorrow and return your innocence." ”
Ding Qin asked, "When will you be able to lift the * you gave to the whole city?"
Mao Nai said, "This medicine is called Moonlight Heart Dispersion, and it is only effective at night. Tomorrow morning, as soon as the sun comes out, there will be no trace. ”
Ding Qin looked at the night outside, "Then I'll wait until tomorrow morning." As soon as the morning dawns, you two and I will go to the lord of the city and explain the situation to the whole city. ”
The next morning.
Inside the castle lord's house.
The lord of the city had a sad face, for he had just received news that last night, the whole city had been hit* and unconscious. In the chamber. One child was killed for his brain, and the other had his scalp peeled off.
When someone reported to him that Ding Qin and Mao Nai had arrived, he was visibly surprised.
With a hint of trepidation, he said loudly, "Order the guards, line up immediately, if Ding Qin has a violent intrusion, shoot directly, regardless of life or death!"
As soon as his words fell, he heard Ding Qin say outside, "City Lord, there's no need. We're already in. ”
With this voice, Ding Qin stepped into the threshold. To his right and left were Mauna and his wife. The two of them lowered their heads, obviously restrained by Ding Qin.
The city lord's eyes widened, "Ding Qin! You are so bold, you actually dare to hold Mao Langzhong and his wife hostage! I don't allow you to go out without permission, and you also violated the ban at the same time! Was it you who did last night's case?"
Ding Qin shook his head, "City Lord, I think, you think of me too evilly. What's going on, let Mao Langzhong talk about it. ”
After listening to Ding Qin's words, Mao Nai and the woman knelt directly on the ground, "City Lord, the two of us are the real brain-eating demons." ”
The city lord was stunned. After a long while, he stepped forward to pull the two up, "Mao Langzhong, you don't have to be threatened by Ding Qin. Even if we do everything we can in Luwang City, we won't let him tarnish your reputation!"
Mao Nai looked up, "No, City Lord. You misunderstood Ding Qin. He's not a brain-eating demon and has absolutely nothing to do with the matter. I'm the culprit. I hope the lord believes in us. Also, I can tell you everything about it. ”
The city lord's face showed a heavy disbelief, "Really, it's really you?
Mao Nai said, "City Lord, Mao Nai is sorry for everyone. Ask the lord of the city to issue an edict and assemble the whole city in the square. I am ready to confess the ins and outs of the matter to everyone, and then accept the punishment for my sins. ”
