Chapter 131: Plea of Not Guilty

The horizontal is three meters, and the longitudinal is also three meters, a total of nine square meters of small small ventilation windows open above the wall on one side, and the iron door diagonally opposite, almost no light can be projected in. The only light source in the www.biquge.info room was on the table—the square table of aluminum alloy—it was an LED white light, and countless shiny patches were facing Zhang Lu's face, and even if he squinted his eyes, he still felt that his eyes were sour......

"Tell me about the sins you have done. ”

A hoarse and rugged voice came from across the table. Zhang Lu twisted his body and found himself sitting on a plastic chair, with his hands wrapped around the back of the chair and buckled behind his back by the metal handcuffs, basically unable to break free. He turned his neck and tilted his head slightly, trying to get his eyes around the blinding white light to observe the speaker hiding in the shadows behind the white light.

At first glance, I had the impression that it was a fat man, with a hammery body, a huge face, and a cheek full of horizontal meat. In a trance, Zhang Lu thought it was Lingtai Jun, but after careful observation, the difference between the two was quite obvious - first of all, Lingtai Jun did not have a beard, but the one opposite was full of beard, which was not thick, but the "land" area was quite broad;

And I don't know why, when Zhang Lu saw that fierce face in the shadow behind the strong light, what he thought of in his mind was not a fierce beast, such as jackals, tigers and leopards, or even Tibetan mastiffs and pitbulls, but ...... Octopus? Is it because this guy is as insidious and vicious as the giant chapter of the deep sea? But when I think about this person's origin and deeds, I can't remember it......

didn't hear Zhang Lu answer, the fat man on the opposite side stretched out his hand and knocked on the table: "Speak!

Zhang Lu felt a burst of horror for no reason, but then he grinned, calmed down, and replied lazily: "How can I remember so many people's names......"

"Speaking of which, are you in a lot of blood debts?" the other party sneered, "Repay the debts and kill to pay for your life, do you still want to get out of here alive?"

"Many of the people I killed were already unforgivable......

"Who's going to judge?" asked the fat man with a disdainful look on his face.

"In a healthy society, I recognize order and authority, and I will not easily take the lives of others unless I am in legitimate defense, but ......" Zhang Lu still remembers that the first person he killed was in the Pocket Earth World, in order to save a certain girl, who seemed to be Dong Cheng's daughter, and slaughtered a guy who looked like a soldier and a bandit...... Later, he also killed people in the Tianyuan World, and he also killed people when he crossed over to the other world, but he really didn't feel guilty about it-

"In an imperfect social system, killing people is a helpless thing. I can't convict anyone else, and no one else can convict me of guilt – do you have that right? Does the system you represent have that right? If so, come up with the relevant laws, hold a legal trial, and then ask me. ”

The fat man frowned, and his anger suddenly appeared: "The mouth is quite slippery...... Killing one's own kind is a felony, it's a universal law - and only humans can commit it, animals don't hurt their own kind......"

"Don't talk nonsense," Zhang Lu couldn't help but sneer, "How can there be any universal values in the world that are universal......? For the sake of their own survival, any jackal, tiger and leopard can kill their own kind, which is the universal instinct of animal nature......"

The fat man seemed to have grasped the loophole in Zhang Lu's language, and his eyes couldn't help but show mockery: "That's right, you also said it, for your own survival." Do you kill people for the sake of their own survival? Animals only kill for the sake of survival, whether they are of the same kind or of different kinds, only human beings try their best to rationalize and even legalize killing for their own greed and for the pursuit of purposes other than survival, such as appetite and appetite, such as some kind of pathological pleasure! Do you have no intention of reflecting on this? !

Zhang Lu shook his head: "Even if I kill people for my own survival, I must do it for the survival of others; I do kill to pursue appetite or what you call 'sick pleasure', but this is not detached from animal nature--don't carnivores stop hunting the weak when they are full? If they survive without worry, will they definitely not pursue higher pleasures? At first glance, you don't understand the common sense of biology......"

"Shut up!" the fat man couldn't help but slam the table hard, "Don't make up any more excuses for your evil deeds! Human beings claim to be the spirits of all things, but they base their pleasure on the bones of countless living beings! You can be vegetarians, but you go to kill animals, you destroy the environment, you ruin the planet beyond recognition, and destroy nature itself, this kind of sin, no one can make up words!"

Zhang Lu pursed his lips: "Can't you condemn me, and raise my behavior to some kind of human inferiority or even original sin?" Hmph, the pursuit of more nutrition, better taste, this is the need of evolution, evolution itself is a part of nature. How can we destroy nature? If a meteorite falls, the surrounding natural environment cannot be restored for tens of thousands of years, is this the sin of meteorites? Isn't the meteorite nature? If you want to condemn me, you can, come up with the laws of the human world; you want to condemn mankind unless you are not a member of mankind!

"Oh, that's a paradox. If you are human yourself, then you are not qualified to condemn human beings, and if you are not human yourself...... For example, can humans convict certain animals? Humans kill certain animals because they affect human existence, and they cannot be said to be guilty......

The fat man stretched out his hand and pointed upward: "The gods can judge mankind guilty!"

"Hahahaha," Zhang Lu laughed, "what is God? It's just an imaginary image created by human beings in order to rationalize some of their own behaviors, or to make up for some of their meaningless guilt." I don't feel guilty, I don't need to rationalize my actions, I don't believe in God, what can God do to me? You can take my life, but you can't make me confess any sin that doesn't exist......"

"You should know that God exists......"

"I know that there are higher beings than humans, but they are not gods, just like humans can't pretend to be gods when they treat those low-level creatures!"

With Zhang Lu's righteous shout, the fat man's face began to distort, and then the surrounding environment began to distort, Zhang Lu suddenly woke up from the pleasure of vain tongue, he straightened his waist suddenly, and shook off the fog demon covering the back of his head......

I understand, I understand it all, the so-called fog demon soul sucking is to go straight into people's hearts, dig out the guilt and guilt hidden in the depths of their hearts, and use those negative emotions to disturb people's will and completely crush the other party's confidence...... It is estimated that Jude, the soldier who is lying on the ground and convulsing, has fallen into this state of mental disorder.

But he is Zhang Lu, and his willpower is not comparable to ordinary people or even ordinary cultivators, and he is well-informed, and has already constructed a complete Three Views. Although he has felt guilty for some of his actions, he is far from feeling guilty, and it is impossible for him to inexplicably take the sins of all mankind on himself, as some people do, and then conclude that the existence and evolution of human beings are sins themselves......

Don't talk nonsense, being guilty in the process of existence and being guilty in the process of evolution is not the same thing as being being and evolution being is sin! Most of the sins of human beings come from animal instincts, but they are only magnified by their social nature.

But Zhang Lu still couldn't help but feel a trace of frustration - he actually let a fog demon go deep into his heart, even if it was only for a moment, confusing his mind...... But he knows that manpower is sometimes poor, and a small failure does not negate his own value, so it is impossible to be crushed by this frustration, on the contrary, the frustration inspires him to fight more tenaciously. At that moment, he twisted his waist and turned around quickly, and the brilliance of the long sword "Xuan Ting" overflowed, and he cut off the fog demon that had just been thrown off his head-

Of course, the fog demon's body was just a phantom, and what he cut was mainly the fog demon's ugly head, and the thick liquid spurted out, and Zhang Lu retreated in time to avoid it.

He felt that his movements had been slightly improved by his fighting spirit, and his sword momentum unfolded, and in an instant, he slashed down two fog demons in a row. Because of Zhang Lu's strategy and assistance, Li Yan's super long knife scroll also killed a fog demon......

The surrounding wall of fire began to gradually decrease, and finally the effect of the spell disappeared, leaving only a few puffs of green smoke - it seemed to come from the head of a fog demon who had been kicked into the fire by Zhang Lu - and the fog demon who had been isolated from the outside launched a swift attack on everyone again. But although nearly half of the eight-person team had fallen, the rest of the people had regained their composure, Tang Liyu raised his fists, the wind held his long sword, and even the mage Zimmon chanted a spell again, shooting several ice arrows...... This second wave of fog demons failed to get close, and they were knocked to the ground one after another.

Eventually, the fog enveloped the remnants of the two-headed fog demon and retracted into darkness again. The group breathed a sigh of relief and began to lean down to check on their companions' injuries.

Priest Mather was fine, and he woke up the blonde boy Sauron just in time. Sauron was stunned by the roar of the fog demon, and although he woke up, he felt tired and sweaty, as if he had just experienced a more sinister battle than Zhang Lu and the others—in fact, he had done almost nothing. As for the warrior Jude, the priest was unable to revive him by all means......

"It's too dangerous, let's get out first......" Sauron was frightened and began to retreat. However, his proposal was unanimously opposed by Zhang Lu and the other four-member team, and even the mage was still eager to try it and wanted to go deeper. The priest spread his hands: "I have already used up more than half of my various magic skills, if I move forward, it is estimated that I can only use it as half a warrior......"

Zhang Lu stretched out his hand and pointed at his companions: "There are still four warriors here, and most of the fog demons have been killed, what else is there to fear?"

"Further down, I'm afraid there are more than just fog demons," Sauron said with a wry smile, "I always feel that there are more terrifying beings lurking not far away than fog demons......"

Feng Heran suggested: "Otherwise, you and Qiu ...... This soldier will go up first, stay at the Yongdao crossing, and a few of us will go forward and explore some distance?"

Sauron asked, where are you going to explore?—— "There are thirteen stone pillars here, as if there are twelve passages, and the front is black, in which direction can you avoid danger and find the unknown?"

The mage suddenly interjected, "Otherwise, I'll perform a prophetic spell." ”

Sauron frowned, "You even prepared a prophecy spell, can this spell really have any effect on the outcome of the battle?"

The mage raised an eyebrow, "Try it." I'll use prophecy to determine a search direction, and then you take Jude up first, so that you can recuperate for a while, and maybe you can recover your strength......"

As he spoke, he had already taken out the spell casting materials from the leather bag on his waist, and then closed his eyes slightly, condensed his mind, and muttered a ...... Zhang Lu wanted to try to peek into the mystery of this prophecy technique from the fluctuations of the surrounding aura, but unfortunately he gained very little. After just a few breaths, a faint glow spilled out of the mage's hands, slowly drifting in a certain direction, and then disappeared into the darkness.

"There," the mage pointed in the direction of the streamer, "go in that direction and you should be able to get the desired ......"

Feng asked him, "Whose expectation?"

The mage glanced at him, "Everyone." You should be able to find the remains of the castle lord's daughter, and if anything else you are hoping for, there should be a good chance that you will be rewarded if you follow this direction. ”

In the end, it wasn't only Sauron and Jude who decided to halt for the time being, but the priest Mather also asked to stay and take care of his companions while guarding his little master, who was originally Sauron's deacon, unlike any of the hired warriors and mages.

Only the mage was willing to move forward with Zhang Lu and the other four, intending to search for his own spell used today, and then retreat. On the one hand, this is due to the fact that he himself has not suffered any harm, and on the other hand, it is because "exploring the unknown is the purpose of our Dharma master's existence, and in order to seek knowledge, even if we die, there is nothing to regret." ”

Zhang Lu was still in the first place in the mind-to-heart contemplation, the wind followed with a torch held high, and the mage was basically tied with him, and Li and Tang continued to the rear of the hall. They passed through two towering stone pillars, and the heavy darkness behind them was gradually dispelled by the firelight, and it seemed that the fog demon and the fog had all disappeared. So what's behind the stone pillars? To everyone's surprise, it was—

Wall. (To be continued.) )
