Chapter 282: The Man Punished by Heaven
Yes, if Qin Li guessed correctly, these guardian talismans on these villagers were actually charms.
The Soul Cup, which is a spell recorded in the Rune Book, but it is a forbidden art.
The reason is that this spell can put everyone's lifeblood in the hands of the caster, and once the person is attached to the soul cup, then it means that all the power of life and death will be in the hands of the caster, and this forbidden spell will not have any disadvantage to the caster, and it will not even be punished by the Heavenly Dao.
But this kind of spell is really easy for people to kill innocents indiscriminately, so it is forbidden for rune masters to use it under normal circumstances, but this high priest directly used this forbidden spell on these villagers, is he also a rune master?
Qin Li was not sure in his heart, and returned to the villager's house where he was staying, Qin Li paid special attention to where he put this guardian talisman before resting.
After nightfall, Qin Li crept here, picked up the talisman, and then saw a hurried figure leave the courtyard.
Yes, he was going to go alone and look at the place where the high priest was.
Today, it was the same as what he saw in his fantasy, and it was really difficult for him to balance his heart, so he secretly came here to run without everyone else.
The bright moon was in the sky, and the bright moonlight fell on him, but his steps never stopped, and he came to this cave in a short time.
Qin Li wanted to take advantage of the moonlight to find out if there was a hidden formation here, but before Qin Li could do anything, he had already been discovered by the high priest.
Looking at Qin Li who was wandering in front of his door, if he didn't guess wrong, the stranger who came to him during the day today was the kid in front of him.
"It turned out to be you. I didn't expect that the people who came to me during the day would come to me again tonight, why did they have a point? ”
"Me?" Qin Li was puzzled, listening to his tone, it seemed that he had already expected that he would come here, but how could he know?
"How is it unexpected? But these are not important, the most important thing is what are you doing with me? ”
Qin Li was also blunt, and directly took out the talisman in his hand and asked:
"This is what you gave to the villagers? Why are you doing this? ”
The high priest looked at the things in his hand with a smile and asked:
"These things are indeed for the villagers, what's wrong? Is there something wrong? ”
"These things can kill them, aren't you doing them harm?"
"Am I harming them? Next time you take the trouble to figure everything out before you say that. I didn't do any harm to them, they did it all of their own free will. Or do you have a way to save the boy who fell into the water today? ”
After being said by the high priest, Qin Li suddenly fell into silence, it is true that they have no way to save people, but this does not mean that he can take other people's lives into his own hands for such a reason.
Even if human lives are saved in this way, it will be so short.
"But your method like this is always against the way of heaven, and you will eventually be punished by the way of heaven. Because you do this, do you know that both of them will lose their lives. Qin Li continued to question.
But the high priest said, "I will never allow such a thing to happen." And isn't the purpose of your coming here today to investigate the dozens of lives that took place before you? How? Do you dare to say that you are not in the same league as those people? ”
It turned out that he had already known about it, so why didn't he come out of it during the day and demolish himself in front of these villagers? With his status among the villagers, he could reveal his face anytime and anywhere, but why didn't he choose to do so?
"You already knew?"
"Of course I know, if I didn't have this ability, how do you think I would have spent almost ten years here? Every year, people like you come to me, and there's nothing new at all. Even I feel a little tired of such days, but after seeing you, I suddenly feel that some things don't seem to be so bad. ”
The high priest approached Qin Li little by little, and through this bright moonlight, Qin Li finally saw the original face of this high priest.
Qin Li couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, and couldn't help but take a few steps back.
"Since you already know that, why don't you do it to us in advance?"
"Why do it? I think your spirit is much better than these mortals, and you will not fail to live up to your wishes. The high priest's slightly scheming eyes directly hit Qin Li's body.
After seeing the true face of this high priest, Qin Li finally understood why he had been lying here secretly, he was originally a person who had been punished by the Heavenly Dao, so there was no way to survive alone, and he had to rely on sucking the essence of others.
And now that he was standing in front of him, Qin Li immediately released a trace of breath from his body.
Spirit. Sure enough, the body of this high priest was burning with countless spirits. This life burns at a rate of 10000 times faster than that of ordinary people, and it is no wonder that so many people die here every year.
"Spirit? It turns out that you are really for the spirit in them. Qin Li exclaimed.
"Of course that's true, otherwise why would I go to the trouble of helping them? This is also the price to be paid for each according to his needs. It's a fair thing, so ......"
"So now I'm here."
Before the high priest's words could be finished, another figure appeared directly in front of Qin Li.
Guan Qi, why did he come here at this time?
"What are you doing here?" Qin Li stepped forward and asked.
But Guan Qi ignored him at all, and came directly to the high priest and said coldly:
"It's up to you to exchange someone else's life for your own, and it's up to you to think of such a way to damage yin morality, and now it's time for you to pay for what you did."
"You're the kid of the Guan family?"
"Yes and what? Now that you've confessed to what the villagers did, what's the matter? Do you have anything else to say? ”
"Guan family boy, do you think in your opinion, it is me who is important, or is Baoyu important?"
"What do you mean by that?"
Guan Qi was worried and unhappy in his heart, how could this high priest know about Bao Yu.
