God's grace (22)
"Where are you taking us?"
The corridor gradually became deeper, and the columns with exquisite totems neatly arranged at the ends, twisted bodies, holy aura, and dazzling literary patterns were hideous and had a strange beauty.
Xia Lingge, Si Cheng and Shen Yu followed Zhou Wei on this corridor, the light became more and more dim, near the end, Zhou Wei pushed open the closed complicated door, there was no light in the gray room, Zhou Wei used the candle stand in his hand to light the candle next to it, the light flickered, and the room soon became bright, the sacred statue sat cross-legged in the lotus seat, different from the statue enshrined in the temple, the idol here has closed eyes, and the color is relatively dull as if it has not been cleaned for a long time.
The rest was a table with a clean tablecloth, only half of a piece of barbecue that had long since run out of heat, half black and half white beads, a new red liquid in the cup, and only two candles that were about to burn out.
It's like a restaurant, and it's someone's private restaurant.
Xia Lingge approached the table and looked at the food on the table, if the horror factor is removed, then these things correspond to steak, red wine, and fruit...... It's not the same as the whole canteen of the saints.
"What are you bringing us here for?" Si Cheng asked Zhou Wei, and Xia Lingge and Shen Yu also looked at her.
Zhou Wei stood next to the candle stand, the jumping and flickering firelight reflected her face brightly and darkly, and she hooked the corners of her mouth to show a sarcastic and disdainful smile, "You'll know right away." β
There was a sound of footsteps in the distance, very messy, very noisy, as if a bunch of people were hurrying over, as if something big had happened.
Zhou Wei snorted coldly again, her eyes suddenly became frightened and uneasy, she screamed in fear and collapsed directly on the ground, her body trembling, as if she had been greatly frightened.
Si Cheng was a little stunned, but Xia Lingge and Shen Yu quietly watched her act. After a while, many believers and saints gathered at the gate, and at this time, Zhou Wei grabbed one of them as if she saw some savior, and shouted: "They ...... They killed the chanter, they killed the chanter! β
The eyes of all the believers were staring at them, Xia Lingge and Si Cheng's expressions were clear, and Shen Yu even became a little excited. Their state was even more excited than when they had just finished killing someone, and those believers looked at Zhou Wei with unkind faces, and said, "Tell me what you see." β
Zhou Wei was a little stunned by the state of the two people, they were not anxious and anxious after being framed, and the eyes that looked at her were even a little interested, Zhou Wei swallowed her saliva and turned her head and said: "I, I saw with my own eyes that they killed the chanter, saying that they wanted to take his place, by the way, they hid the body under the dining table, don't believe you go and see." β
One of the believers ran under the table and saw a shriveled corpse, and the believer glared at them in horror: "What else do you have to say now?!" β
Xia Lingge also glanced at it: "What is there to say?" If there is a corpse under the table, it only proves that someone hid the corpse under the table, but how can this alone prove that we are the murderers? Got a brain? β
"You ......"
The believer frowned.
"You want proof, don't you?"
A voice suddenly came from behind the crowd, and all the believers avoided a road, Zhang Peng walked slowly in a white robe, he stood in front of everyone and threw the Baixi in his hand unceremoniously, "This is the evidence." β
He stared at them: "She is with you, she has confessed to herself, you have discussed the torture and murder of the reciter, and you are mad enough to make food and drink with the flesh and blood of adults, this matter will not be tolerated." β
The believers behind him instantly became agitated, Xia Lingge and Si Cheng looked at them with some vigilance, in case those who had already been brainwashed into fanaticism suddenly attacked, but Shen Yu sighed lightly and sighed with a little excitement: "This is a good idea, why didn't I think of it before?" β
Xia Lingge glanced at him indifferently.
Zhang Peng turned to all the believers behind him and said, "The most loyal people of the gods, they killed the people we worship the most, the most faithful envoys of the gods, as a member of the temple, can we bear to watch these bloody people destroy our homeland!" β
"We're going to kill them, kill them in the most brutal way, and we're going to let everyone know that no one can destroy our gods! Our homeland! β
It can only be said that they are worthy of being believers who have been brainwashed by the Divine Sect, hearing Zhang Peng's high-pitched oath, their eyes became extremely excited and scorching, just like staring at the demons who replaced the dead ghosts, and their eyes fell on Xia Lingge and them.
"Kill...... Kill...... Kill! β
They pounced.
Xia Lingge had already prepared, as soon as the dagger in his hand fell, several monsters fell under his feet, Si Cheng hurriedly went over and pulled up Baixi, Xia Lingge quietly looked at the believer monster who didn't speak, just kicked and pounced.
"It's amazing." Shen Yu jumped to the edge of the window at some point, and couldn't help but praise her skills when he looked at her.
Xia Lingge turned his eyes and asked him while destroying the monster: "This is not a reason for you to see the excitement and not think it is a big deal, come down and help." β
Shen Yu shrugged: "Don't, tired." β
Xia Lingge's eyes faded, she turned her wrist and put away the dagger to resist the monster, without the blessing of skills, the concerns of those believer monsters were greatly reduced, Si Cheng and Bai Xi still resisted desperately, Xia Lingge bypassed the monster and stepped on the table and then pounced on Shen Yu, Shen Yu thought that Xia Lingge put away the dagger and planned to leave the two draggers, but he didn't expect her to come directly to him.
Shen Yu's face changed, and he turned around and was about to jump outside, but Xia Lingge had already climbed to his side, grabbed him by the collar and threw him into the monster pile without saying a word, if he couldn't outrun the bear, he only needed to run faster than his companions.
Sure enough, Shen Yu, who was stunned, attracted the attention of a large number of monsters, and Xia Lingge dragged Cheese Cheng and Bai Xi and ran out.
"Ran away......"
Zhang Peng ignored Shen Yu, who was struggling in the monster pile, stared at Xia Lingge, Si Cheng and Bai Xi firmly, and laughed weirdly: "It's okay to run." β
γWarning! Warn! γ
['The Holy Envoy of the Sea of Flowers', the 'Holy Envoy of Books' and the 'Communicator' are suspected of killing the chanter]
[Redefining identity as 'suspect']
[Disqualification from reporting]
It turns out that the system will not reveal the real name either, except for death.
This was Xia Lingge's first thought when he heard the system prompt sound.
"Senpai."
Si Cheng said: "Now that we have become 'suspects', we can't stay in the temple anymore, we have to find a way to leave." β
Xia Lingge remembered the path she slipped back to the castle earlier, pointed in the direction of Si Cheng, and then said, "You go first, I have to go back to the sea of flowers." β
