Chapter 1309
In Zhongyuan Village, in the only office hall, the atmosphere was solemn at this time, and on the main seat, Village Chief Chang's face was terrifying, and all the elders below were in the west.
"Elder Mei, what is your explanation now?"
At this moment, Village Chief Chang threw a small thing from above, and with a dripping turn on the ground, everyone found that it was Elder Mei's personal belongings.
"I don't need to explain anything, it's not my fault that this thing is mine, the other party learned that the house existed and came to borrow it from me, why can't I give it to him? Elder Mei's expression remained unchanged, and he picked up his things from underneath and put them in his arms, before he raised his head and said.
"Smack"
"You connected with outsiders and killed your own villagers, what crime should you be guilty of? As soon as he heard Elder Mei admit it, he angrily slapped the table and shouted.
"I said village elder, how could Chang Raid's death depend on me, they disappeared ten days ago, and Chang Raid died violently after eating yesterday, didn't the doctor say it, it is very likely that he ate too much unicorn meat, which caused this, why are you too lazy to me. Elder Mei stood in the middle, retorting the other party's words.
"That is, if you hadn't pretended to be public and private, and intercepted so much unicorn meat, otherwise such a tragedy would not have happened. The people who were with Elder Mei's accomplices mocked in their positions.
Before this, the village chief clearly told everyone that the unicorn meat had been separated, and there was not a little bit, which often attacked a little, and he found so many pieces of meat in his house, and there were many bones next to it, which were obviously hidden by his grandson, which everyone was dissatisfied with.
Besides, although the people on the other side ran away with cute pets, they had already disappeared for many days, and they blocked the city gate at the first time, turning the village upside down, and there was no trace of any other people at all.
Moreover, the people in the village had not seen them before, so they could basically confirm the doctor's words, that is, they had eaten too much of the meat of the unicorn beast to end up like this.
Seeing everyone's attitude, the village chief was even more angry in his heart, but he knew that he was very angry with the public, but looking at Elder Mei's appearance, he was even more indignant in his heart.
Because when Chang Raid died, he clearly saw the joy in Elder Mei's eyes and the smile on the corner of his mouth, although he quickly covered it up, plus Elder Mei had been opposing Chang Raid's plan for many days, and even secretly obstructing the other party, so Village Chief Chang always suspected that he did it.
But there was no evidence, but in the end, I found this thing in the stone house of my predecessors, but I didn't expect the other party to admit it, and I had no choice.
But Chang Xian's death has completely made the village chief lose most of his senses, it is not only his most beloved grandson, but his only remaining descendant, you must know that your son has already died unfortunately, you must find the murderer to compensate for his life, and Elder Mei, who is against him, is the biggest suspect.
"Okay, even if there are no regulations in the village, but the inheritance left by those predecessors, how do you explain it, it is the only remaining immortal law, and now it is all gone except for some common sense, which cannot be ignored. Village Chief Chang suddenly stood up and said coldly.
"I declare that I am now resigning from my position as Elder May. ”
But before Elder Mei could speak, his companion spoke, and retorted as soon as his words in the village fell.
"Village Chief, I don't agree with this, although the things of the predecessors have disappeared, Elder Mei has a certain fault, but he is not lazy at all, who would have thought that such a thing would happen, if this little thing will let Elder Mei go, I think you have fallen into a state of madness for the death of your grandson, and you can't tell the truth from the truth at all, you know, whose descendants have not died in battle." A person stood up and quibbled for Elder Mei, diverting everyone's attention by the way.
As soon as everyone heard this, they began to talk about it, and even the people who came to the village chief's side felt that the village chief was a little too much and too aggressive.
Since the moment Chang Raid died, Village Chief Chang seemed to have fallen into a state of madness, and everyone was more or less scolded by him.
"Your objections are invalid, you must know that I am the village chief. Village Chief Chang saw that the people around him were against him, his brain was hot, and he suddenly shouted.
A dozen people who had been prepared for a long time walked out of the small hall behind them with spears and looked at them with fierce eyes.
At this moment, the hall was instantly silent, but immediately after Elder Mei's roar appeared in the air.
"Village Chief Chang, you dare to do this, aren't you afraid of everyone's condemnation?"
"I'm not afraid at all, or Raider said it well, as long as there is force in my hands, all opposition will be ineffective, I should have done it a long time ago, so that Raider would not die. Village Chief Chang's eyes were red, looking at everyone below with a look of fear, and infinite pleasure suddenly surged in his heart, this is the feeling of supreme power.
In the past, although I said that I was the head of this village, everyone discussed and decided everything together, and it was a good feeling to have such a majestic time.
Village Chief Chang decided that in the future, these elders could only be their own microphones, and no power would be delegated to them.
It's a pity that when his thoughts were still spinning in his mind, he saw Elder Mei suddenly smash one of his things, making a loud noise, startling everyone.
Then there was a lot of chaotic footsteps outside, and more than a dozen people rushed in from outside, also holding weapons in their hands, led by Captain Qian.
"I've been informed that you have this idea, but luckily I was prepared, otherwise there would have been no surprise if our group of people were killed by you. Elder Mei hid in the crowd and said to the village chief.
"Fart!" the village chief immediately retorted, but the figure also hid behind, not giving the other side a chance.
The men and horses on both sides looked at each other, the weapons in their hands were only clenched, and there was a smell of gunpowder condensed in the air, which could go off at any time.
Only then did a few neutral elders understand that now there were two sides fighting for power, and everything before was just an excuse.
"Village Chief Chang, I advise you to surrender, I will let you spend your old age in peace, if it weren't for Chang Raid's accidental death, how many young men in our village would be killed by you. Elder Mei's voice rose from the crowd.
The truth he said, in fact, under his repeated persuasion and deduction, most of them were disgusted with Chang Xian's plan, and Captain Qian even brought people to support him.
His son had already escaped death once, and could not rest on his hopeless plan of dying.
What he thinks is what most people think, but because of the prestige, they don't dare to oppose it.
"Hmph, think beautifully, you have the ability to come and kill me. Village Chief Chang's disdainful words came from above.
"You—" Elder Zhengdao Mei was about to say something when a voice interrupted him.
"I'm not here at the right time. ”
At this moment, a lazy voice suddenly came out outside, and everyone looked back and saw that it was the two people who had disappeared before and the cute pets in the village.
In his hand he dragged four large bags, the length of a man, and from the outside there were still some undried blood stains, I don't know what was inside, it looked very full.
"What are you doing here, did you secretly kill Xi'er? Village Chief Chang's voice sounded from above, and there was a kind of anger that was about to be irrepressible.
"Why did I kill him? Does he deserve it?" Gu Zheng said disdainfully, as he left all the things in his hand on the ground, and the rope tied to the gold of the two bags fell, and a corner of a familiar creature leaked out.
"This is?" Elder Mei was also shocked when he saw Gu Zheng, and he didn't know why he had to come back after he left.
"You just open it and you'll know. Gu Zheng said indifferently.
Soon, a person next to him acted under the signal of Elder Mei, first opened the first two loose pockets, and two hideous beast heads appeared in front of everyone, although they had been dead for many days, but the mighty huge body slipped out of it, which still made everyone tremble.
Even the villager who opened the bag was startled, his hands trembled and he didn't have the slightest strength, and he couldn't open the next bag.
"I'm coming!" Captain Qian stepped forward and pulled the man away, and he quickly stepped forward to untie the third bag, which made everyone exclaim.
"Could this be—" One person said subconsciously, and the thought also came to the minds of the others, all holding their breath as they watched as the former captain prepared to untie the last bag.
And Captain Qian's breathing at this time was also short, and when he untied the straps on it, his hands trembled and he couldn't get it for sure.
"Frost, why did you tie the bag so tightly, you didn't see it so hard, and you didn't go to help. Gu Zheng said deliberately when he saw this scene.
"Oh, Childe, I was wrong. Shuang'er pouted and said aggrievedly, but her body was still ready to step forward, this was obviously done by yourself, so you have to blame me.
"No, I can. Captain Qian stretched out his hand to stop Shuang'er, then suddenly took a deep breath, took out the bone knife on his waist, and a cold light swept through the air, and the things in his pocket instantly slipped out and appeared in front of everyone.
"Green Beast!"
"Sure enough, it was. ”
"Didn't you see that he was carrying four bags at a time, very relaxed?"
Everyone was shocked, and they were all there to keep talking and exclaiming.
"For your sake, don't take any chances, I'll bring you back what you want, see if your legend is true, and save innocent villagers from being killed or injured. Gu Zheng still said in that relaxed tone.
"Captain Qian, you take these four guys to the back for a trip, and ask Elder Chang to eat once to know if we are right. Elder Mei said with a sneer.
This kind of rumor is obviously to appease the people here, if you can, as he said before, the ancestors have already cultivated spells, and they are much more powerful than them are now.
Soon, most of them carried these demon beasts out of here, and Village Chief Chang also put down the weapons in his hands.
They are self-aware, and the people who can kill these demon beasts, even if they are several times over, they can't defeat each other.
Everyone fell silent, waiting for the results to follow.
The elders quickly sat down in the chairs next to them again, after all, they were too old to stand for long.
However, they didn't have to wait long, and after only an hour, four steaming bowls were served, and the smell of large pieces of meat filled the small living room, making everyone drool unconsciously.
The four bowls were placed in the middle, a stone table that had been temporarily moved from the side, and Elder Mei and several other people, Elders, and even Captain Qian were all surrounding here.
"Village Chief Chang, come down and try it and see if you can learn spells. Elder Mei sneered there.
"Hmph, I won't eat it, maybe it will only work for those who can master the power of darkness. Over there, the village chief still didn't give up and said, but he didn't come out.
"Don't worry, I'll have those treasures sent over, and we'll know the result later." "Elder Mei knew that the other party would say this, and he had already arranged it.
"However, you must not eat too much, the province is being stripped to death, the energy contained in this demon beast is beyond your imagination. Seeing that the other party was about to speak, Gu Zheng said lightly on the side.
Obviously, the ancient dispute was aimed at the village chief Chang and slandered himself.
Someone has just complained about what he has been doing these days.
It turned out that Gu Zheng's departure did not attract anyone's attention, except for Chang Xun and Elder Mei, even Han Xiu had already prepared, and after seeing the empty house, he went back.
However, Chang Zheng felt that Gu Zheng was afraid of him, so he sneaked out, and even more decided to hunt other demon beasts, and forcibly selected some elite strong ones from the young and strong.
Although most of them were unwilling, but with the support of the village chief, they also dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, and under the high-intensity training of Chang Raid every day, even a few of them were injured as a result.
Originally, he planned to act in half a month, but at that time, Chang Zheng's arm was almost the same, and he was completely ready to go, because he was a little impulsive by Gu Zheng.
Originally, he had some plans in mind, but he wouldn't implement them so quickly, and he originally wanted to wait a few years to bring this thing up.
But yesterday, the Chang Raiders, who had just finished eating, began to train in an open field in front of them as usual, but suddenly they vomited blood from their mouths, and before everyone could understand what was happening, they lay down on the ground and lost their breath.
Several doctors in the village examined, and did not find out what the situation was, no poisoning, no external injuries, and finally agreed that it was caused by excessive qi and blood, and finally found a lot of unicorn meat in his house, which proved their judgment.
This made the village chief Chang so mad, his most beloved grandson died like this, but he didn't believe the doctor's statement, and always suspected that someone had killed Chang Xian.
Although everyone understands his mood a little, he can't just throw water on them, and now he even threatens them with force, and suddenly loses everyone's trust.
So after hearing Gu Zheng say this, one of the people in front of him said with a smile, "Don't worry, I still want to live some thoughts, just taste it." ”
Completely ignoring the dark face of the village chief, he immediately ate a piece of meat in turn and drank a sip of soup each.
Waiting for them to finish eating, the others also stepped forward to experience the deliciousness of the other concentrated demon beasts, and they were proud enough to eat these.
"Do you feel any way?" Gu Zheng asked curiously on the side, no one closed his eyes after eating, and his face showed a look of enjoyment.
"How to say it, there is a warm current that keeps wandering in the body, but it is much worse than the effect of the unicorn beast, maybe it is too little food, and as for what can be said to be able to feel other differences, it seems that there is nothing. Elder Mei smacked his lips on the side and said.
The others also expressed their feelings, in short, it was similar to his, and it was not as evil as the legend, which also disappointed them a lot.
And the village chief Chang above had already stood up, with a calm face and didn't know what he was thinking.
The things on the table, you take a bite and I take a bite, and they will be divided quickly.
Only at this time did Elder Mei snort lightly and said to the village chief Chang above, "Now you have something else to say, don't deny it by saying that you didn't eat it yourself, there is more to come." ”
And Village Chief Chang didn't answer his words at all, just looked straight outside, as if waiting for something.
Of course, Elder Mei knew his thoughts, so he didn't say anything more to him, and continued to talk to the elders next to him, and everyone was waiting for the feedback from the people over there.
After waiting for half an hour, two figures outside slowly walked towards here.
Dressed in a pure black robe, although it looked a little shabby, it was still one of the finest clothes here, and there was also a black pocket on his head, and the black light veil shrouded the faces of the two of them, but it was vaguely visible that it was a man and a woman.
The two diameters came to the middle of the hall, bowed their heads slightly towards the village chief and elders at the same time, and said in unison, "Leng Rong, Leng Yue see the village chief and the elders. ”
Listening to the voices, it can be seen that both of them are not very old.
"Leng Rong, Leng Yue, have you already eaten what you sent over just now?" Elder Mei looked at Village Chief Chang who was still a little distracted, and simply said in his place.
"Yes, that thing is incomparably delicious, although it is not as good as a unicorn alone, but it still contains great energy, and the four different ones together are enough to surpass the effect of the unicorn beast, which is of great benefit to us. A trace of nostalgia flashed in Leng Rong's eyes, but he still said without humility or arrogance.
With this kind of identity, as long as they are the same age, they will naturally be automatically promoted to the elders of the village, in this, Village Chief Chang and Elder Mei used to have this status, but now their strength has declined so much that they will hardly do it again.
Hearing this, Village Chief Chang's eyes lit up slightly.
"Other than that, do you have any other feelings, such as whether you have made progress in the immortal method you have attained? Elder Mei's voice rang out again.
"Returning to Elder, there is no progress, this thing only promotes the strengthening of the body and the strengthening of the power of darkness, other than that, it has no other effect. This time it was the cold moon who replied.
"Maybe it will take a while to see results. A faint sound sounded in the air, and when everyone looked up, it turned out to be the voice of the undead village chief, but now his face was a little terrible.
"I announce that Village Chief Chang has some mental problems, and I will take the place of village chief for the time being, can anyone object?" said Elder Mei as he looked around.
