Chapter 575: Autophagy
Mu Yuan carefully lifted a tile on the roof in a very obscene way, revealing a little gap, leaned over and peeked down, and saw the middle-aged man with a bad face sitting in the middle of the hall just now, and there were a few other slightly younger men standing in front of him, the middle-aged man had white temples, obviously his face was a little vicissitudes, and he was also particular about his clothes, all of which were made of silk, plus this is the largest house, sitting in the center, it is estimated that he is Boss Mu, split the head and cover the face, beat these guys first, and then tied it up and dragged it out, so that Ye Langzhong came back and was impressed.
Seeing this, Mu Yuan was already very sure that these people were not demons, because if they were, their own body of Buddhism and Taoism would definitely have a sense with them, and it was impossible for him to be able to peep for so long, and looking at it, they didn't have any cultivation in their bodies. Mu Yuan secretly guessed that the following people were just ordinary mortals, and nine times out of ten they were in collusion with the demons and outsiders outside, and they would rush down and catch this Boss Mu first.
Just thinking about it, the middle-aged man sitting in the center of the room had already begun to speak, and the middle-aged man sitting in the center opened his mouth to ask, his tone was a little tired, but he revealed more majesty, and asked a few people in front of him: "Let me ask you, how did the splashy skin in the back mountain die?"
The above Mu Yuan was overjoyed, and he didn't ask yet, so the people below said it instead of him.
The men who were asked were hesitant, their expressions prevaricating, and one of them replied stupidly: "It seems to be...... It's like a ...... attacked by a wild beast."
"Nonsense!" The middle-aged man scolded angrily, and suddenly slapped the table and stood up, "You guys are stupid to me? I have already asked someone to go to the yamen to inquire, and the appearance of that corpse is obviously one of you who did it, who is it? The fourth or the sixth? To be honest!"
Several people looked down at each other, and were silent for a long time, and finally a man who seemed to be in his thirties gritted his teeth and stood up and took the initiative to admit: "I did it." ”
"It's a vendetta between ordinary people for a long time. Mu Yuan thought in his heart that it was really a big fuss.
"Sure enough, it's Xiaoliu. The middle-aged man sat down slowly, his tone calmed down a lot, "You should know the rules of the ancestors, even if there are all kinds of mistakes in that splash skin, you can teach him a lesson, how to take people's lives, it is really a sin." ”
The man named Xiaoliu stomped his feet and said unwillingly: "Uncle, now our family's business is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more things to deal with every day, not to mention that there is still such a 'big catastrophe' to deal with now. Recently, I saw that our family had a business in Yingtian again, and now he repeatedly came to the door to ask for property, and he was extremely shameless, this evil is not removed, and it is disgusting like a maggot attached to the mouth, except that he not only saves us trouble, but the people outside are also very happy, shouting that the sky has eyes, what is wrong with such a good thing?"
"It's not a question of 'good versus bad'. The middle-aged man stood up, walked to the place where he was face to face from Xiao Liu, and stared at his eyes seriously, "Your behavior is too dangerous, it will cause ruin to our entire family, there are countless cultivators outside, if any monk is nearby and knows about this matter, it is easy to find out the clues, where should we go when the time comes? Your behavior is too reckless, and you have seriously violated the ancestral precepts, I must punish you according to the ancestral precepts." ”
"What?!" Not only Xiao Liu, but even several other people around him were taken aback, and the other hurriedly shouted, "Fourth uncle, be merciful, even if Xiao Liu is at fault, but he is also dedicated to our own family, the original intention is good, not to mention that the 'catastrophe' is in front, it is definitely unwise to punish him now, let him make meritorious contributions, and wait for the catastrophe to pass before the punishment." ”
"yes......" The others chimed in.
"No!" The middle-aged man was ruthless and told everyone categorically, "Although the catastrophe is ahead, but there are no rules, I think my Mu family has come to this day after three generations, the family rules are like a mountain, and the six nephews 'Mu Lian' violate the ancestral teachings and must be punished, but the current season is special, so the net is open, first self-inflicted a finger, as a punishment, and after the matter is understood, it will be punished in the line." ”
It turned out that this young man named Xiaoliu was called "Mu Lian", Mu Yuan was lying on the roof and nodded secretly, but he didn't understand what "self-phagy one finger" was, what kind of punishment was this? Is it unique to their family?
After Mu Lian, the sixth nephew below, heard the middle-aged man's answer, when the following was like ashes, several other people around him also showed unbearable expressions, as if they couldn't bear to see this scene, Mu Yuan looked at the roof wondering, I don't know what happened to them, just thinking about it, Mu Lian below raised his left hand and looked at his palm, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and suddenly when he raised his head, his mouth cracked, and a mouth full of sharp teeth suddenly appeared, and then he lowered his head and bit down on the little finger of his left hand, which was instantly bitten off, and the blood flowed like an infusion, and now he finally knew that this was called"Autophagy is a finger".
It's just that all this happened too fast, Mu Yuan was stunned when he looked at it, and before he could react, Mu Lian's face below returned to the same as before, but his face was pale, covering his injured left hand, and blood flowed out from his fingers, and the next moment, Mu Yuan's sleeve was full of golden light, and it turned out that the demon suddenly appeared below, touching the book of Kumarosh's "Diamond Sutra" in Mu Yuan's sleeve, which attracted the attention of everyone in the room, only to hear the middle-aged man raise his head and shout: "What person?!"
Everyone in the house rushed out of the house and looked at the surrounding roofs, but there was no one in the house, and one of the men asked suspiciously, "Are we too careful?"
The middle-aged man frowned and looked around for a while, then sighed and said to himself, "I hope." ”
After speaking, he looked back at them again, and said sternly: "I have all remembered our ancestral teachings, that is, 'no monsters'! This is the law of our Mu family's survival, and the punishment will not be so easy next time, and at the same time, pass on my words, all of them have been closed for the past few days, don't cause trouble." ”
Everyone listened to the words and scattered to arrange, Mu Lian also went back to the doctor, and the middle-aged man still didn't forget to look around twice, and muttered to himself: "Is it because I am too careful......?"
At this time, Mu Yuan was blending into the crowd on the street, just now, he flew away in the sky, and now he only feels disgusting in his heart, and he has a faint feeling of wanting to vomit, after all, he is a Buddhist disciple, he has never seen this kind of scene where he eats his fingers, and he can't stand it mentally, so he ran to a tea stall, without saying a word, picked up the tea bowl "Gu Dong, Gu Dong" and poured four large bowls before he came back to his senses, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
I secretly thought that there was really something wrong with this Mu family, all of them looked at it, it was not early, so I hurriedly prepared to leave for Chaoyang Pavilion to turn Chu Xunyu and forget the dust, this time there were really monsters, and there were a lot of them, it was a litter......
