Although Hu Li now looks like she has seen through the world and has given up everything, Liu Xing is sure that Hu Li still likes Hu Cang.
Zhang Jingxu also understood this and said with a smile: "Miss Hu Li, you are right. There is a cause and effect in this world. The reason why Zhong Rensan is like this is largely because his grandfather ran away." They went to rob tombs, and in the end, they were so selfish that they were so clever that the mountain monster entangled their family. However, there is a right to blame and a creditor, and the onlookers like us will not interfere with Hu Cang's revenge on Zhong Rensan."
Hu Li understood what Zhang Jingxu meant. To put it simply, Zhang Jingxu expressed his position on behalf of Liu Xing and others, that is, absolute neutrality. He would neither spread information to Zhong Ren nor help Hu Cang kill The crowd dispersed.
And Hu Li was very satisfied with Zhang Jingxu's words. After all, Hu Li knew that if there were no mountain monsters, Hu Cang could easily kill Zhong Rensan. Even if Zhong Rensan had the help of the mountain monsters, then Hu Cang He also has his own help, so as long as Liu Xing and his party don't favor Zhong Rensan's side, there will be no problem.
Seeing this, Hu Li nodded and said with a smile: "It's great if you think so, but you remember to convince Hu Cang first and let him get it from Zhong Rensan after we deal with the mountain monster. After the jade pendant, I went to find trouble with Zhong Rensan, because Zhong Rensan hid the jade pendant in a very secret place, at least I have never found any trace of the jade pendant. "
"No problem, we will definitely give Hu Cang a good explanation. I believe Hu Cang will put the overall situation first." Zhang Jingxu said, patting his chest.
Hu Li smiled again, nodded and said: "That's very good, then let's leave it like this for now. You have all the things that need to be prepared today. We will go attack the mountain demon at this time tomorrow. As a friendly reminder, you'd better Wear a layer of protective gear. After all, the claws of the mountain demon are very sharp. But then again, I remember there are five of you. Why is there a person named Ishikawa Ling who is not here? Don't say he is not here. I am The entire Panlong Town can no longer feel his presence."
Faced with Hu Li's question, Liu Xing could only bite the bullet and said: "Well, we don't know much about this. Ishikawa Ling suddenly disappeared this morning."
At this time, there was a sound of dice hitting the ground.
Hu Li looked at Liu Xing meaningfully and said: "Oh, is that so? But it doesn't matter. Anyway, as far as the current situation is concerned, more Ishikawa Ling is not too much, and less Ishikawa Ling is not too much." , Okay, I’m going back first, see you all tomorrow.”
After Hu Li finished speaking, she turned around and left.
Liu Xing and others looked at each other, then nodded in unison, turned and left.
Back at Hu Cang's small clinic, Xiao Mochen had already left, while Hu Cang was thinking about something with a solemn expression.
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, feeling mischievous, and stepped forward and said loudly: "Mr. Hu Cang, what are you thinking about?"
Hu Cang was startled by Liu Xing and jumped up.
Hu Cang patted his heart and said helplessly: "Mr. Meteor, don't you know that there is a saying that people are scary, scary to death? Fortunately, I am still young and don't have heart disease, otherwise you will have to meet again at the next time. It’s my turn.”
Liu Xing chuckled and said, "You can't blame me alone. It's not Mr. Hu Cang that you are too obsessed with your thoughts here, otherwise you should have discovered me. But having said that, Mr. Hu Cang, you What are you thinking about now, so obsessed with it?”
Hu Cang smiled reluctantly and said helplessly: "Okay, okay, Mr. Meteor, you are right, this is my fault. What I am thinking about right now is about Xiao Mochen. Didn't he wake up just now?" Memory, so after his mood stabilized, I asked him some things and found that Xiao Mochen could remember things he had done at previous points in time, but these are not important. What is important is that Xiao Mochen remembered it. What happened after Glaaki’s followers came to Panlong Town.”
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows. This was important information, because although Hu Li didn't say it explicitly, Liu Xing knew that Hu Li at that time probably didn't bother to watch the followers of Glaaki playing tricks, so Hu Li only mentioned the ceremony held by the followers of Glaaki. What happened on the night of the sacrificial ceremony, without mentioning what the followers of Glachi had done before.
And now, Xiao Mochen has completed what happened during this period.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing hurriedly said: "Oh, this is a good thing, so Mr. Hu Cang, can you repeat what Xiao Mochen said before?"
Hu Cang nodded and said: "Of course, I originally planned to tell you this after you come back. The thing is like this. When the believers of Glaaki came to Panlong Town, they caused a stir. The attention of everyone in Panlong Town was because the believer of Glachi was a white man. No foreigner had come to Panlong Town for so many years, so with the mentality of watching the excitement, everyone in Panlong Town paid attention at that time. Come and watch the follower of Glachi."
"And this is exactly what the believer of Glacchi wants to see. After all, he is here specifically to preach. The more people watching, the better. So when the believer of Glacchi saw that the time was right, he began to preach. According to According to the Glachi believer, his name is Cross, he is an Englishman, and he believes in a new religion native to England called the Eternal Life Society. As the name suggests, as long as people join this religion, they will naturally be immortal."
"Xiao Mochen, who was also watching the crowd at the time, decided to go home after hearing what Cross said. After all, in Xiao Mochen's eyes, immortality does not exist at all, so Xiao Mochen felt that this Ross is either a charlatan or a cultist who is not trustworthy at all, and other onlookers thought the same, and many were ready to leave."
"At this moment, Cross knew that his empty talk would not win the trust of the onlookers, so he took out a knife from his pocket and inserted it into his heart without hesitation. Then he saw Cross The wound was bleeding profusely, but Cross remained calm and showed the knife on his body to everyone with a smile. Those onlookers who wanted to leave were instantly attracted to him."
"However, as a person who has seen the world in Panlong Town, Xiao Mochen thought that Cross was using a magic prop, which was a switchblade with a blood bag, so in order to prevent other onlookers from being deceived, Xiao Mochen stepped forward to express his opinion, but Cross calmly asked Xiao Mochen to take out the knife inserted in his heart. The moment Xiao Mochen touched the handle of the knife, he knew that this was It’s a real knife.”
"This is because Xiao Mochen could feel the beating of Cross's heart through the knife, and the moment Xiao Mochen pulled out the knife, the blood spattered from Cross's wound sprayed Xiao Mochen's face. At that time Xiao Mochen already had a shocked look on his face, while Cross took off his clothes and showed his wounds to the onlookers. To be precise, the wounds were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye."
"This move of Cross successfully made the onlookers temporarily believe in his ability. In order to further gain the trust of the onlookers, Cross handed the knife to Xiao Mochen and signaled Xiao Mochen to cut directly with the knife this time. Opening one's own aorta, or inserting it directly into one's temple, anyway, the effect of the show will be as exciting as it is. However, Xiao Mochen, who came to his senses, rejected Cross's proposal. After all, if he really killed Cross, Then didn’t I become a murderer for no reason?”
"So, when Cross saw Xiao Mochen's insistence, he no longer asked Xiao Mochen to take action. Instead, after giving the knife to Xiao Mochen, he asked the onlookers present to bring some sharp weapons and took some sharp weapons from his backpack. He directly took out a bundle of money in exchange. Although many onlookers had the same worries as Xiao Mochen, some onlookers who were not afraid of trouble ran home and brought kitchen knives and other things."
"So, what I told you before, Mr. Meteor, happened. Cross chose a sharp kitchen knife and cut off his head with one blow. This frightened the onlookers. , and what a coincidence, Cross's head rolled to Xiao Mochen's feet, and he asked Xiao Mochen to put his head back on his body, and Xiao Mochen, who was already confused at the time, didn't know that he What did you think, actually did what Cross said and pushed Cross' head back to Cross' body."
"Then after a minute, Cross twisted his neck, and then shook his head and nodded sharply to show that his head had been successfully reattached to his body. This scene amazed the onlookers and began to believe that Cros Ross can really live forever, and began to listen to Cross's teachings seriously. At this time, although Xiao Mochen still felt that something was wrong, he couldn't think of a reason."
"I have to say that Xiao Mochen thinks Cross's eloquence is very good, because when Xiao Mochen used to work in Rongcheng, it could be said that he relied on his mouth, and Cross's eloquence really convinced Xiao Mochen. And unknowingly believed what Cross said - as long as you join the Eternal Life Society and become a follower of Glachi, then you can be immortal like me, and you can recover no matter what kind of damage you have."
"As a result, about half of the onlookers present decided to join the Eternal Life Society at that time. After all, the benefits of immortality are too tempting. Even I would have chosen to join under the circumstances at that time. Eternal life will happen, but many people still decide to wait and see, because so many emperors from ancient times to the present have failed in their search for the method of immortality, and Xiao Mochen is one of them."
"However, Cross also expected this situation. He was not in a hurry to let those who were interested to join the religion. Instead, he stayed in Panlong Town to continue preaching. As for the location where Cross once lived, it was in the Black Internet Cafe In an empty house next to it, the original owner of that house had moved out of town, and after a while, Cross finally brainwashed everyone in Panlong Town to become followers of Glachi."
"It is worth noting that Cross never mentioned the situation of Glaki from the beginning to the end. He only said that when everyone went through the sacrificial ceremony to join the religion, they would naturally see Glaki, so everyone followed Cross. Went to Panlong Lake, and then Cross held a sacrificial ceremony. After Glaki appeared, Xiao Mochen saw the black dragon suddenly appear, but at this time Xiao Mochen also lost consciousness."
Hearing this, Liu Xing only had two questions in his mind. The first was whether the knife Cross gave to Xiao Mochen was still there. If it was still there, the knife was probably a prop, and the specific effect should be the same as the one in his hand. The sacrificial dagger is almost the same, but for my group who currently lack weapons, this knife may be considered a good weapon.
In addition, Liu Xing also began to suspect that Cross was a water ghost, because mythical creatures such as the pig-headed butcher and the mountain demon had traces to follow, and this water ghost seemed a bit abrupt, and now if It still makes sense to connect Cross with the water ghost. After all, as a believer in Glachi, Cross must have very good water properties, and Cross lived next to the black Internet cafe during his missionary period, so Cross wanted to control It’s also easy to blackmail the proprietress of an Internet cafe.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing said: "Mr. Hu Cang, can Xiao Mochen still find the knife that Cross gave to Xiao Mochen? I mean at this point in time?"
Hu Cang nodded with a smile and said, "I have asked Xiao Mochen this question, and he said there should be no problem, because he remembered that he had seen the knife no matter what time it was. So he's gone back to look for the knife."
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows. In this case, the possibility that the knife was a prop was very high.
At this time, Wan Zhongshan said: "As for Cross, Xiao Mochen also knows whether Cross has any weaknesses, because Cross is very likely to be in Panlong Town now."
Hu Cang frowned and said with some surprise: "Cross is also in Panlong Town? That shouldn't be the case. I have been in Panlong Town for so long and I have never seen Cross."
Wan Zhongshan first glanced at Liu Xing and others, and after receiving support from Liu Xing and others, he nodded and said: "The thing is like this, we have investigated that the proprietress of the black Internet cafe is controlled by a water ghost, so combined with the current situation From the known intelligence, we infer that this water ghost is likely to be Cross, so in order to eliminate the water ghost, we need more information about Cross, preferably Cross’ weaknesses.”
