Lord God Investigator

Chapter 17 Survival

Meng Xinghun was tied up and escorted to the square in front of the main gate of Xujiabao.

The bloodstains and human body residues on the square had been cleaned away. The villagers from the surrounding villages and forts of Xujiabao were all driven by the soldiers and crowded around the square.

Several braziers were set up in the square, and the blazing flames illuminated a row of kneeling people in the square. Meng Xinghun was kneeling at the front of the row, and Lao Liutou knelt beside him.

Old Liu Tou had woken up from his madness and stopped shouting. He was kneeling there, crying and laughing, mumbling something indistinctly in his toothless mouth.

"The house of fire in the three realms...the world is like an oven...it would be better if we all died..."

Xu Qingsong sat on a wooden cart and was pushed forward by Baoding. Jiang Feng walked majestically beside him.

"Fathers and villagers, I have summoned you here in the middle of the night. I apologize for any inconvenience."

Xu Qingsong said weakly to the crowd: "But today I have to call you to bear witness. Something big happened in Xujia Fort tonight. A group of ignorant people were incited by outsiders to kill the owner of the fort!"

The villagers who had previously gathered in front of the main gate of Xujiabao were only part of the people within Xujiabao's sphere of influence. Old Man Liu only mobilized those whose relatives had been harmed, who were the most oppressed, and who were least able to survive.

Most of the villagers didn't know what happened tonight. They only heard shouts of killing coming from the castle lord's mansion, and finally there was a volley of firecrackers. They hid in the center of their homes in fear, thinking that there were horse bandits and robbers approaching. Come and attack Xujiabao.

Xu Qingsong struggled to raise a splinted arm, pointed to a row of people kneeling below and said: "Xujiabao has always been a peaceful and happy town. What do you rely on to live and work in peace and contentment? It's not the Lord of the fort. Protection? And these white-eyed wolves, who have been wronged a little, will retaliate and are ungrateful and collude with outsiders to murder the Lord of the castle. Do you think they deserve to die?"

The villagers looked at each other. There is no airtight wall in the world. There are many people who are related to each other from all over the country. What happened to the person kneeling in front has long been spread in private, but no people dare to say it in public. They are afraid of the fortress. Zhu An was beaten to death for spreading rumors and misleading the public.

There were whispers among the crowd, and the people whispered to each other.

Xu Qingsong's face sank, and he winked at his subordinates. The subordinates gestured to the crowd, and the leader shouted in the crowd: "Of course he deserves death! Everyone can punish those who cheat on others. Mr. Xu is a good person and a good man. God’s blessing prevented me from being harmed by these thieves who killed a thousand people!”

"Damn it!"

"Kill them!"

"It's too cheap to kill them with one knife. I'll chop them up alive!"

Lord Xu nodded with satisfaction, and continued: "I don't know which evil god they worshiped, and what kind of cruel blood sacrifice method they used, but they actually summoned a monster! Fortunately, this monster was afraid of thunder and fire, and was subdued by the fire gun. Otherwise, this monster will kill the owner of this castle and fly to your home to eat your children and suck your blood!"

The soldiers set up Meng Xinghun and displayed it to the onlookers like a fairy.

"Hey! What a bat demon!"

"It's scary. My third boy is on duty in the castle. He secretly told me just now that this goblin flew down from the sky and transformed into a human. It was invulnerable and powerful. It killed many guards!"

"Kill the goblin!"

"Kill this goblin and burn him to ashes before he spreads the plague."

The people who originally didn't believe Xu Qingsong's words started shouting and beating when they saw Meng Xinghun's dress. Some brave villagers picked up stones and threw them, hitting Meng Xinghun.

Xu Qingsong twitched the corner of his mouth, and took advantage of the excitement of the people and said loudly: "Tonight in Xujiabao, we will hold a demon elimination meeting. This bat spirit will be cut into thousands of pieces, burned into a handful of ashes, and then those who attract monsters will be killed. All the evil ones were also sent to the underworld so that King Yama could interrogate these demons and ask them if they had colluded with any other ghosts!"

"Exterminate the demon! Exterminate the demon!"

"God bless you, in this world, monsters have come out to harm people. Fortunately, we have a strong man like Fort Master Xu to protect us..."

"Burn them!"

Meng Xinghun never thought that he was here to punish evil and promote good, and to arrest Xu Qingsong who had done all the bad things. The fact that Xu Qingsong had done evil was obvious, but with his clever tongue and instigation, the knight Instead, they became monsters, and the common people who had wronged them became monsters!

Are these people all hopeless idiots?

Ah Fu's words came to his ears, answering his question: "Did you see it? Did you hear it? History is always written by the victors. Whoever has the right to speak will have the truth. That is, in the future thousands of years later In this world, information circulates at a high speed, and people’s wisdom has long been opened up. However, under the influence of mass media, extremely stupid and confusing views and remarks are still emerging one after another. The most frightening thing is that some people really believe it, and there are many people who believe it!”

Ah Fu continued: "So Mr. Bu can't lose. If he loses and dies, he will be just an ugly bat monster in the eyes of the people. Madmen like 'Bei Chou' will become the idols of Gotham people." , great leader, always correct, always glorious and majestic saint.”

Finally, Ah Fu sighed and said: "Are you mentally prepared to be eliminated as a monster? After you die, Xu Qingsong will be the great demon slayer hero in Xujiabao. From the mouth of this monster, you Saved the lives and fortunes of thousands of innocent people. Old man Liu and the wronged villagers became scoundrels who deserved death. The villagers could tear them alive without Xu Bao taking the initiative."

Meng Xinghun didn't want to be a monster, and he didn't want to die. He had never wanted to live so much.

But how can he survive?

He has lost all his internal strength in his meridians. Although he is protected by treasure armor, it can block the stabs of swords but cannot block the blows of sticks, hammers and lead bullets. Numerous hidden injuries and internal injuries have left him unable to exert even half of his strength. Now he can't even use his hands. Even if a child came to kill him, he would not be able to resist.

Besides, even if he had the strength, he couldn't resist. A thick rope of beef tendon was wrapped around his body, and the more he struggled, the tighter it became. For safety, there was also a ring of iron chains tied around the rope. Not to mention the seriously injured man, even he in his prime could not break free.

The only good thing is that the armor and helmet were not stripped off. It's not that Master Xu doesn't want to peel it off. This armor is very weird. It has a one-piece design and has buckles to lock it in place after it is put on. Unless the person wearing the armor wants to take it off, it won't be able to be peeled off by others.

The armor was so strong that it was difficult to tear even when using a famous sword as a saw. Someone hit it with a chisel, and when the armor was hit so hard, lightning emitted from the armor, causing the person to convulse and fall to the ground. Lord Xu struggled for a long time and was unable to do anything. He had no choice but to tie Meng Xinghun into a rice dumpling with beef tendon ropes and iron chains, and stopped thinking about the treasure armor for the time being.

Xu Qingsong thought that this was probably a magic weapon, with the ability to identify its owner. The owner could not be deprived of it until he died. He would try it after killing the weird bat.

Meng Xinghun calmed down, as absolutely calm as when he was preparing for the assassination. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and his eyes shone brightly, observing every detail and thinking about every possibility.

He was as dedicated as he was when he killed people, but this time it was not for killing people.
