Just like walking up the stairs, there seems to be an invisible ladder high in the sky.
"You are mortal!"
Xing Liang said in a tone that could not be refuted.
Li Jun said nothing and looked at him quietly.
Xing Liang suddenly smiled and said: "I never thought that there are anomalies like you among humans. Can I have a chat with you?"
Seeing that Li Jun was silent, Xing Liang smiled.
"Actually, I am also a mortal."
A very simple sentence, but it seemed to be shocking, and the ghosts were stunned. The city god's voice was loud, and there was no attempt to hide it at all.
All the ghosts around him looked at him in shock, except for Meng Youshen, who still stood quietly behind him with no expression on his face.
Li Jun was also slightly moved, but only for a moment. He was not a child. Even if this city god really had his soul stuck in his body, Li Jun didn't think he was his compatriot.
Xing Liang's eyes were deep and he said slowly.
"You must have read my county annals. My name is Xingliang, and I am the Jiuyuan garrison general. When bandits besieged the city, I killed my beloved concubine to reward the army."
"actually,……"
After a pause, Xing Liang suddenly sighed.
"It's not just a concubine, it's a whole city of old, weak, women and children. We ate them all. Ghosts eat people. In fact, humans also eat people."
Li Jun took a step back and kept a little distance. Although this method was not reliable, Li Jun still used it.
Li Jun said calmly.
"But, what does this have to do with me? Lord City God, I am an ordinary citizen, uh... can you let me leave Jiuyuan first? I will definitely read more about your great achievements in the future."
Li Juncai was too lazy to chat with him.
Li Jun could tell at a glance that Chenghuang was indeed a human being, but not an ordinary human being. He also had his soul trapped in his body, and he was practicing in a way that Li Jun couldn't understand.
Zombies?
Is he also a zombie who relies on evil energy to forcibly retain his soul in his body?
After estimating the difference in strength between the two sides, Li Jun found to his dismay that he could not defeat the opponent.
"No, because you are also a mortal, a mortal who can kill ghosts and monsters. Even if I let you go, do you think you can escape?"
"He Bo is coming."
Boom~
Suddenly a thunder exploded in the sky.
In the distant depths of the Wei River, a tall figure sat on a throne, his eyes like two big lanterns.
The body exudes a powerful aura, the waves of the Weishui River surge into the sky, countless fish and shrimps turn white, and the wind and clouds gather together.
There was lightning and thunder in the sky, and the clouds were low. In the palace, countless ghost soldiers and ghost generals were prostrate on the ground, shivering.
He Bo, revealed his true form today. How many years has it been? When was the last time He Lord revealed his true form?
Ouch ouch~
He Bo raised his head and roared, swung his tail, and his huge body broke through the palace, rushing towards Jiuyuan with the wind and lightning. Along the way, thunder and lightning followed, and on the ground, whether they were animals, mortals, or ghosts, they all
I felt a terrifying pressure.
He Bo was in such a hurry that he had no time to lead his generals to follow him.
At this time, Jiuyuan County.
Xing Liang made a gesture of invitation.
Li Jun and Gou Da looked at each other and followed the city god with Yaya. Li Jun obviously noticed that something was wrong in the atmosphere.
The ghosts and monsters behind Xing Liang all looked at them with strange expressions, as if they were afraid and disgusted.
Xingliang, are you crazy?
Even if you are really a human being, enduring humiliation and lurking in the world of ghosts and monsters for so many years, why do you suddenly stop pretending?
Li Jun kindly reminded me.
"Actually, you can tell me secretly."
"It's not necessary. He Bo is coming. I can't control Jiuyuan's affairs. I guess it's Ma Ma who is behind this. He has noticed my abnormality for a long time, but he can't grasp the handle."
"Didn't you expect that he would cooperate with Ji Tao?"
By the way, why did you have sex with Ji Tao?"
Li Jun didn't hide anything. There was no need to hide some things. He picked up some things that were not very important and told them to Xing Liang. At the same time, he also paid attention to Xing Liang's expression at all times. If anything was wrong, he would take action immediately.
Although Li Jun is not as strong as Xing Liang now, he has a bronze halberd in his hand. It is said that whoever touches this weapon will die. I wonder what kind of sparks will be triggered when it touches Xing Liang?
Li Jun has always been wary of this guy.
When Xing Liang told him that he killed his beloved concubine to reward the army, and killed all the old, weak, women and children in the city for army rations, his tone was very calm, and seemed to be vaguely excited or complacent.
It can be seen that this is an inhumane person who is still trying to gain fame and reputation, thinking that he is great, but in fact he is just killing people.
This kind of person is called a hero.
Although Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty killed his brother and forced his father, causing endless killings, he still lived in deep guilt. He was a hero.
Perhaps Xing Liang really has the desire to save mankind and lurks alone among the enemy, like a lone hero, which is worthy of admiration, but... this does not mean that he has no murderous intention towards Li Jun.
What if he doesn't want to save the world with Li Jun, but just wants to save the world by himself, and gets close to Li Jun, but wants to find out the secret of the bronze halberd?
With deep vigilance, Li Jun and Xing Liang chatted while walking. On the surface, it looked like a meeting between long-time friends.
Xing Liang took Li Jun to the Chenghuang Temple.
On the surface, this is an ordinary City God's Temple. There are people kneeling outside to burn incense. These people have just experienced a strange event. They don't know what happened, so they can only come here in fear to burn incense and pray for blessings.
But when he stepped inside, the space changed instantly, and Li Jun entered a magnificent building. This is the real City God's Mansion.
Rather than the City God's Temple.
Xing Liang drove away the ghosts.
Only Meng Youshen was left to guard.
"I wonder what I call my little brother?"
"Li Jun."
Xing Liang nodded, turned around slowly, stared at Li Jun and asked, "Do you know what this world is like?"
Li Jun smiled: "People of the Ming Dynasty don't tell secrets. I saw you harvesting grain the day before yesterday, and an acquaintance of mine was also harvested by you. His life and death are unknown to this day. I don't know whose belly he got into?"
"There are all the people in this city, but they were turned into walking corpses by your Peach Blossom Lady. Lord City God, what is the difference between you and the ghosts in this world?"
Li Jun's words were full of sarcasm, but Xing Liang was not embarrassed.
He said easily.
"The life of one person, the life of a city, is nothing compared to the blood feud that I, a mortal, have endured for thousands of years."
"Back then, I was born in a humble position and saw too many people die miserably. Back then, the city was filled with dead people, and I could only defend the city. How tragic and heroic!"
"I have made a grand oath since I was a child to serve the common people. Even if I betray my conscience, I will not betray my oath."
"I only love my concubine, death is not a pity."
Xing Liang opened the window and looked at Jiuyuan County in the distance. At this time, Jiuyuan County had long become a dead city.
