Chapter 195 The thief shouts to catch the thief
Xuanzheng Hall is filled with fishy blood. The beams, pillars and walls of the hall are full of splatters of blood and flesh. Blood gathers on the ground into a blood pot. The limbs of the demons are soaked in the blood pots, and there are piles of colorful organs flowing out of the demons' cut-out body cavity.
The Heavenly Ghost Emperor sat dejectedly on the steps in front of the imperial throne. Just now, all the civil and military officials in the court who had been enthroned for less than two days were killed, and even one of them escaped.
During the court meeting, there were more than 200 monsters in the hall. When they went to court, everyone was still lively and discussed food topics with laughter and joy. Now there are only four demons left, and the rest have become fragmented corpses.
Apart from her and the little snake spirit entangled on the waist of the Jiujianxian, there were only her daughters and Emperor Tianchi. The brother and sister were hugging each other and trembling, fearing that the powerful humans who were red-eyed would kill them.
Luo Feng said that he wanted to kill a group of demons who had eaten human flesh was not just a statement. After discussing with the Jiujianxian, the next moment, the two of them took the lead and led Li Xiaoyao and Jing Xiaolou to kill each other in the hall, and even the wolf demon squatting at the door guarding the door was not spared.
These monsters died without any wickedness. If they could gather around the Heavenly Ghost Emperor, they would naturally be very strong. The monsters with some status among the demons are the dignitaries among the demons. They will benefit from the human race they captured first. Each demon has eaten at least one person.
Luo Feng killed them to silence them. The pitiful look of the Emperor of Heavenly Ghost kneeling to Luo Feng to pray for his fate was seen by them. If it was spread, there would definitely be monsters with a little brain that were slightly more intelligent to notice that the situation was not good and incite other monsters to escape from Chang'an.
After strangling the last tiger demon to death, Luo Feng threw the body down and walked towards the Liangmei and Tianchi Emperor who were hugging each other in blood.
At this time, Luo Feng's monk's robe was stained with demon blood and changed color, and his whole body was covered with a black aura. It was the gathering of the evil spirits of the demons he strangled to death. He looked murderous, like a god of killing.
The killing god approached the little brother and sister. It was terrible that they were scared and thought they were going to attack them, so their bodies trembled even more intensely.
The Emperor of Heavenly Ghost rushed over, regardless of the blood on the ground, knelt at Luo Feng's feet and cried and begged: "Please don't kill them, they are still children!"
Luo Feng ignored those who were not, and ignored her, and narrowed his eyes and wandered back and forth between Liangmei and Tianchihuang.
After staring for a moment, Luo Feng approached again and sniffed his nose and sniffed. When he sniffed the Liangmei, he showed a faint smile.
"You...what do you want to do..."
Liangmei is a cute girl with two ponytails. He leaned closer to her and sniffed her around. She felt bored but didn't dare to scold her. She just said in a weak voice.
“It tastes pretty good.”
Luo Feng responded casually, and the Tiangui Emperor's face turned pale suddenly. He tried hard to make a smile and said in a trembling voice: "Zen Master... She is still young and doesn't know anything. What do you want to do? I'll do it."
Luo Feng frowned and scolded, "What are you thinking! I mean, your son and daughter have never eaten human flesh and there is no smell on their bodies! Look at you, I don't know how many people you have eaten, and the rotten aura on their bodies is rushing to their noses! They are not on the killing list, but you are the ones that should be killed!"
The Emperor of Heavenly Ghost shrank his neck and realized that he had a wrong intention and said, "Don't kill me, I'm willing to work hard for the Zen master, so I can do anything."
"you?"
Luo Feng curled his lips disgusted and said, "There are fragments of cannibalism in the genes, and they don't even have the qualifications to breed and give birth to babies. What's the value of being a cattle or a horse?"
The Emperor of Heavenly Ghost quickly defended himself: "I am not born to like eating people. In fact, I don't like the taste of human flesh at all. I always eat it with my nose pinched."
"Oh?" Luo Feng suddenly became interested and asked, "Isn't it because of his nature? I thought it was determined by genes."
The Heavenly Ghost Emperor said aggrievedly: "I ate people because I was cheated. I was detained in the Demon Locking Tower, and I heard rumors that just by eating a thousand demons or a hundred people, I could get the power to break through the seal. Now think about it, this rumor is probably spread by the Shushan School, with the purpose of tricking us, the demons imprisoned in the Tower, to erode ourselves and reduce our number."
Speaking of this, she whispered: "After breaking through Chang'an City, new rumors emerged, saying that eating humans with wealthy destiny can bring good fortune to those who are eaten... They also said that the high-ranking officials and nobles have a good life and the meat has excellent texture, but in fact, is there any effect after eating it? The fat meat is also very greasy and very unpalatable. Therefore, we held a court meeting to discuss how to cook so that the taste can barely be eaten."
Jiu Jianxian wiped the demon blood stained on his body and walked over. When he heard the words of the Heavenly Ghost Emperor, he said, "So, is the demon eating people so much because he believes in rumors? Master Luo, your rumors have caused a great sin!"
"Bah, people can eat randomly, and they cannot speak randomly! Do you have any evidence to prove that the rumor was made by me?"
Luo Feng flatly denied: "I made an agreement with the Emperor of Heavenly Ghost. The content was to exchange Kong Phosph's head for the demon army and not eat the common people. But the demons took a different approach and believed the rumors of a certain improper ghost. It was time for you to eat the rich and powerful. However, your Shushan Sect is also suspected of spreading rumors in the Demon Lock Tower. Those monsters who escaped from the tower were eating people randomly because they were influenced by the rumors. Your Shushan Sect is the initiator!"
The Jiujianxian didn't expect Luo Feng to turn the blame on the Shushan School for the origin of the rumors of cannibalism. He was choked and could not speak.
Why do demons eat people?
This question is complicated. There are indeed some monsters, as Luo Feng inferred, that there are fragments of cannibalism in the genes, such as some mantids, spider spirits, jackal monsters, rocs, and peacock monsters. These monsters are born with humans in hunting recipes. They must eat people to obtain the necessary nutrition for growth.
There are also some monsters who eat people because they lack food. There are few animals on the Central Plains, with the most people. It is best to catch them. So they naturally choose humans as complementary food.
Finally, he believed the rumors and believed that the monsters who can nourish the kidneys and strengthen the aphrodisiacs. Although there were neither scientific principles nor practical results, he could not resist the fools who were willing to believe that the Heavenly Ghost Emperor was the best among them. Because he believed the rumors, he even ate the same kind of the Heavenly Ghost clan, let alone occasionally eating them for a few people to try them out.
The rumor that eating people can nourish the kidneys and strengthen yang is like the rumor that eating Tang Monk's meat can lead to immortality, and its origin is very suspicious.
If you have serious research, the rumor that eating Tang Monk's flesh and immortality is likely to be the Heavenly Court or Buddhism. The Heavenly Court plans to make trouble for Buddhist scriptures, while the Buddhism wants to make up for the 9981 difficult numbers. Both have motives for committing crimes.
The rumor that the immortal sword world eats people and strengthens aphrodisiac originated in the Demon Lock Tower. The Demon Lock Tower has been under the complete control of the Shushan Sect since five hundred years ago. It has fabricated rumors that eating a thousand demons can break the tower. This is of no benefit to the demons imprisoned in the Demon Lock Tower, but it is greatly beneficial to the Shushan Sect to control the number of demons.
In this way, the Shushan Sect seems very suspicious. Although the Jiujianxian didn't know the truth, he was a little doubtful if it was created by a senior leader.
What is even more suspicious is that the rumors of eating a thousand demons and the rumors of eating a hundred humans spread at the same time. On the one hand, it lures the demons to devour themselves, and on the other hand, it seems that they are deliberately deceiving the demons to do evil in the world, aggravating the conflict between the demons and the human race, causing both sides to kill each other, and some forces can be reconciled. The demons will help the human race, and the human race will help the demons and reap the profits.
Every few years, some troubles will occur in the Demon Lock Tower, and a group of demons will always escape. These demons will hear rumors in the tower and spread to the outside world, which will gradually form a situation where demons generally hunt humans.
Luo Feng pointed out this suspicious point. Jiu Jianxian was guilty and did not dare to answer the conversation. He was afraid that he would ask the truth, so he dug out some evidence from the demon lock tower. He could only keep silent and no longer pursue who spread the rumors that the rich and powerful people were even stronger.
