"Everything started because of this mortal, so it might as well end with this mortal."
He no longer pursues Shen Lang's fault, but wants to take action on ordinary people. Qi Hao's statement really seemed to make Li Xuejun take a step back.
But taking a step back may not necessarily lead to a brighter future in many cases. Instead, it is more likely to take a step back to advance, giving the opponent a more fatal blow.
Li Xuejun is so smart. Previously, she was angry because her younger brother was bullied. She couldn't see the key to the problem. Now that she was awakened by Qi Hao's words, she naturally knew what to do.
Shen Lang cannot leave Princess Tongwei alone. Dealing with Tongwei is the best way to deal with Shen Lang...
"Junior Brother Qi said it is absolutely true." Li Xuejun smiled: "We, the righteous monks, gathered together on this trip to deal with evil cultivators. In the face of such a major event, personal grudges should be put aside for the time being, and we, the Qingyun Sect, are the initiators of punishing evil cultivators.
, I am the leader this time, so I should set an example, so on this matter, I am willing to give in and no longer pursue the matter of the prodigal son hurting my brother."
After saying this, Li Xuejun pointed at Tong Wei and said: "However, this mortal in front of me is making trouble, taking the opportunity to commit crimes, humiliating the monks, and should be punished with a thirty-thorn rod."
This simple sentence of taking the opportunity to commit murder and humiliate the monks immediately aroused the resonance of countless monks in the hall.
"Yes! She must be punished!"
"Just relying on someone's support, you dare to humiliate the monks and trample the monks' dignity under your feet. It is simply treasonous!"
What are mortals? What kind of existence are monks?
Mortals below are as weak as ants, but monks soar in the clouds and mist, traveling across the nine heavens.
Ordinary people only know three meals a day, live for decades in a hurry, have nothing to pursue, and are ordinary and mediocre. But monks devote themselves to cultivation and devote themselves to the Tao.
Mortals are like cattle and horses, they need the protection of monks everywhere!
But now the monks who are above the secular world have suffered all the humiliation in front of a mortal, kneeling on the ground and licking the mortal's dirty shoes! This kind of humiliation is simply the humiliation of the collective monks!
How can the monks endure it?
"I don't know how Princess Tongwei seduced the prodigal son! Then she deliberately spilled the tea, pretended to be pitiful, and made trouble... In my opinion, maybe she is an undercover agent sent by the evil cultivator! She wants us to be righteous monks.
Disturb your steps!"
"That's right! With such vicious intentions, a thirty-thorn rod? It's too cheap for her! She should be beaten to death with a rod."
The self-proclaimed righteous monks used the most vicious words to vent their anger unbridled. However, the disciples of Chixiao Peak under Li Xuejun had already taken out the thorn staff.
Seeing the rumored thorn staff, even with Shen Lang's ruthless nature, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
The so-called thorn stick is a tool specially used by cultivating sects to judge evil cultivators. It is made of green pine wood and has thin barbed thorns wrapped around it. When the stick is lowered, the steel thorns on the thorn stick outline the rise and fall of the muscles, and the body immediately
Blood flowers will bloom, and within ten sticks, even the sinews will be entangled into hemp vines...
Even a tough-minded monk can't resist such a painful punishment without clenching his teeth! But today, such torture is being used on a weak mortal like Princess Tongwei?
Thirty-thorn stick! This is not a punishment at all, but to cut the person alive with a thousand knives and execute him in Lingchi!
"Junior Brother Chen, now I have taken a step back and will not pursue your brother's affairs." Li Xuejun sneered and said, "Now should you also take a step back and hand over the mortal princess?"
"Do you think you are taking a step back? Using a thorn stick to deal with a mortal is going too far!" Chen Pipi frowned, far from expecting that Li Xuejun was so vicious.
"It's not up to you whether the punishment is excessive, or we can leave this matter to the parties involved to make their choice." Li Xuejun's eyes suddenly fell on Tong Wei: "Your Highness, do you accept the punishment?"
Princess Tongwei looked at the terrifying barbs on the thorn staff, her petite body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and there was a lot of fear in her heart. But when she thought of the countless people in Qingshui County who had been killed by evil cultivators during these days, she saw the monk
After seeing their fierce faces, I couldn't help but feel a lot of bitterness in my heart.
"The people of Qingshui County who are waiting in fear to be rescued are innocent, and the good people who are willing to help me are even more innocent... Everything started because of me, maybe I should be the one to end it all?" I thought silently in my heart.
Then, Tongwei bit her lips and took a step, "I am willing to admit..."
But before Tong Wei could say the last word 'punishment', Shen Lang suddenly grabbed Tong Wei, walked up and said, "I thought I was already vicious enough, but today I discovered that some people who claim to be righteous
That person’s heart is a hundred times more vicious than mine.”
"She just spilled a cup of tea and was humiliated in every possible way. Now she has to be tortured with a stick of thorns? What's wrong with her? Why do you have to treat her like this? Just because she is a mortal?"
Shen Lang looked at the four characters "Demon Demon Guard" in front of the main hall, looked at the magnificent palace and the sumptuous dishes on the table, and finally cast his eyes on each of the monks.
"But what happened to the mortals? Do the mortals owe you?"
"Which dish here today is not made by mortals? Snow chicken, pork, or mutton are not raised by mortals? Eggplant, potatoes, rice fields, which one is not grown by mortals? What a wonderful palace, but it is also a county king
The talisman made mortals work all night to build it!"
The faces of the angry monks changed, and they fell into silence for a long time as they looked at the half-eaten and half-eaten pig trotters and knuckles on the table.
"Even if this is the case, so what?" Li Xuejun straightened the phoenix hairpin on his head, with a scornful smile on his graceful and noble face: "The monks devote themselves to practice and kill evil. But ordinary people are as weak as ants, and they only know what they are doing when they encounter trouble.
Begging the monks. It’s like this time there are evil cultivators in Qingshui County. In the end, it’s not us, the righteous monks, who have to work hard?”
"Being dedicated to the Tao, being powerful, absorbing spiritual energy to practice? That's really lofty." Shen Lang thought about the various experiences he had had in the mortal world for sixteen years, and the hard-working little people he met in the fields and countryside, and the corners of his mouth
His smile became more sarcastic.
"But where do you get the time to practice? Who gave you the conditions to practice? Are you all gods, and everything you eat and drink is conjured out of thin air? Or do you all only eat spiritual fruits and not steamed buns? In the past, if
Without the silent dedication of the mortals at the bottom, you would all have to feed pigs and geese, and carry manure to farm!"
"You! You are so cruel and shameless..." Li Xuejun, who had just regained his composure after hearing such vulgar language, frowned again.
"Yes, I am very shameless. A despicable and shameless person like me should not stand here and speak some truth to complain for the common people." Shen Lang looked at the gold and jade beads on Li Xuejun's hair and looked at them.
With her extremely elegant makeup, she said lightly: "I just want to remind you that ten years ago, I was a lowly person in the mortal world, but you were just a little mortal, and you were also a maid!"
