After dismissing the boss who was still talking nonsense despite being worried, Jiang Zhuojun walked alone with an umbrella to the stone house with its roof burned down.
The stone house was now flooded, and the stone steps had been submerged in water. After the fire burned the body parts in the room to ashes, no one knew whether they were washed away by the water or mixed with the soil and sank under the water in the stone house.
Jiang Zhuojun stood alone in front of the stone house. He didn't know how long he stood there. He saw the stone house with a collapsed roof shake a little. Jiang Zhuojun hurriedly stepped back. Under the unremitting scouring of the heavy rain, the stone house finally collapsed. The fallen rocks hit the water, splashing a lot of water, and even formed a whirlpool of moderate size on the water surface.
Something hit his foot. Jiang Zhuojun bent down and picked it up from the water. When he took it in his hand, he found that it was a human thigh bone.
"General," a elite cavalryman ran behind Jiang Zhuojun at this time.
Jiang Zhuojun turned around.
When the elite cavalryman saw what Jiang Zhuojun was holding in his hand, he was shocked and his expression immediately became strange.
Jiang Zhuojun threw the human bone into the water and raised his hand to let the elite cavalry come closer to him.
The elite cavalryman took a few steps closer to Jiang Zhuojun and whispered, "General, what do you want?"
"Go and bring the village's high priest to my room," Jiang Zhuojun said, "be careful and don't let anyone see you."
The elite cavalryman quickly responded with a "yes" but did not dare to ask Jiang Zhuojun the reason.
Jiang Zhuojun left with an umbrella.
The elite cavalryman was stunned for a while. It was said that there were many monsters and demons in the Miao land. He didn't believe it at first, but now that he was in the Miao land, the elite cavalryman believed it. Since they entered the Miao land, each of them became strange.
Jiang Zhuojun returned to his room and sat there for a while before a group of elite cavalrymen came over, escorting the priest from the village.
"Kneel down," the elite cavalry saw the priest enter the house and looked at his general standing there without kneeling, so they kicked the priest hard in the knee, making him kneel on the ground.
"You can step back," Jiang Zhuojun waved at his subordinate.
The elite cavalry took another look at the priest on the ground and retreated.
After the elite cavalry left the room, the priest adjusted his posture on the ground, from kneeling on his knees to sitting cross-legged.
Jiang Zhuojun said: "I came to you to ask you something."
The priest looked at Jiang Zhuojun calmly, as if he didn't understand what Jiang Zhuojun said.
Jiang Zhuojun said: "My men have heard you talking to yourself. You understand me. I don't care how high your status is in this village. You should know that in my eyes you are just a barbarian slave. Don't force me to kill you."
After hearing what Jiang Zhuojun said, the priest said, "Are my chief and his men dead?"
Jiang Zhuojun looked at the priest without saying anything.
The priest said, "Looking at the appearance of the adults, they should be dead."
Jiang Zhuojun said: "Who told you they were dead?"
The patterns on the priest's face were so complicated that others could not tell what the high priest originally looked like. At this moment, the priest looked at Jiang Zhuojun and smiled, and his face looked very strange.
Jiang Zhuojun said: "What are you laughing at?"
The priest said to Jiang Zhuojun, "I know the chief and his men are dead. I know everything about the birth, death, sickness and old age of the people in the village. General, someone has changed your fate, do you know?"
After several encounters with Tian Xingzi, Jiang Zhuojun is now immune to such superstitious talk. "Whether my life is good or bad, you don't need to tell me," Jiang Zhuojun looked at the priest coldly and said, "I just want to ask you, why does a person's temperament change drastically after entering your Miao land, his voice is not like that of an ordinary person, and he can't recognize the people around him?"
The smile on the priest's face looked even weirder.
Jiang Zhuojun said: "Answer my question."
The priest said, "Is this man the murderer who killed the chieftain and his people?"
Jiang Zhuojun said calmly: "Just answer my questions."
"It was the devil who killed the chief," the priest whispered to Jiang Zhuojun.
Jiang Zhuojun clenched his hands tightly on the table, his nails digging into his palms.
The priest rolled his eyes and looked at Jiang Zhuojun, and the whites of his eyes appeared unusually large.
"Demon?" After a moment of silence, Jiang Zhuojun looked at the priest and said coldly, "Don't tell me such lies."
"If you don't believe in ghosts and gods, why did you come to me to ask?" The priest laughed, his laughter was like a night duck, hoarse and unpleasant. "General, if this man is your companion, then you'd better kill him and burn the body to ashes, or nail the demon in that body forever."
"Nonsense!" Jiang Zhuojun scolded the priest.
"This is the only way." The priest still rolled his eyes and looked at Jiang Zhuojun. He was unmoved by Jiang Zhuojun's scolding and said, "I am an enemy of those monks, so I don't want them to get what they want, just like the general."
"What do they want?" Jiang Zhuojun asked.
"Demon," the priest whispered.
"How can a human be a demon?" Jiang Zhuojun asked the priest again.
The priest said, "General, you should kill that man quickly before too many people die."
Jiang Zhuojun didn't say anything, his mind was working very fast at this moment. He was able to sort out some useful things from the priest's nonsense. Gu Xinglang had been tricked by the Temple of Eternal Life.
The priest raised his hand and pointed at Jiang Zhuojun and said, "Otherwise, many, many people will die in the future, and the sky, the earth, and all the water in the world will be stained red with blood."
Jiang Zhuojun said: "You can go now."
The priest said, “Don’t you believe what I say?”
Jiang Zhuojun glanced at the priest and said, "Do you know your fate?"
The priest smiled again, revealing his yellow teeth. He said to Jiang Zhuojun, "I will also be killed by this demon."
Jiang Zhuojun looked at the priest and smiled. Suddenly, he felt annoyed. He stood up and walked to the priest and asked, "Are you so sure?"
The priest said, "General, I can see things that you cannot see, and I also know that there is something that you want but cannot get."
"You said that you and the Eternal Life Temple are enemies. Will you help me deal with the Eternal Life Temple?" Jiang Zhuojun asked again.
The priest shook his head and said, "I can't help you. No one in this world can help you."
Jiang Zhuojun nodded, turned sideways as if he wanted to leave, and suddenly drew his sword again and slashed the priest's neck.
The priest fell in a pool of blood.
Jiang Zhuojun looked at the priest expressionlessly and said, "Who killed you now?"
The priest still smiled at Jiang Zhuojun and opened his mouth to tell Jiang Zhuojun that you are also a demon. You have deviated from the predetermined destiny and you will still be one of the demons that will plunge this world into a sea of blood.
"Someone come here," Jiang Zhuojun shouted to the outside of the door.
The priest fell in a pool of blood and stopped breathing. In the end, he didn't say what he wanted to say. This was his destiny, so what was the point of saying it?
