After roughly sorting out the cause and effect, Su Mu signaled to the bald man Zhao Yongqiang, and under the effect of hypnosis, Zhao Yongqiang resolutely stepped into the range of the statue.
Zhao Yongqiang's action immediately attracted everyone's attention. They seemed to be extremely afraid of the statue. When they saw someone stepping into the range of the statue, they all stood up and kept backing away, enduring the pain in their bodies.
When Zhao Yongqiang stepped about ten meters from the statue, there was a sound of "click, click, click".
The sound of friction between stones was heard, and the head of the half-human-high statue of gods and demons slowly turned to face Zhao Yongqiang. Its eyes, one black and one white, seemed to come alive at this moment, turning slightly and staring straight at the living person in front of him.
A terrifying pressure descended at this moment, and the space around was frozen. The feeling was hard to describe, as if one was suddenly placed in a ten thousand meter deep sea, surrounded by creeping darkness, suffocating, cold, and desperate!
Plop!
Under this terrifying pressure, Zhao Yongqiang actually fell to his knees on the ground, his face pale and his body shaking constantly, almost fainting.
Su Mu narrowed his eyes slightly. He had just performed hypnosis to make Zhao Yongqiang no longer afraid. However, when facing the statue, the surging fear broke through the effect of hypnosis.
"Mortal, tell me the most evil thing you have done."
A deep and eerie voice and a cold and majestic voice sounded at the same time. They were two completely different voices, like an angel and a devil speaking.
When the statue opened its mouth, those extraordinary beings were all terrified. They didn't even dare to breathe and hid behind the pillars to watch.
"I..." Zhao Yongqiang trembled more and more, and his words became intermittent: "I embezzled the money from my previous company and framed others..."
Buzz!
With a strange humming sound, the statue slowly fell silent, and the terrifying pressure also dissipated.
What followed was Zhao Yongqiang's scream: "Ahhhhh!! My legs!"
He screamed and frantically tried to lift up his trouser leg, only to see that the flesh on his right calf had begun to rot.
"He was cursed by the devil." Tie Feng said in a low voice, with a hint of confusion in his tone.
"Among our sins, his embezzlement of public funds is the least serious. I thought he would be cursed by an angel, but I didn't expect him to be cursed by a demon?"
"Who knows? Maybe in the eyes of angels, embezzlement of public funds is considered betrayal, so it is not considered kind?"
"Ah!" Suddenly another scream was heard, this time from Yang Dongqing.
Yang Dongqing was seen covering his left hand with a look of pain on his face. The three fingers on his left hand began to rot slowly, while the other two fingers seemed to be burned by invisible flames, and the skin was getting charred.
"Hurry up and answer the statue's questions, otherwise you will be cursed by both angels and demons!" Jun Wushang, who is also from the Bronze Coffin Company, reminded hurriedly.
Yang Dongqing gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain and rushed towards the statue.
Then, the statue came to life again and looked at Yang Dongqing.
The young man with a body of steel suddenly felt a terrifying pressure like a dark mountain pressing down on him. He tried to grit his teeth and hold on, but he was defeated after just a few seconds and fell to his knees in front of the statue.
"Mortal, tell me the most evil thing you have done."
Still the same problem.
But Yang Dongqing was in a dilemma, because he was not sure which one was the most evil. He wanted to say killing people, and killed many people from the Viper Gang, but he did not think that was evil. It was obviously Su Mu who did the evil first and took away Jasmine, and everyone in the Viper Gang was a scum, and their deaths were not unjust.
After thinking for a moment, Yang Dongqing raised his head with difficulty and said, "Robbery, I robbed 50,000 yuan."
Buzz!
A strange buzzing sound was heard.
The statue began to change in Yang Dongqing's eyes. The statue, which was originally half god and half demon, began to turn black rapidly and completely turned into the appearance of a hideous demon.
At the same time, the burn on his palm quickly disappeared, replaced by the rotting of the entire palm.
"Another demon!?" Jun Wushang exclaimed, "This is too much. Robbery of 50,000 yuan makes one a demon? This woman, in order to seek revenge, wiped out her enemy's entire family, even the children, but she was cursed by an angel."
The woman who was called out had a cold expression on her face, and sneered: "Killing someone means paying for their life, so what's wrong with me taking revenge? Don't you look at yourself? The worst thing you've done is not paying for a foot massage, and you've been labeled a demon. How dare you criticize others?"
Jun Wushang's face suddenly turned red, and he was obviously a little embarrassed after his past was exposed.
"I forgot to bring money!"
Tie Feng's eyes moved over the men and he said in a deep voice, "Something is indeed wrong. Is the standard of judgment really good and evil? Is robbery a greater sin than murder?"
"Could it be because Jun Wushang is a Taoist priest, and his behavior is tantamount to violating the Tao he believes in, so regardless of the severity of the circumstances, it is also considered betrayal?" A short and thin man pondered.
"It's possible." Tie Feng couldn't figure out the reason and could only reluctantly accept this statement.
At this time, everyone's attention was focused on the last person, Su Mu.
Some people were surprised and wondered: "He has not answered questions for such a long time, why hasn't he been cursed by gods and demons?"
Everyone also discovered this problem. Su Mu and Yang Dongqing came at the same time. Logically, both of them would be cursed by the gods and demons at the same time, but just now only Yang Dongqing was cursed, while Su Mu looked unharmed.
"He must have been cursed. The wound should be covered by his clothes. I guess he has a strong pain tolerance, so he didn't show any abnormality."
Hearing everyone's discussions, Su Mu smiled slightly and did not explain. He was really not cursed. He had vaguely felt two strange forces invading his body before, but they were resisted by the [Pure Heart].
The passive effect of [Pure Heart] is that it has a strong resistance to all kinds of filthy and negative things.
However, he still chose to walk towards the statue, because he could feel that as time went by, the two strange forces were getting stronger and stronger, and it would not be long before they would break through the upper limit of what the [Innocent Heart] could withstand.
If you don't want to be cursed twice, you can only answer the questions of the statue.
Click, click, click...
As Su Mu entered, the head of the statue began to turn, and the terrifying pressure descended again. The feeling of fear and despair as if falling into the sea ten thousand meters deep surged into his heart. It was not too obvious from a distance before, but now that he was being stared at by the statue, the feeling was particularly strong.
It’s like there is a real god or demon standing in front of you, their majestic bodies break through the sky and are as tall as the planets. The strong sense of oppression is enough to suffocate you.
However, just when everyone thought that Su Mu would not be able to kneel down like they had done before, they found that he was smiling, and his smile was calm and even contained a hint of contempt.
His figure was as straight as a pine tree, his eyes were calm and peaceful, as if he did not feel the pressure from the gods and demons.
Su Mu smiled gently, moved his lips and teeth slightly towards the statue, and asked silently: "You are a god, then what am I?"
The statue fell silent, like a dead object.
