In order to prove to Hong Liu that his judgment was fair, he had to kill Fan Ji at some point.
As for when, Lao Ba said that when the time comes, Chu Mu will understand.
[I don't understand shit. I don't even understand what's going on with me. Why should he decide my decision?]
Chu Mu was so angry that he hit the deck with his clenched fist without paying attention.
Bang.
There was a dead silence all around, and Chu Mu's punch immediately attracted everyone's attention.
The guy with the goatee in the front row seemed to have just noticed Chu Mu: "Hey? Young man, when did you get on the boat?"
The others had similar reactions: "Isn't this a Zhoujiawu ship? If you're not from Zhoujiawu, how can you get on board?"
A woman squatting next to Chu Mu pulled him back, moved most of her body forward, and blocked Chu Mu behind her.
"Big Brother and Big Sister," the woman said, smiling at everyone, "This is my husband's young master. He came here a few days ago to harvest grain and seeds, and happened to encounter a strange incident in the village, so I dragged the young master aboard with me."
The goateed man who had spoken earlier looked more cheerful: "No wonder he's so handsome, he turns out to be a young master."
"Yes," the woman continued to laugh, "this young master is from the Chen family and will marry into the Fan family in the future. I have to take good care of him."
After hearing what the woman said, the people on the boat withdrew their gazes from Chu Mu.
"It's the Fan family, sister, why didn't you tell me earlier? The smell of dampness is strong at the stern. Come, sit over here."
Goatee's tone was even more enthusiastic.
"Er Gou Dan, make room for the young master."
The man with the goatee is a young man.
The boy was about fourteen or fifteen years old, with skin as dark as if it had been covered with charcoal ash. Although he was not very old, you could already see that he had long legs and a thin waist, and he had a good figure.
It's those facial features...
Well, it's almost too dark to see.
Before Chu Mu could stand up, the woman grabbed his hand and said to the man with the goatee nervously, "Young Master is seasick. It will be even more uncomfortable to sit in the front. Let's just make do here."
As he spoke, he wrote "Don't go" on the back of Chu Mu's hand.
Chu Mu discovered that the language system used by the people here was different from any plane he had been to before.
But he can understand, read and speak.
{Ding Dong, it’s time for Lao Ba’s class.
Mu Mu, the world you are in now is a plane that is being judged in the era of the old gods.
What is the Judgment Plane? Simply put, the boss of this plane has offended the Eight Old Gods and is now on the Death List.
The Old God's Temple will send the God of Justice to this plane to judge crimes.
In a nutshell, you came here just to satisfy the perverted hobbies of certain people in the temple and to destroy the world in extreme ways.
Chu Mu: .
[This doesn't sound perverted at all, so how could I, a judge who lives in heaven and earth, be so brainless as to collude with a bunch of perverts?]
{Because you grew up in the temple, you've been influenced by everything you've seen and heard, and you have no independent thinking ability at all. Furthermore, as the God of Judgement, you've been deprived of all emotions since birth, so when you strike someone with your sword, you're incredibly swift.}
Chu Mu understood. Isn't this just like falling into a pyramid scheme and being brainwashed?
As for the subsequent development of the story, Chu Mu also had some small guesses:
So, I awakened later? And then I went back to judge the old gods in the temple?
Lao Ba pondered for a moment and said: {It’s not an awakening, you are nourished by Fan Ji’s love...}
【Shut up. 】
Boom.
The bow of the ship hit the rock wall outside the cave, and everyone on the ship was crushed into pieces.
"Ouch, that hurts so much."
"Ah you stepped on me!"
"Mom, I want to vomit—"
All kinds of sounds came together, making it extremely noisy.
“Hehehe——”
Suddenly, a sharp laugh that seemed to come from the depths of the earth penetrated into the ears of the passengers on the boat indiscriminately.
The crowd, which was extremely noisy a second ago, fell into silence in an instant.
“Hehehe——”
The strange laughter continued.
Chu Mu heard it clearly. It came from a cave not far from the bow of the ship.
He was on a ferry at the time, sailing on a river with no visible shore.
The rock wall that the bow of the boat hit was like a small island suddenly appearing in the middle of the river.
No, it’s more like a broken mountain that plunges straight into the water than an island.
The island is surrounded by steep cliffs covered with slippery moss, and there is no way to get on the island.
There was a hole about two meters high and three meters wide, which could accommodate the ferry that Chu Mu was on.
The laughter came from inside the cave.
After a while, the laughter turned into intermittent crying, a long and sad melody that sounded like a complaint and made people feel creepy.
The passengers on the boat were already trembling with fear.
The woman holding Chu Mu was also trembling.
Chu Mu could sense her fear.
"Please bless us, Goddess of Bodhisattva and Grandpa Buddha. Please grant us, the cave master, a mercy and allow us, a group of poor people, to enter the cave."
Chu Mu frowned when he heard this.
He tried to ask: "Why do we have to go into the cave? Can't we go around it by walking to the side?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone's eyes turned to him again.
However, this time there is more blame.
"Pingniang, didn't you explain to him?" The man with the goatee looked mean, and even more sinister when he lowered his face.
Pingniang, the woman next to Chu Mu, apologized to the goatee with a bitter face: "I'm sorry, I was scared by Gui and forgot to tell you."
"Now is not the time to talk," the goateed man looked at the dark cave entrance fearfully, "Let's go in first. If we can't get the protection of the cave master before dark, we will die."
No one answered Chu Mu's doubts, but he could almost guess the answer.
This is a world despised by the old gods. The ghosts that Pingniang mentioned again and again are probably the same as the ghosts that Chu Mu understood.
It eats people and is very evil, the kind that is difficult for humans to resist.
The monsters do not appear at daybreak, but they become rampant at night.
As long as they enter this cave, the villagers can avoid being hunted by monsters.
However, it seems that this cave is not accessible to anyone...
Chu Mu secretly looked at the shriveled old woman next to the goatee.
I saw that she was holding something like a rattle in her right hand, shaking it with a "dong dong dong" sound.
Throw an old bamboo piece upward with your left hand.
The bamboo slip fell to the ground, with the black side facing everyone.
"No," the old woman's voice was as dry as she was, "Master Dong won't agree."
"Wuwuwu... Hehehe..." The crying and laughter in the cave were full of strong malice.
The goatee man's eyes turned fierce: "Ask again, if it doesn't work, give Er Gou Dan to Master Dong."
