Everyone echoed, having already discerned during their time being captured that these monsters were looking for a monster that Lu Haotian knew.
Now they are implicated because of Lu Haotian and that monster.
There is a high probability that I would die in this remote and impoverished place today.
For a time, everyone was filled with resentment towards Lu Haotian.
Wu Heng stared at Lu Haotian with bloodshot eyes, a hint of resentment in them. He shouted at Lu Haotian's back, "Haotian, tell me quickly where their Pixiu is, and tell them to go find Pixiu!"
That's their business as fairies; let them handle it themselves.
Do you really want us to die for you?
His shout further fueled the anger of the others.
They all condemned Lu Haotian for being selfish and self-serving.
Some even demanded that he quickly tell the demons where the Pixiu was, or they would haunt him even as ghosts.
Lu Haotian said expressionlessly, "I don't know where Lord Pixiu is, so I can't tell them."
Moreover, they certainly didn't eat your flesh because they couldn't find Lord Pixiu.
Otherwise, they would have killed me first, instead of letting me sit here unharmed.
His tone was very calm, even somewhat cold.
The crowd's anger intensified, and they shouted, "Once you've said it, we'll give up!"
What if they leave?
"Hehe." The temple's shaman chuckled as he watched the farce unfold before him.
Her emotionless eyes looked at Lu Haotian, a hint of amusement in them.
She said in a gentle tone, "You are quite clever."
We didn't eat them because we were looking for the Pixiu.
It's simply because I'm hungry.
Whoever comes to this village will be our food source. What difference does it make what they are called or who they are?
The reason I'm not harming you is simply because you are a worshipper of the Pixiu, and keeping you alive is necessary to draw out the Pixiu.
After saying that, she looked at the crowd that was still shouting.
She continued softly, "You don't need to worry."
Once we find Lord Pixiu, we will devour this young master and Lord Pixiu.
You will all be reunited sooner or later, don't be impatient.
Lu Haotian: ...Not in a hurry...
Upon hearing the temple shaman's words, the crowd felt even more hopeless.
They had originally thought that if Lu Haotian revealed the location of Lord Pixiu, they could save their lives.
But now, judging from what this demon is saying, this village is actually a den of monsters, and anyone who comes here will die.
How did they even find this awful place?
Perhaps it's because the shadow of death is too terrifying.
Perhaps the physical pain was too great, and without finding an outlet, the pent-up frustration in my heart could not be calmed.
The crowd immediately turned their guns on the director who had chosen this location, hurling insults and abuse.
The director also had a zombie demon by his side, struggling desperately, so he had no time to pay attention to the curses of these people.
He roared, "Stop arguing, all of you! Quickly figure out how to save yourselves!"
Now that everyone's here, what's the point of adding any more unnecessary accusations?!
Everyone knew it was useless, but it was just too scary and too painful!
Begging for mercy is useless.
They did want to rebel.
But they were all tied up and couldn't move. What else could they do besides swearing or trying to distract themselves?
In an instant, the room was filled with wailing and cursing, and an atmosphere of utter despair.
After burning the cat-faced old lady, Lu Mengmeng prepared to go down the mountain to rescue people.
Bai Tiantian, Wei Qishan, and the cameraman decided to stay on the mountain for the time being.
After all, the monster below was capable of capturing more than a hundred members of the film crew and subduing more than a hundred bodyguards sent by the Lu family. It must be an extraordinary monster.
Going down there might be more dangerous, and it could also be a burden to Lu Mengmeng.
Lu Mengmeng, on the other hand, didn't seem to care.
She hasn't encountered a monster in thousands of years that can fight her to a standstill.
Not to mention humans.
After arriving in this world, even cultivators no longer exist.
What are you going to fight with ordinary people?
Aside from games, Lu Mengmeng hasn't played anything else with humans in a long time.
She left Wei Qishan a few pills that sealed away her demonic aura.
With a serious expression, she said to him, "If you encounter a monster you can't beat, just throw it out and smash it!"
Also, you can't eat this!
"Cheap uncle, you're too weak! If you eat this dumpling, you'll explode and die!"
She spoke in a tone that sounded like she was advising a puppy not to eat random things, which infuriated Wei Qishan.
He waved at Lu Mengmeng with a look of disgust, telling her to leave quickly so she wouldn't drive him crazy.
"Go, go, go, hurry up and go! Do you think I'm like you? You want to eat everything you see."
What's with that worried tone?
And if you're going to say it, why do you have to drag him down with you in the end?
What did he do to deserve this?
Lu Mengmeng really doesn't trust Wei Qishan.
When this cheap uncle and she were fighting over the hotpot, they fought really hard!
She wanted to eat her own demonic energy balls, so how could this cheap uncle not want to eat them?
Maybe after she leaves, the little Wei family brat will eat himself to death.
Lu Mengmeng glanced at Wei Qishan with a look of disgust.
Turning to Bai Tiantian, he said, "Auntie! If he's really greedy, you should keep an eye on him."
You'll really die if you eat this!
"Now that you're dead, you won't be able to be all lovey-dovey together anymore!"
Bai Tiantian: ……
Wei Qishan: ...
"Pfft!"
Watching the two get roasted from both sides until they were golden brown, the cameraman couldn't help but burst out laughing.
