"Then please, Lord Demon King, please use our strength again and let us continue to survive." Adao showed no resistance to Soleichuan shaking him.To Adao, who was used to being bullied, Soleichuan's momentum didn't matter at all.

Soleichuan gritted his teeth, "Why do you think I saved you from the thieves!"

If we say that the end of this farce will end with the death of Adao, allowing Joseph to return to power in Wenfeng County.So for Soleichuan, everything he had done before was in vain.He spent countless sacrifices and corpses, but failed to create any gentle land.After experiencing the bloodbath, the people of Linfeng County will still face countless cold winters.

"The world won't be that simple."

In Soleichuan's mind, Infinitely repeated these words.Even though we have made so many efforts, we still cannot escape the consequences of this cycle.

Only then did I realize how weak language is and how simple my own thinking is.I thought that I could change this chaotic world with just my imagination.Reality always brings contradictions and frustrations one after another.

Even so, Soleichuan will not give up on his path.

The world will never tire of wars and strife. No matter how many years pass, people will never stop fighting among themselves.

Soleichuan sneered, "Then let me dash your so-called hope. Your soul is mine, and I will not allow you to end your life easily."

Chapter 34 Covered in Blood

Suoleichuan entered the tent alone, and this time Adao made him very angry.There were few characters that made Soleichuan angry, and it was always unpleasant to look at his lifeless face.Perhaps it was the first time that he chose to interfere in other people's affairs. It was clearly about to be completed, but Adao gave up at the end.Soleichuan, who had never worked hard to do anything, tasted the futility for the first time.

Suoleichuan had been sitting on a chair in the tent, sulking alone.Waiting until Aicilia and Rody came back, Rody was holding Lilith in his hand and smiling happily.The welcome and warmth given to Luo Di by the people of Cold Wind County seemed to make him not care about the threat of Soleichuan seizing Lilith for the time being.Instead, he was talking to Lilith.

Without saying anything, Soleichuan took Aicilia's hand and left the tent.The red-haired girl's face was full of doubts.

Under the darkness of night, they made a rustling sound when their feet stepped into the snow, bringing a little bit of life to the quiet surrounding Wind Wind County.

"You're not going to take me to some strange place and do some strange things, are you?" Aicilia smiled, following Soleichuan's steps closely, "In this kind of icy and snowy place, you will catch a cold. "

"Although it is a strange thing," Soleichuan felt a lot more relaxed after hearing Aicilia's joke, "but it should be different from what you think."

Soleichuan dragged Aicilia to a house, which was the only intact house left.After being swept away by rolling stones, one of the few houses in the interior of Lingfeng County survived.You could see through the window that the room was dark.There was a lock on the door, locking it from outside the house.

Soleichuan smiled at Aicilia, "I want to ask you to pick the lock." He pointed at the rust-covered lock.

Aicilia smiled, "It's an honor."

It seems that Aicilia will not complain about Soleichuan's request.She clearly understood that the power of Soleichuan could not be used frequently.She drew the sword from her waist and easily cut off the door lock.

When he opened the door, there was dead silence in the house.

In an instant, there was a stench that made the stomach cramp. It was the smell of a dead body that had passed through for a long time.

Aicilia immediately lit a flame in her palm for illumination.

The two of them completely held their breath when they saw the scene in front of them.The room was stained blood red and filled with disintegrated corpses.He couldn't recognize the faces at all, but Soleichuan basically concluded that they were basically some of Joseph's consuls who were tied up and imprisoned.Those Yin Hong's intestines were attached to the walls of the room irregularly. Not only were the chests of the corpses cut open, but the heads were also smashed open one by one, and the brains and intestinal juices with chaotic colors were mixed together.

This is absolutely insane.

"It's really too tragic. There is no complete corpse, and we can't even tell how many corpses there are." Aicilia covered her nose, and the visual impact made the smell even stronger.

"Is this the gentle world I want to create?" Soleichuan couldn't help but laugh at himself, even though the purpose of bringing Aicilia here was to kill these archons.Such a method made Soleichuan feel very uncomfortable.

The entire room was covered in blood and a disgusting yellow-green liquid.Their hearts were hung with ropes from the ceiling inside the room. When the door was opened, the cold wind blew in, causing the suspended hearts to sway.

There are five hearts in total. It may have been a long time ago. The blood on them has solidified and the hearts look dark.The hanging position of the heart does not appear to be arbitrary.It can be seen roughly that it is in the shape of a five-pointed star with the ceiling as the center, and there is a heart at an equal distance from each corner.

"Is it possible that this is some kind of ritual going on?" Suo Leichuan suddenly remembered some past events, which were not very pleasant events.

"We don't rule out this possibility." Aicilia's voice became low, and she knew what Soleichuan was remembering.

Soleichuan's hometown, Hiawasai Town, although I don't know if Soleichuan himself has any memory.As a family friend of the Cooktern family, Aicilia had known each other since childhood, but at that time they couldn't clearly call each other's names.Now that they were reunited after so many years, Soleichuan could not compare the appearance of Aicilia now with her appearance when she was a child.

In the town of Hiawasei, the reason why Soleichuan was identified as a white devil was precisely because after Soleichuan was born, a person would mysteriously disappear every year, and then his internal organs would be placed around the town.The townspeople thought it was a strange thing caused by a white devil.Only then did Soleichuan become a displaced person.

So Suleichuan became extremely sensitive to such things, and he couldn't help but think of the smiling faces of people when his mother was burned to death in the middle of the square.As long as there are so-called legitimate reasons, kind people will also kill evil with a smile.

The first guard to patrol here was Eddie.After he confirmed what was happening in front of him, he immediately rang the alarm bell in his hand.Within a few minutes, patrolling and resting team members and county residents gathered around to watch.

Will Soleichuan and Aicilia and the room filled with the smell of blood.

Adao squeezed out from the crowd and was startled by the smell of blood that hit his nostrils.Looking at Soleichuan, he asked in a low voice, "What happened."

Eddie grabbed the right to speak, "Captain Adao, they broke the lock on the door where the Sheriff was imprisoned, and then killed Sheriff Joseph and the others."

"Eddie, don't make random judgments yet." Adao stopped Eddie's words and walked into the house himself, observing the situation in the house as if something was being sacrificed.

Some women, probably knowing what was going on, began to back away.They had been cleaning the corpses and blood stains for the past five days, but they still couldn't get used to this kind of thing.For the fear of blood and the shadow of death, the weak hearts of women cannot withstand several tortures.

If it would make him feel better if the corpses of those thieves were unfamiliar faces, then these archons that he had seen all day long had been transformed into the incomplete appearance that they were now, and could not even be called corpses.It can keep these women awake for several nights.

"Mr. Cooktern, what's going on?" Adao didn't seem to choose to believe Eddie's words immediately.

"Well, how should I put it?" Suoleichuan knew that he had just had a dispute with Adao, so he was very suspicious, but he had no intention of excusing himself. "It is true that the purpose of my coming here is to kill these dirty people." Dirty vampires, they always crawl on the people's bodies and suck blood. I can't stand this kind of behavior." Soleichuan was used to using his identity as the Demon King to make high-profile declarations, but he changed the subject, "But, we will This is what happened when you entered the house after breaking the lock.”

Chapter 35 The fear of the unknown

"Captain, he has already admitted that he wants to kill the Sheriff. This demon is not human after all. He will kill us all together." Eddie looked a little hysterical.

Adao waved his hand, "Tie Eddie up for me." He directed his several guards.

They looked at each other, but had no choice but to tie Eddie's hands with ropes.

"Captain, what do you mean?" Eddie's eyes clearly showed he didn't understand.

"Mr. Cooktern rescued us from the thieves, and I have declared that I will dedicate my soul to it. Until now, you are still slandering Mr. Cooktern that he will kill us. Eddie, although I did appreciate your courage and style very much before. But this time, I can't indulge you any more." Then Adao said to the two guards, "Find a separate tent and lock him up for three days. Let him think about it for himself."

Then Adao organized a garrison team to strengthen patrols and evacuate surrounding residents. He also ordered not to go out of the tent alone at night, and to shout immediately in case of emergency.The women were still shivering as they retreated.

After Adao finished these things, he came to Suoleichuan's tent.At that time, Soleichuan and Aicilia were talking about something.Their conversation stopped when they saw him coming in.They sat on chairs and stared at Adao who came in.

"I'm really sorry about what happened tonight. I will investigate this matter clearly." Adao said without any expression, "His Royal Highnesses Luo Di and Wuzi Cuxi have also taken a rest. I will send someone to stay up late to keep watch. Please Don’t worry. If nothing happens, I will retreat and go on patrol first.”

Suoleichuan smiled at first. He didn't think Luo Di and Wu Zikuxi would need guards.

"I want to see what you think about this matter first." Suoleichuan first tried to retain Adao, who wanted to leave.

"It is still under investigation. I will report to Mr. Cooktern if there is any progress." Adao still had no expression, as usual.He would often show a little smile to Soleichuan. It seemed that when something like this happened, he felt uneasy.

"What do you think is the motive behind this incident?" Suoleichuan ignored Adao's words and asked directly.

Adao could only answer, "I think it might be someone from the Cold Wind Thieves Group who did such a thing in order to take revenge for this incident."

"Then why were the corpses treated so cruelly and placed as if they were performing some kind of ritual?" Soleichuan continued to ask.

"Maybe I want to pass this sin on to Mr. Cooktern. Generally speaking, when you think of sacrificial rituals, you easily think of the devil."

"On this point, it seems that we have reached a consensus." Soleichuan raised his chin, "Devils are not likely to be liked no matter where they go."

"I, Dao Allen, will definitely investigate the culprit. Please rest assured, Mr. Cooktern." Adao's constant declarations and assurances could not conceal the sweat still breaking out on his head.It is obviously north of the icy plateau where there is no spring.

From the hurried words at the beginning, Suoleichuan could sense Adao's anxiety. He seemed to really want to leave the tent.

"Is it possible that people within Linfeng County did this kind of thing?" Aicilia also interjected and offered her own opinion, "The atrocities committed by Joseph and the others are not something that happened in a day or two. Will the County They are the ones who continue to exploit the people's property, and they are the ones who make it impossible for the Imperial Army to support this place. The accumulation of resentment is probably very deep, and I think those who would kill to this extent must have deep hatred."

"Of course, this possibility cannot be ruled out." Adao nodded reluctantly.

"And there are some people who hold both the hatred for the Demon King and the hatred for Joseph, and are extremely excited." Aicilia deliberately didn't point it out and looked at Adao.

Adao was speechless.

"Have you interrogated Eddie about anything?" Soleichuan asked again.

Adao answered this question very decisively, "Eddie has always been an excellent subordinate of mine. Although he is often impulsive and has offended you, Mr. Cooktern, I dare to use my honor to guarantee that I will make the right decision." Such a thing would not happen to Eddie."

"If you are telling the truth and are not covering up his words, then it doesn't matter if we do some investigation." Soleichuan stood up.

"But Eddie's heart is not completely mature yet, and he has a certain resistance to Mr. Cooktern..."

Before Adao finished speaking, Soleichuan and Aicilia had already walked out of the tent.

The already cold Wenfeng County has become even more eerie because of this bizarre murder.It seems that if you are not careful, something unknown will appear from a certain shadow and tear your body apart.Even while hiding in their tents, the women cuddled tightly in the arms of their men.I thought that after repelling the thieves group, I would be able to live in peace for a while, but unexpectedly, such an incident happened again. How can people not be afraid.

The fear of the unknown more easily penetrates into people's blood.

Eddie was tied to a chair behind his back, and his hazy eyes were about to fall asleep.He saw Adao taking Soleichuan and Aicilia into the tent where he was tightly closed.His eyes were filled with anger again, like an arrogant wild wolf.

"Captain, don't hesitate any more. Soleichuan is a devil. Since he has claimed our souls, dying at the hands of thieves is the same as dying at the hands of a devil!" Suddenly Eddie was like a mad dog again. Ran barked, "He is not a human being, he is a dirty demon who likes to use dirty means to obtain everything. Humans and demons cannot coexist and understand each other, and humans and demons cannot coexist. He killed Joseph, next One step away from us, we will all eventually become sacrifices to the devil.”

"Yes, it turns out that I am such a terrifying existence." Soleichuan laughed at himself in a low voice.

"Tear off your human mask! Wenfeng County will not welcome you! Get out of this icy plateau!" Eddie roared at the top of his lungs.

These are the heartfelt words spoken by a rescued person facing his benefactor.This scene is so funny. It was Soleichuan who saved the Cold Wind County, but he was treated as an enemy by Eddie.But just because he had white hair and unusual abilities, all the favors he had given before were wiped out, just because of fear.

People's fear of the unknown comes from the heart.Regardless of whether this thing is currently harmful to humans.Once something disharmonious happens, the aliens mixed among humans will bear the brunt of suspicion and taboo.Humanity will not allow aliens to coexist.

Chapter 36 Crime and Punishment

"Did you kill Joseph?" Soleichuan ignored the roar and went straight to the point.

Eddie took a sip of saliva and spat it out, but missed and the saliva fell to the ground.The cold air quickly turned the saliva into ice cubes.The nights in Howling County are deadly cold.

Soleichuan approached Eddie and opened his upper and lower eyelids with his hands. They were filled with bloodshot eyes.

"You don't rule out the possibility of using some kind of drug, right?"

Soleichuan was once a street child and saw countless people living on the streets.Even if he can't eat enough, he will still use the stolen money to exchange for a white powder.That can make people excited and do things beyond their normal control.This drug is very popular in the dark streets and has a very ironic name - Gospel.

It brings beautiful hallucinations to people, makes users mentally dependent, and becomes obsessed with the comfort provided by this drug, bringing them false gospel.

Now that Soleichuan thinks about it, the irony becomes even more intense.Suoleichuan asked Adao if he knew about this white powder drug. Adao shook his head and said he had never heard of it.

"The cold plateau with its tightly guarded gates should not allow such things to flow in." Aicilia analyzed.

"Then are there any religious groups or the like near you?" Suoleichuan asked Adao again.

"I don't know from a distance, but at least the people around Linfeng County are accustomed to relying on their own strength. I haven't seen any forces such as religious groups." Adao answered.

Soleichuan walked out of the tent and looked at Eddie's eyes that wanted to eat him. He knew that it was impossible to pry out any information from him, just as Adao said.

Aicilia and Adao also followed closely.Suoleichuan found that since the incident, Adao rarely met his eyes and seemed submissive.

Aicilia sighed and said, "Although we have ruled out drug trance and religious heresy, there is no doubt that Eddie is the biggest suspect."

Adao was trembling slightly, which was caught in Aicilia's eyes.

Aicilia deliberately made an irritating voice again, "That's how it is. Eddie looks like a fool. He must have wanted to use this method to kill Joseph and shift the blame to On the Demon King’s head. Captain Adao, you don’t want to protect your subordinates, do you?”

Soleichuan immediately realized Aicilia's intention, "Yes, yes. If you are dissatisfied with me, you can tell me, right? If he doesn't tell me, how will I know. Even if he is full of love for me Angry, full of resentment towards Joseph and the others, it is wrong to kill people in this way. Even if a human is cut into small pieces, it cannot be eaten in soup, are you right, Adao? "

The joking tone of Soleichuan and Aicilia obviously made Adao very unhappy.He couldn't control his embarrassment.

But Soleichuan was the person he had declared his allegiance to. Adao convinced himself countless times in his heart, "Mr. Cooktern, it is really impossible to make a conclusion on this matter at the moment. I will definitely investigate it." Adao said in his heart Repeating these few sentences is almost a cliche.

"Captain Adao, that's it for today." Soleichuan smiled and said, "Thank you for accompanying me."

After Soleichuan and Aicilia returned to the tent, they lit the oil lamp inside. After confirming that there were no people or movement outside the tent, they began to talk quietly.It wasn't until late at night that I fell asleep.

The next morning, Soleichuan was awakened by the roar of the garrison's morning exercises.

Suoleichuan's sleepy eyes saw Adao directing the garrison members to conduct slashing training in the open space.

Adao's face was full of exhaustion.The major events that happened one after another in Howling County made his energy almost reach the critical point.After noticing Soleichuan coming out of the tent, he just looked at him as a greeting.

It was a boring time anyway, and there wasn't much progress in the murder case.Soleichuan just watched the team members train and kill time.During the two years he was in prison, the biggest skill Soleichuan had learned was that he could use it to kill time no matter how boring it was.Countless times, I watched the movements of the spider in the corner for a whole day.

It wasn't until the morning exercise ended that Soleichuan stood up and took down a one-handed long sword from the weapon rack next to him.The edge of the sword is very neat, as are the edges of the other weapons on the weapon rack.It seems that the craftsmen of Linfeng County pay great attention to the maintenance of weapons.

Soleichuan waved the weapon at Adao twice, "How about you practice with me? I haven't moved my hands and feet for a long time."

Adao didn't say anything, but took out his sword from his waist and said, "I'm offended." Adao's sword was a broad-edged sword. Although it was heavy and clumsy, it could easily break human bones.

The resting defenders also looked over.

As they fought, only banging sounds were heard.Because it is not a fight to the death, the swords of both sides are just testing each other.Neither of them used the maximum sword speed and power.

Although Suoleichuan and Adao can be regarded as fighting partners, Adao himself has not fought since Suoleichuan came to Linfeng County.Soleichuan had no idea about Adao's strength.Almost all of them were Soleichuan who was attacking, and Adao had been using his broad-bladed sword to defend.It only occasionally swung over a few times as a symbolic attack.

After a few moves, Suoleichuan knew that Adao's fighting skills were pretty good.Although I only used half of my level, I saw that A Dao had no difficulty in picking up the ball.Maybe I can't defeat Adao without using the power of original sin.Even speaking on a larger scale, it may be indistinguishable from Elitus.To be able to guard Linfeng County from the thieves' swords is by no means a simple human being.I said I wanted to protect them at first, but now that I think about it, I feel a little arrogant.

After a few more moves, Suoleichuan felt that his body was getting a little warm, so he put down his stance.Adao also put the sword back into its scabbard.Soleichuan carefully observed the blade of his long sword. Just because of a few strikes, there were some small gaps left on the blade, but they were not dense and very sparse.

After smiling and nodding to each other, Soleichuan put the sword back on the weapon rack.

After returning to the tent, Aicilia was still fast asleep on the bed.Although I had been sleeping with Aicilia for the past few days, nothing happened beyond the last limit.Soleichuan was also surprised that he could keep his mind calm until now.Maybe it's because the cold wind in this land is particularly cold.

Soleichuan looked at the sleeping face with a smile, and could feel the blood slowly flowing through his body.
