At this time, Madam Gu and others were also escorted into the crowd.
Compared with the pampered and luxurious life before, Mrs. Gu now looks more like a weather-beaten old woman.
Her hair turned gray overnight, and her whole body was like a rose that had lost its moisture, and even its once bright color seemed withered.
It is said that love comes from the heart. Although Mrs. Gu used to have calculations in her eyebrows, her face was plump and full of mature charm.
But now, her face was shriveled and mean, one of the more boring looks.
Lin Mengya touched her chin and looked at Madam Gu inquiringly.
She knew that changes in environment and mood could change a person's appearance in a short period of time, but such a complete change made her a little suspicious.
At this time, the people of the ancient tribe seemed to have seen the culprit, and they didn't know who started it first. Countless curses flew towards Madam Gu.
"Bah! Let her seduce men as she pleases. This kind of slut should have been in a pig cage long ago!"
"I have long seen that she is not a good person. She dresses seductively every day and does nothing. Look at how she seduces those men. She has led them to bad things!"
Such insults did not waver Madam Gu at all.
Lin Mengya always felt that someone like Madam Gu would not be so stupid as to be tricked into selling her mother and daughter.
Therefore, they must be voluntary, and they must have their purpose in coming here.
Later, she unintentionally uncovered the conspiracy between Mrs. Gu and Mr. Liu, and then she realized that the reason why this person came was because they wanted to trick this group of people into going to the sacrifice pit.
They have roughly interrogated Master Liu's purpose, which is to complete the Lu family's instructions and get a huge reward.
So what does Mrs. Gu want because she has no profit and cannot afford to be early
Is it money? Or power
She thought about it again and again, but she felt that it shouldn't be the same.
After all, with Mrs. Gu's social status and skills, she doesn't need to work so hard for these two things, and there are a lot of men who will bring them to her.
And her youngest daughter Li Xin'er.
If Mrs. Gu is just a cold-blooded and ruthless person who can sacrifice anyone just to get a better life for herself, then the role that Li Xin'er can play outside is comparable to that here, being casually betrothed to an old man by Mrs. Gu. The bachelor's role is much greater.
Therefore, Mrs. Gu's real purpose should not be the most superficial ones that they can guess.
So, what will be the final answer
While Lin Mengya was brainstorming, Madam Gu and the bald Sixth Master, as well as the few outer disciples who had been captured before and were likely to belong to Wanshou Mountain and the Lu family, were the targets of public criticism.
Everyone knew very well that now, if they wanted to walk out of the temple safely, they had to hug the Shenji Camp tightly.
But it happened that they had committed suicide before and had offended these men to death in order to escape.
So now, they are eager to get forgiveness from the people in the Shenji Camp. The easiest and best choice is to show their side and choose to fight against these people with the same hatred as them.
"Kill these guys!"
"Yes, beating them to death is all the fault of what they did before!"
The sounds of hundreds of people shouting and killing were already quite loud in such a relatively closed space.
Except for Mrs. Gu and Mr. Liu, several other people were so frightened when they saw this scene that they were afraid that the excited crowd would come up and it would be terrible if they were really beaten to death.
"Sixth, Sixth Master, we..."
That fellow, who was also an outer disciple of the Lu family, swallowed his saliva and tried to hide behind Mr. Liu with a look of horror on his face.
"What are you afraid of? The worst case scenario is death."
Compared with this man's fear, from the moment he was captured, Liu Ye seemed to have made up his mind after a brief panic, and did not answer some key questions directly.
Especially the moment he saw Mrs. Gu, he seemed to have changed.
No matter how Du Canjun and the others interrogated him, this man just gritted his teeth and said nothing.
He glared viciously at the ancient tribesmen who were shouting and killing, and then closed his eyes, looking like he was not afraid of life or death.
When the outer disciples who were hiding behind him saw him like this, their eyes turned wildly.
"You want to die, but I don't want to die!"
The man muttered, and then quietly tried to move away a little.
He had heard from the man who interrogated him that only the most useful among them could survive.
But when he met Mr. Liu, the other party beat him overtly and covertly, and he was not allowed to reveal anything.
He had believed it before, but now, seeing those vicious untouchables looking like they were going to eat him, he was finally afraid.
He wants to live!
"Big man, I'll recruit! I'll recruit them all!"
Following this man's cry, Master Liu suddenly opened his eyes.
"Idiot!" He cursed secretly in his heart, and then his eyes changed, and the fierceness in him was fully revealed.
He casually took out the dagger he had hidden inside his prosthesis.
This was the last secret weapon he had hidden. It was originally used by him to get out of trouble, but now he had to use it in advance.
It was so late that he didn't even have time to lift the hemp rope that bound his wrists. He suddenly raised the weapon and stabbed the traitor's back vest.
"Go to hell! You traitor!"
His eyes were extremely cold, and he looked so ruthless that no one had ever seen him before.
"stop!"
"you dare!"
Two voices sounded at the same time, and Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu should have reacted the fastest among everyone present.
One of them used a concealed crossbow to shoot at the murderous Master Liu, while the other casually threw away his weapon.
In the flash of lightning, the outer disciple fell to the ground. The force was so great that he rolled twice on the ground. His front teeth were knocked out and his mouth was filled with blood.
On the other side, there was only a clear sound of falling to the ground. The dagger in Master Liu's hand did not penetrate the outer disciple's body, but his wrist was directly pulled off.
Everyone looked at Master Liu's wrist in shock.
"Did I read this correctly? Why did my good hand fall off like this?"
Some people in the crowd rubbed their eyes and stared at this scene in stunned silence.
In their impression, in a situation like this, at least the person's wrist shouldn't be bleeding profusely, and the whole person should be wailing in pain, right
Why is there no blood at all? !
Could it be that this man is not a human being! !
Speculations like this quickly spread among everyone.
Everyone looked at Mr. Liu with a hint of awe in their eyes.
In contrast, Lin Mengya, the instigator, behaved quite calmly.
Even Du Canjun and Vice General Bai were shocked.
However, these two people came here due to strong winds and waves. The two of them immediately guessed the reason.
"This man's hands are not real." Vice Admiral Bai said firmly.
Lin Mengya nodded and whispered what she had discovered about the Beast Lord.
"So that's it! I think the Lu family is quite powerful. This prosthetic limb can actually look real!" Vice General Bai sighed in a low voice.
When they captured Mr. Liu before, they had already checked him for hidden weapons, poisons, and the like.
But at that time, they didn't realize that the other person's hand was actually fake.
Du Canjun looked at Master Liu's severed hand, his eyes darkened.
There are also many veterans in their military camp who were forced to retire because of physical disabilities.
Although Lin Zi has found a way for them to survive in old age, if their bodies can be restored to health, even if they cannot be used as well as before, at least they can keep a whole body after death, right
He glanced at Lin Mengya expectantly, who nodded slightly at him.
Du Canjun's eyes lit up. It seemed that his brother-in-law had probably understood what he meant. That's good!
Although Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu took action at the same time, they were standing in two different directions in the crowd.
Therefore, both of them chose the target that was easiest for them to succeed.
Now it seems that the cooperation is just right.
"Ah! It hurts, it hurts so much!"
Compared to the outer disciple, who was rolling on the floor and crying while holding his missing front teeth, Master Liu's reaction was quite abnormal.
Almost immediately, he rushed to retrieve his severed hand in a panic.
Moreover, he turned half of his body, with his back to Lin Mengya and others, and then desperately tried to reattach the severed hand.
But the angle Lin Mengya happened to hit was very tricky, and the delicate mechanism inside was destroyed in one fell swoop, so it fell off.
He put in a lot of effort, but couldn't install it.
At this moment, Mr. Liu was as panicked as a child. He ignored everyone's gaze and only remembered to hide his bare prosthetic wrist in his sleeve.
No one else understood the meaning of what he did, but Lin Mengya, who had been observing him and Madam Gu, had a gleam in her eyes.
If she had read correctly just now, the first thing Liu Ye avoided was within Madam Gu's sight.
Prosthetic limbs should have become a part of life for this group of people, so even if they were knocked down by her, Liu Ye's reaction should not be like this.
Rather than saying that he was worried about his prosthetic limb, it was more like he was afraid that others would see his ugly appearance.
Thinking of this, she quietly moved her position and took a clear look at Madam Gu.
He just caught the flash of surprise in the other person's eyes.
so! Madam Gu doesn’t know Master Liu’s true situation!
And for some reason, Master Liu has been hiding his true condition
After figuring this out, Lin Mengya also had an idea in her mind.
