The crowd gradually began to understand, thinking that the three of them must have seen so much gold and silver that they must have harbored evil intentions. Thus, they had forgotten their kindness and disregarded their friendship to kill each other. This was the reason why they had come here today to seek revenge for the devouring of the seas and the devouring of the heavens.
Thinking about it this way, the crocodile must have been smarter in the river as it stole the gold. No wonder the Immortal Crocodile's estate was so grand and majestic, and had such a place in Yi Zhou City.
The Hsiangliang family is a good family," he continued. "They won't accept such a large sum of money, no matter what it takes." "At that time, the kind-hearted girl was already carrying a dragon. When she heard that Emperor Taizong had only bestowed gold and silver, without even a letter or dictum, her heart was like dying embers. On that night, she jumped into the river and committed suicide …
The crowd clamored for a while, and Xiao Lan screamed out in surprise, tightly grabbing onto Liu'er's arm. Liu'er humphed heavily, obviously extremely annoyed.
He said: "The three of us did not expect that the good-hearted girl would be so unyielding. She was originally just here to escort the gold and there wasn't anything too difficult about it, but if Emperor Taizong knew that the woman had already died, he would definitely punish us for our incompetence. After we received the news, we immediately ordered two hundred soldiers to go with the army to fish along the river. But it was in the middle of spring and the river was rising and we had been fishing for three days and we couldn't even find the woman's body. "
Liu'er stomped her feet in anger and thought to herself, "What Heavenly Son civilians are doing this? How are they any different from the rapist in the market?!"
The Ocean Swallowing Heavens said: "The family of Xiangliang refused to accept the gold and silver. We had no choice but to escort the gold back to the palace." He then coldly looked at the crocodile and said, "On the way back, he actually tried to kill us all by deceiving us. He wanted to take all the gold!"
At this moment, the crocodile in the middle of the river also opened its eyes. As long as it opened its eyes, they would emit a radiant light. And he said harshly: "Big brother, now that things have come to this, what's the use of you lying to me again? Since the three of us have our own ulterior motives, there's no need for anyone to bother about us! "
The Ocean Swallowing Heavens: "Second brother and I did want to swallow the gold, but we also wanted to include you in it. That day, your body wasn't well, and you slept early. When I plotted with Second Brother, I didn't wake you up. You think we want to hurt you, but you also want to kill us! "Third brother, you are really vicious!" As he finished speaking, he was close to howling.
The Jiang Zhong Crocodile said: "Humph! Why don't you speak the truth in front of all the heroes? When I got up in the middle of the night to relieve myself, I heard my big brother say, "When these people drink the sweat medicine, we'll kill them all!" He also said, 'Let's go catch a few more passersby and kill them as well, then we'll treat them as robbers!' Then, the two of you laughed in a low voice for a while, and the second brother said, 'We still need to leave a informant, and it's best to leave a scapegoat'. Brother, you asked, "Brother, who do you think is suitable?" Before Second Brother could reply, he was startled by a few horse roars, and the two of you stopped talking. Let me ask you, are these words true? "If that scapegoat was not me, then who else could it be?"
Twenty years, he remembered.
In the past twenty years, he must have been constantly thinking about these things and saying these words.
Hai Dongtian's face changed between dark and clear, and killing intent filled his eyes. After a long time, he finally calmed down, sighed, and said, "That's right! This is what I said to my brother! We heard the hoots and didn't dare to say anything for fear it would be revealed. But the scapegoat won't be you! Third brother, your thoughts are so wild and your methods are so vicious. You actually drugged us! "
The crocodile in the middle of the river laughed sinisterly, "I would rather kill someone wrongly than let them off! Which person in the world isn't like this? If you say that person is not me now, how would I know? If I did not make a move in advance, I might be the one who has to struggle and seek revenge! "
Suddenly, someone laughed loudly, "Haha! Good! The heavens have eyes! If it wasn't for your illness that day, you would have plotted a trick with them. "If it wasn't for those strange horse hisses, saying that he is the scapegoat, you would never be suspicious!" The one who spoke was Liu'er. He was already furious and couldn't care less about who gave him face as he laughed loudly, "If you three brothers didn't kill each other, then where did all your revenge come from today? If not for what happened today, how would I know how vicious you are! Good! Good! This was what the heavens called having eyes! "Alright!"
He wrote three "Good" words consecutively with sonorous strength. Although Liu'er was young and her voice was young, her heroic spirit was soaring to the heavens. Everyone in the hall couldn't help but be moved.
After hearing Liu'er's words, the two crocodiles did not get angry. Instead, they began to ponder.
This was heaven's will. Who could they blame?
The little Taoist was right, the three of us are self-inflicted evil and we eat the consequences of our evil. This was all part of the cycle of reincarnation, and I've long since understood it! "But because Third Brother ruined our sworn brotherhood, Second Brother's personality has changed …" As he spoke, he looked at the beautiful lady beside him and said, "And then he committed the crime of committing the heaven's punishment. Truly …"
For some unknown reason, the woman who looked as cold as a statue moved.
Hai Huan Tian sighed and continued, "We must avenge this enmity, and this path must work! I have coaxed the heroes to this stage for no other reason other than to inform everyone that Jiang Zhong is not worthy of the word 'hero'! Not only will I kill him, I will also destroy everything about him! "
At this moment, the crowd finally understood why everything recently had to do with the Immortal Crocodile Manor. The reason why they were lured here step by step was actually to expose the true identity of the crocodile in the river. However, his methods were too vicious. He killed the innocent Qiao Family clansmen, threw the blame onto the Immortal Crocodile clan, and used the Azure Sun Art as a cover to use people's selfish motives to deceive others.
In the martial world, face was especially important. So many people had been tricked, but no one was willing to expose it. They could only bear with it and ask, "So much gold and silver, don't the officials want to track it down?"
Hai Dongtian spat and said: "The officials are all mediocre people. No one really knows how to be an official." Hearing that the Emperor had robbed the gold and silver, he was so frightened that his guts cracked. He was also afraid that he would lose his life if he was implicated, so he hid the truth from the public. He then reported to his superiors that the group of strong men had obtained a windfall and were spending most of it. He then took out the money he had plundered in exchange for the remaining half and bribed them into making progress step by step to get by. To deal with them, there was no need for any tricks! "Is that so, third brother?"
The crocodile in the middle of the river snorted. It did not answer his question and instead asked, "You tricked so many heroes over, what do you take them to be? How can you play around with them! "After you exterminated the Qiao Family Manor and desecrated the Ancestral Master Daozang, are you confident that you can escape unscathed?"
Hai Huan Tian was not worried at all. He smiled confidently: "My martial arts are not as good as Taoist Wu Chen's. However, Taoist Wu Chen also said that the younger generation of the martial arts Lin is more powerful than the Blue! Someone's skill in this hall can defeat him, and it just so happens that this person is here to help me! "
