It’s the end of the world after becoming a mountain god!
Chapter 217 Hypocritical Justice
Sacrifice? Song Tang frowned slightly.
At the same time, she felt some movement in the backpack, where the Xie couple, who were still recovering from their injuries, lived.
"The high priest went to Yan Country alone and tried to capture the soul of the famous General Xie. The high priest hurried back to the tribe with great difficulty, but the Holy Son couldn't hold on and returned to heaven first."
The survivors of the Wu Kingdom believed that the so-called sacrifice of the Holy Son was nothing more than returning to heaven.
But they didn't know that their Holy Son was not the reincarnation of some witch god. The so-called return to heaven was actually dissipation between heaven and earth.
The next high priest, the only one who knew the truth, did not point it out.
He hastily inherited the position of high priest and organized sacrifices again in the name of high priest.
The sacrifices this time are General Xie, who has great merits and is blessed by the country, and ten wizards.
"After this sacrifice, the formation set up by the forbidden technique has finally stabilized."
You Wu, like all the citizens who were forcibly recalled, was afraid that he would also end up with his soul torn to pieces. Everyone was extremely relieved to hear the news.
Who would have thought that this was just the beginning of everyone's misfortune.
"General Xie is both a sacrifice and the guardian of the formation. The high priest said that as long as General Xie is here, he can help us kill those monsters formed by the resentment of the dead, and we can rest assured."
As soon as You Wu finished speaking, Song Tang felt the movement in his backpack getting louder.
She felt the zipper of the backpack being unzipped, and the Xie couple climbed out of the backpack. They stood side by side on Song Tang's shoulders.
Ever since he rescued General Xie in Baijia Village last time, his condition has been very bad.
At that time, his golden light of merit had been exhausted, and only a trace of soul power remained. If Song Tang and the others had arrived a few days later, they would have also ended up with their souls torn apart.
During this period, we are also grateful to Song Tang for donating part of his merits to General Xie.
He also got a book from the Black and White Impermanence, which was a set of exercises suitable for ghosts to practice.
The Xie couple were also diligent. They practiced in their backpacks during the day and climbed onto the roof every night to practice in the moonlight.
"Husband, why did you come out? Why don't you continue practicing?" Madam Xie supported General Xie, who was also a white paper man.
She didn't know why General Xie suddenly became excited and forced his way out of the backpack.
Although Song Tang would usually leave a gap for them to see the scenery outside, in order not to cause trouble for Song Tang, the two of them would just watch from a distance and discuss secretly, never leaving their backpacks during the day.
"You, what did you say? Those are not monsters, they are the people you killed?" General Xie pointed at You Wu who was sitting on the ground, his fingers trembling slightly.
Mrs. Xie looked at General Xie, then at Youwu on the ground, and seemed to understand something in an instant.
She hugged General Xie's arms tightly and could feel that General Xie's whole body was shaking violently.
With every tremor, her heart tightened.
She glared at the man on the ground fiercely. She didn't understand! It was clearly a conflict between countries, so why did her husband have to bear all the bitter consequences in the end?
Following the voice, You Wu saw the paper figure on Song Tang’s shoulder.
He was surprised at first, but soon reacted and showed a malicious smile on his face: "You are General Xie, right? Speaking of which, we have been so happy for the past three hundred years, thanks to your bravery."
"As expected of you, you are the God of War who destroyed the Wu Kingdom. You have helped us defend the formation for more than three hundred years. If it weren't for you, how could we have killed so many people so easily? Speaking of which, General Xie, you have to bear half the responsibility for the deaths of these people!"
Even after more than three hundred years, You Wu still hates this war god who has destroyed his country.
Without him, the Wu Kingdom would not have been destroyed! Without him, they would not have been forcibly summoned back by the Holy Son! Without him, they would not have to hide in the dark like rats in the gutter and endure for three hundred years!
You Wu looked at General Xie with bloodshot eyes, as if there were thousands of knives hidden in his eyes, and he wished he could stab General Xie with thousands of holes.
"Shut up!" Madam Xie stood in front of General Xie and shouted angrily, "When the two countries were at war, everyone served their own masters. What did my husband do wrong? The one who ordered the massacre was the dog emperor's men, not my husband!"
"Every wrong has its perpetrator. Why don't you go and settle accounts with that dog emperor, but insist on holding on to my husband? What's the logic? You are just bullying the weak and fearing the strong! You also killed countless descendants of my Xie family and almost wiped out our clan. We have not yet settled this account with you."
"Almost?" You Wu said with regret, "It seems that it is still a little short."
Mrs. Xie was almost mad with rage upon seeing this. She no longer cared about her noble lady's behavior and looked around for the weapon, as if she was going to fight You Wu to the death.
However, he did not notice that General Xie beside him was in a very abnormal condition.
He muttered, "So I really killed innocent people? Is this retribution? Is this retribution for killing innocent people in my lifetime?"
"You are obsessed." Song Tang took out a mind-concentrating talisman and stuck it on General Xie. "You didn't kill innocent people, but the resentment of innocent people. The ones who really killed them and caused their souls to scatter were You Wu and the ghosts of other Wu people. They should be the ones who suffer retribution."
Song Tang half-knelt beside You Wu and spoke word by word, "You said General Xie fought an unjust war, but what about you? Who of the people who died in your hands deserved to die? You are so distressed by the death of Wu Hong."
"Those who have also lost their family members don't know that their loved ones are not only dead, but their souls have been scattered! They are gone forever! Do they deserve it? This is the justice you claim to be? Your justice, your unwillingness, why should you let others pay with their lives!"
You Wu seemed to be shocked by Song Tang's words. He murmured, "I, we have no choice, and we don't want to do this. We have been reborn again and again, and our lives are worse than death. Do you think we want this?"
"Don't want to?" Song Tang sneered, "If you don't want to, why don't you just die?"
You Wu's lips moved several times.
Why not die? Because if he died, his soul would be scattered. Compared with the scattered soul, he would rather live in pain.
"They are innocent, but are we not innocent?" You Wu was stripped of his last fig leaf and finally became angry. "We were destroyed and could not rest in peace after death. We were forcibly called back. Now we have become madmen and monsters who are neither human nor ghost. Who can uphold justice for us?"
You Wu's chest heaved violently due to his excitement.
Song Tang looked at him without saying anything, his eyes full of sarcasm.
You Wu was stunned for a moment. Yes, the ones who really caused them to become like this were never outsiders!
