Chapter 571: The Roots


The Peacock King nodded, and vanished.

The postponement of the Peacock King was expected by him, and the degree needed to change a person's heart and even nature, which was not an overnight effort, and the reason why he had to set a seven-day period that day was to have a tooth chip exchanged with the Peacock King when he encountered difficulties that he had never thought of in advance.

Although he could use force, Mo Wen did not immediately go to punish Murong Zhenxiong, it was the next policy, it would cause Murong Zhenxiong's disgust and resistance, if Murong Zhenxiong was angry and crazy, he could only punish him severely, and he could not really take his life, if Murong Zhenxiong noticed this, he would have no fear, let alone know his mistake and change it.

After pondering for a long time, Mo Wen decided to continue persuasion and not do it for the time being.

Murong Zhenxiong went outside the city in the afternoon and personally slashed and killed the prisoners, and most of the criminals who should have been beheaded in the autumn were killed by him in the past few days.

Mo Wen appeared in the law field in the east of the city, and at this time, more than a dozen prisoners were all killed, and their bodies were incomplete, and their bodies were in the wild.

When Murong Zhenxiong saw Mo Wen coming, he was very nervous, raised his hand and ordered his subordinates to return first, and walked alone to the shore where Mo Wen was.

The Dharma field is usually set up on the bank of the river, this is because the river water and sand can reduce the anger of the deceased, Murong Zhenxiong went to Mo Wen and gave his hand first, "I have seen a real person." ” Mo Wen raised his eyebrows and glanced at Murong Zhenxiong, although Murong Zhenxiong was older than him, he was like a timid child in front of him, seeing that he was dissatisfied between his eyebrows, he bowed his head cowardly, in the past few days, he sent someone to inquire about Mo Wen's situation, knowing that Mo Wen had become an immortal, and in the face of immortals, he did not dare to be ruthless and presumptuous.

When Mo Wen saw Murong Zhenxiong bowing his head, he did not reprimand, but sat on the sand dunes on the shore, Murong Zhenxiong saw him sit down, knowing that he would not make a move, his heart was light, and he arched his hand and said, "Real person, these people are all death row prisoners. ” "I didn't come here to punish you this time, you tell me frankly, why is it difficult to calm down the murderous thoughts in your heart?"

asked Mo Wen.

Murong Zhenxiong frowned slightly when he heard this, but did not answer.

Mo asked if he saw it sincerely, Murong Zhenxiong's frown was not resistance and disgust, but doubts, indicating that he didn't know why he was so cruel.

"Since when did you start to like killing and killing" Mo Wen asked, Murong Zhenxiong's expression showed that this person was not without remorse, but for some reason he couldn't control the killing thoughts in his heart.

Murong Zhenxiong was thoughtful and did not answer.

Mo Wen did not urge, waited patiently, immortals are different from Taoists, Taoists are still people in the eyes of mortals, but immortals are no longer human in the eyes of mortals, they are a powerful divine existence that can change everything, and in the face of immortals, mortals will have a sense of awe.

Murong Zhenxiong pondered for a long time, and said, "Thirty years ago, I became the commander of the army. ” "Killing enemies on the battlefield is not on the list, since when did you start drinking human flesh?"

asked Mo Wen.

"Nine years ago."

Murong Zhenxiong said.

"Why did it start" Mo asked again and again, Murong Zhenxiong has been stationed in Woma County for eight years, in other words, his bad habit of killing and cannibalism began a year before he came to Woma County, Murong Zhenxiong is nearly fifty years old, and he has not eaten people for more than forty years, indicating that he was not born like this, but something happened the day after tomorrow that caused his heart to be distorted.

Murong Zhenxiong shook his head.

Mo Wen didn't ask any more questions, and Murong Zhenxiong looked very dazed when he shook his head, which showed that he was not deliberately concealing it, but he didn't know why.

"Where were you nine years ago?"

asked Mo.

"Dragon City."

Murong Zhenxiong replied.

"What have you done" Mo asked, Dragon City was the capital of Yan Kingdom.

"The first emperor died, the new emperor ascended the throne, and our royal family members are busy with funeral matters."

Murong Zhenxiong said.

"Who are you Murong Hongxiang" Mo asked again, Murong Hongxiang was the princess of Yan Kingdom, that is, the daughter of the late emperor of Yan Kingdom.

"Cousin."

Murong Zhenxiong replied.

Mo Wen nodded when he heard this, Murong Zhenxiong's father was the emperor's brother, and the current emperor was his cousin.

"When did the emperor die?"

asked Mo again and again.

"At the beginning of the year."

Murong Zhenxiong replied.

"When was the first time you ate people" Mo asked again and again, if Murong Zhenxiong knew what caused him to become so brutal, he would have said it a long time ago, since he didn't know it himself, then he could only ask in detail.

Murong Zhenxiong glanced at Mo Wen and did not answer.

Mo Wen didn't urge, Murong Zhenxiong's expression showed that he clearly remembered the date of the first cannibalism, but he didn't want to say it.

There was silence for a long time, and this time there was a stick of incense, and Murong Zhenxiong didn't speak.

Mo Wen still didn't urge, Murong Zhenxiong knew that he was waiting for an answer, and he also knew that he would not give up if he didn't say the answer.

"One hundred days after the death of the first emperor, I killed the eunuch who passed the decree and cooked it."

Murong Zhenxiong finally said the date of the first cannibalism.

Mo Wenyan's heart brightened, although he didn't know the specific reason, but there were important clues, many countries will have a hundred days of fasting after the emperor's death, accumulating yin virtue for the first emperor and expressing the sacrifice to the first emperor, to be exact, it is not fasting, fasting is a word only after Buddhism was introduced to Middle-earth, but the emperor died, and the rule of the people to eat vegetarian for 100 days had long before Buddhism was introduced to Middle-earth.

During the period when meat should not be eaten, Murong Zhenxiong broke the rules and ate the inner servants who passed the decree, which showed that Murong Zhenxiong was very dissatisfied with the emperor.

"You go home first."

Mo asked Murong Zhenxiong and said.

Murong Zhenxiong nodded when he heard this, turned around and walked west.

Some words can be asked directly to Murong Zhenxiong, and some words cannot be asked directly to him, after Murong Zhenxiong left, Mo Wen teleported to the capital of Yan Kingdom, found the City God Temple, sat quietly in the dark, and pinched the trick to summon the Dragon City City God.

The status of the city god is higher than that of the land, if judged by the rank of the yang official, the city god belongs to the fourth to fifth rank of the yin official in the Yin Division, and the status is not lower than that of black and white impermanence, but this person is extremely thoughtful to Mo Wen, the reason is very simple, Mo Wen is the husband of Yin Si Jieyu.

"I don't know why the real person summoned the officials to come," Chenghuang asked after the ceremony.

"Poor Dao and a Buddhist monk compare the ability of the Buddha to save people, there is a wicked person who is the cousin of the Emperor of Yanguo, this person is named Murong Zhenxiong, the poor Dao wants to transform this person, I don't know what Linggong thinks about this person" Mo asked straight to the point.

Don't ask, Chenghuang shook his head and sighed, Mo Wen secretly asked the right person when he saw this, Chenghuang is also an immortal, and he knows everything about the people and things within his jurisdiction.

Cheng Huang sighed and said, "If it weren't for the great sin of murder, this person would be considered a loyal man." ” Mo Wen was surprised when he heard this, "Why did Linggong say this?"

"This person is very brave, won the weight of the first emperor, at the age of twenty, he worshiped the general, commanded the army to the border, stationed in the cold pass of Yan State all the year round, the first emperor died, thirteen princes with the surname rebelled, disobeyed the edict, tried to promote the princess Murong Hongjiao to the throne as the empress, the prince issued an edict ordering the three generals to return to the division of King Qin, the two generals of the east and west delayed for some reason, only Murong Zhenxiong led 30,000 iron horsemen to return in the starry night, and defeated the thieves in a series of bloody battles, so that the prince was able to successfully ascend the throne."

At this point, the city god stopped.

"What's going on" Mo asked, although Murong Hongxiang is a woman, she has always held heavy troops and guarded the southern gateway of Yan Kingdom, although she has been defeated by him many times, her prestige in Yan Country is high.

"Murong Zhenxiong's father, who is over the age of six, is also among the rebellions."

Chenghuang said.

"Murong Zhenxiong killed his father" Mo Wen frowned and asked, the princes are different from the governors of the festival, most of the princes have their own surnames and have their own fiefs, while the generals are court officials and have no fixed fiefs.

Hearing this, Chenghuang shook his head, "On that day, Murong Zhenxiong took down his father and a group of princes, escorted the palace to the emperor, and the emperor decreed that everyone would be beheaded, and his father was not spared, and his mother was seriously ill, and she passed away soon after this accident. ” Mo Wen frowned when he heard this, what the Emperor of Yan did was not proper, others can kill him, Murong Zhenxiong's father should not be killed, no one can really kill his relatives in righteousness, Murong Zhenxiong does not want his father to be beheaded, the reason why he tied his father to the palace was just for show, he thought that the emperor would forgive his father, but what he didn't expect was that the emperor didn't do that.

"After the emperor killed the rebellion, he rewarded Murong Zhenxiong, added officials to the knighthood, entrusted him with important tasks, and sent him to the Xiguan border garrison.

However, the emperor did not trust this man, and left his two children in the capital, and called the inner officials really protons.

Chenghuang shook his head and said.

"This Emperor of Yan is really mediocre, if he doesn't behead his father, Murong Zhenxiong will not be able to die," Mo Wen shook his head and said.

"The real person doesn't know it, the emperor's heart can't be guessed by the heart of ordinary people, and afterwards, the emperor and the empress whispered, revealing the mystery, the reason why he killed Murong Gu was because he was worried that Murong Gu would provoke Murong Zhenxiong to rebel afterwards."

Chenghuang shook his head and said.

"It's still mediocre, imagine that if Murong Zhenxiong really had the intention of rebellion, he wouldn't have returned to Shiqin King back then."

Mo Wen said, at this time he finally found the root of Murong Zhenxiong's illness, he killed his father with a thought, and now the two sons are in the hands of the emperor, if they rebel, the two sons will die, if they do not rebel, they are extremely depressed in their hearts, and this depression and depression make him always in an extremely depressed state.

Hearing this, Chenghuang shook his head and smiled bitterly, not committal.

"Thank you Linggong for your doubts."

Mo asked Chong Chenghuang to thank him.

Chenghuang returned the salute, and Mo Wen teleported away.

Back in Woma County, Murong Zhenxiong was sitting alone in his study, reviewing the files, this person was not slacking off on official affairs, and would review the files sent by the government and the military camp every night.

Seeing Mo Wen appear, Murong Zhenxiong put down his brush and stood up straight, "I've seen a real person." ” "General Murong, if you miss Ling Lang, Poor Dao can bring them here at any time."

Mo asked Zhengse to say.

Murong Zhenxiong looked puzzled when he heard this, hesitated for a moment and shook his head, "This is a border place, there are often wars, and dogs should not come here." ” "Poor Dao has been to Dragon City earlier, and has seen the city gods there, and knows what happened nine years ago, if you want, you can raise an army at any time."

Mo asked.

Murong Zhenxiong looked at Mo Wen directly when he heard this, and shook his head after a long time, "As a courtier, how can you do that rebellious thing?"

"You don't want to avenge your father," Mo Wen asked, raising an eyebrow.

Murong Zhenxiong nodded, then shook his head again:
