I Eat Monsters In the Town Monster

"oh?"

Qin Shaoyou originally thought he would gain nothing, but unexpectedly, he got an unexpected surprise.

He followed the sound and saw the person who spoke.

This is a man in his sixties with gray hair and a large bald area in the middle.

Jayakala also heard this man's words and seemed a little stunned and panicked.

He hurriedly turned around and scolded in a low voice: "Gu Luozhi, are you desperate for your life? Lying and deceiving a noble person is a capital crime! You want to die yourself, don't drag us down."

The minister of Chenla named Guluozhi was not frightened by Jayakala's words.

Seeing Qin Shaoyou looking at him, he kowtowed repeatedly: "Admiral, it is clear that the guilty minister swears to God that he will never lie! Otherwise, if the sky strikes with thunder, he will die without any regrets."

This man really wasn't lying.

Qin Shaoyou could see clearly with [Bright Eyes], and even used [Listening] to monitor the man's heartbeat, but found no abnormalities.

Unless this person is strong enough to hide from Qin Shaoyou's meticulous observation, he is definitely not lying.

As for Sayakalu's attempt to stop this person, he didn't have any other intentions.

Qin Shaoyou could tell from the change in Sayakalu's expression that he did not know about this matter.

Zhu Xiucai even smiled sarcastically.

He guessed the whole story at the first moment, leaned into Qin Shaoyou's ear, and whispered: "Duke Gong, it seems that the hearts of the people in Zhenla Court have been completely dispersed."

Qin Shaoyou thought about it for a moment, understood it, and nodded slightly.

On the other hand, Jayakala, after hearing Gu Luo Zhi's oath pointing to heaven and earth, failed to react and was still asking in surprise:

"Do you really know the origin of the hibiscus tree? Why didn't you tell me before?"

However, Gu Luozhi ignored him at all and just admired Qin Shaoyou deeply.

After being stunned for a moment, Sayakala also reacted.

Gu Luozhi didn't tell him this matter just to gain performance in front of the admiral of the Xia Kingdom Editing Factory at this time!

He wants to take the credit alone!

Sayaka's face instantly darkened to the extreme, making him very ugly.

But he didn't dare to get angry and reprimand Gu Luozhi.

After all, the person who has the final say here is not him, but the governor of the Xia Kingdom Editing Factory!

Not to mention, after surrendering to the Xia Kingdom, Gu Luozhi was no longer a subject of their Sheye clan.

Sayakala can be sure that even if he reprimands Gu Luozhi now, the other party will not listen to him honestly.

He could not help but quarrel with him, which completely disgraced the royal family of Zhenla.

Of course, the Chenla royal family now has no face.

Just when Sayakalu's expression was changing, Qin Shaoyou spoke.

At this time, Sayakalu did not dare to rebuke Gu Luozhi anymore, and could only hold back his anger angrily.

Qin Shaoyou was not interested in what Sayakala thought. He just looked at Gu Luozhi and asked:

"Why do you say that hibiscus trees are likely to come from the East China Sea?"

"Reply to the Admiral."

Gu Luozhi ignored Sheyakalu who was gnashing his teeth at the side, straightened up, cupped his hands and replied:

"In the fifth year of Xinqing, a merchant offered treasures and asked to see the king.

Because the treasures presented by the merchant were too many, the king was very happy and received him.

What was said between them, no one knows.

Afterwards, the merchant disappeared, and no one knew where he went.

After the king met with the merchant, he sent all the maids, eunuchs and guards who were waiting at the side to the Cave of the Ten Thousand Gods.

Since then, there has been no news from these people.

Externally, it is said that these people were inspired by the gods and became monks and practiced in the Cave of the Gods. However, when their families found the Cave of the Gods, they were blocked outside and were not allowed to meet inside.

After the maritime merchants disappeared, the king began to recruit civilians on a large scale, saying that he wanted to renovate the Cave of the Ten Thousand Gods, and even levied a heavy tax specifically for this purpose.

Although the guilty minister had never seen the appearance of the hibiscus tree, Prince Jayabamo and Roshini Shangshu, who came back with the order, mentioned that the hibiscus tree was hidden in the altar of the Cave of the Ten Thousand Gods.

The sinner thought, the fusang tree is the legendary sacred tree. It must be so tall that it cannot be compared with ordinary trees flying far away. Otherwise, how can it reach the divine world and reach the netherworld?

For such a big tree, if you want to hide it in the altar without anyone knowing, you must either plant it inside the altar from the beginning and slowly cultivate it.

Either he took advantage of the large-scale renovation of the Cave of the Gods and transported it into the altar, so that he could hide it from others and not be noticed.

Back then, the guilty minister was sent by the king to forcibly collect various materials needed to renovate the Cave of the Ten Thousand Gods.

Because he couldn't bear to see the people suffering, which affected the progress of the conquest, he was disliked by the king and was demoted and given a slap in the face.

Therefore, the guilty minister has a deep memory of this matter. When the Admiral asked about the news related to the hibiscus tree, he remembered this matter..."

When Qin Shaoyou heard this, he understood.

I don’t know if this Gu Luozhi really couldn’t bear the suffering of the people at the beginning, or if he was just incapable of doing things.

But he is definitely a vengeful person.

Because he was incompetent in his work, he was beaten by the leader, and he was forced to remember it for decades...

Qin Shaoyou hadn't said anything yet, but Sayakalu recalled some things when he heard this.

Not wanting Gu Luozhi to perform alone, he hurriedly made amends:

"Sir Admiral, the criminal also remembered something.

My father was originally a benevolent king who cared about the people. After renovating the Cave of the Ten Thousand Gods, his character gradually changed. Not only did he no longer care about the people, he became ruthless and disregarded the lives of the people. He was even bold enough to participate in a war against the Celestial Kingdom.

The guilty minister was thinking, maybe he was bewitched by the evil god when he first met the merchant? "

Is it the fifth year of Xinqing again?

Qin Shaoyou narrowed his eyes slightly and thought quickly in his heart.

Combining all the things that happened around the fifth year of Xinqing, as well as the stories of Gu Luozhi and Sayakaluo, Qin Shaoyou felt that it was really possible that the Fusang Tree was used by the Lord of Zhenla as an excuse to renovate the Cave of the Ten Thousand Gods in the fifth year of Xinqing. , transplanted into the altar.

It was most likely that the leader of the Zhenla Kingdom saw the mad god and was bewitched by him at that time...

Most of the heads of other countries are like this too.

From this point of view, the merchant who claimed to be from the East China Sea was most likely a believer in the mad god.

But where exactly is he from?

The East China Sea is very large, ranging from countries such as Fusang and Korea to islands such as Luzon.

In addition, where did he find the hibiscus tree?

etc.

Qin Shaoyou's eyes suddenly froze.

But he suddenly remembered that the Baize County where the fourth sister and the fourth brother-in-law were located was an important coastal town in the south of the Yangtze River. It was also within the scope of the East China Sea, and there were frequent maritime trade transactions.

So, is there any connection between the origin of the fusang tree and the fact that the fourth sister and fourth brother-in-law were hunted down?

Qin Shaoyou recalled the news that Ao Chou had told him before, saying that those who were chasing the fourth sister and fourth brother-in-law were a group of people who called themselves the Baimu Cult.

Could it be that the multi-eyed god worshiped by the Baimu Cult is the divine skin of the multi-eyed god that he cooked and ate?

Ao Chou also said that the reason why the Baimu Cult wanted to harm the fourth sister and fourth brother-in-law's family was because of a treasure.

Is this treasure related to the hibiscus tree and the mad god?
