The chivalrous spirit is fickle

"Ha, you said the murderer didn't take the internal organs with him, then tell me where the internal organs are."

Shi Gu glanced at the man and ignored him. Instead, he turned and walked to the table in the room, picked up the teapot on the table, opened the lid, and then turned the whole teapot upside down.

With a muffled sound, a mass of rotten meat poured out of the teapot. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be lungs cut into thin slices.

"hiss……"

Everyone gasped in shock, their faces twitching as they looked at the lungs being cut into thin slices.

Shi Gu straightened the upside-down teacup on the table, only to see that the bottom of the cup was stained with blood, leaving a red turbid mark.

"The murderer did not take the internal organs away, but ate them all, then cut the lungs into slices and soaked them in the teapot."

As he spoke, Shi Gu picked up a slice of lung and raised his eyebrows.

"The lungs are cooked. I think I used my Qi to heat up the teapot and cook it."

"He enjoyed it very much. He slowly soaked the lungs into blood tea and drank it cup after cup until only the liver was left."

Everyone felt a chill down their spine when they heard this, as if they saw a person with a bloody mouth, sitting timidly at the table, drinking tea slowly.

"How did you know there were lungs in the teapot?"

Someone couldn't help but ask Shi Gu, their eyes full of suspicion. After all, Shi Gu found the organs in the teapot after just a few glances.

It looked like he did it.

Upon hearing this, Shi Gu explained to everyone very seriously.

"Have you carefully checked the wound? There is a big hole in Xiang Zhiwei's chest, and the flesh has become stringy."

"But have you ever thought about where the flesh and blood that was dissected went?"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned and turned to look at Xiang Zhiwei's body, feeling their scalps tingling.

Yes, where did the flesh and blood that was dug out go?

Shi Gu returned to the corpse, squatted down and spoke softly.

"The murderer didn't use any weapons. His nails were very long and hard, sharper than swords. After killing the tail, he tore the flesh and blood into pieces with his hands and ate them."

"The flesh and blood was eaten up, so naturally no traces were left."

"Look again, this room is in a mess, with blood splattered everywhere, but there are no signs of a fight. However, the blood is the most near the table. Even a fool can see the problem."

“The bottom line is, I’ve met a lot of people like this.”

Upon hearing this, some in the crowd were convinced, some were skeptical, and some did not believe it at all.

"I think you are the murderer. We were all drinking together last night. Only Master Jiushi and his apprentice, and you, a weird guy, were not there."

"It's hard to say, but the three of you teamed up to kill Brother Xiang, and you came here again today to get rid of all suspicion."

Shi Gu was speechless. He turned to look at the man and said.

"Your mother raised a placenta. If I were the murderer, why would I not have come here at all? Why would I have taken the initiative to board the ship and be suspected by a placenta like you?"

The man's breath was choked, and he said angrily with anger and rage.

"You came here to clear the suspicion for Jiushi and his apprentice. Otherwise, why don't you ask Jiushi and his apprentice to tell us where they went last night?"

Hearing this, Jiu Shi and Zhao Gong in the crowd looked at each other and could only sigh. It seemed that they really had to tell what happened last night, otherwise they would not be able to clear themselves of suspicion and would also drag Shi Gu into the quagmire.

Shi Gu couldn't help but roll his eyes. When someone wants to frame you, they will really connect everything together and use it as evidence of the false accusation.

This person probably had some grudge against Master Jiushi and his apprentice. Shigu didn't know about the grudge between them, but he insisted on dragging Shigu into it and throwing dirty water on him together.

Shi Gu was not good at explaining, he thought he was tongue-tied, so he spoke to the man.

"I have a way to prove my innocence."

The man sneered and said.

"If you have, then you should say it."

As soon as the man finished speaking, a big hand suddenly came and pinched his neck. The man was shocked and wanted to struggle, but found that his true energy had been forcibly dispersed and he could not exert any strength.

Shi Gu pinched the man's neck and spoke gently.

"This method is that I will kill you directly to prove that if I want to kill someone, I will never hide it."

"If one person doesn't believe in me, I will kill that person. If everyone doesn't believe in me, I will kill you all."

Chapter 22: Ogre (Part 2)

"If one person doesn't believe in me, I will kill that person. If everyone doesn't believe in me, I will kill you all."

The man had difficulty breathing, but he gritted his teeth and glared at Shi Gu fiercely, saying in a deep voice.

"You...you don't even count as proof."

Shi Gu thought about it and loosened his hand. The man fell to the ground, gasping for breath. He wanted to say a few more harsh words, but saw Shi Gu leaning down and looking at him coldly.

The man suddenly felt cold and his face shuddered. The feeling of suffocation had not yet dissipated, and he even felt a sense of relief for surviving a disaster.

Shi Gu stretched out his hand, gently patted the man's shoulder, and smiled gently.

"You're right, this isn't really proof."

"It's a threat."

"From now on, if you dare to make trouble again, I will really kill you."

The murderous aura filled the air, and the man's eyes twitched, his hands and feet turned cold. He had no doubt that Shi Gu would really do this, and he could only lower his head in humiliation, saying nothing, and using silence to preserve his last bit of dignity.

Among the onlookers, no one stepped forward to help. They could see that the man was just taking advantage of the situation, but now someone had died and they might be in danger as well. How could they be willing to accompany this man in making trouble?

Especially since Shi Gu pointed out things that they had not noticed so clearly and concisely, everyone could not help but regard Shi Gu as the backbone.

"Brother, you said you have seen many people who are similar to the murderer. May I ask what those people you are talking about are?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Gu stood up and whispered to the person who asked the question?

"Isn't the answer obvious? Besides monsters, what else would eat people?"

Hearing this, everyone was shocked. Even though they had guessed it in their hearts, they couldn't help but feel a little nervous after hearing this answer.

After all, these people are just a group of seventh-rank warriors, and they have not occupied a high position in the martial arts world. They may know the existence of monsters, but have never actually seen one. Naturally, they are afraid of those legendary monsters.

"What...what should I do?"

"Why don't we turn back to the ancient city? There is a Buddhist master in the ancient city, and no monster dares to go there."

"It's ridiculous. We set out with such a grand fanfare, but now we're going back in disgrace. How can we live in disgrace in the future?"

Another dispute broke out among the crowd. Some wanted to go back, while others did not want to lose face, so they started arguing.

Shi Gu ignored the quarreling crowd and just observed Xiang Zhiwei's body again.

Well, a fatal blow, it should be a claw that broke through the flesh and grabbed the heart. A dignified seventh-grade warrior had no power to resist, and he didn't even have time to scream. The opponent was either a ninth-grade realm or an eighth-grade peak warrior, who had ambushed in the room long ago.

Shi Gu thought so and looked around. The room was not big, and there was actually only one place where he could ambush, and that was under the bed.

Zhao Gong stood in the quarreling crowd with a frown on his face. His master Jiu Shi was urging Jin Buwan to drive the boat back to the ancient city. Although he was a face-conscious person, he did not regard it as more important than his life.

Everyone was talking at once, but it was hard to get any conclusion. Zhao Gong was not annoyed and squeezed out of the crowd and walked towards Shi Gu. He saw Shi Gu striding towards the bed, squatting down and looking under the bed.

Zhao Gong curiously moved closer, squatted beside Shi Gu and looked under the bed. But when he saw what was underneath the bed clearly, he felt a chill all over his body and his pupils shrank slightly.

I saw a bloodstain under the bed, with a half-bitten liver left. A strong smell of blood hit me in the face, and a line of bloody words were left.

"I'm looking at you, guess where I am?"

Zhao Gong felt a chill all over his body, and in a trance he seemed to sense that there was a pair of teasing eyes outside the crowd, looking at his back, which was creepy.

However, after Shi Gu took a look at the bloody words left behind, he made this comment.

"Silly egg."

In Shi Gu's opinion, only a fool would dare to leave behind such a scary thing. Bluffing might be useful to others, but to Shi Gu, it was a bit childish.

He has killed even big demons, so how dare a small demon play this trick in front of him? Who is he trying to scare?

As Shi Gu was thinking this, he turned around and saw Zhao Gong, whose face was pale. He rolled his eyes and slapped Zhao Gong on the head.

"What are you afraid of? You are a seventh-grade martial artist after all. Are you afraid of blood?"

Zhao Gong came back to his senses and felt a little ashamed. He had never seen a demon before, so he was quite afraid of it. Naturally, he could not compare with Shi Gu. He smiled bitterly and said to Shi Gu.

"Senior, I just... felt something was looking at me."

Shi Gu slapped Zhao Gong on the head again and said.

"Can you be more thoughtful? If that thing had dared to come out and look at us just now, I would have beaten his brains out."

"Isn't it just a monster?"

Zhao Gong smiled bitterly, but in his heart he was thinking that this senior was really outspoken. Wasn't he afraid of being targeted by the monster hiding in the dark?

No matter how powerful the senior is, he probably can't kill a seventh-grade warrior silently like that demon.

Shi Gu stood up, clapped his hands, and spoke to the people who were still arguing.

"What are you arguing about? This monster will definitely attack again. The ship has been sailing all night. Even if you return now, it will be enough time for this monster to kill you all and eat you slowly."

Upon hearing this, the quarreling crowd fell into silence, and fear gradually spread among the crowd.

"Then...then what should we do?"

Someone anxiously asked Shigu for help, but was glared back by Shigu.

"What else can I do? Of course I have to find this little bastard and chop him up a hundred or eighty times. I can vent my anger."

Everyone was stunned and looked at Shi Gu with strange eyes.

This guy is so brave, how come he has no fear at all towards the man-eating monster?

Shi Gu looked at the nervous expressions of the crowd and couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.

"He hid under the bed and attacked, which proves that he doesn't dare to deal with all of you. In this case, what is there to be afraid of with so many of you?"

"From now on, you will be in groups of two. Make sure you travel together. If a monster attacks, you can call for help in time. The monster will be afraid of the consequences and will definitely choose to escape."

Hearing this, everyone felt relieved and finally no longer so nervous. Shi Gu walked to Xiang Zhiwei's body, thought about it carefully, and used his hand as a knife. Just as he was about to chop off Xiang Zhiwei's head, a muffled sound was heard outside the house.

Bang! With a muffled sound, a figure broke through the door and flew out, causing everyone to be instantly alert. They all activated their skills and focused their attention.

After a while, the dust settled and a middle-aged man fell to the ground, groaning in pain. Jin Buwan was stunned and said in a lost voice.

"Manager Liu?"

The middle-aged man on the ground was the manager of this ship, Liu Li.

At this time, a figure rushed in. It was Shen Yue. She kicked Manager Liu. Liu Li wailed in pain and asked Jin Buwan for help.

"Help, Master."

Shi Gu's eyes flashed, he walked over quickly, grabbed Shen Yue who was beating Manager Liu, and asked.

"What happened?"

Jin Buwan hurriedly helped Manager Liu up and asked with the same frown.

"What happened, Manager Liu?"

Manager Liu had a bruised face and nose, and he loudly accused Jin Buwan.

"Master, I have never met this person before and have no grudge against him. I was disciplining a servant when he attacked me."

"You have to make the decision for me!"

When Jin Buwan heard this, his expression changed and he looked at Shen Yue with an unfriendly look. However, when Shen Yue heard this, she frowned and shouted at Manager Liu.

"Every time I see a wicked person like you, I will beat him up. No one can help me."

Hearing this, Jin Buwan snorted coldly, waved his sleeves angrily, stood in front of Manager Liu, and spoke coldly to Shen Yue.

"My brother, Manager Liu is from my Jin Mansion. You are behaving like this, as if there is no one in my Jin Mansion?"

"If you apologize, then this matter will be fine. If not, don't blame me, Jin Buwan, for being merciless."

Shi Gu grabbed Shen Yue who was about to continue taking action and asked.

"Stop arguing and tell me what happened."

Shen Yue glared at Jin Buwan fiercely, then turned around and spoke to Shi Gu indignantly.
