1433. Concealing the sky and crossing the sea [23]
Many people even began to tell us how the Heavenly Lord would punish them, and they would beat them to pieces. The rumors were vivid, as if they were listening to the Heavenly Lord with their own ears.
Rumors were like tigers. At first, it was just privately discussed, but later it became a ruthless criticizing Zhuge Canglan for raising his own value. Regardless of the lives and death of the people on Lingxu Island, he actually dared to disobey the divine will of the Emperor of Heaven, so that they would implicate them and die together.
People are selfish, and their lives have nothing to do with them. If a neighbor’s house is caught in a fire, as long as the fire does not hit his own house, how many people will really go up and help.
but……
When others are in danger of their own interests, or may be in danger, it is another situation.
When Zhuge Canglan was still resting in the room, he didn't know that the people outside could already throw her into pieces.
When Gu Shi Zhenjun heard this rumor, he was discussing with the elders to divide the inner disciples he was going to take away into five groups, led by several of them. Gu Shi Zhenjun didn't care much at that time. After all, everyone knew about the matter of the Heavenly King sending the Immortal Officials yesterday, and this matter was indeed unrelated to Zhuge Canglan, so it was not surprising that there was such a rumor.
The Lord Gu Shi Zhenjun waved his hand to ask his brother to step down, "Oh, it's not their fault. Some complaints are inevitable, but this matter must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise... I'm afraid something will happen."
Changmei Yuanjun comforted: "Don't be too anxious, we will all be safe. Although Canglan is wrong, she is making up for it. Besides, she is innocent. The Heavenly Lord may have just found the wrong person. That master or something is not Canglan at all."
The Lord Gu Shi Zhenjun patted Chang Mei Yuanjun on the shoulder, and then everyone lowered their heads to continue discussing.
But... the True Lord Gu Shi never thought that after they finished saying this, the rumor would become more and more intense, so fast that it could not be solved.
At that time, everyone was panicked and had no mood to practice. Most of them gathered outside, talking in groups of three or three about when the punishment of the Heavenly Lord would be reduced, or resent Zhuge Canglan.
Suddenly, someone raised his arms and shouted: "We are all human beings, and they are all brothers and sons of Lingxu Island. We are here to practice Taoism, not to be victims. Why do Zhuge Canglan's own sins have to be paid with her? Is it because she is the granddaughter of the head? She is alone, but we have thousands of them. We don't want to die with her. As long as we hand her over and give it to the Heavenly Lord, we can escape the disaster."
After this sound, he suddenly fell into a dead silence, but soon, someone responded immediately.
Only a sharp female voice heard a harsh reminder: "Yes, let's not die. Zhuge Canglan should take responsibility for his own work. If we hand over her, we will have a way out."
There was one, and there were two. One person spoke out, provoking the resentment and hope for life in the hearts of everyone present, so more people met.
The crowd gradually gathered together, and protests from men and women began to spread one after another.
"She became a turtle with a head-shrinking turtle and didn't know where to run away. We had pity but we were going to sit here and wait for death. Is there any fairness in this world? Why can she survive but we will die?"
