Bring some shock to the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 28 Extorting Confessions Through Torture!

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes."

When the man heard Zhou Li's words, he was terrified at first, and then nodded quickly, for fear that his frequency of clicking was not fast enough to make the master Jin Yiwei unhappy, and his family's heads would be all over the floor.

"Then just take a deep breath and say slowly, what's the name of this place, okay?"

Zhou Li's kindness made the man breathe a little bit. He avoided Guo Lingyun's complicated eyes and looked at Zhou Li as if seeing a savior. After swallowing, he said:
"This, this is Shanshen Village."

"Ah, Mountain God Village."

Zhou Li suddenly realized, and then he asked:
"I see that you are dressed very luxuriously, and the silk, satin, gold and silver jewelry on your body is more luxurious than that of the Xie family in Shangjing. Do you have your own business?"

Hearing Zhou Li's question, the man rolled his eyes subconsciously, then nodded again and again, and said, "To tell you the truth, I do have some business in Beiliang City, selling some barbarian rouge and powder. Have family assets."

Zhou Li nodded when he heard the words, and then he suddenly waved his hand, grabbed Tang Wan's arm, turned his head, and said earnestly:

"Tang Wan, don't be so cruel. Didn't they lie to us because they didn't tell the truth? There is no need for you to cut off his internal organs with Yin-Cold Poison, then use Heat Powder to break through his five senses, and finally destroy his body. It’s unreasonable to cut open your lower body and stuff it with beeswax to light up sky lanterns.”

Although he didn't know what happened, Tang Wan nodded subconsciously.Zhou Li withdrew his hand, looked at the man whose face was washed with cold sweat, and said with a smile:
"Go on, you go on."

"No, no, no, I don't have a living. I'm just a lazy man who is greedy and lazy. He doesn't farm and doesn't know how to do business. In addition to sleeping, he just eats. I was confused and said the wrong thing just now. Sir Haihan, sir Haihan!"

Looking at the man who wanted to kneel in the air and kowtow to him, Zhou Li nodded in satisfaction, then he patted the other man's shoulder, touched the other's fine silk and satin, and said with emotion:

"The material of this robe is Sichuan satin. I remember that my mother wanted to buy me one before. When I saw that one actually cost three taels of gold, I quickly dissuaded her and bought a piece of silk."

Zhou Li turned around suddenly, and nodded to the dazed Guo Lingyun.Seeing the man's dazed expression, Zhou Li smiled and said:
"Our Baihu means, do you still want a mother?"

"Think, think."

The man came to his senses and cried and said, "Don't, don't, I'll say anything, I'll say everything, if I lose my mother, I'll be a useless person, I'll definitely starve to death on the street, don't cut me off, I won't do anything become."

"Then tell me."

Zhou Li put away his friendly smile and peaceful tone, stood up straight, and asked calmly, "Where did you get the money for your clothes? What were you doing just now? What is this mountain god? What is it?"

Weakly slumped on the tree, the man hung his head, his face full of frustration, and after organizing his words, the man spoke eloquently.

This village was not called Shanshen Village 60 years ago because it was surrounded by water on three sides and most of the villagers made a living by fishing, so the village was called Shuili Village.

For a long time, this village has always been in a bitter cold area. First, it is far away from the town, so it cannot sell live fish but only cheap salted fish.Second, the village is surrounded by water on three sides, and the bridge has not been built because of poverty. Therefore, people in the village have to walk through the water if they want to go out. Once the river tide rises or the mud subsides, they will die.

Later, a mountain fire burned this impoverished village to nothing. Only less than thirty people escaped from the village. The rest either died in the fire or were killed while crossing the river. Swallowed by the river.

The thirty or so people who escaped were living outside. They had no skills, and everything in their homes was burned to the ground. Therefore, these people who escaped were not human beings, ghosts or ghosts. They could only live in some villages and towns. begging for a living.

And all turning points must start with the mountain god.

These thirty or so people were impoverished, hungry and full all day long, with nothing to cover their bodies and food to eat, but in such a miserable situation, none of them died miraculously.

On a cold winter day, these people suddenly heard a voice from far away.The voice told them that your Shuili village was poor and poor before, it was because you believed in the vicious river, but forgot the sacred mountain you backed.If you want to return to your hometown, come and worship the mountain god.

After these people heard these words, they frantically rushed towards their former hometown like a demon.At this time, they found that even though they hadn't eaten for dozens of days, drank only dirty water, and slept in the cold snow at night, they were still alive and unscathed. Belief.

Soon after, they gathered in the ruins burned by the mountain fire, and then they saw the mountain god.

The face is white and beardless, the waist is wrapped in gold, and the feet are silver.

Among the broken bricks and broken tiles, a bright and clean stone sculpture stood quietly on top of the charred skeleton.The Maitreya-like kind mountain god shone with golden light under the worshiping eyes of these people, and then used the power of the mountain god to restore the entire village and build a stone bridge over the river.

After distributing the gold bars on his waist to these thirty or so people, the mountain god disappeared into the mountains and forests.Relying on the gold bars donated by the mountain god, these thirty people quickly started running the village, and at the same time changed Shuili Village into Shanshen Village.

If it's just here, it's just an ordinary folk tale.But 30 years later, after these 30 people died, everything changed quietly.

First, a stone bridge collapsed, killing more than twenty villagers.Then the mountains collapsed, crushing several houses and killing two families.Another evil tiger in the forest came down to kill, and the mosquitoes became bloodthirsty and cruel. For a time, the entire mountain god village was in panic, and everyone was worried about their own safety.

Suddenly, on the same day that Shanshen Village was established, the statue of Shanshen reappeared in Shanshen Village.At this time, the statue of the mountain god was dilapidated, and the original gold and silver disappeared, replaced by a painful face and a mutilated body.He told everyone in the village that in order to save the village, he had given all his gold and silver to the village.

At the beginning, those 30 people remembered his kindness and kept offering incense to the temple. But later, 30 people left. The latecomers thought it was just a legend, so the mountain temple was also abandoned. The mountain god who originally protected one side , also gradually declined.

And he came here this time to tell these mortals that if they no longer worship the mountain god, the mountains will fall and the mountain god village will fall into decay and ruin.

Of course, the mountain god also knew that these people were poor, so he said, as long as you offer me money, I will use my magical powers to make you earn more money.

At first, a few skeptical villagers pooled their money and made offerings to the mountain god.Within two days, these people suddenly appeared in front of everyone again, looking very glamorous in their gold and silver.

Since then, people in Shanshen Village have regarded the statues of Shanshen as recreating their parents, offering them continuously and earning money.

Later, people discovered that as long as they throw money to the mountain god, wealth will continue to flow.

A steady stream.
