Chapter 341 A blow to the head
They don’t know!
When Yin Qing finished saying this, Zhou Yunshu quickly exchanged glances with Wu Gui, and even glanced at Yan Shilei who walked in.
Although they received news along the way south, most of it was from the north. The news from the south came from the manors, but the manors in the southernmost part of the country rarely sent them any news.
Besides, they came to the Mountain Resort and Nanchuan City. One was located on the mountain, and the other was sealed off by Geng Jiang.
The only news they knew was about the massacre in Yuncheng. They had no idea that a plague had broken out in Yuncheng. Zhou Yunshu certainly didn't know about it either. She even didn't know the news from the capital and the north for a while.
Even this group of people who were taken over from Ren Huang had never heard of the plague in Yuncheng. As a result, when they arrived at Baoyun Manor, they were given a heavy blow.
"Where did you get the news?"
“That’s what people outside say.”
Zhou Yunshu exhaled slowly and said to Yan Shilei, "Uncle Yan, send someone to verify."
"yes."
Zhou Yunshu looked at Yin Qing and said to Chunque beside her: "Bring the old and the new here, and then guard their family."
"yes."
After Chunque left, Yin Qing looked at Zhou Yunshu, who was sitting in the main seat, and asked, "Should I continue?"
"Go ahead."
"Will you kill these people from Baoyun Manor?"
If Zhou Yunshu had not intervened today, Yin Qing would have wanted to use the power of the Dragon God to escape from the pole and poison the well while the people in the village were uneasy.
Since they are all poisonous insects in Zhuangzi, it is better to poison them all to death.
Zhou Yunshu shook her head.
"Why!" Yin Qing's voice became a little sharp.
"Because they are all my private property. Have you ever seen anyone complain about having too much private property?"
"But they are just a bunch of useless mud, shit in a cesspool, and a bunch of poisonous insects that only harm crops! They deserve to die!"
"Mud is useful, feces can fertilize the land, and poisonous insects can also be helpful if they are handled properly. Kill them, and someone will take care of the farm for me."
Yin Qing choked and changed her words, "They killed your private property, so why don't you punish them?"
"meeting."
Zhou Yunshu looked at Yin Qing who jumped up excitedly and said to him, "Of course there will be punishment, but punishment does not mean killing them all."
Yin Qing was very smart. His eyes lit up when he heard this. "Not killing them all means you'll still kill people, right?"
Zhou Yunshu did not answer this question because Yan Shilei came in with the new and old ones.
After the old and new came in, they frowned at Yin Qing and Ji Yan who were sitting on the chairs next to them, as if they were very dissatisfied that they could sit with Zhou Yunshu.
The old man knelt on the ground and bowed to Zhou Yunshu, then asked, "I wonder what the master wants from me?"
"When did the Baoyun Manor sacrifice begin?"
When Zhou Yunshu asked the old and new this question, Yan Shilei looked at him seriously. It was obvious that no sacrifices or the like took place during the time when he bought Baoyun Manor and lived there.
As a result, it didn't take long before only half of the people in the village were left after they sacrificed their sacrifices.
"When I left my hometown and came to Baoyun Village 20 years ago, Baoyun Village held sacrifices every year. I don't know anything about before that."
"What were the sacrifices before, and what were the offerings?"
"In the spring and autumn sacrifices, three animals are offered as sacrifices."
"When did the Dragon God begin to be worshipped?"
The old man was silent for a while, then looked at Zhou Yunshu and asked another question, "If I answer truthfully, could the master let my whole family live?"
When the new and old were brought here, Chunque had his house surrounded and did not hide it from him.
He knew that even if Zhou Yunshu let him go this time, the villagers who had been brainwashed by him for decades would retaliate against him.
Not to mention, Xin Lao had long reached the age for sacrifice, but had never been sacrificed because of his status as the head of the village.
Zhou Yunshu had already made up her mind. She looked at the old man and said, "If you don't want to say it, I can let someone else say it."
When the old and new people heard Zhou Yunshu's words, their knees became even weaker.
This new owner is a tough guy.
The old man smiled bitterly, "No one in Zhuangzi has read much. How could they know more than me? Not to mention, I was the one who came up with the human sacrifice method."
"Look, look!" Yin Qing pointed at Xin Lao and shouted at Zhou Yunshu, "He did all this. He's even more vicious than the people of the Black Wolf Clan. You must kill him!"
Yin Qing's excitement did not make the old and new angry. He quietly looked at Zhou Yunshu who was looking at him from the main seat and said, "But I don't regret it."
The people around looked at the old and the new with anger. People who could come up with the idea of using human sacrifices instead of the three animal sacrifices deserved to be cut into pieces and thrown into the eighteen levels of hell!
But Zhou Yunshu didn't say anything, and Wu Gui and others just sat beside her with their eyes wide open.
"Then you are quite courageous."
Everyone looked at Zhou Yunshu with puzzlement when she said this, while the old and new people all laughed when Zhou Yunshu said this.
"Master, you are the only one with good vision among all the masters I have met."
Xin Lao's hunched body gradually straightened up at this moment. He looked at Zhou Yunshu and said, "If I wasn't courageous enough, there wouldn't be Baoyun Manor today."
"All the residents of Baoyun Manor should thank me! If it weren't for my planning, Baoyun Manor would have ceased to exist twenty years ago."
Zhou Yunshu looked at the proud faces of the old and new, and said, "So, you created the Dragon God and sacrificed human beings for the sake of the entire Baoyun Manor?"
The old man knelt on the ground and looked at Zhou Yunshu, saying righteously: "Of course!"
"Twenty years ago, the Haizhou flood destroyed my family. If it weren't for that flood, I might have become a court official by now, instead of a farm manager with my life in the hands of others!"
"So many people died in that flood. Even if I sold myself and moved into Baoyun Manor, it still couldn't give me a place to stay."
Xin Lao sat back on his lap. His eyes were no longer on Zhou Yunshu. Instead, he found a random fulcrum and lost himself in memories.
At that time, Baoyun Manor was a wealthy manor in Yuncheng. Because many people died in the mudslide, the old and new people had the opportunity to sell themselves and enter Baoyun Manor.
But although Baoyunzhuang has a good name, its luck is not really good.
The village head at that time was greedy for bargains, and many people had died in the mudslides before, so many young and strong people were bought by the new and old people.
There are people working, but no food to feed them.
When people are hungry for a long time, they can do anything.
