Ignorance, superstition, fanaticism, greed, unscrupulous...

Eventually, he brought disaster upon himself.

Having a general understanding of the suicidal experience of this county, Jiang Ji stretched out his hand and wiped it in front of the mirror, switching to another picture.

This time it is no longer text, but documentary-like images.

Judging from the architectural style alone, it seems that dozens or even hundreds of years have passed since those lines of absurd text were written.

The darkness was blown away by the wind, revealing a narrow, dark room.

It was dirty, messy, and the environment was bad. There was not a single light. It was more like a doghouse than a house. But there were four or five women living in such a house. They were full of stench that had not been cleaned for a long time, but you could see that their skin was very fair, and they did not look like the natives of Shangshan County.

These are the girls abducted by Widow Wang from other places.

They would never have imagined that Widow Wang, who was as smiling and amiable as Maitreya Buddha, was secretly engaged in human trafficking.

These girls had been severely beaten and were dying.

The girls cannot stay here for long as they will soon be taken away by the buyers. Widow Wang's place is just a transit station and she is too lazy to clean up.

It's a bit dirty, but the girls she abducted are prettier than those from other families, and most of them come to her to find someone.

Men who traffic people mostly do so by kidnapping them, while women who traffic people mostly take advantage of the sympathy of girls.

Every time Widow Wang went out, she would wear dirty clothes and knock on doors under the pretext of picking up rags or begging, taking advantage of other people's kindness. In fact, she was inquiring about the family situation. If she happened to encounter only girls or children at home, that was when her true colors were revealed.

The short, fat woman brought several groups of people in to pick and choose, bargaining back and forth. On the other side, a man with red cheeks walked into the next room with an empty bottle of wine and a grim smile.

After a while, he came out with a satisfied expression.

When Widow Wang found out, she pinched his ear, put her hands on her hips and cursed: "You're asking for death, do you think you can touch this stuff? I could have sold it for a good price, but after you touched it, how can I ask for the same price?"

Jiang Ji's gaze slowly passed over the three heads, and the cold smile in his eyes made them terrified and dared not speak.

She could probably guess how the story would develop next.

Shangshan County had attracted evil spirits, and no one in several nearby counties was willing to marry their daughters here, for fear of bringing disaster to their own county.

All the good luck they had before was just wasting their luck for the next few years. How could people take advantage of the weirdness?

In the following years, Shangshan County was hit by constant natural and man-made disasters.

Most of those who died suddenly were young men, the ** of every household.

The bodies of those who have not yet married and had children could not be buried in the ancestral tombs and could only be buried in mass graves. The parents of these people were afraid that they would be bullied by wandering ghosts if buried outside, so they gritted their teeth and asked for wives for their children.

Shangshan County is famous for its preference for boys over girls. In order to find a wife, the men had to spend money to buy girls kidnapped from outside.

The girls’ families came looking for them, and the entire county tried to cover up for them.

Among this group of women, there was one girl who was particularly beautiful.

Her name is A'man, maybe this is not her real name.

Ah Man is well-spoken, worldly-wise, and has a good personality. He will encourage girls in distress and will not give up any chance to escape.

And because she was good-looking, she was the first one to be sold.

The one who bought her was the Fang family. The Fang family was one of the families that made the most profit in the ghost temple back then, and now they have become a big family in Shangshan County.

He paid a heavy price for this; his direct descendants always died violent deaths and could not escape the curse of the ghost temple.

The man A'man is going to marry is Fang Huiming, the eldest son of the Fang family.

The Fang family has no worries about not being able to find a wife. The reason why Widow Wang bought a wife from here is because Fang Huiming also died half a month ago.

The Fang family was heartbroken, but couldn't bear to see their beloved son become a wandering ghost, so they spent a large sum of money to buy the most outstanding Ah Man.

They still retained the last bit of humanity and did not kill Ah Man and bury her together with her. Instead, they locked her in the room where Fang Huiming lived before his death and had people deliver meals to her on time, pretending that Fang Huiming was still alive and well.

The day and night in the mirror changed alternately, and Jiang Ji saw that every night different men sneaked into the yard.

At first there were sounds of crying and struggling, but later only the man's dirty talk was heard.

Not long after, A Man became pregnant.

This matter could no longer be concealed, but the men were completely invisible in this matter, and only Ah Man was punished for infidelity.

Tree burial.

First, they would cut a hole in their hands and feet, then hang them on a tree and bleed them like chickens and ducks.

Let her blood drip into the soil bit by bit, and finally cut the paper-pale body into eight pieces and bury it under the trees with the heaviest traffic. Let Ah Man be trampled by the villagers passing by day and night... Even if she becomes a ghost, she will be imprisoned under the tree forever.

The shots in the magic mirror switched very quickly, and in just a few minutes, a life withered away.

After reading it, Jiang Ji looked at the three men in front of him who dared not say a word, with no extra expression on his face.

Lu Yi was so angry that he was shaking all over. These three men were clearly accomplices of Widow Wang, and yet they dared to lie!
