The big man laughed loudly, very satisfied with everyone's reaction.

"Since everyone wants to know, I won't keep you in suspense. Today I'm going to show you a talent that has never been performed before. I guarantee it will open your eyes!"

"So amazing? Tell me what talent you have!"

"Yeah, what kind of talent is that? We've been waiting for so long that the flowers are almost gone!"

Everyone was talking at once, and they were all itching to try out the big man.

"What I'm going to perform next is - pulling out tendons and peeling skin!"

The big man spoke out the talent he was going to perform word by word.

"Pulling and skinning?"

Everyone said in unison, looking at the big man in shock; this was the first time they had heard of such a talent.

"Yes, the talent I am going to perform for everyone next is to pull out the tendons and peel off the skin. Everyone, please open your eyes and watch. Today, I will use my sister as an experiment!"

The big man shouted, "Girl, come out!"

“Here it comes!”

A little girl who looked to be in her teens came out from behind the red silk wearing a corset.

"Girl, come on, get inside the box. Today we're going to open everyone's eyes!"

The little girl nodded and obediently walked towards the wooden box in front of her.

The other two big men opened the wooden box and locked the slender little girl inside, leaving only her head sticking out.

"Look carefully, the most thrilling moment is coming!"

As the big man spoke, he picked up a big knife from the side and walked towards the little girl who had crawled into the wooden box with the sound of thumps on the ground. As his steps fell, everyone's heart rose.

"Miss, he, he, he won't give that little girl to..."

Qingzhu clenched his hands nervously and made a gesture as if he was wiping his neck.

"Don't worry, the little girl will appear in front of us unharmed in the end."

Jiang Li curled her lips and looked calm.

Isn't this a great transformation? Jiang Li, who had watched the video explanation, knew very well what the great transformation was all about, and was not worried at all that the little girl would be hurt.

No wonder the stage was built in front of Nancheng Bridge this year, in order to cover the stage with a blind spot so that people would not discover the doorway behind the round stage.

Combining this with the magic explanation video she had watched before, Jiang Li guessed the structure of the box at once, and was certain that there must be a section at the back of the box that was just enough to accommodate the little girl's body.

"I'm going to pick my sister's hamstrings, everyone keep your eyes open!"

After the big man finished speaking, he spat into his palms twice and then raised his sword.

“Stop, stop it!”

Someone in the crowd shouted with a trembling voice, but the big knife had already been raised, so there was no reason to retract it. The big man chopped directly at the wooden box, and the position of the wooden box was exactly at the knee of the little girl! Hiss——

Everyone gasped, and the brave ones raised their hands to cover their eyes.

Swish! The knife rose and fell, and the sound of the wooden box being chopped was heard, and then bright red blood flowed out of the box.

Everyone closed their eyes in despair, sighing in their hearts.

"Blood, it's blood!"

"Ouch! Such a nice little girl has her hamstrings severed. What a sin she has committed!"

"Yeah, it's better not to have this kind of talent!"

The big man held up the big knife that was still bleeding and looked at everyone with a smile.

"How about it? Did my talent show scare everyone?"

At this time, an old lady in the crowd looked at the big man on the stage with trembling fingers: "You, you, you, what kind of performance is this? You are clearly murdering someone!"

"Yeah, what grudge does the little girl have against you that you want to cut her tendons?"

"Send him to the government. You must send him to the government!"

In an instant, the people became excited and all clamored to send the man to the government.

"Government? Have you forgotten one thing? We haven't had a prefect in Suzhou for a year. What kind of official are you planning to apply for?"

The big man chuckled, and after his reminder, everyone realized the situation belatedly. They looked at each other, and couldn't utter a word for a long time.

"You, you, you, even if there is no prefect in Jiangnan City now, there is still the general! If the general knew that you took human life lightly, he would definitely bring you to justice!"

An auntie couldn't stand the big man's arrogance and directly brought Zhou Qingyuan out.

"That's right! We will tell General Zhou about your evil deeds now!"

Unexpectedly, the big man showed no fear on his face when he heard Zhou Qingyuan's name. Instead, a hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"General Zhou? Hahaha, General Zhou can't even take care of his own brother, so how can he care about these trivial matters?"

Thinking of what Zhou Qingyun had done over the years, the people lowered their heads with heavy expressions.

As a dissolute person, Zhou Qingyun's reputation has long been ruined in Jiangnan. He often relies on his status as a general's brother to act tyrannically and oppress the people. Everyone present has been oppressed by Zhou Qingyun.

They originally thought that now that the general had returned, the second young master of the Zhou family would be more restrained and correct himself, but the reality did not turn out as they wished.

Yes, General Zhou is so busy with military affairs that he doesn’t even have time to discipline his own brothers, so how could he bother to take care of their affairs?

The big man saw everyone's reactions, and when he saw that everyone was speechless, he continued to speak loudly.

"The person who manages all the affairs of Jiangnan is the prefect, but there has been no one competent to be the prefect of Jiangnan. Usually, we have to grit our teeth and swallow our sufferings. Who else can make decisions for us ordinary people?"

The big man's words made the people sympathize with him.

"Yes, the prefectural position has been vacant for a long time, and there is no one to make decisions for us ordinary people!"

"But what can we do? All the previous prefects died in an accident. The prefecture of Jiangnan City seems to be possessed by a demon. Anyone who sits on it has a bad ending. No one dares to sit on it!"

"That's right, I think there's no way to resolve this deadlock!"

When this matter was mentioned, the people felt depressed and shook their heads helplessly.

"Who said there is no way? As long as we present the situation of Jiangnan City to His Majesty truthfully, I believe that His Majesty is wise and will definitely make the decision for us ordinary people, find out the truth, and give us ordinary people a parent official!"

The big man's strong voice was clearly heard by everyone present, and the people who had originally lowered their heads and looked dejected suddenly raised their heads.

"That's right! His Majesty will definitely make the decision for us!"

"But His Majesty is far away in the Imperial Capital. How can we present the current situation of Jiangnan City to His Majesty?"

At this moment, the big man on the platform laughed heartily and hammered his chest hard.

"If you all believe me, I can run this trip for you. Even if it costs me my life, I will deliver the petition you wrote to His Majesty!"

"Just you?"
