[What should I do next? The inner monster has escaped. 】The nightmare in the body reminded Muning.
The girl was stunned for a moment, recalling the vague memories that were not hers, her eyes flashed with cold light.
"Go back to Xizhai Village."
The cold sword light touched the rough neck, as if it would kill him if he got even half a minute closer.
The old man collapsed on the ground and almost peeed out of fear. He trembled and kept moaning, "Taoist Master... Taoist Master spared my life. If you have anything to say, please tell me..."
Li Nianxue on the side also advised, "An Ning, what are you doing? Put down your sword quickly!"
Anyone who sees this scene will feel that Muning is bullying the weak and the old man with strength. Even Jiang Sui couldn't help but yell out, "Aning! Put down the sword!"
Jiang Sui suddenly thought that he was still recuperating at his old uncle's house, when his junior sister ran into the house, dragging the old man and threatening him with a sword like a bandit.
The eyes of the girl holding the sword were as cold as winter, and the air around her seemed to have solidified. There was an unruly and sullen aura about her, like a touch of coldness on a winter night.
"I'll ask again, what happened in Xizhai Village before? What else is being hidden from us?" The girl's thin lips parted slightly, and she spoke impatiently.
This tone seemed to be a question, but it was a naked questioning, as if Muning already knew the truth, but still wanted the old man to confess.
Jiang Sui was stunned for a moment and looked at the old man, "Didn't I tell you before? A pregnant woman died in childbirth and cursed..."
Once he said this, he also realized something was wrong. This story was true and false, false and true, but it always felt like it didn't make sense.
The old man trembled and asked, "Aren't you...aren't you righteous disciples from the Immortal Sect? How dare you...kill people? Aren't you afraid of being blamed by your elders!"
Muning sneered. Sure enough, he was sure that he was just scaring him from actually killing him, so he was so confident.
This is like seeing the coffin without shedding tears.
"Hmph, the first principle upheld by the disciples of the Immortal Sect is to subjugate and eliminate demons, but there are some people who are more terrifying and disgusting than demons, so naturally they should be eliminated quickly!" The girl said this emotionless statement calmly.
Lu Mingzhu's eyes flashed slightly as he looked at the "interesting" girl in front of him with interest.
Jiang Sui and the others remained silent. The sect's rules did not allow harming defenseless mortals, but... special circumstances required special treatment.
The old man looked at the three people behind him who had "acquiesced", and then looked at Muning and Lu Mingzhu who were sharpening their knives in front of them. He was so frightened that he almost fainted, and could only tremble and said, "I said, I don't even know it." He said...that monster...is my wife, and she must be here to seek revenge on me."
The story goes back several decades...
"Hey, are you having a baby, a boy or a girl?"
"boy!"
"Oh, congratulations!"
Xizhai Village is located in a remote area, feudal, backward, and ignorant.
And now that the government is in turmoil and wars continue, this remote village is naturally suffering from poverty.
Living in poverty is not the most terrifying thing, what is more terrifying is ideological poverty.
Here, it is a good thing if there is a boy in the family, but if it is a girl...
"You might as well give birth to a beast! You can kill it and eat it!"
This old man's name was Guisheng. He married a daughter-in-law and gave birth to a total of seven children, all of them girls. The eighth one is still a girl.
Hearing the wailing coming from the room, he waved his hands in disgust, "Find someone to figure it out, find a good time to throw the baby away, don't come to my house next time!"
Before the woman could even take a look at her baby, she heard the conversation between the midwife and her husband outside the house. "Old student, what is your family's rank?"
"Don't mention it, she doesn't have good food in her belly and can't give birth to a boy!"
"Just accept your fate, your wife's body can no longer give birth, and something will happen to her sooner or later!"
"Leave her alone..."
The woman endured the severe pain and went to the ground. She wanted to find her child. It didn't matter if it was a girl. This was her flesh and blood, a treasure that had fallen from her body. She wanted to raise her child even if she didn't eat or drink.
But when I came to the foot of the tower, listening to the cries of babies one after another, when I found the familiar red cloth wrapped in it, I found that the child inside had already lost his breath.
Just like the first seven.
The pain in the body is far less than the pain in the heart.
She is pregnant again.
This time it was a boy. When the midwife saw that it was a baby, she immediately told Guisheng. There were cheers and wailing sounds outside the house, but the woman had no more strength and she was going to die.
But no one listened to her cry for help, only the last curse with hatred passed into his ears.
She cursed the village to never give birth to a girl again.
She was left in the Infant Tower with her daughters...
Muning calmly described the scene he felt inside the monster.
After hearing this, several disciples couldn't help but harden their fists. Li Nianxue even rushed forward and wanted to beat up the old man.
Jiang Sui frowned and speculated angrily, "There are many unjust souls under the Yingta Tower, and it is impossible not to be obsessed with the woman's hatred."
Li Nianxue was so angry that she pointed at his nose and cursed, "You deserve the retribution for being cursed! It's best to cut off your descendants!"
Muning waved his hand, "I think the inability to give birth to boys in your village is not because of the curse of the monster. It's because you are proud of giving birth to boys. You have sold all the female babies. The subsequent offspring will all be men. How can they still be alive?" A baby girl?"
She pressed forward step by step, her narrowed eyes filled with cold light, "Is the mute pregnant woman I saw before bought from your village?"
The old man fell to his knees with a guilty conscience, "Xia Xia, please spare my life, Xia Xia, please spare my life! We... we know we were wrong, please, please let us go..."
It seems to be the default.
Several people's hearts fell to the bottom, they couldn't believe that there was such a bizarre and complicated story.
"Then why did you treat us so well in the first place? You wanted us to kill the demon and kill your wife!" Li Nianxue wanted to rush up and slap her twice, but Jiang Sui stopped her.
The old man nodded like a fool, not daring to say another word.
But Muning didn't intend to let him go. He was as smart and astute as she was. "I think it's more than that. At the beginning, we were just fledgling disciples, but you welcomed us so warmly. On the one hand, you were lucky enough to let us There is another aspect to eliminating demons..."
She was about to finish her words, but the disciples on the field had already heard some of the meaning.
Ye Xiyao was the first to react, her charming and delicate brows furrowed, and she looked at the old man with disgust, "Tsk, don't you think that the women among us have evil intentions? What a bastard! This girl is also you. Can you imagine that?!"
After saying that, he drew his sword out of its scabbard and wanted to kill the old man.
Jiang then had no choice but to persuade the two junior sisters behind him who looked uneasy, for fear that they would do something outrageous.
