Wanbao Lady

"This……"

The young people chatted.

Is this really the case?

They looked at each other.

Village chief Luo Quan sighed.

"So that's how it is. I think you misunderstood. Our ancestors had no other choice at that time."

"A last resort?"

That being became even angrier.

"What a last resort! Repaying kindness with enmity is your last resort!"

Luo Quan cupped his hands again and said, "As the village chief, I know a thing or two about what happened back then."

As he spoke, his face was filled with reminiscence, and he said, "Back then, wars were frequent. Our ancestors had no choice but to flee their homes."

In his telling, the story was similar to that told by the Collective of Resentment, but there were some differences in the details.

At that time, when the people from Luo and Li villages first came here, they had nothing except the land and the assets they brought with them for escape.

Abandoned.

So, the man and the mule worked together.

We dug ditches together, carried things together, and farmed together.

While digging the ditch, not only the mules' feet got soaked.

People's feet were also soaked and rotten.

The mules were exhausted and our ancestors were very sad at that time.

However, at that time they faced a huge problem.

That is, there is not enough food.

Even if they lived frugally and even if they went to the nearby mountains to hunt and gather, there was not enough food for several hundred people.

The crops had not yet been planted at that time.

As for going out to buy food?

Where can we buy food during wartime?

Even if there is food, it is astronomically expensive!

So people discussed it and someone suggested that since the mules were dead anyway, they might as well eat their meat and save more lives.

Some people objected, saying that these mules had shared the good and bad times with them and were their closest companions.

Just like soldiers and war horses, how can you eat them?

However, driven by hunger, the voices of opposition were drowned out.

People ate the flesh and blood of the dead mules with tears in their eyes.

Even so, many people starved to death at that time.

People were grateful to these mule companions, so they collected their bones and buried them together in one place.

Even the river that was reclaimed by humans and mules was called Mule River.

Later, when everything returned to normal, people still remembered the contributions of these mules.

They used their spare money to buy incense, candles and paper money, and came here together to pay tribute to the contributions of their former partners.

But as time went by and the older generation passed away, people gradually forgot about this matter.

Only the village annals recorded it.

It was not until more than a hundred years later, when a drought broke out, that a villager dug a well here and allowed the mules to see the light of day again.

But at that time, they were already dominated by resentment, and started killing as soon as they came out.

As a last resort, the villagers asked the Taoist priests to suppress them.

The villagers suddenly realized.

It turns out that there is such a secret behind the monster murder case two hundred years ago.

Some people even felt sympathy for the monster in the well.

"The ancestors had no choice but to do this. I know you must be filled with resentment, but the ancestors are gone, and we, the younger generations, can only do our best to make it up to you."

As he spoke, he thought of an idea and said, "How about this, I will take the lead and build a shrine for you in the village, and burn incense and pray for blessings every day, so that you can eliminate your resentment and avoid the pain of resentment."

The older generation said that although resentful ghosts may appear powerful on the surface, they are actually very miserable.

Resentment eats at my heart and I cannot find peace every day.

Unless their resentment can be eliminated, they will continue to be stubborn and no one can pull them back.

But how difficult is it to eliminate resentment?

Either they eliminated the objects of their hatred with their own hands, or they were saved by higher beings.

Both methods have immediate effects.

The last method is to build a shrine to the dead, worship them every day, and use sincerity to influence their resentment.

But this method is also the slowest method.

It is not even certain whether it will be effective.

As for how the older generation knew these things?

Maybe it was the Taoist priest who sealed the monster who told them.

Then it was passed down from generation to generation.

As for why the ancestors at that time did not build a shrine for this monster?

Luo Quan guessed that it might be related to the fact that this monster started killing people indiscriminately as soon as it appeared.

Maybe it also killed people it shouldn't have killed.

Therefore, the temple for the dead no longer exists, but there is a sealed one.

But now, since it has been suppressed by the Queen's Demon Locking Tower, the Demon Locking Tower is still placed here.

This is intriguing.

I can only say, who among those who can be leaders is not a shrewd person?

Guessing the boss's intention is a compulsory lesson.

The Queen Mother has great magical powers. How easy would it be for her to convert this monster?

If all else fails, just lock the Demon Tower and be done with it.

But now, this Demon Locking Tower is placed here on purpose.

He guessed that in this way, they would have a chance to communicate with the monster.

After knowing the cause and effect, it is their choice as to what to do.

Your Majesty is testing us!

Luo Quan thought about it.

Therefore, he came up with a plan to build a shrine for the dead.

If Chongfan knew what he was thinking, he would definitely say, yes and no.

First of all, with Chongfan’s current strength, it is impossible to convert demons and ghosts.

I had no choice but to put it in the Demon Locking Tower.

As for why the Demon Locking Tower is placed here?

Chongfan said that you should solve your own grievances and hatreds by yourselves.

I just gave you an opportunity to have an equal dialogue.

If we can really eliminate its resentment, the whole family will naturally be happy.

If not, she can anyway summon the Demon Locking Tower back at any time through the system atlas, and it doesn't matter where it is placed.

As for the possible eye of the formation here, she speculated that it was either in the soil where the mules were buried, or on the body of this collection of resentment.

In short, there is no way to escape.

After hearing what Luo Quan said, the mules all fell silent.

These humans did not abandon the corpses at random, but deliberately collected and buried them here?

Have you ever worshipped and remembered us after we died?

They were stunned.

It seems that things are a little different from what they thought.

But some things, once they happen, it is impossible to completely forgive them.

"We also know that you will not forgive us easily, and we do not ask for your forgiveness. We only hope that our daily prayers and worship can slightly alleviate your resentment and save you from suffering."

Another village chief who was much taller than the others and had a lean build also stood up and spoke.

They do what they say.

After the people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait learned about this, they worked together to build a shrine for the dead in just one month.

Although it is not big, it has all the necessary organs.

He also brought the Demon-Locking Tower out of the well, brought it in respectfully, and placed it on the top of the table.

People appreciate the contribution these mules make.

Without them, there would be no Mule River and no villagers today.

One day, a little girl ran excitedly to the Temple of the Dead, knelt on her short legs, and kowtowed several times upwards.
