Aunt Chen is back from the world of cultivation

After learning of her identity and witnessing her mysterious appearance, Li Gengyuan became even more afraid of her.

But he still forced himself to drink:

"So you are the traitorous demon Du'e! Release your arrows and shoot her to death!"

Hundreds of soldiers shot arrows at the same time.

However, the woman in white just raised her hand and waved, and a gust of wind blew all the arrows to the ground.

"Release again!" Li Gengyuan ordered again.

Hundreds of arrows attacked again, she raised her hand and waved, and all the arrows were blown away again.

Within two meters, the ground was littered with scattered arrows.

Once is a coincidence, twice it must be the other party's trick.

Not only the archers, but even the cavalrymen behind them couldn't help but feel fear.

He could appear out of thin air so miraculously and create a strong wind with his bare hands. Is he really a human?

By the way, the imperial court said she was a demon!

Just as I was thinking this, the evil demon in white, who looked spotless and exuded an ethereal aura, spoke again.

"Li Gengyuan, you are looking for death."

The voice was still cold and indifferent, without even a hint of anger.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, she raised her hand and grabbed in their direction.

Li Gengyuan, who was originally guarded in the center of the garrison soldiers and would not be hurt in any case, flew up into the air as if he was sucked by something, and then fell into the mud in front of the evil demon.

"Ah!"

Li Gengyuan was so frightened that he screamed loudly.

"Someone! Come and save me!"

He was almost frightened crazy by this sudden change, and he got up and ran towards the soldiers.

However, he had only taken a few steps when a vine shot out from behind him and tied him up tightly from the hands to the waist in the blink of an eye, as if it had its own consciousness.

The evil demon Du'e chuckled:

"Oh, whoever I want to kill, no one can escape."

After saying that, she raised her hand and lifted the once high-ranking Minister of War into the air like a tied pig or dog. She pronounced:

"Li Gengyuan, the Minister of War in the Southern Capital, you withheld military pay, accepted bribes, and forced the soldiers in the camp to share the cost of buying the cloth woven by your oppressed tenants, causing many soldiers and civilians to work hard all day long but go hungry!"

"Every penny and every property of your Li family was sucked out of the blood of countless ordinary people, soldiers and merchants!"

"You are guilty of heinous crimes, you deserve to be cut into pieces!"

Among the soldiers, three thousand commanders and several centurions looked at Li Gengyuan nervously:

"grown ups!"

"Master Li!"

They subconsciously wanted to rush forward to save people and show their loyalty, but seeing the magical methods of the evil demon in white, they did not dare to move forward.

"Come here, my five hundred men, go and rescue Lord Li immediately!"

They only dared to give orders to the soldiers under their command.

However, none of the soldiers who had been obedient in the past stepped forward at this time.

Because everyone knows that the abbot of Cihang Temple, who is called the evil demon, is telling the truth.

These recruited soldiers joined the army with the purpose of sacrificing themselves to ensure that their entire family had enough food and clothing.

But in the end, the military pay they received was only 40% of what was originally promised.

Even so, we were still tasked with purchasing the homespun cloth distributed by our superiors.

The quality of those cloths was much worse than those sold in shops outside, but the price was 10% to 20% higher, so you had to buy them.

This made their already difficult lives even worse.

According to those who rented land from the Li family, the Li family not only charged 70% of the rent, but also added new rental conditions:

In their spare time, every family had to hand in two pieces of cloth every month, and the purchase price was only 70% of the normal purchase price, which was almost equivalent to working for free.

During the slack season, women and children would weave cloth at home to supplement the family income, which was a rare way for the lower-class people in the Jiangnan region to increase their income.

The Li family's action took away all of their meager income.

Without this money, I don’t know how many families will suffer from hunger and cold, or even starve to death or freeze to death this winter.

But what if we don’t rent the Li family’s land?

All the land around the village is in the hands of the Li family. There is no way to survive if we don’t rent it out!

The evil demon in front of him (no, is this really an evil demon?) is right. Every bit of the Li family’s property is stained with the blood of ordinary people!

They all hope that Minister Li, who has been exploiting them, will be killed!

Li Gengyuan had originally hoped that the soldiers from the garrison camp would come to rescue him, but when he saw this situation, he knew there was no hope.

The fear of death suddenly struck my heart.

"Master, there is a misunderstanding! I never intended to betray you. I originally planned to capture the Taoist priests and then let them go quietly!"

he shouted quickly and eagerly.

Chen Qingzhu sneered:

"I have seen everything you have done, so how can you just quibble with a few words now?"

"What's more, the devout believers of my Cihang Temple have all changed their ways and helped the people since they converted. Only you have become even more aggressive in exploiting the people!"

"Today, I will cut you into pieces as a warning to others!"

After she finished speaking, she put two fingers together and slashed towards Li Gengyuan who was hanging in the air. Li Gengyuan immediately let out a heart-wrenching scream.

His heavy official robe seemed to have been cut by an extremely sharp blade, revealing a bleeding wound.

Before he could catch his breath, she stroked a second time.

Li Gengyuan, a scholar and intellectual, had never suffered such great hardship.

After just two hits, he was already so tortured by fear and severe pain that he couldn't care about anything else.

He immediately burst into tears and begged for mercy:

“Ahhh! Master, spare my life!”

"God, please spare me! Imperial Master, please spare me! I know I was wrong! I will never dare to do it again!"

"Please give me another chance, Master!"

However, Chen Qingzhu did not show any mercy at all. Instead, he clicked his tongue impatiently:

"Noisy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a fist-sized stone flew up and was stuffed into Li Gengyuan's mouth.

Suddenly, all his excuses and pleas for mercy were stuck in his throat.

Chen Qingzhu raised her hand and continued the execution. As her fingers moved slowly and gracefully, wounds appeared on Li Gengyuan's body one after another.

Soon, he became a bloody man, with blood flowing down his body like water.

No matter how much he wanted to beg for mercy or curse because his life was hopeless, he could no longer utter the words.

No one else dared to speak either.

On the empty river bank, there were only the sound of gentle waves and Li Gengyuan's shrill screams even though his mouth was blocked.

After half a quarter of an hour, Li Gengyuan's cries gradually became weaker, and finally disappeared completely.

"He died so soon."

Chen Qingzhu said.

Then he withdrew his power to control the object and let his body fall into the mud by the river with a thud.

The entire execution process lasted for a quarter of an hour and the entire place was in complete silence.

It was not until Li Gengyuan died and was thrown down that everyone came back to their senses from their fear.

"Ah-"

A thousand households fled back in fear.

However, a vine shot out immediately afterwards and wrapped around him like a snake, and then he was pulled out of the crowd and thrown next to Li Gengyuan's body.

"Why are you running? Are you and Li Gengyuan birds of a feather?"
