Chapter 128

Everyone is staring at the wooden tower. It is more than 20 meters high. It is only seen on the surface of the water. If you count the one under the water, it will be higher.

The wood on the tower is as thick as an adult's thigh. It's not spectacular. You can see the black things on the water. Everyone's faces are corrected after the mask, and the sad feeling flashed in their eyes.

"It's cruel..." If smoke light voice.

"Go and see." Zhuo Qingyan's feeling is not good to where to go, and the thought of this tower is under the flower girls, the heart is more blocked.

As they passed by, they suddenly saw someone rushing down from the dam. She waved her hand and rushed out of the four team members. After a while, she caught the man. When they passed by, they had already been taken back and knelt on the ground.

"My Lord, spare your life I just want to burn some paper money for my dead son There is no act of destroying the pagoda... " The head was on the ground, crying out loud.

"Let go." Zhuo Qingyan road.

The team member on the hand strength slightly, but still did not let go of that person, can only let him raise his head.

Zhuo Qingyan squatted in front of him: "fellow townsman, we are not Liu Baoshun's people. What do you mean just now? Can you be more detailed? "

As soon as the man heard this, he raised his head. He was like a man about fifty years old. He had a long beard on his chin and looked at his appearance. He was a learned man. After his eyes twinkled, he asked tentatively: "who are you, Liu Taishou That... "

"We are the people of his highness King Ling. We came to the county town this time to arrest Liu Baoshun. We have captured him yesterday and are now in the prison of the governor Yamen." Zhuo Qingyan knew he didn't believe it.

The people here have been bullied and afraid. If you can ask the truth, only tell them that the bully they fear no longer exists. Otherwise, don't want to hear a word of truth.

"Seriously?" The old man is still hesitating.

Zhuo Qingyan took out a waist token from his waist, which was the sign of King Ling's mansion. The old man really recognized his words and looked at it carefully for a long time. Then he suddenly knocked his head on the ground again and cried out: "God has eyes. Finally, I'm looking forward to this day Liu Baoshun You son of a bitch God finally sent someone to clean you up You devil... "

His reaction made all the people present feel sad. They understood why this man was like this. He lived in a dark place and didn't know life and death. Finally, one day, he saw the light, saw the hope, and how could he still have reason.

The old man beat his hands to the ground, and the old man's heart was broken.

"Huaner Huaner You see it in the sky Oh, my God You have eyes... " The old man roared up to the sky again, tears streaming down his face and his eyes were red.

"Fellow townsman, are you here to worship?" Zhuo Qingyan asked.

After all, the old man was a learned man. After calming down his mood, he wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve and said, "yes, today is the birthday sacrifice of my little girl huaner. I'm just such a daughter But But But he was sacrificed to the demon tower, saying that what can be used to control the flood How could it be How could a flood come to town with corpses Only when we respect the river god can we use it... "

"How long has this corpse tower been running?" Zhuo Qingyan asked again.

"How long? Yes, it has been two years... " The old man said again.

Zhuo Qingyan listened, got up and went to the dam, looked down and frowned slightly.

The old man also stretched his neck and looked at her: "what do officials want to know?"

"Oh, old man, I want to know how many bodies have been hung on this tower. If you look at it from above, there are at least 16 bodies in a circle." Zhuo Qing Yan language temperature and road.

The old man shook his head and wiped the tears on his face again: "the officials don't know, so they offer sacrifices once, that is, they have to hang up 16, but they have been hanged more than once, once a month. How much should this be..."

"Hiss..." Everyone took a breath and glared at the corpse tower.

Zhuo Qing Yan's eyes were also cold: "once a month?"

The old man nodded: "yes, after the tower was built, I heard that Liu Baoshun pulled 16 female prisoners out of the prison and hung them on it. Later, the flood still happened and washed the fertile farmland five miles away. I heard that some experts gave me some advice. These 16 female prisoners are not of the right age. They should be hanged again when they are born..."

"What? Hang up again If smoke did not hold back a cry.

The old man nodded his head again, and his tears rose again: "I am a native of the local people. There are 28 towns and villages, large and small, in Linjun city. In order to find these 16 girls who are in line with the eight characters, it can be said that it is inhumane to rob, rob and kill the whole family, everything Then on the 15th day of that month, I hung up the 16 girls again... "

"Hoo..." Zhuo Qing Yan called out a long breath, in order to calm down the anger in the heart.

"Officials You don't know. Wow The cry has been ringing all night It was not finished until dawn, but when everyone came to see it, they were drowned In the water, you can only see it on your head... " The old man began to cry again.Some of the players started to wipe their tears, and everyone was in a bad mood.

"Old man, what batch of rings are you in?" Zhuo Qingyan asked.

"On the 15th day of the last batch, half a month ago, there were no girls in the whole Linjun city. I had no choice but to change the eight characters. My huan'er was selected and I was blamed. Why didn't you marry her out before the new year..." The old man beat his chest and cried regretfully.

"Is that what you can see on the top now? But if that's the case, the water level is going up at the bottom Zhuo Qingyan is puzzled.

The old man shook his head: "no, the location of the body is right here. The water level has not risen, but the body originally tied to it has disappeared."

"Gone? How could it be? " Zhuo Qing Yan stares, even if she is calm again, encounter this kind of thing, also can't calm down.

"The Taoist said that he had been taken away and enjoyed by the river god. In order to control the flood, he had to hang it up again." The old man said again.

"Taoist?" She was in a daze.

"It's all the ghost Taoist. What kind of master is the evil way, the evil way!" The old man yelled again.

"What kind of Taoist? Will you know that? " She looked at him.

"It's a Taoist with a bird mask. It's the idea he gave Liu Baoshun to hang the corpse tower. That's him!" The old man glared at his red eyes.
