Chapter 1062 - Chapter 1062 Chapter 1066 Reincarnation in the Extreme Hell

Chapter 1062: Chapter 1066: Reincarnation in the Extreme Hell Chapter 1062: Chapter 1066: Reincarnation in the Extreme Hell “That’s the execution of criminals, their crimes were so heinous they were put to death, to protect the people from their persecution,” Elder Ge said.

“Master Ge, you remember my brother, Hong Yi,” Hong Mo said.

“I remember.”

“You also remember those Daoist Boys who lived here with us in the Daoist Temple, right? To me, they were all my younger brothers and sisters,” Hong Mo said.

“How could I forget? I’m sitting here thinking about the old times, wishing I could have taken you all to gather herbs back then…” Elder Ge began, then sighed again. What’s the point of talking about it now?

“Master Ge, you don’t need to blame yourself. As a stranger, you were already very kind to us. However, there’s something you probably never knew…” Hong Mo pointed outside to the murky river and hinted to Elder Ge, “For one or two months, all of us had full stomachs, because that river carried not just the offal thrown away by the slaughterhouses but also whole pigs.”

Upon hearing this, Elder Ge’s expression changed.

When mentioning the pigs in the river, those with experience understood; that usually meant an outbreak of swine fever, and some unscrupulous slaughterhouses, to avoid detection by the government officers and keep it from public knowledge, would dump the pigs in the river to deceive people.

“The children in your Daoist Temple, they all ate the pigs that died from swine fever??” Elder Ge asked.

“Yes, many people got sick. Their lives were already hard and painful, but they still wanted to live. So, the entire Daoist Temple was filled with their vomit and excrement. Their bodies were covered in poisonous sores, their stomachs full of snakes and worms!” Hong Mo spoke.

“Those heartless traders, they’re harming people too much!” Elder Ge cursed.

“Do you think they deserve to die?” asked Hong Mo.

“This…” Elder Ge was at a loss for words for a moment.

“Let me tell you something else,” Hong Mo continued, “actually, them throwing the feverish pigs into the river wasn’t so bad, at least no one would starve to death. Some people even survived by eating the meat from those pigs, like my brother Hong Yi.

“But in fact, due to the negligence of the officials, the feverish pigs killed many people. The officials didn’t want the matter exposed, so they did everything they could to cover it up. They ordered the pig farms and slaughterhouses to dispose of the people who died from eating the feverish pig meat. So, those bodies were all transported to the slaughterhouse upriver…”

Old man Ge’s complexion turned completely upon hearing this.

He even struggled to stand steady, needing to use his hand to support himself against the brick wall!

His mouth trembled, and after a while, he dared to ask, “How were those people who died from swine fever handled??”

“That year, none of us went hungry, but those of us who survived were in even more pain, wishing we had simply died from the swine fever!” As Hong Mo spoke these words, his demeanor changed, becoming cold and terrifying.

The last of the evening light completely vanished, and in the dimming light, Hong Mo exuded a chilling presence!

“The slaughterhouse, they took those people who died from the swine fever and… ugh!!!!” Even with his vast experience, Old man Ge couldn’t help but retch upon learning the truth!

Hong Mo watched him calmly, his own face devoid of rage.

Old man Ge retched for a long time.

He had never imagined the matter would have such a horrifying aspect!!

Too cruel, too disgusting, too outrageous!!!

“In other words, that year, the flowing river carried not only pieces of pork, but also flesh, viscera, hair… not all belonging to pigs!”

“And the children of the Daoist Temple, they survived by catching these things for food, what they ate was… what they ate was…”

“We followed the Taoist of the Yufu Ghost God Sect. On the first day we started learning with him, we had to swear to the heavens that if we committed heinous sins while alive, we must endure Reincarnation in the Extreme Hell after death… and among the Netherworld’s judgments of the sins of the Yang Realm, ‘cannibalism’ is a crime of extreme severity, unforgivable!!” Hong Mo continued, his gaze had turned terrifyingly cold.

Elder Ge found himself speechless.

As someone who had lived to the age of eighty, he had never experienced such a chilling shock!!

He felt as if his entire understanding of the world was being overturned by this revelation!!

This river…

This very river, he had walked back and forth along its banks for at least seventy years!

It had always been turbid and foul-smelling, but Elder Ge had never imagined it could hide such filthy, terrifying secrets!

And the foulest, most terrifying, the filthiest were not the river itself, but the people at the slaughterhouse and those who had committed such atrocious acts, outraging both gods and men!!

“Some of us who survived are envious of those who died before us, after all, dying from swine fever takes only a few days, but we who lived by eating human flesh, even before death, were damned to never find peace ever again!!” As Hong Mo spoke his last words, his voice became unspeakably grim, as if he were a Demon God from the Netherworld!!

Living.

Yet damned never to find peace!!

Elder Ge was no longer able to utter a single word, hearing all this, he seemed to age several years all at once, his face turning ashen, suffering an indescribable agony, and his throat felt as though it was clogged with something filthy!

“Master Ge, what eventually happened to the people from the slaughterhouse, do you know?” Hong Mo continued.

Elder Ge shook his head.

“Not only did they not lose money, but they also made a fortune and bought land deeds on Changning Street, built beautiful houses, and prospered there, with children and grandchildren… Forty years ago, they should have been dragged to the execution grounds and dismembered, now a man surnamed Wei has burned them all to ashes, which is letting them off too lightly,” said Hong Mo.

“You… your true purpose isn’t revenge on Wei Zhuo’s family??” Elder Ge exclaimed in surprise.

During the time at Dream Hall, Elder Ge was eavesdropping on the side; naturally, he knew what had happened to Wei Zhuo and his family.

“It was a coincidence. However, most of the people there have the surname Wei, and they worship a common ancestor, so they can’t escape the connection,” Hong Mo said.

“But still, there are innocent children!” Elder Ge said.

“It’s alright, Eternal Darkness is coming, suffering will descend, rather than letting them be born into torment and humiliation, living in the prison of fear, it’s better to release them sooner. Where there are seeds of evil, they must be uprooted, and the best way to uproot is to start everything anew,” Hong Mo said.

“But… but… what about those Daoist Boys who were with you, are they doing well now?” Elder Ge found that he couldn’t counter.

“They are busily running around, trying to redeem themselves.”

“Redeem??”

“Yes, redeem. I have found a way to save their souls, and now they are selling it everywhere. All the earnings, they are using to make reparation for the sin of cannibalism they committed. If they can pay off their debt before they die, they don’t have to suffer Reincarnation in the Extreme Hell.”
