Chapter 712 The gutless general eats skull marrow
Wuchanzhou, Datuo Dynasty, General Lu's Mansion.
As soon as the sky was dawn, a few shrill screams came from the mansion, and blood was crying.
After hearing the voice, the whole mansion only sterned his face and lowered his head without saying anything, but some servants and maids still showed a look of fear and panic in their eyes.
Not long after, the guards in the mansion walked out of the backyard and walked in the garden with heavy steps. When the servants and maids along the way saw them, they all gave in to the side of the road, and did not dare to hesitate at all.
As the guards walked past, some servants' bodies trembled slightly, and their eyes looked at the two bamboo baskets surrounded by the guards.
These two bamboo baskets are really not small, one is long, and two are as wide as they are shoulder to shoulder, and they must reach the waist. Even if Kong Wu’s powerful guards have to work hard together, five or six people must be able to balance and pick them up.
At this moment, the basket was filled with things, and the heavy weight was quite heavy. It required eight guards to surround the basket to lift it up, so the steps were heavy and shaking.
As we walked along, there were dripping blood dripping in the gaps in the basket, extending intermittently along the way, making people feel creepy when they see it.
But immediately followed the servants in charge of the care, holding brooms, cloth, and rinsing the stone roads in the garden with water, cleaning them cleaned them up, and they immediately turned out to be completely renewed, but blood was vaguely visible.
However, these servants in charge of cleaning also had poor faces, and were connected with the servants and maids along the way, and the whole garden seemed to be depressed.
"I heard that there are people who have a bad fate today, two maids from the West Courtyard. The one who is in charge of changing clothes happened to encounter a general's attack. He was also swallowed up and killed his life like the inferior man outside."
When the guards were far away, the servants and servants whispered, recalling the scenes they saw in the bamboo basket, they couldn't help but shivered.
The basket was filled with corpses, each of which contained three or four people. The body was not intact, the broken limbs and arms were filled in the basket like gravel, tightly, blood was soaked in the clothes, and the color of the basket itself had long been covered up. I don’t know how many times it had been put on.
I know that another colleague died tragically. How could a servant or maid not feel sad about the death of a rabbit?
However, in this Wuyanzhou, you can get a good job, eat a full meal every day, and the silver you paid can support your family. How difficult is that? Who would have abandoned your work because of this kind of thing and went to that day when the whole family couldn't even eat enough?
Besides, if you dare to escape from the general's mansion, the world is so big that it may not have a foothold, and the final outcome may be even more miserable.
The owner of this mansion is General Lu, who was powerful in the 18 states in the world. He has made great achievements and a Tiger and Leopard Army under his command is invincible. He has fought back and retreated and inherited peace in the country. He is truly famous in the world.
The person who manages his family is just like the military. The military law is severe. If there is a slight violation, the minority of the law can be beaten, and the worst of the law can be beheaded! If there is a taboo, there is even the punishment of chariot splitting. Some people were once dismembered by five horses. If they are worse than the worst, even their colleagues must be seated and their families must be buried with them!
However, although the family management was severe in the past, there was still a reason to kill people and kill people. However, since this time he came out of seclusion, General Lu's temper became more and more volatile, and his cruelty had reached a higher level. He beat and scolded people at every turn, and killed people in anger. Not only that, he also ordered him to go outside every day, catch a little spiritual man and woman, devour his brain, and use it to nourish damage.
When the general is eating his brain, if there are servants, gardeners, maids, or even concubines in the family passing by or encountering him, they will often suffer the fish in the pond and die together.
Once the number of times is too many, everyone in the mansion is in danger. They are not afraid and cannot escape, and they are suffering.
The beginning of all this was General Lu's last exit from the seclusion a few days ago.
That day, the general was furious when he left the seclusion and his strength exploded, shattering the carefully crafted rockery in the backyard. Even the secret room used for seclusion was destroyed. The guards and servants on the side of the mountain died on the spot, and it was difficult to find the entire body.
Speaking of retreat, there is also a background.
When the general was young, by chance, he got a treasure and could only rise all the way. After layers of twists and turns, he eventually became a famous general, shocking the world.
When using this treasure, you need to sit quietly and silently, just like sleeping. In fact, the consciousness is gone, but if you are disturbed, the consciousness can be returned in an instant, which is not dangerous.
But as the status grew and the achievements grew, the general became less and less interested in being disturbed, so he had rockery and secret rooms. During his retreat, he ignored everything.
Not long ago, General Lu quelled the southern bandits. After returning to the court, he claimed a leave to the emperor, saying that he would devote himself to seclusion for several years and ignore military and political affairs. He was approved by the emperor and entered the secret room. Unexpectedly, he suddenly came out of seclusion in just a few months, got furious, destroyed the rockery and secret room, and then became more and more violent. Even the most favored ninth concubine Fangjun was scolded, beaten, and lost his favor, causing several wives in the backyard to intrigue.
However, as two concubines died tragically and one wife was seriously injured, the wives of the generals realized their power and began to feel frightened.
These contents were all in the whispering scope, but they did not dare to speak loudly. Half an hour later, there were "gurgling" sounds in the yard, which were suddenly emitted from the belly of the slaves and maids.
But no one found it strange, but walked together and headed to the house where the servants could eat. There were a lot of people here, including chefs and chefs who were busy eating themselves while preparing meals.
Not long after, the servants, maids and gardeners in the house all had a full meal. Someone had already sent the prepared dishes to the backyard to eat for the ladies and young men.
Eating more meals a day is the characteristic of people in Wuchanzhou. Because of their special body structure, their digestive ability is extremely strong and their nutritional intake efficiency is extremely high. In terms of ordinary people's physical fitness, their physique is far above Eastern Chinese.
Correspondingly, this makes them particularly strong intake of food. They have to eat once every two hours and have at least ten meals a day. If it is insufficient, they will be hungry.
This is also the reason why everyone would rather face life danger than leave the General's Mansion. Once they leave, including their own food, plus their family population, and the industry with a meager income, they would not have enough food at all.
In fact, the same is true. People from the Datuo Dynasty were divided into three or six grades, and those below the third grade were uniformly called inferior people. Although they had a job to barely survive, they were hungry all year round and saved money every day. They had to ensure at least three meals, otherwise they would starve to death. Therefore, the demand for food in this continent was extremely strong, far exceeding that of other continents!
Of course, under the influence of this strange physique, the more you eat, the faster and thoroughly you digest, the more abundant the nutrients you get. Even if you don’t deliberately polish your body and grow naturally, you can reach the peak of foundation building.
Even some people who practice martial arts can gain unique abilities through eating, such as General Lu devouring the human brain and raising damage, which is one of its abilities.
Therefore, the world is polarized in severe ways. The strong rely on occupying resources, manipulating everything, accumulating more and more, and even gaining things that they cannot use at all, pressing into the warehouse, and eventually decay. However, ordinary people want to have enough food but cannot get it.
These things seem to be very abstract to say, but General Lu once explained it in one sentence-
It was a New Year's Day. The general was in a good mood. After drinking two more cups, he received a reward. Everyone in the mansion could get half a month's rations, and the whole mansion was very happy.
After seeing this, the general said earnestly: "Although there are many things that can be eaten in the world, the growth cycle is limited in the end. There are hundreds of millions of creatures in the world. If everyone lives like you, it will be unimaginable. Therefore, it is necessary to suppress it every year. When there are forces to rise, they must be surrounded, suppressed, and destroyed. Otherwise, our descendants will eventually fall into the same as those inferior people!"
This statement made the people in the mansion remember it and felt it was reasonable. In the future, when facing accusations, even if they knew the truth was in the wrong, they would fabricate reasonable reasons to defend it and distort the righteousness, and call it the truth that is in the world and is suitable for the world.
To put it bluntly, it is just a zero-sum game. If you take up more, I will be less. How can I compromise?
Because of this, no matter how high-sounding the words are, they are just shyness. People who do not let the dirty things under the table be revealed to the world. Those who believe in the words of shyness are truly sad. However, often these people feel that everyone is drunk and I am awake, thinking that they know the truth.
For example, the people in this mansion seem to have a low status, but they are not lacking in wisdom. The reason they firmly believe is because of their own interests, not blindness, and even fear will face it.
So after eating, a servant walked to the general's residence with fear. As soon as he arrived at the door, he was about to make a sound, but he heard a roar from the room-
"Why can't I write it? It shouldn't be. I'm so satisfied with the Supreme Ring. I've gone all the way. Even if there are twists and turns, I can turn bad luck into good luck. I'm definitely the best person in the world? Why have I read so many classics and even occupied four original spirits, but I can't write anything at this time? My mind is empty, and I can't even figure out the way. Looking at the classics, I'm just like that..."
The roar was like thunder, causing the servants outside the door to change their faces and choked their throats, but at this moment, the sound in the room suddenly changed-
"Hmm? What's going on? Not good!"
Boom!
After the words came, the door exploded!
The servant at the door flew out with a sudden impact from the energy, but he still opened his eyes hard and looked forward hard. He happened to see a mess. General Lu sat cross-legged in it, full of energy, but his expression was full of shock and anger. An illusion that was exactly the same as him flew out from his head, merged into a vortex, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Then the air flow subsided, and the servant fell to the ground and fainted in pain. But at the last moment, he saw the general bowing his head suddenly and silenced.
The light and shadow change, the starry sky is in a flash, and when General Lu's consciousness stabilizes, a voice came from before—
"Lu Hu, you are here, this game of chess can begin."
