Two hours later, Shangyu, the county government office.
Sun En was dressed in a tight-fitting Taoist robe, covered with leather armor, and his hair was tied up with a broad belt. His eyes were bloodshot, and there were still drops of blood on the long sword in his hand. This long sword made of fine steel, actually There were also several gaps on the sword body, which showed how heavy the killing was along the way. Behind him, Shen Mufu, with his five sons, and dozens of murderous Tianshi Dao disciples, stood solemnly. Outside the yamen, there were farmers holding swords and even hoes and pitchforks. Many women were also dressed in shorts and followed behind with wooden sticks. Inside the county yamen, there were corpses of officers and soldiers everywhere. , and more than a hundred sergeants were disarmed, wearing only single clothes, kneeling in the courtyard of the Yamen, shivering.
Sun En's eyes fell on a bloody corpse lying in front of the hall. This corpse had been chopped beyond recognition. It could only be seen from the green official uniform he was wearing. It was a county-level official. Sun En turned to look at Shen Mufu aside: "Master Shen Tan, is this person Xu Zuozhi, the magistrate of Shangyu County?"
Shen Mufu nodded and said: "This person is Xu Zuozhi. My son Shen Yunzi is the Prime Minister of Shangyu County. He personally led his fellow Taoists to raid the county government office. He wanted to capture Xu Zuozhi and parade him through the streets. But we didn’t expect that this person would kill himself one step ahead of us, huh, he knows what he’s doing!”
Sun En's teeth chattered: "Xu Zuozhi used to have a good relationship with Chief Xie, the internal historian of Kuaiji. It was this Chief Xie who fabricated charges to kill my uncle and killed thousands of fellow Taoists. This hatred and hatred are not shared. Dai Tian, and this Xu Zuozhi, sent county government officials many times to exterminate and attack us, and I don’t know how many Taoist friends died at the hands of this thief!"
Shen Yunzi nodded: "Yes, so we gave in to the thieves' favor and let many Taoist friends from the main altar pretend to be captured by the officers and soldiers and put them in prison. The leader of the cult led the Taoist friends from the general altar to raid them. At that time, we released the Taoist friends in prison in the city and cooperated with each other inside and outside. Shangyu can be regarded as an important coastal town. However, under our attack, it fell in less than half a day. Many of those Taoist friends in prison had relatives and friends. My friend died at the hands of Xu Zuozhi, so after his death, everyone hacked his body into this shape with knives. The disciples were unable to restrain themselves, so they asked the teacher to punish him!"
Sun En waved his hand: "What is the punishment? You have done a good job. These corrupt officials and aristocratic families have been bullying us for so many years, shitting and peeing on our heads, drinking our blood, and occupying our land. Stealing our sons and daughters, believers, how have you lived these years?!"
Thousands of believers outside the Yamen shouted in unison: "Please save us, save us!"
Sun En said loudly: "Yes, in the past, we preached and gave alms, just to save the world and save the people. The Heavenly Lord had a decree, asking us to be patient for the time being and wait for the right time. Therefore, in our various altars and halls, dear senior brothers and apostles, When I was preaching, I told everyone to be patient for the time being and not to fight against the government. This patience lasted for decades. But what did our patience gain in exchange? What we got in exchange was that the government became even more cruel and unscrupulous. , they took away our land and the food and cloth we had earned with our hard work, but they were not satisfied yet. Now, they want to make every household of us work as slaves, abandon our wives and children, and go to the north to follow the barbarians and cruelty. Don’t you know that even the Beifu Army in Jingkou fights in the north? Every household wears mourning and every household dies. The government wants your life and every male in your family. Die in a foreign land, so that they can take your children as their own openly and become their slaves forever!"
The believers' anger was like a volcano erupting, and they shouted in unison: "Kill the dog official, kill the dog official!"
Sun En laughed: "Very good, very good. What I want is this momentum. Fellow Taoists and sisters, you have endured too much and suffered too much over the years! Now, I have obtained the will of the Heavenly Master, and he Tell me, the last words of the Hundred-Ren Dafa, that is, if you can’t bear it anymore, there is no need to bear it any longer!”
All the people opened their eyes wide. Shen Mufu took the opportunity to draw the sword from his waist and shouted: "I can't bear it anymore. There is no need to bear it anymore!"
The crowd was furious, and thousands of voices were shouting at the same time: "No need to bear it any more, no need to bear it any more!"
Sun En pointed his long sword at Xu Zuozhi's bloody corpse on the ground, and said loudly: "It's these dog officials, these high-ranking families, who are oppressing us, maiming us, and taking away everything from us. This time, I have been worshiped by the heavenly master." I will lead everyone to avenge them. The Heavenly Master has given me supreme magic power and supernatural powers. How can I resist these dog officials and their minions? In less than half a day after going to Yucheng, it fell into the hands of the divine religion. How can it be done by human power? Can you resist? Now, the Heavenly Master has issued another decree, asking me to deal with the demons who are enemies of the divine religion. What do you think we should do?"
The people outside the Yamen all roared angrily: "Kill them, kill the monster!"
More than a hundred sergeants in the yamen were so frightened that they all kowtowed and begged for mercy. One of the leading officers cried: "Master Sun, please let us go. We, we are all ordinary farmers who were captured as errands. We also I just served Xu County, oh, no, I was forced by this dog official to resist. We, we are not monsters, God has the virtue of good life, and the Heavenly Master has always been merciful and helpful to others, please let us go!"
A cold light flashed in Sun En's eyes: "What you said is not bad. The Heavenly Master has always been compassionate and helpful to others. As long as he is a brother of the divine religion, he can help him. But on the contrary, the demon who is an enemy of the divine religion will inevitably Both body and spirit are destroyed, and there is no whole body left in death, just like Xu Zuozhi! Now I give you a chance to choose for yourself, whether you want to join a spiritual cult and become a Taoist friend, or become a demon!"
The officer kept saying: "Young man is willing to join the religious sect, work as a cow or a horse, and serve the Heavenly Master!"
All the other sergeants also begged for mercy, and for a while, the courtyard was filled with people. The prisoners all swore and swore, and all of a sudden they became fanatical believers.
Sun En waved his hand coldly: "You are too evil and have done too many bad things. If you want to join the religious sect, you have to wait for your soul to be purified. Now, I will give you a chance. This Xu Zuozhi is a monster. Transformation, his flesh and blood is the flesh of an old demon who has been cultivating for thousands of years. If you eat it, you can cleanse your soul and become an immortal like other Taoist friends. The divine religion can also absorb you as its disciples. If you don't eat it, , Humph, that means that the demon nature has become too strong and there is no turning back, so you have to eliminate it together with this demon. Whether you want to be an immortal or a demon, you can choose for yourself!"
