When everyone in the Huo family heard Taotie's words, their expressions changed dramatically, and they all knelt down and begged.
"You are unkind and I am unjust. Although I am not a tyrant, do you think I have no temper?"
Taotie tapped his fingers and was about to cast the spell when Feng Yi immediately shouted: "What are you going to do and what is it!"
"Well, you are all curious, right?"
Taotie pondered for a moment and then smiled and said, "Okay, I'll tell you a little story.
It is said that a hundred years ago, the rule of the Qing Dynasty was still relatively stable, but its decline was already evident. The officials and officials protecting each other made it difficult for the people to make a living.
At that time, I was wandering around the world, and accidentally came to Wosonggang, where I saw a poor mother and son."
Mother and son?
Feng Yi and others frowned slightly, but the Huo family members changed their expressions.
“At that time, Wosonggang was just a desolate land. Everyone was so hungry that only skin and bones were left, there was no food, and even the turf and tree bark were almost eaten away.
The backbone of the family died of exhaustion early on, and the mother and son depended on each other. However, the mother really loved her son and tried every means to find food. She even did not hesitate to feed her son with her own blood when there was a shortage of water and food.
But there is nothing we can do, my son is still hungry, and the young and strong boy has the biggest appetite.
I thought it was very interesting at the time. I was wondering which of the mother and son would die first, so I stayed to observe. Unexpectedly, the vitality of the two was really tenacious. A month later, almost everyone around them was dead.
, they are still alive.”
A faint smile appeared on Taotie's face: "So, I showed up, and I said to the son, do you want to survive, do you want to live a life like a master?
The answer is self-evident. This kid knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly, begging me to help me.
I said I can't help you for no reason, how about you find me a newborn baby and let me eat it, and I will agree after eating it.
He didn't hesitate at all, and soon found an opportunity to steal a baby. After I ate it in front of him, he was a little scared, a little scared, but still a little curious, as if he was curious about what a baby tasted like.
But then I didn't agree to him. I said I wanted to eat a young girl, and he did it again. This time when I was eating someone, I could clearly see him licking his lips.
Later I said, if you want to live the life you want, you have to dedicate your mother to me. This time, he hesitated..."
Speaking of this, Taotie paused, looked at Feng Yi and others with a smile and said, "Guess, did he agree in the end?"
Feng Yi and others felt a chill in their hearts. Human nature is complex. The reason why we can stick to our nature is the law, the rules, and the restrictions and requirements of society. Once broken, the animal nature in people's bones will explode and become more ferocious than animals.
monster.
The devil in this son's heart has been summoned by Taotie, and there is no way back.
Thinking of this, they looked at the Huo family and thought that this matter had something to do with their ancestors.
"Well, the answer is self-evident. He only hesitated for a moment and then brought the mother who gave birth to him and raised him in front of me."
Taotie smiled and waved his hands and said: "Don't think too much, his mother is already skin and bones, and I am not that picky about food.
But now that my three tests have been completed, I have given him a healthy body and endless wealth.
Since then, this son has transformed into the richest man in Wollongong. He began to build houses, rent farmers, and live the life he dreamed of.
And his mother, the mother who raised him with blood, was chained by him in a dog cage in the darkroom, never seeing the light of day, and living a life of starvation.
Despite this, his mother still loved and cared about him as before, without any complaints.
Until one day, when the son ate a newborn baby in front of his mother and told her that the food he had fed her for so many years was human flesh, the mother went completely crazy.
This poor woman wailed in the dog cage for three whole days and three nights. She was as hungry as a skeleton and cried blood to death. I felt quite miserable when I saw that scene."
Speaking of this, Taotie raised his lips and said, "Do you know what happened next?
My mother's corpse cannot be cut with a knife or burned by fire. It will come back on its own after being buried in the soil. Even if it is buried in the sea with a huge boulder, it will still reappear the next day.
The rich and powerful son found many Taoist priests and monks to practice the method. As a result, if they failed to do it, they would all die suddenly and harm their relatives and friends around him.
My son was afraid and asked me for help again, so I temporarily sealed his mother's body.
But I made three agreements with him at that time. First, he and his descendants must continue to eat human flesh;
Second, one of his descendants must live longer than the previous one;
Third, once any of his descendants live over a hundred years old, they must agree to my request. If they fail to do so, they will suffer consequences.
He agreed again.
You don't know that although he has the habit of cannibalizing human flesh, his descendants and relatives do not. In order to continue the prosperity of their family and to avoid suffering the negative consequences, the things he did are really countless.
At first, she just ate the flesh of outsiders, then she became a young maid in the house, and then she became a concubine and gave birth to a child...
And this habit of cannibalism has been passed down from generation to generation.
Therefore, people in their family often disappear, and new faces often appear. Once someone discovers the secret, they will become a dish to their family.
Tell me, is this story interesting and amusing?"
Taotie grinned, showing his sharp white teeth.
"vomit!"
After hearing this story, everyone in the room vomited again, and even Ma Danna and Luo Sang couldn't hold it back. Although Feng Yi barely held it back, his face was pale and his whole body was cold.
In this family that has been passed down for hundreds of years, everyone eats human flesh and lives a life that is worse than that of an animal. Just thinking about it makes people feel cold and chilly running down their backs.
Ao Tianlong opened his eyes angrily and stared at the Huo family, full of anger.
Unexpectedly, the well-known Huo family would turn out to be such a devil's nest. They are countless times scarier than those ferocious monsters that stop babies from crying!
And I have always praised them so much, and yet I was tricked into being their thug and shield. I really lost my mind.
Thinking about what Dagui said before, he felt even more regretful.
Compared to Ao Tianlong, Feng Yi thought more deeply. What kind of monster has the mother's body that made the ancestors of the Huo family so afraid and the being that could be sealed by Taotie himself turned into?
After hundreds of years of resentment and despair, what kind of bloody storm will it cause after reappearing in the world?
"Okay, I've finished telling the story, and I believe it has helped you clear up your doubts. Now, it's time to end the injustice and the debtor."
