If you don't want others to know, don't do anything except yourself. You think everything is perfect, but you don't realize that when you do bad things, there are other eyes staring at you!"
Mr. Gu's voice was stern and he looked at everyone in warning: "The reason why the Gu family has remained standing for nearly two hundred years is because of nothing else but the priests!"
He took the hands of Gu Fenglin and Gu Fengyuan and said solemnly: "You think that they enjoy all the glory and wealth, and that everyone is working hard to worship them, but you have never thought that everything you have comes from them..."
"Without them, how could you live such a good life? Who are you? You would have been torn apart by wild dogs and eaten clean!"
"Do you know what the situation of retired priests is like? I only saw thieves eating meat, but I didn't see thieves being beaten..."
Old Mrs. Gu suddenly walked down the steps and walked deeper into the crowd.
Everyone automatically made way for him, and he walked along this road until he reached an inconspicuous corner.
Gu Yilan sat there quietly, her face pale.
Mr. Gu put his hand on his shoulder, looked around everyone, and said in a deep voice: "Did you see that, this is your last priest. He, my son, is young, but he is about to die!"
"Does any of you remember how many things he did for Zhao and the family during his tenure? Do any of you know how many wrongs he suffered?"
"He successfully predicted more than 50 natural disasters, large and small, and allowed tens of thousands of people to successfully avoid disasters... For this reason, His Majesty rewarded the Gu family with a number of gold and silver farms, so that you can have clothes in winter, ice in summer, houses to live in, and meat to eat.
..."
Mr. Gu talked generously, but Gu Yilan had no expression from beginning to end.
Mr. Gu didn't care how he felt, patted him on the shoulder, walked back to the steps, pointed at Elder Zhi and said: "As an elder, you enjoy all the honors, but you don't perform your duties, but instead give us food and clothing so cruelly."
What's the point of people?"
Someone shouted loudly: "Kill him! Kill him!"
The rest of the people followed suit and shouted: "Kill him! Kill him!"
"Quiet!" Gu Fenglin raised his hand and pressed it down, asking Elder Zhi: "I believe you wouldn't do such a thing for no reason. Tell me the reason..."
Elder Zhi had been hanging upside down, his face had turned purple, and the veins on his forehead and neck were swollen as thick as chopsticks. It was obvious that he was in great pain, but he remained silent.
Gu Fenglin asked him again: "Did I treat you badly? Did I not respect you enough? Did I do something wrong to make you have this grudge?"
Elder Zhi suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Gu Fenglin intently.
Gu Fenglin said: "Put him down, he has something to say."
Elder Zhi shook his head feebly and looked at him with a sad smile.
Elder Xing said: "Old Zhi, you and I are both elders of the clan and have been in love for many years. If you tell the truth, I will definitely intercede for you! Who instigated you?"
Elder Zhi's eyes shone brightly, he looked at him steadily for a while, and said, "No, I did it alone. In my opinion, Gu family and Mu family are both monsters and should not live in the world.
Damn it!"
Elder Xing shouted: "If you refuse to repent! Old Master, Elder De, my suggestion is to punish him severely according to the clan rules!"
Old Mrs. Gu, Elder De and others discussed quietly for a while. Old Mrs. Gu said with a cold face: "In that case, execution! This has not happened to the Gu family for many years. Today, the execution must be carried out in public to serve as a warning to others!" (Unfinished)
