From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

Page 1003

Miss Liu spoke with great conviction.

"...Does your Confucian Society even eat people?"

Wugensheng exclaimed in surprise, "I've heard that Yuhang has a bumper harvest every year!"

"Do you understand the analogy? It's like you're called the reincarnation of the Monkey King by the locals. Could it be that you really are?" Miss Liu carried Wugensheng on her shoulder, and with her slender-waisted dog, she rode the clouds and returned to the Gongpai camp in a short while.

Seeing Zhang Dong, Wei Shufen, Feng Tianyang, Zhao Pingshan, and Zhao Tianhai all present, Wugensheng laughed and said, "Only my eldest brother escaped?"

The five men didn't have the same thick skin as Wugensheng; as prisoners, they couldn't afford to be so carefree.

Mr. Ren was also a decisive person, and he directly executed the seventy-two demon generals of Quanxing!

Those seventy-two demons were tied to pillars, cursing and swearing. They showed no remorse and no sign of the righteousness that comes with death. They were the epitome of human bodies with demonic hearts. What use were they?

Bang bang bang!

With each gunshot, the seventy-two demon generals fell completely silent.

The other warlords and bandits, however, had a conscience. Some cried out for their parents, while others wet their pants, all kowtowing and begging for mercy, not wanting to die.

However, Mr. Ren did not kill all of these people.

This is a critical time.

This is precisely the time when we need people.

Anyone whose wrongdoing is not too serious should be recruited and reformed.

of course.

The fundamental reason is that these people still have some conscience and understand right and wrong, so they have a chance to change their ways; otherwise, they would all have to be shot.

thereafter.

All eyes turned to Wugensheng and the other five...

Chapter 1322 Execution of Wugensheng

"How should we deal with those six ringleaders?"

Mr. Ren asked Jiang Liu for his opinion.

Jiang Liu remained calm and did not directly protect Wugensheng. He simply said, "As the leader of the bandits, Wugensheng should be held responsible for this and should be executed by firing squad."

Upon hearing this, Wugensheng was dumbfounded—

No!

Are you really going to kill him?

"Tie Wugensheng to the pillar."

Mr. Ren gave the order.

However, after Wugensheng was bound, the chains that pierced his collarbone were removed by Miss Liu, allowing him to circulate his qi.

"???"

Wugensheng was somewhat puzzled. He was certain that Jiang Liu had instructed him to do this, but why would he do something like this?

boom!

Gunshots rang out.

The bullet struck Wugensheng precisely between the eyebrows, but the bullet tip did not penetrate his head; instead, it bounced off.

"Ok?"

Mr. Ren was startled and said to the shooter, "Shoot again, don't stop!"

"Yes!"

The executioner continued firing, each shot hitting its mark without leaving a trace, but the target transformed into a metallic form, deflecting all the bullets and remaining completely unharmed.

"Is this guy really the reincarnation of Sun Wukong?"

Mr. Ren was somewhat frightened when he saw that Wugensheng was truly invulnerable to swords and spears, but he was relieved to think that Jiang Liu was right beside him. He asked, "Chairman Jiang, is there any way to deal with him?"

"In that case, hand him and the other five over to me. What do you say? With such abilities, it would be a pity if they died. If they can return to the righteous path, that would be good too."

Jiang Liu then asked Mr. Ren for the person.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Ren knew perfectly well that Jiang Liu had long anticipated Wu Gengsheng's abilities. So he went along with it and handed Wu Gengsheng and the other five people over to Jiang Liu to deal with.

“Mr. Ren, please also hand over those Quanxing members who are still alive to us for disposal; they may be useful in the future,” Hong Guniang said.

"And those whole corpses."

Bai Yuekui also spoke up, and seeing the fear on Mr. Ren's and the nearby soldiers' faces, he added, "The advancement of medicine requires the study of the human body."

Although these Quanxing individuals may have demonic hearts, they still possess human form. Recycling and utilizing their resources to benefit the people is better than letting them rot away in vain.

Having said that, Mr. Ren dared not refuse and immediately agreed, then asked, "What about those warlords, bandits..."

“These people still have some conscience, Mr. Ren can make his own decision.”

Lu Jin's question didn't involve asking for anyone, which relieved Mr. Ren. He then asked, "President Jiang, would you be willing to help us deal with the Guo faction?"

"Isn't the Confucian Society cooperating with the Gong faction?"

Jiang Liu asked in return.

"You know that's not what I meant."

Mr. Ren stared at Jiang Liu—if Jiang Liu and the others completely joined the Gong faction, then the Guo faction wouldn't be able to keep going for long.

“Ah, Mr. Ren, I don’t want to be people’s protector for the rest of my life. I hope that one day, everyone will be able to protect themselves,” Jiang Liu sighed.

"it's out of the question!"

Mr. Ren described a reality.

"Is the ideal of the 'Bow School' realistic?"

Jiang Liu asked again.

Mr. Ren opened his mouth, but didn't know how to start speaking.

"The world is indeed not good, but haven't all the talented and ambitious people throughout history wanted to make it better? Just like Taoism and Buddhism in China, perhaps there are some problems with the sects now, but their original founders all wanted to make the world a better place."

Jiang Liu smiled slightly and clasped his hands in greeting to Mr. Ren. "Mr. Ren, the next time we meet may be the moment when the new world truly arrives."

Finally, I hope Mr. Ren will keep this in mind:

Although the "bowing faction" and the "pot-making faction" are now irreconcilable, they were both born and raised in China, and are ultimately one family.

"One family..."

Mr. Ren murmured to himself, but Jiang Liu waved his hand and disappeared without a trace.

"Truly a divine being!"

After a sigh, Mr. Ren quickly composed himself and ordered his men to begin post-war management. He also contacted the local authorities to reorganize the Seven Saints Association in the Sichuan region.

Jiang Liu and his group had already returned to Yuhang, where they sealed the hundreds of Quanxing members who were still alive and imprisoned them in the cellar under the Yue Wang Temple.

There is a cellar beneath Yue Wang Temple, which was used by the monks of the temple to "gift seeds" to women who came to pray for children, before the time of Elder Rusong.

After Rusong of Lingyin Temple became the abbot of Yue Fei Temple, he discontinued its use...

Since Ru Song had already joined the Confucian Society, the cellar was temporarily converted into a prison cell, which was just right for imprisoning members of the Quanxing Society.

The body of the deceased Quanxing was temporarily stored in Hong Guniang's storage ring and went with Bai Yuekui to the "Soul Storage Furnace" at the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon in West Lake.

The remaining "six saints" went to the opera troupe's courtyard with Jiang Liu, Lu Jin, and Miss Liu.

Miss Liu brought out a table, Lu Jin brought out a stool, and Jiang Liu served snacks and tea, saying, "Sit down."

Of the six, Wugensheng was the first to sit down, followed by Wei Shufen. The remaining four looked at each other and could only sit down reluctantly.

Wugensheng grabbed a handful of peanuts, placed them in front of him, crushed the shells, and popped the peanut kernels into his mouth. Showing no remorse as a prisoner, he asked, "Chairman, since you intended to rescue us from the beginning, why did you have General Ren execute me once?"

"You defected to that commander-in-chief and caused such chaos in Sichuan, shouldn't you be executed?" Jiang Liu retorted.

"Got it!"

Wugensheng had nothing to say to this. "How are you going to deal with me? You want me to be your henchman? Fine, but don't make me manage people. I'm not cut out for that."

"Management? Dream on!"

Jiang Liu popped a piece of sweet cake into his mouth, chewing as he said, "You're the leader of the Quanxing Sect! And you've committed such a heinous crime! If you don't have a chance to make amends, you can't be allowed to appear openly in the public eye again—"

That's all for now.

Jiang Liu turned his gaze to the other five people and said, "Let's talk about how I'm going to deal with you. I will inform your elders and ask them to come over."

"no!"

Wei Shufen refused immediately.

"Don't rush, let me finish what I have to say."

Jiang Liu said, “At that time, you will have two choices: go home with your elders or stay in the Confucian Association.”

In an instant.

The air at the scene fell silent.

Feng Tianyang cautiously probed, "If I want to stay, but my elders insist on taking me back, can you guarantee I'll stay?"

"No."

Jiang Liu answered.

Everyone: "???"

Wei Shufen laughed in anger: "Then there's only one choice? My master will definitely take me back and never let me leave the house again!"

Zhao Pingshan, Zhao Tianhai, Zhang Dong, and Feng Tianyang also tacitly agreed to this option.
