Chapter 1916: Crazy
Chapter 1916: Crazy
"I still remember the names of those people. Zhaman, why are you so cruel?"
Bayer slowly read out the names and identities of those people, questioning Zhaman again and again why he was so cruel. The voice that could not be blocked out tortured Zhaman to the point that he almost went crazy.
He didn't dare open his eyes the whole night, but he didn't fall asleep either.
It was not until dawn that the voice belonging to Bayer disappeared. Zhaman was finally able to take a breath and fell asleep unknowingly.
After an unknown amount of time, the cell door was opened again. Amir walked in and saw Zhaman sleeping. She sneered and said, "How can he still sleep like this? Someone, wake him up."
"Yes."
The subordinate responded and quickly brought a basin of water, and poured it on Zha Man's face without hesitation. The water washed away the blood on his face and turned into blood dripping onto the ground.
“Ahem…” Zhaman started coughing and slowly opened his eyes. Seeing that it was Amir, he was relieved: “Amir, it’s you. Was it you who asked someone to pretend to be Bayer last night?”
Zhaman looked at Amir intently, trying to read something on her face.
Amir suddenly smiled, changing his previous cold and serious face, and his tone became cheerful: "No pretending, my brother is back."
There was a gleam of joy in her eyes; she was truly happy, without any trace of pretense, which made Zhaman even more confused and shocked. Before he could figure everything out, Amir continued.
"I am also very happy that my brother can come back. However, Zhaman, even if my brother comes back, you can't escape. I will not forget the suffering my brother has endured over the years, and I will pay you back double."
In just a moment, Amir's eyes turned cold, and she waved her hand. Her subordinates immediately understood and picked up the whip to hit Zhaman.
The sound of the whip cutting through the air rang in his ears and sounded extremely terrifying. Amir only called a halt when the man was beaten to death and covered with wounds.
"Bring me some salt water and push it in for me."
Amir pointed lightly with his bare hand, a dangerous smile spread across the corner of his mouth, and the guards quickly brought in a large bucket filled with salt water.
Two guards, one on each side, untied Zaman and threw him into a bucket. The salt water soaked his wounds, and the pain was so severe that he almost fainted.
"Ahhh!"
"Amir, you bastard, you bastard, you killed me, you killed me!"
Zhaman grimaced in pain and kept shouting, hoping that Amir would get angry and kill him.
The severe pain made him unable to bear it any longer and he fainted in the salt water. Looking at the lifeless Zaman, Amir said indifferently: "Fill him out and give him a new life."
"Yes, my lord."
The guards began to take action and Amir left the cell. At night, Bayer came again and kept questioning and accusing Zhaman in his ear.
During the day, Amir tortured him, and at night, Bayer tortured him. This went on for several days. On the sixth day, Zhaman finally couldn't bear it anymore and became a little crazy. At night, when Bayer's voice sounded again, he roared in rage.
"Shut up, shut up!"
"Bayer, what right do you have to question me? In the past, you always suppressed me in everything. As long as you are here, I will never be able to get ahead. I am jealous of you, and I just want to kill you."
As he was talking, Zhaman suddenly laughed out loud, and the chains tied to him jingled as he struggled violently. "I despise hypocrites like you the most. You rely on useless kindness to gain the support of the people, but you take away everything that belongs to me!"
The cell was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Amidst the roars of extreme collapse, the truth gradually surfaced.
Originally, he was supposed to be responsible for border trade, but because the people liked Bayer more, this good job finally fell on Bayer.
"Bayer, you are a waste. You have nothing except your useless kindness. I made a simple calculation and you lost hundreds of people. Hahaha." Zhaman laughed as if he didn't care about anything and he looked a little crazy.
As if he was lost in memories, he spat out a mouthful of blood and kept muttering, restoring the truth of that year.
"I alienated the Yang family and caused them to turn against you. When you were fighting, I killed you. I clearly killed you, so why did you come back?"
At that time, in addition to Bayer, the Yang family was also involved in the border affairs. They devised a plan to alienate Bayer and the Yang family, forcing the Yang family to resist and a fight broke out between the two sides.
He took advantage of this opportunity to intervene and killed Bayer and more than 300 of his subordinates, and successfully put the blame on the Yang family.
Thinking of how Amir had been seeking revenge on the Yang family for so many years and seeking the truth, Zhaman couldn't help but sneer: "And your stupid sister, hahaha, has been seeking revenge on the Yang family for so many years, so stupid."
As soon as he finished speaking, a female voice suddenly came into the cell.
"So, that's the whole truth."
I saw the group of people led by the King of Xirong, Chen Changli, Wan Shufang, and Amir walking into the prison. Amir's eyes were red and watery, and he stared at Zhaman with disgust: "Zhaman, you killed more than 300 people just because of jealousy!"
She even killed her brother!
Her body was trembling slightly, but Wan Shufang still supported her. Thinking of the person above Yang Afu mentioned, Amir now understood that the person must be Zhaman.
"Come here, pass on my order. Zha Man has harmed countless people and committed heinous crimes. He will be taken to the Meridian Gate to be executed at 3:30 p.m. tomorrow."
The King of Xirong gave the order, and the fake Bayer also tore off the human skin mask. Realizing that he had been deceived, Zhaman suddenly turned pale. The truth was revealed, the guilt had been admitted, and only death was waiting for him.
Several people also left the prison. Now that the matter was settled, Chen Changli and Wan Shufang prepared to leave. They followed Amir to pay tribute to Yang Afu.
Although the villagers of Wuming Village were related to Bayer's death, they were ultimately being used by others and their crimes did not deserve the death penalty.
Thinking of this, Wan Shufang reached out and patted Amir on the shoulder: "Cheer up, at least the truth of that year has been revealed. You still have to walk the road ahead by yourself."
"I think your brother doesn't want to see you sad for too long."
Hearing this, Amir turned her head and glanced at Chen Changli and Wan Shufang. Taking in the comfort in their eyes, she smiled.
"I'm fine, don't worry. I don't hate Wuming Village anymore. Otherwise, why would I come to worship this guy?"
She could tell right from wrong. She could not forgive Wuming Village, but she would not hate it anymore. The ashes of the burning paper money drifted away with the wind, just like blowing away their past.
After returning to the villa, Chen Changli and Wan Shufang stayed in Xirong for another two days. After making sure that everything was fine, they said goodbye to Amir and made an appointment to meet again if possible before leaving Xirong.
As the carriage was moving, Wan Shufang lifted the curtain and saw that it was not the road back to Yongzhou City. She looked puzzled and said, "This is not the road back to Yongzhou. Chen Changli, where are we going?"
"Shufang, you forgot that we still have one thing to resolve."
