According to Lao Liu's idea, the man had already been tortured for a day. The pain of being skinned, exposed to the sun, and constantly bitten by mosquitoes was something even an iron man couldn't endure.

The spirits of several people had long since collapsed. Death was the greatest happiness for them now. Where would they find the will to resist?

Unexpectedly, the man shook his head and said, "I have nothing to tell you."

Lao Liu waved his fan and released a ghost: "Go to the well outside and fetch a bucket of water. Force a bowl into him and pour the rest all over his body. Go get a human skin from outside and drape it over him."

The ghost responded and went to pour the water on the man as Lao Liu instructed. Before long, the man's body and the new skin grew together. The man also regained some spirit: "Thank you, Master Liu, for saving my life, but each serves his own master, I cannot…"

"Don't thank me, don't thank me!" the old man said, shaking his fan. "In a while, I'll have to do it again. Just curse me a little softer."

"Someone, peel his skin off again, and by the way, put Gu poison on him."

"Before you do it, sew up his mouth. I can't stand the screams."

The man's eyes almost popped out of their sockets: "Liu Bao, you…"

Before he could finish cursing, the ghost sealed his mouth.

Lao Liu gently waved his fan and said to the ghost, "Skinning and Bone-picking, those four are dead, but their secret methods were left behind. I've had you learning for so long, today is the time to test you. Don't disappoint me."

Hei Ye Xiao glanced at the ghost: "Lao Liu, your tastes are a bit heavy. Skinning and the others have all vanished into thin air, but you insisted on creating four ghosts and changing their names to theirs. Do you have that much affection for them?"

Lao Liu shook his head: "One is that I'm used to using them. The other thing is! These ghosts' names aren't easy to remember, so I have to give them some names that are easy to remember!"

While Lao Liu and Hei Ye Xiao were talking and laughing, Skinning had already finished his work. Lao Liu then waved his fan and released another ghost who was covered in lumps and as fat as a bear.

This ghost was named Poison by Lao Liu and specialized in poison.

Lao Liu pointed at the man with his hand, and Poison opened his mouth and blew a mouthful of poisonous gas at him. The man's entire body was instantly covered with a layer like moss, and the blood flowing out of his body bubbled as if it were boiling.

Everyone watched as the muscles on the man's body were corroded little by little. During this process, the man would suddenly wake up every time he was about to faint from the pain.

This kind of torture, where one couldn't even faint, was chilling.

Lao Liu turned to the remaining people and said, "Do you want to be loyal to your master? If you do, nod your heads. I won't ask."

"If you don't want to, point out your leader with your eyes."

Several people turned their eyes at the same time and focused their gaze on one person. Lao Liu smiled with satisfaction and said, "Very good! Untie him, and give the rest water and rinse their bodies."

Lao Liu walked up to the leader and said, "Tell me! What do you want to choose?"

The man said, "Master, as long as you help me get my skin back, I'll tell you everything."

Lao Liu smiled slightly: "Alright!"

Lao Liu said: "Do as he asks, and pour him a cup of tea while you're at it."

The man knew that Lao Liu's cup of tea wasn't so easy to drink. If he dared to play any tricks, he would end up even worse than the man before him.

Without Lao Liu asking, the man said, "My name is Liu Gang, a captain in the Samsara Division. This time, I was ordered to infiltrate Da Meng Xiang and investigate the secret of them needing to buy back corpses."

Lao Liu said, "The people of Da Meng Xiang want to buy corpses, how did you know about that?"

Liu Gang said, "The Samsara Division has long known of the existence of Da Meng Xiang. In the past, the Holy Maiden even came in once."

Lao Liu interrupted him: "Who is the Holy Maiden you're talking about? Is it Zhu Zining, or Zhu Ziyan?"

"It should be Zhu Ziyan, right?" the man said, "The Holy Maiden came in more than twenty years ago, right? I'm not sure about the specific time, I just heard that it was during that time period."

Lao Liu nodded slightly: This man wasn't even at the Hall Master level, so he couldn't possibly know too many inside secrets.

Seeing that Lao Liu didn't say anything, Liu Gang continued on his own: "After the Holy Maiden came out, she has been maintaining contact with the people in Da Meng Xiang."

"If that person wants to communicate with the Holy Maiden, he will have Tong Yang Che Ma take out something. The Zuo family is disciplined and never looks to see if there are any hidden compartments in the secret treasure. After he comes out, someone will go and buy the secret treasure. That person's letter will then be brought to the Holy Maiden."

"If the Holy Maiden wants to reply to someone, she will have someone enter Da Meng Xiang."

"That person will usually light three incense sticks near Da Meng Xiang and wait for Tong Yang Che Ma to pick them up."

"As far as I know, those incense sticks have all been specially treated, and no matter how they are burned, they will always burn into broken incense."

"So that's how it is!" Lao Liu suddenly realized: "No wonder someone would be waiting at the intersection to burn incense. So, they were all people arranged by Zhu Zining!"

Liu Gang said, "Not all of them. Some of them want to come in on their own."
