Mr. Si Meng paused, noticing that Mo Jiuye was taking a long time to respond, which made him even more satisfied.
It was evident that he had hit the mark; Mo Qing must be on the verge of collapse.
"Let me tell you, apart from me, no one in this world can remove the Gu worms in his body. Although I couldn't bring you Mo brothers to hell with me, it's worth it to die knowing Mo Qing will accompany me..."
As he finished speaking, Mr. Si Meng closed his eyes and lay there motionless, preparing for his impending death.
Even with Mo Jiuye's normally steady temperament, it was hard for him to stay calm in this situation.
A prisoner who had persecuted their entire family was now displaying such an attitude at this moment.
"Do you want to die?" His voice was so cold that it sent shivers down one's spine.
Mr. Si Meng was no exception. He had been held captive by the Mo brothers for so long, and this was the first time he had heard Mo Jiuye's tone so icy.
He knew in his heart that his time was up.
Well, it was better than enduring the torment while alive. Although he hadn't achieved his wish, the thought of being able to reunite with his beloved soon made it acceptable.
Mo Jiuye did indeed harbor a murderous intent, but he couldn't let the old fox die too easily.
Suddenly, a gleaming dagger appeared in his hand, and then it went straight towards one of Mr. Si Meng's eyes.
With a swift motion, the dagger took out one of Mr. Si Meng's eyeballs.
"Since you don't want to open your eyes, there's no use keeping this eye."
When the eyeball was forcefully removed, even though Mr. Si Meng had mentally prepared himself, he couldn't bear this sudden intense pain.
Where did he find the strength? The sound of his howling echoed through the air, causing birds perched on the trees to scatter.
Second Brother and Fifth Elder Brother, who had just fed their father some water, heard something amiss outside and came out of the carriage.
"Ninth Brother, what's happening..."
Before Fifth Elder Brother could finish his sentence, he saw the dagger in Ninth Brother's hand still dripping with blood, with what appeared to be an eyeball hanging from it.
Second Brother and Fifth Elder Brother immediately understood. Ninth Brother was planning to torture the old fox to death.
When it came to tormenting the biggest enemy of the family, Second Brother and Fifth Elder Brother were more than willing. Why should Ninth Brother be the only one to do such a thing?
Fifth Elder Brother also took out a gleaming dagger, and he approached Mr. Si Meng before Second Brother.
With the same swift motion as Mo Jiuye, he plucked out the other eye of the old fox.
Mr. Si Meng had momentarily shown signs of fainting, but when Mo Zhongyuan's blade descended, he regained consciousness once again.
Although his howls continued, they were far less intense than before.
Seeing this, Second Brother stepped forward and took the dagger from Mo Jiuye's hand. He casually scraped it against Mr. Si Meng's body, causing the eyeball hanging from the dagger to roll to the ground.
Then, he swiftly used the dagger to sever all ten of Mr. Si Meng's fingers.
"This is what you owe our Mo family. Just a few fingers can never make up for it."
As he spoke, he began to cut the flesh and skin from Mr. Si Meng's body, one cut at a time.
This could be described as the cruelest punishment of the Great Shun Dynasty, a thousand cuts and ten thousand slashes!
Fifth Elder Brother, seeing the situation, didn't stay idle either. He watched as Mr. Si Meng couldn't bear the pain and even fell into a state of unconsciousness.
How does one suffer when being executed without any perception?
He firmly refused to allow such a situation to occur.
Therefore, Fifth Elder Brother fetched a jug of cold water. Once Mr. Si Meng was about to faint, he would promptly wake him up by splashing water on him.
Second Brother was also very skillful with the knife. He knew where it would cause bleeding, which would lead to a quicker death. Thus, he specifically aimed for places with thick flesh and less bleeding when making incisions.
In order not to delay their journey to Xiling Village, Second Brother deliberately increased his speed.
Although doing so would accelerate the death of Mr. Si Meng, an old cunning fox, there was no other way. After all, their father's life was more important.
Mo Jiuye saw the seamless cooperation between Second Brother and Fifth Elder Brother and realized that he couldn't intervene, so he simply stood aside and watched.
At the same time, he gritted his teeth and said, "You assist the tyrant and persecute my entire Mo family. It's just desserts that you should die. Do you want to die?
But I won't let you die so easily. I want to make you suffer."
Speaking of suffering, Mo Jiuye suddenly remembered that his wife had brought him a packet of itch powder that he hadn't used yet.
He could let the old man experience the painful and itchy sensation once again.
So, he took out the remaining packet of itch powder and mercilessly sprinkled it all over Mr. Si Meng's body.
Mr. Si Meng instantly became both crying and laughing, a sight that brought a sense of relief.
To prevent the old fox from dying too easily, Second Brother and Fifth Elder Brother tormented him for a while before stopping.
They didn't know whether they should bring Mr. Si Meng along on their journey.
"Ninth Brother, should we take him with us?" Fifth Elder Brother asked.
Mo Jiuye shook his head. "It's inconvenient to bring him on the road."
Fifth Elder Brother immediately understood Mo Jiuye's meaning and, after exchanging a glance with Second Brother, continued to torture Mr. Si Meng.
Perhaps due to Mr. Si Meng's weak physical condition, he was soon tortured to the point of breathing in more air than he could exhale.
Mo Jiuye knew that the old fox was about to breathe his last breath and quickly reminded them, "Second Brother, Fifth Elder Brother, cut off his hands, feet, and head. Such a wicked person mustn't be left with a complete corpse."
Second Brother wiped the blood off his face and unwillingly said, "Hmph! Letting him die so quickly is too kind to him."
After speaking, the two brothers continued their actions, dismembering the old fox's body and tossing the pieces into the bushes at the side of the road.
Eldest Brother had been staying inside the carriage, taking care of their father. However, he could still hear the commotion outside.
He knew that at this moment, the archenemy who had secretly persecuted the Mo family for years had finally died!
He gently held down his father's arm, which remained in the same position, and whispered, "Father, can you hear it? The mastermind who persecuted our Mo family is now dead. You must hold on. Mother is still waiting for your return to reunite with her."
The brothers outside the carriage quickly tidied up and hurriedly left with the carriage.
This time, Fifth Elder Brother took the reins, while Mo Jiuye and Second Brother rode horses together. Eldest Brother stayed in the carriage to take care of their father.
When they arrived at the gate of Xijing City, the timing was just right.
Mo Jiuye watched as the city gates were opened by two soldiers, and the bustling crowd of people began to enter and exit.
Although there was still a checkpoint at the city gate, Mo Jiuye handed some silver to the gatekeeper soldiers again for convenience, and the carriage passed smoothly.
The weather today wasn't very good, rather gloomy.
Perhaps because the common people were worried about getting caught in the rain while traveling, there weren't many pedestrians on the official road.
The galloping horses covered a distance of about ten miles when a very familiar-looking carriage approached from the opposite direction.
Mo Jiuye took a closer look and found that the carriage and the interior crafted by his wife were almost identical.
Due to the distance, even with Mo Jiuye's sharp eyes, he couldn't clearly see the appearance of the driver, especially since the person was wearing a large straw hat that covered the entire face.
Mr. Si Meng paused, noticing that Mo Jiuye was taking a long time to respond, which made him even more satisfied.
It was evident that he had hit the mark; Mo Qing must be on the verge of collapse.
