Zhou Dayong's face was expressionless, "After being under the 'Silkworm Zombie Curse' for a long time, you'll become a puppet. Those who can still move will guard the ancestral hall, and those completely unable to move will cocoon here."
"The cocoons that form will be devoured by the Divine Silkworms, and once they're empty, they're boiled to reel the thread, producing the so-called Divine Silkworm Silk..."
"It's simply ... atrocious!" Kong Shangzhao's voice trembled.
Following Li Yan and others, he had seen many things, from the 'Flat Peach' cultivated using children in the Capital, to the Divine Silkworms fed with human lives here, all of which utterly shattered his worldview.
Zhou Dayong's eyes dimmed, "The villagers were left with no way out, unable to pay the tax silver, the court would come to collect, exposing the secret here. Moreover, those under the Silkworm Zombie Curse must offer sacrifices regularly and feed the Divine Silkworms for others to live a bit longer."
