Stone Fort
The Wans was once the landowner of the Liuli Pool. At that time, the suzerain, Wan Zongjue and his brother Wan Zongqing, built a stone fort and trained many soldiers. They claimed that they would protect villagers around the fort from being attacked. In return, villagers need to hand in a lot of food to pay back. If someone did not pay enough food on time, everything in his home would be taken away, even his wife and children.
Villagers live near the stone fort cannot suffer such oppression. They came together and wielded their scythes and hoes, tried to fight against the soldiers in the stone fort. However, soldiers are much more powerful; they started the most horrible massacre to those poor villagers. Moreover, Wan Zongjue was so cruel that he ordered his soldiers to hang these poor villagers' corpses on the door of fort.
Families of these died people were deeply grieved. It is awful for them to see their relatives' body experienced wind and rain. Some of them left the village and some got mad. One of those entered the stone fort again. Before he leaves, he told others that he would take himself as a curse...
