What exactly was the "Stele of Seven Slaughters"?
In brief, it was a legend that had long been circulating amongst the folk of Sichuan. It was a rumor concerning Zhang Xianzhong, a military leader during the end of the Ming Dynasty. Allegedly, Zhang Xianzhong relished indiscriminate killing, even erecting a stele under the guise of divine decree, with the inscription "Heaven created all things for man, man has nothing for Heaven, but to slaughter slaughter slaughter slaughter slaughter slaughter slaughter". This was the renowned "Stele of Seven Slaughters".
Previously, it seemed that this artifact existed only in folklore.
However, now...
It seemed to have truly surfaced.
"What on earth is inscribed on this?"
"Why are there so many characters for 'slaughter'?"
"To tell you the truth, this inscription sends chills down my spine!"
