Chapter 1849: Execute Ling Junhai
The executioners of the Ling family are hereditary, that is to say, since ancient times, the executioners of the Ling family have been passed down from generation to generation.
This executioner is responsible for punishing his people, and at the same time he is a very strange existence.
It is said that the executioners of the Ling clan are all Taoists!
It's just that unless the clansmen are punished, the executioner is not bound and appointed by anyone, not even the head of the family!
Therefore, the executioner of the Ling clan has always been a very mysterious and terrifying existence!
If someone from the Ling clan tries to escape punishment, then the executioner will arrest the person and accept the punishment!
In fact, the Ling family is not the only family with a torture hall, many ancient families have a torture hall, and there are also executioners.
Now that Ling Junhai took the initiative to ask to go to the torture hall, he had already accepted his fate and died.
Seeing him say this, Ling Yuxuan nodded, then took out a piece of paper and read out Ling Junhai's guilt in public.
Plotting to murder his brother and secretly transferring and embezzling family assets, these two major crimes are enough to condemn Ling Junhai to death!
After Ling Yuxuan finished reading it out in public, he said to everyone: "The torture hall is very small, so we can only go to six or seven people at most, and the others should wait here, and when the execution is over, I will come back to inform everyone." ”
The clansmen nodded when they heard this.
Then, Ling Yuxuan and Zhao Yang walked in the front, and at the same time motioned for the two clansmen to take Ling Junhai to follow behind.
According to the rules, the clan elder sitting in the first row can go to the execution hall first, and at the same time, the son of the dead clan elder also carried his deceased father on his back.
He must take his deceased father to witness Ling Junhai's death.
The older people are, the more they care about the rules, because this is something they have followed all their lives, and the family rules have long been ingrained in their hearts.
The torture hall was located in the corner of the Ling family's mansion, and when he walked into the door, Zhao Yang found that there was nothing in this house!
At the end of the room is an incense case, and a portrait hangs on the wall behind it!
The figure looked like a very luxurious woman, and at the same time, Ling Yuxuan leaned into Zhao Yang's ear and whispered, "This is the Queen Mother of the West, the god in charge of punishment and calamity. ”
"Isn't the Queen Mother of the West the Queen Mother?" Zhao Yang asked strangely.
"Yes, but in ancient times, the Queen Mother of the West was indeed in charge of punishment and calamity. Ling Yuxuan said.
"So that's ......" Zhao Yang nodded, knowing that he was too deeply affected by Journey to the West or something.
It turns out that this Queen Mother of the West is actually in charge of punishment!
Zhao Yang looked around and saw that there was nothing in this room, and he couldn't help but feel very strange.
"Did I say your torture hall is this empty place?" Zhao Yang asked.
"Of course not. After speaking, Ling Yuxuan pointed to the middle of the room.
The house was paved with stone slabs, and there was a strange pattern on the stone slab in the middle of the room.
Then, Ling Yuxuan said, "I'll go down from here in a while." ”
"It turns out that the torture hall is in the basement!" Zhao Yang suddenly realized!
"Hmm. ”
Then, Ling Yuxuan walked to the incense case and motioned to the clansmen who had already come to the side of the incense case to hand her three sticks of incense.
Ling Yuxuan knelt on the futon to pay respectful respects, and recited words in her mouth.
When she stood up, she put three sticks of incense on the incense table.
Strange to say, when she put the incense on the incense table, the stone slab in the center of the room moved!
Rumble –
The stone slab with the strange pattern gradually folded away, which made the original place appear a black entrance!
Zhao Yang came to the entrance and saw that it was a series of steps leading straight to the bottom!
At this time, Ling Yuxuan said to Zhao Yang: "This is the torture hall of our Ling clan. ”
"Can I go down?" Zhao Yang asked.
"You still wait for me above, it is not in accordance with the clan rules to let outsiders go down, although we have a close relationship, it is not a family relationship, do you understand what I mean?" Ling Yuxuan asked tentatively.
"Understood. Zhao Yang nodded and said, "Then you go down, I'll wait on it." ”
"Hmm. Ling Yuxuan nodded, and then took the lead and walked down alone.
Immediately afterwards, Ling Junhai was taken down by two clansmen, then the middle-aged clansman who carried the corpse of his deceased father, and then a group of clan elders.
There were ten people in the group, and after they went through, the slate closed slowly and automatically!
This mechanism is not common now, except here, Zhao Yang has only seen it once in the cave.
A few members of the Ling clan stayed outside with Zhao Yang, and Zhao Yang was idle and bored, so he left the house and came outside.
In fact, he was very curious about what this executioner in charge of the Ling clan's punishment looked like, but as an outsider, he was not qualified to enter the torture hall.
It is estimated that the executioner is not a three-headed and six-armed person, at best, he is just a Taoist, and he has nothing to see.
Half an hour later, the underground stone door in the room opened again, and Ling Yuxuan was the first to walk up.
Zhao Yang's ears and eyes are sensitive, and when the stone door opens, Zhao Yang blows into the house from the outside like a gust of wind.
When Ling Yuxuan came out, the first thing he saw was him.
Zhao Yang suddenly realized that Ling Yuxuan walked up from below as if he had lost his soul.
Then, Ling Yuxuan walked up to Zhao Yang with a blank expression and threw herself into his arms.
Needless to say, Ling Yuxuan must have witnessed his second uncle being executed by the clan rules!
After Ling Yuxuan, there was the middle-aged man who carried his deceased father on his back, and then a group of clan elders and clansmen walked out.
"What about Ling Junhai's corpse, what happened to it?" When the stone door was closed, Zhao Yang didn't see Ling Junhai's corpse.
"The second uncle's body was disposed of by the executioner. Ling Yuxuan said in a trance.
"That means Ling Junhai can't be buried with his wife?" Zhao Yang asked.
"Yes. Ling Yuxuan nodded and said, "It is impossible for a person who has been executed by the clan rules to be buried with his wife's corpse, which may be one of the reasons why the second uncle wanted to commit suicide before." ”
"If he succeeds in committing suicide, he will not be punished by the clan rules, and he can be dragged to the crematorium with his wife to practice. Zhao Yang said.
"That's right. Ling Yuxuan nodded slightly and said.
"Well, it's time for us to get back to the council chamber and tell you the news. Zhao Yang said.
"Hmm. Ling Yuxuan nodded.
At this time, she was extremely mentally exhausted, but she still had to support her body and go to the council hall to answer all the clansmen.
After all, she is the head of the Ling family, and some things are not governed by her will.
Back in the conference hall, Ling Yuxuan found that almost everyone had not left.
The originally noisy conference hall became quiet because of Ling Yuxuan's appearance.
Everyone was looking at Ling Yuxuan, waiting for Ling Yuxuan to announce the result—although everyone had roughly guessed the result as soon as they saw her appear.
"Now let me inform you that the clansman of our Ling clan, Ling Junhai, the former acting head of the family, has been executed by the clan rules in the torture hall. ”
After speaking, Ling Yuxuan left his clan and left the meeting hall.
