Chapter 2: The Guillotine

"Hell?" Xiao Ye said strangely.

The strong man's face was full of despair, and he smiled, "Our life may end here." ”

Xiao Ye looked at this strange strong man, and then looked around, he was actually in a carriage!

The carriage was surrounded by a tight iron cage, and he was handcuffed with solid iron handcuffs, and he was in the driver's position as a man wearing the armor of an ancient soldier, and he was like a prisoner!

"No, I'm not in a pit, am I going to heaven?" Xiao Ye is now full of questions, he was originally going to wait for death in the pit, but when he woke up, it seemed that everything had changed, and he had become a prisoner!

The strong man looked at Xiao Ye and said strangely: "Little brother, you have been fooled by these imperial troops, your hair has been shaved off..."

"What!"

Xiao Ye's face changed greatly, and then he hurriedly reached out and touched his hair, you must know that the head can be broken, the blood can flow, and the hairstyle cannot be lost.

modeled his own head, and the familiar hair was still there, which made Xiao Ye breathe a sigh of relief.

The strong man looked at Xiao Ye's strange behavior from the side, just shook his head, and sighed: "This hateful empire has driven a soldier of our revolutionary army crazy. ”

"What revolutionary army? What are you talking about? I fell into the pothole, who is driving the carriage in front of me? What's the matter with these handcuffs? Why am I here?"

"Aren't you a person with the Black Flag?" the strong man looked at Xiao Ye's emaciated physique, looked at it carefully, and said with a wry smile: "It seems that I misunderstood, bitter friend, we are heading to the execution ground in Phoenix City." ”

"Phoenix City Execution Ground?" Xiao Ye sat up straight all of a sudden, and looked at the surrounding place where the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, unlike the blizzard weather in Inner Mongolia, "This... How did I become a prisoner?"

"This is the Empire, and the person in front of you is the Imperial Army. The strong man raised his handcuffed hands and pointed at the soldier driving the carriage, "As for how you became a prisoner, I don't know, this cart is full of revolutionary troops who rebelled against the empire, and we were defeated in the battle of the wind forest." Speaking of this, the strong man showed a sad expression again.

The Imperial Army, the Revolutionary Army, the Battle of the Wind Forest, Xiao Ye now understands that he is definitely not in Inner Mongolia, and before he tries to think about it, he obviously followed the roar and fell into a hole, but in the blink of an eye, he became a prisoner of the revolutionary army!

Rubbing his cheeks covered with dirt, he looked at the surrounding environment, such a carriage is not only his own car, there are three or two cage carriages in front of this cage carriage, and his own one is the last one.

Looking at himself in the cage car, in addition to the big man talking to Xiao Ye, there was also a tall and thin man, the man was about 30 years old, and his long hair was a little dirty, his body had been trembling slightly, and his mouth seemed to be muttering something all the time, and his hesitation was too small, Xiao Ye couldn't hear it clearly, and he didn't want to care.

In addition to the tall and thin man, there was also a weak girl, the girl was about the same age as Xiao Ye, her long black hair was a little messy on her shoulders, and her face was a little dusty, even if it was a little dusty, but it looked pretty good on her face, and the girl curled up in the corner without saying a word, without the appearance of a soldier.

"She's also a revolutionary army?" Xiao Ye pointed to the girl who was curled up in the corner and asked Dahan.

"I'm not. The girl saw Xiao Ye pointing at herself, and before the strong man could answer, she made a faint sound.

The strong man was also a little strange and said, "So you are not a revolutionary army, how can you be in this cage carriage?"

"I know I'm still asking you! They say I fell into a hole, my eyes closed and I opened my eyes, and here I am, somehow I became a prisoner, are you sure you're not making a movie?"

The girl didn't answer, curled up in the corner and didn't move.

"Make a movie?" said the strong man.

Xiao Ye rolled his eyes, this is understood, he must not be from the same world as these people, he crossed before he died, and he also crossed into a prisoner, and he was about to face execution!

Thinking of this, Xiao Ye couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It's better to starve to death in the pit directly!"

"Hey, be quiet in the back!" Suddenly, the soldier-like man in front turned his head and yelled at Xiao Ye, his eyes were a little vicious.

Xiao Ye was excited, and immediately ran to the front, grabbed the iron railing with both hands and said: "Hey, big brother, I'm not a revolutionary army, you must have caught the wrong person, am I like a soldier like this?"

"Shut up!" The imperial army didn't listen to Xiao Ye's explanation, and immediately shouted, as if Xiao Ye would execute him immediately if he said another word, so frightened that Xiao Ye quickly shut up.

............

The cage carriage drove slowly, and the surrounding environment of birds and flowers did not look like he was going to the execution ground at all, but the reality was like this, Xiao Ye didn't know how many slaps he had slapped, and he was already sure that this was not a dream.

Even the strong man next to him was a little stunned when he saw Xiao Ye's appearance, and he didn't understand why this kid kept slapping himself.

"Alas!" Xiao Ye sighed, he had accepted the facts, he was still living a dull office worker life yesterday, but now he has become like this, he regrets it a little.

"I should have gone back to the dormitory yesterday with peace of mind, not the Internet café!"

Sitting on the iron cage, looking at himself dressed in sackcloth and holding heavy handcuffs on his hands, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

......

Gradually, a huge iron gate appeared in front of you, and when you look up, it is a huge city in ancient times, and this magnificent scene can't help but make people admire.

The strong man looked at the city and couldn't help but sigh: "The Phoenix City of this empire is worthy of being one of the best cities, and it is said that Phoenix City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but now I understand." ”

"Open the gates!" With the sound of trumpets and roars, the huge iron gate slowly opened.

"The executioner is ready!"

"Executioner?" Hearing this, Xiao Ye broke out in a cold sweat.

The strong man next to him seemed to have accepted all this and was silent.

The tall and thin man, stumbling, showed a panicked expression, and it seemed that he was not willing to accept death.

The girl was still curled up in the corner, not saying a word, her head buried so low that her face could not be seen.

Xiao Ye paid attention to this girl who was about the same age as herself, as if she heard a slight sob.

"She's crying?" Xiao Ye was a little stunned, but thinking that she was about to be beheaded, a girl of her age even wanted to cry, so it was strange that she didn't cry.

Entering the city, the bustling street comes into view, the brilliant sunlight sprinkles between the green tiles and red walls, the abrupt horizontal cornices, and the high fluttering shop signboard flags, all of which show the prosperity of this imperial Phoenix City.

The sparkling carriages and horses and the endless stream of pedestrians all made way for the cage carriage, and the surrounding citizens all looked at Xiao Ye's group of prisoners with strange eyes.

Xiao Ye was also a little surprised by the appearance of this Phoenix City, where had he seen such a magnificent scene in this world, even Tiananmen Square had only been seen in front of the computer, and the scene at this time, even Beijing, Shanghai in China, was inferior.

Staring at this huge ancient city, Xiao Ye couldn't help but exclaim: "If you take a photo and go home, it is estimated that no one will believe it..."

Before he could take a closer look, the cage carriage had already driven to the bottom of a high platform, where a group of soldiers in fiery red armor surrounded the high platform, and in the center stood a large man with a long-handled two-handed axe, which should be the so-called executioner.

Looking at this scene, Xiao Ye swallowed his saliva.

"Citizens of the Empire!" a large man who looked like an officer shouted from above, "These are the traitors who want to cause disaster to our country, and now we have captured them, for the sake of the peace of our Empire, we will execute them again!"

"Cut..."The strong man next to Xiao Ye listened to the officer's words, showing a face full of disdain.

And Xiao Ye was already trembling at this time, the so-called execution, it was a death sentence, he didn't die in the pit, and he actually had to be executed here, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

And the surrounding civilians who seemed to be dressed strangely in Xiao Ye's eyes were all talking.

"Count the prisoners!" exclaimed the officer.

"Yes, sir!"

The soldiers were ordered to count the prisoners from the wagons in front of them, and those whose names were counted walked to the high platform where the executioner was.

In a few moments, the prisoners in the cage carriages in front of them were already standing on the high platform, ready to be executed.

It was Xiao Ye's turn to be the last one, and a soldier opened the iron cage and said, "Those who have named them, go to the high platform!"

After getting out of the carriage in turn, the soldier picked up a list and read: "Qin Han." ”

As the soldier's voice fell, the strong man beside Xiao Ye stood up.

Looking at the big man named Qin Han next to him, Xiao Ye was slightly shocked in his heart, the height of the big man was more than half of Xiao Ye's body, and the muscles on his body were also piece by piece, it was simply a human-shaped hill.

The soldier nodded and said, "Go to the high platform." ”

Qin Han dragged the solid iron handcuffs to the high platform without saying a word.

"Luo Can. The soldier continued.

The tall and thin man stood up tremblingly, his face showing a look of horror, and his feet seemed to make him a little unsteady.

"Go to the high platform. The soldier looked at the man named Luo Can and said in a deep voice.

Luo Can walked to the high platform twice, then became a little excited, and hurriedly turned back to the soldiers and said: "I'm not the Black Flag Army! You caught the wrong person! I don't want to die, you can't do this!"

The soldier seemed impatient when he heard Luo Can's words: "Don't talk nonsense, stand on the high platform for me!"

"No! you can't do this! you can't do this!" Luo Can shouted excitedly, unwilling to listen to the soldiers honestly.

The soldier frowned slightly, put a foot directly on Luo Can's back, and yelled: "Be honest, get out of the high platform for me!"

"No, I don't want to die!" Luo Can yelled excitedly, immediately turned around and pushed Xiao Ye behind him at once, raised his leg and ran back.

"Ouch!"

Xiao Ye was pushed by Na Luo Can and sat directly on the ground.

The officer looked at Luo Can, who wanted to escape, and didn't make much movement, and the corners of his mouth grinned: "Want to run? archer!"

Hearing the officer's order, several archers took out their longbows, which had long been hanging on their backs.

Hearing only a few "huh!", several iron arrows passed directly through Luo Can's chest, and the scarlet blood instantly stained his chest.

With a "plop", Luo Can fell to the ground and was directly executed on the spot!

Looking at such a scene, Xiao Ye couldn't help but shudder, although he knew that he was going to be executed, but for Xiao Ye, who had never seen a murderer with his own eyes, his heart suddenly burst into nausea.

This good person was shot to death directly through the heart with an arrow, which made Xiao Ye can't help but start praying.

The soldier who read the list continued to pick up the list again, looked at Xiao Ye and another girl, looked at the list again, and asked, "What are the names of the two of you?"

"Ye Xinyi. The girl replied in a low voice, again with no expression.

Seeing the situation, Xiao Ye immediately said: "My name is Xiao Ye, and my name is not on the list, right? I will say that you must have caught the wrong one! I will be in your carriage as soon as I wake up, I don't know what is going on!"

The soldier hesitated.

The officer suddenly walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Sir, what should I do if I don't have the names of these two people on the list?" replied the soldier.

Xiao Ye has some expectations, can he not be executed?

Just when Xiao Ye was excited, the officer said without hesitation: "Go up and stand up, I'd rather kill the wrong one!"

"Damn! You can't be like this, kill without a name on the list?" Xiao Ye shouted.

"Shut up!" shouted the officer, "go up, the gods will bless you, or do you want to be executed on the spot, just like that man just now?"

"Hey, big brother, you believe in God, don't believe in Buddhism, and you can't kill innocents indiscriminately, there will be retribution in this way!"

"Hmph!" The officer snorted coldly, looked at Xiao Ye coldly and said, "What Buddha is not Buddha, we Imperial Army, we have our own beliefs!"

Xiao Ye still wanted to quibble, but the girl named Ye Xinyi next to him had already gone up without saying a word.

"Bullshit gods bless, everyone is dead, and bless a fart!" Xiao Ye scolded secretly, and could only obediently walk towards Xingtai.

When he came to Xingtai, it was a wooden platform, and the executioner with a giant axe in the center had a guillotine at his feet, and the executioner was about to move with a giant axe, as if killing people could bring him pleasure.

The crowd of onlookers was already gathered under the wooden platform, and there was a lot of noise discussing these prisoners below.

Xiao Ye saw the guillotine, and swallowed his saliva, "This is the rhythm of beheading, I have to die without a whole body in the end, it is better to be beheaded than to be shot by a bow and arrow, at least leave a whole corpse..."

"Now you kneel in front of the guillotine one by one!" the officer shouted at Xiao Ye and other prisoners, "You will be blessed by the gods if you reform your hearts." ”

"Is it useful to reform yourself, everyone is dead!" Xiao Ye muttered.

As soon as the officer finished speaking, one of the prisoners at the front knelt in front of the guillotine.

The boy shook his muscles, staggered, slowly raised the giant axe in his hand, and with a "poof" of the knife in his hand, the prisoner's head instantly left his body and landed in a wooden basket.

Blood stained the executioner's armor, and the executioner shook his body as if nothing had happened.

"Next!"

Looking at this group of people who kill people without blinking, I can't help but feel disgusted, at most in TV dramas and videos before, but these are two different things from what I really see, not to mention that I will become like this.
