Chapter 42 Waiting for the Burden to Come with a Cold Eye
There will be something hateful about the wretched!
Even Lichen was a little speechless to this gang of beggars, the sperm is on the brain, and the lust (harmony) wants to smoke the heart to find death by himself, who is to blame?
If it weren't for the "Liangzi" of this Mizhi County master, he wouldn't have bothered to care about the life and death of those guys on the execution ground!
"Now that the mastermind is known, why didn't the county magistrate order the demon to be arrested? It's good to get up the stolen goods and return them to their original owners! Someone next door apparently asked. The pen and the fun www.biquge.info obviously care about the whereabouts of that large sum of silver!
"I know this, I know!" Someone next door was talking again. He replied eagerly: "It seems that the main culprit has been forced to ask, and he is still in the same place." It seems to be a mountain temple not far from the city. And there are still fearless people who did not leave. However, the catchers went to catch it, but they came back with pale faces with fright, and they didn't catch it at all! “
"Why is that?" This time, a lot of voices came out together.
"This, I don't know about this. There was no news at all in the county office, but a few adults heard the news and couldn't sleep all night. The wife of the county magistrate also lost her temper in the backyard yesterday and killed a servant girl who was only a teenager. It's a shame that he looks pretty good! The guy next door sighed.
"It is estimated that the demon man knows the demon law, where can I hold this ordinary catcher! You have to go to the famous mountain to invite a monk or a mage with Taoism to come and break the demon's magic to do it! Someone in the crowd sighed.
At that moment, the second drum sounded. Tong! Tong! Tong! The ground knocked on the dust, and my heart trembled.
It's a cannibalistic world, and Dusty has always known it. But I heard with my own ears that another innocent little girl flew into trouble for no reason and died unjustly and tragically. Lichen's heart couldn't help but feel cold.
Especially the death of this little girl, it seems that it has something to do with herself.
On the execution ground, the Mizhi County Master looked good and upright, but he couldn't tell that he was such a guy.
Maybe in his heart, there has always been only a scholar, and even those who have to be famous can be counted as people! Ordinary people and family members, like cats and dogs, where can a human life be counted?
"If you don't ruin your family, who will die!" Lichen sighed softly, drew a boxy square with tea on the tea table, and after writing the words "Mizhi County Governance" in it, he took out more than a dozen copper coins and put them on the table.
After a near-silent incantation, Dusty placed his finger on the first copper coin. The copper coin suddenly emitted a faint light, and it trembled slightly on the table. It seemed that it took a lot of effort to move the copper coin, and moved the first copper coin straight to the side of Mizhi County. And then the second, and then the third...
After the more than a dozen copper coins were moved one by one, Chen's forehead was already slightly sweaty.
And at this moment, on the edge of the city wall of Mizhi County, more than a dozen Jinyi guards, even the high-headed horses with whom they were sitting, were already dizzy and couldn't figure out the east, west, north and south. When he saw the city gate of Mizhi County, he was even more frightened, his mouth opened wide, and he couldn't say anything.
Obviously, he has just stepped into the boundary of Mizhi County, why did he suddenly feel dizzy and arrive outside Mizhi County?
"Jin Yiwei! Why don't you come to the court to save people? Just when the Jinyi guards were in shock, a shout suddenly came from the sky, which scared these Jinyi guards. The Jinyi Wei Baihu at the head asked left and right with a little pale face: "Did you hear someone call us just now?" “
Left and right immediately nodded and said, "No, it's the words of the national teacher!" It seems that only the national teacher has such an immortal method, and he transported us directly here! “
When Jinyi Wei Baihu heard this, his face immediately turned solemn, his face was not white, and his legs and feet were no longer trembling. Immediately shouted with full anger: "Children, follow me into the city to save people!" After saying that, he immediately led his men to the city gate in high spirits.
On the Dharma field, the sound of the three-way drum has already sounded. It was three o'clock and ten o'clock in the afternoon. The county magistrate sat on the high platform on the sidelines. With a righteous face, he meticulously dropped the order in the sign, and shouted loudly: "The time has come, execution!" “
The order was landed, and the beggars on the execution ground immediately understood that their lives had reached the last moment. Immediately collapsed to the ground, and all the feces and urine came out. He wanted to shout, but he was gently strangled by the executioner on the rope, and he immediately couldn't breathe, and his face was bruised.
Whatever you say about shouting grievances on the court of law, it's just a novelist, and the common people are just misspeaking! How can you have the opportunity to "cry out for injustice" on the execution ground? When all condemned prisoners are executed, the ropes that bind them are exquisite, as long as you pull them lightly, you will be allowed to strangle you back in one breath. Plainly "shouting injustice". Wouldn't it tarnish the name of the "Shangguan" and let the common people "misunderstand" the adults?
In the winter, the executioners who went out on a red errand were still naked, with a shiny ghost-headed knife in their muscles, and they murderously brought the beggars who were soft into a ball like a chicken to the guillotine.
On the guillotine, there have long been yamen servants who are chanting words while scattering paper money all over the ground to buy the souls and ghosts of the Quartet. The executioner picked up a bowl of soul-breaking wine, went to the prisoner and said, "Drink a bowl of wine on the road, and don't look back on the road to Huangquan." The villain is also sent by the emperor to send you on the road. There is a wrong, and there is a debtor. Don't complain about the sky, Mo Youren, be rich and noble in the next life! “
If you are bold, you may drink this last bowl of wine yourself, indicating that you accept the executioner's statement and will not pester the executioner. In this way, the executioner can successfully complete the errand. It will also be quicker to save the prisoner from suffering. If you don't know what to do, the executioner will be soft-hearted, and he will force the prisoner to drink the "severed head wine". If you have a hard heart, you will be scared half to death before the knife is taken. Since he can't coax you, it's the same if you are too scared to come to him.
This is an unwritten rule, and the customs are different and different from place to place. A few beggars wept and drank the "severed head wine". A few didn't drink, and the executioner didn't force it. I picked up the wine bowl by myself, and then sprayed a mouthful of wine on the big knife, the cold light was shining, and it was even more terrifying!
"Execution!" The official who was in charge of the beheading waved it with one hand, and the executioner raised his broadsword high and slashed at the beggars' necks with a heavy blow.
The crowd exclaimed, and many viewers immediately closed their eyes, saying that they "couldn't bear" to see this terrible scene, and occasionally a few brave guys, their eyes were as wide as copper bells, excitedly preparing to watch the scene where the blood soared high, the blood splattered five steps, and the head fell to the ground.
Above the teahouse, there were copper coins in his hands, and more than a dozen copper coins were neatly arranged, at the moment when the executioners cut them down. More than a dozen copper coins also disappeared from the table in an instant. (To be continued.) )
