Chapter 67: The Consideration of the Peoples
Chapter 67
(Thursday, March 21, Last Anpooch)
The most prosperous street market in Loulan City, Black Street, at the end of this black street is an empty high platform, but this high platform is not a place for performances, singing and dancing, but the only execution place in Loulan City!
Just after midnight, before dawn had yet to recover, our beloved Lord of the City, Lord Kester, had already taken a dozen guards of five big and three thick, standing proudly on this high platform, and let the guards put up four blood-soaked people on the high platform, it was Emily, Blank, Jack, and Edward!
Most of the kind and ignorant citizens crawled out of the warm bedding after hearing that the prisoners were going to be executed in their sleep, and rushed out of their homes with a small basket of stones in the corner of the wall and rushed to the execution ground.
This is a kind of elegant entertainment, so that everyone can punish the prisoner, let the prisoner repent under the "accusation" of the people, and then change his mind in hell and be a good person again in the next life!
Mai Trin released the big cat and created a linen cloak to wrap her whole body, and mixed in with the crowd and rushed to the execution ground.
“…… These humble and bold untouchables have dared to instigate and deceive the Magician to murder my dear daughter and our beloved Second Prince, and now that they have confessed all under my torture, what punishment should we punish for such a vicious person? "Kester stood on the execution table at the earl, and spoke with great grief and indignation, like a messenger of justice. However, although it is said that it is a punishment, the real punishment is actually in everyone's heart.
"It should be punished with the 'understanding of all peoples.'"
"Yes, with the understanding of all the people!"
……
The people in the audience excitedly shouted "the understanding of all the people", and Mai Trin was puzzled, but it didn't matter what punishment was imposed, because the four people on the stage had already died. A sad feeling welled up in my heart, why did it become like this?
Why is Lillian such a girl?
Why did someone as kind as Emily die?
Why is Kester so calm now?
Could it be that when I first came, what I saw was all an illusion? Lillian's cuteness, is it all fake that Cathert and the mercenaries, especially Edward, are they all fake? Mai Trin didn't know, and she didn't want to know, because she couldn't find the answer at all, and it felt like these things were just entertainment for Lillian, Kesert, and Charlie (Pete)? Why entertain people with their lives and suffering?
Mai Trin couldn't think of an answer, she couldn't understand their thoughts, just as she couldn't understand this era.
……
The so-called "understanding of all peoples" began.
The civilians who had already prepared in the audience threw the stones that had already been pinched in their hands at the moment when Kesselt said "the execution begins", with an excited look on their faces! This is the first execution in a long time!
The stone was like a rain of rain that fell on the four people who had already stopped breathing, making the already broken bodies of the four even more dilapidated!
"Why don't you throw it away?" A very kind old woman asked strangely when she saw that Mai Trin didn't throw stones.
Mai Trin didn't know how to answer, why she was throwing stones.
Seeing that Mai Trin didn't answer, the old grandmother glanced at Mai Trina's all, and a look of understanding appeared on her face, "I know, you must have no stones!" There are many more to me, and a few of you will share them! ”
The ghost sent the gods, Mai Qin took the stone, and asked with a glimmer of hope, "Those people above are good people, I know them!" ”
"Girl!" When the kind old woman heard Mai Trin say this, her face suddenly became very stern, "Seeing that you are not very old, how can you talk nonsense?" Knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, people who are tied to the stage must be bad people, don't be deceived by appearance! ”
Mai Trin wanted to laugh a little, but she couldn't laugh, she knew her face but didn't know her heart, this sentence was true, but Mai Trin just felt that it was shitting!
"Besides, even if the people on the stage are wronged, this punishment will allow them to receive our blessings when they ascend to heaven!"
"Flutter!" When Mai Trin heard the old woman say this, she couldn't help but laugh, "Hahahahaha! ”
Good holy and immaculate "understanding of all nations", bad people will be punished by all when they go to hell, and good people will be blessed by all when they enter heaven! What a fair execution, impeccable!
Mai Tamin suddenly felt that there was a disgusting smell here, polluting the air.
Mai Trin's laughter was easily suppressed by the cheers of the others present, and only the other people around looked at Mai Tamin strangely, thinking that Mai Tamin was laughing happily because the murderer had received retribution.
It's so heavy, it's so disgusting, I just don't want to stay for a second longer, Mai Trito laughed and squeezed out of the crowd, a trace of hideousness suddenly appeared on her face, she turned around and smashed a stone on the high platform, and then walked out of this city that she hated very much without looking back!
……
Ha ha! He executed the murderer, and the prince's body was also collected and sent to the royal capital, so even if His Majesty investigates it, he will not be implicated! You might even get rewarded for it! Fortunately, he was witty at the time, did not run far, and hid in the dark to peep, otherwise His Majesty would definitely die if he was investigated later.
Thinking like this, Kester, who was standing on the edge of the execution table, couldn't help but smash his mouth, the only pity was that his captive wife was killed by the magician, and she was just four years away from tasting her taste, what a pity, alas~! Forget it, if you can't beat it, just adopt another one! (How could Kester's genes give birth to Lilian's daughter)
Kester's thoughts stopped at this point, and with a piercing sound of breaking the air, Kester's head burst open like a broken watermelon, and his brain was mixed with blood and spilled on the ground, and the headless corpse fell to the ground weakly, causing everyone present to scream!
"The Earl has been stoned to death!"
"Find the murderer!"
"The murderer must be among us!"
"We must not let our beloved Lord Earl die for no reason!"
……
……
Outside Loulan City, Meiqin lay on the back of the big cat and slowly advanced towards the Demon King Leader.
Rubbing her temples a little tiredly, a question suddenly appeared in Mai Trin's mind that even she thought was ridiculous: What is wrong with this world?
At this time, the big cat didn't know what Mikoto was thinking, but simply felt that this powerful human was in a very low mood at this time. At the same time, I feel stuffed with my own stupidity, it turns out that the two slaps on my ass when I just entered the city were not to let myself wait there but to let myself go, alas, if I were as smart as a cat, I wouldn't have made such a mistake!
The sun finally showed a glimmer of light in the endless night, and the morning dawn came, and the cold air blew the man and bear in the desert for a long time.
Why...... I didn't do anything wrong, but I felt that my white and slender hands were already stained with blood?
