Chapter 151: Tiger Chair

Chen's head clenched into a fist: "Just by the orders of the minister!" ”

Literature and Art: "I and the people who came to pick me up plan to meet at Yumen Pass, but these Tubo people are too unprofessional to fall into your way, so I have to trouble Brother Chen to interrogate their contact information and send me to Yumen Pass." ”

"Please rest assured, it is our duty to protect your safety! As for such trivial matters as interrogation, leave it to me! ”

After the two discussed, Chen Datou happily went to arrange the task. First, 51 unlucky eggs were trapped in the form of silkworm chrysalis with hemp rope, and then hung from the tree with their heads and feet to let them sway in the wind. Leather whips, candles, and tiger chairs are essential items, and there is no chili water, but ten cents a pound of salt melts a full tank; Waist knives, rolling back double knives, spleen knives, two-handed belt knives, back knives, nest knives, mandarin duck knives, stern knives, cutting knives, and wind knives swing a long way. The water tank and oil pot were also erected, and a weak flame was lit at the bottom and slowly heated. After all the means of interrogation were prepared, the next thing was to wait for the 51 "silkworm chrysalis" to slowly wake up.

Baozhitang is worthy of being the first pharmacy in the rivers and lakes, and as its highest-selling "one stick of incense" effect, it is a bargain! said that if you sleep for twelve hours, you will sleep for twelve hours, Wenyi and Chen's head waited for a day and a night, and Dada and the others slowly woke up. However, there are a few who have really slept in the past, after all, they have been hung upside down for a day and a night, and even these men who live on the plateau all year round are not so happy.

Chen's big head shouted at Dada, who was constantly struggling: "Don't struggle, look at the trouble, we are experts who have passed the fourth or sixth level in terms of bondage!" Now I ask you to answer, if you say half a lie, you will regret coming into the world! ”

Dada really went up, panting and shouting: "If you have a kind, you will kill Lao Tzu!" What kind of heroes are some of the indiscriminate means! If you have the ability to put Lao Tzu down, let's go head-to-head! ”

Chen's head was happy: "Come on, take this hero off and put him on the stool so that he can relax, and I will fight him alone in a while." ”

The eye-catching little minion stepped forward and quickly untied Dada from the tree, and lifted him to the tiger chair and bolted it firmly. The structure of the tiger bench is actually very simple, a wooden stake or wooden pillar is installed vertically at one end of the bench, and the angle between the wooden pillar and the bench is 90 degrees vertical. Bricks need to be placed under the victim's feet, so a few bricks will be placed at the other end of the bench in advance. Some of the so-called elaborate tiger chairs in the Qing Dynasty also came with leather covers, which were used to bind and fix the body and thighs, and the bricks under the feet were made of green bricks, as well as wooden sticks that specially clamped the knees and calves to exert heavy pressure.

In order to prevent the tortured person from resisting and struggling, the upper body must be firmly tied to the stake of the tiger chair, and the sitting posture of the body must be straight, otherwise the effect of the subsequent torture will be affected. Not only is the upper body tied to the stake, but the victim's hands must also be tied behind the stake, which makes the body form a forward posture, which means that the person who has not yet been tortured already feels very uncomfortable, which also makes the victim feel humiliated and helpless.

The victim's legs are put on a bench, the legs are stretched together and straight, and the thighs are tied and fixed on the bench with a rope or holster, the tighter the tie, the better the effect of the torture, and then the legs are tied separately with ropes, but the calves and feet are not fixed on the bench. After tying up, the torturer's feet are placed with bricks so that the legs are completely straightened and raised, and as the number of bricks under the feet increases, the legs will become more and more painful. Since the thighs were fixed to the bench, the force was exerted entirely on the knee joints, which caused great pain to the victims, and even some bones were broken on the spot. If one or two bricks can be endured and held on, then when the number of bricks under his feet increases to three, the tortured person is already sweating profusely and clenching his teeth. At this time, the torturer will deliberately stop and let the three bricks torture the person for a period of time, intimidating and inducing the victim to confess. If the victim does not comply, he is whipped, and if he remains indifferent, the victim's feet are lifted up to death, and with a scream, a fourth brick is inserted under his feet, which is basically the limit of the human body. At this point, many of the tortured people will faint, but they will soon be woken up by cold water.

The hands and feet are firmly bound by ropes, and no matter what kind of pain the victim suffers, he cannot escape, and even his legs cannot even struggle, because the struggle requires the movement of the joints, and when the tiger chair is on, the legs and knees are completely bound and fixed, and they are under heavy pressure, and they cannot move at all. The subjective assumption that the victim can relieve the pain by straightening the instep of the foot is untenable. If shackles, ropes, and bars deprive people of their freedom, then those who go to the tiger chair can be said to have deprived them of even the right to struggle.

Dada is the best example of this, and by the time he reached the third brick, his eyes were already in pain, and the cold sweat on his head was pouring down. At this time, Chen asked with a big head, "Who are you?" ”

Dada glared at him hatefully, gritted his teeth and didn't speak. Chen's head suddenly felt dull, and he picked up the whip stained with salt water and whipped it randomly. Dada was beaten to the flesh, but how could Dada, as the first warrior of Tibet, give in easily? Chen's head twitched for a long time, and Dada was stunned and didn't jump out of a note.

Chen put down his whip in his head, relaxed his overexerted right hand, and motioned for Dada to add another brick. The effect of the fourth brick was very remarkable, and as soon as Dada was put on it, he was already screaming in pain. Chen's head nodded with satisfaction and asked again, "Who are you?" ”

Dada replied bitterly: "I am the Tibetan court general Gardada. ”

Wenyi was surprised: "Are you still a relative of Lu Dongzan?" ”

Dada nodded in pain, then wailed a few more times. Seeing that Dada began to cooperate, Chen took off a brick from Dada's feet as a reward. After Dada slowed down a little, Chen then asked, "Why are you arresting Wenxiang?" ”

Dada enjoyed the rare ease and began to resist without silence again, and after a disdainful "snort", he coolly twisted his head to the side.

Chen's head was furious, "Eh! You're such a, come on, put the bricks on him again! ”

When Dada was tormented by the fourth brick and shouted in pain, Wenyi interjected and said: "Brother Chen, I heard that this person is the first warrior in Tibet, and these small methods are a little insufficient for him, so it is better to start with others first." There are more than 40 people here, and I don't believe that they are all as hard as him. ”

Chen's head thought so, and asked people to take a few more from the tree, and first have a meal of fried meat with leather whip to appetize. These little brothers didn't even survive a single round, and they explained their ancestors to the eighteen generations clearly, except when asked about their plans, they all shook their heads and said that they didn't know. Sure enough, it's a cannon fodder character, not to mention the guts, it's useless at all!

After asking more than a dozen people in a row, they didn't know anything about the plan, and they were bored with literature and art, so they told Chen to interrogate him well and then went back to sleep in the village by himself.

Chen's big head stared at the bull's eye and tossed it all night, and finally got the hard bone of Dada in the "Please Enter the Urn" link. According to Dada's confession, this time the capture of literature and art is to test the strength of Datang, if Datang did not block them before they left the customs, then Lu Dongzan would lead an army of 100,000 to attack Datang in the south! And they didn't have any answer code, because when they arrived at Yumen Pass, it was when Lu Dongzan led his troops south, and the route told to literature and art before was originally used to promote literature and art.

At dawn, Chen told Dada's confession to Literature and Art as it was. Wenyi, who had just woken up, touched his chin and sneered: "It's a little interesting." Brother Chen, you go and rest quickly, let's leave in the afternoon. ”

Chen's head surrendered, and then asked, "Wen Xiang, how should Dada and the others deal with it?" ”

Wenyi said compassionately: "Our Datang is in a waste of time, especially lack of food and clothing, what should we do if we can't eat enough?" ”

Chen's head understood: "I understand." He clenched his fists again and walked out.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Wenyi and Chen set off on the road with more than 20 cottage minions, target: Yumen Pass!

With Chen's big head and the escort of the bandits, Wenyi was no longer lonely, and he and everyone bragged and sang songs all the way to Gyeongju. Of course, you have to live in the most luxurious inn with your own brothers, and the "Dragon Gate Inn" in Gyeongju is the first choice, and a stack of brand-new banknotes is slapped in front of the shopkeeper: "Hurry up and prepare twenty rooms for us!" ”

The chubby shopkeeper picked up the banknote and looked at it carefully for a while before handing it to Wenyi: "This guest officer, we only accept copper coins and silver." Your paper patterns and patterns are good, but they can't be used as store assets. ”

Literature and art touched their noses awkwardly, numb, and forgot that the paper money has not been promoted throughout the country! Chen took a step forward, pointed at the shopkeeper and said angrily: "The uninformed Tu Lao Hat has taken a closer look!" This is His Majesty's latest banknote! One piece is ten taels of silver, why can't it be used? ”

Wenyi stopped Chen's head and smiled: "Brother Chen is angry, I forgot that the banknotes are only being tried in Chang'an now, and they have not been promoted throughout the country, so it is normal for this shopkeeper not to accept them." This, I'm too anxious to bring silver when I go out, why don't you put it on first? ”

Chen took out a few taels of silver from his arms and slapped them on the table and said, "This is three taels of silver, quickly open an upper room for us, and then clean up two lower rooms and come out." ”

Wen Yi looked at the painful appearance of Chen's head and knew that this might be his only belongings, after all, it is difficult to do anything in this world, and although the life of the bandits has improved, they can only eat enough. At that moment, he took off a piece of jade pendant from his waist and put it on the table and said, "Shopkeeper, do you think my jade pendant may be worth ten upper rooms?" ”
