Chapter 100: Heart-to-Heart Talk

When the dragon catcher was in Chenggu County, he inherited Wang Chuan's favor, and mastered the detailed information of the girl She Wei of the Yizi Gate, and now he is embarrassed to use Wang Chuan more, and he took notes, but also snatched the pen and paper from Wang Chuan's hand and did it himself.

Only the head of the dragon was seated, and the content of the interrogation was recorded. The other two head catchers stood on the left and right sides of the Taoist priest, each with their hands folded, and their unkind gaze could be clearly felt in the dim light.

Wang Chuan stood behind the head of the dragon and secretly observed, the fugitive Taoist priest had already been stripped of his robe, only a wide prison robe hung on his upper body, his trouser legs with holes were like tubes, squatting in the middle of the prison with his head hanging down, like a Tuxing grandson who suddenly discovered that his ability to drill holes had disappeared inexplicably, and he couldn't tell that he was once a Taoist priest.

"What's your name? Who? ”

The dragon catcher asked routinely.

The man was like a clay sculpture, crouching on the ground motionless.

The head catcher on the side kicked over directly, kicked the man to eat, and said coldly: "Speak, don't be a dead man for Lao Tzu." You're two days away from death. ”

"I'm going to die, why should I bother with saliva?"

The man got up from the ground, curled up and crouched there again, and said in a sullen voice. There was no life in his voice.

The head catcher who kicked people immediately rolled up his sleeves and was about to make a move, and said coldly: "Horizontal and vertical is just death, but before you die, Lao Tzu can let you taste what life is better than death." If you don't talk to me this time, I'll let you try it. Mr. Yang lifted the ban with one sentence, and gave too much cheapness to his colleagues, and the head of the arrester couldn't wait to ask for results, and he was very impatient.

Wang Chuan hurriedly grabbed him and said in a low voice: "The head of the right to catch is a little safe, let the subordinates try it." "Although Mr. Yang ordered everyone to be executed, but under the emperor's ban, in case of violation, Mr. Yang will be held responsible, and those who participated in it will not end well. Now he and the three head catchers are asking this fake Taoist priest, even if he doesn't do it, if someone else does it, he is also an accomplice, and when the time comes, he will still be counted. Therefore, if there is another law, it is best not to let the power arrest the head and punish him.

Quan Zhutou glanced at Wang Chuan, a little distrustful. But he still chose to listen to this little catcher and let him try.

Wang Chuan sat down cross-legged in front of the man and asked, "Daoist, if you ask for beheading in two days, do you know who are the people who were beheaded with you?" Who was the executioner who cut off your head? ”

"With whom to ask and behead, by whom to cut off the head, how do I know? You six door dukes, why do you knowingly ask me and come to ask me? ”

The false Taoist priest lowered his head and spoke, already sullen, but there was obviously a trace of despair and anger in his tone. He regarded Wang Chuan's questioning as a special excuse to see his excitement.

Wang Chuan smiled and said, "You are wrong about this. In this case of yours and another case in Yicui Building, I only participated in part of it, and I didn't know much about most of it. So who was asked to behead and who wasn't, I really don't know. But I think you should be able to figure out who deserves to be asked the most and who shouldn't. As for the executioners, this matter will be decided on the spot, and no one can know now. However, I have a good relationship with a few executioners, so I can say hello to you and choose a better executioner when the time comes. ”

"Is there a difference?"

The fake Taoist priest still didn't raise his head.

"Of course, there's a big difference!"

Wang Chuan explained, "The skill of the executioner is related to the neatness of your decapitation. For example, there is an executioner living in the Xuanwu District of the capital city, and there is also an executioner in the south of the city. The executioner in the Xuanwu area has superb means and accurate skills, and the knife in his hand is clean and neat, and the head is separated with a knife to ensure that it is painless; As for the one in the south of the city, if you can make the decapitation into Ling Chi, that knife will be like using a saw instead of a knife, and your neck is not a neck, but an iron tree, and you will be cut by the saw for a long time. But to put it mildly, the executioner in Xuanwu District started too fast, and the common people didn't seem to be happy, usually everyone still prefers the one in the south of the city, if you want to experience the technology of the one in the south of the city, I can talk to him on your behalf, and let him personally execute you when the time comes. ”

"Humph! Hum! ”

The false Taoist priest lowered his head and sneered. Wang Chuan couldn't see his expression, but he could still hear a trace of fear from the sneer that trembled and paused slightly. Under the lowered head, the neck of the false Taoist priest shrank unnaturally.

"Doubt I'm capable?"

Wang Chuan smiled and said, "If it was the original, there were so many people to be beheaded, I would naturally not be able to help you operate." But now in the two cases, there are many people in the court who helped to speak and escaped. Now that you're the only ones who have no one to talk to, the executioner will be easier than originally planned, and I'll be able to help you operate from it, and it's absolutely no problem to fix an executioner, what do you think? ”

"Hmph...... Hum...... Scold! Hehe! ”

The fake Taoist priest trembled, his neck shrunk again, and the sound from his mouth became more and more unnatural.

"What, scared?"

Wang Chuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm just teasing you." If there were few people, the Ministry of Punishment would not necessarily call the executioner. After all, the executioner's skills are too poor, although the people love to watch it, but the criminal department feels ashamed. The executioner in the south of the city couldn't take the job for a few days, and he was ready to apply for a job to kill pigs. I'm afraid you can't invite him if you want to. When the time comes, I'll help you find an executioner with better skills, and if you can invite the one in the Xuanwu District, you can invite the one in the Xuanwu District, what do you think? The one in the Xuanwu District was originally prepared for our big guy in the court, but the big guy has a strong foundation, and he has escaped this section in a daze, and it is estimated that there will be fewer robbers, and I won't be able to help you talk to you at that time. ”

The fake Taoist priest raised his head suddenly, and his eyes glared at Wang Chuan, his eyes were bloodshot, and he couldn't tell what his eyes were. As soon as he and Wang Chuan met their eyes, he suddenly lowered his head, as if he didn't want people to look at his two eyes.

Wang Chuan narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and said, "Daoist, you can rest assured." As the six doors of the public, we are talking and saying that we want to help you, that is, we want to help you. But when you turn back on Huangquan Road, you don't just miss me. If you can enjoy the treatment of the executioner of the Xuanwu District, you can be regarded as inheriting a favor from the person in the court. He wants to avoid this punishment, and you still can't enjoy that clean knife technique. Instead, I'll inquire carefully about who that person in the court is. If you inquire about it, on the next year's death day, let him help you with a stick of incense. ”

The fake Taoist priest was silent for a long time, then suddenly sneered and said, "Don't joke about catching it." How will you know who I am? You don't have to be sloppy with me, you six doors have been investigating this case for so long, and the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites is wandering in vain, can you still find it? ”
