When "Ling Chi" was executed, the executioner first cut a piece of meat on the major muscle in front of the prisoner and threw it to the sky, which was called "sacrificing meat to the sky".

The second knife is called a "blindfold", in which the executioner cuts the flesh off the prisoner's head and pulls it down to cover his eyes. Prevent the prisoner and the executioner from looking at each other, and prevent the prisoner from radiating an unusually cold and frightened gaze when he is in extreme pain, which will make the executioner panic and affect the execution.

(That's a lot!) ）

There are historical records of people who were executed by "Ling Chi", such as Liu Jin, the great eunuch in the last years of the Ming Dynasty. "For example, 3357 knives, first 10 knives, a break and a drink. On the first day, 357 knives were cut, such as large nail pieces, and the incision was made on the chest, which lasted for a total of 3 days.

Before the Tang Dynasty, the heaviest punishment was "beheading", and it was only in the Five Dynasties that the "Ling Chi" clause was added to the Criminal Law.

When the people take revenge on their enemies, they also imitate Ling Chi, who is an official punishment, to cut people to death. There is also such a plot in "Water Travel", and Li Kui cut Huang Wenbing in the forty-first episode, which is the case.

If the emperor ordered 3600 knives, the executioner had strict rules, one knife could not be more, one could not be less, and the 3600th knife could not be killed. It is definitely a technical job, and there is only one such talent, and Zhu Zilong's subordinates do not have it.

Therefore, only the hundredth knife was cut, Ma Xiaosan's hand shook, and Yang Guoguang was already hanging.

(If you live in Zhu Yuanzhang's era, it is estimated that there are definitely many people who know this craft, after all, Lao Zhu likes this type of punishment the most.) It's like doing this to officials, it's hell for civil servants, Khan! ）

Folk women often scold people and say, "You dog official who has been stabbed a thousand times", which is justified.

Yuan Chonghuan, a well-known general during the Chongzhen period, was executed by Ling Chi because Emperor Chongzhen suspected his rebellion and was executed by Ling Chi for "conspiracy to rebel".

At this moment!

Yang Guoguang was lying on the door with his back to the sky, his eyes were wide open, and he seemed to be dead. His blood flowed out and quickly froze into ice in the cold night. Almost half of them became skeletons!

The scale of the Ximeishan bandit cottage is relatively large, and there are many groups of refugees who work as slaves here.

What made Zhu Zilong happy was that there were still many carpenters in Jingran, and they obviously wanted to set up a cottage quickly, and these bandits also knew how to collect skilled craftsmen.

This is something more precious than silver, and it is a burden in the eyes of others, but in Zhu Zilong's heart, there is nothing more precious than talent.

At that moment, Haosheng appeased them and returned to Zhujiazhuang.

Not to mention gold, silver and jewelry, there are really countless of them.

And there are more than a hundred war horses, I am dizzy, Zhu Zilong didn't believe it before, but now he really believes Lin Shuang'er's words.

These war horses are obviously intended to be used by the bandit leaders to run away, and now they are all cheap Zhu Zilong.

Truckloads of materials came to Zhujiazhuang under the transportation of logistics personnel.

The crowd of onlookers! (It's hard to hide!) ）

At that moment, the next day, Zhu Zilong sent a lot of daily chemical products, and some silver taels to the high-ranking officials in various cities to do a little bit of something, so that some officials would not be too red-eyed and have nothing to do.

Everyone was praising Zhu Zilong's ability, and the people who came from the government went to the bandits' den in Ximei Mountain once, and they didn't talk much after they came back, but it can be seen from the excited expressions of those officials and officials that the bandits are indeed all finished!

The others looked at the harmless young man (Zhu Zilong) in a Tsing Yi Confucian shirt, with a sunny smiling face, shuttling among the officials, talking and laughing, all in awe.

In the following days, the officials who came to fight the autumn breeze and praise them became more and more high-grade.

When the prefect also came, the atmosphere reached a climax.

The new prefect, who had not been in office for a long time, was said to have a great enmity with the bandits on this mountain, and specially asked to come here to take office.

once shouted to the outside world and ordered someone to cut Yang Guoguang's head back at all costs, because his father died in an activity where Yang Guoguang slaughtered the road to grab money.

The first thing Wang Zhifu did when he got up every day was to swear to his father's tablet that he would take Yang Guoguang's people to the grave to pay respects, and this obsession almost drove him crazy.

Now, the wish is in advance, and let Zhu Zilong help him achieve it. How can you not like it!

When Zhu Zilong asked someone to send Yang Guoguang's head, Governor Wang's body trembled violently.

I heard him scream: "Thief! You have it too! ”

After shouting these words, the whole person of the Wang Governor's Mansion fainted straight. After the old servant woke him up with water, he only heard him let out a long breath, and the whole person immediately woke up.

"Good, good, good, good brother help me get rid of this thief, you are my brother. In ancient times, there were three alliances in Taoyuan, but is the virtuous brother willing to marry with his brother? ”

Zhu Zilong knew that this product was a clean official, and he was also a celebrity in history, and now he was the boss of the local area, so he could not easily get closer. The so-called emperor is far away, and the county officials are not as good as the county management, which is the truth.

So, he agreed with a smile on the spot.

It is better to choose a day than to hit the day, and the top administrator in the vicinity, except for the first and second leaders in Shandong, Wang Zhifu, is just in full view of everyone, and Zhu Zilong is a brother with a different surname.

Following the example of Taoyuan Liu Guanzhang, well, it seems that there is one less person.

(The prefect is a fourth-rank official, equivalent to the mayor of a modern 21st-century independent city (excluding county-level cities), and in the case of a special administrative region, it is also equivalent to a provincial-level cadre.) In addition, because in ancient times, there was no separation between administration and justice, it can be said that the administrative and military power was in charge of it, after all, the grain and grass of the military attache were under the control of the civilian officials. ）

The governor is similar to the vice-governor, or the governor, or the like.

After paying homage to the prefect, Zhu Zilong warmly invited other officials and gentry to his home for dinner.

Everyone walked into Zhujiazhuang, looked up and saw a huge non-poisonous watchdog climbing on the pillars and said with a smile: "It's really a green dragon around the pillar!" ”

After another glance, the yawning little white and little black in the living room sighed again: "The dragon, tiger, and holy beasts are all complete, and the lord is also happy!" ”

(The watchman snake, a non-venomous "four-eel-green" snake.) The snake has a gentle personality, but its appearance is fierce and ugly, its body is as thin as a hemp rope, and its head is as large as a sea bowl, and its eyes are shining. Whenever other animals attack, they will bravely rush forward and make fierce eye contact with the enemy. ）

Some people put them outside the door when all the members of the family were out, let them watch over the yard, and drive away wolves or wild dogs that came to eat sheep.

Therefore, it is also called the house snake!

Zhu Zilong laughed secretly in his heart, one snake and two tigers are called Daxing.

There is also a hundred-year-old king eight in the pool in the backyard, which was given to him by the common people, and a few big peacocks, can it be said that the four holy beasts are all complete?

However, what Zhu Zilong didn't know was.

When the watchman snake on the beam pillar looked at the humans below, the eyes were not cold-blooded, but clear, like human eyes, unlike other snakes who were born blind. Especially when looking at Zhu Zilong, there is a kind feeling from the heart!

It wasn't until they had entered the dining hall that it swam down from above the house.

The two tigers, the little black and the white, saw the snake coming down, and Jingran did not have any extra movements, but they were eating pork together with two tigers and one snake coexisting peacefully.

And these pork are mixed with Zhu Zilong's face and bath water, as well as sweat and even some blood.

(Zhu Zilong usually uses to improve the intelligence of Xiaohei Xiaobai, after all, he is a half-dragon person, and body fluids and blood have special effects.) ）
