Chapter 23 The prefect is full of nobles
The four jailers pounced like wolves, two pressed Ling Feng's hands to death on the shelf, and the other two took out clamping sticks and put them on Ling Feng's fingers. As the so-called ten fingers connected to the heart, with both hands clamping the stick, Ling Feng screamed and almost fainted. But after a while, Ling Feng felt that it didn't hurt as much as just now, he thought that the jailer was lazy and didn't exert as much force as he did just now, but when he peeked at the two jailers, he seemed to be pulling the clamp stick with all his might.
As the pain was greatly reduced, Ling Feng simply closed his eyes and stopped shouting.
Zhang Jia gave a thumbs up and praised: "Good! The most interesting thing is the tough guys. ”
Then he shouted: "Change the whip!" ”
His leather whip is different from the leather whip in the torture room in Fenghuji, the leather whip is full of barbs, and when it hits the barbs on the body, it will be embedded in the flesh, and when the whip is collected, the meat on the body will be brought down.
A sturdy jailer picked up a leather whip and hit Ling Feng's body, thinking that it would break Ling Feng's skin, but he didn't expect to leave a bloody mark on Ling Feng's body. Immediately after that, more than a dozen whips went down, all of them were the same as this whip, the barbs on the leather whip did not penetrate Ling Feng's flesh at all, and Ling Feng didn't snort.
Ling Feng still wondered in his heart, why these people were like they hadn't eaten compared to the people who beat me yesterday, and they only hurt a little bit when they hit me, not at all like yesterday.
Ling Feng self-righteously thought that his ability to resist attacks had increased, but he didn't know that it was because the true qi of the void was further combined with his body, forming a natural resistance and resistance to the external power. Now, as long as Ling Feng is not stabbed with a sharp weapon, ordinary torture tools can no longer cause harm to his body.
Zhang Jia saw that the whipping was useless to Ling Feng, and shouted again: "Use wooden hands!" ”
A wooden hand is a short wooden stick carved into the shape of a human hand. The wooden hand is less than two feet long and about three inches thick, and is made of hard wood.
The two jailers each held a wooden hand, came to Ling Feng's approach, and placed the wooden hand on Ling Feng's ribs and rubbed it horizontally and vertically. Under normal circumstances, because there is less flesh and more bones in the human backbone, scrape with the edges and corners of wooden hands, and the light ones are blue and purple, and the heavy ones are broken out of the skin. However, the two of them used their strength to eat, and they only saw many bloody marks on Ling Feng's body.
Zhang Jia finally knew that Ling Feng was a martial arts master who protected his true qi, and it was pointless to continue to torture. To know that the punishment is the heaviest, the torturer must overwhelm the other party at the mental level in order to receive twice the result with half the effort. However, in this execution, all the reactions expected by Zhang Jia from Ling Feng did not appear, and he could be said to be a complete defeat in this execution.
Zhang Jia said dejectedly: "Take him back, and wait for the prefect to be sent tomorrow." ”
Ling Feng was escorted back to his cell.
On the second day, the prefect of Hangzhou, Mangui, ascended to the hall and ordered: "Bring the criminal Ling Feng up." ”
"With Lingfeng...... Take Ling Feng ......," shouted the officials on both sides.
Two officials had already taken Ling Feng out of the prison and were waiting outside the hall at this time. Hearing the call of the prefect, he hurriedly escorted Ling Feng to the lobby.
"Wei ...... Wu ......" accompanied Ling Feng to be taken to the lobby, and the officials on both sides hit the floor with water and fire sticks in their hands, dragging a long note in their mouths and singing, building momentum for the prefect Mangui.
This Hangzhou prefect is not an ordinary person, and his family background is quite deep. It is precisely because of this that the mediocre and mediocre Mangui can seek the "fat shortage" of the Hangzhou prefect. Speaking of the Manchu family, we have to talk about the Manchu family, the Tong Tulai family. When Tong Tulai was young, he followed Emperor Taiji of the Qing Dynasty and made great contributions in the battle against Jinzhou, and was awarded the title of the Blue Banner Master of the Han Army. After following Shunzhi into the customs, he was transferred to the Han army with white flags and assisted Shunzhi in recruiting Shandong, Shanxi and other places. Later, he followed the prince of Yu Duoduo to seek Li Zicheng in the west, and pacified Henan, Jiangnan and other places. He made great achievements for the Manchu Qing Dynasty. What's more, Tong Tulai's daughter married Shunzhi and became Empress Xiaokangzhang, the biological mother of the current Kangxi Emperor Xuanye. Since then, the Tong clan has been given the Yellow Flag in Manchuria. Mangui's ancestors also belonged to the Han Army's Blue Banner, and it was precisely because of the marriage relationship with the then prince Taibao Tong Tulai, and together with the Tong family, he was given the Yellow Flag people, belonging to the Manchu Dynasty Shangsanqi, and his status was prominent. It was by virtue of his relationship with Tong Guowei, the second son of Tong Guolai, the younger brother of Empress Xiaokangzhang, and the uncle of Emperor Kangxi, that he rose to prominence and became the prefect of Hangzhou.
This person is full of nobles, insidious and vicious, and has no ambition and is sparse. Since he took office as the prefect of Hangzhou, he has welcomed the superiors, reported good news but not bad news, and excluded dissidents from the subordinates, cleverly set up a name, and single-mindedly searched for the people's fat and ointment. Part of the money looted was used for his own squandering, and part of it was used to bribe the officials of the dynasty to open up joints for his career. Anyone who opposed him was convicted by him, and the lighter ones were sent to the army, and the worst ones were unjustly killed in prison. He has a bad ghost master under him, named Zhang Tingzhi, who specializes in giving advice to him. This Zhang Tingzhi has not done many bad things in bullying men and women and fish and meat towns on weekdays, but with Mangui supporting him behind his back, everyone dares to be angry and dare not speak. These two people are embarrassed, and in the two years that Mangui took office, they made a good Hangzhou city a miasma, and the people complained. However, because there were people in the Manchurian court, no one could touch him.
Ling Feng came to the lobby with shackles, stood without kneeling, and looked at the Hangzhou prefect in front of him. I saw that the prefect in front of me was in his forties, with a fat head and big ears, a white face and beard, and two thieves shooting out of a pair of small eyes. It was the official uniform on his body that added a lot of prestige to him. At the same time, the prefect Mangui on the high platform was also squinting at the pair of thief eyes and looking at the bloodstained and ragged young man under the hall.
After looking at it for a long time, Man Gui suddenly picked up the startling wood on the table, slapped it heavily on the table, and said with great authority: "Who is in the hall, why did you not kneel when you see this official!" ”
The officials on both sides immediately shouted: "Wei ...... Wu ......"
The two officials who were in charge of Ling Feng in the hall saw the prefect wielding his power, and hurriedly kicked one on the left and one on the left and one on the left, kicking Ling Feng's knee. Ling Feng's legs were weak, and he was forced to kneel, wanting to struggle, but was held down by the shoulders of the two servants one by one. Ling Feng looked up at Man Gui, his eyes full of anger. The heart said, damn, what the way of the world. wronged Lao Tzu, beat Lao Tzu, and asked Lao Tzu to kneel for him. As long as I get out alive this time, I'm going to kill them all!" Thinking of this, Ling Feng was shocked in his heart, wondering how he could have such a terrible thought.
