Chapter Eighty-Four: The Will
Before An Zhifu rushed to the dungeon, he ordered people to kill star fruit and Qiao An twenty times each. When he arrived, he made a gesture again.
Instead of summoning the prisoners in court, he deigned to go to the cell where Joan and star fruit were being held in person.
Before the cell door was opened, An Zhifu looked at their injuries through the fence and became angry: "Before the arraignment, who will be punished?" ”
The cell boss on the side was stunned, "Isn't it your old order?" Dare not think of saying this, the cell head bowed his head and replied solemnly: "If you enter the prison, you will first be beaten with thirty kills, which is a practice that has been passed down since ancient times." ”
He timidly glanced at the prefect's master, and after meeting the prefect's hidden encouragement and appreciation, he continued to say: "Even in the capital, it is inevitable to kill the mighty stick." In the case of recalcitrant prisoners, the methods and practices in prison have a better history. ”
"Nonsense!" An Zhifu snorted, and his eyebrows were upside down: "We in Shuzhou, we don't bend to make that move." ”
The cell boss immediately knelt down: "My lord misunderstood, it wasn't a trick. We have allowed the use of punishment to deal with particularly stubborn criminals, and capital punishment is not indispensable. ”
The prefect of a place, still doesn't understand the law?
The carambola was not lightly injured, and the pain was so painful that she gasped for air, and she had no energy and no mood to go to An Zhifu to do a show. Joan's legs were also beaten to a bloody pulp, and he leaned his back against the wall, half-closed his eyes to recuperate.
He knew that An Zhifu was not making a show. He's looking for an unassailable entry point, ready to crush them from body to heart.
The situation to be faced in the future will be very difficult, and the road to help without relatives and without a door is bumpy and difficult.
Sure enough, after checking the legal code that the master had moved, the Governor of An performed the next performance: "Since there is a code to be found, then do things according to the rules." These two are nobles who can speak in front of the three princes, and you can also familiarize them with the rules of torture, so that they can shout injustice to the three princes in the hall when they get the time, and sue the official for being beaten into a trick! ”
An Zhifu chose case teaching, that is, let Qiao An and star fruit watch the interrogation and torture.
This time, they were dragged to a heavy torture cell. From afar, the unpleasant smell of blood mixed with rotten flesh rushed to the nose, and the smoke made people vomit wildly.
When you enter the house, you will be greeted by strange torture instruments all over the walls, and the strange cold and gloomy appearance will make people feel cold under their feet.
The star fruit's face was a little pale, and her heart was beating like a drum. Qiao An, who was in shackles, stepped forward and blocked the view of star fruit with her body.
The prefect of An saw Qiao An's movements, so he gave another order: "Please sit down, look at it lively, if you don't look carefully, this official will ask for you." ”
So, the officials tied Joan and star fruit to different tiger chairs, so that they could see the torture table from the best angle.
Once everything was ready, the show began. It was a scene more cruel and terrifying than hell, and the horror level was compared to all the horror legends in the world.
The first to play was a Jiangyang thief.
He had a huge scar on his face that ran diagonally from his forehead to his chin, and his eyes were full of anger and fierceness. Looking at him for a second, I also felt that my soul was empty.
He is said to have carried dozens of lives on his back.
An Zhifu wants to try a case of extermination, and suspects that the thief in front of him is the murderer.
Whenever a case is questioned, regardless of whether the suspect is wronged or not, he will never admit guilt easily. The tip of the knife licks the blood, and the hard-boned Jiangyang thief is even more so.
He tilted his head back, from the killing rod to the whipping, from the clamping stick to the nail nails, from the soldering iron to the wooden hand to deboning. The torture chamber was splattered with flesh and blood, and screams were repeated.
Every time it was carried out, there was a colorful explanation in the ears of Qiao An and Carambola: "Which article is this used for, and that is the basis for punishment." "In short, they all act according to the law, even in front of the emperor, they can pat their chests and say 'upright'.
The star fruit turned her head, and the official forcibly broke her head, and the star fruit closed her eyes and refused to look, so the official forcibly broke her eyes.
Qiao An scolded loudly, and the official directly gagged him with stinky socks.
All the torture instruments in the house were used once, and the thief refused to recruit them. The cell boss boiled a large pot of boiling water in front of everyone, mixed it with thick salt, and poured it all on the thief.
Carambola will never forget the tragic screams of the thief for the rest of her life, and when she dreams back at midnight, the miserable and miserable that soars to the sky can still startle her into a cold sweat, and then she will be unable to sleep all night.
No one knows whether the murder case was done by the thief, anyway, the thief who was woken up by the ice water again confessed. He described the process of committing the crime vividly, but it was full of loopholes.
But those are not important, An Zhifu instructed the master lightly: "Sort out the confession and let him sign it." ”
Please pay attention to the two words of tidying! We have you to believe that the confession after being sorted out is absolutely seamless!
Joan's thin lips were pursed, and there was sweat on her forehead; Carambola's face was so white that there was no blood, and her whole body trembled uncontrollably.
An Zhifu glanced at them and thoughtfully instructed his subordinates: "I see that Dr. Yang has a bad complexion, go and make a bowl of water for Dr. Yang." ”
The official was about to leave, and the prefect of An ordered again: "It's time for lunch, and I brought lunch to Gongzi Qiao and Dr. Yang." The first meal has to be meaty. After eating, you can also have the physical strength to watch us continue to judge. ”
The star fruit was still thinking about how to soak in the water, and the official had already brought things up.
The water is brown sugar water, and it looks like the blood of the old and the new on the wall. It is a thick porridge made of millet, and the dead rice grains are mixed with half-cooked pig blood. The dishes are also very distinctive, steaming medium-cooked pork brain, cold mixed medium-cooked pork liver, fresh food with pulsating pig heart.
As a distinguished guest with special care from the prefect, dessert is indispensable after the meal. The servants served them mixed with pieces of sheep. The whole sheep's head is chopped and smashed except for the eyes, ears, mouth and nose, plus chicken fingers, duck thighs, dog tails, mixed with tomato sauce and honey juice, the visual impact formed by the color and shape is absolutely unprecedented, unprecedented.
Just one glance, the star fruit vomited, and then the whole body was numb, and the whole person was weak and weak.
Of course, neither Joan nor star fruit can afford to enjoy the warm hospitality of An Zhifu. No matter how coercive and tempting they were, the food was just quietly placed in front of them.
"There must be a lack of firewood on the stove, and the two of them have been wronged."
An Zhifu had a smile on his face, and his voice was as gentle as ever.
No one paid attention to him, the star fruit still lowered her head, and Joan emptied her soul together.
After that, the Governor of An interrogated three criminals according to the 'Code', and the punishment used was indescribably perverted, until the star fruit broke down and shouted and scolded.
Maybe it was because of the competition with star fruit, and he thought it was a female suspect again. Torture is not repeated, and the extreme is jealousy, contempt and humiliation of women.
In front of all the men, your female suspect is not qualified to wear clothes, and the punishment is all for private parts. The meanness of the technique and the obscenity of the rhetoric are simply a precedent.
Qiao An's eyes were red, her voice was hoarse, and the star fruit passed out directly.
The Governor of An didn't give them room to adapt and slow down, and poured cold water on the people, and then cut to the point: "You all understand the rules and procedures of our trial, right?" Next, let's sort out the origin of Soul Eater and Ten Congsan, Doctor Yang, you have no opinion, right? ”
Star fruit trembled, and her teeth couldn't help fighting. She glared at An Zhifu fiercely, pursed her lips and refused to speak.
"Tell me, how did you bring the poison into the prefect's mansion? Who are your connectors and where are they hiding? ”
Carambola gritted her teeth and did not speak.
Things have developed to this point, and star fruit is a fool and has already understood: your argument is not important, and the evidence is no longer important. All they want is a confession, a mudra.
Because of the three princes watching, he couldn't take the risk of making up confessions, let alone cutting off their fingers and forcibly pressing their handprints, so the only thing he had to do was to defeat their edicts and let them recruit!
Therefore, the only thing they have to do is one thing: resist and persevere, that is, they cannot let go of their mouths that are more painful than death, and they must not let go.
"Dr. Yang also wants to taste the torture equipment?"
An Zhifu's voice was still gentle, but his movements were not so gentle.
As soon as he beckoned, the star fruit was hung on the beam, and the old cowhide whip with iron nails stained with salt water was wrapped in the wind and whipped on her: "Although Cuixiang is dead, she has left letters and joint codes, and all kinds of evidence point directly to you, what's the use of you being stubborn?" ”
After watching so many horror and horror records, the fear in star fruit's heart has long reached the extreme. The pain that pierced her heart struck, and her soul collapsed, but she still bit her, and she was beaten to death with one sentence: "I haven't done it, you don't want to bend it into a trick." ”
If she really didn't have the strength, she clenched her teeth and silently recited Joan's name over and over again in her heart: "Joan, Joan, my Joan, Joan who gave up her life to accompany me to prison." With you, I'm not afraid. With you, I will go to hell, and my heart will not drag you down. ”
"I'm a spy, what are you who protect me with your life?"
The whipping was useless, and An Zhifu put on the stick again: "The most important thing in acupuncture is to find the acupuncture points accurately, Dr. Yang has broken this green onion-like slender ten fingers, but can he still practice medicine to save people, and hang the pot to help the world?" ”
An Zhifu stood in front of the star fruit and chuckled with a seductive chuckle: "As long as you recruit, the official will let you go." Leave you a pair of skillful hands, and you will be a famous doctor in the next life. ”
"By the way, An'er's illness has improved, he has been strong yesterday and will show it again, so I will thank you and take care of you."
Star fruit lifted her eyelids to look at him, then bit her tongue and vomited blood on his face with all her strength.
An Zhifu was annoyed and angry, and shouted: "Punishment." ”
Joan struggled on the tiger chair with all her strength, and the hemp rope that bound him was strangled into the flesh and she didn't feel pain. But in the end, he is just a puppet, and he can't break free. Even if you have exhausted all methods, you can only watch your sweetheart suffer.
The star fruit was so painful that it died, fainted several times, but it never screamed, shouted or suffered, and the muffled humming when it broke through the limit of patience only lasted for a short time.
She didn't want to cry, her crying and miserable torture was definitely Joan's soul.
Joan, my Joan, it's good that you're here; If you are there, my soul will never fall on its knees......
