Chapter 351: The Cruelest Punishment

Wei Yi originally wanted to dissuade Jiang Xinyi from setting up a private court, which would be so sinful. But when he saw that the emperor had acquiesced, and there were still two princes there, it was okay, so he couldn't help but keep silent.

"I want to ask you who instigated it, you must not say it, right?" Jiang Xinyi put her hands behind her back and asked one of them. The man gave Jiang Xinyi a blank look and turned his head away.

The other two also looked like they were going to die.

"Xiao Li, do you know what is the heaviest punishment in our Dongliang Kingdom?" Jiang Xinyi opened her mouth to ask Xiao Li at the door.

"Hanging, beheading, five horses splitting the corpses, burning 、、、" Xiao Li pondered for a while, and answered honestly, he didn't understand why this Jiang Gongzi didn't ask so many people, but asked himself?

Jiang Xinyi shook her head and said slowly to Wen Jingqian, "Your Majesty, I know a few better things, do you want to see them?" ”

"Third brother, let's talk about it." Wen Jingqian asked curiously.

"The first one is to skin a living person." Jiang Xinyi said coldly.

"Human skin, isn't that very difficult to do?" The wild cat "interjected" on the sidelines.

"No, it's not difficult at all. When peeling, the spine is knifed, and the back skin is divided into two halves with a knife, and the skin and muscles are slowly separated with the knife, and the wings of a butterfly are torn apart. The hardest is the fat one, because there is still a pile of oil between the skin and the muscles, which is not easy to separate. However, this person should be easy to peel. Jiang Xinyi walked behind the man in the middle, and while explaining, she used her hand to draw behind the man's back.

When the man heard this, he couldn't help but shiver, and the rest of the room opened their mouths in surprise.

Another method of peeling is to bury a person in the earth, 'expose' only one head, cut a cross with a knife on the top of the head, pull the scalp apart, and pour mercury into it. Because the specific gravity of mercury is very heavy, it will pull the muscles and skin apart, and the person buried in the soil will writhe in pain, and will not be able to break free, and finally the body will jump out of the mouth from the fixed mouth, and only a piece of skin will be left in the soil." Jiang Xinyi walked behind the other person, pointing at his head with her hand and explaining.

The people standing around were stunned, and the corners of the man's mouth twitched.

"After the skin is peeled off, it can be made into a two-sided drum and hung at the entrance of the yamen to show the ring. However, I suggest that it be better to skin it alive, otherwise everyone will die, why are you still pulling that egg? Jiang Xinyi gritted her teeth and said to the person in front of her.

As soon as Jiang Xinyi's words fell, the person began to tremble, and Ziqi and the others felt chills all over their bodies.

The second is Ling Chi, which is what the folk call "a thousand cuts". Lingchi originally referred to the slope of the mountain that was slowly decreasing, and Lingchi originally meant "a gentle hill". Used as a name for the death penalty, it refers to the execution of a person's flesh with a knife, so that the victim will die slowly and painfully.

The method of execution of Ling Chi is very special, and it is generally to cut off pieces of flesh from a person's body. Generally, it is cut into eight knives, first cutting the head and face, then the hands and feet, then the chest and abdomen, then the head, and finally dismembering. Jiang Xinyi gestured on the third person and said, and the man's eyes were all looking at Jiang Xinyi in horror.

"If it's more fine, most of Ling Chi is more than a thousand knives, once someone was cut for three days, a total of three thousand three hundred and fifty-seven knives, it is said that after the first day of cutting, that person also drank a little porridge, and continued the next day." Jiang Xinyi said as she looked at the figure of the third person.

"The number of knives in Ling Chi is roughly twenty-four, thirty-six, seventy-two, and one hundred and twenty. Among them, the 24 knives are: 1 and 2 knives to cut both eyebrows, 3 and 4 knives to cut both shoulders, 5 and 6 knives to cut double "milk", 7 and 8 knives to cut the hands and between the elbows, 9 and 10 knives to cut off the part between the elbows and the shoulders, 11 and 12 knives to cut off the flesh of the legs, 13 and 14 knives to cut the belly of the legs, 15 knives to the heart, 16 knives to cut the head, 17 and 18 knives to cut both hands, 19 and 20 knives to cut both wrists, 21 and 22 knives to cut both feet, 23 and 24 knives to cut both legs. Jiang Xinyi said as she demonstrated it with her hands on this person, very carefully.

After Jiang Xinyi finished speaking, let alone these three assassins, even the other people in the room couldn't stand it. Even Wen Yuxin, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, and the others shuddered, because they found that Jiang Xinyi was not fooling at all. He spoke of the Word, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

Wen Yuxin and An Pengfei stared at Jiang Xinyi tightly, and they couldn't imagine how she knew this, and it was so detailed!

How would they know that this was just something Jiang Xinyi read about ancient punishments when she was bored when she was studying. Jiang Xinyi was very impressed at the time, and felt that the ancient people were too cruel, so she remembered this very clearly, and she didn't forget it for several years.

Jiang Xinyi herself wondered why it was so difficult to memorize a chemical element and formula, but she remembered this so clearly. Otherwise, wouldn't I be able to invent something more valuable in this dynasty?

"I know, you're not afraid of this, it's okay, I'm just in a bad mood, who let you hurt my most important person? Let's test it with the three of you and see if I'm doing it right? Listen to the sound of a drum made of your human skin? You two, you are in good shape, suitable for peeling. And if you're a little fatter, just Ling Chi, I guess, you can suffer for four days. I don't mind getting my hands dirty and looking at my stamina as well. Jiang Xinyi finally stopped in front of the slightly fat man and said.

"Ahem, that Yi Xin, you're not planning to do it here, are you?" Luo Ke asked tentatively.

"Of course not, I originally wanted to try it here, but when I saw that people were tough guys, I didn't bother to talk about it, wait for the market to close the stalls, get out of the Beicheng roots, find an abandoned house, and do it there." Jiang Xinyi replied to Luo Ke.

"Brother Shangguan, you take advantage of the fact that the store is not closed now, go and help me buy mercury, if not, buy more Zhu Dan, let's refine it ourselves, it shouldn't be difficult." Jiang Xinyi said to Shangguan.

Jiang Xinyi knew that mercury could be bought in this ancient period. In some large families, when someone who died in the family, they would go back to the poor family to buy two children, a man and a woman, and then dress them up beautifully, and then pour mercury on them, and then put them in the tomb, and they would be golden boys and girls.

Though the child is dead, his face is indeed alive. However, I have never heard of such a thing happening in this Dongliang country.

"Your Majesty, it's not too early, you better go back, tomorrow will be early, do you want to stay and watch the excitement? It's better not to watch it, I'll have nightmares at night, I can't afford to be charged with this. Jiang Xinyi looked up at Wen Jingqian's face and said to him.

"Then remember to tell me about the results." Wen Jingqian had no choice but to lead + passionately his own people and leave first.

"I'm going to buy mercury." Shangguan Hong said and walked out.

"You go and get the carriage ready." Jiang Xinyi said to the wild cat.

The wildcat nodded and walked out.

Those three people now know that this time the hurdle is difficult, and now they don't want to live, but they want to die quickly.

The three of them exchanged their eyes, and one of the slightly older spoke: "Let's talk ......"
