I don't know if it's because the Lao Ma family kills too many people, and some of them are innocent people. Therefore, there was a crisis of succession in the Lao Ma family, and the three sons of the big house died of illness in succession, and even the son-in-law who entered the family had an accident. At that time, it was the late Ming Dynasty, and the business of killing people gradually decreased. In order to inherit the incense, the big house asked the second room for a child. By the time the second room had left Nanjing, he came to an unknown town and lived a stable life. There are not many heirs in the second room, a son and a daughter. Dafang and Erfang decided that if the son of Erfang could give birth to two sons, he would give one child to Dafang. If there is only one child, the child born to the daughter will be the one of the big house. At that time, the daughter of the second room was pregnant, and her husband died again, and she lived in Lao Ma's house as a widow.

It wasn't until Yingzong ascended the throne that the youngest son of the second room of the Lao Ma family came to Beijing to take office. He once again started the business of killing heads, and he vomited all over the ground the first time he killed someone. Soon, the ancestor of the old Ma family, who was not suitable for this job, was kicked out of the Beijing killing industry by his counterparts in Beijing because of his unqualified job. This ancestor returned to his hometown town and lived with his brother. I didn't expect to kill people, but there are not many people killed in small places, so it's good to kill once or twice a year. Knowing that the elder brother in the second room also broke the incense, the entire Lao Ma family only has descendants in this room.

The warden and the ancestor of the murderous Lao Ma family did not want to be famous again. But history has changed his fate, and the mighty general Zhu Shou met the ancestor of the old Ma family, that is, the grandfather and father of "Ma Sandao".

The grandfather of "Ma Sandao" bragged about his family's murderous history to a stranger on the side when he was drunk. Unexpectedly, they were the soldiers of the Black Legion beside the mighty general Zhu Shou. They reported the affairs of Lao Ma's family to the mighty general Zhu Shou, this Zhengde Emperor was a whimsical person. He felt that if he, the descendant of the emperor, could be the emperor and govern the world, the descendant of the executioner who killed people could kill. He ordered the two fathers and sons of the Lao Ma family to be the executioners of the Black Legion, ready to kill at any time. The ancestors of the Lao Ma family had to live a wandering life with the Black Army, and almost never killed anyone.

One of the most proud things in the life of the grandfather of "Ma Sandao" was to kill the traitor Jiang Bin. After Jiang Bin was defeated, he was ordered to be executed by Emperor Zhengde, that is, the mighty general Zhu Shou. Because Jiang Bin was nominally the godson of the mighty general Zhu Shou, he was not sentenced to "Ling Chi", but only beheaded. It's a pity that the ancestors of the Lao Ma family at that time were not professionals like his ancestors, and the knife that should have been cut on Jiang Bin's waist was cut on Jiang Bin's thigh. Because the knife was not only heavy but had also been sharpened quickly by this ancestor, not only did Jiang Bin not die after the knife, Jiang Bin also became a disabled person without two thighs. In order to make up for the mistake, the ancestor of the Lao Ma family made up another knife, and due to nervousness, it slashed on Jiang Bin's shoulder, and the knife was stuck in Jiang Bin's bones. Jiang Bin glanced back at the ancestor of the Lao Ma family painfully, meaning don't play with me, hurry up and give me a good time. Don't torture me anymore, I didn't kill your parents, rob your family property, cheat on your wife, and cut off your family's roots, why did you bully me so much? In Jiang Bin's grievances, this ancestor of the Lao Ma family ended Jiang Bin's life. Because of this almost comical performance, the grandfather of "Ma Sandao" did not dare to kill anymore. He insisted on returning to his hometown to be a prison officer, and he didn't dare to kill for others.

The father of "Ma Sandao" has only killed one person in his life, but this person has made everyone know about the old Ma family. The great eunuch Liu Jin, he is not only the eunuch of the Zhengde Emperor's dynasty, but also the governor of Dongchang and the chief of the eunuchs. He is a vicious person and loves money very much, and he is a bad person who does almost anything bad. After his conspiracy to rebel was exposed, the mighty general Zhu Shou, that is, Emperor Zhengde, sentenced Liu Jin to "Ling Chi". "Ling Chi" means to break the corpse, but to cut the flesh of the prisoner alive. It is a very meticulous job, and it is the business of the executioner who kills the murderer at the best of his skill. This punishment is enjoyed only by convicts of treason, nor by ordinary convicts.

Ma Sandao's father was only about 20 years old at the time, and in order to complete this arduous and glorious task, he not only looked through the experience left by his ancestors, but also asked many experienced seniors. Only then did I understand all the details about "Ling Chi". "Ling Chi" is not completed in one day, but in ten days. The tools are a fine-hole fishing net and a knife. Tie the fishing net tightly to the prisoner, and cut off the prisoner's flesh piece by piece from the protruding prisoner's body. The first day is the chest, the second day is the foreabdomen, the third day is the back, the fourth day is the buttocks, the fifth day is the left leg, the sixth day is the right leg, the seventh day is the left arm, the eighth day is the right arm, the ninth day is the head, and the tenth day is the whole body. Every day three hundred and sixty knives must be cut, and the flesh must be cut with a knife. Ten days, three thousand six hundred knives, until the last one can end the life of the prisoner. If the prisoner dies early, the remaining number of knives is borne by the executor.

The father of "Ma Sandao" personally tortured Liu, and after cutting 360 knives on the first day, he used the best gold sore medicine to treat Liu Jin's injuries. The purpose of treating the injury is not so that Liu Jin can get better, but so that Liu Jin can live and not die of excessive bleeding due to serious injuries. At that time, there were many people who came to observe Liu Jin's execution, including many executioners from all over the world. They watched with envy as the father of "Ma Sandao" did his work while studying. So far, everyone regards the father of "Ma Sandao" as the new leader of the executioner industry. After they went back, they also played all of Liu Jin's cronies and minions like this a few times. The hatred between "Ma Sandao" and the eunuchs ended in this way.

Soon after, "Ma Sandao" got tired of the prosperity of the capital and returned to his hometown to live an ordinary life with his father.

"Ma Sandao" said: "Not every soldier of the Black Legion is so loyal to the mighty general Zhu Shou. If it hadn't been for the timely replacement of the soldiers of the First Guard and Third Factory, it is estimated that it would not have been Jiang Bin or Liu Jin who would have died a long time ago, but this absurd and mighty general Zhu Shou. ”

Qin Tai knew the mystery inside, and nodded with understanding.

"Ma Sandao" said: "As for the armor of the Black Legion, I also have a set at home. My grandfather took it home that year. It's just the kind that hasn't been modded. I also played it a lot when I was a kid. So this armor is not only available to the soldiers of the Black Legion. I remember my grandfather and my father saying that after the first refit, a general asked for the original equipment that was replaced. So this armor of the black legion, there should be an outflow. I thought it was Liu Jin's remnants who used the name of the Black Army to take revenge on the officials of the year. ”

The "old drunkard" master also said: "Yes, as far as I know. When Emperor Zhengde was in charge of Bintian, almost all the soldiers and equipment of the Black Legion were buried with the mighty general Zhu Shou. The armor of the black legionnaires who have really been modified is actually not many among the people. What's more, if any of these Black Legion soldiers were still alive, they would have been over sixty years old, and some even over seventy. Not only can they no longer ride war horses, but even war horses will die of old age. So the men and horses of the Black Legion who appeared must have been impersonated. As for what they were for, we can only determine the results after looking at the names of those who died. The suspicion of less than three knives is also very well-founded. At that time, Liu Jin, as the eunuch in charge of the seal and the governor of the East Factory, definitely had the right and ability to access this batch of equipment. If he had secretly left this batch of equipment behind back then, he would have explained the cause of this strange phenomenon. But I have a question, why did they do it at this time? Liu Jin has been dead for so many years, and many enemies have also died. If he had avenged Liu Jin, he would have done it a long time ago. But if they weren't Liu Jin's people, how could they get this batch of equipment? ”

Zhan Xiaoxiao heard it, and everyone analyzed and concluded that this group of black legions was fake, not soldiers under the real mighty general Zhu Shou. That is to say, they pretend to be people who are already dead, and come out to scare and endanger the living. She has nothing to be afraid of, she is a girl born afraid of ghosts, but she is definitely not afraid of evil people.

Zhan Xiao Novel: "Since they are not ghosts, we have no reason to be afraid of them. I'm going to catch a few and come back, won't you know the truth in the first trial? ”

Qin Taibai glanced at Zhan Xiaoxiao, and said to Zhan Xiaoxin: "When did we say that we were afraid of them?" Even if they are really ghosts, or soldiers of the Black Legion back then, there is no need to be afraid of them. Are you afraid of ghosts? ”

Zhan Xiaoxiao blushed, she really thought it was a ghost, so she would be afraid. She didn't know why, she used to be very bold, but since she was with Qin Tai, she became less and less courageous. I don't know if I have the influence of Qin Tai, or if I am becoming more and more feminine in front of Qin Tai. She didn't dare to call everyone brother and sister in front of Qin Tai now, drinking wine in a big bowl and eating meat in a big piece. When she disguised herself as a man and walked on the rivers and lakes, she recognized her brothers everywhere, and made a lot of friends with big bowls of wine and big mouthfuls of meat. Now that Qin Taibai wanted to take a look at himself, he immediately quieted down, and while being cautious, he thought about whether he had done anything wrong. Why would he be so accommodating to Qin Tai, now he is already so afraid of Qin Tai, if he lives with Qin Tai in the future, I don't know what will happen.
