Chapter 175: The Life of the Red Buddha (17)
There are quite a few details to be added about this matter. For example, as soon as she got on the stage, Hongfu looked for a bench, because she thought that there must be a bench for hanging, but there was no bench on that platform. Upon inquiry, it was revealed that there would be no bench in her case, because she did not have to jump up and kick the bench over when the rope was around her neck. Mrs. Wei said that that method is not good, and she often hangs people crookedly. The improved method was to use the red whisk to pull a rope to start a machine that lowered the platform under its feet. This is a new invention, and of course it is a surprise to the red whisk. Red Whisk took the rope and tried it, but felt very unpleasant. So she said, "You don't ask me about such a big matter." I always thought it was a stool, and I was always thinking about how to do it!
While talking, a little eunuch came over and said, "Mrs. Jielie, please have a jade hand." Red Whisk asked: What are you doing? The man said, "Forgive me, and tie up your old man." Hongfu said: Are you afraid that I will run away? Mrs. Wei came to the round and said, "No." When you ascend to heaven for a while, if you scratch and scratch, it won't be good. What's more, everyone knows that you are a kung fu master, and you have a lot of strength in your hands, and you can't grab a handful. Please suffer some grievances. Fortunately, you are the one who is going to die, and you don't care about it. As he spoke, the little eunuch tied up the red whisk and tied it into a big bundle, and his movements were very skillful. Red Whisk said: You seem to tie up people a lot. The eunuch said, "For your own business, I went to the yamen to study for three days." Hongfu said: It's really difficult for you, reward you with ten taels of silver, and ask Aunt Wei for it. Aunt Wei, do we still have our silver?
Mrs. Wei smiled bitterly and said: Yes, yes, you old man can use it. The reason for this matter is this: Hongfu's private money, except for her daughter, is placed here by Mrs. Wei, and as soon as Hongfu dies, it will belong to Mrs. Wei. The more you use at this point, the less you will end up with. So it's no wonder that she has opinions, and she dares to be angry but doesn't dare to speak. The little eunuch was very happy when he got the reward, and said: I learned from Brother Xu. Every time someone comes out of the yamen, it is Brother Xu who is the main bundle. There is a great deal of knowledge here! There are differences between tying men, tying women, tying nobles, tying robbers. Tying up your old man is the way to tie up nobles. You see, how artistic it is! She looked down, and it was extraordinary. First of all, she was bound by a large red ribbon, which was different from hemp rope. Secondly, there are a lot of bows tied on this rope, which are hung in front of the armpits, under the abdomen, etc. On the chest is a large knot, like a peony flower. Even if you don't hang yourself, it's also good-looking. Red Whisk laughed and said, "If you don't say it, I would never have thought that I learned it from the executioner." I must think that the emperor is a sadist, this is the method of tying up the queen.
When the red whisk was tied, someone brought a black ribbon and said, "Please close your eyes, old man." Hongfu said: What is this for? You want to blindfold me? Are you afraid that I will see something? Mrs. Wei said: You are a layman. If you don't tie your eyes with a strap, the black beads will burst out after hanging them, and it will be unspeakably ugly. Hongfu said: Ah, what a trouble! I want to die by myself, and I don't die to anyone! The old woman Wei was shocked: You are starving and fainting! The widow is martyred, who is not dying for others to see!
The red eyes were clouded. In the darkness, someone said: Hang a rope for your old man. Please keep your waist straight. Straighten your waist again. All right. Your old man is shaking his head - how's it going?
The red whisk said, "Zhengzheng, give me that rope quickly." Mrs. Wei said, this can't be helped, where is it early. Now tighten the rope upwards. Your old man is on tiptoe – well, tightly. So he strangled the red whisk straight in the air. Red Whisk said, "Can we hurry up?" I'm very uncomfortable. Mrs. Wei said: This can't be helped. If you want to be comfortable, don't die. After adjusting like this for half an hour, Hongfu felt that her toes were numb. After doing a good job, Wei's wife Yu said: It's all right, you can withdraw the account. Then he heard the sound of the tent being removed. The wind outside blows in and is very fresh. But the red whisk wanted to suck a little into the lungs, but he couldn't. Red Whisk heard the voices below, a voice of praise and envy. Hongfu said: Okay, everyone has seen it, give me the head of the rope, I can't wait.
Hongfu was very sober at that time, although he was tied up like a roll of cover, and his eyes were pitch black, but he still remembered the essentials of the movement, that is, when he was about to lose his breath, he had to strain his toes violently, and he must not fight to the death. Also, when the rope is strangled, the neck should be straightened. This is very important. Some people are confused, and the result is that they are also messy when they hang in the air. Someone hangs to the left or right, twists the neck bone, and dies very quickly, but when he dies, he looks like a tree with a crooked neck, and it is very ugly. Someone hangs too far back, hanging in the air like a duck with its neck lifted, these are bad dead looks. will be laughed at. The worst thing is that the front of the sleeve is strangled to the back, and the person is hanging up in the air, like a big-headed fish lying on the beach. Because there is no place, old people will not die. No one else dared to put her down, because after putting her down, she would never try again. Therefore, I had to hang it for ten days and a half months. Hongfu thought, I will definitely succeed, because I practiced martial arts when I was young, and I am athletic, and these gymnastics essentials can't stop me. She called Mrs. Wei over and said, "What are we waiting for?" Mrs. Wei said, "The emperor's grace is mighty, Mrs. Jielie." Both the Emperor and the Empress will come to see you. I'm going to have to get something to eat. As mentioned earlier, Red Whisk stood there straight and waiting to die, and this moment was very long. In the darkness, she waits to meet Death, who seems to be the greatest lover. This is because it is very unfamiliar. Her heart was beating harder and harder, and she couldn't help but move her ass. Mrs. Wei said: Mrs. Jielie, you don't look good. So many people in the audience are watching.
Red Whisk thinks that death is the greatest lover, so she panics. Not only did his face redden, but his hands also trembled. Mrs. Wei comforted her and said: Don't panic, your old man, at this time, everyone is like this. At this time, Hongfu felt that Mrs. Wei was really annoying. The joy of the end of life. She didn't experience it at all. Red Whisk took the rope in his hand, and his heart pounded. She wanted to pull the rope, but her hands didn't listen to the command. Mrs. Wei said: You old man regretted it, didn't you? How many wives and young ladies I have served, and I will regret it when I get here. Do you want me to pull the rope for you? The emperor watched from below. I dare to guarantee with you, you don't dare to pull this rope. Red Whisk said: Pull your light.
The red whisk pulled the handle in his hand, and the platform under his feet collapsed, hanging on his neck. At that moment, his eyes bulged, but he was strangled by the ribbon. Ayasband strangled her chin and her teeth clenched. Mrs. Wei immediately walked over, sniffed her, and said, "Great." Your old man's jade body is clean, and he can ascend straight to the heavenly realm. How does it feel?
Red Whisk said:! My toes are still on the ground! Wei Poyu said: That's it. In this way, the posture is the most chic when it dies. It's time to be longer, don't you have an opinion? How do you feel now?
Red Whisk said, holding his breath. The sound is like a cat meowing. She said again: Why did I change my voice? Mrs. Wei said, everyone is like this. How many stars do you have in your eyes? Two pieces. This means one eye and two eyes. The old woman said, "It's not bad." Slowly it will get more. When you reach nine, it is the time when your old man ascends to heaven. What do you hear? Red Whisk said, no. Quiet. The old woman said that it was still early. When I was about to ascend to heaven, my ears were noisy. Would you like to drink some vinegar? Red Whisk said, don't drink. She found the vinegar too unpalatable. The old woman said, like you, it will take seven days and seven nights if you don't drink vinegar. Red Whisk sighed, not knowing if it was too long or too short.
The old woman called Li Jing's son and daughter (both born to the little wife) to come up, and everyone cried. Some people say, mother, mother, how can you bear it. Daddy is gone, and you leave us alone. Red Whisk was so moved when she heard it that she almost didn't want to die. But Mrs. Wei said: Your mother is not dead yet, it's not good to cry like this. The son immediately said: They are all hanged, who said that they are not dead. When Hongfu heard this, he was immediately unmoved. Then the old woman said, "You all go out." They went out. A group of maids came in, and they were crying fathers and mothers. Red Whisk listened, very impatient, and writhed in mid-air. The old woman pushed everyone else away, and then said: Madam, complaining about the old man is unreasonable, I am going to be crooked on the stage. If you can sleep, you might as well sleep for a while. Tomorrow tastes uncomfortable. After a while, I heard the old woman's snoring. Then I suddenly heard a girl's voice: Mom, Mom! It turned out that the daughter she had given birth to herself had come. The boy said, "Do you regret not listening to me?" Do you want me to get rid of you?
Hongfu said to her daughter: Where have you been, you can't see you all night. What are you doing now? The daughter said, "What are you doing?" I'm here to save you. In the past few days, I have been running around and making appointments with a large number of righteous friends. The daughter said, "I've arranged everything." Don't look at how old you are, you look better than me. Get it out and sell it in the kiln to ensure red. Hongfu was taken aback: Good daughter, you actually want to sell your mother! The daughter said: You don't want to live anyway, why don't you waste it?
According to this account, Red Whisk was called a waste by her daughter simply because she didn't want to live. Of course, she wanted to ask: Who do you want to sell me to? Just sell it to myself. I started a business outside, and the business was not bad. Get you out today, and you'll be mine. Red Whisk said: Wow, thank you. But the daughter said, "Thank you, I was born to you." Red Whisk said: Okay, no more. Let's go. It's better to learn later. The daughter was shocked: "Won't you go with me?"
Later, the daughter persuaded her for a long time, saying that she would never treat Hongfu badly, and promised to give her only good guests ("Don't worry!, not everyone who wants to go to the place where I came out!"), guarantee preferential treatment ("If I am not good to my mother, can other sisters follow me!"), and promise not to abuse ("If you break the rules, you will only be hungry for a few meals, and you will never be beaten."). Can I still beat my mother?"), as a mother, Red Whisk should have been surprised by her daughter's words and actions, but Red Whisk ignored her and gradually became confused.
Despite being hung in mid-air, Red Whisk fell asleep. When she woke up, she felt a little dizzy. In front of her eyes, four stars appeared, and her ears also squeaked. Other than that, she finds herself spinning. So she called Aunt Wei up, and the woman said that it was still very early. There are four stars now, and the ears don't ring badly, so it seems that they can't hold on for seven days and seven nights. Red Whisk said she wasn't talking about these things. She wanted to ask Aunt Wei to stabilize her body and not to turn her. She said she was most afraid of spinning. Mrs. Wei said that she had no way at all, because in her opinion, Duchess Wei hung up well and did not turn around at all. Hongfu said, I'm afraid I'll vomit if I continue like this. Mrs. Wei said, it doesn't matter, she can't spit it out. Red Whisk said she did feel sick. Mrs. Wei said that everyone felt disgusted at this time. It's the middle of the night, and my wife might as well doze off again. Don't keep thinking that you are a living person, it is uncomfortable here, it is uncomfortable there, it is not good. It's much better to think of yourself as a dead man hanging from a beam.
Hongfu thought, if I were a dead person, how could I think about it? This old woman Wei is really confused. But Mrs. Wei yawned, reached out violently, and molested the red whisk. Red Whisk was suspended in the air, unable to struggle. Originally, she didn't have this kind of problem (homosexuality), but now she is in a period of excitement, and she can't help but feel pleasure. After the incident, Hongfu said, "Wei Pozi, you are so bold!" Are you not afraid that I will tell others? Then Wei Pozi said: I am not afraid at all. You don't think that after hanging all night, your voice has changed completely, and it sounds hissing, and no one knows what you say except me. Chick, you're in my hands now. I don't need to be polite to you now. Red Whisk said: I don't need to be polite to you, just like you said, I'm going to die anyway. Mrs. Wei said: Auntie, I am the one who can control the people who want to die. For example, if I hang some ginseng soup, I won't be able to die for ten days or eight days. How many hard-mouthed big girls end up calling me grandma. Hongfu said: Grandma Wei, if I don't die, you can't go home. It's not good for you either. Mrs. Wei said: I don't like to hear grandma, you call Xiao Wei. Red Whisk said: My mother, what's your name!
Mrs. Wei clamped her red body between her legs and said: I want to interrogate you, such a beautiful person, why do you want to seek death. My mom, how good your grow. These legs are straight and miao, and the little belly is so flat. The bottom one by one. You little hoof, you are not honest when you hang yourself! At this time, Red Whisk thought, hanging in the air and flirting with people, this is too bad. At the end of this story, the red whisk fell into the hands of a bad old woman.
Hanging in the air, bored, Red Whisk begins to foresee his future. Wait until someone can't breathe in their nostrils in the mirror, and put her down. At that time, she had just lost her breath, and before she was stiff, she quickly cut the blood vessels and bleed. At the same time, a funnel is inserted into her esophagus and a large amount of mercury is poured. It was poured until the blood vessels were full of mercury, and the mercury sweat appeared on the skin. This way her body can never decay. When Hongfu was alive, he weighed ninety pounds. After pouring mercury, there are more than 800 catties. At this time, she will turn silver-gray, rub her fingers, her fingertips will be gray, look closely, there are many small mercury beads on the fingers, thinking about how heavy she will become and such a color, Hongfu is very uncomfortable. Then he untied the ribbon that bound her eyes, and helped her up to sit down, and at this time she was red, her complexion was like snow, and her eyes were longing, a hundred times brighter than when she was alive. She will sit upright in the mourning hall in this way for all to see. This incident will cause a sensation in the entire Chang'an City, because the death of Li Weigong's wife is definitely great news. From the emperor to the cloth, they all have to come and see. It takes a long time for the mercury to come out of the eyes. To prevent this from happening, on the third day of Redwhisk's death, molten lead was poured into her esophagus. Lead and mercury form an alloy so that mercury doesn't leak out of the eye. When the red whisk heard this, he said, "My mother, you will pour lead into me." But Li Jing's son said, Auntie, you are already a dead person, what are you afraid of. If you don't like it, you can skip the lead. Red Whisk said that if necessary, it would be better to drink a little. Li Jing's son said, "How much do you want to drink?" Hongfu said, "How do I know?" Li Jing's son said that judging from the composition of the lead and amalgam alloys, after drinking two buckets of mercury, you should drink two buckets of lead. Red Whisk couldn't believe that she could drink so much lead, especially after a dozen strong men carried it to her. She also saw many things, including the white cloth in which the dead bodies were wrapped, the coffins in which the dead were slept, the large funnel in which the dead bodies were filled with lead, and the thick needles and threads. There are many cuts on the human body that need to be sewn up after death. When Hongfu saw the needles and threads, she felt very uncomfortable. But she had to say something about these things, none of which could be used if she didn't nod her head, and these things were essential.
I'm about to end the book now, and it's like unraveling a mystery. Li Weigong is already dead, and Hongfu is hanging on the hanging rope, and what happens later is no longer important. The story has been put to an end by the Red Whisk itself. From this, it was concluded that the Red Whisk Martyrs coincided with a time of peace and prosperity, and the leaders explained everything they encountered for the better. At this time, there is a red whisk who wants to die for some unknown reason, and the leaders can also handle it calmly, and regard it as an auspicious thing. I have encountered the same situation, and now there is a king who has proved Fermat's theorem for an unknown reason and by an unknown method, and the leaders also regard it as a good phenomenon, and regard my proof as a result, and I myself as a human being. Living and encountering a peaceful and prosperous world, how happy we (me and Hongfu) are.
