Chapter 211: The Punishment of Cannon Burning
After Wu Zixu left the palace of King Wu, he went to the prison non-stop to interrogate the four key criminals who dared to assassinate Qingji.
"Smack!"
"Uhh
The leather whip struck the prisoner's body again and again, and suddenly the skin and flesh opened, and the red blood mixed with sweat soaked most of the prison clothes.
With each two lashes, the interrogation guard would ask aloud: "Do you want to say it?" ”
"Who instructed you to assassinate the king?"
"Say!"
"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! ”
The jailer whipped three times in a row, and the prisoner gritted his teeth, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his green tendons bulged, but he didn't say a word, nor screamed, just snorted.
It's a hard bone!
Seeing this, Wu Zixu, the court lieutenant sitting on the side, couldn't help but shake his head.
At this moment, the CRRC Mansion ordered Jiao to slip under the opening of several temple people and slowly entered the prison.
"Tingwei."
"Why did the CRRC government order come here?"
"The king ordered you to try this case with Tingwei, and the following is the jury, and Tingwei is the main trial."
After all, it is a major matter of assassinating the king, and it is impossible for Wu Zixu to be fully responsible alone, so it is natural to let Qingji's close ministers, CRRC Mansion order Jiao Slip as a jury, so that the progress of the case can be reported to Qingji at any time.
"Captain Ting, have you ever interrogated the people behind these assassins?"
Looking at the prisoner who was tied to the cross, whipped and still silent, a look of disgust appeared on his smooth and white face.
"Not yet."
Wu Zixu shook his head and said: "These people are obviously well-trained assassins, or they are burdened by fame and fortune, and they don't dare to reveal the identity of the people behind the scenes. ”
"Ordinary torture does not make a confession."
"How should that be?"
Wu Zixu did not panic at all, and after thinking about it secretly, he asked the four assassins to be sent to the torture prison.
Of the four people, two had already been tortured, so they were covered in bruises, and they only had half a breath left.
Wu Zixu glanced at it, his gaze fixed on a young man's face, and he couldn't help but shrink his pupils sharply, feeling surprised!
The young man that the king wants to take for his own use, isn't he?
You shouldn't be wrong.
Because among the four assassins, only Zhu Ziyu can really be called a teenager!
When Wu Zixu stared at Zhuziyu, the latter had already recognized Wu Zixu.
"It's you?"
Seeing Wu Zixu, Zhu Ziyu was also quite surprised, and immediately sneered and said, "Uncle Wu, I haven't seen you for a long time. My father and the former king were really blind back then, and they actually regarded you as a generation of heroes? ”
"Come to think of it, they didn't expect that your soldiers would be such a forgetful man for profit, a traitor for glory, and a wolf-hearted dog!"
"The first king treated you well, and now you have turned your back on the first king, is there no shame in your heart? You've become a jealous eagle dog......"
"Shut up!"
Wu Zixu frowned and shouted.
Seeing this, Zhuziyu just sneered vigorously and remained silent.
After hearing Zhu Ziyu's remarks on the side of the glue slippery, he couldn't help but look at Wu Zixu with a suspicious look.
"Tingwei, do you know him?"
"He's after the old man."
"The deceased? I hope that Tingwei will not show favoritism, because of small losses. ”
"Please also rest assured that the CRRC government order."
Wu Zixu's eyes reflected a resolute light, and said: "Today's soldiers are no longer the soldiers of the past!" ”
Subsequently, Wu Zixu ordered the jailer to escort Zhu Ziyu and another prisoner back to the cell.
The remaining two prisoners continued to be tied to the cross, anxiously awaiting their imminent fate.
The glue slipper on the side was also very curious to watch.
How will Wu Zixu interrogate these two hard-headed criminals?
Seeing Wu Zixu explain a few words to the jailer, he stepped forward slowly, glanced at the two prisoners, and said, "Two, do you confess or not?" ”
Hearing this, the two prisoners just glared at Wu Zixu with disdain, looking like they would rather die than give in.
"Come on, put on the torture instrument!"
As soon as Wu Zixu waved his hand, several jailers immediately brought a pot of red-hot charcoal fire to the side, and then put two soldering iron tips.
But seeing Wu Zixu, he said with a smile: "Ben Tingwei admires you, and he was flogged and unmoved. But I don't know that there are many kinds of torture, so why can't I extract a confession? ”
"I advise you to be more sensible and avoid the pain of flesh and skin."
The two prisoners remained unmoved.
Wu Zixu's face sank, and he said, "I don't know if the two of you know the punishment of cannon branding?" ”
"In the past, the people were resentful and the princes had provocateurs, so they were severely punished, and there was a method of cannon branding. Cannon branding, that is, oil is applied to the copper pillar, and charcoal is added to heat it, so that the guilty person walks on it, and burns him alive in the coals! ”
"You don't want to end up like this, do you?"
Hearing this, the two prisoners couldn't help but be frightened, but they still gritted their teeth and glared at Wu Zixu.
"Soldier, if you are still a son of man, why do you inflict this torture on us?"
"You're not human!"
Both of them looked at Wu Zixu with hatred.
Seeing this, Wu Zixu just sneered, and then picked up the burning red soldering iron head, and swayed back and forth on the faces of the two prisoners, the high temperature emitted by the soldering iron head was so hot that a burst of sweat broke out on their faces, I don't know if it was hot or scared!
"W-"
"Ahh
Wu Zixu, who didn't talk about martial arts, suddenly pressed the hot soldering iron head on a prisoner's abdomen, which immediately made the latter let out a terrible howl like killing a pig.
The other prisoner couldn't help but swallow when he saw his companion's miserable condition.
"Soldiers! Lao Tzu won't let you go if you're a ghost! ”
The prisoner who was burned by the head of the soldering iron still endured the pain and cursed Wu Zixu loudly.
Wu Zixu sneered, picked up the soldering iron again, and pressed it on the prisoner's chest.
"W-"
"Ahhhh
Once again, the screams resounded throughout the cell.
"Are you recruited?"
“……”
The prisoner who was tossed in this way was already in pain and couldn't help himself, grinning his teeth, and he couldn't speak.
Seeing this scene, Wu Zixu was not in a hurry at all, and then took the soldering iron head that was still warm, came to another prisoner, and asked, "What about you?" Recruit or not? ”
The prisoner remained silent.
However, Wu Zixu had already seen through his eyes the fear that was difficult to hide in his heart!
Wu Zixu just smiled indifferently, and said: "Little brother, I can assure you that as long as you confess to the people behind the scenes, I can protect your life, and let you be prosperous and rich all your life, and you will be inexhaustible!" ”
"How much money can the people behind your scenes give you? Or do you have any levers to coerce it? ”
Hearing this, the prisoner just gritted his teeth and said, "Soldier, I don't know anything!" If you want to kill, you will kill, why say more! ”
