16. Executions

"Boy, you're going to be executed tomorrow, is there any way to escape?"

Late at night, Humber leaned against the wall and asked casually.

"The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge."

Qin Lan replied with a smile, he respected Hong Bo from the bottom of his heart, and his face was naturally a little less cold.

"You kid......"

Hong Bo smiled and shook his head: "If nothing else, tonight will be the last night for our two masters to get along in this life." ”

"No," Qin Lan said firmly: "What's the matter, I also have to let you see that I fulfill my wish for you." ”

Hong Bo looked stunned, and suddenly a little moved, he didn't expect that a small introduction that he casually said three days ago in order to facilitate his preaching and employment could be remembered so clearly by Qin Lan.

"The completion of Mengtian's secret art cultivation can completely disappear your body from other people's vision for a second, but I believe that you kid must be more than that......

Hong Bo smashed his mouth and sighed: "Your kid's talent is something I have never seen in my life, I can't die in such an unknown place......"

Qin Lan was silent for a long time, facing the wall, and bowed heavily to Hong Bo next door: "The skills taught by the seniors will be used by the juniors for a lifetime, please allow the juniors to call Master, if you can still see each other when you go out in the future, the juniors will be respectful to the seniors as a father!" ”

"You stinky boy......"

Hong Bo laughed and scolded, but tears appeared in the corners of his eyes.

The night was long, Qin Lan and Hong Bo were back to back across the wall, and you and I chatted a lot. Until dawn came, the jailer came in and called for someone

"Qin Lan, a death row prisoner! Come out! ”

is still the jailer who threw food to Qin Lan, his demeanor is arrogant, and his tone is stiff.

Qin Lan came out of the cell calmly, although she was wearing a prison uniform, her body was also neat, and the jailer was unhappy for a while.

"Mad, people who are about to die are still pretending"

The jailer spat with disgust on his face, and the iron chain in his hand rattled Qin Lan out.

Qin Lan glanced at the jailer, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he immediately bowed solemnly towards Hong Bo's cell, until he saw Hong Bo waving his hand, and then continued to walk out.

The jailer outside had been waiting impatiently for a long time, and when he saw Qin Lan and Hong Bo saying goodbye, the chain in his hand was pulled straight.

It's a pity that he can't pull Qin Lan

While he was competing, Qin Lan suddenly unloaded his strength, and the jailer's body staggered forward uncontrollably.

"You ......" The jailer opened his mouth to scold, and he was greeted by Qin Lan's cold eyes.

"I haven't been bothered with you for the past two days because I didn't want to meet you like a scumbag."

Qin Lan's fluttering words brought a chill in the jailer's ears, and although he was in the twilight of spring, he felt like he was falling into an ice cave.

The sky was blue, and the sun was shining a little harshly

Is the sky in the eyes of the condemned prisoner different from that of ordinary people?

Qin Lan narrowed her eyes and looked at the sky, the sky was not pouring rain as the storyteller said.

The breeze is blowing, and there is no fear of the death penalty, only the freedom to see the light of day again.

After being locked up for three days, Qin Lan had enough time in that cell, and when he came out again, the air was sweet.

Qin Lan took a hard breath and walked down the street, the expression on his face was very comfortable, attracting people on the side of the road to point and point.

"This is the murderer Qin Lan, why does he look so comfortable??"

"I'm afraid I'm not stupid in a prison cell, right?"

"Mom, why is that brother being led?"

A little girl with a double ponytail on the side of the street pointed at Qin Lan and asked in a milky voice.

"This bear child, don't point at him, be careful of bad luck!"

The mother next to her reached out and slapped the child's hand away and scolded her fiercely, causing the little girl to sob.

"Go die, the murderer of the old city lord!"

An egg was thrown out of the crowd without warning and smashed towards Qin Lan.

As if a switch had been triggered, the emotions of the crowd were suddenly mobilized. Rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs flew up and began to bombard Qin Lan indiscriminately.

"This one who has received a thousand cuts, hurry up and die!"

"Why don't you die! Old city lord, you dare to kill, you go to hell! ”

Similar vicious words were endless, Qin Lan just spread his hands helplessly, with a few rotten vegetable leaves hanging on his head, and his feet moved slightly, avoiding rotten eggs.

The vegetable leaves are barely okay, but the taste of rotten eggs is definitely not good!

Today is the cleanest of these days, how can it make people dirty.

Qin Lan had a lot of thoughts in his heart, but his face was very calm, and the occasional flash of light in his eyes made the person escorting him feel like a mang, so uncomfortable!

The road from the prison to the execution ground came to an end, and sitting on the judgment table were Yanlong, the four members of the Lu Temple, and a number of officials.

Qin Lan glanced around, but didn't see the familiar shadow, and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

Commander Lin, who was maintaining order in the audience, inadvertently met Qin Lan's gaze, and his head subconsciously lowered down, a little embarrassed.

Of course, Qin Lan also saw Commander Lin under the stage, but he didn't take Commander Lin's decision seriously, from the moment he saw Yanlong sitting in the middle of the judgment seat, he had already guessed the subsequent development of things in his heart.

Looks like we're going to have to bleed a little more today......

Qin Lan sighed softly in his heart, the jailer next to him pressed him to his knees, and the voice of the criminal officer came from the side.

"According to the laws of the Great Xia Dynasty, first clean the body of the death row prisoner!"

I don't know where to pour a bucket of water, dousing Qin Lan with a cold heart, according to theology, the prisoner who is executed must first clean his body, otherwise the ghosts and gods in the underground will not take him in.

"For the face of death row prisoners!"

The two big men beside Qin Lan, one holding a decapitation knife, the other holding a short ridge, the person holding the short ridge held Qin Lan's head and carved the word "prisoner" on the upper left of his forehead

Normally, death row inmates should be blackened when they are in prison, but because Qin Lan's detention time in prison is too short, and Wang Ye's people torture him every day, he has never had the opportunity to make up for his face, and he made up for it when he was executed.

Only the person who engraved the letter, the underground ghosts and gods will know that this is a wicked person, and they must be sent to hell to suffer before they can be reincarnated.

The blood, flowing down his forehead, stained half of Qin Lan's face, at this moment, his eyes were staring at Yanlong, his eyes were cold, no different from the legendary evil ghost who climbed up from hell, Yanlong, who was stared at by him, only felt that his body was cold, and his hair was upside down, he waved his hand impatiently, and hurriedly said:

"Hurry up and execute! There's not much more to say! ”

"Execution!"

The official shouted at the top of his voice, and then ran to find a place to see the excitement.

The head was pressed on the guillotine, and the cold glow on the guillotine was reflected on Qin Lan's neck, Qin Lan was so big that he experienced what it meant to have a cold swish.

Dahan took a sip of wine and sprayed it on the guillotine, took a deep breath, and prepared to slash at Qin Lan's neck.

Now is the best chance to snatch the key from the jailer and then use the secret art of Montennia to escape from the siege.

Qin Lan held her breath, her fists clenched, calculating the time in her heart, ready to burst out at any time.

“3,2,1…………”

"Stop!"

At this moment, a deep voice sounded from the crowd, and the faces of everyone on the stage changed.

The audience below exploded violently, looking for the owner of the voice.

Gradually, the crowd quieted down and consciously moved out of the way.

A middle-aged man dressed in purple brocade, with eyes like torches and a solemn expression, walked out slowly.

It's just that the footsteps are still a little vague, and the sallow face suggests that he has just recovered from a serious illness.

Who could it be if it wasn't the old city lord?

When Yanlong saw the old city lord, his face turned as white as paper, and he couldn't speak well, so he stammered, "Father...... Father? ”

The faces of the people in the Tai Divine Temple were shocked, and Lu Lin shouted in disbelief: "Impossible, the old city lord has already been poisoned by us!" ”

Suddenly, out of the corner of Lu Lin's eyes, he caught a glimpse of Ye Xiaoxiao, who was quietly following behind the old city lord, and his heart suddenly understood.

It's all this girl's hands and feet behind her back!

Lu Lin's eyes were about to erupt, his teeth trembled with anger, and he said word by word: "I should have personally dealt with her at that time!" ”

Seeing the old city lord's recovery, Qin Lan was also relieved, and couldn't help but smile when she saw Ye Xiaoxiao winking at herself behind the old city lord.

What a saintess of Tsing Yi Pavilion, living up to her reputation!

Yanlong stumbled down from the platform, and when he saw it up close, he was sure that the old city lord was really fine, and cold sweat ran down his head

"Father...... Pro"

The old city lord ignored Yanlong and walked quickly to the torture platform and took the key to the soul cuffs from the jailer.

Then under the frightened gaze of everyone, he personally untied the handcuffs for Qin Lan and knelt on half a knee.

"Young Lord forgiveness! The old slave is late! ”

rumble

There was an uproar below, and the people on the stage looked sluggish, wondering if there was something wrong with their ears.

Ye Xiaoxiao's rosy lips gradually opened in the back, and she was also shocked by the scene in front of her.

Just this morning, he once again sneaked into the Yan Mansion to treat the old city lord.

Fortunately, just after the treatment, the old city lord woke up leisurely, and there was still time to save the old city lord, Ye Xiaoxiao simply said the matter, and then remembered what Qin Lan said, and showed the token to the old city lord.

The old city lord's expression changed after seeing it, and he walked to the execution ground without thinking about it.

Qin Lan, how many secrets does this guy still have......

Ye Xiaoxiao's expression was complicated, and he glanced at Qin Lan deeply

Qin Lan stood up, rubbed his wrists, and chuckled:

"Uncle Yan, why are you still so polite, what age is it, don't talk about those old dogmas"

The old city lord's face turned slightly red because of excitement, and he said in a trembling voice: "There has been no news of the young master for so many years, and the old slave is worried day and night." ”

"Let's talk about the old things later, and solve the current troubles first."

Qin Lan restrained her smile and handed the cell key to Ye Xiaoxiao behind her

"Ye Xiaoxiao, I want you to do two things, one is to go to the prison to rescue Hong Fu who lives next door to me, and the other is to go to Yanfu to find Yanjun, if he is not dead, he will be rescued quickly."

"I'm addicted?"

Ye Xiaoxiao glanced at Qin Lan, with anger on her pretty face, but there was no ink on her hand, she took the key and left quickly.

I'll be able to free my hands and feet a little bit when you get out of here

Qin Lan looked at Ye Xiaoxiao's distant back and thought in her heart, her eyebrows seemed to be a lot easier, he took Ye Xiaoxiao, why didn't he want her to stay away from this battle.

Qin Lan's words did not shy away from Yanlong, Yanlong's face changed, and he hurriedly shouted to Wang Ye below:

"Captain Wang, quickly send someone to stop them!"

Wang Ye's face was also very ugly, knowing the stakes, with a wave of his hand, the people of the Wild Wolf Regiment had to quickly chase towards Ye Xiaoxiao, Qin Lan saw this and shouted in a deep voice to Commander Lin: "Commander Lin, if you don't get rid of the thief at this time, when will you stay!?" ”

Qin Lan's voice exploded in Commander Lin's ears like thunder, as if he had just woken up from a big dream, and Commander Lin immediately reacted and shouted:

"All the defenders obey the order! Stop the Wolf Mercenaries! ”

"Yes!"

The armor on the defenders shook, and the sound echoed throughout the execution ground.
