Volume IX, Chapter 26: Rebirth
This is the Jinyang City Prison.
Shen Xia didn't feel good right now.
The officialdom of Jinyang is very corrupt, but unexpectedly, the executioner is a loyal person.
Ironically, Shen Xia likes to torture others with vicious methods, watching people struggle and wail before they die, which will bring her perverted pleasure.
But when an ordinary whip was drawn on her, she let out a scream like a pig.
The whip of the little official stopped in mid-air, and he wondered in his heart - was the old woman curled up in the corner, crying and begging for mercy, really the demon who had killed countless people?
It turns out that she can only beat people, but she will not be beaten.
After eating the killing stick, Shen Xia was thrown into this separate death row, hundreds of pounds of heavy shackles locked her firmly, and there was a Dingqin Divine Crossbow at the door to point at her vital point at all times.
She had already predicted her fate - after the Beijing Criminal Department saw her guilt, the notice of beheading would be issued immediately, and that was the date of her death.
The short is three to five days, and the longest is half a month.
Shen Xia began to be afraid, and the threat of death made her tremble.
And she knows that what is more terrifying than death is not knowing when death will come.
"Bang bang ......" There was a knock on the door of the cell, and Shen Xia and the jailer were stunned.
It's obviously not time to deliver the meal, who is coming?
"Squeak-" The door opened, and in came the little man who delivered the food, and the smell wafted from the barrel in his hand.
"Hello two big brothers." The food delivery officer nodded, and then lifted the barrel in his hand:
"Tell me to deliver the guillotine."
The jailer nodded, pointed his chin, and motioned for the servant to enter.
At the same time, the jailer muttered in his heart - when did the efficiency of the criminal department become so fast?
With a "click", the wooden barrel was placed in front of Shen Xia, and the little official opened the lid:
"Braised beef, vegetarian three fresh, big white steamed buns, and half a pot of wine, let's eat."
Although Shen Xia had already met her own death, she did not expect the trial to come so quickly.
Shen Xia grabbed the chopsticks, but her hand kept trembling and fell to the ground with a snap.
Through the arm-thick iron bar, the little official picked up the chopsticks for Shen Xia and handed them over:
"Eat quickly, eat enough and go on the road, and be reincarnated as a good person in the next life......"
"Shut up!" Shen Xia screamed, startling the little official, and sat down on the ground.
Shen Xia was emotional, her voice trembling and sharp:
"Good guys? Who is strange to be a good person in Raushzi! Grandma, after I am reincarnated, I will kill people in the next life, and I will kill you stinky men, you can't escape! I can't even run! ”
The shrill screams echoed through the cramped death row, and the two jailers frowned, exchanged glances, and then walked out together, and the jailer who went out later explained:
"Let her eat quickly, we are outside, remember to shout if there is anything."
"Yes, yes, yes." The little man who delivered the meal responded with a smile.
After Shen Xia screamed hysterically for a while, he picked up a piece of beef and brought it to Shen Xia's mouth:
"Come, I'll feed you, I'll be scolded if you can't finish eating."
The screaming stopped abruptly, Shen Xia looked at the beef in her mouth, and was stunned for a moment - it was obviously just braised pork fried casually by ordinary cooks, and a large plate could be bought for less than a hundred wen outside, but in Shen Xia's opinion at this moment, it was the most delicious delicacy in the world.
No one who has eaten rotten vegetables and rancid rice for three days in a row can resist the piece of beef in his mouth.
Shen Xia ate one bite at a time, and the little official was still very skilled, feeding her three or five yuan, and he would use wine to eat smoothly for her.
When half of a plate of braised beef was eaten, Shen Xia suddenly cried out for no reason:
"Woooooooooo......oo Why? Why? Woowoo woo ......"
The little official paused in his hand and asked:
"Do you have any last wishes?"
Shen Xia sobbed:
"But the man of the Covenant of the White Head became a complete gambler, and I sold all the treasures I had obtained from the robbery, but I could not make up for the huge debt he had made in the gold cave, and then the house was taken away, and he sold me to the kiln, and after a few years I ransomed myself with the money I had saved, and when I returned home, I found that my daughter was also ......."
A twisted pain appeared on Shen Xia's terrifying face:
"From that day on, I went crazy, I chopped him into meat sauce and fed it to the dogs, but so what? Who gave me my daughter back, woo woo woo ......"
Her expression suddenly became terrifying:
"It's him! It was this man who had miserable my life, and even if I killed all the stinky men in the world, it would be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart! ”
She laughed maniacally:
"Hahaha...... The life of the dog man is mine, the gold and silver mountains are mine, and the peerless martial arts are also mine...... Grandma, my miraculous skills are world-famous, and longevity is the same as heaven! ”
The clerk picked up a piece of beef:
"I know, I know, let's eat first, if you don't eat it, it will be cold."
Shen Xia was shocked, her expression froze on her face, and the pain, hatred, and ambition that had grown in her heart for decades were washed away by the heat of this piece of beef.
The beef was swallowed, fell into the stomach, and turned into despair.
Her eyes were blank and she muttered:
"It's really over."
The little official squatted down:
"Have you eaten enough? It's over when you're full. ”
Shen Xia sat on the ground, motionless.
"Shen Xia." A voice that would never appear here rang in Shen Xia's ears violently.
Shen Xia raised her head in shock.
The person outside the bars was obviously still wearing the clothes of the food delivery officer, but his face changed to a different look.
"It's you!" Shen Xia sat back, and then desperately crawled backwards.
The man's voice also changed completely, becoming low and full of majesty:
"Shen Xia, you forgot the agreement between us."
Shen Xia shrank in the corner and looked at the person outside the door, who just looked at Shen Xia quietly outside the iron fence and didn't say anything, but Shen Xia had already begun to tremble unconsciously.
She remembered that when she was caught stealing the Holy Tomb of Sanqing, it was this person who came forward to save herself; His own terrifying blood corpse technique was also taught by him personally; He went on a killing spree in the brothel where he once sold himself, and there were ninety-one lives, even Qin Lin was alarmed, and in the end, it was the person in front of him who carried it for him......
The person in front of him always looks calm and light, and any trouble will become insignificant in his hands, and it seems that everything can be done with the movement of his fingers.
Conventions? Shen Xia remembered her agreement with him - she used the art of Kanyu to find the gold mine, and Sanqing was responsible for providing manpower and helping her to form a force, but the income from the gold mine, Sanqing Sect only needed 30%.
It's a fair price, and it's no different from giving it away for free
But she forgot one thing - free things are often the most expensive.
The man spoke again:
"Thirty percent, a total of seven hundred and thirty thousand taels, what about silver?"
Shen Xia lowered her head:
"Lost ......"
"Oh-" the man suddenly realized:
"I lost it, did I lose anything else?"
This sentence reminded Shen Xia, and she mustered up the courage to stand up:
"The Criminal Department is already going to cut off my head, and my life is going to be lost, so you can only do this if you ask for the guilt."
The man understood:
"Hehe, there's nothing wrong but death, so you're fearless, aren't you?"
Shen Xia did not answer.
The next moment, the man grabbed the iron bar, which was wrist-thick and bent by him lightly, and then he got into the death row
He showed this magic skill, but Shen Xia didn't care, but stood up:
"Well, it's not bad to die at your hands, let's do it."
Then she closed her eyes.
After a few sounds, Shen Xia's hand loosened, and she opened her eyes in surprise.
The man slapped her on the shoulder, and the acupuncture points that she couldn't break through before were opened all at once, and the internal force flowed from the dantian to the limbs, and the powerful power returned to her body again.
Shen Xia looked up in amazement, not knowing the other party's intentions.
The human:
"Shen Xia, two choices. First, you will escape by yourself and find me 730,000 taels of silver within half a month. Second ......"
"I'll pick two." Shen Xia interrupted him.
"Oh?" The man asked:
"Dare to choose without even listening?"
Shen Xia saluted:
"That's what I command."
The man nodded in satisfaction:
"I want you dead."
Shen Xia raised her head in disbelief, and then her eyes went dark.
…………
Shen Xia woke up again and found herself lying on a bamboo mat.
"Awake?" A voice came from the side.
Shen Xia followed the sound and saw that the man had changed out of the clothes of the food delivery officer and turned his back to him.
The man held the book and read it carefully, without even lifting his eyelids:
"Half an hour ago, Shen Xia was beheaded at the entrance of the vegetable market on Jinyang East Street."
Shen Xia sat up, a little ignorant.
The man's tone was indifferent:
"Shen Xia is dead, your name is Bixia now."
Shen Xia already understood what was happening, and she bowed down.
The man said:
"Do something with me here, and someone in Xuzhou will pick you up after a while."
Bixia nodded silently.
And the man said:
"Without my order, you can't act rashly, especially not to trouble Li Mujiang, understand?"
Bixia was puzzled:
"But my money ......"
"Huh?"
Bixia immediately lowered her head:
"But your money has been snatched away by that little slut, won't we get it back?"
The man shook his head:
"No one dares to attack her now."
Bixia Daqi:
"With your martial arts, are they all ......?"
The man put the book down and rubbed his brow, but instead of stretching it, it tightened it:
"Can you do everything by force in this world?"
Yes, definitely. Bixia had already given an answer in her heart, but she asked:
"What do you think?"
The man smiled contemptuously:
"If that's the case, then the emperor of Great Qin should be the number one master in the world, but he is just a young man who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it."
Bixia silently lowered her head.
The man continued:
"Since he can defeat you, Li Mujiang naturally has some skills, regardless of martial arts and resourcefulness, he can be regarded as the best among his peers, but in my eyes, he is no different from grass mustard."
The man stood up with his hands behind his back:
"But her grandfather is very difficult, if we deal with Li Mujiang again, what will that old thief do, none of us can guess......"
He looked up at the sky, his eyes solemn:
"When it comes to the unpredictable, you should always be vigilant."
Bixia thought for a moment and bowed down and said:
"Yes, sir."
The man turned his head sharply and looked at Bixia with an extremely cold gaze.
Bixia's body shook, and this gaze made her tremble, even when Li Mujiang's mourning demon almost killed her.
She knew she had made a mistake, a serious mistake.
She knelt down:
"Yes, Lord."
