Chapter 233, Small Means
When Li Chengjing walked out of the dungeon, the underground, which used to make strange noises all the time, was quiet and weird at the moment, as if there were no living people below.
"Mr. Zhaoguan?" The head of the cell came up and screamed cautiously, his eyes kept looking at the death row underground.
Li Chengjing smiled: "They are too noisy, so I will let them calm down." ”
Although Li Chengjing said this, but when he left, the cell boss still couldn't wait to go into the ground, under the reflection of the torches, in the prison, one by one death row prisoners were really lying all over the ground, the cell head hurriedly let people go in to check, and found that these death row prisoners were just asleep, not dead.
Thanks to the fact that these death row inmates were all unkempt and extremely dim underground, so that the jailers did not notice, these death row inmates seemed to have been drained of their spirits one by one.
Now all that's left is the power to breathe.
These death row inmates were supposed to be mortal people, but they couldn't die in the hands of him Li Chengjing, so Li Chengjing didn't completely drain the essence of these death row inmates, but still left some of them, so that they wouldn't die immediately.
However, there is not much essence left, and it is estimated that even if they are not beheaded, the people inside will only have about half a year to a year of life.
When the two or five essences are exhausted, they will die violently.
It's just a pity that because he wants to spare their lives, Li Chengjing only refined some Shou Dan, but couldn't use them to refine the Root Bone Pill.
Because the Root Bone Pill needs to extract the human marrow, essence and blood, etc., without these things, people will definitely die.
Mu Jiao followed Li Chengjing's side, her nose twitching and her brows furrowed.
He still asked Li Chengjing with a strong smell of blood.
"You're a Jiao, not a dog!" Although Li Chengjing turned his back to this female Jiao, it was as if he had eyes behind him, and he knew her small movements clearly.
Silk suddenly wanted to roll her eyes.
"If there is a next time, I will pluck the scales from your whole body, and then insert dog hair, and make you a real dog!"
The whole body trembled, and he hurriedly lowered his head, burying the hatred in his heart, and did not dare to show a little.
Li Chengjing, who had refined Shou Dan, ate two to replenish his little life soil, and went to the torture room.
For the current Li Chengjing, Shou Dan is the most important thing, and the Root Bone Pill is not necessary.
Before it is difficult to find a large number of mountain bandits and other materials that can replenish the essence of the two or five essences, death row prisoners are undoubtedly the most convenient and fast.
Although these death row inmates are all short-lived people in terms of life count, the number of life numbers does not affect the number of two or five essences.
A normal person, the difference between the two and five essences is not big, determines a person's life and death, the two or five essences only occupy a part of the factors, just to the two people who are dying, some people in their sixties should meet the mandate of heaven, and some people can live over 100 years old, this kind of is because of the difference in the number of their two or five essences, in the course of a person's life, maybe in some places to consume more two or five essence, and some people make mistakes, and add some.
And death row prisoners, people who have died horizontally, their deaths are affected by the number of lives, that is, death death.
As the so-called king of Hades let people die in the third watch, and he did not dare to keep people until the fifth watch, this is what it means.
Buddhism talks about cause and effect, Taoism follows the way of heaven, everything a person does in life may affect his own life, so many people will say that the cycle of cause and effect is unpleasant.
Therefore, death row prisoners are simply the best pill for Li Chengjing.
There are only a dozen death row inmates, which is still too small for Li Chengjing's increasingly large number.
But there are death row inmates every year, and Li Chengjing decided that it is best to get the rights of the torture room as much as possible.
After leaving the cell, Li Chengjing went directly to the torture room, ready to do this errand well.
Different from Li Chengjing's idle work, in fact, the workload of the torture room is still very large, but it is all trivial things.
Either Zhang Sanjia stole Li Sijia's farm tools, or Li Sijia's field occupied Zhang Sanjia's land.
Li Chengjing really can't be interested in these lawsuits, and he doesn't have to worry about them.
The torture chamber has long had a set of very effective work processes and trial methods.
Li Chengjing should experience the red dust, and the whole person is like a statue in the shrine, sitting in the torture room, not asking much about things, but just not leaving.
With such a Shangguan here, the history of the torture room did not dare to touch the fish or receive any benefits, and tried the cases meticulously one by one.
This made the people who are familiar with these people's temperaments almost think that they have gone to the wrong door.
After Zhao Longhu came back, his attitude towards Li Chengjing could be said to have taken a 180-degree turn.
This made the people in the torture room even more afraid to offend Li Chengjing.
At noon, Li Chengjing left the torture room with the silk.
A group of people immediately surrounded Zhao Longhu.
"Team leader, what is the origin of this recruit, so that you don't dare to offend?"
Zhao Longhu sounded the advice of his cheap brother-in-law, waved his hand and said, "You don't need to know, just remember, don't offend him." Later, I became familiar with his temperament and followed the hair. During this time, just take less benefits, don't let him find an excuse to clean you up, and I won't be able to protect you when the time comes. ”
A group of people suddenly frowned, gloomy and gloomy.
The filial piety money of those lawsuits, the county magistrate can't look down on it, but they, the little officials, can live by the money.
Now that he is not allowed to accept it, Li Chengjing suddenly fell to the side of the enemy in the hearts of these people.
Seeing the appearance of these little officials, Zhao Longhu was proud.
I can't use the means on the surface, but this kind of little trick is still harmless, even if Li Chengjing knows, there is no way, I can't let Li Chengjing tell the people below, don't care about him, although greedy, right?
"Let's go, let's go to dinner first, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, then Li Changming is a recruiting official, whether he is a prisoner or not, I don't believe it, he stays here every day." Zhao Longhu saw that his goal had been achieved, and opened his mouth to persuade him.
But just when everyone was about to go to dinner, they saw Xiao Er and a few men with food boxes outside the torture room, nodding and showing a flattering smile.
"Oh, everyone, where are you going!"
Everyone immediately recognized that this was a guy from the nearby Jinhua Building.
Zhao Longhu frowned and said, "Isn't this Tuersun?" It's lunch break now, so I don't take the case, and I'll come back in the afternoon if I have something. ”
Tuersun is a local Turkish boy, and said with a smile: "Master Zhao, you don't look like an official like me." That's the case, let's recruit the official and send someone to let us order a meal in Jinhualou, and let us send it to the torture room during our lunch break. ”
When everyone heard this, they suddenly felt a sense of brightness.
Zhao Longhu naturally didn't dare to thin Li Chengjing's face, so he could only let Tuersun come in, and hard dishes were served, filling the two tables.
Seeing that the meal was complete, Tuersun continued: "Master Zhaoguan still has something to say. Said that the lunch break is on duty, it is not suitable to drink, and in the evening, the banquet has been set up in Jinhua Building, and then please be able to come, the wine is enough! ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, there are still some to be sent to the cell, and those masters will be sent over, and the villain will retreat first."
When Tuersun went out, everyone looked at Zhao Longhu, and no one dared to serve it, so they could only look at the delicacies with all the color and flavor, and secretly swallow their saliva.
God is pitiful, these little officials like to be greedy for some silver, but those small money can't afford them to eat and drink like this every day.
At the price of Jinhua Building, it would be good for them to be able to go once a month.
Zhao Longhu found that everyone was looking at him, frowned and said, "Look at what I'm doing, eat!" ”
Zhao Longhu, who knows how to win people's hearts, knows that if these people are not allowed to eat, they must pay for them to eat similar things, otherwise they will leave pimples in the hearts of these people, and they will backfire on themselves.
It has been like this since ancient times, ascending to Mien, fighting Mi hate.
The smart Zhao Longhu would not commit such a low-level stupid thing.
Sure enough, as the old saying goes, take people softly, eat people with short mouths.
When Li Chengjing returned to the torture room in the afternoon, both the classics and the lowest-level white servants were much more enthusiastic, although they had not yet come up to lick it, but they also lacked the obvious hostility and sense of distance in the morning.
Especially Zhen Jinyan, he secretly sent a pot of tea, and then whispered Zhao Longhu's words at noon to Li Chengjing.
Qian Silk glanced at this Zhen Jinyan, full of contempt.
This person is obviously here to show loyalty, and it seems that in Zhao Longhu's place, this person is not reused.
However, the silk understands very well, if you have such a big mouth by your side, it's strange if you don't shoot it to death, and you still reuse it?
Not long after sending Zhen Jinyan away, Jiao Zuowen came here and chatted with Li Chengjing to see if Li Chengjing liked the job.
Li Chengjing praised Master Jiao for being exquisite, and found him such a job that he liked very much.
Master Jiao laughed.
I thought in my heart: "If this Zhao Longhu wasn't Dai Mao's cheap brother-in-law, he would have asked him to let this torture room official out to Li Chengjing." ”
But it's just like this, what the priest said is good, he is the head of the torture room, just an official. For a master like Li Chengjing, let him be an official, it is simply no different from pouring dung.
When Master Jiao was about to leave, Li Chengjing smiled and said: "I have already set up a banquet in Jinhua Building tonight, if Master Jiao has time, after the government is dispersed, you might as well join us." It's fun with the people! ”
Master Jiao agreed.
Suddenly, the eyes of the scribes who heard these words lit up.
What a good opportunity to tie up at this time.
The county lord is too big, and he may be transferred away at any time and replaced by a new person, unless someone is willing to take him away.
The main book can be different.
It is the so-called iron master book, the county of flowing water.
It is very likely that these people will work with a master book all their lives, and who doesn't want to be close to the master book and make themselves the master bookkeepers.
Li Chengjing glanced at the prison officer who seemed to have eaten stimulants, and said with a smile: "The platform has been set up for you, whether you can grasp it or not depends on yourself." ”
Everyone's eyes lit up, and they shouted in unison: "Thank you, Master Zhaoguan!" ”
Some people died, but not completely......
