Chapter 14: Let's do a survey first

Wei Qing was a little curious, but he didn't want to ask more.

Today is the first day he and Zhu Ying have met, they are not familiar with each other, and he doesn't know what kind of character Zhu Ying is.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Ying took the initiative to ask:

"Lord Wei, what I have done seems incredible to you, do you also have a lot of doubts?"

Wei Qing replied briskly:

"Yes! I'm curious! However, if it is inconvenient for Childe to say, I will not ask more. ”

"Nothing inconvenient! I need the death row inmates to be willing to participate in this experiment. ”

Wei Qing was puzzled.

But who would risk smallpox and be crushed to death? They are all dying people, and they would rather have a knife to be happy! ”

"You're right! That's why I want them to be willing to participate. If they are forced to be experimenters, those with poor psychological quality may be scared to death during the experiment.

If they are unwilling to cooperate, they may also choose to cut themselves off.

If that is the case, how can we tell whether he died of smallpox virus or not? ”

Only then did Wei Qing understand Zhu Ying's intentions.

"It's still a wise child! However, those death row inmates will eventually die, how can they be willing to participate in such a risky experiment? ”

"You don't have to worry about this, I have my own way. Let's go, take me to a prison with a lot of death row inmates! ”

Zhu Ying packed up and prepared to go.

Wei Qing still didn't quite understand Zhu Ying's thoughts.

However, he is looking forward to what Zhu Ying will do next.

Soon, Wei Qing took Zhu Ying to a prison.

This is a large prison cell in the capital, which houses more than 100 death row inmates.

There were many kinds of punishments in the ancient criminal law, and many prisoners who committed murder and arson, or committed adultery were sentenced to death.

The execution ground is public, and the people can watch it on the spot, and every time the execution is carried out, the execution ground will be surrounded by people watching the excitement.

With the exception of a few prisoners who were to be executed immediately, most of the condemned prisoners were beheaded after the fall.

Because after the autumn harvest, most people are idle, and at this time, the execution of the death penalty has the largest number of people watching the beheading, which has the greatest deterrent effect, which is conducive to social security and stability!

The beheading after the autumn is also the ruler's tolerance in the face of death row prisoners, releasing goodwill for the people of Limin.

It's still spring, and there are a lot of death row inmates in the big jail.

But there are not many days left for them, and unsurprisingly, most of them will not survive this autumn.

Wei Qing was familiar with the various departments of the court, and with a special token and the emperor's handwritten edict in his hand, it was much easier to get things done.

Led by the cell leader, Zhu Ying and Wei Qing entered the courtyard of the cell.

According to Zhu Ying's request, the cell boss asked the jailers to escort out the more than 100 death row inmates.

Most of those death row inmates were middle-aged.

They are usually crammed into a dark, damp and small space, with no sunlight all day long, and their bodies are smelly and dirty.

When they came to the courtyard, they felt the sunshine they had not seen for a long time and breathed fresh air.

At this moment, the chains bound to their hands seemed to be less heavy.

I don't know why they were called, but they were all excited.

"Everyone, be quiet! Young Master Ying has something to say! ”

Wei Qing gave an order, and the death row inmates suddenly quieted down.

They all looked at Wei Qing in unison.

What made them even more curious was the young man next to the person who shouted.

They don't know who he is, but it seems that it's not easy.

Everyone is speculating in their hearts.

"Who is Young Prince? Is it the teenager? ”

"He's still a kid, what are you doing in the prison looking for us death row inmates?"

"What is the identity of that noble-looking young man?"

......

Zhu Ying stepped forward and looked at the group of death row prisoners in front of him with a relaxed expression.

"Don't be nervous, I'll do an investigation first!"

Everyone looked at Zhu Ying.

Wei Qing didn't know what Zhu Ying was going to do next.

Zhu Ying had a plan in his heart, and he shouted loudly:

"Everyone, if your parents are still alive, please come out!"

Death row inmates are curious.

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what the young man's purpose was in saying this.

Only a few people cautiously stepped forward.

Most of the death row inmates have a no-nonsense attitude.

Zhu Ying shouted again:

"If you still have a wife and children and children in the family, please come out!"

This time, only a few people took the initiative to stand up.

Zhu Ying then shouted:

"If you have siblings or other loved ones in the family, please come out!"

Suddenly, someone stepped forward and asked.

"This young man, we are all dying people, what do you want to do to us? Let's get it straight! ”

Zhu Ying smiled coldly and did not answer him.

However, after shouting this time, more than a dozen people came out one after another.

In addition to the two times before, there are now more than 30 people in total.

Zhu Ying knew that this was not enough.

After he explained the purpose of his trip, many people would retreat.

He decided to give them another chance.

"I ask one last time, are there any people who meet one of the three conditions I just mentioned? If so, please get out of the line! ”

The death row inmates didn't know if this was a good thing or a bad thing.

A few people looked at the line in front of them, and they also mustered up their courage and stood up.

Now, there are about 40 death row inmates standing at the front.

Zhu Ying said with a smile:

"I'm here for a particularly important matter to consult with you, and thank you for your participation, you have taken the first step.

Every word I say next is likely to strike you as incredible. However, everything is voluntary. ”

As soon as Zhu Ying's words fell, the death row inmates began to exchange ears.

"Who the hell is this kid? What is he going to do? ”

"He's still a kid, how can he have so much power?!"

"How do I feel that what he's saying isn't like a good thing?"

......

Seeing this, Wei Qing suddenly roared angrily:

"Silence! Listen to Ying Gongzi finish speaking! ”

The men were silent again.

Zhu Ying continued.

"You are also well aware that there is a terrible disease in this world called smallpox.

You all have family members alive, imagine how terrible it would be if they contracted smallpox! ”

Hearing the word "smallpox", everyone's faces changed.

"Don't be nervous, that's what I'm here for! We've found a way to deal with that abominable smallpox, but before we can do that, we need to do some validation.

If the experiment is successful, your family and future generations will be protected from smallpox! ”

Hearing this, the death row inmates all had a bad premonition.

A man with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks suddenly stood up and asked:

"You don't want to use us death row inmates as live targets for experiments, do you?!"
