After the rain, the breath of Raozhou is particularly fresh, a few white clouds float in the blue sky, reflecting the warm wind and sun of 'spring', the grass and trees after the earth returns to 'spring', and the grass and trees are full of green.

In such a beautiful scenery, Raozhou is boiling, and the people are rushing to the entrance of the vegetable market.

The government invited two of the most famous butchers in Raozhou City, but these two butchers did not kill pigs and dogs, they were specialized in killing people, and there were executioners in all prefectures and counties, but the executioners were also divided into three, six, nine and so on.

The density of human bones is very large, if a knife is cut to the bone, the head of the person will not fall if it is not a treasure knife, even if it is as strong as an ox, he may not dare to say that he will be cut off with a knife.

Being an executioner does not mean that you dare to kill people; the skill of an executioner to kill people cannot be accomplished without three or five years of hard work; therefore, the position of an executioner is mostly assumed by a highly experienced butcher. Of course, since this butcher is responsible for killing, then he should also become a full-time executioner who kills people.

Of course, the apprentice taught by the executioner can still kill livestock, but it is impossible to say whether the master is the master behind the knife.

The middle-level executioner is best at not only cutting off the head, but Ling Chi. The criminal law of Ling Chi has a long history in the Chinese Dynasty. The specific origin of the criminal law is not detailed here. The criminal law of Ling Chi is very particular. The executioner uses a knife to cut off the skin and flesh of the prisoner. It is necessary to cut the whole body with 3,600 knives, and the last knife can result in the prisoner's 'life'.

If the prisoner's bloodline is cut, the prisoner will not be able to sustain 3,600 knives, so the torturer needs to know the bloodline of the human body very well, otherwise he cannot be called a master murderer.

If we talk about the highest state of the executioner, it is to remove all the flesh and blood of the prisoner at tea time, and the same is the last knife to result in 'sexual' life, and the same is the appearance of a pair of bones.

Da Kui knew in his life, and only Meng Ge could reach the highest level of killing, and he couldn't find a top executioner at the moment, and he could only find two generals who killed pigs.

Drinking tea on the prison beheading platform, Da Kui felt a little weak in his heart, he had killed countless people in his life, but if Ling Chi said that today was really the first time in his life that he had seen it, he didn't even dare to eat breakfast in the morning, so he went to try the case.

In Yingtian, King Wu had a secret decree that all officials who embezzled more than 10,000 bribes would be executed at Ling Chi. Officials who embezzled more than 1,000 bribes would be 'cramped'. Officials who embezzled more than 100 bribes were beheaded in half. Da Kui knew the result in advance, but he still asked Raozhou to arrest Fan Sizheng to understand.

(PS: Historical records: Zhu Yuanzhang in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, he had a great deal of rectification of the rule of officials, until his grandson Jianwen Emperor ascended the throne, officials who embezzled more than 60 taels were sentenced to Ling Chi to death, some of them only greedy for three or five taels or even a few strings of copper coins, but they could not escape the doom.

At this time, Fu Tailai, the envoy of Jiangxi Yan, Yin Pan Ke, the master of Raozhou Prefecture, Ma Cuishan, and Li Mazi, Pan Cao's henchmen, had already experienced Ming Zheng's body and tied up on the stake to wait for execution.

Da Kui already had a plan in his heart, but he didn't know what the effect would be after the implementation. If it failed, then more than 100,000 taels of silver would be gone.

In order to prevent mutations, Da Kui specially ordered the city defense soldiers and horses to surround the scene with 1,000 foot soldiers, and only ten of the fifty relatives he brought with him were left around. The remaining forty were all guarding in the Wu Mansion.

In addition to the ten relatives around him, there is still Fan Si by his side, at this time, Fan Sizheng is in order to show that he has drawn a clear line with Pan Cao and the others, and actively arranges the law field and arranges the executioner.

In the past, he was still a colleague, but now he wishes that Pan Cao and others are dying.

It was three o'clock in the afternoon, and the two middle-aged executioners entered the court with two apprentices. The four of them were all fiery red. The two apprentices were both seventeen or eighteen years old. Each of them carried a tray, which was covered with a red cloth.

Da Kui motioned for Fan Sizheng to start.Fan Sizheng walked over and asked, "My lord, who should start first?"

Da Kui smiled: "Let's start with Li Mazi and Master Ma, only remove the skin of one arm, and then wait for the fall." Fan Sizheng was ordered to set it up.

The four wooden stakes on the execution table were exactly two by two, Pan Cao and Li Mazi were opposite, Fu Tailai was opposite Ma Cuishan, so that Pan Cao and Fu Tailai could see the living execution process, which was also deliberately arranged by Da Kui.

Seeing the lively people, the surrounding areas of the Dharma Field were crowded into water, and the trees and houses around the Dharma Field were also crowded with people.

Da Kui looked carefully at them one by one, and found nothing abnormal, so he sat on the Taishi chair and waited for the execution.

The two executioners came to the stage and came to Ma Cuishan and Li Mazi respectively. The two apprentices were also waiting with a tray in one hand. The two executioners respectively uncovered the red silk on the tray.

The executioner turned around again and looked at the prison beheading platform.Da Kui took the arrow and threw it off the stage.With the sound of three cannons.The executioner loosened one arm of Ma Cuishan and Li Mazi respectively.Then grabbed the arm with both hands and twisted and pulled.The arm joints of Ma Cuishan and Li Mazi were unloaded with a 'click'.

This is to ensure that the prisoner cannot 'mess' during the execution, so as to cause the knife to deviate and hurt the blood.

The two executioners are the same action, one hand holds the prisoner's arm, the other hand takes a sharp blade and sandwiches it between the two fingers of the food, the blade is inward, the hand holding the knife is on the prisoner's arm and slowly moves downward.

With the executioner's movements, I saw that Ma Cuishan and Li Mazi's tortured arms were already dripping with blood. The executioner held the knife and slashed to the bowl, stopped, changed a knife on the tray, and wiped it along the shoulders of Ma Cuishan and Li Mazi's arms.

Next, the executioner grabbed the wound on the upper end of the prisoner's arm with his left hand, and cut the human skin from the flesh and blood little by little with the knife in his right hand.

Ma Cuishan and Li Mazi just let out a muffled cry of "woo" in their throats; they couldn't move their bodies and couldn't speak; no matter how they shouted, it was useless; no one would have the slightest sympathy. The onlookers were just a few people who couldn't bear to look at it anymore and lowered their heads. But there were still many people who stretched their necks and stared at the execution.

Da Kui couldn't help but ask Fan Sizheng behind him: "Bleeding like this, will the criminal law seriously hurt 'sex' life?"

Fan Sizheng smiled and said: "Don't worry, my lord, these two masters are very good, even if they are able to carry out the criminal law of Ling Chi, they are all measured, don't you worry, don't you see that the prisoners don't faint when you see such an execution."

When Da Kui heard this, he suddenly realized, so he didn't say anything anymore and paid attention to the movements on and off the stage.

The executioner peeled off the skin on Ma Cuishan and Li Mazi's tortured arms, but the human skin was connected to the wrists, and the executioner cut from the palm of his hand, and the skin on the prisoner's hands was also removed little by little.

Seeing this, Da Kui ordered the two relatives to go to the execution table, grabbed Pan Cao and Fu Tailai's hair and forced them to raise their heads, until they peeled off all the skin on the arms of Ma Cuishan and Li Mazi who were tortured.

The craftsmanship of the two executioners is first-class, and the human skins peeled off have not been broken or damaged, but the two human skins are very thin.

The Ming Dynasty had a law, and if there was a deviation in the executioner's execution, he would be punished with a rod.

As soon as Ma Cuishan and Li Mazi were tortured, Lang Zhong came to the stage to bandage them, and there was salt in the 'medicine' herbs used.

Da Kui took advantage of this moment and ordered someone to prepare water and wine and serve it to the execution table.

The wine was delivered by Shishi, who held the wine jar in one hand and a sea bowl in the other, walked up to the execution table and came to Pan Ke and Fu Tailai and said with a smile: "Two adults, my family Zhang Daren is in the same league as the two adults. Saying that, he took the gaged cotton cloth for Pan Ke and Fu Tailai.

As soon as the two of them could speak, they shouted in unison: "I just want to die quickly, and I am willing to confess."

Da Kui was relieved when he heard this.......

Ascending again, Pan Ke, Fu Tailai, Ma Cuishan, Li Mazi, all four of them arrived at the hall.

Da Kui sat upright in the main hall, and when the yacha had sung Tang Wei, he patted the Tang Mu and announced the verdict: "This official has announced the verdict."

Looking at the four people in the hall, Da Kui proclaimed: "Pan Ke Fu Tailai, as an official of the imperial court, knows the law, violates the law, and seeks bribes for 'personal gain'.

Da Kui paused and said: "Ma Cuishan and Li Mazi are both 'desired' and help to abuse them, but they also have a heart of repentance.

When Ma Cuishan and Li Mazi heard that they could still live, they both had a 'excited' and moved 'color' on their faces. The two of them fell to the ground with one arm and bowed down.

Da Kui got up and said, "You and the two of you have wives and children, from now on, don't make a difference between right and wrong for the tiger. As he spoke, Da Kui waved his hand and signaled that he could leave.

In this way, Da Kui was already very satisfied. Pan Ke not only sold 'private' salt, but also sold prostitutes and gambling in Raocheng, and sold them on land. All these 'flowers' were varied. He and Fu Tailai 'handed' the silver offered was 450,000 taels, and the silver tickets alone contained three boxes.
