Chapter 104: Turmoil in the Execution Ground
Go back to three days ago. Flash Dance
The beggars gang Guangling Helm Law Enforcement Hall handles the daily affairs of the beggars in the room.
"When 'Sword Saint' Dugu Song left Guangling, he specially told me that as soon as Lin Xiaoxie left Guangling, he asked me to pass on the book to Feiying immediately, now do I pass it on, or not?"
"Forget it, Lin Xiaoxie's departure from Guangling is not a matter of secrecy, even if I don't pass it on, the 'Sword Saint' Dugu Song will get the news sooner or later, at most it will be a day or two late, why offend a powerful elder of the beggar gang for this little thing. ”
Thinking of this, Yang Yuli picked up the pen and wrote a line on a secret letter.
"Someone!" shouted the sheep's tongue.
"Hall master, subordinates are here. A Law Enforcement Hall disciple pushed the door in.
"Immediately pass this flying eagle to the sword saint of the Northern Helm, 'Dugu Song!'" Yang Yuli handed over the secret letter that had just been written.
"Yes, hall master, my subordinates will do it immediately!" the disciple respectfully accepted.
The execution site at the south gate of Hengshan City has been surrounded by a sea of people who came first, and the water is impassable.
The people who were with Lin Xiaoxie were behind the crowd, and they couldn't see the scene of beheading, some people stood on tiptoe behind, and some people screamed anxiously.
Some people started to climb up the nearby trees, and some people climbed directly onto the roofs of nearby houses. Flash Dance
Everyone is waiting to see the head hit the ground!
This kind of on-site beheading-style execution method, Lin Xiaoxie has only seen it in film and television dramas before.
With a little force, Lin Xiaoye easily squeezed through the crowd and came to the front of the crowd of onlookers, and he didn't stop until the officers and soldiers blocked him.
Lin Xiaoxie also saw that in front of the prisoner was a row of wooden guillotines, and when the execution was carried out, it was the prisoner who put his head on the guillotine, and then the executioner cut it off with another knife.
There was a table of eight immortals near the guillotine, and there were more than ten bowls of spirits on the table, and from such a distance, Lin Xiaoxie also smelled a smell of inferior spirits.
I didn't see it at the back of the crowd just now, but now that my vision is broad, Lin Xiaoxie unexpectedly found that among the people waiting to be tortured, there was a little boy about three years old, the little boy had black hair, long pink and tender, tiger head and tiger brain, and he was cute.
"Among the prisoners waiting for execution, how can there be a little boy?" Lin Xiaoyi asked an old man with white hair next to him, who seemed to be a native of Hengshan County.
"Lord County Shou has decided that the Li family will punish the three clans, and this little boy is the blood and flesh of the current head of the Li family, of course, including the three clans!" the old man turned his head and glanced at Lin Xiaoxie and replied.
"Such a young child, he doesn't understand anything, and he wants to be killed?!" Lin Xiaoxie was taken aback and asked. 35xs
"I don't understand it now, when he grows up, he may remember today's events, if there is a chance, he will come to help his parents overturn the case, even if he grows up to be an ordinary person, he may avenge his parents, and he will be angry, and blood will be splashed in three steps!" the old man explained.
"Oh, this kid was affected by the adults of his family, and the child is innocent!" Lin Xiaoxie said with emotion.
"It's all just the laws of the imperial court! I have been in Hengshan County for so many years, and how many so-called innocent people who have been implicated by their families have died in this South Gate Execution Ground!" The old man was obviously a man of many words, and he was now more excited.
This ancient court law is really cruel, even children are killed. Lin Xiaoxie thought secretly.
Lin Xiaoxie remembered again that he had watched a film and television drama "Zhao's Orphan" before crossing over, and he really didn't kill it now, and when the child grew up, he might come to take revenge for his dead parents and relatives!
Alas, in this era, how can you be innocent! Lin Xiaoxie also sighed
This little boy did not tie his hands like other adults, but tied his hands with ropes, such a young child did not understand anything, although his hands were tied, he thought that the adults were playing with him, he smiled innocently, not afraid at all, a pair of big black eyes looked around.
The boy noticed that his parents were holding two children about his age in the crowd, and the boy raised his bound hands to show off to the two children, and then let out a giggle.
Next to the little boy was a good-looking woman and a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance.
They appeared to be the parents of the little boy, but they were tied up and could not move.
"Li Lang, although I usually quarrel with you all the time, I am still happy to die with you today!" Although she was dying, the woman with a beautiful face still looked at the middle-aged man beside her with affection.
The woman with a beautiful face turned her head and glanced at the little boy not far away with pity, and said, "It's not a pity for us to die, it's just our cool child."
The middle-aged man showed a remorseful expression, and said with a miserable smile: "It's me who didn't manage the Li family well, but the matter has come to this, on Huangquan Road, we are a family of three, let's walk hand in hand." ”
Hearing the little boy's laughter, the two looked at the little boy with loving and helpless eyes.
At this time, a young woman suddenly rushed out of the crowd of onlookers, because she was desperate to squeeze through the crowd, her hair was scattered, and her expression was panicked.
She wanted to continue to pass the officers and soldiers who maintained order and hug the little boy, but she was firmly blocked by two officers and soldiers reaching out!
"Mother, mother. Hearing the shouting, the little boy also saw the young woman, and the little boy shouted in a childish voice.
Seeing that the young woman was still blocked and couldn't get over, the little boy cried with a "wow".
"What's going on, this kid has two mothers?" Lin Xiaoxie asked curiously.
"It seems that this woman should be the child's wet nurse, and according to our customs here, she can also be called a mother. The old man replied.
The warden looked up at the sky, waved his hand, and said, "Let go of her and let her go over and say goodbye!"
"Feihuang, what are you doing here, get out of here!" called the woman with a beautiful face.
"Sir, madam, I'm here to see you off!" the young woman rushed to the side of the good-looking woman and the middle-aged man, and knelt down to bow to them.
"Mother, mother!" the boy burst into tears and laughed, and when he saw that the young woman named 'Feihuang' still ignored him, he shouted twice in succession.
"Shuang'er, Shuang'er, do you miss your mother!" said the young woman who hurried over and took the boy in her arms, whimpering.
"Yes!" replied the boy in a milky voice.
"Your Excellency, the hour has come!" reminded the soldier beside the warden.
"Don't worry, wait!" said the warden.
"Da, da, da, da, da!" came the sound of horses' hooves from far and near.
"Report!~~~" It turned out that there was a herald who arrived on horseback.
"The county guard has an order, the hour has come, and the execution will be carried out immediately!" the herald turned and dismounted, shouting loudly.
