Chapter 236 Ling Chi and Peeling
Seeing that Laoshan was still evasive, Xu Xianchun said with a smile: "Everyone in the world knows Ling Chi, but there are many kinds of Ling Chi. The most severe Ling Chi in the world is 3,600 knives. This was the kind of punishment Liu Jin received back then, and the execution was
He is the ancestor of Mr. Lao. Ever since I heard about this kind of criminal law, I have always hoped to see this most advanced criminal law one day."
He smiled bitterly and shook his head. Laoshan didn't expect that Mr. Xu Xianchun would be so curious about this. In the Ming Dynasty, there were many people who knew Lingchi, but this was the only one who could do more than three thousand swords. In the Ming Dynasty, there was no semicolon.
In the box in Laoshan that no one has seen, there are Lingchi tools passed down from our ancestors.
However, Laoshan made up his mind not to do it. He had never used this kind of criminal law in his life. How could he do it at such an old age? His father once said back then that doing such a thing would really damage one's moral character.
The descendants are not good. When Laoshan's father died, he made a will that no descendant of the Lao family should enter this industry again.
But looking at Xu Xianchun's expectant eyes, Laoshan sighed softly and said helplessly: "Master Xu, my father made a last wish before his death. No descendant of the Lao family will be allowed to set foot on this path. I hope you will forgive me. If
Your Excellency, if you really want to see it, there are still people in Jinyiwei who are proficient in this way, you can find someone else!"
After listening to Laoshan's words, Xu Xianchun nodded slowly. Everyone has different hobbies. Xu Xianchun has liked punishment since he was a child. But since Laoshan is unwilling, Xu Xianchun has nothing to do. Although he is in charge of Jinyiweinan Town Fusi, he still has
He has no ability to compete with Luo Sigong. Laoshan belongs to Luo Sigong, and Xu Xianchun does not have the strength to fall out with Luo Sigong.
Sighing softly, Luo Sigong said helplessly: "In this case, I will probably regret it for the rest of my life! As for other people's Ling Chi, just don't look at it!"
After taking a look at Laoshan, Xu Xianchun looked a little lonely. He waved to the people behind him and said to a thin middle-aged man: "I'll leave the matter to you. I'm going to skin them and stuff them with grass for my officer to see."
It depends on your craftsmanship. If you can satisfy me this time, you brothers can follow me in the future."
"Yes, sir!" The middle-aged man didn't say much. He nodded to Xu Xianchun and said respectfully.
After listening to Xu Xianchun's words, Laoshan standing next to him was stunned. Peeling skin and filling it with grass is also a craft. If the skin is not peeled off well, it will be difficult to form a complete human skin, let alone filling it with grass. He looked at it in confusion.
After looking at a few people, Laoshan wondered where these people came from. After taking a cautious look at Xu Xianchun, Laoshan warned himself that he must stay away from Xu Xianchun, this person was too dangerous.
The two traffickers were brought to a relatively spacious place, and several people began to dig a hole in the ground. When the digging was almost done, they put one prisoner inside. Naturally, it was the tougher prisoner, who was still digging.
Swearing loudly.
No one paid attention to this criminal, and no one even wanted to shut his mouth. At this time, everyone was attracted by the word skinning. Although Taizu always skinned and stuffed grass, none of these people did.
Saw it.
The surrounding soil was buried back into the pit, but it only reached the prisoner's shoulder and stopped. At this time, the thin middle-aged man slowly walked to the prisoner's side and took out a silver knife from his body.
The knife looks extremely sharp.
There were many people in the yard, and everyone was watching attentively, without blinking an eye. I saw the middle-aged man holding down the prisoner's head, and gently scratched the prisoner's head with a silver knife.
Cross, blood immediately flowed. The middle-aged man also paid attention, and the expression on his face did not change at all.
At this time, three more people came behind the man. They squatted on each side of the prisoner, and each of them grabbed a scalp. Suddenly the prisoner screamed, blood spattered everywhere, and the four scalps were immediately pulled up.
Everyone present was frightened, including Laoshan, who had been tortured for a long time. He knew that his ancestral Lingchi was very cruel, but he didn't expect that the skinning was similar to his own! Or even worse. There was only one person at this time.
There was no change in his expression. This person was Mr. Xu Xianchun, a colleague of Jin Yiwei.
The last remaining person took out a gourd from his backpack and began to pour it over the gap that the four people had torn open. Immediately, even more shrill screams sounded in the yard, and many people could not stand it anymore.
They all hid their faces.
After the contents of the gourd were poured out, several people retreated, leaving only one prisoner struggling on the ground.
Looking at the middle-aged man who came back, Xu Xianchun said with some confusion: "Is this enough? Don't you have to do anything?"
"Sir, that's it! Please wait and see." The man bowed respectfully and said with certainty.
As time went by, the prisoner's screams became more and more shrill, which made the screamer feel panicked. His body kept swinging, and in the surprised eyes of everyone, the prisoner's head began to slowly move upward. Only the skin came out.
The whole body below is crawling outward from the inside of the skin.
At this time, the people present could not bear to watch, but they hid their faces and walked away, looking at the other prisoner, who was already pale and frightened.
Slowly squatting down, Xu Xianchun gently patted the prisoner's face and said with a smile: "You have to know that sometimes dying is a very difficult thing. If you say it now, it's still too late, otherwise you will be very
Soon I will be like him."
As soon as Xu Xianchun finished speaking, the prisoner who was being executed over there had made no sound, but his whole body had not crawled out. He only crawled up to his waist, leaving bloodstains on the ground. Seeing this scene, the five executioners all looked downcast.
, the thin middle-aged man came to Xu Xianchun and said with shame: "Sir, this villain is incompetent and has no face to serve here. I will say goodbye!"
Gently waving his hands, Xu Xianchun smiled calmly and said with a pleased expression: "You are very good. I have heard of this kind of craft before, but this is the first time I have seen it. It doesn't matter. I will follow you later.
There are plenty of opportunities around me."
"Thank you, Sir!" The man seemed not to have thought that Xu Xianchun would keep him, but he was just slightly stunned, and his face regained its composure.
Slowly turning his head, Xu Xianchun smiled and said to the prisoner: "Actually, I really want to see it again and get a complete human skin. I wonder if you can help me?"
Looking at Xu Xianchun tremblingly, the remaining prisoners were already full of fear. After hearing Xu Xianchun's words, they quickly said loudly: "Sir, I've taken action! I've taken everything!"
Looking at the prisoner with a smile, Xu Xianchun breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but he still said with amusement on his face: "Tell me! What a pity, it seems that there will be less than one complete human skin today!"
"Sir, the Xu Hongru you are looking for is indeed from our Wenxiang Sect. He is the master of our Wenxiang Sect. We only know that Xu Hongru is in Xujiaji, thirty miles away, under the alias Xu Fu."
The prisoner was horrified by Xu Xianchun's look and said quickly.
Nodding slowly, Xu Xianchun said with a calm face: "Tell me about it! What's going on with this scent-smelling gate?"
"Yes, sir! The Wenxiang Sect was established by the sect owner for more than twenty years. Xu Hongru used to be a member of the White Lotus Sect. As for his identity, I don't know!" There was no need for Xu Xianchun to ask.
, this person quickly told everything he knew.
"How is your scent-smelling gate constructed? Who is above you?" Xu Xianchun pondered for a moment before asking another question that concerned him the most.
The man lowered his head and thought for a while, then said in a deep voice: "There is one master of the Wenxiang Sect, two deputy masters, and below are the six masters. These people are the most powerful people in the Wenxiang Sect.
.”
"What is your status in Wenxiang Sect?" Xu Xianchun was immediately shocked. It seems that this sect organization that has been in existence for more than 20 years is very well-organized and very powerful!
It seemed that the wound was hurting. The man frowned slightly, and after a while he said: "There are eight incense altars under each hall master, and each incense altar has an incense owner. The one who died just now and I
People are all the incense masters of the incense-smelling gate."
Xu Xianchun was shocked again. These people were really well-organized. He hesitated for a moment, then asked with a stern face: "What is the purpose of the Wenxiang Sect? Are you still related to the White Lotus Sect?"
"Sir, although Xu Hongru was born in the White Lotus Sect, he has broken away from it now, and the two have no relationship. Xu Hongru wanted to be the emperor himself, so he founded the Wenxiang Sect, and he is not a member of the White Lotus Sect." Then.
The man spoke again.
Nodding with satisfaction, Xu Xianchun stood up slowly and told the Jin Yiwei who was standing far away: "Press the person down, be sure to watch carefully!" After saying that, Xu Xianchun's eyes fell on another person who was accompanying him.
On the body, he said in a deep voice: "Take my official survey, go to the county government office and the inspection department, and ask the county magistrate's inspection team to gather at the city gate! Just say that there is a local rebel party, and someone is plotting evil, and I will come to investigate.
Check, let them all cooperate! In addition, gather the Jin Yiwei brothers in the city and prepare to leave the city with me.
At this point, Xu Xianchun no longer had much to worry about. Luo Sigong conveyed to him Emperor Tianqi's oral instructions that he must catch this Xu Hongru. Now that there was news, Xu Xianchun naturally wanted to do it as soon as possible. As for the other members of the Wenxiang Sect,
People, as long as they catch Xu Hongru, will these people still want to run away?
By the time Xu Xianchun gathered his troops, it was already half an hour later, but because the city gate had been sealed in advance, he did not go out to report the news. The Inspection Department sent out 150 troops, 50 from the county government, and 100 from the Jinyi Guards. This was how it was formed.
Chapter completed!
