Volume 7: Ma Mingfeng Xiaoxiao, the young man is raising his sword Chapter 518: Heaven and earth spare one sword, the king spares one sword
"What do you mean?" Shen Zhengnan asked with a suspicious look on his face.
Su Ling said calmly: "You are going to die, do you know that?"
"There is no need for Su Changshi to remind him that Shen never thought about getting out alive from the moment he was captured..." Shen Zhengnan said calmly.
Su Ling sighed, shook his head and said, "What do you think death is like?"
"Death...what does it look like? It's nothing more than pushing out the camp gate, looking behind, and hanging my head on the big banner to scare me, Bohai Erlang..." Shen Zhengnan said lightly.
"Everyone has to die... That's it, I, Shen, deserved to die..." Shen Zhengnan's eyes were very calm, without any trace of fear of death.
"Haha... Shen Zhengnan, don't you think that such a way to die is too quick and too easy?" Su Ling slowly looked at Shen Zhengnan and said thoughtfully.
"Easy? Too fast? Is it difficult? You want to be cut in half. Can the car be broken by me? Su Ling! Xiao Yuanche! You bastards! I am the emperor's personal minister of Bohai. How can you ignore the emperor and humiliate me!" Zheng Zheng
Nan finally couldn't hold back his anger, widened his eyes, and almost roared.
Su Ling sneered and said: "Shen Zhengnan, you are calling the wrong person, but you still remember that when I left last time, I personally said that I will send you on your way tomorrow. Whether you believe it or not, all I want is to send you
Just push him outside the camp gate and behead him..."
Just when Shen Zhengnan was about to speak, Su Ling waved her hand and said, "You shouldn't scold me...nor the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister also told me not to humiliate you..."
"Then what you said just now, is it because you are trying to make me happy?" Shen Zhengnan said with a puzzled look on his face.
Su Ling sneered and said: "Since you know that you are a dying person, why should I look for a dying person to have fun? I'm still afraid of losing my life..."
"Then what do you mean..."
Su Ling sighed and said: "To be honest, neither I nor the Prime Minister initially thought of beheading you. However, there was a person who spoke in front of the Prime Minister and advocated beheading you. It was too easy for you.
It will make Bohai and the people of the world feel that the Prime Minister is weak and unable to subdue the Jin Dynasty... He advocated a kind of torture... The Prime Minister finally agreed..."
"Shen Zhengnan, believe it or not, I tried my best, I tried my best to oppose...but it was helpless, the Prime Minister refused to accept my words..." Su Ling said with a look of regret.
Seeing Su Ling like this, Shen Zhengnan's expression didn't look like he was faking it. He suddenly smiled calmly and said, "Death is death. Any way you die is death. You are trying to scare me with torture. It's just a wishful thinking! It's just a death, Shen Zhengnan
I want to see what kind of torture is inflicted!"
Su Ling glanced at him and said calmly: "The person who is trying to make the most suggestions is Xiao Yuanche's second son, Xiao Jianshu... You know more or less about this person... You
What kind of punishment do you think he will use on you based on his ruthless nature?"
"Xiao Jianshu..." Shen Zhengnan recited it silently, looked at Su Ling, and said with a somewhat relieved expression: "It's him... It's no wonder that your Su Ling's words are so popular with Xiao Yuan."
I can’t even use it when I’m close... That’s all! A dying person doesn’t want to be in debt to others... Please take the trouble, and the ceremony has passed!"
As he said this, Shen Zhengnan wanted to offer his hand to Su Ling.
Su Ling suddenly held his hand and said word by word: "Shen Zhengnan, I'm afraid you still owe me a favor... I'm afraid you will never be able to repay this favor.
!」
Shen Zhengnan smiled and said: "Whether it's torture, beheading, death, death, you have to face it..."
"Then what if this torture is Lingchi..."
Su Ling had no expression on her face and slowly uttered these two words.
Shen Zhengnan suddenly trembled and stayed there. For a long time, he thought he heard wrongly, and said in a trembling voice: "Su Ling... what did you say?"
"I said, you will be executed by Ling Chi tomorrow..." Su Ling looked at Shen Zhengnan with burning eyes.
Shen Zhengnan took a breath of air and kicked
He took a few steps back and leaned heavily against the back wall.
The wall was cold and damp, piercing into the back of his heart and tearing at every inch of his consciousness.
"It turned out to be Lingchi..."
"It turned out to be Lingchi..."
Shen Zhengnan slowly lowered his head and muttered this sentence over and over again.
The voice was slow and low, and there was no hint of anger or fear.
Su Ling felt that he was frightened by the torture and could not recover for a while.
"Shen Zhengnan, aren't you afraid?..."
Su Ling just said this.
"Haha...hahaha!"
Laughing wildly, looking up to the sky and laughing wildly!
Shen Zhengnan stood there, looking up to the sky and laughing wildly.
The laughter became more and more shrill, and gradually the laughter became more desolate and sad.
Su Ling slowly turned around, stood with his hands behind his back, and stopped looking at him.
In his ears, Shen Zhengnan's shrill laughter continued.
Su Ling slowly closed her eyes.
Laughter is like the sigh of an evil ghost, or like an innocent soul weeping blood.
As a result, Su Ling felt a chill on his back.
He simply covered his ears with his hands. Only in this way did he feel that the sadness in the laughter was slightly weakened.
After waiting for a long time, Su Ling tentatively took her hands away from her ears.
Silent and breathless.
Without the shrill laughter coming from the abyss of hell, the entire death row remained as quiet as ever.
Even the silence is a little scary.
Could it be that Shen Zhengnan bit his tongue and committed suicide?
Su Ling thought of this and suddenly turned around to look.
But he froze there.
In front of him, Shen Zhengnan was sitting cross-legged on the weeds, as calm as water, with no waves on his face, and his eyes lowered, like an old monk in meditation.
"you......"
"Su Ling, thank you for informing me in advance...just go away..."
Shen Zhengnan suddenly spoke, his voice was calm and his breathing was steady.
"Let's go? Shen Zhengnan, aren't you afraid?" Su Ling asked doubtfully.
Shen Zhengnan slowly opened his eyes, glanced at Su Ling, and suddenly smiled sadly: "Afraid! I, Shen Zhengnan, have a body of flesh and blood, not bones of steel and iron... How can I not be afraid...
.”
"Then why don't I see you begging me for mercy..." Su Ling looked at him with deep meaning and said.
"Is it useful? You just said that you can't control this decision, let alone change it... I, Shen Zhengnan, am still afraid, no matter how scared, that the punishment of being cut to pieces will come tomorrow.
.....Can I choose? Can I change..." Shen Zhengnan sighed.
"Then you accept your fate?"
"How about admitting? How about not recognizing? Shen still has a choice?" Shen Zhengnan said in a low voice, suddenly looking up at Su Ling.
"Su Ling, do you know what Ling Chi is?"
Su Ling nodded and said, "I've heard a little bit..."
"Ling means a mausoleum! A mausoleum means a slow hillside...here it means slow, slow, slow. These two words form the most cruel punishment in the world... extremely
Slowly, slowly tortured to death..." Shen Zhengnan seemed to suddenly become interested and said to Su Ling.
It was as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
"I know...I have learned..." Su Ling nodded calmly.
"Haha, Su Changshi is knowledgeable...then do you know how many times Ling Chi will be executed?"
Su Ling said without thinking: "Three thousand knives, at least 180 knives will be taken on the first day, and the prisoner will not be able to breathe out on the first day... No matter how many knives he receives on the second day, the prisoner will not be able to breathe out."
It’s restricted...”
Shen Zhengnan nodded, shook his head and said, "Su Ling, I didn't expect you to be so proficient in punishment...Actually, you are right, but you are not right either.
.....There is a precedent for Ling Chi in this dynasty... After Wang Xi came to Beijing and was executed, Cai Zhe, the great emperor at that time, actually cried out for thieves in the city, and then the whole world was furious, so he got Ling Chi.
Punishment."
Shen Zhengnan paused and then said: "I was still young at the time, but I was lucky enough to witness the whole process. How could it be so tragic... Cai Zhe's screams and struggles still seem to ring in my ears.
..."
Su Ling sighed and said: "Three thousand knives... This number can scare people to death... This is a double torture of physical and mental, and the prisoner has to watch himself being chopped alive."
Three thousand cuts, even though he died suddenly in the process, and the flesh was cut off piece by piece, what a horrible and tragic thing it would be..."
Shen Zhengnan waved his hand and seemed to smile slightly: "No, no, no, Su Ling, you are wrong... This dynasty is based on filial piety and brotherhood! The so-called Ling Chi is a severe punishment. If
If you don’t do something, how can you show the kindness of our court to the world?”
"Enyi?" Su Ling asked doubtfully.
"Haha... The so-called execution of Ling Chi with three thousand swords actually only required two thousand nine hundred and ninety-seven swords... As the saying goes, if heaven spares one sword, earth spares one sword, the king must also spare one sword.
!」
When Shen Zhengnan said this, he suddenly laughed sadly and said, "Is it ridiculous? Is it false? What a kindness! What a kindness!"
Su Ling was a little dumbfounded. This so-called Rao Sandao was really too ridiculous.
However, it makes the ignorant spend their whole lives to worship and be grateful for the gift of the emperor.
Really ridiculous.
"So... Su Ling, what about Ling Chi? I only need to take one hundred and eighty cuts, and I can die peacefully the next day... The so-called two thousand nine hundred
Ninety-seven knives are just a bunch of false numbers..."
"In this case, Lingchi doesn't seem too scary anymore, right?"
After Shen Zhengnan finished speaking, he suddenly looked up at Su Ling with a faint smile that was calm and relieved.
"This..." Su Ling was speechless for a moment.
"Let me interrogate Zhengnan and test whether his sword is sharp or not!"
After Shen Zhengnan finished speaking, he slowly closed his eyes and remained speechless.
"Shen Zhengnan... you have died thousands of times in my heart... To be honest, I don't have any pity for you... just because you kill indiscriminately Innocent!" Su Ling said word by word.
"Jian Zhengnan lived an upright life. The only time he killed me, the people of Bohai, Li Shu, was to capture you... That's all. If I can't live with peace of mind, I'll die in hell to atone for my sins!" Shen Zhengnan's face showed a look of dismay. A look of deep guilt.
Su Ling nodded and said: "You are still a man...before you die, you finally repented...you are not a heinous person..."
"Really?"
Shen Zhengnan suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed sadly.
"The punishment of Ling Chi can only be used on the heinous people. If instead of you judging Zhengnan, it's Shen Jizhou...he deserves it...but if you suffer this Inhuman punishment is indeed inappropriate..."
"Shen Zhengnan...Su is willing to help you settle it happily, are you willing?"
Shen Zhengnan, who had closed his eyes and was speechless, suddenly looked up at Su Ling when he heard this. His eyes were full of disbelief and he said in a trembling voice: "Su Ling! What you said is true..."
Su Ling smiled lightly and said, "Although Su is unruly by nature, he never makes promises easily... You are a dying person, why should I deceive you?"
Shen Zhengnan stood up slowly, walked up to Su Ling step by step, and bowed deeply to him.
"You don't have to..."
Before Su Ling could finish speaking, Shen Zhengnan said word by word: "You deserve this gift... Shen is not thanking you for your help, but Shen has two things to entrust to you. ....."
"What?" Su Ling was speechless, with black lines all over his head.
"Shen Zhengnan, labor and management kindly helped you settle the matter, but you gave me
Make terms! You have to figure it out..." Su Ling was almost angry.
Shen Zhengnan smiled faintly and said: "If Shen Zhengnan dares to say this, then you are determined. You will definitely agree to me to do these two things..."
"Tell me why..."
"Don't let your efforts be in vain, don't you want to know where the list of those who threw themselves into the Bohai Sea is? I can tell you... Of course, with your talent, you may also be able to find it yourself... ..But Su Ling, are you helping me end this just because you can’t bear the pain of Ling Chi?” Shen Zhengnan said firmly.
"Haha...what you said, if it weren't for the kindness of Bodhisattva Su Ling, no one would care about you!" Su Ling said angrily.
"If I am imprisoned, this matter will be spread all over the world. What will happen to Longtai? How can the royalist faction, the Qingliu faction, and even the emperor let go of such a good opportunity? When the time comes to attack, what will happen to Xiao Yuanche? If they can't protect it, there will be a fire in the backyard. , even if it can be suppressed in the end, it will still cause trouble and waste some extra details. At this time, almost all of Xiao Yuanche's elite troops are here in Jiuzhang, how can he withstand such a torment?"
When Su Ling heard this, he didn't say anything and just looked at Shen Zhengnan thoughtfully.
"Furthermore, once I am executed by Lingchi, it will confirm Xiao Yuanche's reputation as cruel and merciless, and the world will be frightened. Not to mention that Bohai has people who are willing to join him, won't the world be alienated from him?"
Shen Zhengnan took a deep breath and said: "So, Su Ling, you are willing to take the risk and help me settle it first... Although you are helping me, you only intend to help Xiao Yuanche... Am I right..."
Su Ling rolled his eyes, nodded and said: "Okay... I admit that what you said is right... I can promise the two things you asked, but these two things
If it goes against the Prime Minister, I would rather you suffer the punishment of being cut into pieces by a thousand knives tomorrow!"
Shen Zhengnan smiled and said: "These two things... have nothing to do with Xiao Yuanche... and they are not things that are difficult for you..."
Su Ling helplessly spread his hands and said, "Okay... just tell me!"
