Chapter 21 Execution Ground

The killing fields in Hunhe River are different from those in several nearby counties. Hunhe River follows the tradition of the Qing Dynasty, and the place where killings are carried out is also the busiest place. Renyi Street, which is opposite the county government, is full of shops, and small businesses will be all over the place.

The street only occupies a narrow aisle. Bustling crowds of people are going back and forth, and the sounds of buying and selling are coming and going. Just at the other end of Renyi Street is the murder place of Hunhe.

Like Caishikou in Beijing, six large wooden stakes are buried in the ground at the intersection of Renyi Street. On top of the wooden stakes, there are iron rings up and down on the front and one in the middle on the back, which are used to hold the prisoner's neck, hands and feet respectively.

The prisoner was taken out of the prison and detoured to the county government office. The county magistrate presided over the prisoner, who gave him a farewell drink and a decapitation meal. The wine glass and rice bowl were smashed to pieces on the ground. The police then escorted him through the streets among vendors of all sizes.

Go through and walk to the other end of the street.

At this time, this street is the most lively. Everyone in Hunhe City will come to watch. Some local wealthy households or shop owners will also find a place on the street and place a glass of wine. If the prisoner drinks

, the store even fires cannons to celebrate. Some old people said that this is an act of good deeds, and after the prisoner dies, he will go to the Lord of Hell to talk about the benefits of the family.

After walking through the crowd, the police tied the prisoner to the execution pillar. The executioner wearing a bright red waistcoat appeared. He held a ghost-headed sword with a wide back and thin blade in front of his chest. He walked around the prisoner with his chest exposed and his belly exposed.

Walk around in a circle, look at the prisoner's stature, and assess the severity of the attack. Then, stand to the left of the prisoner, with your legs spread apart, holding a knife in one hand and the other on your hips, waiting for the execution order.

The prison officer's seat is directly opposite the prisoner. It is usually temporarily set up with a reed mat, with a chair and a table inside. On the table are the prisoner's basic information and the verdict, a box of cinnabar juice, and a stick.

Writing brush. When the prisoner is identified, the prison officer picks up the pen, draws a big red circle on the prisoner's name, draws an arrow from the barrel of arrows, shouts execution, and puts the bright red word "Zhan" on the prisoner's name.

If the arrow is thrown to the ground, the prisoner will definitely die.

The executioner received the order, picked up the wine bowl next to him, took a big gulp, and sprayed it on the ghost-head knife. The hot liquor spread in the air, and the pungent smell of the wine could be heard all over the street. This is

Someone came over, grabbed the prisoner's hair, pulled it forward, and exposed the prisoner's neck. The executioner saw the opportunity, raised the ghost-headed sword high, summoned all the strength in his body and swung it down hard. There was no scream,

There was no pain. The blood spurted out from the neck cavity more than one meter high, and the people around him immediately rushed to him. Whoever gets this blood means that he will have good luck from now on.

The person holding the head will symbolically show the severed head to the executioner and shout: "The person who committed such-and-such has been punished!" Then he holds up the head to show it to the people. This execution is considered

Ended successfully.

Of course, mistakes were not always made. It is said that in the Song Dynasty, someone was sentenced to beheaded. The executioner struck out with his sword. For some reason, his foot slipped and he almost fell. The blade of the Ghost Head Sword slid against the prisoner's neck.

Only a strand of hair was chopped off. The supervising officer thought that this was God's will and could not kill anymore, so he reported to the Emperor Ming and changed the execution of the execution to assassination, and the man lost his life.

Today's executioner is Liu Xun, and the executioner is the most famous butcher Bastard in Hunhe County. Since the Ming Dynasty, Bastard's ancestor has been the executioner in Hunhe. For hundreds of years, Hunhe's murderers have been the ancestors of Bastard.

How many people did it.

Before starting, Scar went to the bastard specifically and said to him: "This job was assigned to me by the second master. You must do it beautifully. You have to kill someone and make that person miserable!"

The bastard smiled: "Don't worry, this job has been going on for several generations since my grandfather, and there has never been any mistakes. Just take a look!"

As usual, the Hunhe County Magistrate saw off Ma Xingkong and Hei Wa at the gate of the county government office. After drinking and eating, several policemen carried the two people across the street. The bustling crowd gathered around them, wanting to take a look.

What exactly does this man who shook his head and caused so much trouble and killed Wu Xiaoyi's whole family have three heads and six arms?

Ma Xingkong laughed loudly: "Hahaha... Brother Heiwa, are you afraid?"

"Isn't it just a death? Twenty years later, he will be a good man again!" Hei Wa also said loudly.

"He is my good brother!" Ma Xingkong said: "Brother, if I can't help you in this life, I will make up for it in the next life!"

"Brother! Don't say such things!" Hei Wa said: "If you can go on the road with me, you won't be lonely on the road to hell!"

"Qin Hui, the ruthless and vicious thief, has lost his conscience and acted as a powerful traitor. It doesn't matter if he kills Yue Fei. He has harmed the country and the people. He will be a sinner through the ages and will have a bad name, and will be reviled by everyone for thousands of years." Ma Xingkong suddenly shouted, this

It is a bangzi opera that everyone in Nanhe has heard. Yue Fei sang with this lyrics when he was about to die. Ma Xingkong's singing was obviously an allusion to Wu Xiaoren.

"Huh! Even when you are about to die, you are still in the mood to sing!" Seeing that Wu Xiaoren's expression was wrong, Dao Scar hurriedly said with a smile.

Ma Xingkong then sang: "A great cause is difficult to achieve, and I feel sad and angry. This is the only regret in my life. My son will inherit his father's legacy, and my heart will be at peace."

Hei Wa shook his head and smiled bitterly, and shouted to Ma Xingkong: "Brother! You don't even have a wife, so here you go! Are you scared and confused?" The people next to him also laughed together.

Ma Xingkong didn't care at all, and continued to sing: "Since ancient times, no hero has ever died, and his loyalty can shine through the world. Since ancient times, heroes have not been afraid of death, and they have left their famous names for thousands of years."

After singing the song, they arrived at the execution pile. The police quickly tied up Ma Xingkong and Hei Wa. The bastard was wearing a bright red waistcoat, bare chest, and walked over holding a ghost-head knife. After Ma Xingkong and Hei Wa,

The baby turned around twice and said to Ma Xingkong: "You are a man, I, the bastard, will definitely give you a good time!"

"Thank you!" Ma Xingkong nodded slightly to the bastard.

Liu Xun sat down on the supervisor's seat. The injury on his right arm was a little obstructive. He gently put his right arm on the armrest of the chair, looked up at the sky, picked up a piece of paper on the table, and handed it to

A detective behind him read loudly: "The criminal Ma Xingkong, a ghost in Hunhe County, murdered eleven members of the Wu family and their servants in this village on the second day of May this year. On the thirteenth day of May this year, he murdered Liu Jia'ao Liu."

Eighteen men, women and children, burned down hundreds of houses, and together with the Woniu Mountain bandits attacked the police, causing dozens of deaths and injuries, Hunhe County, Nanhe Province, the Republic of China ruled and sentenced him to death!"

Liu Xun drew a bright red circle on Ma Xingkong's name with a red pen. After the policeman finished reading Hei Wa's charges, Liu Xun did the same. After drawing the circle, Liu Xun took out a command arrow from the command arrow barrel and asked Ma

Xingkong and Heiwa said, "What else do you two have to say?"

Ma Xingkong and Hei Wa turned their heads away, without looking at Liu Xun, and spit on the ground at the same time. Hei Wa cursed: "Stooge, sooner or later you will die under Grandpa's gun!"

Liu Xun became angry, threw down the command arrow in his hand, and said fiercely: "Behead!"
