The wooden building, the old hall, and the large candles on the ceiling are used as chandeliers, which illuminate the room in front of the not bright fire.
On the ground and on the wall, there are faint dark red spots, as if to describe the once harsh scene here, the air is cold, and the slightly timid goose bumps have crawled all over the body.
This is the Tang Family Penal Hall, the five main halls of criminal law, which opened again tonight after several years of sealing up the dust.
At this time, the torture hall was full of people, led by Mr. Tang, and the three patrons were sitting at the opposite door of the hall. Three of the five seated persons. The rest, both young and old, stood by the wall, watching Yu Xiu and Yu Xian in the hall. , Fuxiong three people.
On the seat, Elder Tang was sitting in the middle, his chest was bandaged by the Tang family doctor, his breath continued: "Let’s start." He said, pointing at Fu Xiong, "Fu Jia Xiao Er, whether you are right or wrong, I will punish you with a whip of 30. After three full years of ban, can you object to it again?"
Fuxiong was silent, looking at the Patriarch of the Fu family on the left seat, and said in a deep voice, "I'm right!"
"You can tell if it's wrong or right. Punishment!" The Fu Family Patriarch had no expression on his face, instructing the torturer to untie Fuxiong's shirt, and drew him thirty whips until he was bloody, but the latter also resisted not saying a word.
"This son is indeed a talent for creation." Li Jiazhuang couldn't help boasting aside.
Patriarch Fu nodded gently: "It still needs to be sharpened." He continued to greet Houzai's medical staff to send Fuxiong away to recuperate.
After punishing Fuxiong, Mr. Tang was silent for a while and pointed to Yu Xiu again, but this time he opened his mouth and stopped. He hesitated for a while, and said: "The old man can't think of her guilt, do you think she is guilty?"
"she was… "
There was a whisper among all the people present. A few minutes later, the Fu family master said: "This woman did her best to save the family, and there was no despicable way. Although she offended Elder Tang, if you look closely, there is really no fault."
"Yes, the penalty hall has always been fair, and Yu Xiu is not wrong, and improperly punished." Patriarch Li also agreed.
The two Patriarchs were like this, and everyone agreed. Elder Tang was innocent and immediately waved his hand: "If this is the case, Yu Xiu is correct, and I will go to the corner to watch the punishment.
Yu Xian was still there. Yu Xiu took her father’s hand with tears and did not want to leave. The latter sighed and patted her shoulder: "Xiu'er, you have always worked hard, Yinger is incompetent, and the Yu family can only Depend on you, don't let me down."
Yu Xiulei fell smoothly, shook her head, and walked aside.
"I knew today, why bother back then. Yu Xian, what else do you want to say?" Old Tang said again, with a sigh in his tone.
Yu Xian said: "I still said that, Yu Xian is guilty of refining the corpse privately, but the Hai Family is indeed not what I did, so please let Tang Shu see it!"
"What do you think?" Elder Tang looked at the two Patriarchs Li and Fu.
The two Patriarchs glanced at each other, and Patriarch Li expressed his thoughts: "The evidence for this matter is indeed far-fetched. Presumably, the people of the Hai Family are not willing to wrong the good people. I suggest that this should be thoroughly investigated in advance. The evidence is not conclusive. Jump to the conclusion."
Elder Tang looked at Patriarch Fu again, and the latter nodded in favor of Patriarch Li. He continued: "Then this crime will be slowed down, but Yu Xian's private refining of the corpse, according to the ancestral rules, should also be subjected to wood punishment!"
The two masters were silent for a while, and it was unreasonable to plead for Yu Xian’s intentions. When the five corpses revised the corpse chapters, they had always used heavy punishments to deter them. Now Yu Xian is tortured, if not according to the ancestral punishment. Punishment can't be justified.
So none of those present had objections, and Mr. Tang announced in public: "Take the stakes!"
Just as the remarks of the five revised spirit corpses record, the person who refines the corpse privately shall be tortured by trapped wood to rot, referred to as wood punishment. This punishment is extremely heavy. It first nails the human body to the yin wood to fix the soul, and then the food is not allowed to enter, so that it will starve to death and die of thirst under the condition that the soul cannot leave the body. That's not even counted, because the soul is fixed, and he has to watch his body decay until there is only one bone left. Criminal methods are rarely bloody, but the fear and loneliness in the center of the process is chilling to think about!
"No, the corpse king's heart is cultivated by the Yu family. Whether you practice it or not, you can't use the criminal law privately! Ah!..."
Seeing that the Tang family disciples quickly took a human-shaped wooden stake, Yu Xiu couldn't help but struggle again. An elderly person next to her couldn't stand it, and knocked it out, which calmed down.
"This kid is very temperamental, thank you brother Li."
"Brother Yu is polite."
Yu Xian thanked him for this humanity. As the person involved, he did not show any fear in the face of the heavy torture instrument. He even cooperated with the torturer and still nailed himself alive!
When the eighteen corpse nails penetrated, Yu Xian's body was covered with his own blood, and because of his half-spirit body, the corrosiveness in the blood corroded his clothes, leaving his whole body naked and miserable.
Seeing that his former friend was like this, the Patriarch of the Li family couldn't help it anymore and pleaded with him: "This punishment is so vicious, why should I stay here today? No one has faults, please Don't let him down."
Elder Tang firmly shook his head: "I see the punishment and abolish it. What's the point?" With a wave of his hand, the Tang family disciple brought a wine glass and a jug, and continued: "You can't bear it, can it be better for the old man? Yu Xian is the first patriarch who has received severe punishment since the establishment of the five punishments. The criminal law is so old that there is nothing he can do. He can only send you a glass of wine to bid farewell to the patriarch Yu."
After talking about it, I took two wine glasses filled with wine, walked to Yu Xian's body, brought them to his mouth in person, drank with one of them, and poured the glasses to everyone: "Please."
"please."
Everyone was infected by this emotion, and no matter what kind of grievances they had in the past, they all drank their cups.
After drinking, Elder Tang sighed: "Yu Xian, don't talk about the Hai Family, you said why you want to transform the corpse."
"Why?..." Yu Xian showed bitterness for the first time, glanced at everyone present, and finally moved his gaze to Yu Xiu's face, "I have a son and a daughter, and Ying's children have few disciplines. It's unbearable. I'm afraid it is still In the self-care game, the lack of virtue and incompetence can be seen. Xiu'er is a woman, although she is tough and tough, but she is not enough to do things and is not enough to maintain my Yu family's family business. I wait for five families, handed down to the family, for not just one Inheritance?"
His words made the people present nod their heads for a while. Old Tang said: "Yes, the old man thinks the same as you, the only difference between you and me, maybe it's the bloodline."
"Uncle Tang has three sons and more than ten grandchildren, which is indeed enviable."
"Wrong, in fact, the old man has eight sons."
"Oh?… "
Elder Tang suddenly said this with a smile, so that no one in the audience understood what he meant. Then he listened to his words and said, "The old man asked himself Merry, just as the surname Gu said before, Dong'er belongs to me. child."
"what!?"
Everyone was shocked, and Yu Xian's expression changed drastically. What came to mind: "The wine!?"
At this time, Elder Tang had turned around and said to Li and the Fu family: "In addition, Fu Nian, Fu Xiu, and Li Rui are also the flesh and blood that the old man gave to the Fu and Li families."
The two Patriarchs of Fu and Li were dumbfounded at once, and without giving them time to react, Elder Tang turned around and continued Yu Xian with a smile: "Do you know why the old man didn't punish Yu Xiu?"
"Old Piff, you!" Yu Xian struggled, feeling that his head looked green like the two masters of Fu and Li.
"Don't get excited, let the old man finish: Do you really think that Mrs. Zun committed suicide because of postpartum depression? In fact, it is the old man's fault for sorry for her, giving her flesh and blood but not being able to give her status, hey, it's all romantic fault."
"***!"
"Actually, I should say this sentence." Old Tang smiled weirdly. At the moment when Yu Xian was shocked again, he pointed a blade into his chest, dug out his heart, and swallowed it... (this chapter) Finish)
