Chapter 378: Punishment(1/2)
"Emmmm..."
Covering his mouth and groaning, Zhao Yinshun had no choice but to compromise after a long time.
"Okay, for the sake of senior sister, let him die a nice death... let's kill him together with these insects below."
Hearing this, Qi Tong breathed a long sigh of relief and bowed his head respectfully.
"Your Majesty has mercy."
"…………"
Did this guy take bad lessons from Choi Eun-hyun?
The boy in white squinted his eyes and looked around, but Qi Tong's expression was calm, and his eyes were sincere and pious.
Her praise came from the bottom of her heart. After all, compared to being skinned and dismembered, dismembered into a pile of materials, and decapitated, this method of death is truly merciful.
After looking for a long time and not noticing anything unusual, Zhao Yinshun withdrew his gaze suspiciously, looked at Li Yuerong who was standing quietly aside, and pointed at the seventh-level scholar beside him.
"Although it's a little late, it's better than nothing. Kill him first and sacrifice the flag for my [Shenwu Army]!"
"yes!"
Li Yuerong solemnly clasped his fists, grabbed Lian Yuanwei's body, turned around and walked off the high platform.
Soon, disbelieving cries rang out from under the high platform, and the criminals in blue clothes looked at the figure being dragged onto the execution platform and let out desperate and shrill wails.
"It's Lian Daru!"
"Lian Daru is here to save us!"
"Zhao Yinshun! How dare you?!"
"You beast! Slaughter the saints! Zhao Yinshun, you will be punished by heaven! You will not die a good death!"
………………
Seeing the life-saving straw being dragged onto the execution platform without any resistance and pushed to the ground like a dead dog, the remnants of the aristocratic family finally broke through their defenses collectively, cursing hysterically like shrews.
They didn't really love Da Ru, but they saw their own miserable fate in Lian Yuanwei, and... a future that made them even more afraid.
After all, even the long-famous Confucian sages dare to kill, what else can't the "tyrant" do?
And the status of these people is, in a sense, based on Confucian legal principles.
Lord, Lord, Minister, Father, Father, Son!
The lowly common people were born to work as cattle and horses to support noble masters like them.
Even if you are enslaved and exploited, you have to work hard without complaining...
Because this is the law of heaven!
However, now, the expounders of their [Heavenly Principles] and the sages and scholars who constructed their ruling laws are lying on the execution platform like a dead dog, about to be slaughtered!
This humiliating death without dignity will seriously impact the prestige of Confucianism, and will even shake the foundation of the entire Damin landlord class!
If the foundation of the existence of wealthy families like them is crushed, then the meaning of their lives will be denied.
Until this moment, they were shocked to realize that the family's glory, noble blood, extraordinary power, and all the things they were proud of were just a joke in Zhao Yinshun's eyes!
This is not only to kill their people, but also to kill their hearts!
After thinking about this, the shouts and curses in the audience instantly became louder and could be clearly heard even in the county and city more than ten miles away.
However, admiring the twisted and incompetent expressions of these insects, Zhao Yinshun felt no fluctuation in his heart and even wanted to laugh a little.
"To establish a scholar who is honest and honest, who disobeys his superiority and inferiority, confronts the Duke of the country, and has him beheaded in public to serve as a warning to others!"
As soon as the calm verdict was announced, the dark crowd in the audience fell silent for an instant. After a brief sluggishness, crazy curses burst into the sky.
"Beast! What a shame for Lian Daru! He met a tyrant like you!!"
"Lian Daru is not guilty! You have no right to judge him!"
"Rewards come from the heart, and killing comes from the mouth. You dare to kill even the sages and great scholars! Zhao Yinshun, you will be punished!!"
………………
Listening to the unoriginal howl, Zhao Yinshun raised the corners of his mouth to indicate the direction of the execution platform.
On the execution platform not far away, Li Yuerong replaced the original executioner and personally drew his sword.
Although Lian Yuanwei's true spirit has been extinguished, the extraordinary power in his spirit and flesh is still functioning instinctively. Even if he stands here and is attacked, weaker extraordinary beings cannot even hurt him.
Not to mention the unreasonable and terrifying vitality under the authority of [Jingguan]. Even if Li Yuerong took action himself and wanted to cut off the opponent's head with one blow, he would have to mobilize the entire army of blood demons and go all out!
Phew~
Taking a deep breath, Li Yuerong held the knife in both hands and slowly raised it above his head. The blood evil energy that was imperceptible to the naked eye spiraled along the military link, forming a scarlet vortex several miles in diameter.
At the core of the whirlpool, the cold sword was dyed with a suffocating bright red, and the thick blood compressed and condensed. The entire blade turned into a crystal clear ruby, exuding a beautiful and cruel killing intent.
"No!"
Seemingly understanding that destiny cannot be violated, countless prisoners shed tears when they saw this scene, not only sad for Lian Yuanwei's fate, but also sad for their own fate.
For a moment, the heaven and earth seemed to be moved. A murderous wind suddenly blew from the originally peaceful land, causing the dark gold black dragon flag on the execution platform to fly.
The scene of the execution seemed to freeze at this moment. The embarrassed scholar kneeling on the stage, the sturdy general holding the butcher knife high beside him, and the dark gold black dragon behind them, baring their teeth and claws in the wind, together formed a very symbolic scene that made everyone
Everyone who saw this scene felt palpitations, as if they had foreseen some kind of terrible future.
Huh~
The next second, a poignant blood light flashed across the execution platform, tens of thousands of blood demons gathered together, and the bright red sword light, as thin as a cicada's wing, passed through the back of Lian Yuanwei's neck, and stopped precisely one millimeter away from the ground.
.
The violent destructive power completely penetrated all obstacles, and the army of blood demons containing killing and destruction cut off the authority of [Jingguan]. An undetectable blood line on Lian Yuanwei's neck was like a dam, blocking it without saying a word.
The life of truth is restored.
After a few seconds of stalemate, Lian Yuanwei's head finally couldn't hold on any longer and slowly fell down, revealing a smooth, mirror-like cross-section of his neck.
"No!"
"Oh my god! You are blind!"
"Wuwuwu...I don't want to die! I don't want to die!"
…………
Seeing this scene, tens of thousands of prisoners showed various aspects of their lives, some with splitting eyes, some in grief, and some paralyzed and wailing...
Among these people, a handful of keen extraordinary people raised their heads stiffly, their whole bodies trembling involuntarily, and a hideous monster invisible to the naked eye was reflected in their retinas.
In the spiritual vision, the clouds in the sky tore apart, and a mountain-like dark gold black dragon's head slowly hung down like a cloud hanging from the sky. Its cold and cruel purple-gold vertical pupils stared at the execution platform, and opened its greedy mouth like a black hole.
Phew~
Some invisible and intangible mysterious substance was swallowed into the dragon's belly. The dark gold black dragon let out a low groan of satisfaction, and the sky suddenly reverberated with thunderous roars that shook the internal organs.
Soon, the dark golden black dragon with no head or tail retracted into the clouds, the vision in the sky dissipated, and the suffocating sense of oppression gradually faded away, but the flying dragon flag on the execution platform underwent subtle changes and became faintly more powerful.
Ferocious and majestic.
It was only then that the extraordinary among the prisoners came back to their senses from the oppression of the terrible vision. He breathed greedily and sweated like a spring all over his body, as if he had just been fished out of the water.
On the high platform on the other side, Zhao Yinshun closed his eyes with satisfaction, experiencing the mysterious spiritual transformation.
The military soul has achieved considerable growth...
No wonder those generals in ancient times liked to sacrifice flags when they went to war...
Unfortunately, such high-quality "sacrifice" are not often available.
Glancing at the seventh-level scholar whose body was separated, Zhao Yinshun shook his head regretfully, looked at the sun in the sky, and waved his hand in disinterest.
"Noon has arrived."
Li Yuerong on the stage nodded understandingly and directed the soldiers to press groups of prisoners onto the execution platform.
There was no need for him to do anything to these prisoners. Dozens of executioners carefully selected from the soldiers spat on the palms of their hands, and chopped off their heads with excitement and joy as the prisoners struggled, cursed, and begged for mercy.
Many soldiers in the [Shenwu Army] have a blood feud with these landlords. Every time they encounter this kind of thing, they are as happy as the Chinese New Year. They compete for dozens of executioner quotas.
The swift and skillful decapitation movements were like a factory assembly line. After dozens of minutes, the strong smell of blood spread to the county town with the wind, and a small mountain of heads was piled up under the execution platform.
After just watching it for a few hours, Zhao Yinshun lost interest and returned to the county to deal with endless chores.
However, the common people in the county and the surrounding villagers were attracted by such a large battle and saw a shocking scene that they will remember forever.
"Aren't those people from the Liu family? [Zhen Guo Gong] dares to kill them?"
"What is the Liu family? Did you see that fat man? That's the governor of Weili County!"
"What? The Sheriff? Why did you kill the Sheriff?"
"Of course it's because he took bribes, violated the law, and harmed the people. You don't know how many people died because of his family!"
"But...but that was the county guard, and [Zhen Guo Gong] killed him just like that?"
Watching helplessly, the big shots who were once unattainable and controlled their own life and death were slaughtered like livestock. The wailing and screaming before death reminded them of the pigs slaughtered during the New Year. The strong sense of disillusionment caused the awe in everyone's hearts to gradually collapse.
To be continued...
