Chapter 96 Digging the Grave and Robbering the Corpse
Capital crime...
The devil is asking for his life...
strangulation...
Several clues were instantly connected by Qin Shaoyou.
He turned his head suddenly and looked at the straw rope that was deeply twisted into the flesh of Xu Er's neck.
He knew what these ruffians had done.
Looking back, Qin Shaoyou stared at the two rogues and said solemnly: "What you did that day was not to molest the female ghost at all, but to dig her grave and open her coffin!"
The two rogues opened their mouths wide again, with shock and panic written on their faces.
Although they didn't speak, just by looking at their expressions, Qin Shaoyou knew that his judgment was correct.
With a groan, Qin Shaoyou continued: "According to Daxia law, anyone who digs a grave or opens a coffin shall be sentenced to death by hanging. That's why Xu Er was hanged at home by the female ghost using her coffin-carrying rope. I only pity his parents.
An unreasonable disaster was forced upon me and I lost my life."
Zhu Xiucai saw the reaction of the two scoundrels and knew that Qin Shaoyou's judgment was probably true, so he was very angry. He kicked the two of them over with a flying kick and cursed: "You are so brave, you dare to rob a tomb?"
Qin Shaoyou observed the changes in the expressions of the two gangsters and further speculated: "What they committed was not only robbing tombs, but also stealing corpses. Moreover, they should have done something to the corpses to attract the ghosts to seek their lives."
.”
The two kicked scoundrels just got up from the ground when they heard Qin Shaoyou's words and were stunned again.
And when they looked at Qin Shaoyou, they were also filled with fear and fear.
There is no doubt that Qin Shaoyou's deduction was correct, that's why the two rogues felt that he was simply terrifying and inhuman.
After hearing Qin Shaoyou's new inference and seeing the reactions of the two rogues, Zhu Xiucai became even more angry.
He went up to the two thugs and kicked them, cursing them at the same time: "You still dare to steal the corpse? And you also molested the corpse? It's so unconscionable! You deserve to be killed by the evil ghost!"
The two thugs were kicked and screamed repeatedly, but they still refused to admit it: "We have never done these things, we have never done anything like robbing corpses and tombs. You are slandering and framing..."
It's a pity that their previous reactions were clearly visible to everyone.
No one believed they could be innocent.
When Zhu Xiucai saw that the two people refused to plead guilty, he sneered and said: "You are tough, right? You don't tell the truth, right? Very good."
He turned around and asked Qin Shaoyou for orders.
"Sir, let me be punished. I don't believe that under torture, they can still grit their teeth and refuse to tell the truth!"
"Okay!" Qin Shaoyou nodded in agreement.
In the Great Xia Dynasty, it was common to use torture when trying cases. Besides, these two scoundrels obviously had problems. Qin Shaoyou would naturally not be kind to them as a woman.
Zhu Xiucai took out a dagger from his sleeve, looked at the two rogues, played with the dagger, and threatened:
"If you two don't tell the truth, I will use this dagger to cut off your flesh one by one... Do you know what this is called? This is called death by a thousand cuts, the punishment of Lingchi. In the end, you will be chopped into pieces.
There is only a skeleton and internal organs left, but the person still cannot die. How about it, does it sound painful and you want to try it? "
The faces of the two thugs turned green with fright, and they shook their heads: We don't want to try this torture...
Qin Shaoyou said at this time: "Don't rush to use Lingchi's punishment. I still want to interrogate clues from their mouths. If they are accidentally chopped to death, it will be a troublesome matter."
When the two rogues heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief.
But Qin Shaoyou's next words surprised them again.
"Put the punishment of Ling Chi last, and deal with other punishments first."
"No problem, sir."
Zhu Xiucai knew that Qin Shaoyou was playing a double act with him, intimidating the two thugs so that they could explain themselves better.
So he deliberately smiled evilly and licked the dagger with his tongue.
Qin Shaoyou frowned when he saw it, and said to himself that it was lucky that the dagger was not quenched, otherwise, Zhu Xiucai would have been killed by his pretentious behavior.
Zhu Xiucai deliberately looked the two rogues up and down, and said in a ferocious voice: "I once heard a Hu businessman from the Western Regions say that in the distant country of Dashi, there is a kind of torture called boat torture. The criminal is stripped naked and covered with honey.
Stuff things like sugar into a tree trunk or wooden barrel, and then force them to eat food that is easy for them to have diarrhea, so that they can fill up the tree trunk or wooden barrel.
Insects such as mosquitoes and flies will fly into the trunk and barrel after smelling the smell and lay a large number of eggs inside.
When the bugs hatch out, they will eat the honey, feces and urine on the criminals, and eventually eat their bodies. They will even burrow into their bodies through their valleys to bite...
In the end, these criminals will be bitten to death by countless insects in a pain worse than death!"
Listening to Zhu Xiucai's eloquent narration, the two scoundrels felt goosebumps crawling all over their bodies, as if there were really countless bugs crawling and biting on their bodies, making them extremely uncomfortable and they subconsciously reached out their hands.
To scratch.
And their faces were frightened and turned blue and white, then white and green again. The change was wonderful.
The two scoundrels trembled and begged for mercy, but Zhu Xiucai ignored them and said to himself: "But this torture is too time-consuming. It will take several days at least to hatch enough maggots. We don't have such a long time at all."
Time is wasted here.”
The two ruffians couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when they heard what he said.
However, unexpectedly, Zhu Xiucai suddenly changed the topic and continued: "But we can use rats. Put hundreds of rats in, and the effect is no worse than maggots! Moreover, rats are notoriously good at digging holes.
"
The two scoundrels had just half relaxed their breath, but upon hearing these words, they immediately took it back again.
They feel that their mood at the moment is really going from heaven to hell, so don't be too excited.
Seeing the reaction of the two people, Qin Shaoyou immediately said: "The mice can do it, you have people to catch the mice now. And when you are catching the mice, don't be idle, take off their pants and slap the boards on them."
Zhu Xiucai nodded in agreement: "Yes! If you can't fight with the board, use the rat. If you don't fight the mouse, use the punishment of Ling Chi!"
Qin Shaoyou nodded and said: "That's it, go ahead."
Zhu Xiucai took the order and immediately called the warriors, dragged the two thugs out of the house, took off their pants in the yard and started beating them.
It didn't take long for the two naughty butts to be beaten until their flesh was torn and blood flowed.
The two scoundrels were in agony, crying and howling.
Then I thought about how painful it was already just to hit the board, but the torture from the rats behind, Ling Chi, etc., I don’t know how painful it will be.
I was suddenly frightened, frightened, and filled with despair.
At this time, they saw the real strongman coming back with a few mice from outside, and they were even more frightened.
The bearded rogue hurriedly cried out: "I'll attack, I'll attack you all. Don't hit me anymore, and don't bite me with those rats."
The white-faced and beardless rogue was so anxious that he just wanted to stop him when the strongman who beat him saw him and directly reached out to remove his chin, leaving him speechless.
The bearded rogue was immediately taken into the house for interrogation.
The white-faced and beardless rogue continued to slap the board outside, unable to hear the sounds in the room at all, and had no idea what his companions were talking about.
After a while, Zhu Xiucai came out, holding a cage full of mice.
He connected the rogue's chin, squatted in front of him and said, "Your companion has already done all the tricks, and you still refuse to talk? Then I will have no choice but to kill you!"
"I'll do it, I'll do it all, don't use rats on me..."
The white-faced and beardless rogue looked at the rat in the cage and felt horrified. All the courage and luck in his heart were shattered.
Even though he knew that once he told the truth, he would definitely die, he still had to tell it and he didn't dare not tell it.
Compared with death, these tortures made him feel more terrible.
"We did dig a grave and steal the body that day, but we didn't molest the body, we just sold it for money..."
The white-faced and beardless rogue told the story of what happened that day while trembling.
Things were more complicated than Qin Shaoyou and the others thought.
