It is said that heaven has four seasons, and the king has four political affairs. Spring, summer, autumn, and winter correspond to celebrations, rewards, punishments, and punishments. Therefore, in ancient times, it was "asking and beheading the Queen of Autumn". People believed that at this time, heaven and earth
Beginning to be solemn, the murderous intention has arrived, and severe punishments can be imposed to show that this is an execution in accordance with heaven.
Of course, in ancient times, beheading was chosen in the autumn. In addition to complying with the theory of divine induction, it also had practical significance, because the main purpose of public executions was to serve as a warning. Farmers were more free in autumn and winter, and it was also convenient for local officials.
Mobilize people to watch.
But there are exceptions, such as Wang Xu, who cannot wait until autumn. According to the ancients, this person's situation belongs to "treason and treason, never wait for the right time." To put it simply, you can't even get a reprieve from death.
The right thing to do is to pull it out and kill it directly.
Whenever a prisoner like him was executed, there would be even more people to watch. The common people were curious, what did this villain who dared to attack the emperor look like? Could he be a cannibal? Did he have three heads and six arms?
According to modern logic, a person capable of committing such crimes as Wang Xu would basically have to be ten feet tall, weigh two tons, breathe fire, eat hammers, and survive being hit by shotguns...
"Master Liu, you are polite." Mr. Cat stepped forward to greet Liu Hang.
"How dare you, how dare you... Sir Gu, you are too polite." Although Liu Hang is today's supervisor, he knows in his heart that this gold medal Ouchi secret agent is the one who captured Wang Xu.
"Haha... I just came to see how the defense work here is today."
"Lord Gu, please relax. Since I know that the person I killed is a rebellious member of the Hundred Flowers Society, I have already made preparations for them to come to rob the court. In fact, there are already many masters transferred from the Jinyi Guard hidden among the surrounding soldiers.
Besides...I, the top martial artist, am not just showing off."
Mr. Cat smiled even more proudly: "Okay, very good, I have some things to do, so I'll keep you for a while."
"Master Gu, walk slowly..."
…………
At noon, Wang Xu was dragged out with a black cloth on his head. The terrorist's grand appearance immediately set off a climax at the scene. The onlookers were already excited, as if they were watching a stranger's life in their own hands.
Ending before their eyes will bring them great pleasure.
There is such a terrible side in human nature. People who come to see beheaded just want to hear a few cries like "I will be a good man again in twenty years" or "I'm wronged! Spare my life!".
In fact, these people just want to see their own reflection in others...
It's like going to the street to look at the beauties who don't belong to you, going to the bank to look at the banknotes that don't belong to you, or going to the car show to look at the sports cars that don't belong to you.
People who come to see beheaded are watching a death that does not belong to them. When they see an unyielding hero, they will applaud him and imagine that they can die so vigorously; but when they see a person crying and begging for mercy, they are afraid
They will not show any sympathy to the coward who died. Instead, they will scold him for what he deserves and whether he dares to do what he does. Of course, they do this not because they are angry at him, but because they know in their hearts that they will have the same reaction, but
But they want to deny it, so they use this aggressive behavior to show that they do not belong to this category of people.
However, Wang Xu seemed to be different from other death row prisoners. He knelt in front of the executioner without saying a word or even reacting, as if he was asleep. According to the executioner's many years of experience, people like this did not even have a last word before death.
People are either scared out of their wits, or their tongues have been pulled out long ago in prison.
Liu Hang looked up at the sky and said: "It's noon, execution!"
Generally, the practice of the Tribulation Law Field is to shout out at this critical moment: "Save someone under the sword" and then follow the trend to kill, but today, the people in the Tribulation Law Field did not say anything, only a sword energy came across the sky,
Chopping the sword that the executioner carried on his shoulder in two.
Even though the man in charge of beheading was tall and powerful, he was not very good at martial arts. The sword on his shoulder was broken and a large piece of his scalp was rubbed off by the sword energy. At this time, his first reaction was
It's like running around like a mouse.
Yan Li, dressed in fine attire, jumped up from the crowd. With her outstanding dexterity skills, she had already approached the execution platform with just a few steps on the crowd. But she was not the only one who was good at martial arts. The Jin Yi guards hidden among the soldiers had already been waiting for this moment.
A moment later, when they saw this gangster appear, they all drew their swords and attacked Yan Li.
The sword energy and the sword energy collided in the air, and from time to time, a burst of blood mist rose into the sky. This kind of fighting would inevitably affect Chiyu, and the crowd fell into chaos in an instant. People fled in panic, trying to get away from the place of right and wrong.
It would be difficult to maintain order. Of course, Liu Hang did not issue such an order. He just watched with cold eyes. In his opinion, it would be best for irrelevant people to disappear.
He has also seen Yan Li's martial arts, and she must be inferior to him. Unless she wants to die, it is impossible to rob the court alone. Therefore, there must be masters hidden in the crowd. Now that these people are gone, they will
There is nothing to hide from.
Sure enough, five or six more figures jumped up high. They were all women. One of them, Liu Hang, also knew that the unique weapon, the Mirror Blade, was only owned by Yu Xin, the top master of the Hundred Flowers Club.
"Haha! You're good to go!" Liu Hang jumped up, picked up a steel gun hidden in his hand, and went out.
He came down the mountain like a fierce tiger, and before anyone arrived, his murderous intention arrived first. Yu Xin knew that it was not careless to deal with this man, so he went up to meet him personally.
In this open place, Liu Hang, the weapon wielder, definitely had a great advantage, so Yu Xin did not compete with him in weapon moves, but instead bullied him as fast as lightning, and used his white jade-like right hand to print a palm straight away.
Heart gate.
Liu Hang sneered and concentrated all his internal energy on his left hand. He also printed a palm and used up his internal energy with the other party. A wall of internal energy formed around the two people instantly opened up, making it impossible for others to get close.
Such a stalemate usually has two results. One is that one party exhausts its internal strength and is defeated, the other is that both parties suffer. However, if a third party intervenes, another situation may arise.
A ray of silvery white light flashed across, and there was a wound on the necks of several Jin Yiwei. The wound was not big, but it was fatal...
Qi Bing reached Yu Xin and Liu Hang almost instantly, adding an internal force that shook the two away.
Liu Hang just stepped back and withdrew: "Huh... Do you want the two of us to come together? I'll stay with you till the end!"
Qi Bing's face was still as cold as frost: "If you have already consumed most of your internal energy before competing with me, there is no point."
Yu Xin did not expect Qi Bing to show up. Of course, now that he is here, Yu Xin is still very happy, but she still wants to tease him: "Why are you here? Didn't you say that we will go our separate ways in the future? Could it be that
Did you figure it out and come to get back the one thousand taels of silver?"
Qi Bing didn't look back, only gave her a back view: "I didn't know you were in the capital, and I didn't come here specifically to help you. I just saw the notice in the city that Mr. Liu Hang wanted to kill a rebellious gang, so I thought I'd come here.
It’s just him.”
"Haha... He really knows how to speak. Then you fight him slowly and I won't care about you." After Yu Xin said that, she walked away and headed towards the execution platform again.
A smile appeared on Qi Bing's lips: "Liu Hang, today you and I will decide the winner!"
Liu Hang stood with his gun crossed: "Finally finished talking? I can't wait any longer!"
…………
Mr. Cat walked into a cell with his trademark lazy expression. He was in a good mood and was still whistling.
"Hey, what time is it now? Aren't I going to be beheaded?" Wang Xu's handcuffs have been removed and he is sitting on the ground eating a mediocre meal.
"It's being chopped."
"ah?"
Master Cat smiled and said: "But it's not you who's being chopped, it's a scapegoat."
"Oh~ So that's it, you're the one running it, right? What a buddy!"
Master Mao smiled more and more obscenely: "But Yan Li doesn't know... She should have already started fighting with Liu Hang and Jin Yiwei at the execution ground. If we delay for a while, the ten silver medal Ouchi spies I sent will arrive.
If so, then it will only be a matter of time before she is killed..."
"What!" Wang Xu jumped up in shock.
"Oh, I want to tell you one more thing. Just now, I went to the emperor to report that you are actually a member of the family of Sun Shilang of the Ministry of Rites. Since Sun Shilang has accepted you as a traitor, then he and Baihuahui will naturally do the same.
The emperor was furious when he heard this, and immediately ordered the Jin Yiwei to go to the Sun Mansion to kill everyone.
According to my general understanding of them, when they ransack their homes, they could do anything. Those women... you can imagine how they were treated before they died, right?"
Wang Xu's eyes widened: "What do you mean?"
Mr. Cat opened the door of the cell: "Let's go quickly. There is not much time for you to save people. What do I mean... you will know when you get out."
