Chapter 47 Collusion with evil spirits will never be tolerated (Third update)
Lin'an City today is much more lively than in the past.
Because today is the day when the Zhao family will be beheaded.
Zhao family.
It can be regarded as a famous family in Lin'an City.
Zhao Fang has been in power for twenty years, and the Zhao family has benefited a lot from it, and its power has grown extremely rapidly.
In the eyes of the people of Lin'an City.
The Zhao family is heaven.
But things are different now.
The Zhao family was confiscated and exterminated, and they never regained their former prestige.
Seeing many government officials pressing the Zhao family members in prison cars to the execution ground, it immediately attracted the attention of many people.
in the crowd.
There are also some people in the world who are watching all this silently.
"The newly appointed magistrate is not simple!"
Cui Cheng suddenly sighed.
Zhao Yue, who was standing next to him, had doubts on her pretty face: "Why did senior brother say that?"
"There was a lot of commotion last night. Today the Yamen brought out some corpses, and a lot of people died. If I guessed correctly, the ones who attacked the Yamen last night should be the strong men of the Eternal Life Alliance.
Zhao Fang is a member of the Eternal Life Alliance. Now that the Zhao family is about to be confiscated and exterminated, the Eternal Life Alliance will not do anything.
If the Eternal Life Alliance had succeeded yesterday, no one from the Zhao family would have been beheaded today."
Cui Cheng looked calm and looked at the prison cars carrying the Zhao family.
"The Yaoxie who was able to destroy a village was probably in the middle to late stage of Tongmai. Even so, it was lost in the hands of that person. The person standing behind the Eternal Life Alliance is Yaoxie, but the one who is now in charge of the Eternal Life Alliance is
Also a monster.
They are not fools. A powerful man who was sent here again after being damaged by demons comparable to those in the middle and late stages of Tongmai, is at his worst in the late stages of Tongmai, and may even have reached the innate realm.
Even so, he could not successfully rob the prison.
This magistrate's strength is by no means as simple as it seems on the surface."
From some things.
Cui Chengcheng can think of more things.
If he were a demon from the Eternal Alliance, after knowing Shen Changqing's strength, he would never send some weaklings to die.
This way.
One can imagine Shen Changqing's strength.
Zhao Yue looked at Shen Changqing, who was leading the horse on horseback, with a look of shock in his eyes.
"Senior Brother, what you are saying is that this Master Shen is very likely to be an innate powerhouse?"
"Even if it is not innate, it will definitely not be too different. I thought that the Demon Suppression Division is now entangled by evil spirits from all over the world, and it is impossible to send too many strong men to a small place like Lin'an City.
Now it seems that I was wrong.
The foundation of the Demon-Suppressing Division cannot be compared to that of Jianghu sects."
Cui Cheng looked emotional.
The strongest member of the Guiyuan Sword Sect he belongs to is Xiantian.
Even though you are already in the late stage of Tongmai, if you want to break through the innateness, it will definitely not take a short time.
Moreover, there is also a matter of chance involved.
On the rivers and lakes.
The total number of warriors in the Tongmai Realm is quite large, but once they reach the innate level, the number drops sharply.
Any innate strong person has a high status in the world.
So after understanding that Shen Changqing might be an innate powerhouse, Cui Cheng's inner vigilance became much higher.
Hear the words.
Zhao Yue nodded clearly, looking at Shen Changqing's back, there seemed to be some changes.
——
Dongcheng, execution ground.
In front of the execution ground, a shade shed has been built. Shen Changqing sat inside, while Shi Qingsheng stood aside and waited.
The prison car escorting the Zhao family stopped next to the execution site.
There were more than twenty prison cars, each with six or seven people pressed on it.
no way.
There were only so many prison cars in the Yamen, and they could only be packed together.
"Take the man down!"
Shen Changqing waved his hand and gave the order immediately.
Hear the words.
The government officials in front of the prison cars immediately opened several prison cars and forcibly dragged the people inside out. Some people cried and screamed that they could not get out, but others looked numb and allowed the government officials to drag them out.
Standing on the execution ground, the shackled Zhao Li suddenly glanced at Cui Cheng in the crowd, and a glimmer of hope arose in his heart.
But when he noticed Cui Cheng avoiding his gaze, he disappeared without a trace as soon as he rose.
After taking a look at the location of the prison van, Zhao Li turned around and looked at the location of the shed.
"Master Shen, the Zhao family knows that they have committed serious crimes and have no objections to the court's verdict. However, some members of the clan are also innocent. I wonder if you can be generous and let them live."
After saying that, Zhao Li knelt down simply.
Shen Changqing looked indifferent: "I act in accordance with the law. The court's verdict said that the nine tribes were implicated, so the nine tribes should be implicated.
Presumably, those present were not the only ones who were beheaded today. The other branches of the Zhao family in other places also suffered the same fate.
You must know that the crime of colluding with evil spirits cannot be forgiven."
"If you want to blame - blame Zhao Fang for colluding with the evil spirits and abandoning the human race!"
“If you want to blame—just blame them for being members of the Zhao family!”
"grown ups--"
Zhao Li looked anxious and wanted something more.
Shen Changqing waved his hand and interrupted him: "It's noon, execution!"
Give the order.
Immediately, a Yamen officer came forward and forced Zhao Li down. The executioner, who had already prepared a mouthful of wine, sprayed it directly on the shining blade, and then chopped it down.
Swish——
The long knife fell and the bodies were separated.
The bloody scene directly caused the onlookers to scream, and at the same time, the faces of the Zhao family turned pale.
"father!"
Zhao Mingye screamed in grief and anger. He still can't believe that the Zhao family, which is at its peak, will one day be pressed on the execution ground and beheaded one by one.
Zhao Li died.
It made Zhao Mingye want to struggle and rush over.
But as soon as he took a step, the government officials on the left and right held him down and forced him to kneel on the ground.
"Cut again!"
Shen Changqing looked cold and then ordered.
The executioner carries out the execution.
Suddenly, heads fell again.
"No, I don't want to die——"
"Why, it's Zhao Fang who colludes with the evil spirits. Why do you want to kill us? I don't accept it!"
"I'm just a servant of the Zhao family, I'm innocent!"
Everyone was crying and shouting, trying to survive, but it was of no use.
The long knife fell.
Just heads rolling in.
For a time, the execution platform was stained red with blood.
Whenever someone was beheaded, government officials would carry the body down and throw it aside.
The strong smell of blood made many people feel strong discomfort.
"This Master Shen is really cruel!"
Seeing the Zhao family being beheaded one after another, Cui Cheng himself felt a little nauseous, but looking at Shen Changqing sitting in the shed, his expression did not change from beginning to end, and even his eyes were like a pool of stagnant water.
It can be seen from this.
This county magistrate shows such disregard for life.
Zhao Yue, who was standing aside, had already turned pale at this time.
Looking at the fallen heads and the strong smell of blood, she felt her stomach churn and she had the urge to vomit.
"Senior, senior brother, how about we go back!"
Zhao Yue pulled Cui Cheng's sleeves and couldn't speak smoothly.
Cui Cheng looked at his junior sister's pale face and shook his head: "Let's see, if you want to travel in the world, you will eventually have to face these things in the future. It will be good for you to get used to it now."
Although he was not feeling well, he had no intention of leaving.
These are troubled times.
Bodies can be seen everywhere.
If you can't even endure these scenes, how will you be able to walk in the world in the future?
After hearing what Cui Cheng said, Zhao Yue could only endure the discomfort in her heart.
On the other side of the crowd, there were also two young men, watching the scene on the execution ground.
"After we go back, we should carefully inquire about Master Shen's information. He may be a strong resistance to us in capturing the demon blood!"
Xiao Bo's voice was low and his face was solemn.
"Senior brother, what does our Heavenly Sword Sect's seizure of demon essence and blood have to do with him? Could it be that the imperial court also wants to get involved?" Xiao Qu, who was standing aside, had a puzzled look on his face.
"Whether the imperial court intervenes or not, it is impossible to guarantee what Mr. Shen will think about the demon blood. The strong men of the Eternal Life Alliance just made some small noises in the Yamen last night. This person's strength is unfathomable.
As the saying goes, if you know yourself and your enemy, you will always be victorious, and it will not go wrong if you know more."
Xiao Bo shook his head slightly and explained patiently.
in his imagination.
In the battle at the Yamen last night, the Eternal Life Alliance should have killed all the people in the Yamen.
After all, if they missed the first time and took action the second time, the Eternal Life Alliance must be well prepared.
But even so.
The Eternal Alliance still failed.
Although some people in the Yamen also died, the fact that people from the Zhao family were beheaded now is enough to explain everything.
On the execution ground.
Members of the Zhao family were beheaded one after another.
Some are direct descendants of the Zhao family, and some are servants of the Zhao family. No matter how they cry, they will inevitably end up with their heads on the ground.
Shen Changqing sat there and watched all this silently.
In his eyes, no one in the Zhao family is innocent.
Those servants and the nursing home have all signed the deed of betrayal, and in principle they are considered members of the Zhao family.
When the Zhao family was in its prime, they worked for the Zhao family and enjoyed many benefits. Now that the Zhao family is in trouble, they should naturally suffer the corresponding consequences.
Time passes little by little.
One after another, members of the Zhao family were taken to the execution ground and beheaded.
There are only a few executioners, and it takes a lot of energy to ensure that the head falls to the ground with every blow.
to this end.
Some executioners take a short rest.
In nearly two hours, all members of the Zhao family were beheaded.
A large number of corpses were piled together, which looked shocking.
A large amount of water was poured on the execution ground, which was no different from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
"Lord Qi, one hundred and eighty-seven members of the Zhao family have been beheaded. I don't know what we should do next!"
Shi Qingsheng reported in a low voice. If you look carefully, you can see that his face is also pale.
Shen Changqing nodded slightly, stood up from his seat and walked outside the shed, looking at the piled corpses.
"The Zhao family colluded with evil spirits and betrayed the human race. According to the laws of the Qin Dynasty, they have all been beheaded and publicly displayed. Now I have given an order to bury all the bodies of the Zhao family in a mass grave outside the city. No one is allowed to go to worship."
"At the same time, I also hope that other people can learn from this."
"Anyone who colludes with evil spirits and betrays the human race will implicate the nine races and will never be tolerated!"
