There are some very strange things here, all covered with a thick layer of dust.
I saw a rusty iron chair, but if I looked closely, I saw that it was different from ordinary chairs. This rotten iron chair had three legs. The legs were very high, and the buttocks were as big as a fist.
of holes.
It must be an old thing with a mess like this, but it doesn't know what it is used for, and the shape is very weird, very similar to... the high chair that was placed on the bar counter in the early years. People can put their feet up after sitting on it.
In addition to the iron chairs, there are also some strange things here.
There is a large iron bucket with a lid. There is a hole more than 20 centimeters in diameter in the iron lid. I don't know what it is used for.
In addition, you can also see rusty iron chains and an old brush here.
After looking over his head carefully, he took a deep breath and suddenly said:
"I recognize it. This is a place of torture, a torture chamber. It may be a secret room used to punish cave quarrymen."
He turned around, pointed at the rusty iron bucket and continued: "Do you know what this thing is?"
I thought for a while: "It looks like a shower head, isn't that what is shown on TV, but those are made of wood, and this one is made of iron."
"Yunfeng, you are only half right."
The head said: "This can be called a bathtub, but it was not used for bathing before."
"I met a woman in my 1990s who specializes in collecting torture instruments used to torture people. She wrote a book on ancient torture instruments and submitted it to Jiangsu Publishing House, but the content was too bloody and they refused to publish it. Later, she illegally printed several books.
I’ve looked through it.”
"This thing existed in the early Qing Dynasty, and it was called a dirty bucket." Gaotou told me.
"Dirty bucket? What do you mean?"
I couldn't understand, so I explained a few sentences.
It is said that the "dirty bucket" was invented by a man named Xu. At that time, the Qing army entered the customs and asked people to shave their hair and leave braids. "The hair and skin of the body should be respected by the parents." This order was strongly opposed, especially by some
Scholars would rather be killed than have their hair braided.
The man surnamed Xu said: "Want to clean it up? Okay, let you guys do it." Later, he asked a blacksmith to make this kind of bucket.
First, people take off their clothes, lift the iron cover, and sit naked in the bucket. Then close the lid, because there is a hole in the lid, and the person's head will be exposed.
At this time, a brush is dipped in sugar and honey and brushed onto the person's face. In summer, the sweet things will attract ants, mosquitoes, flies, etc., and the person sitting in the bucket will feel itchy and unbearable, but because only the head is exposed outside, it is difficult to scratch
It was itchy and couldn't be scratched, and soon it was bitten by ants and mosquitoes, leaving it unrecognizable.
During this period, food was given as normal, and there was a lot of food. If you couldn't eat, you would stuff it in. It was always convenient to eat when your belly was full.
The big ones and the small ones can only be put into buckets. Gradually, more and more things accumulate, maggots and bacteria breed, the odor is unbearable, and they basically lead to death from infection.
Maybe it reminds me of a scene that may have happened here. Xiaoxuan coughed and retched, staying far away from the bucket.
"Boss, what is this for?" I asked again about the iron chair that looked like a bar stool. There was also a fist-sized hole on the surface of the chair.
He hesitated for a few seconds, frowned and said, "This thing is called a flower chair, or a pear blossom chair. It existed briefly in the Ming Dynasty, very rarely. This is the first time I have seen the real thing."
"Hoo! Hoo!" Douyazai blew the dust hard, coughed and said, "Pear Blossom Chair? The name sounds pretty good."
"What sounds good."
He shook his head and said, "Extorting confessions through torture, and forcing people to speak. These are things that only perverts in ancient times came up with."
The boss told me how to use this thing. It was the first time I heard it. Before, I only knew about tiger stools and hand plates.
I'm afraid someone is eating, so I'll try not to sound disgusting. This thing is real.
The "Flower Chair" can be used by both men and women. The method is to tie the person to the chair, take off the pants, and hang the legs in the air. Isn't there a fist-sized hole in the chair surface?
At this time, the torturer got under the ground, inserted a big pear with a stick, and stuffed the pear inside, which can hurt the person to death.
Once it's stuffed in, it can't be pulled out, so I keep poking it back and forth with a stick until the pear blossoms.
There are more stone carvings in Guizailing than the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, so the amount of limestone used would be very large. I don’t know who looked at these stonemasons back then, but they can tell through these torture tools.
I don’t know how many masons that man killed. It is possible that this man can be found in the history books.
