Journey To the West From The Qin Dynasty

Chapter 201: The cultivator is unknown, the tortoise dreams

Li Jue had to explain again, saying: "Master Meng, it looks like the Yintang is black, but it's actually a recent illness."

"But when I get better, my face will be red. It doesn't affect my work at all, let alone beheading King Qi."

Zongcheng looked puzzled and said, "Really? You have to think about it clearly. If you fall ill or die after beheading the King of Qi, you have violated Qin's law, and there may be three tribes at that time."

Li Jue was stunned for a moment. Is there still such a statement?

The chief executive said: "It was proposed by Tingwei Li Si. He felt that as an executioner, he could kill ordinary prisoners and die, but it would be a sin if he killed an important person."

"If it spreads out, people will gossip and say that we killed the wrong person, that we have been punished by heaven, and that we will directly repay the executioner. Therefore, we must ensure that the executioner is still alive after killing the big man, otherwise the three tribes of Yi clans."

Li Jue was shocked and said, "If that's the case, why don't you let the executioner eat and drink well, suppress the evil spirits, then it will be fine."

The chief executive sighed: "There are too many executioners in Daqin, and their status is low, that is, you are the director, so you have a salary, and you can eat beheading wine. It's good that others can eat a full meal."

Li Jue sighed, this is the sorrow of the executioner.

Daqin really had too many prisoners who needed to be beheaded or dealt with. Most of the executioners were people who couldn't afford to eat, so they became desperate.

Naturally, human life is cheaper than grass.

If in later generations, especially during the Tang and Ming Dynasties, there were only a handful of people beheading people in the country every year, and the job of executioner would be more sought-after.

Li Jue felt that it was a bit like a demon slayer in the sky.

There are relatively few executioners, and they all need food and drink to provide. If the mortal world is more relaxed, even the prisoner's family will send money. Get rid of him and start faster, don't torture the prisoner.

Anyway.

Daqin's executioner has no human rights.

The chief executive said: "Director Li, think about it carefully. If you don't do it well, then you will die, it will not be your business alone."

Li Jue said: "Don't think about it, Mr. Meng, I am willing to die for the country. If something really happens, the three Yi clans will not hesitate."

In fact, he has no clan in this world anymore. For him, the so-called three tribes of Yi will only die to him.

However, Li Jue wouldn't care. If he really suffocated and died, could he still be whipped?

He couldn't kill King Qi, but he was not happy.

The Chief Cheng sighed and said, "Director Li, why are you doing this? If you get the salary for killing King Qi, you don't have to. It is said that you have some business dealings with Jia Sizhen, so it shouldn't be like this."

"But if you say that you are doing it for fame, you shouldn't. What the **** do our executioners want that fame? If you go out, you will be spurned even more. What's more, the King Qi you killed is a little different. He is a cultivator."

Speaking of which, his voice was a little lower, and he said, "Do you know that Qi Wangjian has been instructed by an immortal, and he has been cultivating immortals. It is rumored that he can not eat or drink for three months, and he is immortal."

"If you kill a cultivator, who knows if you will be plagued with bad luck, and who knows if you will suddenly die suddenly. So, think carefully about this matter, let the whole department have a life-and-death lottery."

Now that the chief is already the chief of the Twelve Prisons in Xianyang, he naturally has to think about the overall situation.

but.

He would still think about the prisoners in the Dongcheng Department, and said in a low voice, "But don't worry, I will operate from it, so that no one in Dongcheng will be drawn, you can rest assured."

Li Jue said quickly, "Sir, you don't have to, I'm really fine."

"I don't care about money. As you said, I have a business with Director Jia, and I don't lack money. Secondly, I don't care about fame. Otherwise, I can quit my job and become a great calligrapher with the help of calligraphy."

"I don't do it for money or fame, but only for the country and the people. You have already said that the executioner who killed Qi Wangjian must not have an accident, otherwise it will damage the reputation of Daqin. If I don't go today, another person may not be able to accept it. Down."

The chief executive let out a long sigh and said, "Director Li, your mind is not as good as that of an official. Anyway, since you insist on doing this, I will go to Tingwei Li Xiang and let me know the situation."

After Li Jue thanked him, the chief executive got up and left.

after.

People who have been detained in prison came to inquire about the situation one after another. When they knew that the chief executive had said that they would be drawn for life and death, and they were not allowed to participate, everyone was excited.

They don't want to kill the immortals. Now there are rumors and rumors that if they kill Qi Wangjian, they will lose their life.

He also said that if Da Qin did this, he would definitely suffer retribution.

Therefore, Li Sicai specially proposed that the executioner must be strong and physically strong, and he must not be affected by the evil spirit.

Otherwise, when the time comes, Qi Wangjian will be beheaded, and instead his life will be taken in, which will make people see jokes and answer gossip.

but.

When everyone heard that Li Jue insisted on beheading Qi Wangjian, everyone was stunned.

Niu San said in shock: "Seventh brother, what are you doing? There's no need. Your seal hall is black, and it looks like you will die soon. Why can't you live with yourself?"

Li Jue glanced at him and said, "I won't go, you go?"

Niu San was stunned and said, "Lord Meng has already said, let others go, the dead daoist won't die, so why should we go?"

Hu Man was also a little worried, and said: "Li Jue, let's forget it. The people who were killed in the past, even Lu Buwei, are only mortals. This King Qi is a cultivator, and it is not easy to kill."

Li Jue said righteously: "It's not easy to kill, can you retreat?"

"I won't go there today, I'll let someone else go there. Then the executioner will behead Qi Wangjian, afflicted with illness, and he will die suddenly. He will be killed by the three tribes of Yi, and he will be left with a bad reputation for thousands of years. Is this appropriate!?"

He grieved and said: "If I step back today, other people will have to come forward, and in the end, I will die, and the three tribes will be left. Our executioners have a tragic background, and we have to implicate our family. Why bother!?"

When everyone heard this, their hearts were shocked.

Li Jue's heart was really too shocking, and it moved them all for a while.

Hu Man's eyes were even more red. The man she saw was just like that for the country and the people.

Niu San also bowed his head in shame, and the others even more so, all of them were admired and ashamed at the same time.

"it is good!"

"well said!"

At this moment, the eldest son Fusu walked in from the door.

He stroked his palm and said, "Director Li, you are worthy of being the backbone of my Daqin. These words from the bottom of my heart really make me feel ashamed."

"Da Qin is really lucky to have you."

Everyone saw the eldest son one after another, and at the same time gave way.

Li Jue cupped his hands and said, "The eldest son doesn't work in the grass house, so how can you come here? What you said just now is really not worth mentioning."

Fu Su said: "There are three masters and nine ministers in the grass house, and there is no problem without me."

"However, the execution of Qi Wangjian this time is impossible without Director Li." His face was full of excitement, and he said impassively: "Director Li, I originally knew what you were like and what happened to Wangjian Qi, I must have Come forward, and I'm here to persuade you."

Then he smiled wryly and shook his head: "But now it seems that I am not qualified to persuade you."

After speaking, he patted Li Jue on the shoulder.

Li Jue smiled. In fact, he was really not that good. He simply killed King Qi, and he was able to sell it to the Yin-Yang Life and Death Scroll.

There is only good for him, no harm.

He doesn't have any of the problems these people are worried about.

but.

He couldn't tell.

The eldest son Fusu gave Li Jue a few more words of encouragement, intending to leave, but Li Jue looked tired and seemed to be overworked.

He didn't want to help Su die early. When the time comes, a new person will be the emperor. He would rather change the dynasty.

Then he screened the crowd and asked, "Eldest son, recently the state of Qi has been destroyed, and there is no war in Daqin, so I should be relieved. Why are you working harder?"

Fusu said: "Let Director Li see that the state of Qi has been destroyed, but my Daqin is about to establish a state, and many things need to be dealt with. At the same time, Daqin needs to manage more than ten times more land, so it is naturally more busy. "

Li Jue said: "Still pay attention to rest."

Fusu smiled and shook his head, and said, "No way, I don't have time to rest. There are too many things happening recently, whether it's the matter of King Qi, the establishment of a country, or the invitation to immortals, or General Wang Jian beheading Qi prisoners. I need to take care of everything, so I can’t be busy at all.”

Li Jue was taken aback, there seemed to be a lot of things involved.

King Qi and Liguo are both fine, but about the matter of inviting immortals, he had previously stated as an expert that there were no immortals, so how could Ying Zheng still keep in mind?

Secondly, Wang Jian killed the prisoner of Qi State. He could not have made such a low-level mistake~www.readwn.com~ But after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly understood the reason why Wang Jian did this.

Gong Gao Zhenzhu, if you don't do something wrong, if the six kingdoms are destroyed, it should be the Wang family who suffers.

Wang Jian has always done a good job of these things.

Fusu added: "Actually, these things are fine. The most important thing is that I had a dream last night, a very long dream, and I was very tired when I woke up in the morning."

Li Jue was taken aback and said, "What dream?"

Fusu said: "Didn't there be a demon in the city some time ago, causing chaos in the world? Fortunately, there was an unnamed expert who took action to subdue the demon and subdue the demon, and the disaster was avoided."

Li Jue nodded with a smile, the nameless master is right in front of you, you can see how much I look like before.

Fusu continued: "In my dream last night, I dreamed of the Turtle Immortal who fled from the very beginning. He said it was the Turtle Prime Minister of the Crystal Palace of the Weihe River. He was blinded by the monster and made a mistake this time, and he was about to be caught and beheaded. Please help me. he."

Li Jue was stunned, looking strange.

Fusu said: "I was very scared at first, I didn't know if it was true or not, but after careful inquiries, I realized that it might be true. I usually dream, but I can't remember it when I wake up, but this thing is very clear."

Li Jue smiled without saying a word.

Fusu continued: "So I suspect that the immortal turtle is dreaming, it is probably true. However, he didn't tell me how to save him. I dreamed all night and thought about it early in the morning, so I was tired."

Then he said, "Director Li, you are the smartest person on weekdays, tell me, what should I do?"
