Chapter 31 fourth quarter
On this day, on the tallest tower of Mingchongmen in the capital, the "Punishment of the Chief Evil" that had been abolished in this country for 300 years was carried out, and everyone inside and outside the city witnessed it with their own eyes.
According to the criminal law, a prisoner on death row was cut for a total of 1,200 knives before he died. Six knifemen took turns to execute the execution, and another assistant shouted out the number of knives.Starting from the chest and back, to the hands, legs, genitals, and facial features... the whole body's flesh and skin were cut into thin strips no wider than your fingers, and finally exposed outside the city together with the internal organs for crows and vultures to peck at; Scatter in the rivers in the southeast and northwest.
After the execution was over, the blood stains on the roof of Ming Chongmen couldn't be cleaned for some reason, leaving a pool of red marks that could be seen from afar for a long time.Since then, Ming Chongmen has had an additional title among the people, called "Chimen".
That beach of red marks was the first thing Di Bin saw outside the city when he hurried back to Beijing.
On the ground of the vast white courtyard, there is a line of lonely footprints. Di Bin, whose whole body was covered in white clothes, was wet with ice and snow, shivering violently, and walked into the hall master's mansion in the "Big Tree Main Hall".He is the only "big tree hall" character who can go deep into here without questioning. He stood in front of the building, looking up at the boss' room on the second floor.There was still light in the windows. "Boss, haven't you slept yet?" His trembling voice was not particularly loud, but it was unusually loud in this quiet night. A silhouette appeared on the paper window. When Di Bin saw that familiar figure, his heart was agitated violently. "Boss... I have something to ask you." The shadow on the paper window did not respond. "That day, you asked me to go find Fifth Brother..." Di Bin's face was as pale as paper because of the cold. "...Do you really want to reconcile with him?..." The shadow still didn't answer. "Boss, tell me... I just want to hear an answer from your mouth. If we are still brothers." After a long time, the shadow on the window spoke. "Why do you still ask this? Everything is over." The last glimmer of hope in Di Bin's eyes was finally extinguished. He touched the "Killing Grass" stuck obliquely at his waist, and his mind went blank. "Yes...it's over..." he murmured. The right hand is held on the "killing grass" handle. —Thirty-four years... everything is a lie... "Boss...can I come up and see you?" The shadow remained silent for a while, and finally said quietly: "If you really want to come in, then come in. My last righteous brother." Di Bin held the Buddha statue around his neck with his left hand.Hold it tight, tight. "OK." With his right hand backhanded, he pulled out the two-foot frost-like blade of "Killing Grass", and pushed open the downstairs door with the pommel. He hesitated for a moment, then stepped into the door. The other leg couldn't get in. Zao Qi and a dozen of his subordinates appeared from the dark front hall like ghosts, and quickly blocked Di Liuye. Zaoqi Lightning stretched out his claws and grabbed Di Bin's wrist holding "Killing Grass". Di Bin wanted to break free from his wrist, but Zao Qi's grip strength did not fade with the years. Zao Qi silently looked at Di Bin's face and shook his head. Di Bin understood, he closed his eyes and gave up resisting. The sound of "killing the grass" falling on the floor is particularly chilling in the eerily quiet night. The rest of the guards surrounded Di Bin.None of them tried to arrest him. After all, he was still Di Liuye of "Dashutang". When he was escorted out of the gate, Di Bin turned around and looked up at the shadow on the window again. Everything for thirty-four years. Since then, nations have continued to rise and fall.Mountains were flattened and rivers dried up.Those vigorous past events, the feelings of life and death, will not be recorded in any history or stories, and no one will talk about them, and then quietly disappear in the wind of the night. "Boss... let me see you." "Bai Dou, you will." The shadow said without any emotion. "I'll keep watching you until the last moment."
