The Happy Life of Small Officials in Northern Song Dynasty

Xiao Temo cursed endlessly, stretched out his hand to wipe his face, and kept spitting out of his mouth; Su Jin got up with a livid face and said: "Master Xiao, you are too presumptuous."

Xiao Temo pointed to the motionless party member on the ground and said: "You have also seen that this person is so stubborn and rude to me, so I will naturally punish him."

Su Jin said coldly: "Do you think this is your Liao country? The envoy Fu and I arrested the prisoner for you to interrogate. It's to give you face. You use some torture, but you killed him in front of us." He, do you think that the laws of the Song Dynasty are for me? Do you think that me and the rich master are nothing?"

At the end of Xiao Te's argument, Liu Liufu hurriedly tugged at his robe, stepped forward to smooth things over and said, "You two gentlemen calm down, and the chief envoy Xiao also got angry for a while, and besides, he just kicked him, so it's not a big deal."

Su Jin scolded: "That kick was so strong that I could even hear the sound of ribs breaking. Is there still life?"

Liu Liufu hurriedly ordered someone to check the man's injuries. A soldier ran over and lifted the party man's body. He jumped back in fright and exclaimed.

But seeing that party member's head was covered with blood, the bald spot on the top of his head was crushed by the pillars, his face was streaked with blood, but his eyes were wide open, and he looked extremely terrifying under the light.

The soldier boldly stretched out his hand and breathed, got up and said, "The man is already dead."

Su Jin scolded: "Can you not die? Even a cow can't resist this kick, let alone bumped its head against the porch pillar; it's more than a failure. I knew we were going to interrogate myself. Are you judging people or killing people? Is this how your Liao country handles cases?"

Fu Bi also got up and said, "Deputy Envoy Su, the remaining people can't be tried by them anymore, otherwise they will all die, and they won't be able to find out the truth."

Xiao Temo panted with his nostrils open, wanted to attack but couldn't, and Liu Liufu kept making eyes at the side to ask him to restrain himself, Xiao Temo finally softened after thinking about his current situation.

"This... I was impulsive, and I apologize to the two adults; you can rest assured that they will never kill them in the future; besides, your methods will not be able to make them speak."

Su Jin sneered: "We can't make them speak, but you have a way to make them never speak, but you have the ability? I can't kill people? I have a thousand ways to kill people, and none of them is better than yours just now." Brilliant way of killing; bah! What the hell."

Xiao Temo held back his anger and apologized with a smile: "Yes, you are right, I was wrong, but the next method will not kill people, so don't use your righteousness, the most important thing for us is to let them speak, Find out the truth of the matter, and find out what they are about to do. Don't forget that there are three or four of them at large, and they may be watching us from a corner outside my post."

Su Jin sighed and looked at Fu Bi, who nodded slightly.

"Forget it, it's still up to you to interrogate, but if you want to hurt your life again, I don't agree."

"That's natural, look at the means of this envoy." Xiao Temo nodded repeatedly.

Su Jin walked slowly in front of the remaining two members of the Dangxiang tribe. The two men were lying on the ground with their hands and feet tied tightly, with thick wooden wedges stuffed in their mouths. Hearing it in his eyes, seeing it in his eyes, the muscles on his face twitched and trembled uncontrollably.

Su Jin knelt down, looked at the two of them and said, "Both of you, you have all seen it. It's not easy to pass today. I can assure you that even though the lord said that he would not kill you any more, you should keep it." Life is actually not as good as death, because the punishment of living will be more terrible than death. I know that you are all dead men, and you are not afraid of death at all. If you can understand current affairs and tell the truth, I can bear witness to it. Let you regain your freedom, I can give you a large sum of money to let you fly away, the Song Dynasty and Liao Kingdom Xixia can't accommodate you, you can go to Dali, or Jiaozhi Kingdom, or Tubo with enough money to spend your whole life, The world is so big that there is no room for you."

Seeing the dull faces of the two, Su Jin didn't seem to be moved at all, so he said again: "Or if you don't want to live, then I promise to give you a happy ending; in short, live comfortably and freely to enjoy good food and wine The great world, or whether you want to end this life happily, all depends on your own choice. The most unbearable choice is to be stubborn to the end, then you will not be able to live or die, and you will taste that feeling soon arrive."

The eyes of the two party members flickered, but they did not nod or shake their heads; Su Jin sighed, stood up, and said to Xiao Temo: "Master Xiao please, remember what I said, the penalty can be increased, but it can't hurt your life." .”

Xiao Te finally said in his heart: "You kid is actually more vicious than Lao Tzu. You want people to live and die. This is the most painful punishment. Thanks to you, you reprimanded Lao Tzu plausibly."

Xiao Temo rubbed his hands excitedly and said: "Bring that skinny man here."

Two tigers and three tigers did the same, and brought the slightly thinner party member to Xiao Temo.

Xiao Temo stared at the party member with a smile, and said in his mouth: "You are very kind. After seeing your brother die tragically in front of you, you still refuse to confess. You must know in your heart that the envoy will treat you right next time." What are you doing? That's right, the old rules, smash your teeth first, why would you bite your tongue and kill yourself?"

Xiao Temo stretched out his hand and pulled out the wooden wedge from the man's mouth. Two tigers and three tigers skillfully pinched the man's cheeks to prevent him from closing his mouth. Xiao Temo waved the inkstone and smashed it randomly, and the man's mouth was full of teeth soon. The smashed Jingguang, with its mouth open and bleeding, wailed loudly.

Xiao Temo said: "Speak or not? From now on, the emissary will ask three times, and if he does not answer three times, he will be punished."

Xiao Temo asked again and again, but the man still shook his head and said nothing; Xiao Temo said, "That's my fault. Sihu, bring a hammer."

The four tigers agreed, and walked over with a big hammer the size of a sea bowl, and said, "Master, please give me instructions."

Xiao Temo stared and said: "What the fuck, the old rules, start smashing from the little finger, smashing every joint, after smashing the fingers, smashing the toes, smashing the fingers, then smashing the hands, arms, and soles of the feet."

Su Jin felt nauseous, Liaogou is really vicious, he just learned a trick of roasting sweet potatoes from the Bagongshan bandits, and he was already criticized by others, and he only used it once to frighten people, really wanting to kill people, Su Jin will never do it.

It could be seen that the four tigers often do this kind of work, so he quickly untied one of the party man's arms from the rope, put his hand on the ground, stepped on it, and pressed the palm of his hand into a fan shape. Then he spat into the palm of his hand and said, "Sibu Chulai, Sida, Chunxie!"

Xiao Temo scolded: "There are so many nonsense, you say you are ordered to do it, so he doesn't hate you? Besides, he can't understand our Khitan language, so he smashed his little finger first, then divided it into three hammers, one joint at a time. "

The four tigers were born in awe, raised the hammer high, glanced at the position of the finger, and smashed it down with a bang, the ground shook, and the party member let out a heart-piercing cry, writhing like a water snake in pain, Helpless, Sihu stepped on his wrist and couldn't break free at all.

Looking at that hand again, the first joint of the little finger had been smashed flat, including the skin, bones and flesh, and blood gushed out along the fracture, quickly submerging the small piece of minced meat.

Su Jin frowned, Fu Bi covered his face and couldn't bear to watch. Both of them hoped that the party members would speak up quickly, otherwise such cruel punishment would continue. Although Su Jin wanted to stand up and stop this cruel torture, he understood that Party members must be made to speak, and these are insignificant compared to the consequences of the whole incident.

"Say it or not?" Xiao Temo asked three times, but the party member gritted his bare teeth and refused to speak.

"Smash it! Smash it for me." Xiao Temo roared.

The four tigers swung their hammers and smashed again, smashing the two rear joints of the little finger in one breath. The whole little finger was gone, only a piece of broken fleshy foam as soft as ramen was left hanging on the finger post. Passed out from the pain.

"Splash water and wake him up. If you can't take it anymore, why are you pretending to be a hero? You still have nineteen fingers. Let's play slowly and see if it's your mouth or my hammer." Appeared extremely excited.

Su Jin couldn't help standing up and said: "Master Xiao, if you hit it like this, people will die."

Xiao Temo laughed and said: "It's definitely not, it's just leaving some blood, it's impossible to die; I have heard the news about using this method before, and it's tried a hundred times, and it's usually hard enough to hit the second finger. I can't stop, my fingers are connected to my heart."

Su Jin looked at the party member who was faintly awake, and frowned: "Why are you doing this? You are someone else's chess piece, why bother to make such a sacrifice for the person behind the scenes? Do you have any difficulties? Tell me."

The man rolled his eyes, his lips trembled, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. Looking at Su Jin, he shook his head, and said softly and vaguely: "I'm here to die. It's useless to torture me."

Su Jin said angrily: "You are really stubborn, no matter what you say, I can't help you if you don't know the current affairs; but can you control yourself and others? Look at that fat man over there , I was so scared that I peed in my crotch, I dare say, he will definitely explain."

The thin party member shook his head and said: "Others are other people's business, I just take care of myself; I don't want anything when I'm about to die, and I don't like you, after all, each is the master; After I die, I will bury my body, and I will not suffer from the ants, insects, and wild dogs, and I will turn my head to the northwest, where is my hometown."

Su Jin admired secretly in his heart, such a tough guy is indeed rare, it is easy to ask for death, and a real hero is one who can survive the torture of neither life nor death, but this person is actually loyal to work for Yuan Hao, no matter what Su Jin thinks I don't understand, could it be that the western thief Yuan Hao is actually a person with such a great charisma?
