Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 156: The sun is high and blood is flowing everywhere

They stayed up until late at night the day before, and after dawn the grand event that Cui Mingsheng had been planning for a long time began.

Show your head to the public!

A few days ago, in Sandao City and its surrounding areas, runners from government offices had been beating gongs and announcing public notices along the way. This was a rare event in Sandao City that only happened once in decades, and anyone who could spare the time and considered themselves brave would not miss the opportunity to take a look.

Therefore, the soldiers guarding outside the east gate, together with the strong laborers recruited by the government, cleared a large open space, enough for thousands or even tens of thousands of people to watch.

Juan had been waiting in the lobby of the government office since early in the morning, arriving earlier than Cui Mingsheng and Qin Zhong, but the index and middle fingers of his right hand were wrapped in gauze and splints today, and the bones were broken. Even if he had the physique of a cultivator, it would take at least half a month or even a month for them to recover.

But this injury did not affect Juan's mood. Even his face, which had long been accustomed to being cold, showed a rare smile.

This made the governor of the prefecture, Liu Chuan, and the general Wu Yuntong, who came to greet him early in the morning, subconsciously look at the sun in the sky. Why didn't the sun rise from the west? Why did this damn eunuch suddenly change his face? He became so friendly? Was he planning something bad? He immediately became more alert.

But the matter is actually not complicated. These big guys were the first to know about Juan’s humiliation in the police station last night.

Cui Mingsheng even went to find Liu Chuan overnight, hoping that if Juan held a grudge against Yang Qian and wanted to deal with Yang Qian, he hoped that Liu Chuan could help take care of him.

Cui Mingsheng didn't want his lucky general to be harmed by a eunuch.

But now it seems that Juan is not angry? The file was directly passed and a positive review was given. He did not get angry even though his finger was broken.

Is it so grand?

Or is he really holding back on being evil?
Nearly two hundred bandits who had come along in a mighty procession were given special care in the dungeon these days. Although the food was not good, they were well fed and were not tortured, so they came out of the dungeon in good spirits.

There was a long shackle for every five people, and their necks were locked to the same thick wood. Their hands were locked behind their backs, and their feet were shackled. There was no room for them to struggle.

The first thing that greeted these bandits was small stones. They were hit on the head and bruised, but not so bad that they would bleed or even die. These stones were specially prepared by the government at the corners of every street. They were worried that the people would kill people when they were venting their anger, which would be a good opportunity for these bandits.
You must know that what the governor of the prefecture approved today was not beheading, but beheading!

The common people also knew the severity of the punishment, so they just threw a few small stones at the thieves. They followed the parade of bandits along several main streets of Sandai City, and finally went out of the east gate and arrived at the execution ground not far from the gate.

There were five guillotines in a row on the execution ground.

Behind it is a high platform, used for supervising executions.

When the sun was high in the sky, Cui Mingsheng began to speak on the stage, followed by the Palace Master Liu Chuan, and finally Wu Yuntong. The only one who didn't show up was the Third City General Qin Zhong, because he wasn't the chief of the Third City's bandit and demon extermination department, so he had no right to speak on the stage.

Juan, on the other hand, sat on the sidelines without saying a word.

"The time has come! Bring the prisoner!"

A group of five people came up, and then when Cui Mingsheng waved the flag in his hand, ten strong men, in groups of two, came up together with the guillotine to chop down fiercely.

The seven-foot-long guillotine snapped bones and tendons, and screams were heard. The five prisoners were cut in half, and their intestines and stomachs spilled all over the ground.

The bloody scene made the onlookers take a few steps back, and many of them vomited because they couldn't stand it. The big guys in the stands still looked calm and watched coldly as another group of five people were guillotined.

No matter how you brag about how tough and manly you are, when you lie under the guillotine, you see your former accomplices who were chopped in half and still wailing as they watch their intestines spill out, and they can't die for a while. It's normal for this kind of psychological pressure to scare people to the point of mental collapse.

But thieves and bandits, they have done so many evil things that no matter how they die, it is not excessive. It is reasonable for Liu Chuan to use some cruel means to deter the scoundrels. Who cares what the thieves and bandits think? They deserve it!
Begging for mercy, screaming, cursing. In the end, he was still ruthlessly pressed under the guillotine and became part of the highlight of this "public display".

Even when the tenth group was killed, the first group of bandits were not yet dead, their screams just became weaker and were drowned by the screams of the others behind them.

The executioners behind them started to clean up the intestines and stomachs on the ground, but because it was too slippery, several people fell.

A shovelful of intestines and stomachs filled several baskets
The sun was shining brightly in the sky, but the thousands of people watching felt a chill all over their bodies. Their livers and gallbladders were trembling.

There were nearly two hundred people, and the execution took nearly an hour. The bloody smell made people frown even in an open area.

"Report! There were a total of 192 prisoners, 181 of whom were beheaded, and the remaining 11 died of fright before the execution. I have come to hand over the order!"

Cui Mingsheng nodded and waved his hand to signal that they could withdraw. Finally, Liu Chuan spoke up, leaving everyone in Sandao City with a bloody lesson. If you are a bandit, it's fine if you are not caught, but if you are caught, you will die miserably. Therefore, you have to think twice before doing anything.

After returning to the government office, Yang Qian thought that his affairs were over and all that remained were the occasions for bigwigs like Cui Mingsheng.

Unexpectedly, Hu An's suggestion prompted the governor of the prefecture, Liu Chuan, to speak up and call Yang Qian over as well.

A small police chief was forced to sit at the main table among the big bosses.

"Sir Cui, Juan has a request that I would like to make. I hope you can help me." During the dinner, Juan suddenly raised his glass to toast Cui Mingsheng, and his words were so kind for the first time.

Cui Mingsheng quickly stood up, took the glass with both hands and drank it all in one gulp.

"Vice-Attendant Hu, please speak."

"Yang Qian is extremely capable and thoughtful. It is a waste of his talent to be a police chief in Sandao City. The Capital City Major Case Division is in urgent need of talents like him. If Lord Cui is willing to let him go, I will take Yang Qian with me when I return this time."

"what?"

Not only was Cui Mingsheng dumbfounded, but Yang Qian at the table was also dumbfounded. What was going on? Didn't anyone ask for his opinion? We were going to the capital now?

But before Cui Mingsheng could speak, Liu Chuan beside him interrupted and said, "The Major Case Division has gathered the best soldiers and generals from all over the country, and its strength is extraordinary. But our Jizhou Prefecture is located in a remote area, and there is a shortage of talents all year round. We finally found a great talent, but we can't keep up with him. How can we give him to Deputy Attendant Hu? Deputy Attendant, you should just drink and eat, don't think about these things!"

"What a waste of talent!" Juan snorted, seeming dissatisfied with Liu Chuan interrupting him.

"Deputy Hu, you don't have to provoke us. Yang Qian is so young and it is definitely not a waste of his talent to be a head constable. Now that he has made great contributions, he is under consideration for an exceptional promotion. Don't worry, the Jizhou government will not let such a talented person be used as a petty official."
