Martial arts immortality, I will eventually be invincible

Chapter 71 Will the truth be discovered?

On the day of the execution, Lu Datou led four jailers to lurk in the execution ground to watch the execution and ensure that things went smoothly. The other jailers were on duty as usual, waiting for news in the Tianlao.

Everyone was worried and nervous, and everyone was uneasy until the head fell.

In the Yi-shaped prison and the Jia-shaped prison, everyone was as quiet as a chicken. Everyone could guess what was going on in the private affairs of the C-shaped prison, but no one spoke out. There was not even a word to talk about.

This is a tacit understanding!

No one needs to teach or warn, everyone consciously keeps their mouths shut, pretending that they know nothing, and there is no such thing as a prisoner escaping from prison. There is no such horrifying thing as Li Dai Tao Jiang and covering up the truth.

Because everyone knows that once the incident happens, the Tianlao will be bloodbathed, and no one can save their heads. It is naive to want to report and save your life.

But what the Tianlao lacks most is innocence, and what it lacks least is a bright mind.

I don't know how many people who reported to save their lives have been imprisoned in the Tianlao. Basically, nine out of ten died!

This is a lesson learned from blood and tears!

The experience summed up by the predecessors with their lives must be kept in mind.

However, no one has the heart to do their job, and they are all waiting for the news from the execution ground. They simply gathered in the duty room to play cards and fish.

Even Chen Guanlou, who never gambled, threw five cents of silver on the table to buy horses. This was really the first time in history.

Li Dahong shouted as if he saw something strange, "I've opened my eyes! Let's have a drink at the VIP building tonight, I'll treat you!"

"Li is mighty!"

"Li is generous!"

"Count me in too!" Chen Guanlou said very generously, "No matter how much it costs, it will be counted on my account."

"Chen is generous!"

"Chen is generous!"

Chen Guanlou is really generous. He will definitely fulfill the money he said, and he will never cheat. He will give as much as he wants. Li Dahong was definitely pretending to be generous. He said he would treat everyone, but he would definitely not pay the money. He would always ask the jailers to collect the money.

This kind of thing has happened many times, and the jailers knew it very well. Therefore, when the jailers called Chen Tou generous, they were absolutely sincere and excited from the bottom of their hearts.

Li Dahong, hum, an old coin, he was praised only because he was a squad leader.

If he was not a squad leader, he would have been beaten to death with a black stick.

Chen Guanlou was able to gain a foothold in the A-shaped prison, and few people bothered him, because he was generous and kept his word. Everyone was conquered by his personality charm.

After all, he didn't gamble, so he could save money. He could pay when he spent money. If anyone asked him to borrow money in need, he could also lend money. It was much better than the wealth and prosperity that Li Dahong and others only talked about.

The beheading officer today was Sun Daoning, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice.

When Lu Datou saw him, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Last year, in the jailbreak case, the prisoner No. 13 was kidnapped, and the cell No. 13 is still empty. The higher-ups ordered that until the case is closed, the cell must remain empty to prove the innocence of everyone in the prison.

Why is this so?

It is because the person in charge of this case is the nitpicking and famous Lord Sun.

Lord Sun is a well-known expert in investigating cases.

Lu Datou whispered to the jailers around him: "Behave naturally, don't let Lord Sun see any tricks. If anyone is nervous, get out now, don't implicate everyone's heads."

"Don't worry, brother Datou, we have nothing to be guilty of."

"It's best if you don't feel guilty. This is not the first time you watch an execution, so behave normally as usual."

"Yes!"

The weather is very hot today, and the yamen runners can't stand the heat and wipe their sweat frequently.

Sun Daoning is wearing a full set of official uniforms, and he seems to feel no heat at all, and looks very cool. The second-rank warrior is good, and he is not afraid of cold or heat.

The executioner looked at the sky and asked Sun Daoning in a low voice: "Sir Sun, do you think it's time to execute?"

Sun Daoning put down the teacup in his hand and asked slowly: "Have you verified the identity?"

"Yes, I have verified it. I have verified it when I first came. This is the check, please take a look, Sir Sun."

The executioner handed over the documents. A total of 18 prisoners will be beheaded today, including those from Tianlao, Imperial Prison, Dali Temple, and County Yamen... and so on. All of them are checked, fair and open, and there is no problem.

The executioner thought that Sun Daoning, as the beheading officer, just went through the motions, and it was always done this way. But he didn't expect that after reading the check, Sun Daoning would get up and walk out of the tent despite the heat, come to the prisoners, and verify their identities one by one.

The executioner was immediately unhappy. He was an official of Jingzhao Prefecture, and he did not interfere with the Ministry of Justice. He could have given him no face.

So he also stood up and came to Sun Daoning, "What does Lord Sun mean? Are you doubting that we have not done our job well?"

Without the will of His Majesty and the order of the Prime Minister, what qualifications do the officials of the Ministry of Justice have to question the work of Jingzhao Prefecture? Although the beheading officer is responsible for verifying the identity of the prisoner. However, it is inappropriate to do so and does not conform to the rules of officialdom.

The sedan chair is carried by people, you give me face, I give you face. Not giving face in person, is this to make enemies?

Sun Daoning slightly covered his mouth and nose. Summer is here, and the smell of the prisoner is too strong. He whispered: "Why should Lord Lin be impatient? As the beheading officer, I am responsible for the emperor's order, so it is right to pretend. If I sit still throughout the whole process, someone will scold us for being idle."

Master Lin had a stern face, "Then Master Sun, can you please hurry up and not delay the time? The weather is so hot, it's hard for everyone!"

"Don't worry, I'll be quick."

When Lu Datou saw that Sun Daoning actually wanted to personally verify the identity of the prisoner, he suddenly became nervous. The other jailers were the same as him. They all saw the power of Master Sun's seriousness.

"Brother Datou, what should we do?"

"Calm down! No matter what he does, we just need to do our own thing. As long as we have a clear conscience, he won't think of framing us."

That being said, the jailer's heart was still beating, and his palms began to sweat. If the jailers were not people who had seen big scenes, were proficient in the skills of deceiving superiors and subordinates, and had a big heart, ordinary people would be so guilty that they would wet their pants on the spot.

Lu Datou hoped that the man would be calmer and not let down at the critical moment. Fortunately, the medicine was given in advance, so there was no need to worry about the man saying something inappropriate.

One after another... Soon, Sun Daoning found the 'Kongkong Thief'.

"Raise your head."

The 'Kongkong Thief' was obviously slow to react. He only raised his head after Sun said the second sentence. He was dirty and smelly, his eyes were dazed, and he was facing death. He had collapsed.

Sun Daoning stared at the face in front of him, and without saying a word, he glanced at Lu Datou and others in the crowd.

In an instant, Lu Datou's heart was lifted: Did he find out? Did he find out? Will he find out?
