"Dashuai, the list of scholars who are against us has been listed, there are six Jinshi, including one second-class Jinshi and five third-class Jinshi; There are 51 Gongshi, 63 students of Guozijian, 12 officials of the capital, and 13 officials of the third and fourth grades, all of whom have been arrested. Gao Dejie stepped forward and bowed to Wu Yingqi.

Wu Yingqi raised his hand and sentenced these scholars to death: "There is nothing to say, these people have hypocrisy in their hearts, and they are not all the way to us." Pull it to the west of the city, dig a big pit, and bury it all. ”

"No!" Gao Dejie stepped back.

More than 100 people were all tied up in a string and escorted by the wolf-like soldiers of Wu to the northwest suburbs of Yanjing. Along the way, many ordinary people who watched the excitement followed all the way, preparing to see the execution of these scholars.

"A lot of people who read have been arrested!" Someone lamented.

"I heard that I was arrested for interceding for the Tartar Puppet Emperor." A middle-aged man on the side said.

A white-haired old man sneered and said, "Good catch! These scholars, still nostalgic for the Tatar Dynasty? What's so good about Tartar? When the old man was young, he saw them staking their land and turning the Han people into their slaves! This time the Tartars were about to lose, and they actually dug open the embankment of the Yellow River! That Tartar puppet emperor, damn it! ”

"That's it!" Another old man said, "How shameless these scholars were back then! The thieves came and threw the thieves, and the tartars came and threw the tartars! ”

I don't know what the reason is, Fan Jin also followed Sergeant Wu, wanting to see what kind of fate would happen to his classmates who had just participated in the palace examination together, although he was a little unbearable in his heart, but he was a little lucky, glad that he didn't stand up, and a little gloating, happy to see the fate of those people.

Most of the readers didn't go with them, maybe it was because of the sad feeling that the rabbit died and the fox died, and they didn't want to go.

"You guys, let's go and take a look, and see what kind of fate will happen if you speak for the Tartar Puppet Emperor!" At this moment, a general of the Wu army on horseback rode up to him, pointed his whip at these scholars and shouted.

"Let's go, go over and see what happens to them!" The surrounding Wu soldiers urged.

Fan Jin followed the team escorting the scholars, walked out of the Xizhi Gate of the capital, and walked up the mountain along the official road leading to Saiwai. After walking a long way, the team came to a halt in an open field on the northwestern outskirts of the city. Gao Dejie opened his voice and said, "It's here, I'll deal with it here!" ”

Nearly 1,000 Wu soldiers came up with hoes and shovels and began to dig in the ground. Seeing those soldiers digging the ground, those scholars and speech officials began to feel frightened, and they knew very well in their hearts what Wu Jun was going to do. After about an hour, a large pit was dug in the ground that was twelve zhang long, five zhang wide, and one zhang deep.

"Pull all those thieves over and push them into the pit and bury them!" Gao Dejie gave an order.

The scholars and officials who were tied up in a string cried and begged desperately for mercy, and some of them collapsed on the ground and refused to get up. However, more than 200 wolf-like soldiers and soldiers of Wu came up, and two people pulled one of them, like dragging dead dogs, and dragged all these scholars to the edge of the big pit and kicked them down. Whatever the scholars shouted, the soldiers scooped up the dirt and filled the pit. Someone tried to climb up, but was kicked down by Sergeant Wu.

Shovels of dirt were poured down on their heads and faces, so that the readers could not open their eyes. The instinct to survive caused the scholars to climb up desperately, but one by one they kicked them down and kicked them back into the pit, and then the dirt fell on their heads and bodies. The earth gradually rose up, burying the reader's feet and not reaching his knees. By the time the dirt covered their legs, the scholars could no longer move, and could only cry. When the dirt was up to the waist, the tremendous pressure pressed down on the organs, and these people felt that they could not breathe, and it was difficult to even shout. Eventually, by the time only the head was still exposed, most of the people had already lost their breath.

Half an hour later, more than 100 scholars were buried alive.

Three days later, Kang Mazi was executed by Ling Chi.

Although Kang Mazi has been imprisoned in the dungeon of King Wu's Mansion for half a year, within half a year, Wu Yingqi and Wu Shifan did not abuse Kang Mazi, but provided him with good food and drink, and raised him to be white and fat, so that when it was time for Ling Chi, he could cut a few more knives. Originally, Kang Mazi was a thin man with a height of less than one meter six, and his weight was less than 100 catties, but after the "careful care" of the Wu family's uncle and nephew, Kang Mazi's weight actually reached more than 150 catties!

Every day when it was time to eat, the Wu brothers brought big fish and meat to Kang Mazi to eat. Wu Yingqi also heard that if you drink beer every day, people are more likely to gain weight, so he also provided Kang Mazi with three to four beers every day.

In the capital, beer is a luxury, and there are no freezers yet, so the production of fine beer can only be produced in winter in cold places such as Sakhalin, and after it is produced, it is preserved with ice. The beer is distributed wholesale by Nanyang Company, and the price is already very expensive, and it will be even more expensive if it is sent to the capital.

Kang Mazi ate a full meal every day, and was poured beer again. At first, Kangxi could still eat, but later, Kangxi refused to eat more, and Sergeant Wu was like a cramming duck, forcibly feeding him.

"I heard that when Ling Chi was executed in the south, Ozha was cut with 4,326 knives before he died. Today you are going to put Kang Mazi to death, and you have to surpass Oza! If you can't exceed, even if you miss a knife, you will all be punished, expelled from Jinyiwei, and sent to Beihai! Wu Yingqi said to several carefully selected executioners.

"Please rest assured!" The first executioner arched his hand, "The humble duty will definitely be done!" Let the Tartar Puppet Emperor bear the pain well! ”

Before dawn, Kang Mazi was escorted to a prisoner car, sent out of Xuanwu Gate, and sent to the Caishikou Execution Ground where the execution was carried out. After Kang Mazi was delivered, he was tied to a pillar. Outside the court, groups of heavily armed soldiers stood guard to prevent the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty from robbing the court. When the common people heard that Kang Mazi was going to be executed, they followed the prisoner car escorting Kang Mazi out of the city early in the morning, and there were a lot of people outside the court.

When the sky dawned, the uncle and nephew of the Wu family, who were in charge of supervising the beheading, came to the court, and the two walked up to the high platform.

"The hour has come!" A Wu Army officer in charge of the scene took out his pocket watch from his bosom, glanced at it, and shouted.

Wu Yingqi and Wu Shifan's uncle and nephew took turns to put a red tick on Kang Mazi's name, and then Wu Shifan threw an arrow on the ground and shouted: "Execution!" ”

The executioner stripped Kang Mazi of his clothes, and then waved the lancet blade sharply, first cutting off the two heads of Mazi's chest, only to hear a heart-rending scream, Kang Mazi screamed in pain. Then the executioner swung his knife and cut off his eyelids.
