When? In times of war! 185 Do you want to die or want to live?
"Your Excellency!" With a happy look on her face, she greeted her and said generously-
"Come back to see your mother?" Dong Ce asked with a smile.
"Hmm." Zhai Qingtong nodded: "I went to Lingyidu to buy some cloth and cotton back, it's time to make winter clothes when it's cold." ”
Dong Ce frowned: "A girl's family, don't be me, I'm so ugly!" See how you get married in the future? ”
"Oh!" Zhai Qingtong obediently responded, like an angry little daughter-in-law, and she couldn't see that killing a horse thief was as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.
"By the way, what have you been up to lately?" Dong Ce asked.
As soon as he said this, Zhai Qingtong immediately smiled: "I ......"
Seeing Dong Ce's glare, he quickly changed his words: "Ah, I'm helping Wang Yu repair the canal now, and I have fifty old ladies under my hands." ”
"What old?" Dong Ce reprimanded her again: "A girl's family, speak more gently." ”
"Oh......" Zhai Qingtong lowered her head again, but Dong Ce clearly saw that her eyes were gurgling, fluttering vigorously.
"Hey, you!" Dong Ce couldn't help but scratch his head a little.
At first, Zhai Qingtong still looked shy and cowardly in front of him, but he didn't expect this personality to change so quickly, which reminded him of the grin Mu Guiying played by an actress surnamed Miao on the screen in later generations.
,One,Ben,Read,The novel is really a bit like.。
Perhaps, this is his long-suppressed nature!
Lively, active, and full of aura.
Is it really the same person who is cold and noble in front of the people of Rock Castle, cruel and bloodthirsty in front of the enemy, and now?
Watching Dong Ce shake his head and walk away, Zhai Qingtong grimaced behind his back, smiled, and went back to his home.
Dong Ce went to the room where the other three death row inmates were held.
He pushed the door open and entered, met by six vigilant eyes.
The three of them were all tied up sturdily, with shackles on their hands and feet, and Zhou Zhong was staring at them.
Only seven were killed today, and among the remaining three, in addition to the smuggler Liu Batiao, there were two Jiangyang thieves, one named Liu Facheng and the other Qiu Ping.
Both of them are in their thirties, but they look very different, Liu Facheng is tall and thin and looks like a bamboo pole, and the other Qiu Ping is short and strong like a pig's liver.
The profession of Jiangyang thief is a high-risk industry with extremely high profits and equally high risks, just like the stocks in several investment methods mentioned in high school political textbooks -- high risk and high return.
This word existed in the Ming Dynasty at the latest, and it was said in Volume 19 of Ling Mengchu's "Surprise at the First Moment" by Ling Mengchu of the Ming Dynasty: "The little woman's father and husband were all killed by Jiangyang thieves." ”
Since there are two big characters Jiang Yang here, it means that the scope of activity of Jiang Yang thieves is usually not in the city, but in the open wilderness such as rivers, lakes and seas.
The word thief is not enough to sum up the breadth of its business scope.
Stealing, stealing, the two are often used in conjunction with each other, but in fact there is a big difference.
Stealing, usually associated with small print, thief - and so a wave of contempt came to the face. Thieves, people who steal chickens and dogs, and misbehave. It is not allowed to be on the table, but it is just stealing while others are unprepared, but it is stealing, not forcible taking, and the circumstances are relatively minor.
Thieves, on the other hand, are usually associated with 'strong' and 'thief'.
Needless to say, robbers, then look at thieves and thieves.
Thief is composed of "times + dishes", "dishes", which refer to plates containing food, and by extension, all utensils. The "ow" in the seal body is like a person who sneezes with a big mouth, and then add water to the side of the word "ow", and become "times", Xu Shen said: "Mu wants to drink liquid also." Duan Yuci further commented: "There is a desire and the mouth is full of liquid." "In layman's terms, it is to want to drool because you envy something and want to possess it. As for the thief, the thief is composed of "Bei + Rong", "Bei" means property, and "Rong" means a murder weapon to obtain property, that is, the use of murder weapons and violence to obtain property.
To put it bluntly, I like this thing, and then I grabbed it!
Therefore, theft is actually robbery, and sometimes it has to be added to the murder.
Jiang Yang thief can be regarded as the most vicious of thieves, thieves, and thieves.
Robbery, murder, rape, mutilation, they are proficient in everything.
According to Dong Ce's arraignment, these two people were contaminated with a lot of lives.
Qiu Ping is a one-legged thief who has been wandering around Yuncheng to do evil, and there are sixteen lives in his hands.
Liu Facheng was on the southern section of the Yellow River, once he found that the passenger was carrying a lot of money, he committed the crime, and then tied the body to the stone and sank to the bottom of the river. After being arrested in Henan, he was able to escape on the way back to the county seat, and was arrested again after arriving in Yanghecheng.
In comparison, the two of them are even more heinous, but Dong Ce left them because they were of some use.
It is useless to deal with this kind of person, and to tell them big truths, only to coerce them with force, deter them with ferocity, and tempt them with interests.
If you let him fear you and fear you, and at the same time promise him a future and give him great benefits, he will willingly serve you.
This morning's killing, later, Dong Ce asked people to take off all their hoods, it can be said that Liu Batiao and the three stood in the best position, saw it clearly, and witnessed the complete process. Even more than once, the blood of the dead and fragments of internal organs were splashed on their bodies and faces.
This made them face the threat of death for two full hours, and even the most daring they were scared.
What's more, people who can kill people may not be afraid of death.
Now it seems that it worked well.
Their eyes when they looked at Dong Ce were full of horror, and even more faintly a little desperate.
But is it going to be the two of us who are going to die?
Dong Ce looked at them with a smile and said softly, "Do you want to live or die?" ”
Liu Hachijo hurriedly said loudly: "I want to live, I want to live!" ”
Dong Ce waved his hand impatiently: "I didn't ask you." ”
Qiu Ping and Liu Facheng glanced at each other, and they both saw a touch of ecstasy in each other's eyes. Could it be that I can stay alive?
They said in unison: "I want to live, I want to live!" ”
Dong Ce walked up to the two of them and smiled slightly: "I bet that if I let you do something now, you will definitely be gone." Right? ”
The expressions on the faces of the two froze slightly, and Liu Facheng hurriedly said, "Where did you say!" Sir, you let us go, that is the greatest grace to us, and we will naturally return it with a sworn oath. ”
Dong Ce waved his hand: "You don't believe these words, you don't believe them when you say them, and I don't believe them even more when I hear them." ”
Qiu Ping and the others immediately turned pale.
"You two are both Jiangyang thieves, and you have had a good life in the past, but don't you worry about it one day? Afraid of being caught by the government? ”
Dong Ce stared at their eyes and said in a deep voice, "Do you want to live like this for the rest of your life?" But have you thought about what happened after death, can you marry a daughter-in-law if you go on like this? Can there be descendants? Even if you wash your hands in a golden basin, never do it, stay incognito, marry a wife and have children, but the paper can't contain the fire after all, once the incident happens, not only will you die, but your wives and children will also be implicated, and you will be slaves and slaves, and you will never be able to turn over. And have you ever thought that after you die, who will kowtow to you in front of the grave? Who will offer you incense offerings? ”
Dong Ce's voice rose sharply: "No! If you die, you are destined to be a lonely ghost! ”
Qiu Ping and Liu Facheng both had ugly faces, and Dong Ce's words deeply hit their weakest point.
In fact, the Chinese people pay more attention to the afterlife, that is, the people who commit the most heinous crimes, and they also follow the creed of 'unfilial piety has three nos, and the future is great'. Do good or evil and do not say, but if there is no incense left, it is the ancestors who will reject it.
And what Dong Ce said, they understand, there is nothing wrong at all.
In a situation like theirs, there is no way to have a safe ending.
"And if you serve this officer from now on." Dong Ce said lightly: "I also take the silver salary, this money is definitely not as fast and as much as you came before, but you can take it with peace of mind, take it comfortably, and take it above board!" You don't have to be like a ground mouse, hiding in the sun all day long! ”
"This official is not yet a weak crown, he is already a five-grade deputy thousand households, these subordinates of this official were still soldiers a few months ago, and now many people have hung the title of general flag! Follow this official, the future is bright! Dong Ce's voice was full of demonic temptation: "Don't you want to one day be able to return to your hometown openly, in front of your parents and your people, and be glorious?" ”
This sentence made the breathing of both of them a little heavy.
And Dong Ce's next sentence also made them completely determined: "This official will not let you do the thing of charging into battle, what you need to do is the old profession that you are good at, and there is not much danger." Think about it! ”
After that, I turned around and wanted to leave.
Liu Facheng was already shouting: "My lord, I am willing to submit!" ”
was preempted by him, Qiu Ping couldn't help but feel annoyed by the game, and quickly shouted: "My lord, I am also willing." ”
Dong Ce laughed: "Two, you really know the times!" ”
……
"Two, show us your unique job?"
Dong Ce smiled at Qiu Ping and the others.
After they surrendered, Dong Ce immediately asked people to make food and fill their stomachs, and then let the two of them take a bath and change into new clothes, which looked quite the same.
Behind Dong Ce, Shi Jin and Zhou Zhong looked at the two of them vigilantly. Dong Ce didn't care much, whether it was true or false, he could still see it, and even if the other party was fake and obedient, there would be no change at this time, and it would be right to leave directly when the time came. Besides, these two people have some skills, and they are not Dong Ce's opponents. Qiu Ping and Liu Facheng glanced at each other, and Qiu Ping smiled: "I'll come first." ”
