Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 1266: Chapter 1175: The Female Prime Minister 114

Zhou Chengbing and Hu Buwei were taken to the Capital City by the Emperor’s men. These two are of great use to the Emperor, but Hu Bingchen, Xu Huirong, Chai Pengfei, and the constables were of no use to the Emperor.

This time, Yin Shuangshuang, adhering to the idea that the law must punish the multitude, sentenced these three along with the arrest officer and those hired by Chai Pengfei to guard the captured common people to death.

These constables and the guards and ruffians hired by Chai Pengfei also had blood on their hands; it was they who captured the common people during the chaos caused by the barbarians, and who looked after and tortured them to death.

The corpse pit at the gold mine was already astonishing, but the corpse hole in front of the iron mine was even more shocking, where the bodies were stacked layer upon layer, at least hundreds, clearly showing that none of these people were innocent.

The number of people sentenced to death by Yin Shuangshuang was nearly two hundred. Originally, executions were supposed to wait until after autumn, but Yin Shuangshuang could not wait.

The common people, still in dazed shock, constantly reminded Yin Shuangshuang of how heinous these people were, unworthy of being human.

Yin Shuangshuang was eager to decapitate them, not only out of anger, but more so, in hopes of breaking the barriers in the hearts of the tormented common people.

Thus, on the day of the execution, Yin Shuangshuang deliberately abandoned the usual site and found a spacious place to bring those tortured common people.

Only by seeing the torturers punished could they break their tightly closed hearts, only then could they emerge from that nightmare.

During this period, due to notices issued by Yin Shuangshuang, families with missing relatives during the barbarian chaos came with a glimmer of hope.

Indeed, many found their relatives among these people, but even upon seeing them, these pitiable, tormented souls showed little reaction.

They were so traumatized and psychologically scarred that they didn’t recognize anyone. Even the slightest disturbance caused them to tremble all over, yet they dared not make any evasive movements, evoking deep sympathy and sadness.

On the day of execution, the sun shone brightly, the sky was clear, it was a rare good weather, even Yin Shuangshuang, who had been unwell, felt much better under the sunlight.

However, those bound and kneeling on the ground, waiting for execution, felt none of this; the sun shining on them, they still felt chilled.

Though they had previously tortured and killed without emotion, even for amusement, when it was their turn to face death, they behaved miserably.

Some collapsed trembling, some wailed and begged, some cried and screamed, others so scared they defecated and urinated, truly a display of humiliation.

Yin Shuangshuang carefully observed the common people she had specially brought to witness the execution, noticing their initial instinctive shrinking back upon seeing these perpetrators.

But soon, seeing them bound and kneeling, the instinctive fear waned significantly, their numb eyes now showed hatred towards these people.

Among the visitors were not only the common people themselves but also their relatives and others drawn by rumors, their faces showing anger.

Especially after seeing so many still ravenous despite Yin Shuangshuang’s care, their bodies scarred, the anger intensified.

Amidst the anger was a lingering fear, they were ordinary folk. If the barbarian chaos had happened nearby, could they have ended up like this?

Under the influence of such emotions, the common people’s anger surged, initially surrounding and hurling insults, but soon couldn’t resist picking up stones and branches to hurl at the beasts.

Yin Shuangshuang did not stop them, allowing them to vent, knowing that there was still a long time until 11:45 AM.

Yin Shuangshuang arrived early to allow the common people to vent, make these perpetrators suffer more, knowing their time of death and awaiting it isn’t pleasant.

Initially, those whose tongues had been cut out stood dazed, watching others throw stones.

Seeing those who had once terrorized them unable to resist, they bravely joined in, picking up stones and hurling them.

With this beginning, all fear began to fade, hatred grew heavier, slowly they were no longer satisfied with throwing stones, rushing forward to kick and punch those men.

Their weak bodies lacked strength, so they used their teeth to bite, stones to crush, opening their empty mouths without tongues, roaring in an incomprehensible cadence!

Roars mixed with the mournful cries of those bound, flesh being torn off, the smell of blood spreading, as if Hell were manifesting in the Mortal World!

Wang Ruiqi slightly frowned, looking at Yin Shuangshuang: ”Shuangshuang, should we not intervene? If we let these common people vent like this, these men might be dead before 11:45 AM.

These prisoners are supposed to be beheaded according to the law, if they die before then, it might bring trouble with the law.”

Yin Shuangshuang held her warm stove, gazing indifferently at the grim scene before her: ”No matter, let them vent. Having slain their enemies themselves should unlock their hearts, it’ll be better for them in the future.

As for these men, they deserve death, by 11:45 AM, their heads can be chopped off and thrown into the 乱葬 ground, how they died doesn’t matter, I can bear this responsibility.”

As Wang Ruiqi expected, by 11:45 AM, they were indeed all dead, and their death was exceedingly tragic, with no skin intact being the lightest injury.

Some were bitten to show their bare bones, some had their necks bitten through, sparing the executioner the need to decapitate.

For these common people, Chai Pengfei, Hu Bingchen, and Xu Huirong, the main culprits were not as hateful as the guards.

The guards tortured and beat them to death every day, while the true perpetrators they hadn’t even seen.

After revenge, the common people finally unlocked their hearts, venting all their fears and dread, embracing and shouting loudly, then began to wail and cry!

Without tongues to speak, they could only open their empty mouths, letting out incomprehensible howls, saying who knows what.

Some who came to find relatives couldn’t help but embrace their bloodied relatives in comfort, crying alongside them.

The stimulation of personal revenge finally unlocked these tortured souls, their eyes no longer numb, finally able to recognize their relatives.
