Chapter 4781: Execution Day

The meaning is to let the old cultivator tell the truth about the situation that day.

The old cultivator took a deep breath and calmed himself down a bit.

Then, he looked at Fang Yu and began to describe the situation that day.

"Actually, that day, I had no intention of going to the Soul-Slaying Platform to watch the execution. After all, a prisoner had to be executed there almost every few days, so it was not interesting... But that day, I was at the public list. I was about to accept some small commissions and earn some fairy crystals, but suddenly I saw an inconspicuous commission announcement at the bottom of the public list... It said that a varying number of monks were needed to go to the Soul-Slaying Platform to watch an execution. "

"This commission is inconspicuous, and the reward is not very high, only two hundred immortal crystals, so not many monks want to go."

"Because I couldn't find a suitable commission, I thought it wouldn't matter if I went to take a look. It's better to get two hundred immortal crystals than nothing at all... After that, I went to the Soul-Slaying Platform."

"When I got there, I realized that there were so many monks who had just glanced at me. There were not only 8,000 but also 5,000 monks present! They surrounded the Soul-Slaying Platform two or three times."

"Then I thought the execution was going to start soon, and I just had to wait there for the prisoners to be taken to the soul-killing platform."

"Unexpectedly, after waiting there for a while, a venerable man wearing Taoist armor suddenly appeared and asked all the monks present to line up in two lines, starting from the south side of the Soul-Slaying Platform... It was like this for a long time. There are two long lines, leaving a trail in the middle, leading to the Soul-Slaying Platform."

"Actually, I didn't know what this was going to do at that time. I didn't understand until the prisoners were escorted over..."

Having said this, the old cultivator took a deep breath, with a look of horror in his eyes.

"The prisoner was trapped in a punishment cage with chains on his hands, feet and neck."

"Then the punishment cage will start from the farthest point of the two lines of monks we present, along the path separated between us, and move forward slowly towards the location of the soul-slaying platform."

"And at this time, the Great Master of the Taoist Temple gave us an order to use our respective weapons to give the prisoner at least one blow when the cage passes in front of him!!"

"It was then that I realized that forming two teams was part of the execution. This was to allow thousands of monks here to participate in this execution!"

"At that time, many of the monks present were shocked and discussed in low voices what crime the prisoner in the cage had committed, and how he had to be tortured like this before being executed... However, we did not dare to discuss it too loudly, we just whispered in private A few words."

"As the cage moved forward, the monks on both sides rushed forward, holding knives, swords, axes, halberds, etc.... towards the body of the prisoner in the cage. Maybe They all find it very strange, many monks are so cruel! They are still unwilling to stop after taking action more than ten times..."

The old repairman shook his head.

For an ordinary monk like him, the scene at that time was too cruel and bloody.

"The prisoner's body was shrouded by some kind of power in the cage. There were many wounds on his body, but they were quickly repaired. He was tortured repeatedly... Along the way, his body was injured at least several times by various weapons. Thousands or even tens of thousands of times..."

"I was in the middle of the queue, and it wasn't until the cage was almost in front of me that I could clearly see the appearance of the prisoner in the cage...with his gray hair hanging loose, wearing a prison uniform, and his whole body was bright red. Bloodstains."

"He did not lower his head, but raised his head. There were many wrinkles on his face, and his two eyes had been gouged out, leaving only the eye sockets, but he still grinned, as if he was smiling..."

"I'm relatively timid, so I wasn't as inexplicably excited as the monks around me at the time. I even wanted to leave there... But I knew that if I did that, I would lose two hundred immortal crystals in vain... So, when I arrived at the Dharma Cage, I When I was in front of me, I still went up, and then stabbed the prisoner in the cage with the knife in my hand... At that moment, I felt that the prisoner seemed to be looking at me, and those empty eye sockets... made me feel numb all over. "It was cold, and then I heard the prisoner's laughter... I became even more frightened. I stabbed him and quickly returned to the line, not daring to look at the prisoner again."

"After that, the cage continued to move forward, and the monks became more excited and crazy along the way. They wanted to scrape off the prisoner's flesh..."

"Finally, the Dharma Cage marched to the Soul-Slaying Platform. A great master from the Taoist Temple stepped forward to open the Dharma Cage and personally escorted the prisoners inside to the middle of the Soul-Slaying Platform."

"That place is usually the execution site."

"But before the execution, the great master suddenly spoke."

Having said this, the old cultivator frowned and looked a little confused.

"The Great Master said, 'I know you all want to know the identity of today's death row prisoner, but unfortunately, in order to avoid trouble, we are not going to disclose his identity. I can only tell you that this death row prisoner deserves to die more than any other prisoner in the world..." Therefore, we do not want to let him die easily, so we invite you to participate in this execution and let this death row prisoner suffer more torture.'"

"While the Great Master was speaking, the death row prisoner was standing at the execution point in the middle of the Soul-Slaying Platform, always holding his head high, as if he was thinking about something, and seemed to be looking somewhere. Anyway, the death row prisoner didn't look scared, so I'm very impressed, this is the first time I've seen this..."
