Chapter 853
Three days later, Lao Zhang was buried.
Chen Guanlou summoned Lao Zhang's apprentice in the office room, Wang Youfu, the current manager of the torture room.
A man in his early thirties seems particularly capable. But his eyes were a little cloudy, more savvy, and less steady.
Chen Guanlou kept not talking, but looked at the other person with a stern face.
At the beginning, Wang Youfu was full of confidence and full of energy. After being looked at but not talking, he began to feel guilty and couldn't help but think about whether he had committed something? Or was it because the superiors were dissatisfied with him as the manager of the criminal room, or maybe Chen Yucheng had prejudice against him.
He felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, and it was not uncomfortable. But he didn't dare to ask. I just regret not standing! I am not so uncomfortable when I stand, I just think it's a punishment to stand, and I feel better.
"How much have you learned about your master's skills?"
After a long silence, Chen Guanlou was finally willing to speak.
Wang Youfu felt relieved and secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Sir, Master, I have learned 70% or 80% of the skills of my juniors."
"Your master has no reservations about you?"
"Master, he treats me like a parent and child, and has never been reserved." Wang Youfu said so.
Chen Guanlou nodded slightly, "Old Zhang passed away. I feel really sad when I see you. I have been busy all the time, so you are determined."
“It’s all what I should do.”
"Will it be lingchi?" Chen Guanlou suddenly changed the subject and was a little caught off guard.
Wang Youfu was obviously stunned for a moment and hesitated: "I dare not deceive adults. Lingchi's job is not very good, it is a bit rough. The master has taught his skills, but he has not had many opportunities to practice."
Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows slightly, "How about comparing with the executioner of the imperial prison next door?"
"I can't compare to the veterans of the imperial prison next door. But I must be better than those disciples." Wang Youfu made a big splash.
"In a few days, the bandits of the sect will be taken to the execution ground. The leader of the group must execute lingchi, five hundred swords. Originally, this job belongs to your master. Now that your master is gone, the reasoning is in your hands. What to do? If you can't do it, say it as soon as possible, and I'll borrow someone from the Ministry of Justice."
Wang Youfu hesitated a little and did not dare to agree immediately. He asked timidly, "Dare you ask me, 500 yuan a day or two?"
"It is best to complete it in one day. The adults' time is precious. As subordinates, we should share the worries of the superiors. If the prison sentence for two consecutive days, the adults will be unhappy, and if it is serious, they will also feel uncomfortable. Are you right? ”
When Wang Youfu Snake heard that he killed five hundred times in one day, he instantly felt Alexander.
Chen Guanlou looked at his appearance and reminded him again: "Don't show off. If you can do it, it's okay, but if you don't, it's not okay. At most, you can borrow someone from the Ministry of Justice, and you won't be embarrassed. If you show off and ruin a big deal, your master will have the reputation you have accumulated in his life. Destroyed by you."
Explain the pros and cons clearly, and I thought the other party would choose to retreat if it is difficult. Unexpectedly, Wang Youfu actually said, "Sir, I can do this job."
Now it was Chen Guanlou's turn to hesitate, "Are you sure?"
"I am sure! I will definitely live up to my high expectations, and I will not lose my reputation as a master. I will definitely do this job well and I will definitely not embarrass the Heavenly Prison."
Wang Youfu promised it with confidence and just wanted to issue a military order.
Chen Guanlou frowned slightly, "Don't show off."
"I understand, I will never show off."
"Since that's the case, I'll leave Lingchi's job to you, so I can give birth to a knife, so don't be embarrassed."
"Thank you sir!" Wang Youfu looked very excited and his face turned red. I have the illusion that glory is about to be added!
Chen Guanlou tickled secretly, indeed not steady enough.
He coughed lightly, reminded the other party to withdraw his attention, and talked about official duties, "I heard that the boy from the torture room has been a little troublesome recently. Do you need my official to come forward?"
Wang Youfu became nervous again in an instant.
He kept guessing in his heart whether Chen Yucheng was dissatisfied with his management of the torture room, or did he really want to stand up for him and be his backer? He is not sure!
He had to answer carefully, "The young man is incompetent, so the adults are bothered. After the young man goes on, he will definitely strictly control the butler and the bastard. If the bastards make trouble again, he will ask the adults to come forward."
When Chen Guanlou heard this, he immediately showed a smile on his face. He saw through the other party's little thoughts at a glance and suddenly felt bored. Lao Zhang walked too suddenly and didn't even explain his last words.
Forget it, let’s take the time to see Lao Zhang and continue to appoint Wang Youfu.
If the other party has experienced it and can take on the burden, it is best.
If the other party has not made any progress, it will not be too late to replace people at that time.
Things are settled.
On the day of execution, Xu Fugui was responsible for escorting the prisoner to the execution ground. Mu Qingshan volunteered to follow him, saying it was exercise.
The reason is that I figured it out recently. Since you have worked in the Tianzhu industry, you will no longer resist and do your job well.
Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows and said, "You are sure to go. The execution ground is not a joke. You fainted and didn't cry and come to me as a door god. Also, listen to Li Shuan's tricks, you can't play with him. .”
"We are in normal contact, and there is no one who plays whom."
Chen Guanlou snorted coldly and sneered: Do you think I believe it or not!
Lingchi has not been made public for a long time!
When the people heard that they wanted to sect bandits, they rushed to the execution ground one after another. There were crowds of people outside the execution ground, and even without any ability, they couldn't squeeze in. The surrounding restaurants and teahouses are also full, and they have been booked by rich people to see.
In fact, the major yamen in the court are not short of Lingchi.
However, most of the lingchi was carried out in prison and was not public. For example, the Imperial Prison next door would do a lingchi job from time to time.
The executioners in the Imperial Prison did a rough and bloody job, and were simply a group of perverts. This highlights the exquisite and superior skills of Old Zhang.
Everyone heard that the executioner in charge of lingchi today was Old Zhang's apprentice. It was said that all the executioners in the city came, and even the executioners from the surrounding prefectures came. They all wanted to see with their own eyes how much Wang Youfu, as an apprentice, had learned and whether he could take on the big job of lingchi.
For the executioner, being able to do the job of lingchi is equivalent to learning real skills and being able to officially become a master. The master taught well and the apprentice learned well, which is a good story in the industry.
For ordinary people, it was just to watch the fun. I just wanted to see with my own eyes how many knives the prisoner could withstand without dying. How many cuts can the executioner make without causing the prisoner to bleed to death?
There were so many people!
All that was missing was the gongs and drums, and the colorful flags!
The official in charge of supervising the execution today was the official in the Ministry of Justice, and he felt quite stressed. It was winter, but his forehead was sweating, and he kept staring at the timer funnel.
When the time came, he roared, "Behead!"
The religious bandits knelt down and bowed their heads. The executioner raised the dog-head knife, boom, and with one cut, the head rolled to the ground, blood splattered, and the cut was clean and sharp, and the prisoner died painlessly!
This was a beautiful job!
Some of the onlookers cheered loudly and applauded to cheer him up!
The scene was so noisy for a while.
Next was today's big show: Ling Chi!
It was also the first time that Wang Youfu publicly showed his personal skills!
