They were all sentenced to waist beheading, and it is estimated that they could not laugh out loud, but the family would still bribe the executioner, why? In order to give the prisoner a hard time!
As the saying goes, "relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to draft water" in ancient times when executioners accept bribes from prisoners is not uncommon, and in the autumn when "business" is hot, maybe this gray income is more than the monthly salary!
Why is there a climate of death row inmates giving gifts to executioners? Could it be that the executioner has a relationship in the Yin Cao Prefecture, so that the death row prisoner can be overborn early and give birth to a rich and noble family?
Longitudinal joke, they certainly do not have that doorway, if there are some would rather be reincarnated as a princely general early, why do you still do the inferior livelihood of killing the head for money!
In fact, this kind of atmosphere stems from the variety of ancient death penalties, such as hanging, poisoning, hanging, hanging such as the gentle death penalty of leaving the whole body of the person does not need an executioner, only the cruel death penalty of beheading, car splitting, waist beheading, and Ling Chi is the need for executioners, and the cruel death penalties are generally imposed by the evil people who believe that the crime is extremely evil, and the death is not enough, and must be tortured in every way to die, and the imperial court would like them to suffer more and will not care whether they will be blackmailed by the executioner before they die.
Because of this, the executioners have drawn up a path to prosperity and demanded bribes from death row inmates. How can they all be fished out of them when they are bound to die?
In fact, it seems that the same torture method of death, the executioner can decide how many live crimes the prisoner suffers, like ordinary beheading, bribery can be used with a fast knife, a knife is broken, the prisoner does not have to suffer much torture, if there is no bribe or offended the executioner, with a blunt knife executioner, the hand knife fell on the neck without folding the urine, repeated several times the prisoner did not die first went crazy.
Of course, the execution of Caishikou, the people are watching, the executioner can not get up and down, will damage the face of the imperial court, play this routine is easy to be remembered and expelled, and the waist beheading, Ling Chi such torture, the executioner to play a much larger space.
Ling Chi, commonly known as a thousand knives, a skilled executioner can slice thousands of knives to ensure that the prisoner does not die, watching his flesh snowflakes generally down, feeling that he has died a thousand times, thinking about it is painful, if you want to suffer less guilt, you can bribe the executioner, and the executioner can swallow his breath early when he is executed. However, this kind of bribery can only be applied to ordinary Ling Chi prisoners, if the emperor and empress dowager hate, designate to cut a thousand knives, that is, give the executioner a hundred and two gold, he does not dare to collect, and does not dare to slash a few knives to kill people, unless he does not want to live!
The same is true for the waist chop, it looks like a knife, cut people's waist, let people up and down the torture of the family, in fact, the part of the knife also said, the upper part of the human waist has more internal organs, the lower side is relatively less, the upper point of the execution can be swallowed early, if the luck is good, it will hang on the spot, and the lower point may take tens of minutes, or even a few hours to swallow, watching their legs leave the body, and the mind is awake, is it more terrifying, more cruel.
After watching their relatives being beheaded, the families of the prisoners stared at their lower body and shouted, "My legs, my legs", and they all had to collapse, so no matter how difficult it was for the family, they had to find a way to scrape together some silver, bribe the executioner, and let him help and give him a hard time!
