Chapter 451 Heads Falling [Two in One]

An execution platform had been set up early at the entrance of Yunlu City's most prosperous long street, with more than a dozen executioners holding long knives standing on it, looking murderous.

Many people gathered around, all with a hint of disbelief in their eyes, "Are they really going to kill someone?"

The incident at Yungong Mountain was announced by Liang Yue yesterday and quickly spread throughout the city. The various crimes were shocking and made the entire city indignant.

But even though Liang Yue has arrested almost all the people on the list, few people think that he will really go on a killing spree. At most, he will just give them a small punishment or ransom them with a large sum of money.

The purpose of doing this may be to teach the big clans a lesson so that they won't be too arrogant in the future.

How is it possible that they were all killed?
They are all powerful and wealthy.

For ordinary people, laws are strict boundaries that they fear like a tiger. They are afraid of being caught and punished by officials if they just look at them from afar. But for these powerful people, laws are just a tool for mutual bargaining, and it all depends on who has a stronger background.

There are so many powerful people in Qingdu. Their power background cannot be limited to the south. They must have been active in Longyuan City in the past two days. It is hard to say how many important officials in the court are putting pressure on them.

"How could they really kill him?" Someone shook his head and said, "It looks scary, but they will probably just pick a few people with no background to take the blame. If they really dare to kill them all, it would be unless he is Liang Fuguo's biological son."

"Eh?" Someone else asked, "Why did I hear that this is true?"

"It has already spread all over Longyuan City, how come you didn't know about it?" Someone else asked in surprise, "It is Liang Xianguan."

"And I heard that Liang Xianguan seemed to have taken a banned drug during the battle to capture the city, and he only has more than a month to live." Another voice came from the back, "Maybe he really wants to do some good things before he dies?"

"..."

Amidst all the speculation, prison vans came from the direction of the prison, escorted by imperial guards on both sides. The blades and armor on them, the cold light, made people tremble with fear at the sight of them.

Looking at the people in the prison car, the onlookers immediately cheered.

"That's the Qi family's chief treasurer, in charge of most of the Qi family's business!"

"Three elders of the Zhou family were arrested!"

"Oh my god, the head of the Xue family is in the prison car..."

"That guy was a former head constable of the Criminal Justice Department! I never thought..."

"..."

The people who were brought here were completely beyond their imagination. Each of them was a top-notch big fish. Except for the heads of the three major families, they were almost at the top level that ordinary people could recognize.

If you walk out of Yunlu City, you will be surrounded by countless people.

But at this moment, they were all in panic and panic in the prison van, looking devastated, as if they had never expected that they would be brought here.

"Master Liang! Don't do that! I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong! I didn't mean it!"

"I have invited Lord Zuo Xiang to dinner. When he came to Qingdu for inspection, I arranged the banquet. Lord Liang, for the sake of the Left Xiang..."

"Spare my life, and from now on you will be my father!"

"..."

Amid the noisy noise, Liang Yue, for the first time, dressed in formal prison officer uniform and a black hat, walked out with a serious expression and sat down opposite the execution platform.

Since he had no staff of his own, Chen Ju played the role of the legal advisor, standing beside him in a Confucian robe. Zou Shiyi, the head of the criminal department, stood one step below holding a verdict book.

Zou Shiyi looked at Liang Yue's arrival, and a hint of reverence rose in his eyes.

In the Yungongshan case, even when Zhao Faxian was there, even if he had the same determination as Liang Yue, he would never be able to do the same thing as Liang Yue.

If Zhao Faxian were to handle this case, he would most likely ask Liang Fuguo to help, otherwise the Qingdu family would have countless ways to make him disappear.

Liang Yue has more than just a sense of justice. The most important thing is that he has a strong background. So many big families in Qingdu have united and have gone to Longyuan City for help countless times, but there has not been any pressure on Liang Yue.

Everyone in the court knows that he is dying, and they absolutely cannot afford to offend him at this time. If they use force... He has just won the battle to capture the city for the country, and his life span has been cut short because of it. What do you want to do?
Is it kidnapping his family or secretly plotting to kill him?

This is not purely suicidal.

Therefore, none of the bigwigs in Longyuan City got involved. As for the impatient Qingdu families, they often only had one reply... just hold on for two months.

The people from the Qingdu family felt confused when they heard this reply.

What?
Do you mean to say that a condemned prisoner who was beheaded should be allowed to last for two months?

Why not work on your trapezius muscles?
The Qingdu family, who had nowhere to turn for help, had also thought of a way out. Last night, the Criminal Court was flooded with blood, and there was a constant stream of people coming to assassinate them.

But Liang Yue was born in Xuanmen, and one master was enough to kill those assassins ten times. What's more, the master and apprentice were particularly insidious. They didn't face the enemy directly even though they had the advantage in cultivation. They set traps and plotted against them, making it uncomfortable for people to die.

He even issued a hunting order for himself in the underworld, attracting many Qingdu underworld bosses to join in the effort and then eliminate them all.

Using this case, he actually wanted to catch all the black and white elements in Yunlu City in one fell swoop.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a killing god.

With a sense of justice, background, brains and accomplishment, Zou Shiyi couldn't help but recall the time when he followed Liang Fuguo.

Very reassuring.

The only regret is that God is jealous of talents. Such a peerless genius is about to fall...

Ugh!
It's true that good people don't live long, but fortunately he was able to take away a lot of trouble before he died.

……

After Zou Shiyi was distracted for a moment, Liang Yue spoke loudly: "Regarding the Yungongshan case, the government office has posted a notice yesterday. Many of the serious criminals have lost all conscience! Today, I will enforce justice at the intersection of Qingdu Street. According to the court's laws, these extremely evil criminals should be beheaded!"

After saying this, he signaled Zou Shiyi to read the verdict.

Zou Shiyi opened the book in his hand and read aloud: "Qian Qili, raped young girls, tortured and killed innocent women, his methods were cruel, behead him immediately!"

"Zhou Xuanyi, torture for pleasure, causing death, behead immediately!"

"Behead and decide!"

"Behead and decide!"

"..."

All the prisoners escorted here today are sentenced to death.

Of course, it doesn't mean that those who didn't come here today won't have to die, it's just that there's no controversy about this batch. All subsequent sentences will be strict, severe, and expeditious, with no room for negotiation. It's estimated that there will be a large number of people coming to this execution ground.

Those whose names were called were all in tears, some were so weak that they could hardly stand. Many of the so-called powerful and wealthy were just by birth, and when it came to the moment of life and death, they were actually no better than the slightly ruthless street thugs.

He usually looks superior, but he is just being fearless.

By the time the charges against these people were read out one by one, the people around them were already very excited. They were waving their fists and shouting "Kill!", "Kill!"
Then the first group of more than a dozen people were forced to kneel under the blade, and their cries and wails became one.

"When you bully the weak and disregard your conscience, have you ever thought that one day you will be slaughtered?" Liang Yue's voice was as cold as iron, with a token in his hand.

The executioner was watching closely. Once the token fell to the ground, these people would be beheaded immediately!
At this moment, a fast horse suddenly came galloping from the direction of the city gate, and the knight on the horse shouted loudly: "Sir——"

Seeing this scene, many classic scenes suddenly emerged in Liang Yue's mind. People who were often beheaded knew that every time the butcher's knife was about to fall, there would be an imperial decree or a golden medal of immunity from death, pulling the person back from the gates of hell.

So he frowned.

On the contrary, the prisoners kneeling under the knife were greatly encouraged, with hope shining in their eyes.

Are we saved?
Can you survive?
Could it be...

Then the knight came closer, jumped off his horse, and reported: "Another murder outside the city! The imperial guards found four bodies in the forest during their patrol!"

"Hi." Liang Yue breathed a sigh of relief. "Go to the Criminal Justice Department first and write the details into a file. I will handle it myself later."

"Yes!" The knight took the order and left.

The prisoners on the platform who had just been hoping for a miracle saw the spark of life that had just risen be extinguished again, and immediately fell into deeper despair. Some of them had already fainted and were then awakened by slaps in the face.

Some of them were incontinent and knelt there sluggishly, as if they had lost their minds.

Liang Yue raised the warrant again and was about to throw it. A dozen steel knives were raised, and the prisoners closed their eyes in resignation. Thinking back to his life of being a powerful figure, he still felt it was unrealistic.

Why am I going to die suddenly?
Just as the sword was about to fall, another rider came galloping over, "Report--"

This once again disrupted the flow of the scene. The executioners paused their blades, waiting to see what news would come next.

The prisoners who were just preparing for death suddenly looked away, as if a little red light had burst out from the ashes.

Will this time...

Will there be a miracle?
Liang Yue's face darkened, "What's the matter?"

The knight dismounted and presented a letter, saying, "This is a letter from Longyuan City, asking you to deliver it to you as soon as possible."

"..." Liang Yue took the letter and was speechless.

Why do you all come at this time?

Don’t you know how to kill people?
He just wasted some emotions here. Turning back, the hope of the death row prisoners was extinguished again. Because of the huge mood swings, some of them vomited directly, and some even vomited blood after the ups and downs. "Poof——"

These two pulls before death were more painful than all the tortures I had experienced in my life combined.

But no matter how painful it is, you have to endure the punishment. The executioner pulls the person up by his hair, and if he doesn't cooperate, he will slap him twice, and then raise the big knife high above his head again!

At this moment, another horse suddenly rushed over, and the knight on the horse shouted loudly: "Wait a minute--"

That's right!
That’s it!
The prisoners straightened their backs. All the previous lines were wrong. This is the right one!
This must be here to save us, it must be!

Liang Yue had no expression on his face and asked, "Who is coming?"

"Sir Liang!" The big man on the horse turned over, half-knelt, clasped his fists, and held up a document high. "I am also an executioner of the Criminal Justice Department. I should have been on the stage. I overslept and came late today. I hope you will forgive me!"

"..."

After the man announced his purpose, he saw the head executioner on the stage glaring at him and waving his hands at him, "Come over here! Why are you shouting so loudly about something like this? Is that glorious?"

"I'm sorry." The late executioner quickly took off his coat, revealing a red shorts, and joined the team. He was kicked when he walked past the leader.

He was still a little confused, wondering why these people were looking at him with such anger.

But when the person next to him pushed a death row prisoner over, he was stunned, "Huh? This person is already dead."

The prisoner who had come into his hands had his lower body soaked in filth, foaming at the mouth, and his tongue sticking out.

It seemed as if he had stopped breathing.

The death was extremely peaceful.

The executioners looked at the prisoners under their swords, and eight out of ten of them died.

After being repeatedly pulled to the brink of death several times, he could no longer withstand the stimulation and was tortured to death.

Even though they knew that this group of people were extremely evil, the onlookers still couldn't help but reveal expressions of pity... It was too tragic.

"Dead?" Liang Yue waved his hand, "Even if he dies, I'll chop him up!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the stick was thrown out and fell to the ground.

The executioners suddenly felt as if they heard a thunderclap, their eyes widened, murderous intent filled their eyes, and their swords fell heavily!

laugh--

The blood formed a curtain of water, covering the sky for a moment. Round heads fell to the ground, and bones rolled out in a row.

After being washed by these filthy and sinful blood, the sky of Yunlu City became a little clearer.

……

Amid the thunderous cheers of the people, the first group of people with the most serious crimes were beheaded.

In fact, seriously speaking, people like the Zhou family's head, Madam Yungong and Yuan Fukang are the real culprits. It's just that they know too much information and need to be interrogated more. They definitely can't be executed so quickly.

Chen Ju raised his arms on the stage and said, "Are you satisfied with the beheadings on the first day?"

"Satisfied!" Many people responded below.

"Next, we will continue to interrogate the prisoners and bring the death row prisoners here one after another. This is only the first batch, and there will be many more batches to come! We will strive to show innovation, style, and majesty! If you know of any other crimes committed by the people in prison, you can report them to the government. Lord Liang will never let them escape the blame they deserve!" Chen Ju continued loudly.

This is the ultimate purpose of Liang Yue's high-profile beheading, to collect more evidence of the crime.

Many of the powerful people in the prison had only been to Yungong Mountain and had some fun there, but their crimes were not punishable by death. At most, they were connected with the Yihuo Cult rebels without knowing it.

If we directly collect evidence of their crimes, the people in the city may not dare to report it. However, after today's beheading performance, everyone understands.

Lord Liang is really not afraid of death!
Because he was going to die.

As for how much we can gain, it depends on the next few days.

After leaving the execution ground, Liang Yue opened the letter from home and wondered whether it was written by his mother, Xiaoyun or Xiaopeng?

Normally when I go out, they rarely cause me trouble. I don’t know what’s so urgent this time that they specially wrote me such a letter.

As he opened the envelope, his expression suddenly became a little ugly, his eyebrows twisted together, "No...what kind of family letter is this?"

Then I saw three big black words written on it.

"Liang Fuguo."
