execution ground.
At around 12:30 p.m., under the scorching sun, twelve tightly tied men and women were escorted by many prison guards to an open space in the execution ground, and knelt on the ground in a row.
These people are all death row prisoners. They are all serious criminals who committed heinous acts in the Yang Province Ghost Infant Incident. Naturally, heinous people like Zhou Da and Wang Gaowei are also among them.
Compared with how ferocious and vicious they were when they committed crimes, they have completely changed their appearance now. Some of them cry bitterly, some of them beg loudly for mercy, some of them break down and curse in anger, and some of them excrement and urine flow out.
There seemed to be a foul smell in the air.
In front of death, these extremely vicious criminals finally revealed their true colors of greed for life and fear of death. Their frightened faces looked extremely funny and unworthy of sympathy!
Outside the execution ground, many strong men looked at this scene with cold eyes. They were basically from Yang Province. They came to the execution ground just to see with their own eyes that the enemy with a blood feud could be punished.
I'm on this list too.
Zhou Da and I are incompatible with each other, and I have long wanted to kill him with my own hands. This time I came here just to watch Zhou Da be executed with my own eyes, otherwise I would not be able to feel at ease.
In order to execute Zhou Da, his soul was stuffed back, and he recovered well. He is now like a normal person, and has not become stupid or a vegetative state.
At this time, he was probably the toughest one. He was yelling in the open space, saying things like "Come on, I'm not afraid of death. I'll still be a good man in my next life." The family members of the deceased were aroused and the situation almost got out of control. In the end, in order to calm Zhou Da down, they had to seal Zhou Da's mouth.
Not long after, a middle-aged man with an upright Chinese character stood up and read out the culpability of the condemned prisoners in public.
After that, at 12:45, the so-called quarter past noon in ancient times...
"boom!"
Accompanied by a series of gunshots, twelve special bullets mixed with surging ghostly energy easily penetrated the heads of these sinful people, instantly destroying their bodies and souls. A series of blood mixed with some yellow and white substances sprayed out. He walked out, and then twelve corpses fell to the ground.
The execution is over.
At this moment, I saw that the crotch of Zhou Da's crotch, which was still staring at death, was slightly moist and yellow. It was obvious that at the final moment of the execution, this so-called "hero" who was not afraid of death was still scared to death.
On the right side of Zhou Da, Wang Gaowei, a former generation of genius scientists, fell to the ground with tears on his face, his eyes widened with a hint of disbelief, as if he couldn't understand that he had died like this.
Seeing this scene, I can only say that he deserved his death and deserved his crime.
After the prisoner was executed, many family members and friends of the deceased shed tears at the gratifying outcome. Izumi's relatives and friends could finally feel at ease.
After the execution, I followed the crowd and left the execution ground. My mood...actually had no fluctuation, but for those who had been hurt, the result was very satisfying, and people outside the execution ground were already crying.
"Second uncle, have you seen it? These beasts who killed you have been punished!"
"Brother, you can rest in peace!"
"God has eyes, God has eyes!"
One after another, the sounds of mourning resounded, making everyone moved.
I saw Sun Wei covering his eyes with his only hand, crying silently; I saw Zhao Zhihan, surrounded by many children of the Zhao family, crying bitterly while being comforted by everyone; I saw many people from the Wang family who had suffered the most heavy losses. , were gathering together and crying bitterly.
Seeing this scene, I sighed slightly.
Yes, although the prisoner was punished, the wounds left in the hearts of the victims' families and friends cannot be repaired.
Although this result is very satisfying, the dead will never come back after all, leaving the living with endless grief that only time can alleviate...
In the afternoon of that day, the imperial bureau released news, saying that the prisoner had been brought to justice. This gave the family and friends of the deceased and the people of Yang Province an explanation, and at the same time, it also greatly frightened those criminals who were ready to take action.
At 4:30, the Imperial Bureau held a meeting. Due to my status as a federal member, I could also sit in and participate in this meeting, but in fact I was only qualified to observe and did not have much power.
In the conference room, Li Xun gave a speech on the atmosphere of the cultivation world.
"This incident of ghost babies in Yang Province has exposed many problems in the cultivation world."
"At least a quarter of the cultivators in the Yang Bureau are deserters. It can be seen that among the cultivators, many are worms in the cultivation world. They usually have treatment and status far superior to other professions, but when it comes to We don’t need people like these who run away from the battlefield and become deserters when we really need them!”
"The deserters involved in this incident will be dealt with seriously to rectify the atmosphere. During this period, those who violate laws and disciplines will be severely punished, and we will resolutely prevent similar things from happening again! Other bureaus must also take this as a warning and strictly supervise the authorities' practitioners!"
"From today onwards, cultivators must undergo strict selection. Those with stains will be immediately removed from their posts. If guilty, they will be severely punished. If they evade the mission, they will be dealt with seriously, so as not to become deserters in the future if something really happens!"
"Especially those new cultivators, there are all kinds of people, it's just a hodgepodge. In the past, there was no threshold for selection, but from now on, all new cultivators will be inspected, and those who fail the first test will be dismissed. Now, cultivators are no longer better than gold. It’s an expensive age, and selection must be strict enough, and it’s better to be short-term than excessive!”
Li Xun talked a lot, and finally the Imperial Bureau drafted a new proposal - to rectify the cultivation world.
This meeting is actually mainly about three major things, rectification of the cultivation world is one, commendation is the second, and there is another thing that caught my attention, which is one thing Li Xun emphasized at the meeting, and that is... .
Eliminate the ghost master.
Yes, it means to eliminate all ghost masters nationwide, eliminate and arrest all organizations and sects related to ghost masters, and arrest ghost slaves. However, this matter must be carried out after the internal rectification of the cultivation world is completed.
I don’t know if Li Xun said at the meeting a few days in advance whether he was giving the ghost master time or waiting for the ghost master to express his attitude, but aside from these things, Li Xun’s tough attitude towards the ghost master is enough to explain a lot of issues. ...
, Judging from the ambiguous attitude of the cultivation world towards the ghost master in the past, the two sides were incompatible with each other, and even the cultivation world tolerated the ghost master everywhere. However, Li Xun suddenly became tough this time and wanted to confront the ghost master. I think the reason for this is because Wang Hao's breakthrough gave Hua Guo confidence. On the one hand, the ghost master's behavior in Yang Province has basically ruined his reputation.
Apart from that, I always feel that I have something to do with Qing Ling.
This meeting was the same as the last meeting. Qing Ling was not mentioned at all, as if he was deliberately avoiding the issue. However, this situation made me feel that Qing Ling had a lot to do with this matter. It seemed like a storm. Brewing on the currently calm sea...
I have a vague feeling that maybe something big is going to happen...
After the meeting, a rectification campaign in the cultivation world was launched.
First of all, the cultivating community dealt with the deserters of the Yang Bureau in this incident without fail. Those who should be removed from their posts were dismissed, and those who should be sentenced were sentenced. In addition to the Yang Bureau, other bureaus also carefully screened and screened. Many practitioners with problems emerged and were dealt with immediately.
This rectification storm lasted for several days and did not end until the end of the month. It affected the whole country and many people were dismissed. This also caused this part of the "former practitioners" to be extremely dissatisfied with the Imperial Bureau's handling. Some people went to the Imperial Bureau to make trouble. However, after dozens of people were arrested and thrown into prison, the matter slowly subsided.
On August 1, Yang Bureau was rebuilt.
On the same day, Chen Yi announced his resignation, and Zhao Kun was appointed as the head of the Yang Bureau.
