The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times

Dagen opened his slightly red and swollen eyes and looked at Lu Qingqing with hope.

Seeing this, Lu Qingqing said:

"Goudan's leg wasn't broken for long, so it's possible for it to recover.

And I just touched it, and both legs were broken in only one place, and the broken ends were quite neat.

I have some medicine for broken bones. I'll reapply it to him later.

Take good care of it over the next period of time, and walking shouldn't be a problem in the future."

When Dagen heard Lu Qingqing say that his son would have no problem walking in the future, he trembled with excitement and immediately knelt down and kowtowed to her.

These days, if a son is really disabled, his future life will be ruined.

Especially in such a disaster year, after the son became disabled, the hope of his survival was very slim.

Da Gen kowtowed on the ground to express his gratitude.

He now has nothing on him but his strength.

If Miss Lu needs him, he is willing to work like a slave for her to repay her kindness.

Qingqing on the opposite side saw that he seemed to be unaware of the pain and was banging his head on the ground, so she hurriedly helped him up.

When they pulled him up, they found that Da Gen's forehead was broken and even bruised underneath.

On the side, Goudan also sat next to Dagen and kowtowed.

Lu Qingqing sighed, and she and Qin Lang helped the two men up.

On the other side, the leading officer was questioning a group of ragged men.

When the men saw the police uniforms on them, they started asking for help.

When he heard the question, he confessed all the evil deeds done by the Beggars' Gang without hesitation.

Among them, there was a man who was not too old. He was arrested earlier and knew more.

He told everything he knew.

After hearing this, the leading officer looked at the men with whips and the warehouse owner as if they were livestock.

These police officers often come into contact with all kinds of people and think they are used to seeing bad people.

But I still didn't expect that these guys were so vicious.

They had heard of this kind of cutting before, but at most it involved breaking limbs.

I never thought that there were so many categories inside.

In addition to the most basic breaking of limbs, there is also the practice of stuffing children into jars.

After raising the child like this for a period of time, the child was completely grown into the jar and could never come out.

In this way, it is easier to get money by taking them to the streets to beg.

In addition, there are other methods such as chopping, roasting, kneading, washing, and raising skinny horses.

Things like this are all aimed at the children who are caught.

In fact, when this "Beggar Gang" first came to Yining County, they captured a group of children and tried all these methods.

But most of the children could not withstand the torture and died.

Among them, some were chopped into pieces like human pigs and died from excessive bleeding.

Some people also died of high fever soon after being burned.

There are also people who died from the pain of washing their faces with boiling water.

After experiencing all kinds of torture, only one child survived.

At this time, the child was regarded as a "treasure" by them, and was strictly guarded and made money for them in the wealthy area of ​​​​the city.

However, due to these complicated methods, the survival rate was too low, so several elders of the Beggar Gang decided to try not to do such troublesome things.

First, use methods such as broken legs and feet, which have a higher survival rate, to train a group of people who can make money quickly.

As for the other methods of collecting branches, they can be slowly cultivated after the power stabilizes in the later stage.

As they recounted each of the incidents one by one, the officers broke out in cold sweats.

After the officers tied up all the prisoners and took them back to the county government office, the other two teams also returned one after another.

This time, dozens of people were arrested.

Behind these dozens of people, there were dozens of victims.

Among the victims, the most conspicuous was a child lying on a cart.

At this moment, the child was only wearing a pair of extremely short shorts, with almost all of his skin exposed.

Someone in the crowd let out a short cry of surprise.

When everyone looked over in the direction of the sound, they were all shocked by the appearance of the child on the cart.

There was no visible texture on the child's face; his entire face looked like a wax figure that had melted and solidified again.

The entire head was covered with dark red skin with scars and hyperplasia.

Only a few holes were left where the facial features should be.

When Lu Qingqing looked over, she was stunned by the dark eyeballs in the two small holes where the eyes used to be.

The child's eyes were filled with death, without a trace of life.

Being looked at by such a pair of eyes is really frightening.

Everyone present was silent for a long time, and finally it was County Magistrate Qiao who broke the depressing atmosphere.

He ordered his men to carefully carry the children on the cart aside.

After settling the children, he coldly ordered the officers to bring all the Beggars' Gang over.

The officers nearby were also disgusted with these so-called "Beggar Gangs". They roughly pulled the man over and forced him to kneel on the ground.

After everything was ready, County Magistrate Qiao began to try the case.

The whole case was clear and the subsequent interrogation process went smoothly.

After confirming that this group of people who called themselves the "Beggar Gang" were committing crimes such as forced human trafficking, picking and breaking branches, and robbing in the streets.

County Magistrate Qiao read out the verdict.

The seven elders of the Beggars' Sect were all executed by slow slicing!

The rest of the prisoners will be beaten with thirty boards and then exiled to the mine!

All the property seized was distributed to the victims.

When the seven elders heard about the death by slicing, some of them fainted from fright.

The few who were still awake immediately began to beg for mercy.

County Magistrate Qiao first punished them with ten strokes of the cane on the grounds that they had disturbed the court.

As for why they were not beaten more, it was because they were afraid that if they were beaten too much, they would not be able to withstand the lingchi for too long and would die!

County Magistrate Qiao wished he could cut these people into pieces with nine thousand nine hundred knives!

If they really died early, it would be a bargain for them!

As for those assigned to the mines, they will not have a good ending either.

If they had not been beaten with the board, they might have had a chance to live longer after going to the mine.

But after being beaten, these people were assigned to the mines, and the probability of survival was basically zero.

Working in a mine is tough. Not only is the environment harsh, but you have to steal even for food.

You must know that the more scarce the resources are, the more brutally people will rob them!

With a wounded past like theirs, there is little hope.
