Chapter 62 Punishment
A faint light appeared in the sky.
On the left side of the temporary camp, nearly three hundred slaves were gathered together with trembling bodies. In front of them was a group of fierce and ferocious pirates. With a scream not far away, two burly and powerful tall pirates came over with one hand and two obviously indigenous slaves. Behind were four ferocious pirate minions, each holding a wooden stake, and then a rough cross was set up in front of the group of slaves!
"This is the end of the runaway!"
The half-elf-elf's face was not very good. He was just about to show it in front of Sauron, but he didn't expect that a slave would run away the next day. This was like a naked slap in the face and told Sauron that he was not good at doing things well. So he now has no favoritism for the escaped slaves, and even wished he could peel them alive. The half-elf-elf's first mate looked at the slaves in front of him coldly, looking at their terrified expressions, and said in a deep voice: "All those who dare to escape, they are your fate!"
Pick.
The half-elf-elf mate glanced at the side, and then two burly pirates came over with two native slaves who had begun to be obviously beaten. Then a one-eyed dragon with a left eyeball was missing and stood up with a grim smile. He held a hammer and nail in his hand. Due to the production process, the nails of this era were not the kind we are familiar with, but the conical nails as thick as fingers. The one-eyed dragon shook the person next to him, and then someone forced the two slaves to separate their limbs and fixed them on the rough cross.
"No!...No!...please!..."
The two natives seemed to know their future fate, and they couldn't help but tremble all over. One of them seemed to speak a little bit of common words and kept crying and begging. The sound did not dare to see the slaves below. However, no matter how he begged, it was useless. The one-eyed dragon raised the hammer with a grim smile, and then pointed the nail at his palm, accompanied by a bang. The nail as thick as a finger passed through the palm of the native slave, and then pushed it into the wooden stake behind him.
A shrill scream rang out!
The sound felt very cunning when it sounded. A stream of blood flowed out of the palms that were nailed, and then dripped along the fingers to the ground. The two native slaves who were executed were shaking all over, and the sound in their mouths had changed a little. They were still begging to express their regret and ignorance, but in the end they still had no pity for them. The one-eyed dragon continued to pick up the nails and nailed their other palm to the wooden stake.
But this is just the beginning!
This criminal law requires nine nails to be used, starting with nailing the palms, then the elbows, then the soles of the feet, and then the knees.
As for the last nail.
This is only used at the end of the criminal law. Only when the person being sentenced to heal his blood or is close to death will the executioner pick up the last very narrow nail and shoot it in from the prisoner's forehead. Generally speaking, the last nail is not used because it is a criminal law with a taboo curse. There are many places that believe that if the nail is used to penetrate the forehead and the prisoner is eventually executed, the soul of the person being sentenced to the cross, and then such a person has the chance to become a terrible resentful spirit.
After all, the undead are supernatural creatures!
Even professionals dare not say that they can beat the undead. After all, they can travel between the spiritual world and the material plane.
……………………
Sauron watched the execution process throughout the whole process.
He had to strictly stop this act of escape, otherwise these slaves would be unable to manage them in the future. He was a person who respected the rules and had no sense of historical mission to lift the slave system. Because even the technological level of the previous life, the slave system was not lifted for a long time. And the prosperous manor economy at that time was entirely supported by slave labor. The complete resumption of the slave system in the previous life was delayed until the 20th century, which shows how amazing the remaining power of this system is.
Existence is reasonable.
Although it may not be a good thing. Slavery is currently unshakable because many churches of gods support slavery.
Blood fell drop by drop.
The two native slaves nailed to the wooden stakes have begun to breathe weakly. Their initial shrill screams have changed, and now they are almost hoarse. But the whole process has not ended yet, and the blood will gradually solidify because it is not a fatal wound. They still need to be exposed to the sun in the scorching sun for a while before they die. The criminal law will not end because of their death. After their death, the bodies are still nailed to the wooden rack, and the smell of blood will attract many scavengers, such as crows.
at last.
The crow will start pecking at the corpse until the corpse is eaten with only one skeleton left!
This criminal law process may last for a week, mainly depends on how many crows are attracted and whether the owner of the criminal law is in a good mood.
Some of the slaves below were almost scared!
The two indigenous people were nailed to the cross in blood and then stood up in front of them. Then, the pirates began to shout and direct their work. Because the examples just now in front of them were alive, these slaves were very enthusiastic about their work. Only when they occasionally stopped and saw the two similar people nailed to wooden stakes would they reveal a hint of sadness, but some people also saw gloating. After all, half of the slaves were natives and half mainlanders, so the indigenous people wanted to escape, because this was the overseas archipelago where they lived. However, mainland slaves would never want to escape, because they could not survive even if they escaped.
If the number of slaves in mainland China is not small, because the price is relatively docile and high, Sauron really plans to buy more.
"elder brother?"
Vivian's figure appeared not far away. The little girl was wearing a black princess dress, raised her little hand and rubbed the corners of her eyes, and said, "What's wrong just now? I seem to hear someone screaming!"
The little girl slept for a long time yesterday.
She seems to be very sleepy recently, but she doesn't know why, and even Sauron doesn't know much about it.
However, Vivian was in normal condition and her physical condition seemed very good. Another thing is that her strength is much greater than before, and she now has the strength of a child who is nearly twelve or thirteen years old.
Maybe the little girl is developing.
Sauron felt that her height was about one or two centimeters taller than before, and now she was probably a little taller than Aladdin.
But Aladdin is really short!
Vivian seemed to have just woken up, rubbed the corners of her eyes in a daze, then blinked her big eyes and looked around. When she heard her subordinates explaining what had just happened, she couldn't help but curl her lips and nodded seriously and said, "That should be like this! These lowly slaves! As my brother's personal property, he dared to escape! He should nail them to death!"
"See if they dare to run away in the future!"
At first, Sauron was a little worried that she would reject this kind of criminal law, but what the girl said made Sauron's mouth smile.
This is his Vivian!
The little girl who said, "If you go kill someone, I will help you set fire."
Kindness cannot solve the problem.
At least most of the time, kindness cannot solve the problem and will only make the problem worse.
Sauron is not yet time to show his kindness!
Now the overseas archipelago can be said to be a step-by-step crisis, with various dangerous things and hidden dangers that are innumerable troubles. He absolutely does not allow his slaves to cause trouble for him.
……………………
Vivian today seems to be very brave!
She raised her hand to sort out the beautiful black princess dress on her body, and then tied it into a double ponytail with her hairband. The little girl had a single ponytail every day, and seemed to have a lot of fun. She tilted her head and looked at the two native slaves who were bloody on the wooden stake. Then she turned around to look at the other busy slaves. Two of them knelt down immediately after seeing her, and kowtowed with an excited expression, as if they were the two guys she had used her spell to save.
The little girl nodded with a reserved look down at them like a noble princess and said, "Work hard!"
"I remember my brother said that as long as you work hard, some of them will be given freedom. My brother always keeps his words counting, and I believe you will be free soon!..."
