Chapter 302 Chen Dao Appears
When Zhao Qiang saw this, his legs almost gave way and he knelt down before Tang Yu on the spot.
He never expected that Tang Yu's words were not a joke, but rather extremely serious.
They really need to extract the corpse.
Moreover, these were the kind of old, white bones that had been dead for over a decade.
They'll get a beating for that.
"thump."
His legs buckled, and he knelt down on the spot.
He looked at Tang Yu.
"Your Excellency, this...this is against etiquette."
"This is truly inhumane and the methods are too extreme."
"Your Excellency, isn't this inappropriate?"
Looking at Zhao Qiang's cowardly figure, Tang Yu had actually ruled him out as a suspect from the beginning.
He knew that the other party was merely cowardly and unwilling to do so, and was not someone connected to him.
One hand grabbed Zhao Qiang by the collar, suspending him in the air.
Tang Yu spoke slowly.
"I never would have guessed that our Prefect Zhao is such a kind person."
"But have you ever thought about how their ghosts caused the destruction of families and the deaths of more than sixty people in my southern city?"
"More than sixty lives have been lost. Isn't it enough for them to be whipped a few times?"
"If you don't take the whip now, after this is over, everyone except you..."
"Even all your relatives, friends, daughters, wives, brothers, and siblings will suffer because of you. How do you feel about that?"
Upon hearing Tang Yu's words, Zhao Qiang's eyes widened in shock.
The next moment, he shakily got up from the ground and took the whip from Tang Yu's hand.
They walked toward three skeletons.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and forcefully lashed the whip across the skeletons.
But to everyone's surprise, Tang Yu was not satisfied after finishing his drink. Instead, he said something sinisterly to the side.
"Oh dear, how come you don't even have the strength to crack the whip anymore?"
Are you hitting them or giving them a massage?
"You draw again, or you'll just have to wait."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Qiang shuddered.
Finally, he closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and lashed the skeleton with all his might three times.
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
The whip struck the remains three times in succession.
The bones of the remains were smashed and scattered everywhere, making it look extremely tragic.
Tang Yu nodded in satisfaction.
"Gentlemen, now each of us will crack the whip."
"The minimum standards and intensity should be based on this standard."
"Otherwise, your relatives and friends will be the ones who suffer. Do you understand?"
The group of people nodded obediently to Tang Yu's words, like chicks pecking at rice.
The person in the crowd couldn't hold back any longer.
Because it seems that he wasn't ranked particularly high in the list.
And so, Tang Yu acted as the supervisor from the sidelines.
If someone is too soft-hearted or afraid to use force,
After Tang Yu made him finish the whipping, he would also lash him hard with the whip.
Tang Yu's whip would directly tear his skin open, leaving him rolling on the ground in agony.
Because Tang Yu's strike was incredibly powerful.
After witnessing this scene, everyone gathered before the remains.
I could only silently repeat it in my heart.
"Don't blame me, Tang Yu made me smoke it."
They then began to forcefully lash the whips in their hands into the group of corpses.
Tang Yu, meanwhile, looked at the list in his hand with great interest.
The reactions of several people on the list when they were whipped earlier have already cleared Tang Yu of suspicion.
To be honest, if he could, Tang Yu would not have wanted to use such an extreme method.
After all, it is indeed wrong to desecrate a corpse.
Even if those people did commit heinous crimes, their corpses should not be desecrated.
However, the system usually only gives Tang Yu rewards for events that have a significant impact.
For example, in this case, Tang Yu originally thought that the other party would at least give him some investigative techniques, or some professional equipment, etc.
Combining this with the crime dramas Tang Yu watched in his previous life, he can more than solve cases using the experience he gained from them.
However, to his surprise, the system gave him a Gatling gun under these circumstances.
how to say?
It's not that it's completely useless, but rather that it's utterly superfluous.
That's why Tang Yu adopted this method.
This method was actually somewhat useful only in ancient China.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Liu Bang was in a situation where his wife and parents were captured by Xiang Yu and about to be boiled into soup.
Instead of rescuing him, Liu Bang said, "Remember to share a bowl of soup with me."
But if someone were to use such methods to humiliate the remains of your relatives and friends, or even your parents and family members, then...
In this era, absolutely no one in ancient times, who had received various forms of education, could tolerate it.
Especially in this era where filial piety is of paramount importance.
"Okay, next one."
Tang Yu looked at the person who walked up.
This man's name was Chen Dao, and he was also a nobleman in Handan.
And it seems they have been in Handan for many years.
However, according to Tang Yu's calculations based on the timeline, the period in which he appeared was after the Ji family, one of the original major noble families, was wiped out.
The timing matches.
Moreover, he was one of the people in the crowd who reacted.
Naturally, he was also included on Tang Yu's list.
Tang Yu would naturally pay close attention to those who met the two criteria.
As Chen Dao walked forward, Tang Yu noticed that his expression was completely different from the others.
Others were afraid, terrified, and somewhat reluctant.
Chen Dao, however, remained expressionless.
Some were even completely uneventful.
In this case, unless one is someone who completely disregards the various forms of education and culture of this era.
There is only one possibility.
That means he was completely heartbroken.
Something's wrong with Chen Dao.
Tang Yu winked at Shen Lang beside him.
Shen Lang immediately led the Imperial Guards and slowly approached Chen Dao.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the person in front handed the whip to Chen Dao.
Chen Dao did not go to answer it.
Instead, he looked up at Tang Yu with a righteous and indignant expression.
He questioned.
"Your Excellency, may I ask you a question?"
Tang Yu nodded.
"Ask me anything."
"My first question is, Grand Preceptor, are you sure you won't be punished by heaven for your actions?"
"Knowing full well that the truth was not caused by ghosts, but by human intervention, they still pinned all the blame on a group of dead people."
"Is it that they lack the ability and courage to continue the investigation?"
"Or are you trying to appease the people and get it over with hastily?"
"The second question, Grand Preceptor."
"What I want to ask is that all the schools of thought in the past, regardless of which one, believed that everything would disappear after a person died."
As the saying goes, "When a person dies, their debts are wiped out; the dead are the greatest."
"Is it really reasonable for the Grand Preceptor to so casually desecrate the remains of the dead, and in such an extreme way at that?"
Upon hearing this person's words, the group of people began to discuss it animatedly.
They could also tell that this was not the work of a ghost.
This person's answer, however, raised the doubts that had been lingering in their minds.
But the next moment, Tang Yu's words immediately drew their attention to this person.
"You don't need to ask me the first two questions; you might as well ask me the third one."
How did I discover your existence?
