Chapter 301 Making Bone Broth
Everyone watched Tang Yu give the order and swallowed hard.
"Gudu."
To put it nicely, boiling water can ward off evil spirits...
To put it bluntly, isn't this just boiled human bones?
It's made from human bones, and not only human bones, but the bones of dead people are what you're making!
Even after being dead for so many years, they still can't rest in peace; their bones are dragged out to be made into soup.
My God, as the saying goes, killing someone is just a matter of beheading them.
The others looked at Tang Yu with horror in their eyes.
It should be noted that even though Ying Zheng had such a deep-seated hatred for this family, he only killed them.
But now that I'm in your hands, not only will I not be able to kill you, but I won't even be able to rest in peace after death.
It was forcibly taken out and used to make soup.
Is this even a method that a human could come up with?
Everyone looked at Tang Yu in shock.
Eventually, a few nobles couldn't help but step forward and speak out.
"Your Excellency, please reconsider!"
With two people taking the lead, the others quickly followed suit.
"Your Excellency, please reconsider!"
Seeing this, Tang Yu raised his eyes and looked at the two of them with great interest.
It's not that he thinks these two are the ones who are secretly planning this operation.
He knew that his behavior would definitely not be accepted or rejected in this era.
And what he was about to do next was the same.
However, he intended to take advantage of the broken windows theory.
Since you dissuaded me from doing something even more outrageous the first time, and made you have a mental expectation of what was to come.
So, you can't stop it from happening a second time, can you?
Otherwise, are you looking down on the Great Qin, or on our national teacher Tang Yu?
The two people who came to stop them were indeed just as Tang Yu had predicted.
They have no connection whatsoever with this incident or with the Ji family of the past.
They only stepped forward to dissuade him because they felt that killing was just a minor offense and Tang Yu's actions were too ruthless.
Moreover, they felt that they were all nobles, and the Ji family was more powerful than them at the time.
Even the Ji family could not escape such misfortune.
If they were to fall into Tang Yu's hands someday, would they face even more severe punishment?
Therefore, considering both reason and emotion, they ultimately gritted their teeth and stepped forward to stop Tang Yu.
They were even prepared for Tang Yu to be furious, or rather, to reprimand them.
To their surprise, Tang Yu was not angry at all; instead, he looked up and stared at the two of them with great interest.
Finally, he slowly nodded.
"Since you have all come out to dissuade me, I think there is some truth to what you have said."
"However, this exorcism ritual still needs to be carried out as soon as possible."
"After all, if the ghost goes to Handan again to harm people and causes the deaths of civilians, then it will be your responsibility."
Everyone breathed a long sigh of relief when they heard that Tang Yu had finally decided to stop boiling these old bones in hot water.
The person hidden in the crowd gave the two of them a grateful look.
After all, these two were protecting the remains of his relatives and friends.
Their kindness should be remembered no matter what.
Tang Yu watched as everyone moved back and forth.
It was as if he was thinking.
Finally, he looked up at the group of people and said with some excitement.
"But if that's the case, then we can't use boiling water to ward off evil spirits now."
"Then why don't we use whipping to exorcise the evil spirits, and suppress their ghosts with our righteous energy and anger? What do you say?"
Upon hearing that Tang Yu first gave up boiling the bones in water and then chose to use a whip to beat the bones.
They all looked at Tang Yu with strange eyes.
Do you think Tang Yu has awakened some strange fetish?
Otherwise, why would they do that?
"Hmm, doesn't that seem a bit inappropriate?"
"What should I do?"
The nobles and officials looked at each other.
His expression was extremely awkward.
They felt that although it wasn't as cruel as boiling bones in hot water, it was still inhumane.
However, things weren't much better.
After all, using a whip to pull bones is, to put it nicely, called exorcising evil spirits.
To put it bluntly, isn't this just desecrating a corpse?
"Your Excellency, I... um..."
Before he could finish speaking, Tang Yu stared at him with wide eyes.
It was as if his eyes were saying, "How dare you question me?"
The man was startled and quickly lowered his head.
Tang Yu then nodded in satisfaction.
"In that case, let's proceed immediately."
After saying that, a long cowhide whip appeared in the hands of these soldiers.
The quality looks to be quite good.
Just as the soldiers were about to whip the bones, Tang Yu suddenly stepped forward and spoke.
"Gentlemen, simply using a whip to ward off evil spirits is not enough."
"How about this: while using the whip, we should also gather the strength and righteousness of all of us, and use our righteousness to suppress their ghosts?"
"In that case, let each of us present do it."
"Everyone present had to step forward and select one of the remains, and each person was whipped three times."
What do you all think of my suggestion?
The nobles were completely terrified.
They never expected that Tang Yu would face one problem after another.
Furthermore, his ideas were far too advanced for this era.
Now it's not just Tang Yu who wants to desecrate the corpse.
Tang Yu even wanted them to whip the corpse as well.
The person in the crowd had clenched his fists and was looking at Tang Yu with resentment.
He never imagined that anyone could come up with such a vicious and despicable scheme.
But now he is helpless.
Because he knew that circumstances were beyond his control.
There's nothing he can do to stop Tang Yu from doing what he wants to do now.
He could only pray that he wouldn't be drawn in the next draw.
At this moment, Tang Yu slowly spoke.
"Now, my teacher will take the lead and lash each of you three times, and then it will be your turn."
"Start with the nobles; each of them must strike this corpse three times with force."
"Otherwise, these three lashes will fall on you."
After saying that, Tang Yu raised his whip.
"Crack, snap, snap."
Tang Yu randomly selected three skeletons and lashed them three times with all his might.
In an instant, the three skeletons were smashed to pieces.
Tang Yu looked at his masterpiece and nodded in satisfaction.
"Not bad, not bad, you still have some strength."
He then handed the whip directly to Zhao Qiang, who was trembling in the crowd, and slowly began to speak.
"Now it's your turn."
"Quickly pick some from them, even if they are just wreckage or something else."
"Give him three lashes."
