First, flogging (flogging)
This kind of punishment came from Xia and Shang Dynasties. There are two main ways to execute punishment, namely, cutting off the prisoner's foot directly from the ankle or gouging out the prisoner's kneecap with a sharp knife (pay attention to gouging out, not cutting, which makes me shudder to think about it). It won't kill you, but it's extremely cruel. I was shocked when I saw this punishment in elementary school, so although it won't kill you, I still want to mention it.
Prisoner 1: Sun Bin-a famous strategist and strategist in the Warring States Period.
Sun Bin is a descendant of the grandson of a military strategist and a legalist, and his military talents are outstanding. The famous "Tian Ji Horse Racing" was Sun Bin's idea. But his talent was envied by his friend Pang Juan, the general of Wei, and Pang Juan slandered the monarch of Wei, so Sun Bin was brutally punished. Later, he pretended to be crazy and escaped death. He was taken to Qi, became a strategist of Qi, and wrote Sun Bin's Art of War, but it was lost.
Sun Bin and Pang Juan.
Prisoner 2: Bian He-the discoverer of Hebi
Heshibi is the jade of the famous allusion "Return to Zhao in perfect condition" in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Bian He, a native of Chu State, got a jadeite stone in Jingshan, so he gave it to Li Wang, but after being identified as a stone, he was sentenced to flogging and his left foot was broken. He didn't give up, and then gave it to King Wu, but it was still identified as a stone. Great, his right foot is missing. (Damn these appraisers! ) Without legs, the baby was described as a stone, and he was wronged as a liar. Bian He collapsed, holding the jade and crying at the foot of Jingshan. At this time, King Wen was in power, asking why he was crying. (Go to hell) Bian He said sadly, "Baoyu was called a stone, and the loyal minister was called a liar. Of course I cried." King Wen had the stone broken, so he got a peerless treasure jade. In order to appease Bian He and commemorate his achievements, he named this piece of jade "Jade of Harmony", and Bian He had a good ending and was named Marquis.
Return the jade to Zhao intact-return it to its original owner.
Second, cooking (boiling)
Even more exciting, cooking and killing began in the Western Zhou Dynasty. Prisoners are put into a cauldron or cauldron, filled with water (some people say it's oil, but according to many records, it's mostly water), and then slowly heated to cook people. Prisoners usually die of burns, which is extremely painful. If I sentence you to this, I might as well hit the wall and die.
