The death of a thousand blades


I am now certain that Sir Henry Norman travelogue "The peoples and politics of the Far East" (1895) Guy Boothby in bookcase stood. How many times have I been in this blog back to them to get some background on the "Expedition of Dr. Nikola" show. This time it's about the "Death of a Thousand Blades" , the Nikola Wilfred Bruce speaks with his companion. You are talking about their Chinese helpers Laohwan, and Nikola declared that he would rather die the death of a thousand blades than him, Nikola deceiving.

Originally from Boothby means:

He would rather die the death of a Thousand Cuts than betray me.

does not cut now course blade but section But death of a thousand blades initially does not sound impressive than death of a thousand cuts . Of the thing itself fits her death of a thousand cuts better because it is truly a lot of cuts that are the victim (with only one blade) was added. Anyway, if you miss him as thousands of jingling epithets or thousand cuts, this beastly death remains the case. Sir Henry Norman (p. 224 f.) describes the method of execution as follows: A Chinese

penalty method, (...), deserves special attention. It is ling-chi, or the death of a thousand cuts . This is described as slow die or In-cutting pieces . This penalty is three times the killers and murderers reserved parents, but the law is probably similar to elastic as in other aspects.

(...)

The culprits will be bound to a rough cross, and equipped the executioner, with a sharp knife attacks, gradually familiar with a few of the fleshy parts of the body, such as the legs or chest, and cut them off. Then he removed the nose, ears, fingers and toes. Then the limbs are gradually cut off, first at the ankles and wrists, then at the knees and elbows, and shoulders at the last the hips. Finally, the heart of the victim pierced and cut off his head. Of course, the delinquent (...) long before the dead end if he has friends who are able to bribe the executioner, he is drugged with opium, or stab in the heart is running right after the first cuts.

It's unbelievable what people do to each other. Somehow I doubt that Laohwan has feared death more effectively than it was before Dr. Nikola of this kind.
