「To follow the example of another person, to change under the influence of another, to be inspired to emulate another, to be affected and become the same state as another」by applying a「sharp blade with mons pubis meat」clearly is suggestive of SHAVING the pubic region of all females in the harem or brothel by SCRAPING OFF the hair with a very sharp tool in order to PARE FROM, REDUCE, REMOVE the bother to clients and the risk of pubic crabs, with not the least other benefit being that it caused them all to appear to possess younger sex appeal and hence generate more requests (and revenue) for those specifically related services. Note that in dynastic China, it was not the custom of men to shave their face, unless the man was a miscreant.
　「Reaming flesh of small young mons venus」suggests REMOVING THE OUTER LAYER, breaking that outer membrane, the hymen, by FRAYING its edge.
　「Small meaty flesh cuts」means to PARE, WHITTLE, SHAVE SLICES, REDUCE, as in slicing extra thin pastrami in a delicatessen, or more likely, the Chinese torture technique of cutting ultra-thin slices of living tissue from a victim's meaty parts. Note that the two elements of「meat, sever」without the「small」element (刖) referred to slicing the living flesh from a person in the most punishing manner imaginable, to DELETE, ERASE, REDUCE built up scar tissue that formed within the urethra during a dose of the clap.
　Nonetheless:「According to apocryphal lore, língchí began when the torturer, wielding an extremely sharp knife, began by putting out the eyes, rendering the condemned incapable of seeing the remainder of the torture and, presumably, adding considerably to the psychological terror of the procedure. Successive rather minor cuts chopped off ears, nose, tongue, fingers, toes and genitals before proceeding to grosser cuts that removed large portions of flesh from more sizable parts, e.g., thighs and shoulders. The entire process was said to last three days, and to total 3,600 cuts. The heavily carved bodies of the deceased were then put on a parade for a show in the public. Some victims were reportedly given doses of opium, but accounts differ as to whether the drug was said to amplify or alleviate suffering.」
