The old woman told Xia Yu her story, the old woman's surname was Pan, born in a small mountain village in Chengping Kingdom, her ancestors have been farmers for generations, facing the loess all day long, just to get a full bite to eat.

When Pan was fifteen years old, his father was in charge and married a teacher who was more than a decade older than him. This teacher is very poor and old-fashioned, and after Pan and he got married, there is no agitation (qíng), and (rì) is as plain as water.

Soon after the marriage, Pan became pregnant and gave birth to a baby boy, and this baby boy was Wande.

When Wande was two years old, a group of merchants came to the small mountain village where Pan lived, and among them was a handsome young man in his twenties. When Pan was shopping, he said a few words to this handsome young man, and was immediately conquered by the charm of the handsome young man.

Pan and the handsome young man gave birth to (ài) (qíng), left Wande in swaddling clothes, and fled from the small mountain village with the handsome young man.

Pan thought that the handsome young man would grow old with him for the rest of his life, but in fact, the handsome young man just regarded Pan as a plaything.

After leaving the small mountain village and arriving at the county seat, the handsome young man sold the Pan family to the Qinglou. Amid Pan's cries, the handsome young man took the silver ticket and left.

Since then, Pan has never seen this handsome young man again.

Pan has fallen into the dust, and she attributes it all to the arrangement of fate. People are just duckweed, no matter how much they struggle, they can't resist the whirlpool of fate.

Pan accepted the arrangement of fate and made a living by selling jokes in the Qinglou, which lasted for decades, until he was old and decrepit and was expelled from the Qinglou.

Just when the Pan clan was lonely, by chance, the Pan clan met Wande, who was the lord of the city. Wande has a birthmark on his wrist, which is exactly the same as the birthmark of his son in Pan's memory.

Pan thought it was just a coincidence, his son stayed in a small mountain village, and he was thankful that he could be a farmer with food and clothing, how could he become the lord of the city?

Over the years, Pan has not returned to the small mountain village, nor has she inquired about her husband and son, she feels that she has no face to go back, face her relatives, her husband, and her son.

However, there was still a trace of thought in Pan's heart, what if this Weidao City Lord was really his son?

The Pan clan quietly inquired and was shocked, this Weidao City Lord Wande was really his son!

The sense of (qíng), which has been hidden for decades, swells up in his heart, and Pan's sorrow and joy are mixed with joy and sorrow, and it is difficult to calm down. She came to the City Lord's Mansion to recognize Wande.

Wande walked out of the mountain village, relying on hard work and luck, climbing up step by step, and finally climbed to the position of the city lord.

After Wande became the lord of Weidao City, he began to purge the people's customs and preach courtesy, righteousness and shame.

When Pan left, Wande was less than two years old, waiting to be fed, and was raised by his father with a handful of and urine. Wande once asked his father what about his mother. Father told Wande, your mother has died a long time ago.

When Wande grew up, he heard some rumors and knew that his mother had eloped with a businessman.

Wande felt that he couldn't hold his head up in front of others, and his friends often bullied him, calling him "raised by a bitch".

That kind of humiliation was deeply seared in Wande's young heart.

Wan De hated Pan, who not only did not give his mother (ài), but also allowed himself to suffer endless humiliation

。

Under heavy pressure, Wande's hatred for Pan began to expand little by little, expanding to his hatred for all women. Wande felt that as a woman, he must abide by women's morals, so he formulated the "Moral Education Regulations" to restrain the women of Weidao City.

Wande thought that Pan had died outside a long time ago, but he didn't expect that the elderly Pan was still alive and found himself.

Wande didn't want to recognize Pan, and when he walked out of the small mountain village, Wande changed his name and forged (shēn) to become a new person and cut off all the humiliating pasts.

Wande wanted to drive away Pan, but Pan cried, knelt in front of Wande, howled, and confessed his mistake to Wande.

Wande looked at Pan and thought, this woman gave me life, I can't kill her. However, if she goes around talking nonsense, everything I have worked so hard to gain may be lost because of her.

Wande thought about it, and finally decided to put Pan in a secret room under the ghost temple and not let her see anyone.

Wande locked the ghost temple with a big lock to prevent anyone from discovering Pan.

After listening to Pan's story, Xia Yu was speechless, he felt that although there was something wrong with Pan, after so many years, Wande still refused to forgive Pan, and Pan's was very pitiful for locking Pan in this secret room.

A person who does not know how to forgive will never be happy.

Even if Wande becomes the lord of the city and becomes the lord of one party, he is also a pathetic person.

Xia Yu said: "Old lady, after I go out, I will definitely let Wande let you out." ”

Pan said: "De'er is very stubborn and vicious, if you persuade him, he will kill you." ”

Xia Yu smiled slightly and said, "No, I have a way, and I will definitely be able to persuade Wande to change his ways." ”

Pan Shi looked at Xia Yu, burst into tears again, and choked up: "If De'er can treat me like you, I will be happy even if I die." ”

Xia Yu comforted Pan again and calmed down her (qíng) feelings.

If he wanted to rescue Pan, Xia Yu first had to escape by himself, Xia Yu looked around and found that this secret room was surrounded by four walls, and there was not even a single door or window.

Xia Yu turned his brain, thinking of a way to escape, and suddenly, when he saw the food on the table, his eyes lit up, and he asked Pan, "Old lady, how did you get this food in?"

Pan pointed to the distance and said, "There is a teleportation port, and the food is delivered through the teleportation port. ”

Xia Yu walked over, opened the teleportation, and found that there was a deep and dark passage inside.

Xia Yu said goodbye to the old man Pan, got into the passage, and used the gecko climbing technique of the Heavenly Storm Star and the Sky Crying Star, climbed up quickly, and climbed to the top, there was a wooden board at the top that was blocking it, and the wooden board was alive and could be moved.

(In "Water Margin", the Sky Storm Star is a two-headed snake - Xie Zhen, the Sky Crying Star is a two-tailed scorpion - Xie Bao, and Orion is out (shēn), good at climbing)

Xia Yu spread out his spiritual power and investigated, there was no one outside the plank, he pushed the plank away and got out of the passage.

Xia Yu stood outside the passage and watched, and he placed himself (shēn) in a kitchen, which was dark and quiet, and there was no one but him.

Xia Yu felt a little hungry, after entering the City Lord's Mansion, he was either fighting or running, the little food in his stomach had long been consumed, and now he was so hungry that he was stuck to his back.

Xia Yu in the kitchen

I looked for it, and there were chickens, ducks, fish (ròu), melons, fruits and vegetables, but they were all raw, and this thing didn't taste good.

At this time, Xia Yu smelled a fragrance wafting from a distance, he followed the fragrance forward, pushed open a door, entered a large room, and was stunned by the scene in front of him.

The big room in front of Xia Yu was as big as a gymnasium, with bronze trees standing. These bronze trees were three or four meters high, with branches and dark red sticks hanging from them.

Xia Yu walked over, looked at it, smelled it, his eyes lit up, and exclaimed: "This is (ròu) dry, he's (nǎi) (nǎi), so much (ròu) dry." ”

There are dozens of bronze trees standing in the big house, and each bronze tree is covered with (ròu) stems, densely packed, and it is really a (ròu) forest.

Xia Yu looked carefully and saw a large pond in the middle of the forest (ròu), like a swimming pool, full of liquid. The liquid looked very thick and gave off a booze aroma.

Xia Yu ran over, leaned down (shēn), scooped up the liquid in the pool and took a sip, his eyebrows fluttered, and he shouted: "This is wine, good wine, elixir and jade liquid." ”

Xia Yu grabbed the (ròu) stem from the bronze branch, ate it, and when he was thirsty, he went to the edge of the wine pool and drank the wine inside.

It's (ròu) again, it's wine again, eat and drink casually, and the energy in Xia Yu's body is quickly replenished.

After eating and drinking, Xia Yu sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and used his internal strength to restore his true qi.

The true qi in his body had almost recovered, and Xia Yu heard someone outside knocking on the gong, shouting while knocking:

"Xia Yu, listen well, take the big seal and go to morality (diàn), if it's too late, your companions won't survive!"

The officers and soldiers searched for a long time but did not find Xia Yu, so Wande thought of this method and threatened Xia Yu with the lives of Li Tie, Liu Changsheng, and Leng Shuangyan.

Xia Yu let out a sigh of relief, moved his muscles, walked out of the wine pool (ròu) forest, walked to the door, kicked it over, bang, like thunder, and kicked the door panel into the sky.

When several officers and soldiers outside who were beating gongs and shouting heard this loud noise, they trembled in fright, shēn, and almost fell to the ground.

Xia Yu looked at those officers and soldiers coldly and said, "I am Xia Yu, and the person you are looking for is me." ”

The officers and soldiers knew that Xia Yu was making trouble in the city lord's mansion tonight and killing people without blinking, and looking at Xia Yu, the officers and soldiers felt a chill hit all over the place (shēn), cold, and cold.

Xia Yu said: "Where is morality (diàn), take me quickly." ”

The officers and men swallowed a mouthful of saliva, suppressed the panic in their hearts, trembled, and led the way in front.

Xia Yu roared: "Don't grind, hurry up!"

The officers and soldiers quickened their speed and walked forward with Xia Yu, passing through the ruins and coming to Daode (diàn).

Daode (diàn) is the largest and most magnificent building in the mansion of the lord of Wande City, just like the great male treasure (diàn) in the temple, (diàn) in front of an open field, Wande, the flower-faced general, the spider general, and many officers and soldiers are gathered there.

In the open space outside Daode (diàn), three huge cobwebs were formed, and Li Tie, Liu Changsheng, and Leng Shuangyan were all glued to the cobwebs.

Wande sat on a chair and drank tea slowly, a strong man was impatient to wait, and came to Wande's (shēn) side, and said: "My lord, I don't think that kid named Xia Yu will come, just hand over these three people to me, and I will make you a delicious dish that is fragrant with wine." ”
