Chapter 1: Shocking Changes (1)

The last years of the Yuan Dynasty.

Quanzhou Mansion, the largest port in the Central Plains, the concentration of seaborne materials in the world, and also a trade distribution center that the Yuan court paid the most attention to.

It's late autumn, and although the weather is a little cold in the morning and evening, the sun still shines down in the morning, but it still makes people feel a little hot.

Fourteen-year-old Shang Yu pushed a wheelbarrow from the market to the outside, the bag was empty, originally containing dozens of catties of qumei fruit has been sold, in the past, every autumn, Shang Yu's father would take him to the mountains to collect, over time, he learned the technique of climbing between the cliffs.

This fruit only bears fruit on the plum trees that grow between the cliffs, and the yield is low and it is not easy to pick, so the price in the market is good, and he was lucky enough to meet a maid who went out among the rich merchants in the city, and bought all the fruits in one fell swoop.

The market is crowded with people, and the noise is endless.

"Freshly pine seed cake! Come and take a look! Two for a penny! ”

"Take a look, take a look! Exotic blankets from tens of thousands of miles away! Each foot is only sold for one hundred and fifty Wen, all kinds of exotic items are complete in our store, all the folks and elders come into the store to see! ”

"The yellow rice of the year! It's cheap, it's cheap! Sixty Wen and one bucket! ”

In Quanzhou Prefecture, there are vendors with accents from all over the world, and the atmosphere in the whole market seems to be very lively.

Shang Yu was a little tired from pushing the cart, and when he reached a wide place, he leaned the cart aside and took off his shabby coat.

"It's so hot! The first time I went out to the city by myself, but unfortunately my father left the Western Regions, and I don't know when I will be able to come back! My mother is not in good health now, these qu plum fruits are finally sold at a good price today, these Xu Yinliang will be taken back, and my mother and I will be able to live this winter! After that, thinking of the one or two or seven cents of silver that he had just obtained from the sale of Qu Mei Guo in his underwear clothes, he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.

This was the first time he had entered the city alone, and Shang Yu still remembered what his mother said before dawn: "Now this world!" You have to pay attention to what you do, when you go to the city, you must stay away when you meet the officers and soldiers, don't get into trouble because of the excitement, and come back early after selling these fruits, so as to save your mother's worries! ”

"This market is on the edge of the city, but there are so many people that I didn't go inside if I knew it, and I couldn't leave the cart for half a day! Do you want to go to the port of Thornton to see the sails that sail overseas? It seems that there must not be enough time. ”

"Seeing that the time has passed, I still went to Jishantang as soon as possible to get medicine for my mother. Fortunately, it is not far from here, if you don't rush home before dark! My mother is worried about my accident again! Thinking of this, Shang Yu sighed a little disappointed, pushed the car back and walked forward.

At this moment, there was a sudden chaos in front of the market, and I could hear someone shouting not far ahead: "Oh no! Officers and soldiers are searching for the red turban thief! Let's get out of the way! ”

For a while, many of the owners of the stalls in the bazaar had a bitter face, hurriedly put the goods into the back car, and prepared to leave. The men who were shouting outside the doors of the shops also hurried into the store, but they stuck out their heads and looked curiously at the place where the sound came from.

I could only hear the sound of horses' hooves not far ahead, if these officers and soldiers catch thieves, it doesn't matter what you do, and this is just the most inconspicuous civilian market in the market, not a big market on the port side, trampling or breaking something, or taking something away, as a southerner, the civilians will definitely not dare to speak, otherwise it is likely that their heads will be cut off.

Hearing the shouting from in front of him, Shang Yu couldn't help but be startled, seeing that he couldn't get farther, he hurriedly pushed the wheelbarrow to the side of the road, thinking to himself, "I don't have anything on me!" Let it be on the sidelines, and if you don't stop the officers and soldiers, you will be fine! ”

After hiding aside, he secretly thought to himself: "Quanzhou Mansion was originally very safe, how could there be any officers and soldiers catching thieves and disturbing the people at this time?" ”

The pedestrians on the street also began to give way to both sides, only to hear the sound of swords and soldiers in front of them at this time, and at this time there was a road vacant in the middle of the street, and I saw several horsemen galloping towards this place, and the sound of horses' hooves was very urgent, and a large cloud of dust and smoke was raised. The first two horsemen were chased by the rear horses, and I don't know why.

The man in the first place was lying on horseback, and he couldn't see clearly! The man on the horse behind him was raising his sword to resist him and stabbing the soldiers with spears in his hands, making a "sonorous" sound.

While moving his hands, the man also shouted loudly: "You are so bold! How dare you defile us as red scarf thieves! Do you know who the man is right away? ”

One of the commanding places that followed behind sneered and said, "When they see our officers and soldiers, they dodge and dodge, ghosts and ghosts worship the land, and they also hold a lot of silver tickets!" In addition, if a woman disguises herself as a man, if it is our Qianhu Lord's local words, we will definitely arrest it first, and then talk about it, Quanzhou Mansion will never tolerate the existence of ghosts like you! Before you can be captured, my soldiers have blocked the exit of the market, and you don't want to escape! ”

Thinking that when they were searching, the two of them had taken out a large denomination of silver tickets to dredge up, and there was a hint of indifference on their faces, this hundred households said: "Judging from the gesture of taking out the silver tickets, there must be more silver tickets on these two people, and they are actually dressed as men!" It must not be a good way to go! ”

"Bastard thing! Blind your dogs! It's just a king's law, you see what this is? ...... Yes! "The man who had always resisted the fighting of the officers and soldiers had been stabbed in the throat with a gun, and with blood splashed everywhere, he was thrown off his horse and fell to the bluestone road on the ground, his hand reached into his chest and he died before he could take it out.

"These Yuan troops are using this name to fight the autumn wind indiscriminately, and the same is true of this first commercial port! You say that if we can really conquer this city in the future, will the tax revenue here alone be enough to keep our marshal from worrying about all the expenses? A man wearing a religious hat whispered to those around him.

"Yes! These meta dogs are simply insane! It is no wonder that the marshal asked us to investigate the military situation in Fujian and Zhejiang all the way, and even did not take care of such an important tax place, and the days of Yuan Dog were not long! The person next to him has a face like a heavy jujube, big hands and feet, and big eyes, but the whole person gives people a very imposing feeling.

While talking, the two glanced at Shang Yu as if intentionally or unintentionally, and saw that Shang Yu was just a teenager, and he was a few meters away, so they relieved themselves.

Shang Yu heard the words of the two clearly, and his ears were super strong, which was also a special skill of his, when hunting in the mountains, in recent years, he could always hear the sound of the prey first, and Shang Yu's father was also puzzled by this.

I was secretly shocked: "These two people are clearly the people of the Red Turban Army!" And what is the identity of the man on the horse? But at this time, his young body could not help but tremble slightly, he had never seen such a bloody scene before, and the man who had been shot in the throat fell on the street more than ten meters away from him, but he was also frightened.

"Lilu! Oh, my God! But the man on the horse in front of him never fled, and when he saw his companion fall to the ground with a shot of his companion, he immediately rolled down from his horse and ran towards the dead man.

The hundred households sneered and said, "Soldiers, listen to orders!" Immediately tie up this red-scarf thief and sister-in-law, and we will immediately take her to see Qianhu. With a wave of his hand, the pride was overflowing.

Several of the soldiers immediately dismounted, drew their short knives at their waists, and pressed at the man, while one of them took out a knuckle-thick rope from his horse's backpack and prepared to come forward to tie him.

Shang Yu saw this scene nearby, and sighed in his heart: "Listening to the voice, this person is clearly a girl!" These officers and soldiers obviously wanted to make money and kill them, but they falsely accused them of being red turban thieves! Is this world really as Mr. Xiao said, incorrigible? ”

At this moment, a loud shout suddenly sounded a few meters away from him, which frightened his body and trembled.

"Bastard thing! It's too much, this kind of officers and soldiers are really too deceitful! Brother Tang! This matter must not be left alone! Two figures flew out of his side and flew towards the middle of the field.
