The world is bustling, all for profit; The world is crowded, all for profit. Since the Spring and Autumn Period, after the king of Chuzhuang asked Sun Man, the king of the Zhou Dynasty, about the weight of the nine tripods, the reputation of Zhou Tianzi plummeted.

During the Spring and Autumn Five Hegemonic Period, the princes and overlords often dominated the world in the name of respecting the king, and Zhou Tianzi still had a trace of dignity at this time.

However, after entering the Warring States Period, the princes fought chaotically for many years, and the Zhou Dynasty basically existed in name only, and no one took Zhou Tianzi in their eyes, and even a trace of respect on face no longer existed.

The Warring States was divided into seven heroes, Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei, and Qin.

In the early days of the Warring States period, Wei was the best in the world.

Since Wei Wenhou appointed Wu Qi, Li Kui, Le Yang, Ximen Leopard and other capable people and virtuous ministers, he cultivated virtue and politics internally, governed martial arts externally, enriched the country and strengthened the army, opened up the territory and expanded the territory, and made Wei become the most powerful prince.

As for the Marquis of Wei Wu and King Huiwen of Wei, they frequently sent troops to neighboring countries.

The state of Qin bordered the state of Wei, and was the most persecuted by it, and was even in danger of losing the country.

The world has been inferior to Qin for a long time, and the countries of Shandong have always called Qin a country of barbarians, and regarded the Qin people as barbarian people.

The princes are humble and ugly.

After Qin Xiaogong ascended the throne, he issued an order to seek talents and recruit talents from all over the world.

When it was, Shang Ying, a disciple of Uncle Acne of the State of Wei, was happy.

Ming monarchs and ministers were confidants when they first met, and they talked thoroughly for two days and two nights without feeling tired.

Thus, the world-shaking Shang Ying reform began.

Shang Jun abandoned the well fields, emphasized agriculture and mulberry, rewarded military merits, implemented unified measurement and established a county system, and a set of development strategies such as changing the law and seeking innovation.

Twenty years later, the state of Qin became a great power, and as a result, the world no longer dared to humble Qin.

Qin Xiaogong did not, and his son Qin Huiwen Wang Yingsi ascended the throne. King Huiwen of Qin inherited the will of his ancestors and pursued the law of Shang Ying.

In the seventh year of Yingsi's reign, the old clan headed by Gan Long Du Zhi wanted to restore and force the new monarch to abolish the law of Shang Jun. As a result, Wei took advantage of the unstable situation in Qin and raised troops to press in.

Win Si worshiped the Wei Gongsun Yan as the Great Liang and led the Qin army to a decisive battle with the Wei State in Hexi.

In this battle, the Qin army annihilated 80,000 Wei troops in one fell swoop, captured the commander of the Wei army, General Long Jia, and forced Wei to return all the important places in Hexi that had been occupied for many years to Qin, and the whole country was happy.

However, there was a lot of sorrow in Baiyi Village, Longxi County, Qin State.

There was a young general Bai Yi in Baihe Village, who became a commander in his early twenties, and was a rising general star in the Great Qin State.

However, Bai Yi was killed in the battle of Hexi, and his bones did not exist.

Bai Yi's wife's name is Meng Yao, and she is a descendant of the Meng family of the Qin family.

It has been one year and six months since Meng was pregnant at the end of the previous year.

One day in the twelfth month of Meng's pregnancy, she was seen by a crazy grandmother in the village who knew a little about witchcraft.

This look frightened the crazy grandmother to the point of screaming, and she was talking about the ghost fetus, and the ghost fetus was coming, and the whole village would be in great trouble.

Since then, the mad grandmother's madness has gone crazy again, wandering around the back mountains, and has been shouting about ghosts. When you are thirsty, you drink mountain spring water, and when you are hungry, you eat wild fruits, and no matter how the villagers of Baiyi Village persuade them, they will not return to Baiyi Village.

At this moment, the villagers were frightened.

If it's other people's nonsense, this crazy grandma wasn't crazy when she was young.

The crazy grandmother is not only not crazy but also very good at witchcraft, curing many strange and miscellaneous diseases for the villagers of Baiyi Village and nearby villages, and often giving people good luck and evil, tending to avoid good fortune and misfortune, and there are many middle ones, so she has a high status in Baiyi Village and is regarded as a god.

Because Grandma has the ability to communicate with the gods, she divulged the secret of heaven, so she went crazy before she was thirty years old.

When the villagers heard this, they were horrified and wanted to get rid of the Meng clan and let the ghost fetus have nowhere to parasitize and die together, so as to prevent Baiyi Village from suffering an unwarranted disaster.

However, Bai Yi was a young general, so he naturally did not believe the witch's words, and he once sternly warned the villagers that if they dared to be disrespectful to the Meng clan, he would have to pay the debt with blood.

Therefore, when Bai Yi was alive, the people in the village naturally did not dare to treat the Meng family.

This time, in the first battle of Hexi, Bai Yi died on the battlefield and his bones did not exist.

The old people of Baihe Village said that this was a ghost fetus, and Bai Yi was killed, and soon it was Meng's family, and then the villagers of Baihe Village.

On the seventh day of the seventh month of July, the sky was cloudy, gloomy and breathless.

On this day, it was the day of General Bai Yi's funeral, although there were no bones, the hometown people made a tomb for him to commemorate the young general.

Ordinary clothing mounds are replaced by items such as clothes and hats worn by the deceased.

However, General Bai Yi's well-dressed mound was actually buried with a living person, and the burial person was his wife Meng, who had been pregnant for a year and a half.

Bai Yi has been an orphan since he was a child and grew up eating hundreds of meals. The villagers have always blamed General Bai Yi's death on Meng and the 'ghost fetus' he was carrying.

Therefore, when the villagers proposed to bury Meng alive, no one objected.

Meng Shi is really a poor woman, who has just experienced the pain of losing her husband and has not yet recovered, and she was forced to either have a fetus or be buried with her.

She naturally refused to have a fetus, she could clearly feel the movement of the fetus, and she didn't believe that it was a ghost fetus anyway, but this child would definitely be unusual in the future, and he would definitely be a big man.

She heard her husband say that at the end of Shang Tang, Chen Tangguan Li Jing's wife was pregnant for three years, and finally gave birth to the elf Nezha, which became a good story for a while.

Although what she is pregnant with is not necessarily Nezha, she is by no means an ordinary man.

It's just that as soon as Bai Yi died, she was helpless.

Although the mother's family has a father and brother, but the father is old, the eldest brother joined the army and died on the battlefield as soon as he became an adult, and the second brother and third brother are not yet ten years old, where will someone make the decision for her.

In the pre-Qin period, it was not uncommon for living people to be buried.

However, that is the qualification only of emperors and princes. Although there are also living people who are buried, it is rare.

After the Qin State changed the law of Shang Ying, the burial of living people was expressly prohibited.

However, the villagers of Baiyi Village dared to let the Meng family be martyred, and they also buried General Bai Yi's widow together.

On this day, the villagers of Baiyi Village stunned Meng Shi, carried him into the coffin of General Bai Yi, and then carried him to the back mountain to prepare for the grave.

It wasn't until noon that the sky was darkening again, and the villagers finally put the coffin into the mound of clothes, and then quickly bulldozed the earth and buried it.

When the last handful of loess was sprinkled in the tomb, the sky became even more gloomy, and large black clouds filled the sky, as if some peerless demon appeared.

"Sun...... It's gone. ”

Some villagers looked up at the sky and suddenly exclaimed.

Hearing this, everyone looked up at the sky, only to see that the sun was submerged in black clouds little by little.

On this day, there was a total solar eclipse that is rare in a century.

A total solar eclipse is a natural phenomenon, and in ancient times it was also called the Tengu Eclipse Day, and the emperor's subjects regarded it as ominous.

"Quack! Wail! Wail! ”

Ten meters away, a crow suddenly screamed on a poplar tree.

This crow is as black as ink, and it is amazing that this crow actually has three eyes. All three eyes were bright and bright in the dark.

The villagers were attracted by this cry, and when they saw the three-eyed crow, they were all frightened.

"Hell!"

In the crowd, I don't know who shouted.

Wow!

This sound was no less than a thunderclap, and the villagers rushed down the mountain, they just wanted to run home quickly, and never come to this ghost place again.

When the villagers descended the mountain, a heavy rain accompanied by rolling thunder came as scheduled.

Not long after the villagers left, a man in black walked out of the woods, glanced at General Bai Yi's grave with complicated eyes, and then disappeared into the heavy rain without looking back.

The rain fell for an hour and did not stop until the end of the day. However, the sky was still overcast, and the villagers were all closed to their houses, and no one dared to go out.

In the evening, a swordsman in a cloak rode a tall black horse to Baiyi Village, breaking the silence of the village.

The swordsman named Mo Li is the great-great-grandson of Mo Zhai, the founder and first giant of the Mo family, and the first swordsman of the Mo family in the world.

Mo Li and General Bai Yi are friends of life and death, and ten days ago, they were invited by Xiang Dun, the first swordsman of Chu State, to go to Yingdu of Chu State to discuss swords.

It's just that before the winner of the sword has been decided, he hears a shocking news.

His good brother, General Bai Yi of the Qin State, died on the battlefield.

There is another unconfirmed news, General Bai Yi's death seems to be strange, and his unborn child will soon suffer misfortune.

Mo Li didn't have time to verify the truth of the news, for three days, he didn't sleep and quickly whipped up, just wanted to hurry to Baiyi Village, Longxi County, Qin State, and wanted to rescue Bai Yi's widow and unborn child.

However, he was still a step too late.

He used his sword to ask the villagers about the whereabouts of the villagers, Meng, but learned that Meng and his unborn child were buried by the villagers in the tomb of General Bai Yi.

He was filled with grief and anger in his heart, and hurriedly rushed to Bai Yi's clothed mound.

After Mo Li ran to Bai Yi's clothed mound, the people in the village didn't care about being afraid, and went up the mountain again under the leadership of Li Zheng (Li Zheng: twenty-five families are one li, the official name of Qin during the Warring States Period, equivalent to the village head).

When Mo Li came to the grave of the West Mountain in Baiyi Village, he saw a new tomb raised high, and the tombstone in front of the tomb was engraved with seven big characters of 'the tomb of the late general Bai Yi' with a small seal, Mo Li wanted to look up to the sky and shout angrily.

Bai Yi's wife, who was pregnant with Liujia and was about to give birth, was buried alive by the villagers, and there was a burning anger in his chest.

Mo Li stood in front of the grave in a daze, remorseful and secretly blaming himself.

If he didn't go to Chu to compete with swords but stayed in Qin, maybe such a tragic thing would not have happened.

After a while, the villagers of Baiyi Village came in a mighty manner.

About 50 villagers, young and old, men and women, looked at the grave they had added this morning, and their expressions were apologetic, frightened, confused, curious, numb, and so on.

The white-haired old man led by came out of the crowd, he looked Mo Li up and down, gave a respectful salute, and asked: "The old man is Bai Yong in Baiyi Village, dare to ask why the knight came to my Bai ancestral tomb?" ”

Mo Li, who had been immersed in grief, heard Li Zheng Bai Yong's words, turned his head suddenly, and glanced at the villagers coldly, his eyes surging. The people who were within his sight couldn't help but feel a chill in their backs and lowered their heads weakly.

Li Zheng Bai Yong was swept away by Mo Li's gaze, his heart trembled, and he was a little frightened.

However, in the end, he is Lizheng, and he also fought and killed enemies when he was young. He glared at Mo Li without showing weakness, and at the same time silently guessed Mo Li's identity.

"What a Lizheng, he actually dares to disregard people's lives, I don't know what the Qin Law is?" Mo Li saw that Li Zheng Bai Yong still didn't have a trace of apology in front of Bai Yi's grave, and couldn't help but sneer and ask.

Hearing the 'Qin Law', Li Zheng Bai Yong was suddenly solemn, and he said righteously: "Bai's pregnancy has been more than one year and six months, this is a ghost fetus, and it should be buried alive to protect the safety of the villagers!" ”

Mo Li naturally knew that Bai Yi's wife Meng Yao was pregnant for one year and six months without giving birth, but a master once predicted that this was a good omen, and the Bai family would be out of the world.

But unexpectedly, he was regarded as a ghost by such bad people. The most chilling thing is that the villagers took advantage of the death of their husband Jun Bai Yi and buried their widows and children alive.

"The Bai family gave birth to a ghost fetus, and he is innocent of death!" After Li Zheng finished speaking, an old woman behind him immediately echoed, with a look of indignation.

"Yes, it's more than innocent!"

"It's more than innocent to die!"

"It's more than innocent to die!"

When the villagers saw someone taking the lead, they couldn't help but raise their hands and shout, everyone seemed to have a deep hatred with the Meng family, and their faces were righteous and awe-inspiring.

Mo Li was angry, Qin Minren has always been fierce, but he didn't expect to be so lawless.

Since the Shang Dynasty changed the law in the era of Xiaogong, the Qin State has governed the country according to the law strictly, and the practice of stealing, robbing, killing people and extorting goods has basically been eliminated, but I can't imagine that there are such evil people.

He looked at the unruly wicked people, held the long sword at his waist with his right hand, and wanted to draw the sword against each other, asking them why they were so careless and ruthless.

Suddenly, he shuddered, and a faint baby cry came into his ears, and he opened his mouth wide in surprise, and almost froze in place, staring intently at the grave.

"Wow... Wow... Wow..."

A crisp and loud baby cry shook the villagers present, and the villagers were stunned in disbelief.

When Mo Li heard the source of the voice clearly, his tall body trembled like chaff, and he was excited.

In the high bulging tomb, the baby's cry continued, hitting everyone's heartstrings.

Mo Li heard the cry clearly, and he was ecstatic, and he rushed to the grave with an arrow, and used his hands to remove the dirt to dig the grave.
