Outside Jinyang City, Bingzhou, "Brother Zhang, you rarely pull me out to chop wood, do you need money urgently to chop so much today?" ”。

"Yes, brother, your sister-in-law is about to give birth, I have to work hard, our poor family is no better than a big family, and my daughter-in-law wants to give birth to a son for us, and we have to work hard, otherwise what will our son eat when he is born?" Brother Zhang said hey.

"How do you know it's a son, but if it's a daughter?" The man laughed.

"Girl... Then give birth, the male in the family is the productive force, what is the use of asking for a female baby, just sell it directly to a big family as a maid" Brother Zhang had no pity at all, and said ruthlessly.

Today is the period of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, there are countless excesses and miscellaneous items, military service conscription is not good for the people, eunuchs are dictatorial, traitors are in charge, bandits are rampant, the people's lives are becoming more and more difficult, poor families can't afford to raise girls at all, and they are ruthlessly abandoned directly, and those with a little conscience are sold to large families.

The two are ordinary farmers in Jinyang City, usually help farmers outside the staff, when the days are tight, go up the mountain to chop firewood, and if you are lucky, you can also exchange some rations, these days is because the family is about to add Ding, you need to change more food to make a living, so you pull a brother who helps the farmer up the mountain to chop firewood.

The two of them went down the mountain, and when they saw that the sky was already westward, they hurried to the city, although this area belonged to the direct jurisdiction of Lord Thorn Shi, but there were often bandits haunting.

"Let's hurry up, there won't be an accident after the forest in front," Brother Zhang said and hurried away, and the other followed behind, although both of them were carrying heavy firewood, but they were in the prime of life and worked all day, and it was nothing to be strong and strong.

"Brother Zhang, what do you see ahead? It seems to be a person" The man suddenly pointed to a tree not far in front of him and shouted, Brother Zhang looked at it, there was really a person half leaning on the trunk of the tree, sitting under the tree and tilting his head.

"Let's stop meddling, let's go quickly" The man saw that Brother Zhang wanted to go over to see, and hurriedly grabbed him and said.

"It doesn't matter, you see that he seems to be injured on the shoulder, and he is motionless, let's go over and see the situation" Brother Zhang was naturally bold, smiled and walked under the tree, and the person next to him had no choice but to follow together.

"It seems that he is seriously injured, I don't know if he is still alive" Brother Zhang came to the tree and leaned over to look at the injured person, only to see that his face was covered with blood, and a deep knife on his shoulder did not bleed, obviously the time was not short, although he couldn't see the appearance of this person clearly, but judging from the thick black hair, this person was not very old, wearing a gray cloth coarse shirt and a pair of short boots on the soles of his feet.

"Brother Zhang, I see that most of the people are dead, you see that he can't move, he doesn't even breathe, let's ignore him, let's go quickly" The man said nervously, and even checked the movements around him, for fear that some bandits would suddenly kill him.

Brother Zhang hesitated for a moment, knelt down and pushed the injured person, but there was no movement, nodded and said, "Well, it's okay, then let's go quickly" As he spoke, he turned around and was about to leave when he heard a commotion behind him.

Turning around suddenly, I saw the injured man moving on the ground with one hand, and reluctantly raised his head and said, "This brother, can you give me some water, I really can't move" The injured man said and leaned back on the tree, and let out two breaths.

Brother Zhang took out the bamboo tube, pulled out the stopper, handed it over, and said, "Brother, drink slowly, how did you get hurt?" Did you encounter a robber? As he spoke, he looked into the distance.

The injured person poured a few mouthfuls of water and put down the bamboo tube, "Huh~~ It's really dangerous, it's almost over, this brother, how far is it from Jinyang ahead?" ”。

"It's not far, it's four or five miles out of this forest, it's getting dark, I don't think my brother should rest here, if you can go, let's leave here quickly, this area is not very peaceful" Brother Zhang said with concern.

"Thank you brother Tai for your help, I don't know the names of the two, I will repay you if you have the chance," the injured man reluctantly got up and clenched his fists and said.

"The two of us are ordinary farmers in the city, what is the name, my surname is Zhang, others call me Da Zhangzi, this is a brother of mine, called Guo Er, brother's surname" Brother Zhang smiled and said. At that time, unless people were born noble, most people were arranged to give names, not to mention the table words, only people from large families would be given a name by their elders or a gentleman, and they would have a table word when they became adults.

"My brother's surname is Bai, and I will never forget the grace of saving my life, thank you," the injured man bowed deeply.

"Don't~ Don't say that, we are also passing by, since my brother is fine, then we will go, you should also leave quickly, not far from this forest, there will be patrols of Lord Thorn Shi, it will be much safer" Brother Zhang waved his hand again and again and said.

"Alright, we'll have a meeting later," said the wounded man, clenching his fists.

Brother Zhang nodded and pulled Guo Er to turn around and leave, and walked a short distance forward, Guo Er said, "Brother Zhang, you are just nosy, if a robber comes out just now, we will all die here."

"You can't see death without help, don't say more, let's go quickly," Brother Zhang urged.

At this moment, I suddenly heard someone behind me say, "Walk slowly, I still have something to ask", Brother Zhang just turned around, the knife flashed in his face, and before he could see who it was, he was slashed in the neck, Guo Er was suddenly frightened stupid, blood sprayed all over, and stammered and said, "You~~You, forget~~Enne~~Righteousness... Before he finished speaking, he slashed down with another knife, straight into Guo Er's chest and abdomen.

It was the person surnamed Bai who came, I saw him pull out his knife and look at the two dead corpses that fell to the ground, sighed and said, "Two brothers, I, [Bai Han], am sorry for you, I am really burdened, and I have to do it as a last resort, if there is no chance in this life, then I will repay your great kindness in the next life" After that, he disposed of the corpse a little, and returned to the tree, only to see a baby on the ground, sleeping soundly, Bai Han held the baby in his arms, tightened it with a belt, and flew towards Taiyuan City.

After an hour, a few black shadows came out from a distance, "There are two corpses here" A few dodged to the place where Brother Zhang and the two were hiding, and opened the cover on the body, one of them looked down and touched his neck and said, "Just died, not far away, chase quickly" After that, he rushed out and chased in the direction of Taiyuan, and several people behind him quickly followed.

Late at night, in the city of Jinyang, Bai Han fell in an alley with the baby in his arms and gasped for breath, he stole a few clothes in the village outside the city and pretended to be a farmer to sneak into the city. God is really unfair, he even told us to be born in the Bai family, even if we can't live even a little bit of the most ordinary life, and now it is difficult to save our lives."

Suddenly, a black shadow above his head rushed down, and the person let out a slender scream in the air, this person faced Bai Han with a single knife in his hand and slashed at his head, Bai Han was taken aback, he was too seriously injured, and tried his best to block it with a knife in one hand, "When~", he was split back four or five steps, Bai Han knew that every second counted, the man in black in front of him had already sent a code, and if he didn't leave quickly, he would definitely die once he was surrounded.

Immediately cut off the body shape, held the knife up, rushed to the man in black, and faced three knives, these three knives are the essence of his life's learning, called the three knives of blood, the man in black was immediately blocked, in addition to the hard block, only to dodge upward, the man in black obviously did not want to dodge, Bai Han was already seriously injured, he could not even be a seriously injured person, he would definitely be laughed at, thinking of the big knife in his hand, he took advantage of the situation, and slashed out.

Bai Han's three knives are not as simple as they seem, they are changeable, containing more than a dozen changes, seeing the man in black blocking with a knife, he thought in his heart, "I'm afraid you don't dare to block, it's just right", the three knives instantly turned into a knife, and the side of the body dodged the big knife swept by the man in black, and slashed at the wrist of the man in black with a "click".

"Ah~~" A miserable scream, the man in black covered his wrist and retreated, Bai Han allowed him to escape, his body twisted in front of the man in black, and he sent it forward with a single knife, blood splashed, the head flew up, and the man in black fell to the ground.

Bai Han killed the black-clothed man, and said in his heart, "I used too much force just now, and the lamp has run out" At this moment, the wind sounded in the distance, and the enemy who heard the signal arrived, Bai Han didn't have time to think about it and ran into the darkness with the baby in his arms.

In the blink of an eye, several figures arrived at the place where they had fought just now, and the leader glanced at the dead body that fell to the ground, and scolded in a low voice: "This waste, I said that I tried to delay the time, and I could even tell him to run away, if you dare to make such a mistake and go back to the torture hall."

Several people in black were frightened, and they said yes, and the leader waved his hand and said, "You must not run far, chase me separately, remember what I just said" After that, he disappeared in a flash.

Bai Han ran out of two alleys, feeling that he couldn't run anymore, seriously injured and without rest for a few days and nights, and then he would definitely die on the street, and suddenly found a big mansion not far away, the two stone lions in front of the door were extremely powerful, and there were four guards standing at the door, which didn't look like an ordinary big family.

Bai Han looked at the baby in his arms, ruthlessly, ran out through the shadows, dodged behind the stone lion, avoided the sight of the doorman, took out a jade pendant from his arms and put it on the baby's chest, tore off a piece of clothing, wrote a few words in blood and stuffed it in the baby's arms, his eyes were full of warmth, he picked up the baby and kissed a few mouthfuls and whispered, "Son, my father can't accompany you, if I can't die, I will definitely come to you, if you have a life, you can survive... He choked up and couldn't go on, "Hey. Ask for more blessings" Bai Han put the baby in the gap at the feet of the stone lion, and fled to the dark place in a flash while the doorman was distracted.
