When they walked to Shiquan Town, it was already two o'clock in the morning, and the four of them walked around the street before they found a small inn, and Shi Qiang knocked on the door to call the boss.

The proprietress was sleepy at the time, and at this time she was quarreled by Shi Qiang, and her fluffy face showed an impatient look. However, after Shi Qiang handed over Dayang, the proprietress 's eyes lit up, and she diligently took Liu Tianshu and the others to live in two rooms in the backyard.

The small inn is a little renovated to run the extra room at home, and the business is not good at all, so the proprietress wears many hats.

The four of them walked into the room, no matter how simple the conditions were, directly washed their faces and feet, and then went to bed.

This sleep, until nine o'clock in the morning of the next day, a few people got up comfortably, Shi Qiang walked to the yard and came back with a basin of water, after a few people washed their faces, they walked to the front, and saw that there were still a few late guests in the restaurant in front of them eating breakfast.

"Boss, let's have two steamed buns." Seeing that the proprietress was busy behind the counter, Liu Tianshu said with a smile.

"Okay, Xiaocui, get two steamed buns for a few big brothers." The proprietress didn't raise her head, and commanded directly.

In her case, there is a restaurant for guests to eat in the front and an inn for guests to stay in the back, and the proprietress only hires two village women as helpers during the day.

After seeing the buns being delivered, Hao Mengcheng couldn't wait to pick one up and send it directly to his mouth, and even the soup sent by the one named Xiaocui no longer waited.

Liu Tianshu took two bites, and heard someone talking in a low voice at a table next to him.

"Wang Shan, have you heard of it? Old lady Ma has made a decision, and at twelve o'clock at noon today, she will soak Miss Su Su and Jiang Xuezhu in the pig cage. These are two lives, how can you say that this old lady Ma can do it? A Houshan, who was about twenty-three or four, took a bite of the steamed bun in his hand and said hatefully.

"Alas, what do you say Jiang Xuezhu likes is not good, but he likes the third young grandmother of the Ma family, the Ma family is so easy to mess with? Now it's okay, Mrs. Ma has already announced it at the Ma family clan meeting, saying that Miss Su and Jiang Xuezhu hooked up and became adulterous, did not abide by women's morals and customs, and according to the rules of the Ma family's ancestors, the punishment of soaking in the pig cage was implemented. Speaking of this, this descendant named Wang Shan glanced around, lowered his voice and said, "I've heard that the Ma family beat Jiang Xuezhu all night last night. Alas, pity these two miserable people. ”

Wang Shan sighed and shook his head.

"Wang Shan, you say, how can you save Jiang Xuezhu and the others?" The junior who was the first to speak whispered.

"Save? How to save? The eldest young master of the Ma family is the mayor of Shiquan Town, and the Ma family is the largest family in Shiquan Town, unless Sister Tang Qing comes back, unfortunately, Sister Tang Qing doesn't know where to go. Wang Shan said angrily.

Liu Tianshu heard the conversation between the two on the side, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, the Republic of China has been around for many years, how can the power of the clan in Shiquan Town still be so great. Just because of a personal relationship, he wanted to immerse the two in a pig cage, and he didn't take human life seriously.

However, he saw that the two were very cautious when they spoke, Liu Tianshu was inconvenient to ask, and after eating breakfast, he did not let Shi Qiang check out, but took the three of them out of the inn.

Walking on the street, Liu Tianshu saw that Shiquan Town was a big town, the houses in the whole town were scattered, and there were many large families in the middle, and the whole house looked extraordinary.

It's just that along the way, I saw many pedestrians showing curiosity and excitement on their faces, and they all walked towards the Xiaoxin River in the south of the town.

Liu Tianshu glanced at Shi Qiang and the others, and then followed the pedestrians to the river.

Xiaoxin River is a river that flows out of the Taihang Mountain, when it flows through Shiquan Town, the river surface is up to ten meters wide, because the river is tortuous, and the bank is shaded by trees.

At this time, on an empty dam by the river, countless people had already gathered, some of them with excitement and curiosity on their faces, while others showed sympathy and sadness on their faces.

A few people walked into the crowd, because they were wearing newly made clothes, which attracted the attention of many people.

Liu Tianshu took Shi Qiang, Hao Mengcheng and Hao Mengxuan to squeeze to the river, and immediately saw an incense platform on the bank of the river, a big drum erected next to it, and a simple Taishi chair covered with red silk.

At this time, these eight strong men looked straight ahead, with an indescribable murderous aura.

"My son." With a miserable shout, Liu Tianshu turned his head and found that there were two cages made of wooden bars in the place surrounded by people, and a person was held in one cage. Because of the distance, I could only see that one was a man and the other was a woman, all of whom were sitting in the cage with weak energy.

In front of the cage where the man was, an old woman with gray hair was clutching the cage with both hands and crying hoarsely.

A middle-aged woman standing not far from Liu Tianshu suddenly raised her sleeves, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and whispered: "It's really evil, why doesn't God have long eyes." ”

A woman standing next to the middle-aged woman heard her say, hurriedly stretched out her hand and pulled it, and said in a low voice: "You be quiet, don't let the people of the Ma family hear." ”

When the middle-aged woman heard what her companion said, she hurriedly looked around, and when she saw that no one was paying attention, she immediately stopped.

Liu Tianshu saw many people pointing in front of the two cages, thought for a while and quietly walked over. When I got closer, I found that the two people in the cage were naked, and the man sat softly in the cage, looking at his mother who grabbed the cage and cried with blank eyes, the corners of his mouth moved a few times, but he didn't say anything, as for the woman, probably because of shame, she buried her head deadly, hugged her hands in front of her chest, and tried her best to cover her shame.

The people around kept pointing and pointing, some of them said something bad and moral, and some retorted in a low voice on the side, saying that these two people were originally childhood sweethearts, and they didn't guess anything.

However, the voices of these people who were talking around were very low, and they glanced around from time to time.

Liu Tianshu followed the eyes of those people and immediately found the men standing in the distance guarding the two cages.

Hearing that many people in the crowd expressed sympathy and indignation at what happened to the two, Liu Tianshu also understood the general reason for the incident. It turned out that this girl named Susu grew up with Jiang Xuezhu since childhood, and she had a deep relationship with her childhood sweetheart. Three years ago, in order to marry a plain girl, Jiang Xuezhu followed others to run horses to make money. That year, the caravan had to run away, and it was months to come and go.

During his departure from Shiquan Town, Ma Jufan, the second son of the eldest young master of the Ma family, accidentally met Su Su and was moved by Su Su's innocence, so the Ma family invited someone to talk to the matchmaker, and I don't know how, Su Su's family agreed to the Ma family's matchmaker and married Su Su into the Ma family compound.

After Su Su entered the Ma family compound, in less than half a year, Ma Jufan began to dislike Su Su, often did not return home for three days and two days, and as soon as he returned home, he punched and kicked Su Su.

Mrs. Ma knows everything about her baby grandson's bad habits of eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling outside, but because she handed over the family business to Ma ****, the eldest son of the eldest young master of the Ma family, she felt a little indebted to him, so she turned a blind eye to his behavior.

Besides, in a big family as rich and powerful as the Ma family, what does it matter if the younger generations eat some gambling, prostitution, and play, which rich man's son is not spending all day drinking.

A year ago, Ma Jufan was tired of life in Shiquan Town, and shouted to go to Shijiazhuang to take care of the family's business. At first, it was difficult for him to find a doctor for the sake of face, but when it became more and more serious, it was too late to go to the doctor again.

Ma Jufan's condition became more and more serious, and when he was sent back to Shiquan Town, he was already full of fishy smell, and he suffered for less than a month, ending his wandering life in pain.

Jiang Xuezhu came back from outside the mouth, and a thunderbolt fell from the sky, and his beloved girl was married into the Ma family compound by her ruthless parents.

After two months of inner pain, Jiang Xuezhu had to accept the reality, and only hoped that Su Su could live happily in the Ma family compound.

Who knew that the news came out half a year later, but it was Su Su who was abused in the Ma family compound, and washed his face with tears every day, Jiang Xuezhu's heart was like a knife.

Once Su Su returned to his parents' house, he finally couldn't help but go to Su Su, and the two met in the grove in the mountain behind Su Su's house.

Hearing Su Su crying about the pain of the past few years, Jiang Xuezhu hugged Su Su and tears rained down.

It's a pity that Su Su is already a man with a man, he can only try his best to comfort him, but the rest is powerless.

After Ma Jufan's death, Su Su proposed to leave the Ma family, but was categorically rejected by the old lady Ma, saying that since Su Su entered the gate of the Ma family, he was a member of the Ma family, and there was no reason to leave the Ma family's compound again. Even if her man is gone, the Ma family will not be without her to eat.

Jiang Xuezhu knew Su Su's pain, so he took the opportunity of Su Su to return to her parents' house and secretly ran to meet.

One night just three days ago, after Su Su returned to her parents' house, she secretly went to the back mountain to meet Jiang Xuezhu at night, but who knew that this time she was caught by the people sent by the Ma family to follow her.

The two were tied back to the Ma family's compound, and the old lady Ma angrily instructed the family to hang and beat Jiang Xuezhu, and of course did not let Su Su go. In the end, the angry old lady Ma convened the old people in the clan to discuss and decided to immerse the two dog men and women who were immoral and corrupt the Ma family's style into the pig cage and sink into the river.

Liu Tianshu didn't expect that such a tragedy would be staged in this remote Shiquan Town, and compassion couldn't help but rise.

However, he already knew from the words of the onlookers that the Ma family was a big business in Shiquan Town, and the power of feudal clan power had always been very strong, and with the strength of the four of them, it was impossible to challenge the Ma family in the entire Shiquan Town.
