New pit preview - Childe, the concubine invites you to carry the archway
That's right, I'm here again. \\(^o^)/~
Cheekily promote the new article "Son, the concubine invites you to carry the archway".
**
Here's a brief introduction:
Zheng Xian'er is a widow, and her husband is a tablet.
There is her archway at the gate of the city, and her lover in the courtyard.
Make some money, raise a baby, and your life is perfect.
Who knows that the sky does not fulfill the wish of the lover——
Torii and lover, choose one of the two.
Questioner, what about your brain?
**
Here's still the synopsis:
For thousands of years, Sangyu County has built a total of 24 archways.
Under the archway, only 23 dry bones have been buried.
Many years later, the storyteller still relishes in the teahouse restaurant:
Yesterday, the loess Longtou sent white bones, and tonight the mandarin ducks lie at the bottom of the red light tent.
Zheng Xian'er took the case: The white bones are your white bones, and the mandarin ducks are my mandarin ducks-
The archway is too heavy, who loves to carry who carries!

Text sample:
The moon is in the middle of the sky.
It should have been a time when everything was silent, but the people in the Lou family ancestral hall were standing in a courtyard.
Under the porch was a large black coffin, the lid open, like a monster with its hideous mouth open, just waiting for someone to sleep in it.
Zheng Xian'er was wrapped in a heavy iron chain and was dragged into the door by someone.
Looking around: father-in-law, mother-in-law, several uncles and concubines, and even concubines and maids in each house and courtyard...... There are more than 100 people up and down the house, and everyone who can catch their breath has come.
Countless disgusted eyes fell on Zheng Xian'er's body, as if she was looking at a pile of stenching garbage.
I don't know who kicked heavily in the back, and Zheng Xian'er staggered and threw herself on the ground.
The initiator let out a sneer, and then raised his foot and stomped on her lower back, preventing her from getting up.
Zheng Xian'er propped her elbows on the ground, stubbornly raised her head, and met those blade-like cold and sharp gazes.
The little man guarding the incense candles in the hall stepped forward, bowed down and said, "Master, wife, the three incense sticks in the incense burner have been burned, and none of them have been broken!" ”
Mrs. Lou looked at the coffin with a somewhat regretful expression: "Since the ancestors have not warned them, there is no grievance." - Do it. ”
Zheng Xian'er's heart was tight, and she was busy struggling to get up, but two servants behind her had already stepped forward to twist her arms, and they were about to throw her into the coffin.
Zheng Xian'er was anxious, and while struggling to lie on the ground, she screamed: "Even if you send me down to the underworld, I still say the same thing - I don't recognize it!" ”
Before her words fell, she received a hot slap on each cheek.
A servant woman sneered loudly: "Don't recognize? You personally go down to the underworld and explain to the third master! You are holding the tablet to worship the church, but now Wen Po says that you are not perfect, do you dare to say that there is no cheating? Could it be that the tablet of the third master came to life and broke your body? ”
Zheng Xian'er was still about to argue, but her body had already fallen into the coffin involuntarily. Twenty or thirty pounds of iron chains smashed on her body, almost crushing her internal organs into cakes.
The old man Lou sat on the Taishi chair, holding the dragon's head crutches with both hands, his back was straight, and his voice was like a bell: "Feng Zu said: 'Women are out of festival and buried alive in the coffin'!" Zheng, you have done something wrong yourself, and you can't blame others! - Seal the coffin! ”
The black coffin lid was carried by three or four small servants, and it was covered mercilessly.
Zheng Xian'er had the heart to resist, but her chest was crushed by the heavy iron chains, and she couldn't even lift the strength to struggle up for a while.
It was already dark in the coffin, but now that the lid was pressed down, the little light that was left was squeezed out, and even the air seemed to become much heavier.
Seeing that the last ray of light disappeared completely, Zheng Xian'er's brain "buzzed", and she only thought of two words in her heart: it's over.
This small space is where she is buried, where she will slowly suffocate to death.
Despair, fear, and the extreme pain of dying before dying, this is the real punishment—a punishment more cruel than death itself!
After a few moments, Zheng Xian'er finally struggled to sit up.
She concentrated all her strength on her arms and left shoulder, pressed against the lid of the coffin, gritted her teeth and pushed it up—
The lid of the coffin was lifted in a thin slit and then never moved again.
Outside, I don't know who is shouting: "Move fast!" One more nail and she won't be able to get out! ”
The stone hammer smashed on the lid of the coffin one by one, shaking people's internal organs and trembling.
Zheng Xian'er didn't have time to think about it, looked at the gap, and quickly stuffed her right hand out.
Let them break this hand outside, and it would be better to bleed more, and see if those who are watching the excitement will not be able to sleep tonight! - Zheng Xian'er thought hatefully.
Sure enough, there was an exclamation outside.
Zheng Xian'er let out a low chuckle, endured the sharp pain like a break, and slowly clenched her right hand into a fist.
The angry voice of the old man Lou sounded outside the coffin: "If you really don't change your dead nature, you have to play tricks at this point!" Que'er, go cut off her hand and feed it to the dogs! ”
Zheng Xian'er's heart jumped.
Que'er? Is that the fifth prince Louque who has been studying abroad? He's back?
I heard that this fifth prince is handsome and talented, noble and proud, and he happened to be born with a good appearance, and he is a well-known young man in the world-this hand is broken under his sword, is it an alternative honor?
Just thinking like this, there was already a steady sound of footsteps outside, presumably the fifth prince came over and cut off her hand.
Zheng Xian'er bit the corner of her lip and closed her eyes stiffly.
The footsteps outside the coffin stopped, and Zheng Xian'er was so nervous that she couldn't even breathe.
The expected severe pain was delayed.
Zheng Xian'er was puzzled, but she heard an unfamiliar voice saying outside: "This matter is not appropriate, please think twice about it!" ”
Through the coffin, the voice sounded a little distant, as if it was from another world.
Separated from life and death, another world.
Zheng Xian'er's heart was relieved, her body leaned weakly against the coffin wall, and her clenched fist hand was also released.
Outside the coffin, the thin old face of the old man Lou was gloomy, as black as the old dry firewood in the firewood room in the backyard: "Que'er, you shouldn't take care of this matter!" ”
Lou Que glanced at the hand on the edge of the coffin, slowly turned around, and walked in front of the old man Lou: "Father, please listen to me - it is easy to kill an unchaste woman, but it is difficult to protect the door of Lou's house." The execution of the third sister-in-law at this time outweighs the loss! ”
Old Man Lou bent three fingers and twisted his beard, but there was no response.
Lou Que straightened his waist and continued unhurriedly: "It will take some time for the completion of the chastity archway, if the third sister-in-law dies at this time, and no one will receive the order to be rewarded, how should the father explain to the imperial court, how to explain to the neighbors?" My father made a lot of enemies in the DPRK and China in the past, and if someone takes advantage of the topic to play and put the hat of 'bullying the king' on our heads, the Lou family's hard work and forbearance in the past 20 years will only be in vain! ”
Old Man Lou pondered for a long time, and his expression gradually turned solemn.
Lou Que saw him hesitating, and added: "What's more, the second elder entered the door to marry the deceased third brother in order to pass on a son in the name of the third sister-in-law to stay behind for the third brother." Now although the third sister-in-law has made a big mistake, the matter has come to this ......"
When Mrs. Lou heard this, she hurriedly interjected: "Que'er's words also make sense. Yin and yang marriage is not a good match, if the Zheng family dies, where can we find a girl who matches the eight characters and is willing to marry? - Poor our Hong'er died young, and there was not even a person behind him to continue the incense......"
"What do you mean?" Old Man Lou was obviously a little shaken.
Lou Que smiled slightly, and Cheng Zhu was in his chest: "The third sister-in-law is a virgin woman in the imperial court to build a chastity archway, how could she do something insulting to the lintel?" Today's incident must be a villain's personal frame, and he wants to use the matter of the third sister-in-law to assassinate my house! For the sake of the third brother's face and the future of the Lou family, the second elder should find out the truth as soon as possible and make decisions for the third sister-in-law! ”
"Aren't the five brothers crazy? The evidence of Zheng's adultery with people is conclusive, how can you tell nonsense with your eyes open! The eldest sister-in-law, Hu Shi, was listening, and she was so angry that she stomped her feet.
Lou Que glanced at her and said lightly: "Sister-in-law, you must know that the tree is falling and scattering, and people like ours are both prosperous and loss-making." ”
Old Man Lou shook his head and said, "Que Er's words also have some truth. ”
The archway of chastity, which has not yet been built, symbolizes the glory of the royal reward. The Lou family, who has been aggrieved for 20 years in the small Sangyu County, may have to rely on the archway to make a comeback in the future.
Killing the owner of the archway at this time is obviously a stupid move to cut yourself off!
Old Man Lou was unwilling to let Zheng Xian'er go like this, but he didn't dare to gamble on the future of the Lou family.
Therefore, after thinking about it for a long time with a black face, the old man finally stood up on crutches: "This is the matter of the inner house, Madame decides!" ”
Mrs. Lou agreed, and was about to start speaking, when Lou Que walked over and grabbed her arm: "Mother, it's late at night." ”
When Zheng Xian'er heard this in the coffin, she only had time to curl the corners of her mouth, and then she felt that her eyes were dark, and she didn't know anything about what was going on.
After days of fear and torture, it was not easy for her to survive until now.
I woke up in my room, and I was groggy and had a high fever for seven or eight days. The girls and mothers-in-law of Luotongju only hated to drag her out and bury her immediately, and no one would take care of her attentively.
Later, when I was barely able to get up, I heard that Mrs. Lou had issued a strict order, ordering her to kneel in the ancestral hall for two hours every day, and not to walk around in the house.
Zheng Xian'er accepted the verdict obediently.
She wakes up early every day to come to the ancestral hall, sprinkle water to sweep the floor, and prune flowers and trees...... What should have been done by the minions, she took it one by one.
After doing these errands, kneel for two more hours, and it will be almost sunset.
Day after day, over and over again, it is really necessary to have more peace and more peace.
One afternoon, the shadow of the sun was faint.
Zheng Xian'er was embroidering flowers in the ancestral hall, and suddenly the light and shadow in front of her dimmed, which frightened her and shivered excitedly, and hurriedly hid the bandage in her hand behind her.
Tilt your head up and meet a pair of eyes that seem to be smiling but not smiling.
Zheng Xian'er's face immediately faded with blood.
Not because of how vicious the face of the person in front of him was, but because—
