The moon is of great significance to this world, it is like a god, but now it is daytime, and the bright moon is nowhere to be seen.

The autumn wind was bleak, the firecrackers exploded a few times in a daze, and the next person took off the cat's head card, stepped on it twice, and hung the red lantern.

This is the scene at the moment in the mansion of the marquis, a little lively, the opposite door of the mansion, a woman is changing a seven-year-old baby into a new dress, her hands tremble, wearing buttoned doll clothes, from time to time sneakily look at the door a few times, this look, directly stunned for a long time.

After a while, the little baby was a little impatient, so she said with a little annoyance: "Mother, how long will it take for you to put on a dress for me." ”

The mother came back to her senses and complained: "Baby, don't be impatient, I gave birth to you, and now I am raising you alone, what else do you have to worry about!"

His mother's words made him a little ashamed, and he said: "Mother, it's not good to have cold noodles, and you shouldn't complain about cold noodles." ”

The passing wind blew through the window, caressing the red hair of this child called Leng Mian, which also brought a touch of sentimentality.

The mother looked at the Zhanhou Mansion again, and sighed: "Hey, in this life, how can I marry your useless father, look at the Zhanhou Mansion, how to look at it, how to make people envious!"

Seeing his mother's sad appearance with a cold face, there were some doubts in his eyes, and he asked: "Mother, what is my father like, why do you always hurt him like this?"

It's normal for Leng Mian to ask this question, it's not once or twice that his mother complains like this in front of him, it is precisely because of this that Leng Mian is more and more curious, what kind of person is Daddy?

In Leng Mian's memory, there is only a hazy appearance that he vaguely saw when he was a child, but when Leng Mian was three years old, his father died, and since then, he has never seen his father again.

My mother's face was not good at this time, maybe it was because she asked about her father with a cold face, and she responded fiercely: "Your father is a begging for food, and it is not a pity to die!"

In her words, she was full of resentment, and how deep her hatred for her father was, as soon as she heard it, she could feel it deeply.

Leng Mian became silent, his face was stained with sorrow, and there seemed to be a kind of disappointment in his eyes, for his father's disappointment, it was simply disappointment!

"Daddy, he's just a beggar!" Leng Mian finished speaking, and hurriedly lowered his head a few times and sighed.

"That guy, when he was alive, didn't make me feel ashamed, every time he went out to ask for food, I immediately closed the door, for fear that the neighbors would see me. ”

On her mother's face, she was disgusted and disgusted with her father, and she was very remorseful, because she married the wrong person and married a wasted person!

This world is cruel, if a man is incompetent, even the people closest to him will not be able to help but step on you.

The mother kept sighing, she was too miserable, she had no status, no strength, she was tormented by hard days all day long, and now she can only pin her hopes on her children.

She looked at Leng Mian, seemed to regard him as hope, and said to him: "Leng Mian, mother now, but I am all counting on you, you must work hard and work hard, mix up and make a name for yourself, don't learn from your father to be a beggar, shame on people!"

"Mmmm, mother, I'll give you a long face. Leng Mian patted his chest like a man standing up to the sky.

When the mother heard the baby respond to him like this, the sad emotion on her face disappeared, and the pair of hole-like eyes instantly became vivid, and the mother glanced at the door again, couldn't hold back the excitement, and said: "Cold-faced baby, how about you become a war marquis in the future?"

"Wait, what is it?"

The mother proudly introduced: "The war marquis is the prestige of this world, becoming a war marquis, lacking nothing, noble status, and the only way for poor people like us to change their fate." ”

"Well, well, as long as my mother says it, I will do my best. The little baby raised her head and thought about it again, "But, mother, you have to buy me a sugar gourd." ”

When the mother heard the child's words, she smiled happily and immediately said: "Okay, okay, as long as you listen to your mother, the sugar gourd, even if you want to eat thousands of roots, I will buy it for you." ”

"Thank you, mother. The little baby hugged her mother, and the two hugged each other so happily for the first time.

At this time, there was a crisp knock on the door downstairs, and someone shouted outside the door: "Sister Lan Xiang, why haven't you done it yet, you are really my ancestor, hey, come down quickly, the people of the city, you are still dragging here." ”

As soon as the door was opened, the person outside the door complained: "I said Sister Lan, what's wrong with you today, Zhanhou Lu Sifang came back from Huadu, such a big thing, it's not that I didn't tell you in advance, but you are still at home, is it possible that you don't know, to welcome Zhanhou, the people of the whole city want to greet you?"

After hearing this, my mother hurriedly apologized: "Village chief, I'm sorry, something has been delayed, this festive day, give my son a new dress for cold noodles, isn't this a good thing." ”

It turned out that this guy with a white beard was the village chief of this Chengxi Village.

He shook his head and hurriedly urged: "Let's go, let's go, I don't want to make me a village chief because of your mother and son." ”

After saying that, the three of them hurried on the road, and they had to hurry to get there, and they had to arrive in time, and then they would welcome the marquis at the gate of the city, or in other words, when the marquis came, they had to see everyone there waiting for him.

At this time, the wind in the air blew so violently that it made the hearts of passers-by furious.

A quarter of an hour later, when they arrived at the gate of the city, where thousands of families were waiting, the village chiefs caught up and hurriedly found a place to wait.

It didn't take long for the Warlord to appear.

The warlord rode a good horse, wearing a festive red brocade robe and a red official hat, which was firmly put on his head.

Behind the carriage, there were eight men in shackles, they looked like prisoners, their faces were very haggard, their purple lips were not only chapped, but they were also worn out, and their bodies were full of bloody wounds from iron chains.

The carriage dragged such a group of people to the Zhanhou Mansion, and the people who greeted them followed and left.

On the Zhanhou Mansion, a banquet had already been set up, and as soon as the Zhanhou arrived, the banquet began.

There are 20 small dishes and 18 big dishes on a table, fish, pigs, chickens and ducks, all kinds of meat, and after a guest sees it, he can't help but sigh: "The war marquis is the scenery, and the banquet can have such a big pomp!"

At this time, the warlord stood on a high wooden platform and addressed everyone: "Everyone, thank you fellow villagers for coming to welcome me Lu Sifang, today, it is also a celebration, so I also specially brought you an interesting job." ”

After speaking, he waved his hand, and the soldiers escorted those prisoner-looking guys to the stage and pressed them to their knees, and some other soldiers brought some wooden barrels and a black and shiny steel knife, everything was ready, Lu Sifang pointed to those people, and said to everyone in the audience: " These guys are bandits and robbers, they are the scum of this world, they are lowly dogs, they don't deserve to live in the world, of course, this is not the main thing, the main thing is, they are all bounty criminals, and the heads on the necks are valuable, so, today, you will cut off their heads, and then, come to me for money. ”

The people below listened intently.

The corners of the war marquis's mouth rose and shouted, "Now, does anyone come up?"

It was still quiet below, and suddenly, a voice sounded: "I'm coming!"

Everyone moved their eyes to the source of the sound, and the shouting man was a strong man, and he went up and picked up the big knife, and his hand rose and fell, and with a clang, a dead man's head fell into the barrel, and the man took the bucket and went to a war marquis, who looked at it and shouted to the crowd: "This human head is worth a hundred copper Wenbei." ”

When he received the money, he was overjoyed and said, "Go and cut another one." ”

The warlord immediately stopped him and said, "Go down, cut one, and the opportunity is not all left to you." ”

"Next!"

A slightly chubby guy rushed to the stage, and after receiving a big knife, he was about to cut it, but after he picked up the heavy knife, his body involuntarily shook left and right, and the first knife was crooked.

When the crowd below saw it, they burst into laughter, and one guy even laughed at him: "Boss Li, you are a pig killer, can you do it." ”

At this point, the group of people below laughed even more happily.

The pig-killer's face turned red, he put on a look that was more experienced than anyone else, and stammered: "Who, who...... No, compared to you, you're ...... You, I am, have a scripture...... Very experienced, don't ...... Don't, don't believe it, it's such a thing...... I'm good at it, butchers, as long as you have money, you can slaughter anything...... It's all the same. ”

After speaking, he spit on the palm of his hand, and then a handful, pulled out a big knife with both hands, and once he picked it up, he gave the guy a knife, and the head fell to the ground, oh no, it was a bucket, a bucket!

The pig killer twisted the head to get the money, and the marquis looked at the face of the head and shouted: "This head is worth forty copper Wenbei." ”

The pig killer sighed and complained: "What, I don't even have the price of pork, what a waste!"

He stepped down with a grudge, and the people below laughed at him again.

"Next. ”

As soon as the war marquis's words fell, someone said that he was the first to shout: "I'm coming!"

Everyone's eyes were attracted again, and this time it was the cold-faced mother who spoke.

Suddenly, everyone was impressed by her, gave her a thumbs up, and praised: "Good guy, it's really daring." ”

Someone else said, "Woman!" will definitely be deeply loved by Lord Zhanhou. ”

The cold-faced mother walked up to the stage, holding the knife, she was about to cut off her head, but she saw that the person who was going to be cut down, her body couldn't stop shaking, and she didn't dare to look at the face of the female man Tieqing.

My mother's work has always been slippery, she raised the knife in her hand, and went directly to the warlord to receive the money.

"This human head is worth three hundred copper Wenbei. ”

The number of words spoken by the warlord made the eyes of the people at the bottom red, and before the cold-faced mother went down, the crowd flocked to it, for fear that it would not be able to squeeze into the wooden platform.

They scramble to be the first to go, like dogs going crazy for.

The next person to be killed was an unknown old man, his humble appearance, his identity was unknown, and after a knife went down, everything about him disappeared from this world.

A tattoo on his arm that resembles a "snail shell" is the only thing that has anything to do with his identity.

It was the only impression he had left on everyone, just for a moment, and then, his head left his body.

This scene couldn't help but make Leng Mian's heart boil, he clapped his hands and shouted: "Okay!"

One after another their heads were cut off on the stage, but the people below were reveling, and their smiling faces were undoubtedly moved by the excitement of the moment of beheading, although it looked like slaughtering a pig and slaughtering a sheep, but they still had a heartbeat.

At this time, the sound of firecrackers sounded on the side, and the day was lively again.

Suddenly, a human head flew down to the stage, rolling on the ground, and the war marquis saw the human head flying, and exclaimed: "That's the ultimate reward of this field, worth a thousand copper Wenbei!"

When the people in the audience heard this, they began to rush wildly, like beasts competing for food.

Leng Mian looked at people, every moment was recorded in his eyes, and suddenly, a black thing flew in front of the little baby, Leng Mian took a closer look, and found that it was a human head with broken facial features.

This was the first time he saw it, he was so frightened that his body trembled, and he couldn't move, and soon, a black shadow flashed in front of his eyes, it was a child, he grabbed the dead man's head, held it in his arms, and rushed to the stage to get the money.
