On the morning of the twenty-third day of the lunar month, it was said that it was here, and the difference between the backer and the past was that there was no peaceful cooking smoke wafting around the village in the past, and there was no rooster and dog barking.

The backer is empty. At dawn, the villagers of the backing mountain tun hugged the old and the young, stepped on the kneeless snow out of the backing mountain, they escaped from the backing mountain on the morning of the twenty-third day of the lunar month, away from this black day.

Only the fireworks of the Ma family floated at that time as in the past. Qiu Ju was making the last breakfast for the Ma family, Qiu Ju made oil cakes, salted eggs, and a big pot of porridge.

Marin, who had eaten breakfast, had been standing in his yard, and the two fast guns in his waist were still jet black. From the moment he opened his eyes in the morning, the corners of his mouth began to hang with that cold smile.

Ma Zhanshan has sharpened the pig-killing knife to an extremely sharp point, and the blade can shine on his old face. Ma Zhanshan stopped sharpening his knife, and he carried the knife in his arms. After doing all this, Ma Zhanshan walked towards the cellar mouth with asthma and struggled to remove the two stones that were pressed on the cellar mouth, and then removed the two bundles of grain and grass that were covering the vegetable cellar mouth. After doing all this, Ma Zhanshan looked around blankly, he first saw his son standing in the middle of the courtyard, his son Ma Lin was loading bullets into the gun, and the yellow and shiny bullets were filled into the belly of the gun by Ma Lin "squeak". The sound of loading bullets sounded so refreshing to Ma Zhanshan, and he said in his heart: Boy, when you kill Lu Da, Lao Tzu will also kill people!

Ma Zhanshan looked away from his son Ma Lin, he saw Qiu Ju again, Qiu Ju was sitting on the threshold of the lower room and was wiping a musket, Ma Zhanshan saw this, and thought about it for a while, he didn't know where Qiu Ju's musket came from, and he didn't know what she was doing with the gun. Ma Zhanshan's mind was very messy at that moment. Ma Zhanshan moved his gaze to the same chaos, and he saw Yangmei, who was looking at the snowman that he had built during the day yesterday, and overnight, the snowman had become ice-like and hard. Yangmei wandered on the snowman with a caressing gaze, and finally Ma Zhanshan had no choice but to choose Yangmei. So he shouted: Girl, girl. After Yangmei entered this house, Ma Zhanshan didn't know Yangmei's name, so he could only call Yangmei like that.

Yang Mei heard Ma Zhanshan's shout, and when she was sure that Ma Zhanshan was shouting herself, she even smiled at Ma Zhanshan. She walked towards Ma Zhanshan and walked in front of Ma Zhanshan. At this time, Ma Zhanshan had already sent half of his body into the cellar entrance, only exposing his shoulders and head.

Ma Zhanshan rushed over and said: I'll go in now, and when I go in, you cover the mouth of the cellar with those two bundles of grass and those two stones, and when Lu Da dies, you can help me open it.

Yang Mei felt that Ma Zhanshan's actions were a little incredible, last night she saw Ma Zhanshan sharpening his knife, and she thought that Ma Zhanshan was going to kill Lu Dana. Although Yangmei was puzzled, she still nodded. Ma Zhanshan saw Yang Mei nodding at himself, he was very satisfied, and at the moment when he was about to put his head in the cellar, Ma Zhanshan said again: Girl, what is your name.

Yangmei was stunned for a moment, but still replied: Yangmei.

Ma Zhanshan said: If you are not afraid of a beard, you will sit on a stone.

Yangmei smiled at Ma Zhanshan again, and Ma Zhanshan's eyes disappeared into the cellar with the smile of Yangmei.

Yang Mei first put two bundles of grain and grass on the mouth of the cellar, and with great effort, pressed the two stones on the side. While doing this, Yangmei was so tired that she was out of breath, and finally she really sat on the rock. After sitting down, she found that this place was so good, she could see all the topography of the backer, and she could also see the snow road that stretched out of the backer, and she remembered that she had come here with Marin along this snowy road two days ago.

At some point, the sun was already at its top.

In Yangmei's sight, a team of horses came on the snow road leading to the outside of the village, and she counted them, there were eighteen horses in total, and eighteen people with two guns were sitting on the horse.

Marin, who was standing in the yard, also spotted the horse team, and then he turned around and smiled warmly at Yangmei, who gave him a smile in return. With a wave of his hand, Marin pulled out the twin guns at his waist and walked heavily towards the center of the street.

The fine grass who was peeing in the backyard also saw the horse team, and he didn't have any urine yet, so he ran back, and he shouted as he ran: Mother, mother, the horse is coming, the horse is coming.

The grass shouted excitedly and loudly.

Yangmei walked out with a musket, and she said to the fine grass: Be obedient, don't go out, my mother will come back in a while.

When Qiu Ju walked out of the door of the Ma family's courtyard, she took a serious look at the bayberry sitting on the stone at the entrance of the cellar, and she found that the bayberry was also looking at her.

And the gun rang out, at noon on the twenty-third day of the lunar month.
