Volume 2 - Growing Up Chapter 60 - What Is Love?
The autumn wind blows the yellow leaves, and the mandarin ducks are difficult to separate since ancient times.
The world is envious of the pairs, how can they pity the lonely?
The autumn wind is blowing, and the yellow leaves are rolling.
In Hedong County, the market that used to be very lively is now very bleak. It turned out that the people were rushing to the execution ground to watch the execution!
On the high platform of the execution ground, flags are listed, bonfires are red, and executioners with faces full of flesh are holding ghost-headed broadswords. Even at noon, the sun is shining, but it can't hide the evil aura emanating from its body, which is terrifying.
Under the high platform, nearly 100 officers and soldiers held silver guns with solemn expressions, and the people who came to watch the execution stood under the stage, maintaining the order of the scene.
The executioner was seated under a canopy, and in front of it stood a sundial.
"My lord, it's only a moment away from noon!" The little official on the side came to the front of the tent and gave up his life.
Hearing this, the prison officer under the high tent reached out and pulled out a long order from the order cylinder, and said sharply: "Order, bring the prisoner in!" ”
"Bang!"
As soon as the token was issued, a cannon rang out, and more than 100 officials in the execution ground shouted: "Bring the criminal!" ”
Soon, several officials were holding their hands and feet and wearing shackles, and people in prison uniforms walked up to the high platform.
The people outside the arena all made an uproar when they saw the prisoners.
"Isn't this the eldest son of the Lu family?"
"yes? How could it be him? ”
"Yo, you haven't heard of it, the strange illness of the Xue family's unconscious son is his poison!"
"What?! He poisoned him, and this person doesn't look like a snake and scorpion! ”
The people below immediately started talking when they saw that the condemned prisoner was Lu Dian.
When Master Lu in the audience saw that his son was wearing a prison uniform and was escorted to the stage, he immediately shouted: "Son! Woooooo My son! ”
"Get on your knees!"
The official escorted Lu Dian to the stage, kicked him in the knee, and kicked him to his knees.
Next, I saw a person holding yellow paper and came to the stage to read: "The country has national laws!" There are family rules! Lu Dian, now Hedong County, united with Wu Liang, the imperial physician of the current dynasty, and wanted to poison and kill the son of the Xue family! There is no king's law! This government specially sentenced Lu Dian's death penalty, and the imperial doctor Wu Liang was escorted back to Beijing for trial! Lu Dian's beheaded at three o'clock in the afternoon! Set an example! ”
"Son! Son! ”
Master Lu in the audience looked at his son on the torture platform, grief-stricken and screamed as much as he could.
The breeze blew, and Lu Dian's temples rose slightly, Lu Dian's eyes looked at the father in the audience, and then his eyes were closed, and two lines of tears were left in his eyes.
"Dad, the child is not filial, and he can only repay your kindness in the next life!"
"Smack!"
"The auspicious time has come! Execute! ”
As the Pengxia supervisor threw out the token of the word "chop", the big knife in the executioner's hand was raised, the cold light flashed, and the head fell to the ground!
"Son!!!"
.............
The morning breeze of late autumn is already revealing a winter chill.
Baifeng Street, which used to be very lively, is surprisingly quiet today.
There was not a single shop or stall open on the street, and the whole street seemed empty. At this moment, the people in the street came out of the street and came to the street with a few people in a cluster.
After a month of Wu Ming's treatment, Guan Shouting's injuries were basically healed, and even the seriously injured old beggar gradually recovered the meridians in his body after taking the girl's pill and woke up from the coma. After more than a month of conditioning, the body has also recovered.
The crowd stayed on Pak Fung Street for more than a month and became acquainted with the neighbors of Pak Fung Street. The people of Baifeng Street, after learning that several people were friends of Feng Peng, treated them warmly.
"Whew! It's a little cold! ”
Everyone came to the stone plaque at the entrance of the street, and a gust of autumn wind hit, blowing Wu Kang's cold hair.
"Humph! Stinky boy, is this feeling cold? Have you been lazy in practicing these days? Li Changfeng on the side said.
"Cut! Do you think anyone is like you, who has eaten all the delicacies on Baifeng Street in a month's time? Eat rough skin and thick meat, not afraid of the cold? Wu Kang turned his head to the side when he heard this, and said mockingly.
"You, you stinky boy, where do I have rough skin and thick meat?" When Li Changfeng heard this, he immediately went crazy.
This old and young bickering caused everyone to laugh.
"Feng Daxia! We've been here for more than a month, and it's been a hassle for you and your neighbors for more than a month! The old beggar bowed to Feng Fei and the others.
"What did you say? It's fun to have friends from afar! Besides, the seniors have also helped the juniors a lot! It's too late for the younger generations to be grateful! Feng Fei hurriedly returned the salute.
"Brother Feng, the martial arts alliance is imminent, and the martial arts heroes in the world will all go to Luoyang to get together, isn't Brother Feng really going to have a look?" Guan Shouting on the side asked.
Feng Fei shook his head, looked at the three words "Baifeng Street" on the stone plaque and said, "No! Now Baifeng Street needs me even more! ”
Everyone has their own ambitions, Guan Shouting heard this, and he couldn't say anything, so he had to give up: "Please take care of Brother Feng!" When we pass by Xinhe in the future, we will definitely come to see you now! ”
"Good! Deal! ”
The two of them held hands together, and the early morning sun shone on the stone plaque.
"Feng Daxia, don't leave it at that! Everyone, please take care! ”
Under the leadership of the old beggar, several people stood under the stone plaque, bent down to the people of Baifeng Street, and bowed.
"Take care!"
Under the leadership of Feng Peng, the people of Baifeng Street also bid farewell to everyone together.
"Heroes, take care! Li Daxia, when you come back, you must come to visit the shop! The small price gives you half the price! ”
In the crowd, the owner of a street seller of roast chicken shouted at Li Changfeng.
"Hahaha! Okay! When the time comes, the old man will invite you to drink! Li Changfeng heard this, turned his head and shouted.
Feng Fei looked at the backs of everyone in the distance, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on Wu Kang.
"Boy, you've got an appetite for me! Your potential hasn't exploded yet! The ideal is also ambitious! Don't let me down! ”
Wu Kang, who left, seemed to be telepathic, waved his hand away from his back and said goodbye to Feng Peng: "Seal a knife!" The rivers and lakes are far away, see you soon! ”
Feng Fei smiled slightly when he heard this, but did not answer.
After everyone walked a long way, Wu Kang teased Zhang Danshen: "My good brother, are you going to pick up your little lover next?" ”
"you!"
When everyone heard this, they all laughed, and Zhang Danshen was red-faced.
.............
Xue Mansion.
Xue Gongzi and the old housekeeper had just returned from their sentences, and Xue Gongzi, who had just recovered from a serious illness, was depressed.
"Childe, don't be unhappy! Lu Dian, this is also deserved! ”
"Uncle Chen, is there really no love in this world?" Xue Gongzi asked the old butler.
"Alas! How can there be no love in the world, but it's a pity ......" The old butler shook his head and said no more.
Xue Gongzi saw that the old housekeeper wanted to speak and stopped, and he was no longer obsessed with the answer, and stepped into the door of the mansion with his feet.
"Xiaoyan?!"
When Xue Gongzi saw the familiar back standing in the hall, his voice almost blurted out.
Hearing this, the girl turned around and said with a smile: "Brother Xue! ”
Xue Gongzi felt guilty when he saw the girl's smile, and hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Why are you here?" ”
"Didn't you always want to see your savior? Now your savior is standing in front of you!"
As soon as Xue Gongzi's words fell, Master Xue's voice came from outside the hall.
"A lifesaver? Daddy, what do you mean ......"
"Yes, the one who cured your illness is Xiaoyan!"
Xue Gongzi looked at the girl in front of him incredulously, and was speechless for a while.
Master Xue was afraid that the old relationship between the two would be revived, so he hurriedly took the hand of the servant behind him, and said with a plate full of silver: "Xiaoyan, you saved the life of this stinky boy, this is the old man's careful little heart, not respect!"
The girl looked at the plate full of silver, and was not moved, but looked at Xue Gongzi and said, "The little girl came here today, just to say goodbye to Brother Xue!"
Please also ask Master Xue to give these silver to poor families! Brother Xue said goodbye, please take care!"
"Farewell?!Xiaoyan ......"
"Stop!"
The girl said this, and went straight out of the hall. When Xue Gongzi heard this, he was about to chase out, but he heard a scolding from behind him, so he had to stop.
"Daddy......"
"Don't forget, you and Miss Liu have already made a marriage contract! Come back!"
Master Xue's words made Xue Gongzi crush Xue Gongzi's last bit of courage, and he had to return to the hall.
Seeing this, the old housekeeper on the side came to his son-in-law and whispered, "Childe, is this the answer you want?" ”
When Xue Gongzi heard this, he was shocked, but in the end he could only bow his head in resignation.
The girl who left naturally heard the conversation between the father and son of the Xue family.
The girl turned to look at the closed gate of the Xue Mansion, feeling extremely lost.
"Unexpectedly, childhood sweethearts, ten years of acquaintance. can't match a word from your father! Even if you can chase half a step, I'll stay, but it's a pity ......"
"Hey! How unhappy! ”
Just when the girl lost her mind, she heard a familiar voice behind her, which woke up the girl who had lost her mind.
The girl turned her head to see a familiar boy standing behind her. The boy was dressed in cloth and had a smile on his face.
"Brother Zhang!"
The girl with tears in her eyes couldn't hold back any longer, and stumbled towards the boy, and the two hugged each other.
The young man's body stiffened, and he reached out to hug the girl. Leaning down, her lips moving slightly in the girl's ear.
The girl couldn't hold back any longer, and tears flowed from her eyes.
"Yo Yo Yo, what a pair of talented and beautiful women!"
When the two were emotional, the voice of a certain underbeat sounded inappropriately.
The girl's face was red when she heard the sound, and she quickly broke free from Zhang Danshen's embrace, and then wiped away her tears with her sleeve. And Zhang Danshen looked at Wu Kang with an angry face.
"Hey, hey! Last time, you made me full of sass, now we're even! Okay, okay, don't be angry! It's almost time! Let's go!
By the way, Miss Xiao, Yang Ye asked me to give you this letter! He also said that this letter can only be read after you get out of Hedong County, girl! And it's just you!" Wu Kang said, took out a letter from his arms, and handed it to the girl.
The girl was about to open it, but was stopped by Zhang Danshen and said: "Xiaoyan, this letter was given by Yang Ye, I'm afraid it's not so simple." Since he asked you to go out of the county to look at it, then wait until you get out of the county and open it again! ”
The girl nodded and agreed.
