The cold winter of the wax moon took away the loneliness of autumn, the heat of summer, and the vitality of spring, leaving only a seemingly holy pure white world.

In the endless complex thoughts, Maple Leaf lost sleep, and he was still thinking about what Wang Wu was going to do and what he was hiding.

But in the early morning, the appearance of several officials broke the former tranquility and indirectly solved all the mysteries.

Wang Wu had killed someone the previous night, and the man had been stabbed in the neck, and the blood stained the walls red.

The deceased person was Wu Lao Er from the next village, he was a rich man, and many people went to him with mountain goods to exchange for silver on weekdays.

But Wu Lao Er is not pulling out a hair, he is very instigated, he is a rich and unkind master, and often deducts the money of the villagers, but it is a human life, and somehow he was wiped by Wang Wu's neck, no, it was discovered by witnesses, and the officials and messengers chased after the door.

Knowing the news, Maple Leaf's face was like ashes, and he finally understood how Wang Wu could say such words, it turned out that he had already made preparations for death.

Xiao Cui is blind and has an extremely keen sense of hearing, but with such a big movement today, he didn't wake up, and when Wang Wu walked out of the house with tears in his eyes, he knelt down towards Maple Leaf without the slightest hesitation.

"Brother, before this official hits the door, I will tell you the cause and effect of the incident. ”

In fact, the cause of the incident is very simple, so simple that Maple Leaf can't understand it.

In order not to let his daughter marry out and be wronged, Wang Wu wanted to prepare a bride price for his daughter, so he borrowed a loan shark from Wu Laoer, but in recent days, the heavy snow has continued, and the rare birds on the mountain are gone, and he can't pay it back, so he came to ask for help.

After all, the poor are poor, and in the eyes of the rich, Wang Wu is not even as good as a pig or a dog.

"I kept kowtowing at that time, hoping that in a few days the weather would be fine, so I went up the mountain to hunt, but they just didn't agree, and said that they would sell Xiaocui to the kiln, and I wiped his neck in a fit of anger. ”

Wang Wulao burst into tears, no matter how much Maple Leaf helped, he kept kneeling on the ground, unwilling to get up.

"It's good that I'm poor, but I haven't done anything wrong, even if I lose my life for my daughter!"

Wang Wu's words made Ye Feng's heart even more melancholy, and at this time, the knock on the door was louder, and there were even signs of hitting the door.

Maple Leaf wanted to stop it, but he had more than enough strength to do it, he was an ordinary poor man like this Wang Wu, even if he had a dream, he was destined to become a bystander without money and strength.

"Why do you want to kill someone, no matter what, it's a human life, can't the dowry be a little thinner?"

Maple Leaf was full of emotion, he didn't know how to persuade him, and he didn't know how Wang Wu could act so impulsively.

Or maybe it was because Maple Leaf didn't think about it from his father's point of view, but he thought that Wang Wu was indeed impulsive.

"That's not good, my daughter is my baby, I can't see her being wronged, after I leave, you must tell her that I went far away and can't come back for a while. This was the last sentence that Wang Wu said to Maple Leaf.

After finishing his words, the official in the county government slammed open the door and went straight to Wang Wu without the slightest hesitation.

The snowflakes in the sky grew larger and larger, turning red in color as if they had been stained with blood, and disappeared to the ground.

Wang Wu is gone, and what awaits him can only be a ruthless trial, accompanied by this red snowflake, he left Wangjia Village forever.

On this day, Maple Leaf was speechless and completely silent, he stood in the courtyard, his mind replaced by sadness and complexity.

Maple Leaf knows that killing pays for life, and Wang Wu will definitely die.

Xiaocui hasn't woken up until now, the main reason is that Wang Wu put some sweat medicine in her meal, he knows that the government will come to the door today, but he doesn't want his daughter to be burdened.

Maple Leaf raised his head and looked at the sky, letting the countless snow flakes fall, he found that he was so vulnerable, there was no way or ability to stop this.

can only wait for Wang Wu to be sentenced by the official, and then throw his body into the market.

"Did something happen to my father? After staying for a while, Xiaocui woke up from her sleep, she seemed to know something, and opened her mouth to ask.

"No, he has something to do, and it will take a long time for him to come back. ”

Even if he didn't agree to Wang Wu, Maple Leaf had to answer like this without hurting Xiao Cui.

If Xiaocui knew that something had happened to her father, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Actually, you don't have to lie to me, I know everything. Xiao Cui stood on one side, although her eyes were blind, they contained spirituality, and she seemed to have a little understanding of the situation.

"I can feel that something is wrong with my father, I can feel that my father is all for me, I just don't understand why good people are not rewarded!"

Xiao Cui's tears trickled down her cheeks and fell to the ground, the heat of her tears melting a little snow.

Hearing this, Maple Leaf was silent again, facing this question, he really didn't know how to answer.

Indeed, there are too many evils in this world, often bad people can live to the end, and those simple and kind good people will not get any good reward, if this is their own arrangement in the dark, then this arrangement is too ruthless!

It is said that the cause of the past life sows the fruit of this life, but does this cause and effect really exist?

Who can confirm the theory of the past and present lives? Obviously, there is no answer.

"As long as you live well, everything will be fine. Maple Leaf muttered softly, carried Xiao Cui into the house, and then walked out of the house.

Wangjia Village is very small, and the county government in the town is not far from it, and the direction of the maple leaf is the county office.

For such a journey, Maple Leaf could not walk an inch, his steps were unusually heavy, and every time he thought that the kind and simple Wang Wu would be executed, his heart was very uncomfortable.

Maple Leaf kept thinking and thinking, but when he arrived at the gate of the county government, he stopped.

Maple Leaf looked at the plaque of the yamen and looked at the bustling crowd around him silently.

"Hey, no one thought that Wang Wu of Wangjia Village committed a murder, but he killed a rich man, the evidence is conclusive, and he will be executed at night. ”

"No way, although he did a good deed for us poor, but he lost his own life, this God is too short-sighted. ”

..................

The chattering continued, and they all fell into the ears of Maple Leaf, and he was still silent, but his eyes were replaced by a thick confusion.

"Brother, you saved my life, and I can only watch you die......"

There was a helpless wry smile on the corner of Maple Leaf's mouth.

However, at this moment, Maple Leaf found that there was an extra black spot in the palm of his hand, although it was only a flash, but he could see it clearly, but it disappeared in the next moment.
