"Mother, I'm back. ”

Raising his eyes to look at the familiar courtyard, he pushed open the hidden firewood door, and Li Biao, who was like an arrow, strode into the door.

A hoarse, old voice came from the door of the back room, "Who is it?"

"Mother, it's me. Hearing the voice, Li Biao followed the sound and walked quickly to the door of the back room.

With a "squeak", the door opened, and an old woman appeared in front of her, still dressed in coarse cloth, wearing a blue cloth floral apron, and dusty round cloth shoes on her feet. Dense wrinkles covered her face, the silver threads fluttering in the wind were eye-catching, the old man came to Li Biao tremblingly with a crutch, looked at Li Biao with a pair of eyes that were already cloudy, and asked, "My son Li Biao, is it really you?"

Li Biao was full of tears and said happily: "Mother, I'm back." ”

Looking at her son's vague appearance and listening to the familiar voice, Li's mother was pleasantly surprised: "My son, have you come out?

"Yes, mother, I heard from the cell boss that the newly enthroned emperor gave amnesty to the world, so my son was released. ”

"Good!good!good!" Mother Li said in a loud voice, and she was overjoyed for a while.

When the mother and son were rejoicing, they suddenly heard a crisp gong sound outside: "Bang ------"

Then came a cacophony of voices:

"The criminal Liu Hong, who has stolen his official position for 18 years and killed six lives in a row, is a heinous crime, full of evil, and is now sentenced to Ling Chi, who was executed at noon today, and the neighbors came to watch!"

After the tolerance was finished, there was a crisp gong sound of "bang ------".

"Who is going to be delayed?"

The sound outside was a little noisy, and Li Biao didn't really hear it, so he asked himself.

At this time, a fat middle-aged woman next door stepped forward, looked Li Biao up and down, and said to Li's mother: "Auntie, this is your son." ”

"yes. Mother Li laughed.

The fat woman leaned close to Li's mother's ear and said loudly: "Auntie, you have bad ears, let me tell you about the old man! Just now, the messenger said that there is a prisoner named Liu Hong who has committed a very heinous crime and will be cut by a thousand knives at noon today! Auntie, let's not miss it, this is a scene that we have not encountered for many years, and our neighbors in the neighborhood are clamoring to see the prisoner being chopped up. The woman's eyebrows fluttered, and her excitement overflowed.

"What? Liu Hong?"

Hearing this extremely familiar name, Li Biao was very surprised, and thought: Is there another Liu Hong?

As he spoke, the shouts and gongs of the tolerance were getting closer and closer, and the people on both sides of the road were gathering more and more. Curious, Li Biao followed the sound to the street corner and squeezed into the crowd. Li Biao, who struggled to squeeze into the front row, took a closer look, only to see a row of people and a prisoner cart walking on the street, two jailers in front of him, one struck a gong, one shouted loudly, and there were eight Yin soldiers with waist knives in the back, and in the middle was a prisoner car, and there was a prisoner standing in the prisoner car at this time, and I saw that he was dressed in prison clothes, his hair was scattered, and his whole body exuded a smell of blood, and two thick iron shackles "rattled", which restrained this person's hands and feet......

Familiar back, familiar face, familiar person, this person is really burned to ashes, Li Biao can also know the person------ this person is none other than Liu Hong!

Looking at Liu Hong's miserable appearance at this time, Li Biao's mood was complicated and indescribable.

At this moment, Liu Hong in the prisoner car seemed to sense something, suddenly opened his eyes, and scanned the surrounding crowd with a pair of wolf eyes with few black eyes and many white eyes, ignoring the vicious cursing in the crowd and the many dirty things thrown into the prisoner car, and finally, Liu Hong's pair of poisonous eyes stopped on Li Biao's body. Liu Hong and Li Biao stared at each other for a moment, there was no sadness or joy for a while, there was no dialogue, the sound of "squeak, squeak" sounded, and the prisoner car carrying Liu Hong continued to drive forward.

In a matter of moments, the place of execution had arrived.

The jailer guarding the prisoner cart opened the prisoner cart, and several soldiers escorted Liu Hong to the court.

Outside the court, there are a sea of onlookers, and inside the court, there is a stand several meters high. On the stands, Yin Kaishan was dressed in official uniforms, cold and majestic, sitting on the Taishi chair, next to Yin Wenjiao, who was wearing a light gauze mask, as well as Jiang Liu'er, Li Rong'er, Yin Mansion housekeeper and others.

Yin Kaishan took out an arrow from the quiver on the table and threw it down majestically and indifferently.

Seeing this, the executioner shouted: "Execution!"

Several executioners with big shoulders and round waists untied the shackles on Liu Hong's body, and stripped him off completely in the courtroom, Liu Hong's fat white body was naked, and several executioners covered Liu Hong's whole body with a fishing net, and the fat flesh on Liu Hong's body was immediately exposed from the mesh. Yin Wenjiao and Li Rong'er in the stands were ashamed and scared for a while, and the two of them hurriedly turned their backs.

On the execution ground, an executioner stared at the piece of meat on Liu Hong's body, slapping a thin sharp blade in his hand, at this time, he looked at Liu Hong like a fat sheep to be slaughtered, and the executioner walked towards Liu Hong with a cruel smile while slapping the blade......

A huge fear from the bottom of his heart struck, Liu Hong's head was bruised, and he immediately shouted in a panic: "Big... Spare your life, spare your life------"

At this time, where did Liu Hong dare to be a hero, he pestle his head again and again, and wailed...... "My lord, I have an inside story, and I want to expose my accomplices!"

Yin Kaishan waved his hand, signaled to suspend the execution, and listened to what Liu Hong said.

Seeing that Yin Kaishan waved his hand and suspended the execution, Liu Hong seemed to have found a life-saving straw, and hurriedly kowtowed: "My lord, the person I want to expose is named Li Biao!"

"This Li Biao conspired with me to kill Chen Guangrui and other six masters and servants at the Hongjiang Ferry, and these six people were all killed by Li Biao!"

Yin Kaishan on the high platform stroked the tiger's whiskers, and his eyes gestured to the housekeeper of the Yin Mansion beside him.

The housekeeper of the Yin Mansion understood, stepped down from the high platform, came to Liu Hong and asked sharply, "Where is that Li Biao hiding now?"

Liu Hong looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.

The housekeeper of the Yin Mansion understood, so he stepped forward with his ear, and Liu Hong whispered in his ear: "That Li Biao is here..."

The housekeeper of the Yin Mansion smiled and nodded, "Kick, kick, kick" hurriedly went up to the high platform again, and told Yin Kaishan what Liu Hong said about Li Biao's situation.

Yin Kaishan's face changed, and he immediately ordered: "Quickly go to Li's house to arrest the criminal Li Biao!"

Several soldiers bowed down and took the order.

Yin Kaishan looked at Liu Hong, who had a begging look on his face, sneered "hum", and waved the sleeves of his robe.

"Execution!"

"Yes!"

The executioner in the court was ordered again.

Liu Hong's face turned pale, and he immediately shouted: "Lord Yin, I have exposed my accomplices, why don't you forgive me Liu Hong?!"

Yin Kaishan turned his back and did not respond to Liu Hong's wailing and shouting at all.

Seeing that Yin Kaishan was going to kill himself today, Liu Hong had no hope in his heart, so he scolded: "Yin Kaishan, you old horseman! I, Liu Hong, will die, and I will curse you in the underworld, this old horseman!"

"I, Liu Hong, am still a good man after eighteen years!

At this time, Liu Hong was already crazy, looking up to the sky and laughing wildly.
