When Hong Renquan trotted all the way to the Dharma field with his granddaughter in his arms, he saw his son Hong Xinbao who was pressed to the ground and kneeled on the ground by the executioner.

As soon as he saw his son kneeling in this kind of scene, Hong Ren couldn't help but burst into tears, and when he saw the executioner raising the big knife, he couldn't help shouting: "Keep people under the knife." ”

But when the executioner saw that it was a poor man who shouted for the knife to keep people, he didn't even pay attention to it, and the knife fell down fiercely.

As soon as Hong Xinbao heard his father's shout, he looked up and saw his father running towards his daughter with his daughter, so he cried and said: "Dad, daughter, let's see you again in the next life, you ???????" Before he finished speaking, the executioner's knife fell, and Hong Xinbao's body was in a different place in an instant, and a bright red blood, full of hatred, spurted out of his neck, staining the big knife in the executioner's hand red, and spraying the executioner's face red.

Hong Renquan saw that his son had been beheaded, and when he saw that his son was dead, he was afraid that he would scare his son and daughter-in-law again, so he held back his crying with tears and walked back with his granddaughter in his arms.

But the granddaughter had already seen the scene of her father's tragic death, so she couldn't help crying.

In this way, the grandfather and grandson cried all the way home. Since then, Hongxiunu has lost her parents since she was a child, and followed her grandfather to learn martial arts to make a living, and Hongxiunu embroidered a good embroidery since childhood, although she and her grandfather walked along the village to sell art, but embroidery is famous for a living. And in the show, her grandfather took two orphans as apprentices, the eldest apprentice is called Hong Siba, that is, the surname Hong was born on the eighth day of the first month of April, so he is called Hong Siba. Another apprentice is called Hong Yunxiu, and the name of Hongxiu Nu is only one word different, these two apprentices also lost their parents and relatives when they were young, followed Hongxiunu's grandfather Hong Renquan to learn martial arts, and made a living together along the street, and now they have grown into a young man in his twenties who is ten ** years old.

Originally, the original name of this red show girl was not called red show girl, just because she embroidered well, and often wore a red dress when she was performing with her grandfather along the street, and she was very beautiful, so people called her red embroidery girl, and she was also famous in the township by this name, people from near and far in the four towns and eight villages, all know that there is a red embroidery girl on Hongjiazhuang who is smart, extraordinary in martial arts, and beautiful in life, is the daughter of Miao Cuihua, who is beautiful and handsome for love and would rather die loyal and unyielding, and the daughter of Cao Hong Xinbao who killed Miao Sangui's family for revenge for his wife, and was beheaded in the city of Cao Hong Xinbao, because people are very sympathetic to the tragic experience of Hong Xinbao and Miao Cuihua, they all like to see the red embroidery girl come out to perform, and therefore, the name of the red embroidered girl is more famous in the township.

Later, because embroidery and show have the same sound, and because the red embroidery girl is beautiful and handsome, people call the red embroidery girl the red show girl.

Officers and soldiers have been slaughtering the village since the First World War in Qingzhou, and Hong Xiunu is performing in a village with her grandfather and two junior brothers. Officers and soldiers suddenly surrounded the village, and when they entered the village, they killed people, regardless of men, women, and children, and cut down people when they saw them. The village that was killed for a time cried and screamed, and the flesh and blood flew everywhere, which was unbearable. Hong Renquan, Hong Xiunu and the two apprentices were shocked. But at this time, there were officers and soldiers rushing to kill them, and the four grandfathers, grandsons, masters and apprentices didn't know what to do anymore, they were going to kill on a big scale, and from then on they embarked on the road of opposing the government and the court, or they still had to endure the slaughter of the officers and soldiers, this matter was not a trivial matter in their hearts for a while.

Seeing that they were frightened, Hong Xiunu first understood that the officers and soldiers were slaughtering innocent people in the village, and they did not simply follow them, and that if they didn't do anything else, they would not be able to let them go, and how could they see the corpses of the people who came to see them selling their arts being brutally killed all over the place? ”

Hong Ren looked at the situation in front of him, and knew that he could no longer afford to think about it, and when he saw the officers and soldiers coming into the crowd and running straight towards them, he immediately said loudly: "Kill--, we fought with them today." ”

So, the four masters and apprentices of this grandfather and grandson immediately went to kill the officers and soldiers. Several officers and soldiers saw that the red show girl was beautiful and moving, and she was wearing a red dress that was even more eye-catching, so they rushed over to kill the red show girl together, hoping to capture the red show girl alive, so as to be satisfied. But these officers and soldiers quickly realized that they had miscalculated, that they had not had a good dream at night, and that good things could easily come to them in front of the Red Show Girl?

For a time, the four masters and apprentices of this grandfather and grandson killed the officers and soldiers fiercely for a while, and soon killed a large number of officers and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers were killed by them and fled. So the four of them, the grandson, the master and the apprentice, quickly followed the chase to break the siege of the officers and soldiers, kill out of the village, and take the road.

Along the way, the four of them passed through the villages, and they were all slaughtered by the same thrilling and tragic slaughter of human nature. But the sound of shouting and killing was endless, and the crying was miserable. The four of them, their grandsons, and apprentices, didn't know where they were going, but at this moment, they were followed by some officers and soldiers who were chasing them. Because the four of them only had one horse, they let Hong Renquan ride, and the other three were not fast on foot, so they were chased by the officers and soldiers and were driven into a village.

But when the four of them entered the village, they saw that the situation was even more miserable, and there was a tragic scene of blood like a river, corpses of men, women, and children all over the place, and blood and flesh were flying everywhere on the wall. Seeing this, the four grandfathers, grandsons, masters and apprentices were all shocked and sad and wept. Hong Renquan got off the horse and couldn't help but tear up: "It seems that the officers and soldiers are going to slaughter the village, they are not here for us to sell their arts, they want to kill all the people in every village, from the west to the east, and they want to kill all the people in the eastern part of Shandong." It's hateful, it's sad, it's so hateful, I've never seen such a court, it seems that Tang Sai'er's rebellion is not unreasonable, they are using Tang Sai'er's rebellion to kill the people of Jiaodong. ”

Hong Xiunu looked at a woman who had been killed on the ground, although the woman had been killed, blood was flowing all over the ground, and she was still holding a slain baby in her arms, she couldn't help but say with tears in her eyes: "Grandpa, what should we do? Where will we flee again? The officers and soldiers saw that we had entered the village and did not follow after us, I am afraid that they have now surrounded the village. ”

Before the words stopped, he saw that the officers and soldiers were killing from all directions, and they called Hugh to let the four people go. The four of them, grandson, master and apprentice knew that they had to fight at this time, so Hong Renquan immediately went up to the horse and shouted: "Kill, kill the bloody road." The four of them stepped forward together and killed the officers and soldiers.

During the killing, Hong Renquan shouted: "Kill the man on the horse and take the horse." "Hongxiu Nu Hong Siba and Hong Yunxiu have already gone according to the Ming general on the horse. In an instant, the three Ming generals were killed. The three of them got on their horses together, each wielding their weapons, like a tiger with wings, and as Hong Renquan shouted, "Break through the encirclement and go with me", the four of them went in one direction, killed a bloody road, and patted the horse away.

This time, the officers and soldiers saw that they were brave and unstoppable, and they died three generals in vain, and they did not dare to chase them again.

The four of them rushed out of the village and walked on the main road, anxious and unsure of where to go. If you have traveled four or five miles to the east, and see that there is no shouting and killing around you, Hong Renquan will lead the three people to dismount in a hiding place, and Hong Renquan will cry and say: "It seems that our people are in a catastrophe." ”

Hong Xiunu said with tears in her eyes: "Grandpa, it seems that there is no place for us to go to the east." ”

Hong Renquan said: "We can't let the officers and soldiers kill all the people in Jiaodong like this, we were born in Jiaodong, we have to let Jiaodong leave a little people, now if we go to other villages, a time is too hasty, we don't rush to mobilize the people, and on the other hand, there is no time to prepare, and moreover, they will not believe our words before they are slaughtered in the village, we can only hurry back to our hometown, gather the people from the four towns and eight villages, defend themselves, and negotiate with the officers and soldiers, we don't fight the officers and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers don't come to kill the people in our village." ”

Hong Siba said: "Grandpa, if the four of us return to our hometown, even the villagers are willing to defend ourselves with us, but will the officers and soldiers agree to our request? What if they don't agree to our request? Can we kill them?"

Hongxiu Nu said: "Yes, grandpa, I heard that there are 100,000 officers and soldiers this time, plus no less than 200,000 local officers and soldiers. ”

Hong Renquan gritted his teeth and said: "Alas, how can grandpa not know this? But now the people of Jiaodong are in such a big difficulty, how can we, as the people of Jiaodong, look at it? There is a glimmer of hope that we can save the people of our hometown but do not save them, how can we be at ease in our hearts? ”

Hong Xiunu said sadly: "Grandpa is right, we can save but not save, but there is no hope at all, and we go to save, as grandpa said, there is always a glimmer of hope." Besides, we were born as people from Jiaodong, so where can we run to? Aren't we still going to be chased and killed by officers and soldiers when we get there? If this is the case, how can we patronize ourselves and not try?"

Hong Yunxiu said: "Senior sister is right, we can save the people in our hometown, how can we not save it? If we want to save it too late, if it is too late, how can we go back and mobilize the people in our hometown?"

Hong Siba said: "That's what you all said, that grandpa, I would like to follow the people who go back to save my hometown, please make a decision quickly." ”

At that moment, the eyes of the three of them were focused on Grandpa Hongren's whole body. Hong Renquan said: "At present, we should hurry and not delay, and take more armor from the officers and soldiers to prepare for the vicious battle and rush to kill, and strive to return to the hometown before the officers and soldiers slaughter the village, and the earlier we return to the hometown, the more time we have to launch preparations." ”

So the four of them got on their horses again, preparing to go back to the village to kill the officers and generals and take the armor again. But at this moment, some birds flew in amazement. Hong Renquan said: "It's not good, I'm afraid that there are officers and soldiers coming." So he rushed out first. The red show girl also rushed out after him, and the four of them rushed out to take a look, and saw that there were indeed a large number of officers and soldiers who heard the birdsong and rushed to this side, shouting in unison: "This time Xiu called the four people away, and General Yong and General Meng came." "Shout, let's kill this together.
