There is a basket behind the woman, filled with steamed buns.
Now it was knocked over, and the steamed buns in the basket were immediately scattered on the ground. The woman had been seriously injured, and dark red blood flowed from the wound, dyeing the steamed buns red.
A child ran out of the crowd and rushed to his mother like crazy.
This child is Ning Changsheng, the orphan of the Ning family whom Lu Yu visited in Tianchong Pass.
"Mother." Ning Changsheng called softly.
The woman was still lying stiffly on the ground, motionless.
At this time, Ning Changsheng noticed that his mother's forehead had been knocked on a stone, and a gash had been opened, with blood flowing freely.
Ning Changsheng used trembling hands to test his mother's breath, and suddenly his face turned pale and he froze in place.
His mother died, right in front of him.
Ning Changsheng's father, Ning Shou, was a "Skynet" spy and died in a battle with the Tang army.
When Lu Yu came to Tianchong Pass for the first time, he visited the Ning family and gave the Ning family a large amount of money, which was enough for mother and son to live safely in Tianchong Pass.
But the change came too fast.
After the Qi army entered the city, everything changed. The military merit cards obtained by the Ning family before became a hot potato. The Ning family's home was forcibly requisitioned, and even the remaining money in the family was looted by the Qi army.
In desperation, Ning Changsheng's mother used at least some of the money she had hidden to rent a small house in the slums of Tianchongguan. She made some noodles and sold them every day, barely making ends meet.
But even in such a miserable life, we still ended up like this.
"Mother!" Ning Changsheng was stunned for a moment. The intense grief made him unable to recover for a while.
"He killed someone!" The workers who were watching also stood up and surrounded him.
There are many workers taking a rest on the nearby streets.
When the sun is blazing, dignitaries and dignitaries will look for a short break at this time, but they still need to be outside to withstand the scorching sun.
"What are you going to do? Why don't you get out of here!"
The driver in charge of driving was extremely arrogant and shouted loudly.
As soon as these words came out, they immediately aroused public outrage.
"The carriages of the Tang Dynasty are amazing, but you are the only ones who can bump into people at will!"
"Kill to pay for life, you can't leave today!"
The migrant workers gathered around often saw Ning Changsheng's mother selling steamed buns here on weekdays, and they also knew that their family's life was not easy.
Now that Ning's mother was beaten to death, everyone was filled with indignation, and naturally they couldn't bear it.
The driver glanced at it and sneered: "You are a bunch of despicable people who dare to block our lord's carriage, get out of here!"
After saying that, he raised his whip and made an explosion in the air.
This coachman is also quite capable. There is actually a surge of mana between the swings of the long whip.
"I kill you!"
A childish voice suddenly sounded.
Ning Changsheng suddenly became angry. He jumped onto the carriage nimbly and strangled the driver's neck fiercely.
He was just a young child, and his arms did not have much strength, but the sudden attack from behind shocked the coachman, who was actually unprepared.
"Okay, you little brat, you can die for me."
The coachman was also a ruthless character. He grabbed Ning Changsheng's hair with his backhand, picked him up, and punched him away.
Ning Changsheng vomited blood, and his whole body received a strong impact. He was thrown high and was quickly caught by others.
He was a child, and he was too young. One punch like this was enough to beat him to death.
