Although Ying Zheng had the ability to see things from a thousand miles away, he didn't have the ability to hear things from a thousand miles away. He used the Heavenly Eye Jue to carefully scan the hundreds of houses in Runxiang, even the surrounding pavilions, and still didn't find anything strange at all.
at.
At this time, Ying Zheng found a tailor shop and used his elusive power to sneak into it. He took a set of clothes that fit him and changed into them. He left a piece of gold cake and left quietly. He came to a stream and washed
After taking a bath, I changed into common clothes, standard ordinary people's clothes.
Since all his clothes were damaged, he had no choice but to become a robber. Walking on the grassy path and admiring the green fields around him, Ying Zheng felt a sense of nostalgia in his heart. It reminded him of the scenery of his hometown in the countryside in his previous life. He took a step
I walked slowly towards Runxiang Market, wanting to enjoy the tranquility of this moment.
At this time, the Runxiang market was very lively. A girl in her twenties was being escorted by a dozen strong men. Her hands were tied up with a rough hemp rope and she was wandering around the market. Almost everyone in Runxiang was
People came to watch the excitement and started talking.
At this time, we arrived at a high platform on all sides in the center of the market. A white-haired old man stood on the platform with several rich and mature men in robes.
Facing the noisy discussion below, the white-haired old man stepped forward, made a silencing gesture to the crowd below, and shouted, "Fellow fellow villagers, please be quiet."
"Hello, old man." When the people below saw the old man, they all greeted him in unison with a look of flattery and respect on their faces.
"Fellow fellow villagers, my family is good. Please be patient and listen to what the old man has to say." Although the old man is old, he is very energetic and said.
"Old man, please tell me."
"Yes! Chief, please tell me."
In the crowd, every word you say or what he says exudes respect for the old man.
"Okay, in that case, I won't beat around the bush anymore." A trace of comfort appeared on the face of the village elder, and then his face suddenly turned serious and said, "Our Runxiang, over the years, has always been one of the eight villages in Huaiyin County.
example."
The crowd fell silent and listened quietly to what was going on. They all glanced at the girl in unison, but their eyes revealed deep confusion and questions.
"But our family is unfortunate. Yu Lian, an unfilial daughter in the clan, insults morals during funerals, corrupts customs, and brings shame to our ancestors. She became pregnant before marriage and had an affair with others." The serious expression of the village elder instantly turned a bit ferocious, as if he was the one who was being humiliated.
I am generally very angry.
"What."
"impossible?"
"Have you made a mistake, old man?"
"Patriarch, Yulian has always been benevolent and filial, gentle and virtuous in all directions. How could she do such a thing?"
The village elder's words were like throwing a huge boulder into a calm lake, causing a huge storm, and the place below suddenly felt like a pot was exploding.
"I didn't believe it at first. Yu Lian is a child who is benevolent and filial, but I don't know it. But after many doctors diagnosed her pulse, it is true." The old man sighed and looked at Yu Lian who was tied up below him angrily. He was really heartbroken.
Angry and unwilling to fight.
Everyone fell silent after hearing Dr. Xu diagnose her pulse many times, and their eyes turned to anger and contempt when they looked at Bilian.
"What do you think we should do?" the village elder shouted to everyone. Although his heart was very painful, he could not engage in malpractice for personal gain. As the leader of the clan, he was not allowed to do this. This village elder was deeply loved by his clan members.
He was very dear to his fellow villagers and would not tolerate him doing this, so he had no choice but to cut his flesh and ask questions.
"Burn this bitch."
"Burn her."
"Burn the bastards to death."
"Burn them to death."
The voices of resentment below came one after another. They could not tolerate this kind of woman who was ungrateful and immoral. They could not understand this kind of behavior.
Looking at the excited scene below, the village elder had expected it, but he was still very sad in his heart. He just said quietly on the surface: "Everyone, be quiet."
"Be quiet." The village elder saw that the scene was a little out of control. Some people had already taken out their things and started throwing jade lotuses, and he immediately repeated it.
After a while, everyone calmed down. Only Yulian's weak body huddled together and squatted on the ground. Her head was bleeding and her body was covered with filth.
There was a trace of unbearability in the eyes of the village elder. After all, this was his most beloved granddaughter. But then he thought about it and realized that some things were beyond his control. He looked at Yulian who was squatting on the ground with a bloody head and said: "Jade
Lian, do you know your sin?"
"Grandpa..." Yulian raised her head, but before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by the old man and scolded, "Shut up, don't call me grandpa."
There was a trace of sadness and pain on Yulian's face, she pursed her lips and said, "Yes, Mr. Lian'er, the villager, is guilty."
"Well, since you know your crime, as the elder of the clan, I will ask you on behalf of the villagers. If you tell me who the adulterer is, I can spare your life. Otherwise, the sea of fire will be merciless. Don't blame me for not caring about blood."
When Yulian heard this, she didn't hesitate at all. She shook her head and said firmly, "Lian'er has nothing to say. Please ask the village elders to burn Lian'er to death to show the clan rules."
"You..." The village elder suddenly stared at him with endless hatred and was very angry.
"Why are you doing this? Is it worth it?" When the village elder saw Yulian, tears couldn't help but fall down her delicate and beautiful face. His heart softened and he explained.
"Is it worth it?" Yulian was like a nightmare, murmuring to herself obsessively.
She slowly closed her eyes and did not answer the question, but said in a very firm tone: "Burn me to death! Lian'er has no regrets."
"Okay, if you persist in your stubbornness, then don't blame me for not caring about family ties." The village elder looked like he hated iron, and pointed at Yulian while trembling.
"Come here, tie her to the execution chariot, burn incense to honor her ancestors, and then light a fire to execute her." After saying this, the old man seemed to have exhausted all his strength and took two steps back. He was surrounded by four people behind him who were leaning on their robes.
The strong man holds on.
"No! Dad, let your granddaughter go! Please, let Lian'er go!" At this time, a middle-aged woman ran over, far away, and began to cry and plead for mercy.
The village elder felt irritated. He glanced at a strong man next to him with a very unfriendly look and said in a very unkind tone: "Pull her back, don't embarrass yourself here."
"Dad?" The mature man said with a look of grief on his face, somewhat reluctantly.
"Pa." The old man slapped the middle-aged man in the face, and then cursed angrily, "You traitor, it's all your fault. Your upbringing is not strict. See how I deal with you when I get back. Get out of here too."
The middle-aged man was slapped and scolded, with an aggrieved look on his face. However, he had been under his father's majesty for a long time and did not dare to contradict him. He glanced at Yulian with great reluctance, and then said to the villager;
"Yes, Father."
The middle-aged man left the high platform, walked below, picked up the woman begging for mercy, and dragged her back.
"Lian'er, my Lian'er." The woman was pulled and looked at Yulian with heartbreaking eyes and shouted.
"Father, mother, Lian'er is unfilial." Yulian just couldn't stop her tears from flowing. She looked at her parents' figures fading away. She knelt down and bowed three times. Then she felt as if she had lost her soul and was sluggish.
.
After a while, everyone finished burning incense and worshiping their ancestors.
"Execution." The village elder shouted a little tiredly, then turned around and no longer looked at Yulian who was tied to the wooden stake.
"Stop." A sudden voice came out, and everyone followed the voice.
