"Go quickly, go quickly."
"It's too late and you won't see it."
"Let's go."
Outside the door, I saw people walking away quickly.
Hearing these words, Zi Yuan, who was reading a book, couldn't sit still. He looked at Uncle Xu who was busy at the side and asked curiously: "Dad, what happened outside?"
Hearing Zi Yuan's words, Chun Xu put down what he was doing, glanced at the people rushing outside, and then looked at Zi Yuan's confused look. Chun Xu, who knew better, took a few steps forward and returned. Said: "Do you want to go and have a look?"
Eleven-year-old Zi Yuan nodded: "I think so."
Days passed by, and now Ziyuan has grown a lot taller and has more flesh on his body.
"Okay, then I'll go with you." After saying that, Chunxu took off his apron and clapped his hands.
Seeing that Uncle Xu agreed to go, Ziyuan put down the book in his hand, glanced at Zheng Chui who was sitting and eating steamed buns, and asked, "Uncle Chui, are you going?"
Seeing that Chunxu and Ziyuan were about to go out, and he happened to be fine, Zheng Zhui stuffed all the buns in his mouth, stood up in a hurry, and followed them wherever they went.
Along the way, I saw a lot of people who liked to watch the excitement. Every few steps I could see people running away in a hurry.
At this time, everything is ready at the execution ground, waiting for the time to arrive.
The sky was dark but it couldn't bear to rain. From time to time there was strong wind blowing around, causing the branches to sway.
On the execution ground, the guillotines were ready one by one.
Magistrate Yu Wenbin was sitting on the official hat chair behind him. He felt a little sleepy wearing an official hat. Perhaps he was tired from waiting for too long.
Standing beside him was Master Liu, whose eyes were looking at the slow-burning incense stick in front of him.
The butcher with a machete on his shoulder stood beside Guitoudun, his two big eyes looking towards the people in the audience, and his ears waiting for the magistrate's order.
The scariest thing is the empty space next to the execution ground.
I saw a wooden stake erected on the field, and a person was tied to the wooden stake. This person was He Hansheng, the son of Mr. He of the He family.
At this time, all the clothes on his body have been taken off, and what awaits him will be a cruel punishment.
The area around the execution ground was already crowded with many people watching.
When these common people saw this scene, they started talking one after another, and the entire execution ground was filled with noisy discussions.
At this moment, Ziyuan was riding on Chunxu's shoulders, looking at the instruments of torture and those who had made mistakes on the stage and on the side.
"Dad, what mistake did they make?" Zi Yuan asked curiously.
After hearing this, Chunxu glanced at Xingtai and said: "One of them violated the sea ban. Did you see the naked person over there?"
Ziyuan nodded: "I saw it."
"He just violated the sea ban. If he makes a mistake, the whole family will lose their lives." Chunxu said.
"Why? Dad. His family didn't make any mistakes." Zi Yuan didn't understand.
Seeing Ziyuan's appearance made Chunxu a little scared. Fortunately, the people around him were talking about it. He couldn't hear Ziyuan's words among the noisy people, but he thought about Ziyuan's unconvinced expression. Chunxu's words made Chunxu feel a little happy.
Seeing that the incense had finished burning, Mr. Liu leaned down and whispered in the ear of Magistrate Yu Wenbin: "Magistrate, when the time comes
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
It’s chen. "
After hearing this, the county magistrate Yu Wenbin opened his eyes and saw that the crowd was already crowded around the execution ground. Seeing that the incense in front of him had indeed burned out, he breathed a sigh of relief, squinted his eyes, and sat upright.
Then, I saw County Magistrate Yu Wenbin reaching for a token from the bamboo tube in front of him, his face instantly becoming more majestic.
"The time has come! Execution!" After a shout, the token was still thrown out.
After hearing the order, the butchers each picked up a bowl of wine placed on the stool nearby, took a sip, and then sprayed the wine in their mouths onto the machete.
Seeing that she was about to leave, her wife Xu Yiling looked at her husband He Hansheng, who was naked and tied to a pillar at the execution ground, and burst into tears.
Mr. He closed his eyes tightly and placed his head motionless on the guillotine.
Then, the butcher swung the machete away and saw a man's head fall to the ground, splattered with blood.
Seeing such a scene, eleven-year-old Zi Yuan closed his eyes in fear and pulled Uncle Xu's clothes: "Dad, don't watch anymore, please let me down."
After hearing this, Chunxu put Ziyuan down and looked at Ziyuan's scared face, but he didn't know what to say.
The most frightening thing was the naked man tied to a pillar beside the execution ground.
At this time, he did not die as happily as his family on the stage. What awaited him would be a more cruel punishment than what was on the stage.
He saw two people standing in front of him, one of them was holding a dagger in his hand. The dagger was not big. It was indeed a bit small.
The other person was holding a book in his hand and was sitting on a chair nearby, reading. Then, the person waved his hand, and the person holding the dagger began to move.
The knife mercilessly cut off He Hansheng, the son of the He family, on the pillar.
I saw pieces of flesh being cut off, dripping with blood, which was scary.
This punishment is Ling Chi. I heard that this punishment is what the people call in the air, being cut to pieces with a thousand cuts. The person who receives this punishment does not die immediately. The number of cuts was determined on the first day, and the number of cuts was decided on the second day, one cut after another, until the person was tortured to death.
The people who couldn't bear to watch dispersed one by one. The only people who stayed on the execution ground were probably those who were brave.
"Dad, let's go back." Zi Yuan said.
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people, Chunxu hesitated when he thought about letting Zi Yuan see the world.
"Uncle Xu, let's go now. Look, how scary it is. I'm getting goosebumps." Zheng Zhui said.
After hearing this, and seeing that Zi Yuan was a little frightened, Chunxu had no choice but to respond: "Okay, then let's go back."
At this moment, some of the people around the execution ground left, and those who stayed were probably the most courageous ones.
However, do you really think there are no timid people among this crowd?
Then you are wrong.
At this time, a man wearing a bamboo hat and raincoat was standing among the crowd. He was still the second young master of the He family, He Yuhong.
However, when he saw his father being executed, tears fell down uncontrollably.
Fortunately, there was a veil in front of the bamboo hat to cover his face, otherwise the second young master He Yuhong might have been recognized.
He wanted to save him but was unable to save him. He wanted to kneel down and kowtow but was afraid of being recognized by the people. No one understood his difficulties.
If how many

Years ago, before the sea ban was implemented, you could safely sell brocade overseas and the government would not care about it. But now, because of the sea ban, your family has lost everything for you. life.
The second young master He Yuhong, who is in his twenties and has not yet married, is very dissatisfied.
But no matter how dissatisfied I feel, what can I do? They are the government and I are the people. How can the people defeat the government?
Seeing his father being cut off from his body with one knife after another, the second young master felt so miserable that he could not speak out, and there was no one to tell him.
Seeing this cruel scene, He Yuhong could no longer bear to watch, turned around, and dispersed among the crowd.
On the way home, eleven-year-old Chen Ziyuan thought about the scene on the execution ground just now, and suddenly his skin became wary: "Dad, that was so cruel just now, who can lose weight like this?"
Seeing Zi Yuan's unscrupulous look, Chun Xu wanted to say a few words in his heart, but was stopped by a firm heart, so he had to keep silent.
Seeing that Chunxu didn't answer Ziyuan's words, the fat man Zheng Zhui on the side said: "Yes, luckily it's not me. Look at my flesh." Zheng Zhui touched his belly and then said: " If I were like this, how unbearable it would be, how long would it take to cut off so much flesh?"
Seeing Zheng Zhui's actions and listening to Zheng Zhui's words, Chunxu laughed loudly: "Yes, I feel miserable."
Eleven-year-old Chen Ziyuan, who was walking in the middle, smiled broadly as he listened to Uncle Xu and Zheng Zhui's words.
After walking a few steps, eleven-year-old Chen Ziyuan saw a scene.
He Qingxue, who is now nine years old, is waving to her under a big tree with a smile on her face.
"Dad, I have something to do, so I won't go back now." As soon as he finished speaking, Zi Yuan happily walked towards the nine-year-old He Qingxue.
"Where are you going?" As soon as Chunxu asked, Ziyuan ran away.
Seeing that Ziyuan didn't respond, Chunxu sighed and said to himself: "Hey, this kid. That's it, let's go back."
As before, He Qingxue came alone every time she wanted to meet Chen Ziyuan. Moreover, she was always alone. After all, how many people from a poor family like He Qingxue would be willing to play with her?
"Where did you go to play just now?" Qingxue asked.
Although this sentence does not mean to blame, it sounds like there is a bit of blame.
"I just went to the execution ground to watch the excitement." Zi Yuan replied.
"Oh." Qingxue responded.
Seeing He Qingxue's sudden loss, Zi Yuan thought she was angry, so he asked, "Are you... angry?"
He Qingxue shook her head: "No."
"Okay, where do you want to go today?" Zi Yuan asked with a smile on his face.
Unexpectedly, He Qingxue did not immediately answer Zi Yuan's words, but complained: "I said hello to you just now, why did you ignore me?"
Hearing this, Zi Yuan was a little confused: "I'm not paying attention to you? Otherwise, why would I stand in front of you?"
Qingxue shook her head: "No, you are still making excuses. It was when you went to the execution ground."
Zi Yuan remembered Qingxue's words: "Then... I probably didn't see it."
"That's all, you are my best friend." After saying this, Qingxue's smile blossomed.
"Go to the place we were at last time. There are fewer people there and it's quiet."
"good."
