Song Emperor Jiangshan

Chapter 7 Digging a Pit

Seeing this scene from the side, Zhang Xian couldn't help shouting loudly: "Wronged! It's wronged through the ages!"

This injustice caused even greater commotion, and the people who came to see him off also shouted: "Injustice!"Wrong! ! !

Immediately, the entire execution ground was full of cries, accompanied by roars of thunder and lightning, as if the heavens were mourning.

Although Xiao Shan was in the front row, he was very far away from the execution ground. Suddenly, something cool splashed on his face. He wondered if Yue Yun's blood had splashed on him. He raised his hand to touch himself. There was a drop of cold water on his face, and he looked up at the sky, only to see snowflakes falling from the sky at some point.

The crowd started to commotion, Xiao Shan inadvertently saw the young man beside him clenched his hands, his complexion was even more gloomy than the sky, his teeth were only clenched together, and the veins on his forehead kept throbbing, obviously he also felt angry and ashamed.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yang Yizhong was afraid that there would be a civil uprising, so he hurriedly ordered Zhang Xian to be beheaded. The two heads rolled on the execution ground at Caishikou, forming a row, and snow fell from the sky. In an instant, the blood was frozen.

After beheading Zhang Xian and Yue Yun, Yang Yizhong sent troops to disperse the people, seeing that they were almost dispersed, he took his guards and hid back in the mansion, fearing that something might happen again.

Xiao Shan stood silently at the edge of the execution ground, and there were still many people who refused to leave and returned after being dispersed.Those crying and cursing voices did not stop, but because of the departure of the officers and soldiers, they became unscrupulous. Many people cursed and shouted excitedly.The snow fell more and more heavily, covering the entire execution ground in white in a short while, and there were still spots of blood in some places, and the atmosphere was indescribably sad.

Under this atmosphere, Xiao Shan was also affected. Although he had never met Yue Fei, let alone said a single word to Yue Yun and Zhang Xian, when he came to the execution ground and saw the generosity and sorrow of the two before leaving, I also felt something in my heart, and I became more confused about my future in this world.

Even if I have great abilities, what will I do when I meet the weak and incompetent Southern Song Dynasty court?A hero like Yue Fei did not end up like this in the end, and a hero like Xin Qiji is also "a hero who can't find Sun Zhongmou's place"!Even if I have some talent, can I compare with these two?If you want to change this situation, what should you do?

While Xiao Shan was thinking silently, he suddenly heard the young man who had been standing beside him murmur in a low voice: "Everyone in the world knows his injustice, but he...how can I change his mind..."

Xiao Shan glanced at the young man, the two of them were very close at this moment, although the young man was wearing half-worn clothes, it could be seen that it was a high-quality brocade robe, and the jade pendant around his waist was emerald green and moist , obviously of extraordinary origin.

When Xiao Shan was looking at the young man carefully, the young man also turned his head and looked at Xiao Shan.

Xiao Shan could see clearly that the boy's eye circles were reddish, his lips were tightly pressed, and there was a trace of distress and confusion in his eyes.

The young man spoke first: "Why haven't you left yet?"

Xiao Shan said: "Why don't you go?"

The young man didn't answer, but just said: "I remember, you said your name is Xiao Shan? What two words?"

Xiao Shan said: "Xiao Feng's Xiao, the mountain of mountains!"

The boy was a little puzzled: "Who is Xiao Feng?"

Knowing that he had made a slip of the tongue, Xiao Shan explained: "He was a great hero in our hometown, and later became the king of the Southern Academy of the Liao Kingdom. Because of the Southern Expedition of the Liao Emperor, he admonished him with death."

The young man said: "I don't know there is such a person, your surname is Xiao, are you from Liao?"

Xiao Shan shook his head quickly: "No, I'm a Han Chinese. What's your name? I saw you sneaked out. Now that you're gone, you don't want to go back. Aren't you afraid that your parents will punish you?"

The young man let out a groan, and said: "My surname... don't worry about it, my nickname is Yuan Yuan. Anyway, it's not easy to come out, so it's okay to go back later."

Xiao Shan said: "Yuanyuan? You don't look round at all!"

The young man was a little annoyed at Xiao Shan's speechless words, but he didn't blame him, he just paused and explained: "It's not square and round, it means beautiful jade, the kind of jade with a big hole in the middle."

Xiao Shan didn't care much about the meaning of his name, he just asked: "Aren't you going back? What are you doing here?"

Yuan Yuan looked Xiao Shan up and down, and said: "Since you are here to see the two generals off, it's okay to tell you. I plan to bury the bodies of the two generals after everyone has dispersed. I really can't bear it." Seeing the corpses of loyal people being abandoned in the downtown area, no one cares."

Xiao Shan looked around, and saw that because the snow was getting heavier and heavier, the people had almost left, and some soldiers were left to clean the execution ground.

Xiao Shan pointed to those sergeants and said, "You want to steal the corpse? I'm afraid those people won't let you steal it so easily! Are you a relative of Yue Fei's family?"

Yuan Yuan shook his head: "No!"

"Then you know Yue Fei?"

Yuan Yuan frowned slightly, and said: "Since you are here to see off the two generals, why are you so disrespectful to Yue Shaobao? Call him by his name!"

Xiao Shan was taken aback for a moment, then he understood.It is very disrespectful to directly call the ancients by their names, so he hurriedly explained: "No, our hometown is used to calling people by their names, and calling the emperor by their first names is not intentional disrespect!"

Yuan Yuan then said: "I only met Yue Shaobao from a distance, and never spoke to him. Let's not talk about this, I'm afraid I can't carry two corpses by myself, would you help me?"

Xiao Shan was quite hesitant, he looked at the sky, it was getting late, if he was helping Zhao Yuan bury the body, he would definitely be back very late.

But then he remembered that Zhang Xianyueyun's body was abandoned in the city after being beheaded in history, and there was no whereabouts. Even Zhang Xianyueyun's tomb in Hangzhou is a clothes tomb.

Going back late will certainly worry his adoptive father and adoptive mother, and will also cause Zhang San who came out with him to be scolded, but compared with helping Zhang Xianyue Yun collect the body, Xiao Shan thinks the latter is more important and meaningful.

After all, the adoptive father and adoptive mother can go home and slowly appease Zhang San, and he will have the opportunity to make up for Zhang San after being scolded, but if Zhang Xianyueyun's body is lost, it will never be found again.

After weighing it in his heart, Xiao Shan agreed to Zhao Yuan: "Okay! I will collect the corpse together with you! It's just that it's too bright at this time, so I'm afraid it's not convenient to steal the corpse, so I'd better find a place to shelter from the snow, and do it later when it gets dark." Easier! Where are you going to bury them?"

Yuan Yuan thought for a while, and said: "Come with me! It's still early at this time, let's dig a hole first, and come back later!"

Xiao Shan said: "If we leave, what should we do if the two corpses are gone? You should dig a hole, and I'll look at the corpses here!"

Yuan Yuan said: "That means that some loyal people took it away, it's a big deal!! Let's go, I've never dug a hole, maybe it will take a long time to get it right, Don't waste time!"

Xiao Shan regretted that Zhang San was not around at this time, Zhang San was tall and powerful, if he was there, he might be able to help.Xiao Shan raised his eyes and looked around, but unfortunately Zhang San was nowhere to be seen around the execution ground, and it was impossible for him to run all over the city to find him.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Xiao Shan and Yuan Yuan left, Zhang San found him on the back.He walked around the execution ground, but he didn't see Xiao Shan's shadow, so he had to look elsewhere, not mentioning it for now.

Half an hour later, Xiao Shan, carrying a small hoe borrowed from a nearby farmer, was sweating like rain under a big tree by the West Lake with a sad face.

He was in the hole with his whole body, and You held up a hoe to work, trying to dig the hole as big and deep as possible.Turning around again, I saw Yuan Yuan with his hands in his sleeves, standing leisurely by the edge of the pit, still commanding in his mouth: "We need to dig deeper here! Dig it into a square shape over there, so that it looks good!"

Xiao Shan got angry and threw the hoe: "You said you were going to dig a hole, why didn't you do it yourself? It's fine if you don't do it, and you still have to command randomly!"

Yuan Yuan looked calm: "I've never done it before, I don't know how to use a hoe, stop talking nonsense, I'm the big brother, you can do whatever you want!!"

Xiao Shan said: "Fart, how old are you? You have to call me big brother!"

Yuan Yuan said: "Look at you, you are only thirteen or fourteen years old. I will be sixteen in April this year. Of course I will be the eldest brother! Don't argue, hurry up and work!"

Xiao Shan jumped up the pit, annoyed that Yuan Yuan only talked and didn't do anything, he stretched out his muddy hand and wiped Yuan Yuan's face, threatening: "Be quiet, don't believe it or not, I'll beat you! What annoys me the most is that a guy who doesn't understand anything is next to me when I'm doing things!"

Yuan Yuan couldn't dodge in time, his face was painted into a big painted face by Xiao Shan, and scolded by Xiao Shan, he glared at Xiao Shan angrily, took out a handkerchief embroidered with white silk embroidered with gold from his bosom, and carefully wiped the mud off his face wipe clean.

Xiao Shan frowned and said: "A big man is like a little girl, so afraid of getting dirty!"

Yuan Yuan had already wiped his face clean, and said: "What do you know?! I'm not afraid of getting dirty, but I'm afraid of getting dirty. If I go back and show my father to see it, I'll be scolded! Dig quickly, it will soon It's getting dark, and you only dug a hole, how can it be enough!?"

Xiao Shan had no choice but to wield the hoe again and continue digging, while Yuan Yuan was still gesticulating, saying that he hadn't dug it level, and then saying that he hadn't cleaned it up.Xiao Shan's threats obviously didn't have any effect, and he couldn't really beat Yuan Yuan to make him quiet, so he could only dig a hole silently.

When Xiao Shan dug both pits by himself, he was already exhausted. Looking at his bloody hands and trembling arms and legs, he silently made up his mind: No matter what he plans to do in the future, he will always be the first The most important thing is to step up exercise and restore your strong body as soon as possible!

At this moment, the snow in the sky was heavy again, and it covered the hole he dug in an instant, and no trace could be seen.Night has fallen!
