The one who was tied to the stake was a woman, elegant and dignified, even though the villagers below shouted to kill her in unison, she still did not change her face.
Ming Xu stared at this strange woman.
The woman's eyes are exquisite and clear amber. When she looked down at the people, her eyes were full of indifference, ridicule and sarcasm, as if telling the ignorance of the villagers.
Who is this man?Ming Xu didn't know.
People who may appear in the depths of Qu Qing's memory are probably very important.
This is Ming Xu's first contact with the spirit. She can feel the vastness and inclusiveness of this world. The breath of Qu Qing is everywhere, wrapping her carefully, guiding her to explore deeply, allowing her to dissect these distant memories. Open a gap and knead wantonly.
Mingxu's gaze was fixed on the woman and she couldn't leave. Seeing the villagers trying to light the fire, she subconsciously wanted to stop her, but she passed in front of them.
Only then did it suddenly occur to me that the spirit-toucher is just a bystander, and she has no entity in this world.
So she jumped onto the stake, and raised her hand to touch the woman's forehead.
Just a flash of light flashed in an instant, and the woman's memory was displayed in front of her eyes. It was a history that was not even recorded in history books.
The six realms were divided before the chaos, and the first to wake up after the chaos was not God, but man.
Because people's lifespan is short, their thoughts mature faster, and they recognize the world faster. They are one of the most perfect species created by Nuwa, and they gather all the good, evil, and hatred in the six realms.
When the gods, demons and ghosts were still ignorant due to the rebirth after chaos, several generations had passed in the human world in only 200 years.
All kinds of signs occasionally left outside the human world make smart people see the existence of some gods, ghosts and ghosts. In people's cognition, those who are stronger than them, can fly over the walls, turn things around, and have high mana can be worshipped. There is no good or bad yet.
In order to be able to talk to the gods in their impressions, some people pray for the help of miracles and apparitions, and created the profession of witches through the astronomy and their own talents during exploration.
Women are witches, men are ghosts, and they are also those who can communicate with the spirits of heaven and earth and descend to gods and ghosts.
In ancient times when there were no countries and only tribes, the climate was harsh, and life was not easy for human beings. On the contrary, the profession of witchcraft developed rapidly at this time.
The witches had a high status at that time. Those who became witches could receive offerings from hundreds of families. They had the best food and clothing. They only needed to pray and burn incense every day. However, if there are repeated failures such as rain divination and so on, the angry villagers will think that they are liars and burn them to ashes.
Because of the powerlessness of the status quo, they can devote themselves to God’s protection, and they can also destroy God’s spokesperson when God can’t respond and disregard their life and death. It’s twisted and terrifying, and everyone is deeply obsessed with it.
Fengsha Village in the west is a large and isolated village.
They occupy the largest and most fertile land in the west, surrounded by only yellow sand and sky, and there is no trace of people other than them, and they have been self-sufficient here for hundreds of years.
The person Mingxu saw being put on the stake was Shang Quan, a witch from Fengsha Village.
At this time, theocracy and human rights developed side by side, either the east wind prevailed over the west wind or the west wind overwhelmed the east wind.
But no one in power would want the divine power to be in her hands, especially Shang Quan did everything perfectly, which convinced the people of Fengsha Village.
In the seventh year of Shangquan's work as a witch, she became pregnant.
Shang Quan calculated through celestial divination that this child is the next witch of Fengsha Village.
The results of this calculation spread out from nowhere, and the villagers in Fengsha Village all hoped that this new witch would bring them well-being.
In this thriving area, the village chief unexpectedly discovered that this is actually a good time, a good time to pull the witch off the altar, so that he can completely control the village.
A witch's pregnancy will reduce her ability. According to the village's custom, the witch needs to retreat for a year.
So with Queqing's acquiescence, the reputation of the child in Shang Quan's belly became more and more famous, and there were even rumors that this child was the reincarnation of a god, and would make everyone's lives completely new.
Shang Quan's most trusted maid was bribed, and none of these news reached Shang Quan's ears. She didn't know that the outside world was bringing the unborn child in her womb to the altar, let alone that the outside world was about to put her unborn child on the altar. The child pulled down hard again.
Que Qing had been waiting until the child and Shang Quan's fame had reached its peak and began to implement his plan.
In the beginning, it was ordinary fires, then animals that died frequently, and then children lost for no reason...
The dense occurrence of these disasters made people panic, and gradually there were rumors that the child in the witch's belly was not the next witch, but a demon, a demon who came to destroy everyone's homeland, and these disasters were caused by her.
Once this rumor spread, it became irresistible, and the villagers who had waited with great anticipation for the birth of the next witch began to frown.
They didn't think about finding out the cause of the disaster. Instead, they started discussing how to get rid of demons in the streets and alleys. In their hearts, all disasters were punished by heaven.
Sitting in her own house, Queqing laughed so hard every day listening to servants reporting the methods of exorcising ghosts that her stomach ached, and then added another fire.
Finally, when Shang Quan was about to give birth, some people began to ask: Since the child in the witch's belly is a monster, why didn't the child be killed?Won't the witch know it's a monster?The witch has not come out to respond for so long, is it a traitor?Is she indifferent to the woes we face?
Such questions are actually enlightening, and the conversation in the streets and alleys has changed from how to exorcise demons to why witches don't destroy demons.
Such conversations quickly swept through the village, and everyone was thinking about one thing: Why didn't the witch kill the child?The witch should kill the child for the safety of the villagers!That is a demon!
It's as simple as that, they set up good and evil for an unborn child in their hearts, and decided a child's life and death.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day when Shang Quan gave birth, and the outside of the witch's house was full of villagers with frozen faces. They stood outside, staring at the door with dark eyes.
The people in the house rushed to deliver the witch, unaware that the windy sandy village, which hardly rained, was blowing wildly all around, thunder and lightning rumbled hiddenly from the dome, and the dark clouds were low and heavy, making people breathless.
The occasional huge thunder pillars that appeared in the clouds seemed to be coming down at any moment. The villagers looked at the sky in fear until the first thunderbolt broke through the sky, and the light of the thunder and lightning reflected everyone's faces.
The midwife yelled from inside the house: "I gave birth! I gave birth!"
But there was another thunderclap from the zenith, this time the lightning struck the towering ancient tree at the entrance of the village, and then it started to rain.
Someone shouted: "This is God's punishment! God's punishment! God is condemning us for giving birth to a demon."
These words fell into everyone's ears like a frying pan was boiling, and everyone chatted noisily.
"As soon as this monster was born, the century-old tree guarding us at the entrance of the village fell down!"
"Only monsters are born with lightning disasters! She must be killed!"
"As long as the witch is willing to give up this child, she is still our witch!"
"This child must not be allowed to survive!"
The witch's loyal servant stood at the door and eavesdropped on the commotion outside. Looking at the money in her hand, she finally chose to help the still weak witch to the door to listen to the sound of the outside world.
Betrayed and persecuted by the people she had guarded for nearly seven years, Shang Quan was on the verge of collapse, her face was pale, she called someone to bring her child, leaving only her sister to drive everyone out.
The witch's family is in retreat with her, and they don't know what happened outside.
But the clever Shang Quan had already figured out what happened in the year when she hadn't been out. Even she herself couldn't imagine that the maid who had always been loyal to her would hide all the outside news from her.
During the time when she called her sister to come, she had already made many divinations in her heart, and each divination was a big ominous one.
If she explained that the lightning and thunder were auspicious omens, no one would believe it. They had already been dazed by the inexplicable disasters that had occurred in the past few months.
The young witch hugged her child, her eyes were full of love, and she said to her sister, "This child is born extraordinary. I will let her take the surname of our mother, Qu, with a single name."
Looking at the crowd outside the window, she said softly, "I hope she can be a clear stream in the future, break the ignorance in this land, and do what I can't do."
"You take her and leave first, it won't be too late to come back after Qing'er grows up."
The younger sister is a loyal believer of her older sister, and she obeys every order of her older sister unconditionally, so she hugged the child, turned around and left through the secret passage of the witch's mansion.
Shang Quan, on the other hand, braced his frail body, put on the complicated dress of a witch, and went to meet the villager who she had devoted herself to protecting with all her heart, but now wanted to kill her child, and never looked back.
The villagers shouting angrily outside the door saw her, those voices gradually disappeared, and they looked at Shang Quan expectantly.
"Everyone", Shang Quan glanced at the villagers indifferently, her voice was not loud but could reach everyone's ears: "I have heard all of your words, but I want to say, my child is not a monster, she It's just an ordinary child, those disasters have nothing to do with her."
There was silence in the air.
Shang Quan did not see a softening of attitude in the eyes of the villagers, nor did the villagers see a trace of compromise in the eyes of Shang Quan.
It shouldn't be like this.
As the witch who guarded them, Shang Quan should sacrifice for them, but now she actually argues for the demon she gave birth to.
Every villager thought so in their hearts.
"The witch has betrayed!" Someone in the crowd said: "Everyone, don't hesitate any longer! Go in and kill that evildoer!"
When these words came out, someone immediately rushed towards the witch's mansion, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.
Shang Quan stood on a high place, the chaos below was like a distorted painting, accompanied by the depressing and gloomy weather, it was only ridiculous.
In the distance, she saw Que Qing who was sitting solemnly behind the crowd watching the fun not far away.
He raised his glass and gave her a victorious smile.
But Qing's image over the years is similar to that of Shang Quan's maid, simple and honest, no one can see that he will be a scheming person.Before that, Shang Quan trusted them almost unconditionally.
But it was these two people who caused Shang Quan to be sent to the army when it was almost too late to react. There was no evidence of man-made disasters. In the past year, Shang Quan was completely unaware of the fact that he was set up for him. A pit that you have to jump into.
He did not discredit Shang Quan, who already had a lofty status in the hearts of the people, but aimed the spearhead at the child, separating Shang Quan from the child. The public regarded the child as a monster and wished to kill him quickly, but they still cherished Shang Quan. There is awe and affection.
Once Shang Quan went against public opinion to protect her child, she could only fall off the altar and feel the anger of the villagers who were betrayed.
But Shang Quan had no choice.
Even if she knew it was a pit, she could only jump into it. How could she give up her child?
Shang Quan and Que Qing looked at each other, but there was a sarcasm in their calm eyes.
But Qing couldn't understand the meaning in Shang Quan's eyes, she just thought that this proud woman had to maintain her proud posture in the end.
The people who rushed into the mansion got nothing, and the group's anger rushed to their foreheads. Some people shouted: "Shang Quan has played tricks on us! If you can't find that evildoer, take her down!"
In response to all calls, Shang Quan was caught by the villagers who swarmed up.
Throughout the whole process, Shang Quan was very calm.
The villagers who did this today will never think of what they have lost.
Lei Dian is fair and strict, and Qu Qing was born with Lei Dian. She is a natural person who can lead the villagers to the governor of prosperity.
If he grows up safely, Fengsha Village can be kept stable for a hundred years, but now...even Shang Quan can't calculate the fate and future of this child.
The villagers searched for Qu Qing for seven days and then put Shang Quan on the stake.
During the seven days, they interrogated Shang Quan several times but failed to find out where Qu Qing was taken. They finally decided to burn the witch who had betrayed everyone and defended evildoers first.
So there was the scene that Ming Xu saw at the beginning.
Almost in an instant, a huge flame spread and engulfed Shang Quan. Ming Xu had no time to react, and could only see Shang Quan's indifferent and calm eyes through the gap in the flames, and below them were the joyful villagers after successfully killing her .
Before Ming Xu could think about it, the scene in front of her suddenly changed, and the rich and distorted village disappeared, and in front of her was a small dilapidated tile-roofed house that was wantonly attacked by howling winds.
Mingxu's heart moved slightly, he passed through the thick stone bricks, and bumped into a pair of eyes, exquisite and translucent like a small black grape, but there was no emotion that anyone should have, dark and deep, elusive .
The owner of the eyes sat upright on the bed with an indifferent expression.
It was the young Qu Qing.
Ming Xu looked at this childish Qu Qing carefully, couldn't help but patted her head, and then pinched her baby-fat face.For some unknown reason, her eyelids kept twitching, as if to foretell her the direction of the next story.And Qu Qing's memories of this period flooded into her mind.
After Shang Quan's younger sister Shang Miao took her out of Fengsha Village, she never walked out of the desert.
The scope of the desert is really too big, how could it be possible for Shang Miao to take the young Qu Qing out with Shang Miao alone.
So she could only find a place with a water source to take root.
In the first three years, Qu Qing was almost completely in a state of chaos, unable to move, speak, laugh, or cry, and he was stunned, not like what a person should be.
Shang Miao, a 20-year-old weak girl, with a child who is waiting to be fed, only she knows how difficult it is, but she still gritted her teeth and persisted.
She loves her sister, and also loves Qu Qing, Shang Quan is dead, and Qu Qing is her only relative in this world.
Quqing's state like this only lasted until she was three years old.
After she was three years old, she seemed to suddenly become sane, with divine light in her eyes, she could walk and move, and occasionally wiped away tears for Shang Miao indifferently when she collapsed.
Qu Qing didn't understand too many human emotions. When she became sane, Shang Miao was the only one in the world, and a large part of her emotional perception came from her.
Shang Miao is really a very gentle woman and a very competent aunt.
She taught Qu Qing how to love the world, she told Qu Qing not to have hatred, she told Qu Qing the story of her mother, she tried her best to make Qu Qing a magnanimous and kind person, even if she knew all this was useless.
Although Qu Qing has sanity, her five senses have not yet been opened. She has no fetters and no nostalgia for this world. As for feelings, it is even more impossible to have.
Her sister Shang Quan once explained that there was a catastrophe in Qu Qing's life, and only after the catastrophe would she know love, hatred, anger, and ignorance in the human world, and possess the emotions that humans have.
Shang Miao doesn't know when the catastrophe will come, but she knows that all emotions explode in an instant, and no one can bear it, so she is trying her best to let Qu Qing accumulate more positive emotions and make her life simpler and simpler .
This was probably the happiest moment in Qu Qing's first half of his life.
A lonely little house, an aunt who loves her and talks a lot.
This kind of life continued until Qu Qing was 12 years old. Qu Qing, who had always been in good health, suddenly fell ill with a persistent high fever. Shang Miao anxiously used cold well water to cool her down, but it did not cool down at all for two days. go down.Over the years, Shang Miao has almost reached a critical point, she collapsed lying on the bed with a headache and crying, Qu Qing, who was almost delirious, raised her hand subconsciously to wipe away her tears when she heard the sound, and then fell down hard because of the weakness of her hands.Shang Miao held her niece's small hand, restrained her crying, but her heart hurt like a needle prick, she choked up and said, "Qing'er, Auntie will take you back, the future is unknown, if I die, you have to work harder go down."
She couldn't get out of the desert, and within a few hundred miles, there was only one sandstorm village with a good doctor.
Even for Qu Qing, she can only go back.
No outsider has ever entered Fengsha Village for hundreds of years, and Shang Miao couldn't even pretend to be an outsider.
But she didn't expect that in just a dozen years, the once prosperous village would become dilapidated like it is today.
The villagers recognized the two on the spot and escorted them to the village chief's residence.
Que Qing, who was once in the prime of his life, has turned gray-haired in just over ten years.
He squinted his eyes at Shang Miao and Qu Qing, and asked Shang Miao: Are you guilty?
Shang Miao didn't know what he was guilty of.
She stared at Queqing calmly, her eyes were as clear as they were more than ten years ago, like a demon mirror, reflecting Queqing's sanctimonious appearance and ugliness.
You fled with this evildoer privately, causing the scourge to land on our Fengsha Village. In just a dozen years, we have been dragged down by you to this end, and you have no apology at all?You and your sister are sinners in our village!
What Queqing said was just and righteous, and the obedient villagers outside the door also agreed and condemned them.
Shang Miao heard it funny.
A person in power who is blinded by profit, and an ignorant and selfish villager.Shang Miao even felt that they deserved what they have become like this.
But she has nothing to do now, Qu Qing's fever has not subsided, and the only doctor here she can turn to for help.
The shoulders that had never been bent before were bent at this moment, Shang Miao lowered her head and admitted her mistake, expressing her willingness to accept all punishments, and only begged the doctor in the village to save Qu Qing's life.
The villagers pointed and showed excitement. Someone came forward with a wooden stick and hit Shang Miao's body one after another. Blood oozes from his thin and thin back. Shang Miao was almost speechless in pain. Hold Qu Qing's little hand tightly, afraid that someone will snatch her away.
"Are you guilty?"
The executioner asked Shang Miao the same sentence over and over again, she swallowed all the blood and tears with her teeth, and answered over and over again with a trembling voice tirelessly, "I know."
It wasn't until the villagers dispersed contentedly, discussing in twos and threes how she punished the sinners in the village, that she was finally let go and thrown to kneel at the gate of the village.
The doctor ordered by Que Qing came late and prescribed two medicines for Qu Qing, within two days Qu Qing gradually recovered, Shang Miao almost cried with joy while hugging her.
She knew that Que Qing would not kill Qu Qing so easily.
But Qing could not give the people in the village a rich life, and even continued to exploit the interests of the villagers for his own benefit. In order not to be overwhelmed by the anger of the villagers, he has been blaming the poverty on the unkilled people for so many years. The disaster brought by Qu Qing.If Qu Qing died, he would lose his shield.
Therefore, Qu Qing could not die, and would become a target for him to quell the anger of the villagers.
Shang Miao knew this clearly.
But she was powerless.
The entire village was full of enemies, and no one healed her wounds during the execution that day. After all these days, kneeling at the entrance of the village, she was already at the end of her strength.
She didn't know whether her choice of bringing Qu Qing back was right or wrong, and now she has no time to worry about right or wrong.
She can only do one last thing for Qu Qing.
Help her out of this twisted and terrifying place.
The sky is big and the earth is big, no matter where you go.
She firmly believed that Qu Qing would be able to get out of the desert she couldn't get out of.
She used to regard her sister's words as Guiquan, and felt that she must follow her sister's wishes, and wait for Qu Qing to come back to change this land and get rid of all ignorance.
But now, having raised Da Quqing almost as her own child, she only hoped that Quqing would leave here and never come back.
What changes?Where are they worthy?
Why do people here need to change, let them continue to rot and stink, it would be nice to fend for themselves in this surrounding area.
How to repay grievances with virtue.
It is enough for her sister and her to be buried here, there is no need for another Qu Qing.
The author has something to say: I originally wanted to finish writing the memories in one go, but the hand speed was too slow and I didn’t finish writing. I will finish writing the memories in the next chapter QAQ
Ming Xu stared at this strange woman.
The woman's eyes are exquisite and clear amber. When she looked down at the people, her eyes were full of indifference, ridicule and sarcasm, as if telling the ignorance of the villagers.
Who is this man?Ming Xu didn't know.

Mingxu's gaze was fixed on the woman and she couldn't leave. Seeing the villagers trying to light the fire, she subconsciously wanted to stop her, but she passed in front of them.
Only then did it suddenly occur to me that the spirit-toucher is just a bystander, and she has no entity in this world.
So she jumped onto the stake, and raised her hand to touch the woman's forehead.

Once Shang Quan went against public opinion to protect her child, she could only fall off the altar and feel the anger of the villagers who were betrayed.
But Shang Quan had no choice.
Even if she knew it was a pit, she could only jump into it. How could she give up her child?
Shang Quan and Que Qing looked at each other, but there was a sarcasm in their calm eyes.
But Qing couldn't understand the meaning in Shang Quan's eyes, she just thought that this proud woman had to maintain her proud posture in the end.
The people who rushed into the mansion got nothing, and the group's anger rushed to their foreheads. Some people shouted: "Shang Quan has played tricks on us! If you can't find that evildoer, take her down!"
In response to all calls, Shang Quan was caught by the villagers who swarmed up.
Throughout the whole process, Shang Quan was very calm.
The villagers who did this today will never think of what they have lost.
Lei Dian is fair and strict, and Qu Qing was born with Lei Dian. She is a natural person who can lead the villagers to the governor of prosperity.
If he grows up safely, Fengsha Village can be kept stable for a hundred years, but now...even Shang Quan can't calculate the fate and future of this child.
The villagers searched for Qu Qing for seven days and then put Shang Quan on the stake.
During the seven days, they interrogated Shang Quan several times but failed to find out where Qu Qing was taken. They finally decided to burn the witch who had betrayed everyone and defended evildoers first.
So there was the scene that Ming Xu saw at the beginning.
Almost in an instant, a huge flame spread and engulfed Shang Quan. Ming Xu had no time to react, and could only see Shang Quan's indifferent and calm eyes through the gap in the flames, and below them were the joyful villagers after successfully killing her .
Before Ming Xu could think about it, the scene in front of her suddenly changed, and the rich and distorted village disappeared, and in front of her was a small dilapidated tile-roofed house that was wantonly attacked by howling winds.
Mingxu's heart moved slightly, he passed through the thick stone bricks, and bumped into a pair of eyes, exquisite and translucent like a small black grape, but there was no emotion that anyone should have, dark and deep, elusive .
The owner of the eyes sat upright on the bed with an indifferent expression.
It was the young Qu Qing.
Ming Xu looked at this childish Qu Qing carefully, couldn't help but patted her head, and then pinched her baby-fat face.For some unknown reason, her eyelids kept twitching, as if to foretell her the direction of the next story.And Qu Qing's memories of this period flooded into her mind.
After Shang Quan's younger sister Shang Miao took her out of Fengsha Village, she never walked out of the desert.
The scope of the desert is really too big, how could it be possible for Shang Miao to take the young Qu Qing out with Shang Miao alone.
So she could only find a place with a water source to take root.
In the first three years, Qu Qing was almost completely in a state of chaos, unable to move, speak, laugh, or cry, and he was stunned, not like what a person should be.
Shang Miao, a 20-year-old weak girl, with a child who is waiting to be fed, only she knows how difficult it is, but she still gritted her teeth and persisted.
She loves her sister, and also loves Qu Qing, Shang Quan is dead, and Qu Qing is her only relative in this world.
Quqing's state like this only lasted until she was three years old.
After she was three years old, she seemed to suddenly become sane, with divine light in her eyes, she could walk and move, and occasionally wiped away tears for Shang Miao indifferently when she collapsed.
Qu Qing didn't understand too many human emotions. When she became sane, Shang Miao was the only one in the world, and a large part of her emotional perception came from her.
Shang Miao is really a very gentle woman and a very competent aunt.
She taught Qu Qing how to love the world, she told Qu Qing not to have hatred, she told Qu Qing the story of her mother, she tried her best to make Qu Qing a magnanimous and kind person, even if she knew all this was useless.
Although Qu Qing has sanity, her five senses have not yet been opened. She has no fetters and no nostalgia for this world. As for feelings, it is even more impossible to have.
Her sister Shang Quan once explained that there was a catastrophe in Qu Qing's life, and only after the catastrophe would she know love, hatred, anger, and ignorance in the human world, and possess the emotions that humans have.
Shang Miao doesn't know when the catastrophe will come, but she knows that all emotions explode in an instant, and no one can bear it, so she is trying her best to let Qu Qing accumulate more positive emotions and make her life simpler and simpler .
This was probably the happiest moment in Qu Qing's first half of his life.
A lonely little house, an aunt who loves her and talks a lot.
This kind of life continued until Qu Qing was 12 years old. Qu Qing, who had always been in good health, suddenly fell ill with a persistent high fever. Shang Miao anxiously used cold well water to cool her down, but it did not cool down at all for two days. go down.Over the years, Shang Miao has almost reached a critical point, she collapsed lying on the bed with a headache and crying, Qu Qing, who was almost delirious, raised her hand subconsciously to wipe away her tears when she heard the sound, and then fell down hard because of the weakness of her hands.Shang Miao held her niece's small hand, restrained her crying, but her heart hurt like a needle prick, she choked up and said, "Qing'er, Auntie will take you back, the future is unknown, if I die, you have to work harder go down."
She couldn't get out of the desert, and within a few hundred miles, there was only one sandstorm village with a good doctor.
Even for Qu Qing, she can only go back.
No outsider has ever entered Fengsha Village for hundreds of years, and Shang Miao couldn't even pretend to be an outsider.
But she didn't expect that in just a dozen years, the once prosperous village would become dilapidated like it is today.
The villagers recognized the two on the spot and escorted them to the village chief's residence.
Que Qing, who was once in the prime of his life, has turned gray-haired in just over ten years.
He squinted his eyes at Shang Miao and Qu Qing, and asked Shang Miao: Are you guilty?
Shang Miao didn't know what he was guilty of.
She stared at Queqing calmly, her eyes were as clear as they were more than ten years ago, like a demon mirror, reflecting Queqing's sanctimonious appearance and ugliness.
You fled with this evildoer privately, causing the scourge to land on our Fengsha Village. In just a dozen years, we have been dragged down by you to this end, and you have no apology at all?You and your sister are sinners in our village!
What Queqing said was just and righteous, and the obedient villagers outside the door also agreed and condemned them.
Shang Miao heard it funny.
A person in power who is blinded by profit, and an ignorant and selfish villager.Shang Miao even felt that they deserved what they have become like this.
But she has nothing to do now, Qu Qing's fever has not subsided, and the only doctor here she can turn to for help.
The shoulders that had never been bent before were bent at this moment, Shang Miao lowered her head and admitted her mistake, expressing her willingness to accept all punishments, and only begged the doctor in the village to save Qu Qing's life.
The villagers pointed and showed excitement. Someone came forward with a wooden stick and hit Shang Miao's body one after another. Blood oozes from his thin and thin back. Shang Miao was almost speechless in pain. Hold Qu Qing's little hand tightly, afraid that someone will snatch her away.
"Are you guilty?"
The executioner asked Shang Miao the same sentence over and over again, she swallowed all the blood and tears with her teeth, and answered over and over again with a trembling voice tirelessly, "I know."
It wasn't until the villagers dispersed contentedly, discussing in twos and threes how she punished the sinners in the village, that she was finally let go and thrown to kneel at the gate of the village.
The doctor ordered by Que Qing came late and prescribed two medicines for Qu Qing, within two days Qu Qing gradually recovered, Shang Miao almost cried with joy while hugging her.
She knew that Que Qing would not kill Qu Qing so easily.
But Qing could not give the people in the village a rich life, and even continued to exploit the interests of the villagers for his own benefit. In order not to be overwhelmed by the anger of the villagers, he has been blaming the poverty on the unkilled people for so many years. The disaster brought by Qu Qing.If Qu Qing died, he would lose his shield.
Therefore, Qu Qing could not die, and would become a target for him to quell the anger of the villagers.
Shang Miao knew this clearly.
But she was powerless.
The entire village was full of enemies, and no one healed her wounds during the execution that day. After all these days, kneeling at the entrance of the village, she was already at the end of her strength.
She didn't know whether her choice of bringing Qu Qing back was right or wrong, and now she has no time to worry about right or wrong.
She can only do one last thing for Qu Qing.
Help her out of this twisted and terrifying place.
The sky is big and the earth is big, no matter where you go.
She firmly believed that Qu Qing would be able to get out of the desert she couldn't get out of.
She used to regard her sister's words as Guiquan, and felt that she must follow her sister's wishes, and wait for Qu Qing to come back to change this land and get rid of all ignorance.
But now, having raised Da Quqing almost as her own child, she only hoped that Quqing would leave here and never come back.
What changes?Where are they worthy?
Why do people here need to change, let them continue to rot and stink, it would be nice to fend for themselves in this surrounding area.
How to repay grievances with virtue.
It is enough for her sister and her to be buried here, there is no need for another Qu Qing.
The author has something to say: I originally wanted to finish writing the memories in one go, but the hand speed was too slow and I didn’t finish writing. I will finish writing the memories in the next chapter QAQ
