At the entrance of the vegetable market in the east, people circled three circles inside and three circles outside.

Yan Delin was tied to a stake by the servants and prepared to be punished.

The executioner was now sharpening an iron thorn, so earnestly that there was not a hint of ambiguity.

The iron spike had not been used in many years, and it was covered in rust.

While polishing the iron thorns, the executioner complained in his heart: "Okay, you Yan Delin, you have died so many things!" Lao Tzu's knife is sharpened every day, if you don't fight to cut off your head, you have to have a good time, you have to do that rotten thing, and Lao Tzu has to polish this broken iron thorn!

Yan Delin knew that he was in a catastrophe, and he no longer struggled to cry out for injustice, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The supervisor Qu Nanyi sat in the teahouse and ate tea, waiting for the hour.

Li Dazhuang ran up to the teahouse panting breathlessly and said, "My lord, Mi Jiu is here, and he said that he wants to see his lord." His subordinates drove him away as the lord ordered. Before leaving, he said that the mandrill had personally admitted that she had killed Fenghua, and asked if the adults could release Yan Delin? ”

Qu Nanyi sneered: "Let Yan Delin go? Heh, even if Fenghua was not killed by Yan Delin himself, the fetus in Fenghua's womb was kicked by him. Isn't this a human life? Besides, how do you know that Mi Jiu is not lying? Since Yan Delin personally confessed to killing someone, he can't be allowed to live! That Yan Delin treated Mi Jiu like this, but Mi Jiu repaid his grievances with virtue. This kind of person is the most despised by the official. If everyone in the world repays grievances with virtue, then how can they repay virtue? There is no distinction between right and wrong, it is really a ninth-rate! ”

Li Dazhuang swallowed a mouthful of saliva, wiped the sweat from his head, and said cautiously: "Can ...... But my lord, killing the fetus is not a life, so what Yan Delin committed is at most a twenty board. Moreover, if she catches the mandrill one day, she admits that she killed Fenghua, and this case ......"

Qu Nanyi raised his eyebrows and glanced at Li Dazhuang, and said: "Since it is a mandrill, it will naturally harm people, so why mention the Fenghua case again?" Stretched out his hand and patted Li Dazhuang on the shoulder, "This official also asks you, if you kill a person, but this person does not die because of his fate, shouldn't the murderer die?" Can the life of a murderer not be punished because the victim did not die?! It is very fair to repay debts and pay back people's lives. ”

Li Dazhuang wanted to say something more, but found that he didn't know what to say. The county magistrate seems to be reasonable. Li Dazhuang nodded and once again recognized Qu Nanyi's reasoning.

Qu Nanyi drank the cup of tea, stood up, shook his official robe, went down to the second floor, and went straight to the entrance of the vegetable market in the congratulations of the owner of the teahouse, and sat on the stool prepared for him.

After the county Cheng read out Yan Delin's guilt, Qu Nanyi signaled the executioner to carry out the execution.

Mi Jiu was dressed in white, washed all the lead, held a bowl of wine, walked out of the crowd, and said to Qu Nanyi: "My lord, please allow Mi Jiu to send Yan Delin the last cup of guillotine wine." ”

Qu Nan nodded, yes.

Mi Jiu slowly stepped onto the stage and stood in front of Yan Delin.

Yan Delin slowly raised his lowered head and looked at Qi Jiu.

Mi Jiu looked at Yan Delin's eyes, and said softly: "When Mi Jiu was young, his family was in trouble, starvation everywhere, and everyone changed their children to eat, it was the old man who exchanged half a bag of rations for Mi Jiu's life, and since then, the old man is Mi Jiu's father."

"Four years ago, the old man found you, and Mi Jiu was very happy in his heart, and he was very happy that the old man could have someone to send him to his end, and that he could have a brother who could take care of the family.

"Three years ago, before the old man left, he asked Mijiu to take care of his brother, so that the incense of the Yan family could continue.

"My brother is a good gambler, and he has given Mi Jiu away to pay off his debts again and again.

"Mi Jiu thinks every time, just help my brother for the last time, and when my brother has it, Mi Jiu will ...... Kill you, and clean yourself up. But my sister-in-law has never been pregnant, and I can't explain to the old man, so I drag this dirty body to live in the world.

"This time, Mi Jiu can't help his brother. Mi Jiu was a little happy in his heart. Finally, there is no need to carry anything. After my brother went underground, he told the old man that he only made a heavy promise to the old man in his life, but he didn't do it, so he naturally had to bear the heavy curse of 'not dying well'. From now on, he will never promise to anyone, and he will not fail anyone.

"From now on, the surname of Yu Jiu is Yan, and he deserves his name, and he inherited the incense of the Yan family."

Mi Jiu took a step back, knelt in front of Yan Delin, touched the ground with his head, and called: "Brother, let's go." He stood up and fed the wine into Yandelin's mouth.

Yan Delin's tears flowed out of the corners of his eyes, and he was suddenly afraid that Qi Jiu would see his tears and see his embarrassment, so he hurriedly bit the edge of the pottery bowl and buckled the whole bowl of wine to his face.

He always remembered that when he was first led back to the Yan family opera troupe by the old man, the woman who had just come off the stage and was wearing a bright red Luo skirt smiled happily at him.

That laugh made his soul fly out of the sky, shocking the heavens.

Then, he knew that she was him, and the pain in his heart was unbearable.

Later, he began to hate him, scold him, and insult him.

Later, he gave him away to pay off his debts.

And finally? In the end, evil was rewarded, and he died.

Open your mouth and let the bowl shatter under your feet.

Yan Delin shouted in a rough voice: "Get out! ”

Mi Jiu lowered his head and retreated into the crowd.

As soon as Qu Nan threw down the token, the executioner neatly rolled up his sleeves, raised the long thorn, and stabbed it into Yan Delin's heart fiercely!

Hu Yan combed a ponytail and wore a coarse cloth short beat, and like all the people who watched the excitement, his mouth let out a sigh.

She was standing relatively far ahead, and Yan Delin actually saw her!

Yan Delin's eyes widened, his expression became very distorted, and his fingers and mouth trembled at the same time, as if he was going to do something and say something.

Hu Yan slowly hooked the corners of his lips and said with his lips: "At the request of Fenghua, watch you execute." ”

Yan Delin has been stupid and reckless all his life, but at this moment, he actually understands it. His eyes flickered, slowly dissipating their brilliance. His hand thumped down, slowly losing strength. Life has come to an end for him.

He felt that he was worthy of Fenghua. At least, he paid him with his own life.

Mijiu, Mijiu......

If there is an afterlife, you will give birth to a girl, okay?

Your brother Yan will go to you to atone for your sins.

The executioner pulled out the long thorn very simply, and Yan Delin's head hung forward, and he could no longer see the sun tomorrow.

The crowd who watched the excitement sighed for a while, and turned around and left.

Hu Yan mingled in the crowd, and Ta pulled some shoes that didn't heel, and gradually walked away.

According to the criminal law, heart stabbing is to strip the heart from the body so that the body cannot be intact after death.

But when Mi Jiu came to collect Yan Delin's body, he found that Yan Delin's heart was still in his body! He guessed that Qu Nan was extrajudicially gracious, but he couldn't thank him. After all, the demon girl had personally admitted that she had killed Fenghua, but Qu Nanyi didn't listen to him and insisted on beheading Yan Delin.

Do you hate Qu Nanyi?

No.

Do you hate witches?

I don't know.

Qi Jiu, who calmed down, did not hate Hu Yan to death. It is written in the play that on the way to the exam, the scholar was bewitched by the demon girl and died in the suburbs. Presumably that monster is extremely beautiful. The witch who had plagued him had not yet shown her face, and he had been so deceived that he could not distinguish anything.

There are so many thin and cold things in this world that emotions are not real. And he didn't care if she was beautiful or ugly, he just wanted to hold her hand, and the white head would not be separated.

It's a pity that the demon girl only wants the life of a scholar.

It's a pity that the scholar is serious after all.

Fortunately, it was only for a while.
