Early in the morning, when it was just dawn, Wu Da removed the door panel of the cake shop as usual.
In fact, he had already gotten up when he was in Yin, making dough, kneading dough, rising dough, making cakes, opening pots, steaming...
When the first cage of cooking cakes was steamed, the residents of Dongxing District came out to work.
"Da Lang, bring me two cooking cakes!"
"Three cooking cakes, two with pickles and one with oil drum."
"I want five."
Wu Da agreed while skillfully picking up cakes and collecting money.
One basket after another the cooking cakes were sold out, and as the sun rose, all the customers passed by.
Wu Da simply cleared the chopping board, then moved out a bench and sat at the door of the store, holding two leftover pancakes for breakfast, slowly nibbling one bite at a time.
This man, less than thirty years old, has gray hair and a dark face full of wrinkles.
His eyes were numb, and he looked like a man in his forties or fifties.
This small cake shop was passed down from ancestor Wu Da and once fed a large family.
Now only Wu Da and his son are left.
His parents went back to their hometown to visit relatives a few years ago, but they were hit by Evil Spirits, and all the people in the village were wiped out.
My younger brother Erlang was forcibly recruited into the army and went to guard the northwest border. There has been no news for three or four years.
In all likelihood, it's gone.
His wife was born two years ago and was still three months pregnant at the time.
Wu Da really wants to go along.
But I really couldn't let go of my two-year-old son, so I gritted my teeth and persisted.
Year after year.
He didn't know how many more years he could hold on.
People say that the Wu family's cooking cakes are not as fragrant and sweet as before.
Yes, his wife kneaded the dough and beat the cakes in the past, so the taste was of course different.
Life is so hard now.
How fragrant and sweet can the cakes made be?
After finishing the cooking cake in his hand, Wu Da licked clean the crumbs remaining on his fingers, took a sip of water, got up and prepared to go upstairs to wake up his snoozing son.
At this moment, an old woman in a sarong skirt hurriedly ran over from the corner of the street with her little feet.
She ran to the door of the cooking cake shop and shouted, "Dalang, why are you still selling cooking cakes here? Something big has happened!"
Wu Da was a little confused. "What's the matter?"
This is the neighbor Aunt Li. I used to have a very close relationship with his parents.
"Celestial Master's Mansion..."
Aunt Li rubbed his chest and said excitedly, "Those guys in the Celestial Master's Mansion have all been arrested now, and they are kneeling in front of the stone lion, saying they want to behead them!"
What?!
There was a bang in Wu Da's head, and his face instantly turned purple. "Auntie, are you kidding?"
"Can this be a joke?"
Aunt Li rolled his eyes at him. "Go and take a look, the Steward Ximen who killed a thousand swords is also kneeling there!"
"Auntie, could you please help me look at the store?"
Wu Da rushed towards the street without thinking, "I'll give you a basket of cooking cakes when you get back!"
Aunt Li stamped his feet. "Ah!"
She also wanted to go see the fun again, so how could she have time to help Wu Da look after the store.
But come to think of it, a cage of cooked cakes is more delicious.
Wu Da Regardless, he rushed out of the long street at a speed he had never seen before in his life, and ran a hundred steps north to the intersection.
Soon I saw the tall wall Garrison Celestial Master's Mansion ahead.
There are also two lifelike Qinggang Stone lions in front of the gate.
The left and right sides of the Garrison Celestial Master's Mansion are Dongxing District and Xiliu District respectively, where thousands of families live.
In the past two years, the people in the Celestial Master's Mansion have been arrogant and domineering to the common people.
It caused great harm to the neighbors.
Everyone hated them deeply and secretly said that only the pair of stone lions at the door of Tianshi Mansion were clean and innocent.
I hope God will send down a thunderbolt and kill all these people!
But the neighbors also know it.
This is just a fantasy. The Celestial Master is an immortal master with great supernatural powers. Even the prince of the county will kneel down when he sees it.
Common people like them simply cannot afford to offend.
I never expected that God really opened his eyes today, that evildoers will also get retribution!
When Wu Da ran to the main entrance of the Celestial Master's Mansion, there were already three circles of people in front of the stone lion.
"Really caught?"
"Hahaha, these beasts are here too!"
"There will be retribution!"
"August Heaven is on top, August Heaven is on top!"
Wu Da is not tall and cannot see what is going on inside.
He was so anxious that he immediately used brute strength to force his way through the crowded crowd.
Successfully squeezed to the front.
Then Wu Da saw at a glance that twenty or thirty Celestial Master's Mansion stewards and handymen, who were usually arrogant and domineering, were kneeling in a row next to the stone lion.
He knew one of them very well!
"Ximen Jin!"
Wu Da's eyes instantly turned red, and blood rushed to his head.
He ignored the black-clothed guards standing in front of the Celestial Master's Mansion, clenched his fists and roared like a beast.
Then he rushed forward desperately, waved his fist with bulging veins with all his strength, and smashed his head and face into a young man kneeling on the ground!
Two years ago, Wu Da's pregnant wife went to the street to buy groceries, but was hit by someone and took her directly to the house.
A body was returned the next day.
Wu Da had no way to appeal, and a feeling of sorrow and anger accumulated in his heart. At this moment, he got all the vents.
When he rushed up to beat someone, a black-clothed guard tried to stop him.
But he was stopped by his companions.
Everyone just watched as Wu Da punched Ximen Jin one after another, knocking Ximen Jin to the ground and beating him until he was howling like a ghost.
The beating continued until there was gradually no sound.
None of the neighbors knew about the Wu family's affairs, and no one came forward to dissuade them. They just felt extremely happy!
Until Wu Da lost the strength to fight, he covered his face with his bloody fists and cried silently.
A neighbor who had a good relationship with him had the courage to step forward and help Wu Da, who had lost all strength, aside.
The guards in black didn't care either.
Then a guard stood on the steps and loudly announced the decree of the new Protector Heavenly Master.
The onlookers were immediately shocked!
Only then did everyone realize that it was the new owner of the Garrison Celestial Master's Mansion who upheld justice and made decisions for the people.
These villains who ruined the reputation of the Celestial Master's Mansion will not only be beheaded in public, but their property will also be confiscated.
Make amends for the victims!
"Okay!"
The crowd went wild.
Waves of cheers, accompanied by severed heads, soared into the sky.
The dripping blood splashed onto the Qinggang Stone lion, washing away the dust on it.
In front of the Garrison Celestial Master's Mansion, more and more people were watching.
Wu Da, who had regained some strength, was squeezed out instead.
"Brother!"
At this moment, he suddenly heard a familiar call.
Wu Da Turned around suddenly and saw a hunky-backed man standing a few steps away with tears in his eyes.
The opponent's left sleeve was empty, and his right arm held Wu Da's youngest son.
There was also a beautiful woman beside him.
"Erlang!"
Wu Da's vision blurred for a moment, and his lips trembled with excitement and his body trembled.
Just listen to the other party say, "Jinlian, meet my brother soon!"
