In the downtown area of ​​Chaozhou City, there are many rogue people living in the inner and outer three floors. Among them are merchants and vendors, porters, young daughters and daughters-in-law, and even some scoundrels with bare breasts exposed, sitting on small stools and snatching their feet.

At this time, these people stretched their necks and looked at the inner circle of the crowd. Although everyone was excited, frothing and talking, they did not dare to push and pull each other, and they all maintained a certain degree of restraint. The reason for this was that there was a row of yamen runners holding whistle sticks and sabres in the inner circle of the crowd maintaining order on the scene.

These yamen runners surrounded the site in a large circle, and there was a bamboo shed behind the site. In the shed was a middle-aged official wearing a blue-black head and wearing an official uniform. The official closed his hands with his sleeves and closed his eyes to rest, waiting for noon.

In the center of the venue, there was a low wooden platform, on which a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes was tied to a wooden stake, and a piece of shackle with his name and guilt hung on his chest. A executioner with a ghost-headed knife in his hand and exposed his arms was standing behind him.

The reason why these people in Chaozhou City are attracted to this is that this downtown city is to be a court today and a murderous prisoner is executed. To say that Chaozhou City is big or small, there are many prisoners who have been executed in the autumn in the morning. However, most of the reason why it can attract so many people to watch is because of the young prisoner himself.

The young man was named Sun Man, a fisherman from a small fishing village on the east side of Chaozhou City. Sun Man has been fishing for generations. When he was a child, his father never came back after going to sea. His mother raised Sun Man with great difficulty by helping the fishermen in the village repair fishing nets, cleaning clothes, and providing assistance to some simple villagers.

After Sun Man became an adult, the villagers raised money to build him a dilapidated fishing boat for him to make a living. Sun Man himself was well-behaved and tall and strong, and leaned against this boat, but he could barely survive with his mother and no longer needed the help of the villagers.

Sun Man was strong in his heart, and the help the villagers gave him was always kept in mind. If he had saved a few big money on weekdays, he would immediately return it to the villagers and settle his previous debts. However, in this way, the family would not have any surplus grain left, and he would have no savings. He was only twenty years old, but he was still a bachelor and could not get married.

However, this kind of life changed a year ago. A childhood playmate of Sun Man returned to Chaozhou City. The man's name was Qi Fei. He left Chaozhou with his father when he was a child. Now he has a successful career, so he returned to his hometown to get married and have children.

When Qi Fei came back, he brought back some wealth. He had a deep relationship with Sun Man, and when he saw that his family was poor, he generously donated money. He helped Sun Man build the house and prepared a bride price to marry him a beautiful woman who was not outstanding but still virtuous. Although Sun Man had never thanked Qi Fei, he kept this friendship in mind.

A few days ago, Sun Man's wife gave birth to a fat boy for him. Sun Man invited Qi Fei to the restaurant to have a drink. During the meal, after Qi Fei got drunk, Sun Man suddenly became crazy and stabbed Qi Fei to death with a sharp knife that usually killed fish.

After killing Qi Fei, Sun Man abandoned his sword and rushed to the county government to surrender. At the same time, he confessed to the chaotic behavior of his friends after drinking. Although Chaozhou Prefecture was surprised by Sun Man's weird behavior, since the criminal surrendered and confessed to the confession, they were happy to fulfill it. So, a verdict was quickly made, and Sun Man killed someone and was executed by Qiu Hou.

However, what the people in the government office did not expect was that after this incident spread, it caused a stir. The people in the fishing village who were familiar with Sun Man, including his mother and wife, did not believe that Sun Man would kill his friends for no reason and would make trouble. However, the people in Chaozhou City had completely opposite positions. Everyone despised Sun Man's ungratefulness, and the streets and alleys were filled with anger at the young fishermen.

"Sir, it's unfair! It's unfair!" Seeing that noon was approaching, a voice in the crowd finally cried and couldn't get up.

This is an old woman with wrinkles on her face, and there is a young woman holding a baby next to her, who is supporting her with a sad face. These two are Sun Man's mother and wife.

Seeing his mother and wife outside the execution ground, Sun Man, who was tied to a wooden stake, finally no longer had a blank face and his mouth slightly opened. Immediately, the young fisherman seemed to remember something, his chest fluttered twice, then calmed down again, closed his eyes tightly, and stopped looking at the two of them.

"The time has come, execution is carried out!" The middle-aged official sitting in the bamboo shed looked up at the sun at noon, then raised the token on the table and ordered the executioner to use a knife.

The executioner took off the shackles on Sun Bai's chest expressionlessly, and made him lower his head and kneel down. He then picked up a bowl of strong wine beside him, first sprayed a sip on the knife, then drank the strong wine in one breath, slowly raised the ghost-headed knife, and pointed it at the young man's neck.

The onlookers slowly calmed down, waiting for the moment when the heads fell to the ground. Sun Man's mother was already crying and fainted in her daughter-in-law's arms. The young woman turned her head away and couldn't bear to watch her husband beheaded in front of her.

Just as the executioner fell to his sword, a strange wind suddenly blew up in the center of the court, which made everyone have to raise their sleeves and close their eyes to block the dust. When the strange wind passed, everyone was in an uproar, but Sun Man, the prisoner in the center of the court, was gone.

...

"Thank you for your rescue, but you are willing to accept your crime and kill me. I'm afraid you'll waste this rescue of the hero!" Sun Man raised his eyelids, glanced at the iron-faced man in front of him, and said expressionlessly.

"Are you worried that the pirates on Tiger Shark Island will take revenge on your family?" The iron-faced man suddenly said in a shocking voice, "Since that is the case, why do you have to kill him? Although Qi Fei is a spy sent by the pirates to Chaozhou City, he is also considered to be kind to you. Even if you don't want to be with him, you don't have to kill him, making you unable to advance or retreat now!"

"...Manruo had known that Qi Fei was a pirate, he would never have accepted his gift. If the pirates wanted to attack Chaozhou City, our fishing village was the first to be affected. The people in the fishing village had kindness to my family. If it weren't for them, Man and his mother would have starved to death. How could I let this happen?" Sun Man's face moved slightly and said with difficulty.

"If you want the village to be not affected by disaster, Man has to kill Qi Fei! Once Qi Fei dies, the pirates will think that Chaozhou City has learned their plans and will not go ashore to attack the city. After Man dies, the mother and his wife do not have to be retaliated by pirates. It is a waste of time for the hero to save Sun Man..."

"Hmph, it's not that simple! Qi Fei is a pirate. As long as you expose his identity, the Chaozhou magistrate will not only not convict you of serious crimes, but will also add more rewards. With these rewards, it is enough for you to move your mother and wife from the fishing village to the county town. What can the pirates do to you?" said the iron-faced man lightly.

Sun Man said silently, and after a while, he sighed, "Qi Fei is kind to Man. Although he is a pirate, he has settled in Chaozhou and married and had children. If I reveal his identity... I am afraid that his wife and children will be implicated..."

"If you die, although you can protect Qi Fei's family, your mother and the child who is just over a month old will have to rely on your wife in the future. If she can't stand this suffering and remarry others, then your mother and child will starve to death!" said the iron-faced man coldly.

Upon hearing this, Sun Man finally showed pain on his face, hugged his head with both hands, and slowly squatted on the ground. After a long time, he said in a hoarse voice: "Sun Man is incompetent and can't think of a better way. Can the heroes have a good idea to teach me?"

"Hehe, although you value love and righteousness and act decisively, you are using the wrong method! Treating diseases requires cutting off the roots. If you want to save the fishing village and family, or even protect Qi Fei's family. What's the use of killing Qi Fei?" The iron-faced man smiled sinisterly, "If you change me, you will agree to Qi Fei join the pirates, lure Qi Fei to lead the pirates ashore, and then design a notification to Chaozhou Prefecture to catch all these pirates in one go. With this contribution, you will lie to Chaozhou Prefecture that Qi Fei is also one of the internal supporters, so you can naturally protect Qi Fei's family!"

"But...but if something goes wrong..." Sun Man looked at the iron-faced man in amazement, shocked by his words.

"What's the point of making a mistake?" The iron-faced man smiled faintly, "Anyway, the pirates and the government are all killed and killed. Even if the government is not good, they are still prepared. If the bow, arrow, crossbow, attack, even if they cannot completely wipe out the pirates, they can still damage their vitality. I am afraid they will no longer be able to attack Chaozhou City. If you take a reward and then move your family to Chaozhou City, will it be a vast sky?"

"Ko...Ko Fishing Village..." Sun Man murmured in a low voice.

"After this battle, if the people in the fishing village do not know how to avoid it for a while, wait for the pirates to stay away from this place first. Then even if they die, they will not blame you." The iron-faced man said coldly, "Besides, in my opinion, there is no danger in the fishing village!"

"Why did the knight say this?" Sun Man asked in surprise.

"Hmph! Qi Fei is a native of your village. Now even a loyal person like you know that Qi Fei is a pirate. Do you think anyone else in the village will not know?" said the iron-faced man sneered, "In your fishing village, I'm afraid that there are more than Qi Fei who joins the pirates, but they are just hiding it from a fool like you!"

Sun Manru was struck by lightning and sat on the ground as if he was stunned. As soon as the Iron-Faced Man finished speaking, he immediately realized that the Iron-Faced Man's words were probably true. On weekdays, all kinds of doubts about the young people in the village gradually came to his mind.

"So, everything I did today is deceiving myself!" Sun Man lowered his head and was greatly hit.

"Everything has a cause and a result, how can a chivalrous act deceive oneself!" The tone of the iron-faced man suddenly softened, "I like you. I have already helped you deal with all this before the robbery of the law!"

As he said that, the iron-faced man flipped his hand and threw out a bag. The bag fell to the ground and spread out, full of gold and silver. In addition, a distorted head came out, which scared Sun Man.

"This is the head of the pirate leader. The other pirates have been killed by me. There will be no danger in your small village!" said the iron-faced man lightly, "The gold and silver inside will provide you with some use for Chaozhou Prefecture. You must always get rid of this infamous body!"

Sun Man was stunned for a while, and knelt in front of the iron-faced man with tears on his face. He kowtowed to him three times respectfully, and said with a sob, "Sun Man thought he could never be filial to his mother and raise his child to a human being. Unexpectedly, he still had the opportunity to be a human being again. The great kindness of the knight, please accept my blessing!"

"Hehe, don't rush to worship me. I'm not here to save you!" The iron-faced man suddenly said coldly, "I'll ask you, the fishermen around here all say that you are the best fisherman within a radius of hundreds of miles, but is it true?"

"This... the heroes don't know. This best fisherman is actually the boldest fisherman!" Sun Man suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "The fisherman has been fishing for many years. It's clear which seas have fish and those that don't have them! It's just that there are many fishermen near the sea, so there are naturally fewer people. There are few people in the sea, but the wind and waves are high and the waves are very dangerous. Sun Man's family is poor, and he always wants to catch more fish, so he often goes out of the sea, so he is called the best fisherman!"

"Oh? In this way, do you know this place..." The iron-faced man's eyes lit up and he pressed his hand on Sun Man's head. Soon, a sea view picture appeared in Sun Man's mind.

"It seems like this place..." Sun Man slowly frowned without hesitation.
