Chapter 2855 Kind People
A mixture of fish and dragons has always been the most real thing in this world. Even in the smallest town, there will be factional disputes and open and secret fights.
After escaping into that town, I originally wanted to find a corner to sleep on the street. However, while I was sleeping soundly, I felt severe pain in my body. At the same time, there were constant noises. When I opened my eyes, I saw a group of frivolous people. Impetuous or vicious faces appeared in front of me. They all had their arms akimbo, looking very much like the Young and Dangerous boys in the movie.
I asked them doubtfully if something was wrong. One of the young and Dangerous boys said to me very rudely: "Do you know that this is our territory? If you dare to sleep here without paying filial piety money or worshiping the mountain, is it offensive?" The skin is tight and you want to loosen it? Huh?"
Seeing that there were so many of them, some of them were adventurers and were even a little higher than me. With the idea that a good man should not suffer any immediate losses, I nodded and stood up to leave, but I was stopped by several people. Stopped.
A guy who looked like the leader raised his chin at the younger guys around him. The younger guys understood immediately and rushed over one by one with their claws and teeth. Two grabbed my arms, two grabbed my legs, and two started to search me. .
Soon, all my assets were confiscated by them, a total of one gold coin, twenty silver coins and forty copper coins.
The leader weighed the money and nodded with satisfaction. The four boys immediately let go of their hands, and one of them pushed me on the back: "Get out of here!"
But I didn’t leave in despair, because my money was still in their hands, so I shouted to the leader: “Give me my money back.”
The leader chuckled: "I didn't hear you clearly, can you say it again?"
"I said-" I emphasized my tone: "Give me the money back!"
The leader smiled cruelly, picked his ears, and said again: "What did you say?"
As his words fell, the faces of the younger brothers immediately turned evil, and some of them slowly pulled out their weapons, threatening to chop you to death if you dared to speak.
I also subconsciously put my hand on the handle of the knife, and at the same time said with a sinister face, "I said."
"Master Liu! Master Liu!" A voice came from not far away, a little anxious and a little afraid.
The leader ignored the speaker. Instead, the dogleg next to him tilted his head and sneered, "What are you doing here at night, you idiot? Do you want to see blood, or do you want to be stabbed in a hole?"
The person who came was a young man, about the same age as me. He stood in front of me with a smile on his face, and said humbly: "Master Liu! Master Liu, please forgive me. This is my brother. He is new here and is ignorant, so he caused you trouble." "
The leader narrowed his eyes and said nothing, and the loser next to him asked again: "Your brother? Why haven't I heard that you have a brother?"
"This is a distant relative of mine who came from a mountain village. My parents are no longer here, so he came to seek refuge with me. I just went out to do some errands and asked him to wait for me where he was. Who knew he wandered off and got lost? It made me anxious, hey, I found him, thank you Master Liu for helping me find my brother, thank you Master Liu for your kindness."
As he spoke, he kept bowing and saluting. He looked very much like a slave, but for some reason, I couldn't feel any contempt for him. On the contrary, I was a little moved.
"Huh." The leader smiled contemptuously, turned around, and left.
"It turns out he is a country bumpkin from a mountain village. No wonder he has to know our Mr. Liu, tsk."
"Looking at his clothes, he looks like a beggar, and his expression, I really want to slap them both. If Mr. Liu hadn't shown mercy, I can guarantee that if they met, they would have stuffed this kid's head into his crotch! "
A group of people cursed and left arrogantly.
Only me and the young man who just kept groveling, flattering and slandering were left.
Seeing the person walking away, I bowed and said, "Thank you for your help. May I ask your surname?"
"As someone from a small family, just think that I have no name or surname." He waved his hand and said, "But you have to be careful. That Mr. Liu is the tyrant of our town, and these streets are his territory. , when I see him in the future, it’s better to say a few nice words, give some money, and seek peace than anything else, but we can’t get into a tense situation like today. If there’s a fight, we’ll suffer a lot!”
"Okay, I understand, thank you."
I bowed again and said.
The man shook his head and didn't say much. He looked me up and down for a moment, then sighed softly and said, "Are you afraid that you have been blackmailed?"
I nodded: "That's right."
"Forget it, we are destined to meet each other. Let's stay at my house today."
He said, leading the way and taking me out of the street.
His house is a very dilapidated small house. Fortunately, the walls and ceiling have been renovated several times, and it does not leak either from wind or rain. It can barely be regarded as a safe haven.
Entering the house, I saw a beautiful figure.
This is a girl who can be considered pretty despite her simple clothes. She is slightly younger than the boy. Through the introduction, I know that she is the boy's younger sister.
The parents of the boy and girl died early, and at a very young age they relied on the savings left by their parents and made money by doing small businesses.
Although life was quite poor, they were still able to survive. At least they had three meals to eat, but the dishes were a little drab, mostly wild vegetables and fruits. As for rice and white noodles, they were reserved for New Years and holidays.
The brother and sister led me into a side room, brought out the leftover wild vegetables and a few thick-wheat steamed buns, and scooped out a large bowl of cold water for me. Being a little hungry and thirsty, I stopped being polite and drank from the bowl, grabbing the steamed buns. I ate the steamed buns without forgetting to stuff my mouth with wild vegetables.
To be honest, the taste of this meal was really bad, but I was very full and satisfied.
After I had eaten and drank enough, I rested in the side room for the night. Early the next morning, I said goodbye and left the small house.
I have to farm monsters in dungeons to make money so I can survive.
After that, I met the boy from time to time, and the boy invited me to his home from time to time.
From constant contact, I learned that both boys and girls are hospitable people, and they are kind-hearted and a bit silly.
I repeatedly made insinuations and reminded the young man not to meddle too much, so as not to get into trouble, but the young man didn't care. He felt that as long as everyone became kind, friendly, helpful, and tolerant, the world would be better. It's going to be wonderful.
I was shocked by his stupid idea, but when I saw his kind and pure eyes, I was too embarrassed to scold him anymore, so I had to give up.
But I know you can’t overdo anything, including kindness.
Because, too much is never enough.
Because, when you fight for rice's kindness, you gain the strength of rice's hatred.
Kindness should only exist at certain times, and at other times, it should show other different emotions, such as persistence, determination, coldness, and rejection.
