Chapter 2856 Settlement of Accounts

When kindness becomes a habit, it is a disaster, a disaster for the kind person himself.

That was one day after I reached another level, the boy suddenly came to me and confided his troubles to me.

He drank a lot that day and was very drunk.

Drunk, he explained a sad thing to me - his sister was attracted by a certain nobleman. The nobleman was not only old and ugly, but also had a disgusting quirk, which was that he liked to torture. Girls, and the more innocent and clean they are, the more he desires them.

At that time, I was still a poor and weak rookie. When I heard the word "noble", for no reason, I felt that this matter was difficult today.

After all, I have just arrived here for more than a year, and I only know that this world has very strict regulations on the class system. Nobles have considerable privileges, and the more noble the nobles are, the more extensive their privileges are, from controlling territory to controlling the country. From deciding the life and death of people to controlling the survival of a family.

Let's put it this way, if a noble killed me at that time, there was no need to report the crime to the relevant departments and surrender. All you had to do was send a servant to inform the relevant departments and ask them to send someone to dispose of the body and clean the floor, that's all.

Therefore, at that time, I had an inexplicable fear of offending the nobles.

Adhering to the principle that doing more is worse than doing less, I didn't plan to help him directly, but I couldn't get around the obstacle of being a benefactor, so I decided to help indirectly - that is, to give him advice.

"You can take your sister out of this town," I suggested. "As long as you are still alive and you still have some assets on hand, even if you are not rich, you can continue to maintain your current life. There should be no problem."

"It's useless." The young man had a sad look on his face, opened the wine stall, and sighed heavily: "The noble master is related to a big noble in the imperial city, and his power is frightening. Even if I escape to Lincheng, He will still be caught by other nobles who want to curry favor with him and given to him as a gift, haha."

He smiled miserably and said: "Common people like us are just playthings in the eyes of those nobles. They usually don't bother to pay attention to them. But if they really get interested, none of them can escape."

His words were pitiful, and the expression on his face was even more gloomy. Perhaps he had already accepted his fate, but was just unwilling to do so and wanted to talk to a friend.

Seeing that he didn't accept my idea, and my comforting words were neither painful nor itchy, they couldn't relieve his dejected mood at all, so he began to think about the ins and outs related to this matter.

For example, how did the noble master know about his sister.

So I asked him this question point-blank, and his answer was simple: "I don't know."

"Hasn't your noble lord seen your sister?" I asked.

"My sister usually only hangs around the slums, but it is impossible for the noble master to come here."

I became even more curious: "In that case, how did he know about your sister?"

The young man kept shaking his head, his expression was gloomy, and sorrow came to his mind. As he shook his head, he fell drunk to the ground and fell unconscious.

I know that it is impossible to ask the reason from his mouth. This is a kind and cowardly guy, and his kindness is quite pure, so pure that he also regards other people as being as kind as him.

Although I know that this kind of person will definitely not end well, I don't want a tragic end to happen in front of me, because he is my benefactor.

So I went around the neighborhood, alleys, casinos, and wine shops, and finally I got a clue - it was Mr. Liu who, in order to curry favor with the aristocratic master, tricked the young man and also harmed the young man's sister.

After knowing all this, I told the young man the news the next day after he sobered up.

After hearing this, the young man became furious and wanted to argue with Master Liu. However, he was stopped by me. If he went to see Master Liu in his current state, he would only be beaten and disabled by a group of thugs around Master Liu.

So I once again suggested that he take his sister and go away to a foreign country, as far away as possible. It is said that Airui City is good, prosperous and wealthy, with many business opportunities. You can escape to Airui City to live. I don’t believe it. Even if he has some influence in York and Han City, he will always You won't be able to do whatever you want in Airui City.

This time, the boy did not refute me, but fell into silence.

This silence lasted for a week.

A week later.

When I saw him again, the young man was lying at home with bruises all over his body. He desperately told me that his sister had been robbed into the house by the noble master two days ago. The robbers were Mr. Liu and his gang. Man, he wanted to stop him at that time, but he was beaten so hard by Mr. Liu and his gang that he fainted. When he woke up, he was the only one left in this empty broken house.

He cried sadly, hoping to see his sister again and ask her how she was doing and whether she was still alive.

At that time, I was angry because of his cowardice, but also sad because of his helplessness. I told him to recuperate at home, and I promised to help him find out the current condition of his sister.

It is actually not difficult to find out about his sister, because everyone likes to gossip, especially gossip about nobles.

Within a few days, I found out about the noble lord’s new concubine from a drunken adventurer.

When I heard the news, I was instantly confused. I didn’t know how to tell the boy, because his sister could not bear the humiliation and was tortured to death.

After struggling all night, I finally told him the news. After learning the news, he fainted on the spot. When he woke up, there was no luster in his eyes, replaced by anger and hatred.

He went dark.

It's not his fault, no matter who it is, they will turn dark after learning that the person they cherish the most was tortured to death.

This is human nature.

After a night, the young man had gray hair. He calmly made his only request to me: to send him to the noble lord's mansion and give him a weapon.

I didn't stop him because I knew that he had lost hope of living. Revenge was the only thing he wanted to do now, and death was his only destination.

I agreed and gave him a sharp dagger that could definitely pierce low-grade fine iron with one blow. In order to buy this dagger, I spent all my savings.

Taking advantage of the darkness, I evaded the guards and climbed over the high wall, and I successfully sent him to the noble lord's mansion.

The young man nodded to me gratefully: "Thank you very much. I will pray for you at the God of Creation."

"Take care of yourself."

I climbed over the wall again and jumped out of the mansion.

I didn't stay outside the wall for long, because I knew that the boy's fate would be tragic, but at least he was brave before he died.

And I also have something to do, which is to settle an account with Mr. Liu.
