Chapter 1: Fighting with Beggars for Food

Qianguo.

Yancheng.

Song Wen was ecstatic as he held two dead-faced steamed buns pulled out of the swill bucket.

Maybe the steamed buns were too firm, or maybe there wasn't much soup in the swill bucket. The steamed buns were not soaked by the soup. The two steamed buns were relatively clean and not stained with too many soup stains.

He pulled off the two vegetable leaves stuck to the steamed bun, completely ignoring the stench emanating from the swill bucket beside him, and stuffed the steamed bun into his mouth.

The cold and dry steamed buns are extremely difficult to swallow without water. Song Wen didn't care so much and stuffed a steamed bun into his mouth after a few bites.

The dry buns sat on the top of his throat, making it difficult to swallow and he almost lost his breath.

After finally swallowing the steamed bun, his hungry stomach felt slightly better, but he still didn't feel full.

It had been two days since he physically traveled to this world, and this was the first meal he had eaten.

When he came to his senses, he saw a ten-year-old beggar boy appearing in front of him. The little beggar was pitifully staring at the remaining steamed bun in his hand, his eyes full of longing and hope.

Song Wen looked at the thin little beggar in front of him, and then at the steamed bun in his hand.

After a brief hesitation and entanglement, he put the steamed bun into his mouth without intending to give it to the little beggar.

He traveled to this world similar to ancient times, and found that what he had learned and used in modern society was of no use at all. It became extremely difficult for him to survive, and he had no intention of pitying others he had never met.

Seeing that the steamed bun was about to enter Song Wen's mouth, the little beggar's expression suddenly became fierce.

The little beggar suddenly ran two steps quickly, then suddenly jumped up, jumping two feet high, and grabbed the steamed bun in Song Wen's hand directly with both hands.

At the same time, the little beggar opened his dirty mouth, exposed his scorched yellow teeth, and bit down on Song Wen's forearm.

Regarding the sudden outburst of the little beggar, Song Wen's eyes first flashed with panic, and then he became furious.

I originally lived a good life in modern society. Although I was not a successful person, I didn't have to worry about food and drink. I was transported to this world inexplicably, with almost no ability to make a living, and I was already feeling angry.

Now even a half-sized beggar dares to bully him!

The anger in my heart seemed to have found an outlet,

Song Wen's expression became fierce.

"roll!"

Song Wen waved his arm and hit the little beggar.

When Song Wen traveled to this world, his body of thirty years old turned into that of fourteen or fifteen years old. He did not look tall, but he was still much taller and stronger than a little beggar who had been short of food for a long time.

Song Wen's forearm hit the little beggar directly in the face, causing the little beggar's nose to bleed.

But Song Wen obviously underestimated the ruthlessness of the little beggar. The little beggar was not knocked away by Song Wen's forearm. Instead, he hugged Song Wen's arm and bit him in one bite.

During the whole process, the fierce expression on the little beggar's face never changed at all, and his eyes were fixed on the steamed buns from beginning to end.

Song Wen was in pain and his face became more and more fierce.

"You little beast, if you dare to bite me, I will beat you to death."

Song Wen raised his knees and used all his strength to hit the little beggar's chest hard.

The little beggar suffered a heavy blow and his body became weak. He could no longer hold Song Wen's forearm. His whole body flew backward and hit the dirty ground one meter away.

Song Wen, who was furious in his heart, had no intention of letting the little beggar go. He stepped forward and kicked the little beggar directly in the chest, and then kicked the little beggar's body two meters away, causing blood to flow from his mouth. He was obviously injured. After suffering internal injuries, he gave up.

When Song Wenzheng was about to turn around and leave, he was shocked to find that the little beggar was looking at him with malicious eyes.

The little beggar's gaze made him feel cold all over, and a bad feeling crept into his heart.

When I first arrived, before I had any strength or background, it was best not to offend anyone, even a beggar at the bottom of society.

Who knows if this little beggar is protected by local evil forces?

Song Wen looked at the little beggar for a long time, and the thought of never causing future troubles flashed through his mind.

The location they were in now was a narrow and dark alley. No one usually came here, but now they were the only two here. Song Wen believed that no one would notice him for a while if he was ruthless and brutally killed the little beggar.

Even if someone discovered it, the death of a little beggar would attract little attention.

In this otherworldly Yancheng where the law is not strong, countless lower-class people die in vain every day, and the government does not pay attention to them at all, and they cannot pay attention to them.

Song Wen noticed from the corner of his eye that there was a pebble as big as a bowl in the corner of the alley. The pebble had a smooth surface and a hard texture. It should be at least harder than the little beggar's head.

The suffering he suffered in the past two days came to his mind at this moment, and the majestic resentment broke out in his heart, overwhelming Song Wen's reason and shattering the modern social ethics of more than 30 years in his previous life. Song Wen's face changed. Terrifying and terrifying.

Song Wen, who had witnessed a lot of burning, killing and looting in the past two days, seemed to have awakened the demon hidden deep in his heart at this moment.

Others are doing whatever they want. This is a world where people eat people without spitting out their bones. Why should I follow the moral ethics of my previous life?

Song Wen turned around and walked towards the pebble, and the little beggar's eyes slowly became frightened.

Suddenly, two servants from a wealthy family appeared at the entrance of the alley, carrying a swill bucket and walked in.

Seeing outsiders coming, his dazed rationality returned, the devil in his heart was hidden, and his reckless mind was restrained.

It was too late to do anything, Song Wen was a little disappointed, but also a little inexplicably fortunate. Shaking his head, he turned and walked out of the alley.

As soon as Song Wen walked out of the alley, he saw a large number of people rushing to the street.

These people were still shouting, "Hurry up, the Tiansha Gang is recruiting workers. If you go late, you will have no chance."

Song Wen's ears were almost calloused by the name of the Tiansha Gang in the past two days.

The Tiansha Gang is an absolute top gang force in Yancheng, and its power in some aspects is even stronger than the local government.

However, the Tiansha Gang has a bad reputation and has done a lot of evil things.

Song Wen also followed the crowd and rushed to the street.

Someone recruiting workers means there is a wage, and having a wage means that you can eat clean meals, which means that you don't have to compete with beggars for food in the swill bucket.

He struggled to get through the crowd and finally saw a notice posted on the wall on the corner of the street.

The words on the notice were similar to the traditional Chinese characters in his previous life. Although Song Wen had never learned traditional Chinese characters, he could still understand the general meaning.

The content of the notice was that the Tiansha Gang was recruiting children aged seven to twelve to join the gang to learn martial arts. These children would become the backbone of the gang in the future.

It also said that the families of the selected children would receive generous rewards, and the children would have a bright future in the future.

After reading the content of the notice, Song Wen was a little disappointed.

It turned out that the Tiansha Gang was recruiting new gang members, not simply recruiting workers.

Moreover, the Tiansha Gang only recruited children aged seven to twelve, and Song Wen's current body was not old enough.

Song Wen squeezed through the crowd and wanted to go outside.

However, in the noisy crowd, a loud shout suddenly sounded.

"Wait a minute, kid."

Song Wen heard the shout, but he didn't think it was calling him. He didn't stop and continued to squeeze out of the crowd.

"Boy, I'm talking about you. Why don't you stop? Are my words useless in Yancheng?"

The voice behind him became a little angry.

Song Wen had just arrived and was very cautious, afraid of offending people. He stopped and looked behind him to make sure whether the person who was talking was calling him.

He turned around and saw a man with a mustache, who looked like a bad gangster, staring at him with a bad look.

There were two strong men standing behind the man, all three of them were wearing the clothes of the Tiansha Gang.

Song Wen frowned instantly, thinking that it was not good. He didn't know how he had offended this "dog master".

Song Wen was originally an ordinary salesman in Blue Star. His many years of sales experience did not make him rich, but he learned to speak to people in a way that suited them and to treat people differently.

A flattering smile immediately appeared on his face, and he trotted two steps with his head bowed, and walked to the front of Lord Gou.

He smiled flatteringly, "Lord Gou, you called me, what do you want?"

Although Song Wen didn't like his behavior, he knew that he had just arrived in this lawless world and wanted to survive, so he had to be humble first.

If you offend the local snakes as soon as you arrive, you are either a fierce dragon crossing the river or a fool seeking your own death.
