Chapter 199: The Onlookers
In the early morning, the temperature was still a little cool, but it could not hinder the heat and impulse generated by the strong emotions in the hearts of the people at this time, and a large number of townspeople seemed to feel the slight coolness of the temperature at all, and all gathered together in this place, the road in front of the mansion of the very famous small town merchant Brand, and the road in front of the mansion of the famous small town merchant Brand, the originally quite spacious road, suddenly crowded a little watery.
Usually it is really difficult to see so many people gathered together at the same time in the town, most of the time, the whole town is deserted, except for the time of work, everyone is basically staying in their own home, only a few cases, such as something major happens, or when there is a major party, everyone will go out of their own door, get together, as it is now.
The townspeople of the town almost poured out of their nests.
Of course, this matter in front of me is really a very important thing for the townspeople of the town, and the other thing is that it is rare to have such a thing as an introduction, so that the townspeople of the town have walked out of their homes and can have a good time, so whether it is someone who has something to do, they can't help but gather here as if they are attracted.
"You've heard about what happened......" People are discussing, especially some of them have always been well-informed, and have become the focus of many people's attention, of course, these people are also extraordinarily enjoying the feeling of being concerned, they are surrounded by the crowd in the center, feeling the eyes of people from all directions, looking around at the people around the look of expectation and anxious expressions, looking at their attentive listening, and used to ask questions, those well-informed people can't help but have an extreme sense of refreshment and pleasure in their hearts, when they are really happy, and therefore often when the news is insufficient, they are habitually mixed with some private goodsOf course, these private goods will not affect the authenticity of the news too much, but the speculation is further amplified and expanded.
Of course, most people also know that they basically belong to the category of bragging, but as long as they can stir up the atmosphere, no one will care about this.
In fact, more people are not concerned about the news itself, in fact, with their identity and status, and even influence and ability, they do not have any interference and correction ability for the news itself, and all they can do is to passively accept it, just a little talk, or curse, and praise or something, but it seems to be able to enhance their attention in the hearts of others, and this approach will not be less meaty, so why not?
Of course, this is also a good opportunity to enhance the relationship between each other and increase the favorability!
The same topic, the same point of view, between laughing and scolding, everyone's opinions are unified, the spirit is harmonious, the thoughts are also the same, and the relationship between each other is also strengthened and improved, stable and united, which is a good thing.
"Of course I heard about it, otherwise why would I have come here early in the morning without doing anything, I heard that it was the news that came last night, and it was really a very amazing thing, I didn't expect everything to go well, why was it going to end all of a sudden, what the hell is going on here? Do you know?"
"It seems to be a direct order from the top! Just one sentence stopped the whole thing, but the specific thing, no one can say, but this morning's newspaper heard that there will be relevant news, but how true it is, but it is really impossible to say! Damn the news media, they have all been bought off by the evil capitalists, and they don't know how to report some real news, but they only know how to fool us low-level people!" A certain Western troll is unhappy in his heart, and he is very accustomed to bringing things into the ditch of conspiracy theories, and then violently criticizing everything that can be criticized, otherwise it is really difficult to show the integrity and selflessness of worrying about the country and the people that he has.
"Who said no, in the final analysis, it is just a game and exchange of interests between politicians, and who would really think about the life and death of us ordinary people! Hey, it's still a problem with the system, those hateful politicians, all of them are fat-headed and big-eared, throwing shoes and fighting in the parliament, they are all good hands, but when they really do something practical for our people, they know prevarication and nonsense, none of these guys who should be killed with a thousand knives are good things, hum, I have never voted for these ugly guys since fifteen years ago, and it will be the same in the future!" A certain townsman who was extremely angry about the current social structure said angrily, and at the same time, he also carried an old-fashioned, but obviously well-maintained steel sword on his shoulder, and some key parts of his body were also equipped with the most basic steel defense armor, and the whole person looked as if he was a samurai who was ready to fight to the death with an evil enemy, and what was even more strange was that there were many people around him who were dressed in the same clothes as him, of course, what was even more strange was that basically all the townspeople were used to this kind of appearance, and not only did they not show any strangenessOn the contrary, there was a discussion of the equipment on their bodies, the swords behind their backs, and the shields, spears, axes, flails, hammers, and even bows and arrows that some of them carried.
It's really like you're going to war.
However, it seems that these are also a tradition that has been formed for many years in the town, and even these have an ancient style, but the maintenance is excellent equipment, basically they have at least a hundred years of history, can really be called antique, and have really been on the battlefield.
On the contrary, if someone is holding some modern products in their hands, it will attract many people's contemptuous eyes, disdainful eyes, even without saying half a sentence, just such a gaze and eyes can make it difficult for you to stand in the ranks of everyone, you can't help but drop the modern products in your hands, and then run home ashamed.
In fact, it is more accurate to say that this is an exhibition, an exhibition of ancient weapons, as for the people holding these weapons, they are not actually real soldiers, but just seem to be part of the procession, although frankly these people holding ancient weapons are really quite trained, with real combat ability of the quasi-soldiers, if it is really necessary, they are also immediately transformed into real soldiers, of course, although they are only soldiers who use cold weapons, but in the case of modern armies can not be easily used, the sum of their combat power is also quite amazing。
At least the ordinary underworld armed forces cannot be compared with them.
Even the police force in the ordinary sense is difficult to match them.
"As far as I am concerned, the current social structure is simply a kind of regression, even compared to the feudal lord system hundreds of years ago, at least those feudal lords, most of them still care about us ordinary people, not those hateful politicians now, they are simply synonymous with mediocrity and selfishness!" An old man who was at least sixty years old, but was dressed in a draped garment, armed with a shield and a heavy axe, and whose body was strong and powerful, was simply as powerful as an adult black bear, and there was no trace of aging or weakness on his body, his eyes widened, his mouth open, and his mouth spoke his rumbling words like thunder.
"Hey, it's just a common person, it's not your turn to worry about these things, do you want to subvert the social system, wait until you become a dictator one day and then think about such a thing, now it's still an honest ordinary person, usually live honestly, pay taxes and taxes, eat and eat, don't think about anything else, anyway, the world will not change with your wishes, besides, what is good about the feudal lord system, people in that era can't even eat enough, not to mention that they are always fighting endlessly, and they don't even have basic life security, I really don't know how you miss such an era, when people get old, their brains are dizzy?" someone heard the old man's words, and pouted with some disdain, he obviously didn't agree with the other party's opinion.
"Hmph, incompetent people will naturally say this, there are always people who can't eat enough in any era, and there are always people who don't even have basic life security, but we are born and die for the lord, and we can always get some reward, but now the adults will just ask for us, and they don't seem to know how to repay!" the old man shouted loudly, his face full of contempt.
"If you say that, don't you enjoy all kinds of social benefits?" said one of them at once.
"What is called social welfare, that is the most basic right that all citizens should enjoy, if you don't even have anything to say about this, what kind of citizens are the people, it's better to be slaves, and where do these come from, they don't rely on our taxes, rely on squeezing our income, in the final analysis, they are just scraped away from us, but in the end there is only this kind of return, you still have to be grateful to Dade, in the end, your brain is dizzy, or my brain is dizzy, haven't you woken up? The old man replied with a thunderous voice.
"You're just messing around, the upper-class characters naturally have the consideration of the upper-class characters!" someone opened his mouth to fight back, but it was obvious that the strength of the counter-attack had weakened a little, and it was obvious that he also somewhat agreed with the old man's words from the feeling.
Even many people in the neighborhood have similar opinions.
For the vast majority of people, it is obvious that they have this view, they feel that what they enjoy and what they pay is not proportional, and even they always have such thoughts in their hearts, they pay far less than they get, so the next question arises, that is, where does the missing part go?
When I usually read the newspaper and see the news of a certain big man who has embezzled and accepted bribes, and see the news that a certain big man has entered and exited a luxury car, lived in a luxury house, and surrounded by a group of beautiful women, and saw the news that a certain big man has traveled abroad and is reimbursed at public expense, then there will naturally be an answer to everything! The final result of my hard work and fatigue all day long is that I have only received a little bit of return, and most of the rewards are in vain to cheapen those hateful and ugly big people.
It's really embarrassing, how embarrassing!
Therefore, it is natural that the little people are born with antipathy and malice towards the big people, especially the older the people feel about it, the more they will not be affected and whitewashed by some propaganda and reports, and the more they can see the essence of this thing and delve into its inner origin.
That's why such words are spoken.
"Okay, okay, that's a bit off topic, let's talk about what we need to face in front of us, shall we?" someone interjected, inhibiting the expansion and diversion of the topic, and trying to get the topic back on track.
"Well, those useless ones can't be changed anyway, and I don't bother to say it, I still focus on the present, that damn Brand, why don't you come out to explain the situation, which makes Lao Tzu anxious, but he wants to rush to his house, pull out his people, and clean him up, if you dare to say half a word, Lao Tzu will cut off his dog head with an axe, look at the fat of his body, and know that he is not a good thing, and he will definitely not be wronged if he dies!" The old man said angrily, and at the same time, in order to show his extraordinary momentum, he waved the heavy axe in his hand, but the people around him suddenly dispersed in a large circle, for fear that the heavy axe would not fall on Brand's body by accident, but it would fall on them.
"Hey, it's good to stop a little, don't say anything big, you really dare to do it, you have already done it, not to mention that even if Brande washes his neck and stands in front of you, I don't think you have the guts to cut it down, killing people is to pay for your life, and what kind of body type do people have, and what kind of thing do you care, people have money, they can eat if they want, they can drink if they want, it is not a crime, and even if it is a crime, there are naturally relevant departments to deal with it, and you have a half-dime relationship!" Someone couldn't help but speak, as if he was born with the old man a little bit of backlash.
It's just that the old man who heard this didn't get angry, he just smiled, and walked directly to someone with the axe in his hand, and said at the same time: " Hehe, that guy Brande doesn't have a half-dime relationship with me, is this correct, and I also need you to talk about it, but I think I may have a half-dime relationship with you, and I don't need you to wash your neck, as long as you stand still honestly, I don't use the front of the axe, just use the back of the axe to give you a moment, haha, what do you think!"
Saying this, the old man turned the direction of the axe in his hand sharply.
And his action like this immediately frightened someone who was not far away, and his face changed on the spot, and he hurriedly looked around and said, "There are so many people here, you must not come nonsense!"
His gaze turned, as if he were asking for help.
"It's okay, it's okay, we didn't see anything!"
"Oh, it's so dark, I was born color blind, hehe!" someone said, although it doesn't seem to have anything to do with color blindness or something, but I don't care about it.
"Haha, then I'm not blind!" Someone is even more energetic, with a pair of big shining eyes, and no one has good eyesight. 0, at least a 1. 9, but so said.
"It's not important to be blind or anything, the important axe comes down, even if you use the back, the head doesn't fall off, and the neck can't stand it, haha!"
"I suggest you use the front, but you don't need to cut off the head so bloody, just one hand, or one foot, probably enough, it's better! It won't affect normal life in the future, hahaha!" someone fanned the flames from the side.
"You, you people, how can you be like this, ah, ah, you really want to ...... You're breaking the law, I'm going to call the police to arrest you, call the police to arrest you......" someone shouted hurriedly and said loudly.
"Go, it will take at least half an hour for the police to come here, and if everything goes well, if there is a slight delay, I don't know when it is, this time is enough for me to concoct you well, so please enjoy yourself, haha, hey, don't run, don't run!" the old man didn't care at all, just walked forward with his axe.
At this time, someone screamed loudly, immediately turned around and ran, there is a way that a good man does not suffer a loss in front of him, even if there is a police officer after the fact, but the loss is also a loss, not to mention the age of the old man, even if the police really arrive, they will only be lightly punished, and the people nearby have no intention of helping him, so in the end, if he ends up with a fight, then he will not be brought into the ditch.
The gains outweigh the losses, the gains outweigh the losses, let's run away first!
I have to say that someone is aware of current affairs.
Despite the ridicule, it was clear that it was bearable for him.
In the end, the old man was left laughing, and in unison with the contempt of the crowd around him, someone disappeared from the crowd.
