Chapter 20: Saving Beauty
Looking at this humble unfinished building that could collapse at any time, Liu Yingying frowned. For a rich daughter like her, this kind of unfinished building is not even as good as her family's toilet, let alone used to live in people. However, after Liu Yingying looked at the place where Xiao Cangsheng lived, she did not stop because of this, but strode up to follow, which was already beyond Xiao Cangsheng's expectations.
"My place is very simple, you can find a place to sit. I'm going to cook first, and if you don't feel cold, you can eat some when the time comes. Xiao Cangsheng put down his things and said to Liu Yingying.
"You're busy, I'll visit first. When the time comes, I'll try Chef Xiao's craft, as long as it's not poison, I'll still be able to eat a few bites. Liu Yingying looked at Xiao Cangsheng's four-walled residence and said casually.
"Then you can visit slowly, maybe a rich lady like you has never been in such a shabby place." After Xiao Cangsheng finished speaking, he took a few side dishes he bought back and walked to the kitchen.
This so-called kitchen is a small place that separates a corner of the living room with a large strip of blackened cloth. But fortunately, the toilet is still independent, but the toilet has no door, and the place where the toilet is connected to the living room is also separated by a strip of cloth. There are two bedrooms, and only the room where Xiao Cangsheng lives has a door.
Looking at this humble residence, Liu Yingying felt a faint pain in her heart. Since I was a child, I have never seen such a humble place. In this cosmopolitan city, where every inch of land is at a premium, such a humble place is rare. With the economic conditions of laughing at the people, they can only afford to live in this kind of house. After looking at it casually, Liu Yingying couldn't bear to look at it anymore, mainly because there was nothing to look at.
"Done visiting?" Looking at Liu Yingying, who was standing behind him for some time, he asked with a smile.
"Hmm!" Liu Yingying leaned against the dark wall and nodded, she didn't seem to worry at all about the dust on the wall staining her expensive bright red clothes.
"Don't you feel embarrassed? Think it's not a place for people to live at all? Xiao Cangsheng turned back to Liu Yingying while cutting vegetables. With the smiling knife work, you can cut the vegetables even with your eyes closed, but this is a bit frightening to ordinary people.
"No, I just didn't expect there to be such a humble place in the world." Liu Yingying looked intently at Xiao Cangsheng's busy back and said.
Xiao Cangsheng glanced up at Liu Yingying and said, "This place is not shabby to me at all. In fact, for people like us, as long as there is a shelter from the wind and rain, and three meals a day can be eaten, it is already very good. In fact, this place is quite good, and in some places, I still live in thatched houses. It was raining heavily outside and light rain inside the house; The scorching sun outside, the starry light in the house, you may not have heard of these. As for food, leftovers and dregs are considered staple foods, and it is common for them to be hungry. In fact, in this society, there are still many people who have eaten the last meal but not the next. You may not even be able to imagine these things. ”
Laughing at Cangsheng's words, Liu Yingying was shocked. She didn't expect that in this prosperous modern society, there would be such a poor place. She did not have the slightest doubt about the authenticity of Xiao Cangsheng's words, because she saw the heartache in Xiao Cangsheng's eyes, the helplessness of social reality, and the miserable life of the struggling people at the bottom of the society.
During the period after that, there was no noise in the whole kitchen except for the sound of laughing and stir-frying. Xiao Cangsheng remembered the miserable life of the people in the radiation area, and was in no mood to speak anymore. Liu Yingying was shocked because of the words of the laughing people. For 20 years, she has been living in the palm of her parents' hands, living a comfortable life with clothes to reach out and food to open her mouth. I have never experienced the taste of having a meal without a meal, let alone a life without clothes.
During the time when Liu Yingying was stunned, Xiao Cangsheng had already prepared the meal, and served the cooked meal to the 'table', and this 'table' was still ordered by Xiao Cangsheng by himself.
"What are you thinking? Don't come over for dinner yet? Looking at Liu Yingying, who was still there in a daze, laughed and shouted.
Hearing Xiao Cangsheng's shout, Liu Yingying came back to her senses. Slowly walked to the 'table', looking at a few home-cooked dishes on the 'table', Liu Yingying smelled the tempting fragrance, and had an appetite but no mood to eat.
"Hurry up and eat, aren't you hungry? Or are these dishes not to your taste? Looking at Liu Yingying, who had not moved her chopsticks for a long time, Xiao Cangsheng was puzzled.
"After listening to your words, I don't have the mood to eat anymore." Liu Yingying said in a depressed mood, and the words of Xiaocang Sheng touched her a lot. also made her understand that the world world is not as beautiful as she thought.
"People are iron, rice is steel, if you don't eat a meal, you are hungry! Even if there is a big thing, you must fill your stomach first, so that you can have the strength to do what you want to do. If there's anything, wait until you're full and then worry about it slowly. Xiao Cangsheng comforted Liu Yingying while eating.
Liu Yingying looked up at Xiao Cangsheng, and then picked up the bowl to eat. Although these meals were delicious, they didn't taste at all in Liu Yingying's mouth. The only feeling Liu Yingying feels when she eats her meal now is bitterness, a bitterness that is hard to swallow.
Looking at Liu Yingying, who was frowning and eating there, Xiao Cangsheng sighed, he didn't know that his words had such a big feeling for Liu Yingying. If I knew that Lu Dao was like this, I wouldn't have said that to her.
"What do you say is the ultimate purpose of human life?" Liu Yingying, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked.
"Huh?" In the face of Liu Yingying's sudden question, Xiao Cangsheng was really a little uncomfortable, and after thinking about it, he replied: "I think the ultimate purpose of human life is to eat!" You can live without a house, you can do without clothes, but you can't go without eating. All things are based on the premise of solving the problem of food and clothing. For example, people who watch movies in movie theaters, if they don't even have their own food and clothing, and live a life with no last meal, then who still has the energy to go to the movies. You say yes, right? ”
After listening to Xiao Cangsheng's words, Liu Yingying didn't say anything more, she just buried her head in eating alone, and she didn't even pick up the dishes. After settling the rice in the bowl in three or two clicks, Liu Yingying got up and said goodbye. Come with joy and return with joy! Looking at Liu Yingying's distant back, Xiao Cangsheng vowed never to talk about this topic in front of girls again.
After lunch, Xiao Cangsheng didn't go to the library again, because he was no longer in the mood to read a book. Lying on the bed alone, thinking about how to go on his own path after solving the matter of Long Wu. Before he knew it, he fell asleep, and it wasn't until Tang Xin called him to scold him that he realized that it was dusk, and it turned out that he had slept for four or five hours unconsciously.
After getting some food early to treat his stomach, Xiao Cangsheng went out wearing the fifteen yuan piece of clothes he bought at the stall. The main reason is that his beggar outfit full of patches can't be worn out at all, and as soon as he wears it out, the chengguan will come to find trouble for him, saying that he affects the city's appearance. The most annoying smile was so annoying that he could only reluctantly cut his love and buy a few cheap clothes and pants.
It's been a week since I came to BJ, and Xiao Cangsheng hasn't officially come out to visit BJ's night market. Nightlife at night can reflect the security environment of a city. Walking on the brightly lit streets, Xiao Cangsheng realized that BJ's nightlife was actually attended by so many people. Looking at the streets where people come and go, Xiao Cangsheng constantly sighed in his heart - there are so many people in BJ!
When night falls, the lights come on, and in this scorching summer, only when the night comes, those who live at home will come out to breathe. After a busy day's work, you can only stop and relax at night.
Xiao Cangsheng walked aimlessly on the street, looking at the dwindling flow of people, Xiao Cangsheng realized that he had been wandering the streets of this cosmopolitan city for several hours. A metropolis is a metropolis, and the security environment is always so good. After wandering around for so long, Xiao Cangsheng did not find a single criminal case. Of course, Xiao Cangsheng is not only wandering on the streets, but even those remote and dark alleys, he has also gone in to appreciate their style.
However, there are no absolutes in the world, and even in the metropolis where the public security environment is good, there are still criminal cases. No, when Xiao Cangsheng was just about to go home, a cry for help came into Xiao Cangsheng's ears. With the psychology that more things are better than less, Xiao Cangsheng didn't plan to take care of this idle matter, he was not a saint, and he didn't have the obligation to save the world. It's just that the cry of despair for help made Xiao Cangsheng's chivalrous heart beat that had not yet been extinguished.
Xiao Cangsheng sighed helplessly, and quickly ran towards the source of the sound. Since you plan to take care of this idle matter, don't let the victim get a little damage, otherwise it will be useless to manage this idle matter.
Xiao Cangsheng soon came to the scene of the incident, and the scene imprinted in his eyes made Xiao Cangsheng's eyes shrink, this does not seem to be an ordinary crime case. On this somewhat remote quiet street, two tall men in black walked towards a black Audi A6 with a little girl who was constantly struggling and screaming, and the panic and despair cries for help came from the little girl's mouth.
Diagonally opposite the Audi A6, a BMW flipped over there. Next to the BMW, several bodyguard-like people fell to the ground motionless, and their necks were already deformed, and it seemed that their necks were directly twisted. Looking at the impact marks on the BMW body and the broken headlights on the front end of the Audi A6, Xiao Cangsheng kept sighing in his heart that rich people are different, and such a good car will be used to crash casually. How can this Audi A6 knock over a BMW? Xiao Cangsheng glanced at the Audi A6 carefully, and then understood what was going on, it turned out to be a modified car.
"Stop! Let go of that girl! Looking at the little girl, who was about to be put on the car, Xiao Cangsheng lowered his voice without hesitation and stopped him. While talking, he also covered his face so as not to get into trouble after being seen.
"Help! Uncle, help! The little girl who was being held on the frame turned her head and shouted when she heard the sound of laughter.
Uncle? Xiao Cangsheng touched his nose depressedly, is he so old? It was only at this time that Xiao Cangsheng glanced at it and saw the appearance of the little girl who was being held, this is another disaster-level character, Xiao Cangsheng muttered in his heart. Why is his luck so good, any one he meets is a big beauty. This girl is not a child as she thinks, she is just a little petite, and compared to the two tall men in black who are holding her, of course she will think she is a child.
"I advise your Excellency not to meddle in your affairs, it will not do you any good." One of the big men in black said to Xiao Cangsheng.
"Huh! You said that this is a nosy business, and since it is a nosy business, it must be no good to take it. Besides, don't you two Ben Neng cultivators feel ashamed to kidnap a little girl who has no power to tie a chicken? Xiao Cangsheng said in a deep voice.
Listening to Xiao Cangsheng's words, the two black-clothed men looked at him with solemn and vigilant faces. The people who can break through the fact that they are benzene cultivators are definitely not ordinary people. Seeing that Xiao Cangsheng didn't have the slightest idea of making a move, the two big men in black watched vigilantly as Xiao Cangsheng slowly walked towards the Audi A6.
"If you go one step further, I'm going to do it!" Xiao Cangsheng looked at the two and said calmly.
The two black-clothed men were stunned when they heard this, and then said with a wry smile: "I don't know what Your Excellency wants?" ”
"Let the little girl go, and I'll let you go. Since I can tell you that you are a Benzene cultivator, it proves that my strength is much higher than you. "If you can't do it, you won't do it, this is the consistent style of laughing at Cangsheng.
The two men in black thought for a moment before saying with a wry smile: "It's okay to let this girl go, but Your Excellency should come up with a reason that convinces us." ”
As soon as the man in black's words fell, he was shocked to see that Xiao Cangsheng had already floated in the air at some point. The little girl who was held by two big men in black also opened her mouth wide when she looked at the smile floating in the air, she may have never seen anyone float out of thin air.
"The kid has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, I hope the seniors will forgive me." The two big men in black put down the little girl, bent down and said to Xiao Cangsheng in fear. To be able to float in the air, at least a high-level benzene cultivator can do it, that is, at least seven carbon chains. These two rookies with two carbon chains are a scum in front of this senior.
"Let's go! I told you that as long as you let that little girl go, I would let you go. Xiao Cangsheng still said to the two black-clothed men in a flat tone.
"Thank you seniors for not killing! Thank you for not killing your predecessors! The two black-clothed men bowed their waists and thanked Xiao Cangsheng for their kindness, and after finishing speaking, they drove the Audi A6 and left in a hurry.
