Chapter 492: Acts of Generosity
After that, Mu Yan had already run into the rain, and when he saw him like this, the boss shook his head and was a little helpless.
After going back and taking the rice again, Mu Yan couldn't take the rest of the things in his hands.
He thought about it, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to take other things alone, so it was better to go back and put these down before making plans.
Thinking so, Mu Yan walked towards the broken temple in the east of the city.
He had just reached the temple gate when he heard a noisy noise coming from inside, which sounded like a quarrel.
hurriedly walked in, only to see that it was the person who had been embarrassed by him earlier, who was pulling the old man's collar.
"Lao Tzu has already said, hurry up and hand over the ingot of silver, it's not your money."
I saw that the old man was not in a hurry, and said without hurry: "But this money is not Your Excellency's, if you want to change yourself to earn it openly." ”
"What a fart you have! I'll tell you one last time, if you don't give it to me, you will bear the consequences! ”
Looking at this man's fierce look, the people around him finally couldn't look at it, and saw that they all formed a circle and surrounded the two of them in the middle.
"What Uncle Yan said makes sense, although we are all beggars, we are not without dignity, if you want money, you can ask for it yourself, what are you doing here to rob others?"
Seeing that they were arguing so fiercely, Mu Yan didn't make a sound, he put the bag of rice and oil-paper umbrella in the corner on the side, and then stood behind and listened.
For some reason, I always felt that this old man did not look like a poor beggar.
In order to verify his guess, Mu Yan decided not to take any action.
All of a sudden, everyone began to criticize the man, and seeing that he aroused the anger of the crowd, the man was also faintly afraid in his heart.
But he didn't want to lose the battle after all, and said: "You all shout so much, but this silver is not yours, and it has nothing to do with you?" ”
He loosened the old man's collar, and then shouted, "Don't force me one by one, or it won't be good for me to do something to you." ”
As he spoke, he suddenly drew a dagger from his waist, and when he saw this, everyone closed their mouths and did not dare to speak.
This person is usually not a very decent person, but he didn't expect that now he only owes a little money.
Then someone in the crowd said, "In that case, why don't you give him that little money?" Otherwise, he might not know what to do. ”
Now that his goal has been achieved, the man is very proud, but he never thinks that he only feels that his arm suddenly goes numb, and the knife falls to the ground.
Then someone in the crowd rushed up and kicked the dagger away.
After he had nothing in his hand, the rest of the people rushed up directly to hold him down, and said, "We all gathered here when we were desperate, but you are doing this now!" ”
"yes, get out of here, you're not welcome here."
Everyone blamed him, and this man became a rat crossing the street for a while, and everyone shouted and beat him.
Mu Yan frowned when he saw this, although he felt that according to this person's character, it was very likely that he would be bad after leaving.
It seems that the people in this ruined temple are not less angry with him during this time.
How could Mu Yan be generous to others? So he just stood in the corner without saying a word.
Seeing that the situation was not right, the man pushed away the crowd and ran away from the door.
Everyone scattered around, only then did they notice that Mu Yan had returned, and the old man took the lead in standing up and gave Mu Yan the ingot of silver.
"Today's weather, the rain is so heavy, I guess you can't go out to beg, I just bought a bag of rice, and I saw that you have a pot, so cook it and drink it."
With that, he took out the bag of rice in the corner.
For a while, everyone looked at each other, but no one stepped forward, and they were quite upset in their hearts.
Although the man was the first to say those words earlier, at that time, the rest of the people were worried that Mu Yan would just leave.
Unexpectedly, he went out to buy a bag of rice for everyone and came back, how could they bear such kindness?
It is precisely because he is so generous in repaying grievances with virtue that everyone feels even more empty-hearted.
Although the adults did not dare to speak, the children were already hungry enough, and now they all ran out when they saw this bag of rice.
You must know that in the past, they may only be able to get a few dried steamed buns a day.
If you are lucky, you can get a few silver coins, but I don't know how long you can save to afford a few grains of rice.
Not to mention seeing this big bag, white flowers, rice, which I have never seen in my life.
"Is this really for us?"
Several children were a little incredulous, and raised their heads to look at Mu Yan with wide eyes.
"yes, aren't you all hungry and haven't eaten yet? The rain won't stop for a while, and if you can't fill your stomach, you'll get cold. ”
He said as he opened the rice bag.
"Hurry up and put this in the pot and boil some porridge to drink!"
The children looked at each other a few times, then looked at the adults again, and when they saw that no one was talking, they ran over and brought the pot.
Mu Yan was not stingy, and poured half a pot of rice.
Only then did he stand up and say: "In the current troubled times, everyone is living extremely difficult, although I am not a rich and noble person, I can't just sit idly by.
Since everyone is fortunate enough to be under the same roof, don't be polite to me, the children can't stand to be hungry, not to mention that I see that some of them have been coughing. ”
Hearing his words, the crowd slowly moved.
secretly said in his heart, even if he really had a bad intention, they would eat this meal and be a full ghost.
Seeing that they took the initiative to get something, Mu Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he said: "If this rain can't stop for a while, I think it's going to be cold tonight." If you are in good health, a few people go to the forest behind to collect some firewood.
Although it had rained overnight, the firewood was already drenched. But I'll go out later to see if there is any firewood in the broken house, and it will be usable to light it when the time comes. ”
Maybe it was because he gave the rice, and after saying this, several people also listened to him and nodded.
Mu Yan opened his mouth and said, "I brought back a few coats just now, if you want to go out, you will put them on." ”
Then he said no more, and walked up to the old man.
He said directly: "I see that senior, you don't seem to be the one who stays here and begs?" If I'm not mistaken, these people were very focused on you. ”
Otherwise, when this old man was threatened just now, everyone would not have stood up so excitedly and took the initiative to speak for him.
In addition, when no one dared to come to get rice, it was also the old man's eyes that signaled.
Hearing this, his slightly closed eyes slowly opened.
"What about you? I've been here for two days now, but I don't seem to be able to live here. ”
Mu Yan smiled when he heard this, this old man is really as wise as a torch, and if he hides it by himself, if he shows his feet, it will arouse suspicion.
Therefore, he nodded, directly and generously admitted, and then said: "The reason why I live here is naturally because of my troubles.
Presumably you're just like me, and you've probably not been in this ruined temple for too long, right?
Mu Yan said as he looked at the old man's clothes, although they were dirty and messy, they were far more worn out than the rest of the people.
"You're a smart man, and it seems that you don't have any bad intentions, so this is a secret between the two of us."
Hearing this, Mu Yan nodded before speaking, but he noticed some details.
It wasn't until after the conversation that I realized that this old man was not from Kyoto, and he had a strong accent in the conversation.
Mu Yan lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and said, "Since you have been here for a while, I believe you know more about these people.
Please appoint me a few reliable people, for it is so cold at night, and it may not be enough to rely on their clothes to keep them warm. ”
When the old man heard this, a trace of surprise crossed his eyes: "You have already given them rice to eat, and now you want to continue to help them?" ”
Mu Yan shook his head: "I can't talk about helping, I just do my best to contribute, I have the ability." ”
Originally, the old man's eyes were not shocked, but after hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed, and he began to face Mu Yan squarely.
However, Mu Yan wore a hat, covering his face tightly, and he never showed any of it.
After a moment, the old man sighed and turned his head.
"The few people sitting over there are pretty reliable, but there aren't any vicious people here other than the one just now."
Unexpectedly, he also knew it in his heart, so Mu Yan said: "Since you have the ability to let him leave here, presumably when he comes back, he can also protect the people here, right?" ”
The old man smiled: "You are shrewd, you actually saw that I threw the stone?" ”
"Where, your hand speed is extremely fast, I'm just guessing."
Unexpectedly, he was actually lying to himself, and the old man shook his head.
Compared to the hostility he had towards him when he first arrived, it had now all turned into curiosity and kindness.
Only then did Mu Yan stand up and walk in front of the people that the old man had said.
said: "There are some things that need a few help, I don't know how many are willing?" ”
He didn't say what it was, Mu Yan didn't want to be in the limelight.
There is a certain truth in the so-called wealth not being revealed, although he has the ability to protect these, but he is afraid of thieves.
Hearing this, the people only hesitated slightly, and then nodded in unison.
"It's okay to say anything, as long as we can help, we will help."
They were very righteous, and Mu Yan said, "Take the oil-paper umbrella over there and go to a place with me." ”
Several people stood up directly, and then took the oil-paper umbrella.
