This scene can't help but make Long Qingquan a little soft-hearted, where are these children the bad people who do all kinds of evil as the masses say, they are clearly a group of poor little beggars who have no food to eat, and can only steal chickens and dogs for a living.

Long Qingquan felt pity, but he saw that the people around him rushed forward one after another as if they had seen rats crossing the street, and scolded while beating some people: "These thieves have thrown themselves into the net one by one. ”

Sun Tong was surrounded in the middle, and his mind was blurred when he was beaten just now, but he was already sober at the moment, and when he saw his own people being beaten, he shouted: "One of you beats my younger brothers and sisters individually, and you have the ability to beat me, and you are your mother, and you beat Lao Tzu." Seeing that the children around him were still beaten, Sun Tong shouted: "What are you doing here, run, run." ”

But at this moment, where can they still run, they are wrapped in three layers inside and three layers outside, even if they have wings, it is difficult to fly, Long Qingquan couldn't bear to be even bigger in his heart, and stepped forward to stop him: "Don't kill people, it's almost enough." ”

Everyone had enough of the evil fire in their hearts, and they stopped their hands one after another, Long Qingquan looked at Sun Tong and asked, "Your name is Sun Tong, why do you want to steal things, and why do you want to speak wildly." ”

Sun Tong didn't buy Long Qingquan's account at all, Zhang Tu was furious and rushed up and gave Sun Tong two slaps, scolding while beating: "You ** thing, you don't know how to rely on people, this master says good things for you, you kid is still like this, you really don't know how to lift up." ”

A toddler hugged Butcher Zhang's thigh and cried, "Don't hit my eldest brother." Long Qingquan asked the young child, "Then why do you say you are stealing?" ”

The young boy didn't want to say anything, but when he saw that Zhang Tu was going to beat Sun Tong again, he said, "We are hungry." Long Qingquan's heart was sour, tears almost fell, and he asked again in one breath: "Then why did you have to speak wildly when you were caught." ”

The young boy raised his pure eyes and looked at Long Qingquan and replied: "Because I am afraid, the people who were caught earlier have not gotten up yet, they urinate blood every day, and three or four have been beaten to death, and those who are sent to the government have no good end, and the older ones who are in good health are sold to the kiln factory to work as coolies, and people of my grade are generally secretly killed in order not to disturb the people, anyway, no one is looking for us, even if they disappear, they will not know the ghosts, we are afraid, we will retaliate against them, so that they are afraid that we will not arrest us." As he spoke, the child began to cry,

Long Qingquan was shocked in his heart, and glanced at everyone with a sharp gaze, everyone didn't dare to look at him, they lowered their heads one after another, Long Qingquan said fiercely: "What he said is true, you really killed a few people, and the government really did it." ”

Someone on the side said: "But they steal things" Before he finished speaking, he was glared back coldly by Long Qingquan, and no longer dared to speak, Long Qingquan was furious and shouted: "They just lost their lives by stealing something, and I, Long Qingquan, will not allow such an unfair thing to happen again." Saying that, Long Qingquan pulled up Sun Tong and the others and was about to leave, although the surrounding people were afraid of Long Qingquan, but no one gave in, they still firmly formed a human wall to block the way.

Long Qingquan shouted, "Get out of the way." Zhang Tu spoke behind Long Qingquan: "Son, please stay and listen to me." Long Qingquan looked back, he didn't expect that such a vulgar butcher Zhang could also say such a crepe thing, Zhang butcher saw Long Qingquan stand up and said: "Although you are reasonable, for the sake of this money, you will not ask for the name of these thieves, but you have to say it at both ends, you look at the son of a big family, naturally you don't know the suffering of the common people, and you don't know the cost of firewood, rice, oil and salt. The pork leg he stole is five or six days of profit, without these what we eat, we do business early and greedy for darkness is not to earn this small profit, I can't eat and have to close the business, I take advantage of a few family funds, maybe not starve to death, what do these young guys eat, what do they use, they also have an old lady at home, these thieves not only harm my family, you ask who in our town has not been stolen by them, where are they stealing food, it is simply stealing our lives. ”

When the people heard this, Long Qingquan was speechless, although he didn't know the hard work of ordinary people, but seeing that Zhang Tu's words didn't seem to be false, he didn't have an idea for a while.

Long Qingquan thought about it for a while and asked Sun Tong: "Why don't you work to make money, even if you don't have anything to eat, isn't there a porridge under the Hongluo Temple, you can eat a full meal wherever you go, why steal things." ”

Sun Tong opened his mouth to answer at this moment, only to hear him say: "Work, it is difficult for locals to find a job, not to mention us people, and even if we find it, only a few of us can have food, who will raise those brothers who are paralyzed in bed, who will raise these small children present, even if they find a job, is the salary enough to support them, as for the porridge shop, I Sun Tong also know that the master surnamed Lu is a good person, but I know a sentence more, gentlemen don't eat food that comes from us, and we steal things and eat by craftsmanship, not ashamed, It is not unjust to be caught and killed. ”

Saying that, the teenagers and young children shouted in unison: "I don't want to be born on the same day and month of the same year, but I want to be born on the same day of the same month and month of the same year, and it is worth dying together." The immature child's voice said such an oath with pride, but it couldn't help but make people's hearts sour.

Long Qingquan looked at Sun Tong and sighed: "You kid has backbone and righteousness, but you don't use it in the right place." "I wanted to educate Sun Tong, but I can think about Sun Tong's words, neither eat porridge nor work, what can I do except steal things, and then look at the people on the street next to me and feel that what they said is reasonable, Long Qingquan has no idea,

It was when he was at a loss, a few officials came, and the people didn't dare to provoke the officials and leaned aside, listening to Zhang Tu talk about the reason for the matter, an official looked Long Qingquan up and down, thinking that he didn't know that he was the son of that big family, not only thinking about it but also being reasonable, otherwise he wouldn't stand here ambiguously,

More is better than less, the official didn't ask Long Qingquan, just didn't see him, took the shackles and ropes and took away a group of thieves, Long Qingquan opened his mouth but didn't say anything, he didn't know what to say,

Lu Yunzhi walked out of the corner and patted Long Qingquan on the shoulder, Long Qingquan turned around, muttered to himself with a puzzled face: "What they said is right, but what's wrong with this world, why am I getting more and more unable to see through it." ”

Lu Yunzhi nodded with a smile and said, "This is exactly the reason why I asked you to see it, the world is an incomprehensible world." ”
