During the days of migration with the homeless people, Xiao Hulila learned how to orient herself at night, how to build a campfire, and how to sleep in the field so that she could not be bitten by snakes...... I haven't learned anything before.

The brother and sister brother are called Jiang Cong, and the younger sister is called Jiang Lin, whose nickname is Lin'er. Although because of her parents, Lin'er didn't give Xiao Weili a good face at first. But the young man is a young man after all, and he has been much better these days, and he has begun to teach him some common sense in the wild.

At night, Li Wen often came to chat with Xiao Lila. Although he voluntarily migrated with this group of people, he spent his days with these farmers who could not read a few words. After a long time, there is no one who can speak, so it is inevitably a little boring. And from the first time he saw Xiao Li, he knew that in addition to life experience, this young man's knowledge has far surpassed that of his peers, and he is by no means comparable to those gentlemen who only know how to eat, drink and have fun. So I love to chat with him.

"Haven't they tried to ask the magistrate for a tax exemption this year?"

When talking about the reason why the people had to migrate, Xiao Weili asked strangely.

"Magistrate? In these years, the army is in chaos, how can the power of the magistrates be as great as those village elders? ”

"Then, the imperial court was short of financial resources, the Song people came to take advantage of the fire to rob, coupled with the continuous natural disasters, unable to relieve the people, and the power of the local gentry was too great. This should be the main reason for the mass migration of displaced people. ”

Li Wen was no surprise to him for such a precise insight into the political situation.

"That's right for now. However, in a peaceful year, will the life of the people be better? ”

"Huh? How so? Everyone expects peace and prosperity, right? ”

"Wang Gongzi, although you have far more knowledge than your peers, you are still too naïve."

If in the past, hearing such comments, Xiao Lila would definitely be furious. But the experience of these few days made his temperament much calmer, so he quietly waited for Li Wen's next words.

"In fact, whether it is troubled times or ruling the world, those who do not have a sword in their hands will be slaughtered by those who hold a sword. It's just a different form. ”

"How is this possible!?" Xiao Lila couldn't help but argue, "There is a law when governing the world, and the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people......"

"Hahahaha......" Li Wen's laughter interrupted Xiao Lila's words, "Prince Wang, do you really believe that the laws of those who wield swords are equal?" ”

Li Wen stood up and threw the branch in his hand towards the fire, the flames turning his swarthy face purple red.

"For thousands of years, no matter which dynasty or generation. There are only a few people who can give orders in the imperial city, and this world is their family's world. No matter how powerful the dynasty may have been in the beginning, they will corrupt and degenerate in all the power of life and death. Then came the troubled times, and careerists rose to the occasion. In the name of saving the people from fire and water, they fought for the supreme power, and finally became corrupt again. The world is circulating back and forth in this chaotic world. The suffering of the people has never ended. ”

After saying this in one breath, Li Wen's thin body was obviously a little unbearable. He sat down again, gasping softly.

"Doesn't anyone want to change that?" Xiao Lila handed Li Wen a glass of water and asked.

"How can there not be such heroes for thousands of years?" Li Wen shook his head, "But they all failed, because the original ideal, swallowed up by their own ambitions or by the ambitions of the people around them, finally went back to the old way." ”

Looking at Li Wen, who was a little depressed, Xiao Weili laughed: "I didn't expect that the master is not only knowledgeable, but also cares so much about the suffering of the people in this world!" ”

Li Wen was stunned for a moment, and also laughed: "Haha, but I just feel it, and I still said it to a friend in the past." ”

Then the two deliberately avoided such topics, talked about inconsequential things and went to sleep.

However, Xiao Lila couldn't sleep, he looked up at the starry sky.

"No matter what kind of era, it is always the people who suffer......

People, this word is just a noun for him, a child of a family who has had no worries about food and clothing since childhood. Farmers, merchants, craftsmen, everything without an official position can be called a common people. This is the literal meaning of the people. Only in the past few days, I have lived with Jiang Cong, Lin'er, and many people who are as poor as them. It was from these living, flesh-and-blood people who struggled to survive that he truly understood the meaning of the word.

But what if you get it? I'm just a kid of a family who is arrogant and afraid of death. It's just that they weren't stupid enough to think they could change their fate.

"But there's one thing I can do."

Yes, no matter how incompetent he is, there is still something he can do. For example, it can make the siblings live a better life.

But......

"Horse thief! The horse thief is coming! ”

Someone in front of them screamed, the ranks began to disorganize, and people began to run backwards. It is a long, narrow road with steep cliffs on both sides. The unknown people in the back collided with the people who ran back, and there were countless falls.

A moment later, Xiao Lila saw those beastly and ferocious people. His mind went blank for a moment, and the blood of that night rushed up, holding his feet firmly on the ground.

"Run, wait for death!" As soon as Lin'er pulled Xiao Lila's hand, the illusion disappeared, and the two and Jiang Cong began to desperately flee in the opposite direction.

The sound of horses' hooves behind him was getting closer and closer, and Xiao Lila could even hear the sound of a long knife cutting through the air. People were constantly being cut down all around, and the deathbed's screams filled his eardrums. He clutched Lin'er's hand tightly, thinking of nothing in his head, just driven by fear, running desperately.

"Hahahaha......, run, run, let's have a good time!" One of the horse thieves had a scar on his face, and he laughed, his long knife constantly slashing at the unarmed people.

"No, we can't outrun them!" Jiang Cong suddenly stopped, "Prince Wang, my sister will bother you to take care of it in the future!" ”

Before the two of them could understand what was going on, Jiang Cong brandished his scythe and turned around and threw himself at the horse thief.

"Brother!"

"Brother Jiang!"

The two exclaimed, and Xiao Lila turned around and was about to follow, but was caught by Lin'er.

"Run! Stupid, do you want my brother to die in vain?! ”

Xiao Weili was stunned for a moment, and then pulled the girl with tears in her eyes to continue to flee for her life.

"Brother Jiang, I will definitely protect Lin'er, even if it is with my life!" Xiao Lila swore silently in his heart.

Running alone will definitely not outrun the horse thief's horse. So Xiao Lila took advantage of the chaos and Lin'er to find a boulder and hide behind.
