Compared to the clean and magnificent Shanyuan Street, the environment here is dirty and messy.

There are all kinds of domestic garbage everywhere, and the small shops or residential areas on both sides of the road are all interpreting three words - dirty, messy, and poor!

It's like two sides of the city. One side is glamorous, the other side is dark and cramped. There is a world of difference between the two sides.

This is the first time Hua Yueling has seen such a scene in her life, she has been accustomed to living a life of brocade clothes and jade food since she was a child, and she never thought that there was such a place in this world.

Empty-eyed beggars lie here, with an endless sense of disappointment in life, they are alive, but in fact they are dead.

There's one word to describe them, it's lingering.

"Hey, you're a bit lucky, this place happens to be one of the most broken places here. Wu Liang smiled and said, "Normally, no one comes here to beg. But it's also our home base. Usually we all rest here, and the place to beg is a little in front of the street. ”

Wu Liang walked forward with Hua Yueling.

The beggars lying on the ground in front of them struggled to move their bodies and make way for Wu Liang and the two of them.

They were gorgeously dressed and were obviously not something that ordinary people could afford to wear. The beggars did not dare to offend them.

Hua Yueling cautiously let them go, and followed behind Wu Liang step by step.

When we arrived at the place almost at the corner of the street, the environment here was a little better, and ordinary people in coarse linen clothes walked around here. From time to time, beggars rush up to beg, and generally they are able to have a good harvest. Or a steamed bun or a copper plate. After all, there are still many kind-hearted people in this world.

Hua Yueling and Wu Liang stood in the crowd, because they were richly dressed, but there were no beggars to harass them.

Wu Liang took Hua Yueling to a wall, pointed to a corner there, and said, "This is where I used to beg." ”

This place has long been occupied by other beggars, and the beggar huddled here, and when he saw Wu Liang and the two of them coming, he didn't move, but just looked at them with some fear.

From those clear eyes, it can be seen that this person is still very young, and he still has hope for life.

Not as hollow as other people's eyes.

Wu Liang ignored him, but Hua Yueling was a little sympathetic, and took out a piece of silver barley from his bosom and put it in the bowl in front of the beggar.

Wu Liang discovered Hua Yueling's movements, and was about to stop it, but it was too late.

The boy had hidden the silver in his bosom.

"You shouldn't be like this. Wu Liang shook his head and said, "You're hurting him like this." ”

"Hurt him?" Hua Yueling was a little puzzled.

Wu Liang didn't speak, just left this place with Hua Yueling.

In a hidden corner, Wu Liang and Hua Yueling were looking at the corner.

"Just look at it. ”

After Wu Liang and the two of them walked away, several beggars who had been in another part of the wall stood up and walked towards the child.

They said a few words, because they were too far away for Hua Yueling to hear what they were talking about.

All she saw was the child shaking his head.

Then the beggars pushed the child to the ground, and after a flurry of punches and kicks, they took out the silver barley from the child and walked away satisfied.

Hua Yueling looked at Wu Liang strangely, he wanted to move before, but was stopped by Wu Liang.

"That's human nature. Wu Liang said to Hua Yueling, he didn't know why he wanted to say these things, but at this moment he wanted to tell Hua Yueling these things.

Maybe it's been suppressed for too long.

He fused the memories of that Wu Liang from before. Those things have become his experience, and he is a good thinker, so he always wants to say something to others.

"The so-called human nature is that people face some things and make their own choices. The essence of human beings is actually a combination of the characteristics of many animals. Including the evil side of insidious and cunning, and the good side of kindness and gentleness. The law of the jungle actually applies to human beings as well. It's so normal!"

Wu Liang paused, organized his language, and then said, "Actually, when I was a beggar, I experienced this more than once. If you give alms to this beggar, the other beggars will feel uncomfortable, and they can do anything to survive, so what is the point of simply snatching? When a person has no other pursuit than survival, the power that can burst out is actually very powerful. ”

Hua Yueling didn't quite understand what Wu Liang said. But looking at what these beggars were doing, she seemed to understand something.

We cannot simply distinguish between good and evil, because good and evil also have to be divided. Wu Liang came to a conclusion about this matter, which was also the final conclusion he reached after synthesizing everything he had experienced.

This group of people lives at the bottom of the world, and in their worldview values, there is no good or evil, only the instinct to survive like those animals.

"Then what should we do?" asked Wu Liang.

"Look at me. ”

Wu Liang stepped forward and came back to the child's side.

Looking at him covered in bruises, he asked, "Do you blame us?"

The kid raised his head and looked at Wu Liang, looked at this person who was not much older than him, and said, "I can't complain to you about this matter. You just don't know what to do. ”

"Then what do you say should be done?" Wu Liang looked at him with a smile.

The boy seemed to realize something, he sat up with difficulty, and said, "If it were me, I wouldn't give me so much, give one or two copper plates, and they wouldn't say anything." ”

"Looks like you can see it quite well. Wu Liang said with a smile.

"In this world, if you don't understand it, I don't think I'll live so much. ”

Wu Liang was silent for a while, and said, "If the silver barley just now hadn't been snatched away, what would have happened to you?"

There was a gleam in the child's eyes, and he was keenly aware that this was an opportunity, and if he could satisfy the person in front of him, he might be able to get out of his current life!

"If I had that piece of silver, I would never continue to be a beggar, I would have a good meal, a change of clothes, and a job on the street. The kid said calmly, "I've worked hard, and I'm sure I'll be better than I am now!"

"Do you really think you can do that?"

"I'm pretty sure!" the kid nodded heavily!!

"What's your name?"

"Chen Ning!"
