Chapter 491: The Old Man and Death
The big man rudely pushed the middle-aged woman aside, if it wasn't for a man next to her, the middle-aged woman would have fallen to the ground.
"Thank you, thank you." The woman clasped the man's arm with both hands and thanked him incessantly.
"Can you lend me something?" I'll give it back to you later. The woman looked at the man in front of her with some pleading, with hope in her eyes.
The man shook his head, "I don't have much money on me, and I don't know if it's enough." I'm sorry. ”
When the woman heard this, she lowered her head and pulled out a somewhat reluctant smile at the corner of her mouth, "Thank you." Squeezed aside, and looked at the young man in a suit and leather shoes next to him with an elite face.
The elite man tilted his head to the side and did not speak.
The woman swept past some of the older and younger, and the ones who turned to them were middle-aged or young people who seemed to be more successful.
It wasn't until the tenth middle-aged woman asked for help that she got a necklace. This necklace looks like it's worth hundreds of thousands.
The woman kept thanking and thanking her, and the smile on her face widened and became more real.
Hundreds of thousands of people on the starship, she should be able to get together. In the future, when I return home, I will have to pay off the money I borrowed from relatives and friends as soon as possible.
The woman thought so, and she felt that the watch was a good sign.
Lan Ruyu was in the middle and back, a group of people were crowded, your breath hit my neck, and my breath was spit behind your ear.
People are next to each other, and they can't be crowded.
Except for Fez who was sitting on a high place and a few fierce star thieves, Lan Ruyu could almost only see everyone's heads, and couldn't see the situation at the front at all.
Although the ship is not fully occupied, and the occupancy rate is still a little low, there are hundreds of thousands of people.
If everyone wants to take out their belongings, even if more than 100 people pay them together, one minute for each person, it will take more than 20 hours.
Although there will be some gaps between the calculation and reality, it will take twenty hours for this group of people to hand over their belongings.
It couldn't be less.
Twenty hours was not enough hours for the Federal Patrol to search for it, but twenty hours ...... Maybe it's not enough for Shen Panchi to come over...
Lan Qiyu was a little worried.
If this group of star thieves simply robbed the money, they could claim it back when the time came, for fear of causing trouble.
The minutes ticked by.
An old man in ragged clothes walked slowly forward.
"Hurry up, hurry up, rub what? There are so many people lining up in the back?! The big man yelled impatiently.
The old man nodded busily, stretching out his twig-like hand to grab it at the terminal.
A plastic basket, a pair of iron chopsticks, and an old cotton coat that was washed white, and the old man was still touching it.
Dahan was very annoyed when he saw these broken things.
When the old man took out a watch, the big man immediately snatched it. The old man refused to let go, and as soon as the big man exerted his strength, the old man was pushed to the ground.
"Bang-"
The old watch that the two men were fighting over slammed against the wooden floor, making a crashing sound.
The old man hurriedly crawled over from the ground with some difficulty, and just as he was about to reach out and pick up the watch, he cast a shadow. A pair of boots stepped on the skin-covered arm that looked like a scarred old tree root.
Some crooked calloused fingers hooked forward, hooking like a small rake towards the watch.
The big man squatted down, and almost all the weight of hundreds of catties on his body was pressed on the foot that stepped on the old man's arm.
The old man's mouth opened and closed, and he made a cry of "yaa", like the rustle of leaves blown by the wind at night, and the hoarse was a little sharp because of the severe pain.
I can't say a complete sentence.
The big man picked up the old watch, threw it in the air and shook it twice, but didn't feel any quality. looked at this watch with disdain, "What kind of broken thing, like a baby?" ”
The big man's foot trampled on the old man's arm like a stick, rolled back and forth, and finally felt that it was not interesting, so he smashed the watch on the old man's head, which had only a few scribbled hairs.
It was smashed very hard, and the noise was loud.
The moment he was smashed, the old man's outstretched fingers flicked a few times, and he regained his composure.
"Next. Hurry up, I don't have time to spend here with you. ”
The next passenger followed, and the old man continued to lie on the ground beside him. Dahan felt that the old man was taking up some space, and kicked the old man in the back and kicked the old man into the crowd on the side.
Extremely hard.
The crowd immediately took several steps back, leaving a gap between them and the old man.
"How's it going?" Someone asked.
Everyone knows that what this person wants to ask is, whether he is dead or not.
This old man also looks about four hundred years old, which is considered a high life expectancy among some interstellar races, after all, not everyone can live to be five hundred years old.
"I don't know, there is no treatment cabin on this floor, and the treatment cabin is in the medical room on the top floor. Every doorway is guarded by star thieves, and we can't go to other floors. ”
This floor is the largest and most empty floor of the starship, a hall for people to entertain and rest.
"Do you have any extra potion?" Someone whispered.
"Potions are worth tens of thousands, to say the least... It's hard to say if we have enough money for a million... How can there be anything superfluous ...
Besides, there are no ordinary medicines, this kind of old man, it's not just the fall just now, he must have other injuries on his body.
You still have to use a treatment pod to treat it, otherwise, the potion is useless. ”
"Anyway, it's so old, it's time to die, let's be reincarnated quickly when we die, and pray that I won't meet a star thief in the next life." I don't know who whispered.
A little girl looked at the old man who was lying on the ground struggling to sit up, and took two steps forward but was stopped.
When I looked back, it was my mother.
"Mom, that old man is so pitiful. Let's go help him..."
"Everyone is pitiful, and we are pitiful when this kind of thing happens. Although your mother told you to do more good deeds, she didn't tell you to be nosy.
At this time, ordinary people like us shouldn't be in charge. What's the use of you helping him? What if he falls in love with you and asks you to help him pay his belongings?
If you don't help, people may come back and accuse you. In this world, there will never be a shortage of idlers who stand and talk without backache. The mother patted the little girl on the head and glared at the little girl.
The little girl nodded understandingly, and turned her head to stare at the old man.
She saw a slit squinting between the old man's weathered and wrinkled and deeply sunken eye sockets, which gradually widened to reveal the whites of his cloudy eyes, and something crystal flowed down.
The old man's mouth opened and closed, making an extremely quiet "ahhhhh
The little girl just looked at it and blinked.
An old man and a young man looked at each other like this.
I don't know how long it took, but the little girl saw the slit slowly close.
