Chapter 48: Change
The hut was occupied, and it was inhabited by a helpless couple with a baby in swaddling clothes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Wu Potian did not drive them away, but took off a piece of animal skin on his back and wrapped it around the baby.
He inquired about the situation here from outside, but it was only five years, and in these five years, the slums have changed a lot, and many people have left, it should be said...... He's dead. The slum winters were quite difficult, and their families had an extra expense to buy firewood, and many people would die in the winter, and five years later, five winters later, one after another died, and some new residents came to move in.
He came to the place where Xiaoya used to live, but this place was demolished, it is said that the original house collapsed under the heavy rain, and no one came to live in this land, so no one built a straw hut, mainly because it was too laborious.
He finally found the person who was still here five years ago, and he asked for clues about Xiaoya, but they didn't know, they only knew that Xiaoya was gone.
Back then, Xiaoya left as soon as she left, her father had no one to take care of, her younger brother was so hungry that he cried, and the neighbors found out and quickly took her brother back to take care of her, but her father didn't survive and died. When Xiaoya returned, she burned her father's body and knelt in front of his grave for a few days and nights, and then she left, taking her brother with her.
"Xiaoya must hate me to death...... With such a me, there is no need to exist, I will never see her again, and I don't even have a chance to apologize. ”
Wu Potian didn't know what to do, hatred or some unknown feelings were fermenting, and what had been supporting him to live was his wish to see Xiaoya again, and now this wish is difficult to achieve. Maybe Xiaoya and her brother have starved to death on the way out, people like them who have no identity, no status, no place to accommodate them, and there is only a dead end to get out.
Wu Potian sat on the road like a fool, sometimes yelling, sometimes hugging his head and crying, he was a sinner, a sinner referred to by a thousand people.
Ten days later, he came to his senses, he didn't want to be so depressed anymore, he vowed not to let anything knock him down again, he was going to make amends, he was going to do something.
Wu Potian stood up, the first thing he did was to go to the mountains to catch wild beasts and eat a big meal, followed by a beautiful sleep.
And then that's what he's really going to do.
Wu Potian broke into the gangsters alone, subdued everyone by force, beat them to fear, and beat them to the point of shadow. The gangsters are all ordinary people, and none of them are the enemies of Wu Potian. But they are poor, they are crazy, and they will never admit defeat and compromise with the invaders, and for those who want to steal their money. This battle has been fought for a long time, and he carefully controls his strength and does not want to kill them, but as long as they can still stand up, they will immediately stand up and rush forward without their lives.
This battle lasted for a long time, and everyone was lying on the street with blue noses and swollen eyes, broken weapons everywhere.
Wu Potian didn't come to destroy them, he just wanted to subdue them, he wanted them to become his own strength, and do his part to protect the villagers in the slums.
The gangsters in the slums are not bad people, they don't bully good people, only those who steal and commit adultery will be targeted by them.
The slum is a zone of exile and a place of exile, which houses people who have been abandoned or convicted of exile. A person who has committed the crime of exile will have his original identity revoked, which means that he will become a person with no status and no social status, and they will be expelled from a considerable number of places, such as county towns and towns, which are governed by Tianwu officials, and they are not allowed to enter.
The exception is the Three Mountains City next to the slums, which is a mixed bag, although there are officials to manage it, but none of the officials who can be officials in it are Qing officials, they allow the chaos to exist, and even repeatedly dismiss the orders from above on the grounds that it is difficult to govern. The chaos is good for them, because then they can use their violence to collect protection money, collude with the local underworld, and allow many illegal transactions to continue in the chaos.
Officials oppress the underworld, the underworld oppresses the rich, the rich oppress the civilians, and the civilians bully the poor.
What Wu Potian wants to do is to save the slums, they don't deserve this kind of treatment, the so-called crime of exile is actually a trumped-up crime, those people have offended the high-level, and the high-level can't treat their crime through normal means, so put on this trumped-up charge, torture them, and make them suffer.
Slums have long been a means used by the rich and powerful to torture those they hate.
He gathered the power of the gang and killed the stone farmer and his doglegs, but this behavior touched the upper echelons, and the officials of Three Mountains City personally settled the matter. The quarry is a very important part of Sanshan Castle, 50% of the quarryed stones are handed over, and 30% of the money obtained from the sale is taxed, which involves a huge amount of money.
Wu Potian thought that he would be able to save the people in the slums by solving the stone farm owner and his den, but he was too naïve, the slums were too deep, the slums involved too many families, too many forces, and they were staring at their enemies all the time, and they wanted to make them suffer. Wu Potian not only destroyed the profit channels of the officials of Sanshui City, but also inadvertently cut off the eyes of many forces.
Wu Potian repelled the first wave of people from Sanshui City, but the second time they sent a martial artist and a Xuanshi powerhouse. Wu Potian was defeated, the gang was served in a pot, he was defeated, and finally escaped.
Wu Potian understood a truth, just with a lot of blood, he couldn't do anything. If you want to correct this cannibalistic world and change it, you need strength, and you need the power to subdue everyone.
Wu Potian shaved both sides of his cheeks, cut off one of his ears, and entered Sanshui City with a completely new identity, and from today his name will be Su Ju.
He knew that his qualifications were limited, and he would not achieve anything in Xuanli in his life, and he couldn't rely on force to overthrow Sanshui City, but to destroy it little by little in other ways.
The process was not easy, and it took him a full year to gain trust and integrate into the core forces of Sanshui City. This is because something happened, he blocked the boss of the Weihu Gang in Sanshui City, and he was truly trusted and entrusted with important tasks.
The more he learned about this circle, the more disgusted Wu Potian became, and the slum was only the most superficial thing in it. Human trafficking, the passage of evil ways, and even the slaughter of human beings for fodder, the evil of human nature is vividly manifested here, and it is hard to imagine how bad a person can be.
The most hateful thing is that they dare to fornicate with the demon clan and secretly sell part of the population and weapons to the Ten Thousand Demon Panshan. Of course, this is just what he overheard the boss say, he has no evidence at all, and if he finds evidence, he can definitely kill them.
In order to climb high enough on the mountain, Wu Potian forced himself to forget his conscience, disguised himself as one of their most loyal members, slaughtered innocent civilians for them, and snatched swaddling babies for them.
Five years have passed, Wu Potian has succeeded, he has successfully proved himself with his actions, and finally touched that level. In the past five years, he has been a good little brother with all his heart, learned to hide himself, learned to grovel, and learned how to think with his brain, he knows how to read words and colors, and understands other people's thoughts through subtle expressions. Now, like a cunning fox, he hides himself deep under the mask, finding the right time to give them a fatal blow.
