Volume 5 The Return of the King 47 World
"I think the top management is degraded now." A younger man said disdainfully.
"What?" I looked up at him.
"There's such a big thing going on in the kingdom, why do I feel like I'm not caring so much about that group of Defiya?"
"What do you know, how do you know if you're not interested? Aren't the wanted notices for joint wanted notices posted everywhere? Someone retorted.
"What's the use of that, it's fooling people." Said the young guy. "If it's really going to hunt them down, shouldn't they be eager to turn this country over, then go and find them?"
"Looks like you have a good idea?" An old man said with a smile.
"If I had Bolval's right, I would guarantee to solve the case in a month." The guy said arrogantly.
"A month?" The crowd laughed. "Why are you so good sitting here and bragging to us?"
"Those old men haven't discovered me yet." He was not ashamed.
"I also feel that the current army is becoming more and more cowardly, and now I don't dare to fight at all." A chubby man in his fifties interjected. "I don't know what they think."
"You can't spend money on war?" A guy with a hairy head said, "The country has no money." ”
"What about the money? It's a lot better now than it was ten years ago! The young man said, "I didn't give the money to the brotherhood, and now I don't see everyone rich." ”
"How do I know where the money goes?" Said the hairless man.
"Hmph, only they know where the money went!" The middle-aged man in his fifties said angrily: "They are corrupt and don't share with us." ”
"The old man's money will never be shared with us." The young man said, "We will not get any time." ”
"Then Defiya should be able to sober up after stirring up and stirring up your Stormwind Kingdom." I say.
"Humph!" The middle-aged man snorted very disdainfully, "I don't think anything has changed like this." ”
"Weakness against the enemy can only give the enemy an inch." The lad said. "Now there is not a single general in the Stormwind Kingdom who can fight."
"So you say Defia can take Stormwind in two days, right?" That Mediterranean mouth full of mockery.
"Where is the Brotherhood of Defia now?" I asked.
Everyone looked at me with disdain, "If we had known that Dilfia would have been destroyed a long time ago." The middle-aged man said.
"I think they might have gone south to the sunny glades, where there's not many people going now." Someone interjected.
"But I heard that they went to the west, and there are their strongholds in the west."
"There are also in the east, didn't I catch a few a few days ago."
"They won't be able to jump for a few days."
"Hmph, look at what you said, they used to be good people."
"Good guys? The Defia I've seen isn't a nice person. ”
"If you don't pay you for your work, and you get out of the work, you can't keep it all right, you're worse than them."
"Then you can't kill the queen."
"Then who dares to say what's going on, what if they didn't do it?"
"The king said they did it."
"The king still owes money!"
"I find out why are you still speaking for them?"
"I'm just talking about it from the perspective of a worker."
"I feel like you're like Defiya."
"Fart you!"
"Overseas, Dilfia's name is still relatively loud." I said, "They said they were going to seek justice and fair treatment. ”
"That's a bunch of bandits and hooligans."
"It can't be all. Didn't you say that you were owed wages in the first place? There must be some nice people. ”
"Good people don't participate in Defiya, there is a former brotherhood in our village, who later admits that he is unlucky, and now he is a stonemason at home."
"Don't you want the money?"
"Why do you want this money?"
"That's been going to be for years!"
"It's better to be a thief for a few years than to be a thief. If I run away with them, I don't know how miserable it will be now. ”
"Tut-tut......"
"Did they burn and loot before?" I asked.
"Yes!"
"Why didn't I see it?"
"Didn't you see that? You've heard about it. ”
"When?"
"Two years ago, in the vineyard, didn't the people of Defia start robbing?"
"There was a similar incident in North County some time ago." A small guy joined the discussion.
"Those guys are really doing all kinds of evil right now."
"But if the king gave the money in his early years, there would be no such thing." Said the man with the Mediterranean hairstyle.
"Why do you keep talking about the king?" The young man said dissatisfiedly.
"Someone has to be responsible for this." The man responded, "He has to be ultimately responsible for anything that happens in this kingdom." ”
No one refuted it, and the boring conversation was over. I looked at the bartender, who glanced at me without speaking.
The tavern seemed to be back to its original atmosphere, and the people who had just argued about it were sitting there drinking their own wine as if nothing had happened.
Some people want war, some don't want to, some people think that Defia is excusable, some people are hostile to them, whether they see it with their own eyes or hearsay, each of them has their own likes and dislikes in their hearts, and they have their own judgments. I can't say who's right and who's wrong, what they say only means what they can know, see, hear, think, no matter what, they only have a position, there is no right or wrong.
I looked at the people in the tavern, all sorts of people. The human mind is really ...... It dawned on me that human thoughts can be complex or simple. Complexity is because it has nothing to do with one's own interests, and vice versa. There are things I like to hear, and there are things I don't like to hear. I also automatically categorized the people in this group into two types, but no matter how they were divided, this group of people was not the people I was looking for.
I'm reviewing myself, maybe my approach is fundamentally wrong, who does Edwin want? People who are dissatisfied with their lives, people who want to change their lives but can't, people who are dissatisfied with the country, people who are dissatisfied with the king, people who have been wronged and cannot do justice...... What else? Are these people dissatisfied with life? I don't see it.
Perhaps! But here and now, their inner reaction is not like that. Or is it not going to show it at this moment! But even if there are signs of this...... This kind of person should also be the kind of person who is not easy to launch and will not be determined! The more I looked at the group, the more disgusted I felt, so I left the tavern and went out into the street.
The noisy street is full of people, and after standing on the side of the street for a while, I am going to take a look along the street, and it is good to take a break.
There are people from Defia in such places, but I don't want to find them for a while. As I stood on the side of the road, I saw the peddlers arguing over a few copper plates, I saw the trembling grandmother pulling her little grandson slowly through the crowd, I saw the various looks of people as they walked by, and I saw the beggars running around trying to get a penny in the crowd.
This is the world, a society of living people, and suddenly I feel like I'm a little out of place with them. I don't even know what I'm thinking.
And when I saw the happy smiles on the faces of the boys and girls, when I saw the people who came out to uphold justice pull away the two people who were arguing, when I saw a tired woman holding a crying child, although tired and sweaty, her face was anxious but slowly became calm when she sat on the side of the road and took the child into her arms to feed, when I saw that some people had calm, love, and compassion for them to help others......
I couldn't bear it again. So I walked over to a little beggar who was so thin, his black body under his dirty and tattered clothes, and his messy hair did not cover his big eyes. He held a bowl and held it out to the pedestrians on the road, trying to get a copper plate or two. But there were several beggars, and he couldn't get there.
He was pushed aside. And this scene happened to be seen by the woman who was breastfeeding. She stared at the group of beggars, and finally fixed her gaze on the skinny boy. In an instant I saw pity, love, and kindness in that mother's eyes!
But the woman was not really well dressed, she lowered her eyes, blinked, and looked up at the child, her hand touched her waist, and after a little hesitation, she took out a few copper plates. At that moment, I felt that this woman was so holy that I was ashamed!
She didn't look like a rich man at all, and she beckoned to the child who was following her, and the child looked at the woman and walked over. The woman's face was covered with sweat, and she gently put a few copper plates into the child's bowl and said something to him. The expression on her face was full of pity and love, and her eyes showed me the greatness of a mother, a woman!
I watched her quietly, and when she got up to leave, I walked over and followed her.
There are still true, good, and beautiful things in this world, and what if...... What will become of Edwin if he starts a war? Will their lives get harder? Will they still be so calm, so kind, and so loving?
I suffered a loss, Edwin also suffered, and thousands of brothers and sisters of the former Masonry Brotherhood also suffered. I can pay for my losses, I can do without them, I can forgive others for the mistakes they have done to me, but I can't make decisions for Edwin! I can't make decisions for those Brotherhood people.
On the one hand I feel a little struggling, but on the other hand I feel like I can change something. I don't want Edwin to destroy more people's stable lives, but on the other hand, I hope that those who have suffered losses and even been persecuted will one day be judged correctly and treated fairly! Even if more than ten or twenty years have passed since this incident!
Although there are some people I don't like, like most of the people in the tavern, there is still a lot of truth, goodness and beauty that needs to be cared for.
The woman's purse was not hard to take, I took out three gold coins and stuffed them into her purse, then patted her and pointed to her purse on the ground. When she bent down to pick it up, I quickly turned around and squeezed into the crowd.
I need to go to Stormwind!
I have to do something.
