I've never felt that the water tastes so good.

Where is this water, this is simply the source of life.

Putting an end to gulping down water is really refreshing, as if you can't drink enough of it.

Seeing that he had almost drunk, the little beggar put away the kettle, and took another dry, hard, and somewhat blackened nest and handed it to his mouth.

Don't open your mouth and bite the head of the nest, and take it into your mouth with a pinch of your tongue.

A chewing sound followed.

After eating one, you will not eat the second and third.

The little beggar on the other side kept giving, until the fifth one, and finally stopped.

It's not that he's hungry and hungry, it's that he has this rare opportunity to replenish energy, and he doesn't want to miss even the slightest thing.

Seeing that he was full, the little beggar laughed instead.

"I originally wanted to ask if you were from the North Beggar's side, but now it seems that it shouldn't be, where did you come from?"

"A poor man who was forced to run away from his home."

Don't just answer simply.

He didn't expect to tell his story and the other party would sympathize with him.

The person in front of him is a beggar, such a person is accustomed to misery and pain, how can he easily sympathize with him.

Sure enough, the little beggar also said, "You don't need to say what kind of poor person you are, there is no one who is not pitiful when you come here." If I'm not mistaken, your parents must have lost gambling debts and sold you to a casino, right? ”

There's nothing to deceive when you put an end to it, nodding.

"Hmph, that's all the damn Xiangsheng Casino can do."

It's a familiar name, and the first person to be robbed and killed during their raid on the Calamity was the person from this casino.

If he remembered correctly, the casino steward was a fat man.

Before he could kill him, the fat man was so frightened that he told everything he could say.

I don't know if the current manager of the casino is him, but if so, it seems that he can use these to make some articles.

However, I don't know how many years ago Hongliupo is depicted in this abyss, so I can't be sure if the shopkeeper of Xiangsheng Casino is him.

"Okay, I won't ink with you now, there are only two paths in front of you."

The little beggar directly gave him two choices: "Either you cut off your hands and feet to join us and go begging with us, or we will pack you up and send you to Xiangsheng Gambling House in exchange for a sum of money."

Both options are beneficial to us anyway, depending on whether you want to die or if you want to do it with us. ”

The little beggar was confident in this, and he had never seen anyone choose to lose his life.

Almost everyone chooses to cut off their arms and do it along, and that's how they did it in the first place.

But in the face of the choice he gave, Ran's face was full of mockery: "Using such shoddy means to force the gang to join you, trying to build a strong class alliance among the victims with blood, your naïve idea deserves that your beggar gang cannot become the eighth force in this red willow slope." ”

"What did you say?"

"Am I not right?" Don't raise eyebrows: "What is the meaning of your beggars' existence, and what are your slogans?" If I'm not mistaken, your slogan should be that heaven is impermanent, and there is always death. Suffering today, the Ming Dynasty will be the king, right?

No matter what the first ancestor in your gang thinks, his realm will never be comparable to that of you pleasure-hungry moths! ”

"What did you say?" The little beggar, apparently enraged by the words of the ban, reached out and tore open the sleeve that had been tied up, took out a dagger from it, and stabbed it at the end with his hand.

But there was no expression of fear on his face, and he just looked at the angry little beggar quietly, and even a faint mockery appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Just as the little beggar's dagger was about to stab the abandonment, the old male voice who had been standing behind the abandonment suddenly spoke.

"Full warehouse, stop!"

After calling out the little beggar who wanted to kill someone, the old man walked in front of Dementia.

He was dressed in tattered clothes, and his chin had a messy beard tangled like weeds, but his eyes were unusually bright, as if they were ready to shoot out of them at any moment.

"Old-timers!" Seeing the old man, he didn't say anything disrespectful as before, but respectfully greeted the old beggar/

"Hmm." The old beggar nodded and asked, "You seem to be familiar with our beggar gang just now." ”

"I've just heard a little about it, but I have some of my own foolish opinions after hearing about some things about the beggar gang."

"Whether it's a foolish opinion or not, I have to listen to it to find out." The old beggar smiled: "You can say it, if you say something good, I can consider exempting you from the law of cutting off your hands and feet." ”

"Helper!" Mancang cried out with some dissatisfaction.

"Shut up!" The old beggar turned his head and scolded Mancang, and then looked at the end again: "You say it boldly." ”

"Then I'll say it." He cleared his throat and said to the old beggar: "I also said before that the predecessors of the beggar gang were actually very idealistic, and they did use the beggars to build a powerful combat force at that time, but this combat power was easily disintegrated, which also made the beggar gang completely lose the possibility of being called the top faction." ”

"Oh? I would like to hear about it. ”

"Senior, if I'm not mistaken, the reason why there are so many beggars in our Hongliupo should be someone who gives alms at regular intervals, right?"

"Yes, many of the family members of the major forces in the city have converted to Buddhism, which is normal, after all, you also know that the Buddhist atmosphere we established is very strong, they are all relatively devout believers, and they will give alms to beggars every month."

"That's right." Put an end to the blazing eyes: "This is not their kind charity because of their study of Buddhism, they are a poisonous plan to disintegrate the beggar gang."

If I'm not mistaken, in fact, when Master Zu had just established the Beggar Gang, the Seven Major Forces had already noticed the Beggar Gang.

At that time, the slogan put forward by the beggars was to unite all the poor people in the world, which attracted many poor people. In addition, the Beggar Gang had no threshold for joining the gang at that time, and many civilians joined the Beggar Gang.

This caused the seven forces to fall into fear.

They are not afraid of the strength of a gang, because no matter how strong this gang is, it is impossible for him to break the balance and defeat the alliance of the seven forces by himself.

In the end, the situation is nothing more than to join the same stream and share the cake of Hongliupo together, and everyone does this.

What they are really afraid of is that the beggars have enveloped too many civilians.

Although they don't treat civilians as human beings, they also have to admit that civilians are the creators of Hongliupo's wealth.

It is impossible for the Seven Great Forces to go down to the field to farm, pick and create food themselves, these are the tasks of civilians in the final analysis.

And once the beggars control the civilians, it means that they have locked the wealth channel of the entire Hongliupo.

They didn't even need to do anything big, as long as they gave an order, all the people of Hongliupo would strike, and those nobles could only wait there to starve to death.

This is unacceptable to them, so they set a strategy at the beginning and must destroy the beggars.

The corrosion of the beggars is actually all-round, maybe the ancestor didn't notice anything when he was there, but once the ancestor died, the decline of the beggar gang followed.

Beggars generally do not work, and most of them live by begging.

Therefore, under the pretext of believing in Buddhism, the seven major forces gradually took over the main source of income for beggars from the common people.

Since they claim to believe in Buddhism, they will naturally give more to the poor people.

And those who are not pitiful lose their source of income, but according to the rules of the beggar gang, the money from begging is shared, which naturally causes the dissatisfaction of those poor people.

Over time, the beggars were divided.

Later, it was no longer the poor who gave alms, but the disabled who had broken their hands and feet.

This also caused most of the poor people to lose their gains.

But once the idle man is accustomed to getting something for nothing, he can never return to his hard work.

Then the unpitiful become the wretched, and the wretched become the disabled.

And the human body itself is perfect, and people with poor qualifications and broken hands and feet will definitely not be able to practice.

In the long run, the strength of the beggars has weakened to the extreme.

Anyway, they could no longer compete with the seven major forces, so the beggar gang surrendered their identity, broke away from the eight major forces, and turned to pursue interests.

Even in order to maximize profits, the beggar gang set the rule that all those who join the gang must break their hands and feet.

In this way, everyone is happy.

Although the beggars lost their status, they gained real money.

And the people of the Seven Great Forces only used a small amount of money to tear apart a person who could threaten his position.

The only difference is that all the disciples of the Beggar Gang have lost their status in the entire Red Willow Slope, and they have been looked down upon everywhere, and even the status of the leader of the Beggar Gang has plummeted, and as cultivators, their status is even inferior to that of ordinary civilians.

How can the beggars endure it.

Am I right? ”

Hearing the words of the end, Man Cang's face showed a little unwillingness, but he immediately turned his face away, not wanting to be discovered by the old beggar.

The old beggar didn't have the heart to look at him, just stared at him, and the look on his face was cloudy.

Finally, the old beggar sighed and nodded.

"Good boy, what you said is really not bad!"
