Chapter Twenty-Eight: Give Him a Chance
At this time, Song Yuan walked up.
"Why do they seem to trust and respect you, and disgust and fear me?
Obviously I did a good deed. ”
Zhou Shi looked puzzled and asked confusedly.
Song Yuan didn't speak, he observed everywhere.
found that he seemed to be deeply influenced by his previous life, as if he had changed a person.
The whole person feels different.
"They called me one of the three evils, and one of the other three evils was a tiger in Nanshan.
What are the three evils?"
Zhou Shi raised his head and continued to ask.
Song Yuan could see that Zhou was very confused at this time, and opened his mouth to answer.
"The three evils, as the name suggests, are the three evils in the hearts of the people of Yangxian. ”
"They are the fierce tigers that often come out of the forest to eat people on the South Mountain, the evil Jiao who destroys boats in the West River and devours the people who cross the river, and you!"
"Scourge! How could I be a scourge?"
The look of the surroundings was shocked.
"Juxtaposed with the man-eating tiger?
What am I doing wrong?"
He looked at the hateful and disgusted gazes of the people around him, and panicked.
"You have been rampant and domineering in Yangxian City for many years, and the people naturally hate you and dislike you, and put you on a par with other two evils. ”
Song Yuan's eyes moved slightly.
"Brother Zhou, what's wrong with you?"
A few scoundrels kneeling on the ground said with a crying voice.
"Didn't you be very proud of the identity of the three evils before?
I think everyone is afraid of you like a man-eating tiger!
And you also say that you should be more than the other two evils, not tied.
You are stronger than the Nanshan Tiger and the Xihe Evil Jiao!"
"Impossible!
How can I be a bully who runs rampant in the countryside and oppresses the people?"
Holding his head around.
But I gradually really recalled some scenes when I used to oppress the people.
He felt incomprehensible about these memories, and had a sense of strangeness, as if the person in the memory was not him, but there were indeed him.
"I've done so many evil deeds!"
"Could it be that I have done good deeds when I am uneven, and others look at me like that, and their words are full of disgust and hatred for me!"
The look around him was painful.
"Zhou, you were indeed a bully who oppressed the people before!"
Song Yuan suddenly opened his mouth and said slowly.
"But when you see what you are doing today, it seems that you have repented!
As long as you do more good deeds in the future, as you do today, you can make up for the evil deeds you have committed in the past.
It may not be impossible to win everyone's forgiveness and change your impression in everyone's mind. ”
Hearing Song Yuan's words, his eyes lit up, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
"Yes! I still have a chance!
From now on, I can forsake evil and turn to good, and make up for the evil deeds I have committed!"
"Song Gongzi, don't believe him!
How can the Circle repent so easily?
He must have a conspiracy!"
When the people on the street heard what Song Yuan said, they were shocked and hurriedly reminded.
"Song Gongzi, Zhou was afraid that you would punish him, so he pretended to be repentant!"
"He must want you to let down your guard against him, and look for an opportunity to assassinate you in the future!"
"There are many evils around, I can't trust him!"
The crowd was outraged!
Song Yuan could understand the reaction of the people around him.
In other words, if he hadn't known in advance, he would have 'woken up'.
He will also be skeptical when faced with a bully who has done a lot of evil and suddenly does good deeds, saying that he will repent in the future and make up for the evil deeds he committed in the past.
Looking at the disgust and distrust on the faces of the people, they lowered their heads and looked lonely, and there was indescribable sadness in their eyes.
He really wanted to repent, but the people didn't believe in him at all.
"Everyone, listen to me. ”
Song Yuan looked at the people around him.
"Be quiet, don't be noisy!
Listen to what Song Gongzi said. ”
The crowd shouted, and the noisy street fell silent.
Zhou Shi raised his head and also looked at Song Yuan, wondering what he was going to say.
Song Yuan stood in the crowd with a serious expression and said loudly.
"It is hard to believe that Zhou suddenly woke up.
He did commit many evil deeds before, but fortunately he did not commit any major wrongdoing, killing or killing anyone. ”
"The sages said that people who have no fault can change it after passing it, and it is great to be good!"
Zhou found that Song Yuan actually helped him speak in front of the people, and his heart was filled with infinite gratitude.
He had obviously never met Song Yuan before, but Song Yuan was willing to believe him and help him speak!
Song Yuan continued.
"I don't think the meaning of repentance is fake, I hope everyone can trust him once and give him a chance!"
Hearing Song Yuan's words, some people in the crowd softened a lot, but there were still many people who looked angry, as if they wanted to say something!
"Of course!
Zhou also has to show everyone his determination to repent, so that everyone knows that he is truly repentant!"
Song Yuan didn't wait for them to speak, and continued with a change of voice.
He turned his head and looked around.
"Yangxian has three evils, and the Nanshan Tiger has been killed by me.
"I was going to try again in the next few days to see if I could get rid of the West River Jiaolong.
But I'm not the only one who is no match for the evil Jiao.
Everywhere, would you like to go down to the river with me to get rid of the Jiao!"
The faces of the people changed, and they went down to the river to get rid of the Jiao, which was extremely dangerous.
Just like the Yangxian County Ya tried to deal with the Nanshan Tiger, he also tried to kill the Xihe Evil Jiao!
But that evil dragon is extremely cunning, no matter how much people lure it, it will not come ashore, and the trap on the ground is completely in vain.
A row of bed crossbows and catapults arranged on the flat side of the river did not hurt it.
The Evil Jiao's defense is stronger than that of the Nanshan Tiger!
The poison that was enough to poison ten cows, hid in the belly of the sheep, and it was eaten by it, and nothing happened.
As for the battle in the river, the county commander believed that the evil Jiao's tail would have a huge force to sink the boat, and no matter how many soldiers were sent down the river, they would be sent to death.
In the end, stone monuments could only be erected on both sides of the river.
Warning people not to cross the river if there is an evil dragon.
Go down to the river to fight with such a terrible evil dragon, almost ten deaths!
"I do!"
Zhou Shi looked excited, and agreed without hesitation.
"As long as I can make up for the evil deeds I have committed in the past and win everyone's forgiveness, I am willing to go down to the river to get rid of Jiao. ”
As soon as this sentence came out, the people looked surprised and whispered.
"Willing to be so dangerous!"
"Zhou Di seems to be genuinely remorseful. ”
"Who knows if what he says is true or not, the key is to see if he will really do it!
What if he really gets rid of the Xihe Evil Jiao with Song Gongzi and gives him a chance to repent!"
"Good!
If this trip successfully kills the evil Jiao, you will abandon the evil and follow the good, and Yang Xian will no longer have any three evils from now on!"
Song Yuan said with a smile.
"Zhou, for the sake of Song Gongzi's face, we are willing to give you a chance to repent!"
Some of the people shouted loudly.
As long as you help Song Gongzi get rid of the evil Jiao and come back, and then apologize and make amends to the people who have been bullied by you before, we can forgive you!"
"Get rid of the evil Jiao, and we believe that you are truly repentant!"
The crowd responded.
"I'm going to get rid of the Evil Jiao!"
The eyes around him are firm, the tone is resolute, and his hands are clenched into fists!
A smile appeared on Song Yuan's face on the side.
The dragon's body has fallen.
The plan was not in vain.
