Freedom is something that everyone desires, and the definition of freedom is different for everyone. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In Houjia Village all these years, no one is more eager for himself than Hou Ping'an. For a person living in the Internet age, not receiving information from the outside is a very frustrating thing. He had wanted to go out countless times, wanted to escape, wanted to see the outside world. However, due to various reasons, he had only been to the county seat of Wuyun Mansion at the farthest.

The body is bound to this small world, and the mind is like a prison, restricted by all kinds of conventional rules. Hou Ping'an was extremely depressed, and even wanted to commit suicide at one point.

Hou Ping'an knew that this could be depression. But this kind of illness, he can't say to the people around him, or the people of this era.

Over the years, in order not to distort his psychology with depression, he has been forcing himself not to stop, not to let his brain stop.

Practice, read, and do business, he went crazy and let himself spin, without stopping. But the more he did, the more depressed he became.

** is to be immersed in the pig cage, women are just for the sake of inheritance.

The words of the patriarch are greater than the law of the country, and the squire is the lord of the land.

If you practice the exercises, you can practice the exercises taught to you by your elders, and if you practice anything else, you are betraying your master.

To read a book, you have to read the Four Books and the Five Classics, and reading miscellaneous books is not a proper job.

To do business, you have to rely on monopoly, and don't care about other people's lives or deaths......

For this seemingly normal, but terminally ill society, Hou Ping'an is becoming more and more difficult to accept.

In the end, after a murderer was shielded and hidden by his relatives, but his relatives were found not guilty and praised by the squire. Hou Ping'an's depressed mood completely exploded.

He was sick, and this illness was more than a month.

All the beauty of ancient times that he had seen in the novel opened his mouth at this time, mocking him mercilessly.

Hou Dahai was anxious, but he was helpless.

Yue Laoqi, who is proficient in medical science, has only been diagnosed with one heart disease.

Hou Ping'an, who was in a coma, nagged with only one word, freedom......

Hou Dahai didn't understand, and Qin Wu didn't understand either, only Yue Laoqi, a real reader, guessed a few points. When I went back, I took out the book "Getaway" and explained it to them word by word.

Since then, he has become more and more reticent since then. Sometimes he would not say a word for days on end.

He practiced even more frantically, practicing the sword technique taught by Hou Dahai, and practicing the internal skills taught by Tianxingzi.

He went even more crazy in business, and opened his inn all over Tiannan.

The craziest thing he did was adopt orphans. It doesn't matter if these children are really orphans or sold by their parents, he wants them. He was going to establish an independent kingdom of his own. He wants to raise these children who have not been poisoned by this world to be like himself.

He knows that he can't change this society, he just wants to do his best to make the people and things around him better.

But he still failed.

Although those children have been brainwashed by him, the people and things around them still affect them, and more than half of them have become what this society should be.

In the past seven or eight years, he has used the money earned from the inn to adopt countless orphans. But in the end, few of them were to his liking.

Customs and morals are powerful and never change because of the will of a single person.

Hou Ping'an became more and more disappointed, even desperate.

Even if he was so anxious to travel, there were reasons to avoid facing these problems.

Now, his dad told him he was free.

But is it really free?

The crowd outside the wooden house has not dispersed, all waiting for Hou Ping'an to come out, waiting for this new owner.

The old people were worried about whether the new master could bring them food and clothing.

The young man looked at the cabin defiantly, wondering if he could take his place.

The children were curious about why the new big brother drove Hou Li away.

As for the women, they were like quails from beginning to end, trembling and hiding behind, waiting for fate to come.

Hou Ping'an put the letter paper into his arms, and didn't plan to show it to Qin Hao. After adjusting my mood, I took the lead.

After seeing Hou Ping'an in the wooden house come out, a trembling old man, supported by two young soldiers, walked towards Hou Ping'an. When there was still more than a foot away, they stopped, and then slowly knelt down, like a slave of the Central Plains, and bowed to Hou Ping'an.

They knew, and Hou Ping'an also knew, that their fates were likely to be entangled for a long time to come.

The old man's official words are very standard, at least more standard than Hou Ping'an imagined. intermittently told Hou Ping'an everything about the rat clan, from the origin of the rat clan to the current population of the rat clan, no matter how big or small. I was afraid that Hou Ping'an would suspect him of hiding his secrets.

The old age is very old, at least older than everyone Hou Ping'an has seen. People of such an age naturally know the hardships and hardships of life.

When Hou Li told him that he was leaving, he didn't know how many nights he couldn't sleep.

He didn't know if the people who came behind him could bring them food and clothing like Hou Li. He didn't know if the people who came behind him would treat them as human beings.

After seeing Hou Ping'an, his doubts became even heavier.

Can such a half-grown child really lead a good rat clan?

Naturally, the old man also thought about resisting, or choosing another master. But when he revealed this meaning to Hou Li, he was brutally suppressed.

Since you can't resist, let's enjoy it.

This is a philosophy of life that takes the elderly decades to learn.

The Yue brothers and Qin Hao were very puzzled, and they didn't know what Hou Ping'an would do. But out of trust all along, they didn't interject. Instead, he stood quietly behind him as before.

The old man said a lot, so much so that the sun was about to set.

Hou Ping'an waved his hand to stop it, and then let them leave.

Everything you want to know is already known, and the rest is not in a hurry.

But to go or to stay?

Is it really possible to stay and be free?

Qin Hao saw Hou Ping'an's melancholy and took the initiative to ask.

"Monkey, what's going on, let's help you with the details?"

Hou Ping'an glanced up at Qin Hao, and then said selectively: "The man just now is an eagle shooter, called Hou Li, and he should be an old man in the villa." He gave me a problem. ”

"What's the problem?" Yue Niu was already scratching his ears and cheeks anxiously. If Yue Xiong hadn't stopped him, he would have wanted to ask when he was outside just now.

"Those people out there are a tribe, and the name of the tribe is the Rat Clan. Hou Li patted his ass and left, throwing the problem of the survival of this wild man to us. You say, 'Do I want to accept people from this tribe?'

It is not a big deal that has nothing to do with life and death, this is Yue Niu's motto. After hearing that the problem was only about the wildlings, he relaxed. There are monkeys and rats, and there is no need for him to use his brain.
