Chapter 44 The most beautiful is always once

After the orangutan brother finished speaking, the three of them entered the town in silence. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Once they entered the town, they remembered the empty city they had created in the City of Justice to deal with the goats. The place they came to was not much better than the empty city. It can be seen that this must have been a rich town, perhaps richer than the city of rich merchants. The roads are wide, the houses are tall and big, and they all have wide yards. However, in this rich complex, the sparsely populated residents are so poor that they can't even afford to eat rice porridge.

They couldn't find an inn and stayed overnight at a family's house.

This family has a mansion, there are nine guest rooms alone, but in the whole house, there is only one grandmother, because the legs and feet are really not good, relying on the nearby villagers to help, and occasionally a few outsiders come to spend the night and collect some small rent. The old man was not afraid of outsiders robbing her, because in fact, she had nothing to rob her.

The three of them put away their luggage, and finally couldn't hold back their silence and began to talk.

"The war has brought down this town, and if it weren't for the war, the town would have the resources, the foundation, and it would soon grow again. "The war will not end, and sooner or later this will become an empty city." ”

"Even if it doesn't become an empty city, it's already uncomfortable to look like it now. Wherever this is a town, there are empty houses like haunted houses, and even children have to work in the fields. Children should be carefree to play. But the children here are not children at all, they bear much more than the adults in other places. Xiaoxue said.

The orangutan brother wanted to speak, but he was already in tears at this point, and he usually avoided speaking, so he could only listen quietly and continue his crying.

"It would be nice to be able to bring the people of war back to the fields, but even boys under the age of ten are determined to go to the battlefield, and the roots of war in this place are deeply rooted in the hearts of men. "How can we stop a war that has lasted for twenty-five years?"

Xiaoxue and the orangutan brother fell silent, they didn't even know the reason for the war. What they encountered this time was something that could not be solved by eliminating one or two bullies and thieves. "No matter how difficult things are, as long as you work hard and persevere, there will be hope. "Stone often said such things to them, but this time he didn't. Because even he himself had no faith. In the city of wealthy merchants, facing Chen Feng, who is all-encompassing in the underworld and white, and in the city of justice, facing the goats as powerful as legends, he has never despaired as much as now.

For the first time, they felt how small the power of the three of them was, and they felt powerless in the face of this whole social reality. Maybe they should give up, find a quiet place, and spend the rest of their lives happily, just like Xiaoxue's master.

But this is not something they can accept, in the past two or three months, it has not been easy for them to walk, but all the difficulties have been overcome, and the impossible has been completed. Li Zhang, Chen Feng, the goats, and the bullies in the City of Chaos, none of them were easy to deal with, but they all dealt with them.

They can't do anything about it, and they can't stop there.

"Let's find out what happened to this town. Stone said. He suddenly felt ashamed, for the first time in history, before they knew the ins and outs of the matter, they thought of the difficulties first, and they frowned, and wanted to give up hope before they could even start.

In order to understand the cause of the war, they called the owner of the house, an old woman who had difficulty walking. Before the old woman could tell the story, she remembered her past, and she was intoxicated by herself for half an hour before she returned to reality and told them the following story.

It turns out that the East and West Towns were originally one town. Because there are two big mountains in the south of this place, like the wings of a big eagle, embracing the whole town, it is named Shuangyi Mountain, and this town is also called Twin Cities. The city lord of Shuangcheng is called Yang Ming, he loves people like a son, and is good at management, and Shuangcheng is originally located in a place with fertile soil, not only the wind and rain are smooth, but also there are no weeds, no insects, everything can be planted to have a good harvest, there are large areas of fertile land that can be used for farming, Shuangcheng quickly grew.

The abundance and affluence of the twin cities have bred a large number of idlers. This group of smart and time-bound people has made the Twin Cities a capital of art and thought. At that time, in Shuangcheng, the land was almost untended, and a large number of crops could be grown, and even ordinary farmers had enough time to learn qin, chess, calligraphy and painting. Almost everyone is an artist-thinker. All people, whether officers, merchants, peasants, were more or less educated, and were on the same equal level, both in wealth and spirit. The peasants had the qualifications to be officials and businessmen, and the officials and businessmen were also very willing to work in the fields and become ordinary peasants. As a matter of fact, many peasants were abandoned by officials to live in farms, while many officials were in fact peasants in the past.

The Twin Cities at that time were a utopia. In the fields, you may not see the peasants working, but they are reciting poems or even paintings. Officers and civilians are together, and instead of arguing over social disputes, they are discussing a poem together, or playing and singing together. At that time, there was not even an army chengguan, because the government and the people trusted each other, and there was no need for any coercive force.

At that time, there were no orphans, because even if a child accidentally lost his parents, whether he was blind or dumb, there were people who voluntarily adopted him. The high moral character made the townspeople treat all children as if they were their own.

The noble character also made the citizens treat all the old people as parents, so there are no old people in the twin cities who are not taken care of.

At that time, there was no National Day, and there was no Spring Festival, because every day was a festival, and every day was a song and dance, which was much more lively than the current Spring Festival and Lantern Festival.

As long as you want, every day is not only a holiday, but also a holiday. You don't have to worry about getting tired of singing and dancing and visiting the street markets, and the Twin Cities also have the largest library in the country, a variety of large and small art centers, and you can see free voluntary performances of opera and acrobatics everywhere.

In the utopia of the Twin Cities, as long as you are born there, you are destined to be happy, have no worries about food and clothing, enjoy a good education, do not have to worry about life and work, and are not afraid of old age and widows, and no one will know if you die.

However, when a city is full of artists and thinkers, it is inevitable that there will be disagreements. The controversy of a hundred schools of thought makes the society more progressive, which is a good result, but it can also lead to division, which will bring war and disaster to a peaceful and stable society. It is said that there was once a country that split into two factions because bananas should be peeled from the top or from the branches, which led to a tragic civil war, which was later wiped out by neighboring countries.

And the division of the city of Twin Cities started with a chicken. Of course, this is what the people of Kojo say. The people of City B will say that the division of the two cities began with an egg.
