Volume 1 [The Prosperous Demon Wind is Ruthless] Chapter 5 The Death of a Scholar
A year later.
Lin'an wants to burn a man to death.
Lin Ajiu heard that the person who was going to set the fire was Daddy Luo, so Lin Ajiu went. As a result, Lin Ajiu saw that the person tied to the fire was a scholar.
Lin Ajiu felt distressed for a moment, but when he remembered that the scholar had only taught Luo Wuqiu and not her in the past year, resentment and jealousy came to his heart, and after a year of repeated thinking day and night, Lin Ajiu had already drawn a clear line with the scholar, so Lin Ajiu was even more ruthless.
Father Luo held a torch, stood on the built platform, and shouted at the dozens of people below: "Everyone is watching! This outsider doesn't even have a name! He has taught my son Luo Wuqiu badly! No one in Lin'an can read and write, but we haven't lived well for so many years? Those who can read and write are amazing? Those who can read and write are superior?
Daddy Luo roared and blushed, but the whole person was in high spirits, and the whole person looked vulgar.
Lin Ajiu instantly began to worry about her father, they could read and write. Will it be burned one day? No! Absolutely not!
At this time, Lin Ajiu realized that this group of people was just barbarians. Because they are so unreasonable, so they are so barbaric, this is terrifying. Lin Ajiu seemed to have a trace of pity in his heart, but the next moment, such pity turned into resentment, and Lin Ajiu began to hate those ignorant and ignorant people.
Luo Wuqiu raised his eyes to look at the scholar's bleak face, just crying helplessly.
"The big guys are all here today, we have to maintain our peace together! We can't let him take the lead in ruining our next generation! Yesterday, Luo Wuqiu of my family actually told me that I can't wronged the women in my family! I actually said such things! This woman should be an accessory of a man by nature, when is she qualified not to be wronged? Ah?
The men below began to stir, and one by one they began to scold, shouting that they were going to burn the scholars.
Listening to those clamours, the moment Lin Ajiu looked at the scholar, tears fell from the corners of his eyes. Lin Ajiu thought, and the scholar also saw Lin Ajiu's tears, as well as the ridicule in his eyes and the sarcasm in the corners of his mouth.
Lin Ajiu really wanted to ask the scholar, is such an ignorant person worthy of forgiveness? Or is it worth leaving him a way out? This world is the law of the jungle, and it is deceitful to me.
If one day we don't let them know the reason, it is meaningless and stupid.
At the beginning, the scholar wanted to persuade her not to easily become murderous, but now is it considered a slap in the face?
Lin Ajiu glanced at Luo Wuqiu, walked up and whispered sarcastically in his ear: "You are a bad seed, forever surrendered to your father's obscenity." Now you can't even protect the scholars, you can only harm others, you are a waste that harms people!"
The moment Lin Ajiu raised his head, he saw the tears that slipped from the corners of Luo Wuqiu's eyes, Lin Ajiu didn't know if he was remorseful or incompetent, but Lin Ajiu also disliked it! What is the point of living in this world? It's better to die!
Lin Ajiu left the scene angrily, Lin Ajiu didn't dare to see the tragic situation of the scholar being burned to death, and Lin Ajiu didn't want to hear the scholar's screams. Lin Ajiu was extremely disgusted by everyone who watched the play there! They were all accomplices! Accomplices who killed the scholars!
After Lin Ajiu returned home, he began to pack his baggage, which startled his father, who stopped Lin Ajiu and asked, "What are you doing?"
Lin Ajiu suddenly looked at his father with resentment, and then asked: "Dad, you also know that the scholar is going to be burned to death, don't you? Why do you know so many truths but can't save him? Why do you want to come to such a disgusting barbarian land to settle down? Shouldn't the eldest husband stand up to the sky and the earth and eliminate violence and peace? Why can you only swallow your anger here in a corner of peace? Why!"
Listening to Lin Ajiu's hysteria, his mother came over and slapped Lin Ajiu hard: "I said that you shouldn't be literate! Now that's how you talk to your father? Your father is a living person, not a god! Do you think he is not tired? Do you think he is very capable? There are so many cruel things in this world that you have to settle down? Eliminate violence and peace and good? Tell me what is the elimination of violence and peace and goodness! Is it true that burning a person to death is a heinous person in your eyes? They are just ignorant and ignorant! Not heinous!"
Lin Ajiu trembled and looked at his mother, the corners of his lips were full of sarcasm, and Lin Ajiu's tears slipped down uncontrollably. It turns out that many things are so powerless, but why can't they do anything? It's not because they are not strong enough!
Lin Ajiu threw his burden hard, looked at his mother and said with a resentful face: "Mother, maybe I don't understand anything." But I know one thing, the law of the jungle. A year ago, the scholar said that if you want to learn the art of manipulation from him, you can't easily get hurt to others! I didn't promise the scholar, so he only taught Luo Wuqiu! What happened to him now? Haha...... It's really funny! If he lets others live, he will give himself no way out!"
Lin Ajiu was even more angry after speaking, Lin Ajiu looked at his father's uneasy eyes, but a thought was born in his heart, is it the best to leave here?
Just thinking about it, Lin Ajiu suddenly realized that the book in the scholar's bamboo house: Will it be burned by Daddy Luo for a while? No, I have to hurry up and bring it back!
"Ah Jiu, where are you going?"
So Lin Ajiu hurriedly ran out, ignoring the shouts of his father and mother behind him.
Dad looked at Lin Ajiu's distant figure, and burst into tears: "I was wrong, I shouldn't have taught Ah Jiu to read." ”
The mother leaned helplessly on her father's shoulder, sad and desperate.
Main Hall.
When Lin Ajiu pushed open the door of the bamboo house, he saw black and white chess pieces scattered all over the ground, as well as books with footprints stepped on.
Lin Ajiu carefully picked up the book, but recognized three words - "Manipulation".
Lin Ajiu's original sympathy for the scholar came to naught in an instant, and Lin Ajiu only sneered: "Heh, it turns out that you taught Luo Wuqiu everything in private, and I ...... to pay it back."
Lin Ajiu smiled desolately, and a feeling of abandonment swept through his body and penetrated deep into his bone marrow.
Lin Ajiu frowned fiercely, put the book in his arms, and then rummaged through the cabinets everywhere and found a large number of books, Lin Ajiu randomly selected a few books that looked powerful, and the rest couldn't be taken away at all.
Since sooner or later it will be destroyed, isn't it better to come in person?
Lin Ajiu saw the fire on the stove, gritted his teeth, and set fire to a corner of the bamboo house.
Lin Ajiu's heart beat violently, but Lin Ajiu wanted to see the bamboo house turn to ashes, Lin Ajiu looked down at the useless "Mirror Flower Yuan" in his hand, and then smashed it into the fire of the bamboo house, and with the help of the book, the fire spread rapidly.
Lin Ajiu looked at the sky-high firelight, and told himself over and over again in his heart that only relying on himself is the best in this world, and no one can rely on him.
