"Stop talking nonsense, we can only be freed if you die." The man roared, fighting to the sky alone regardless of his own safety.
It's just a pity that reality is cruel, and in the face of the absolute disparity in strength, he was rejected.
Xiangtian's expression was slightly touched, and he was in a trance. This man used military fighting skills, and every movement was very standardized. He said solemnly: "You are a soldier."
"Huh, so what." The man rushed forward again, extremely unwilling.
As for the others, who had complicated expressions, they gradually calmed down and stood where they were.
"Then why do you sacrifice your life for others?"
"Tell me, if you have any difficulties, I can help you." Xiang Tian said in a low voice. During the fight, he kicked the machete away from the man's hand and responded with authentic fighting skills.
Perhaps they are both soldiers and have experienced each other's experiences. There is obviously some resonance between the two.
"You can't help us!" The man burst into tears in his eyes and roared in anger. It seemed that he was polished by the cruel reality, causing this man who was originally a strong man to surrender.
"If you continue to persist in your stubbornness, then no one can really help you." Xiangtian elbowed him away and stomped on the ground hard.
Long!
Gray stones splashed up, and the road ground instantly cracked into a spider web shape.
"This." Everyone's pupils suddenly expanded and contracted, as if they had realized how kind this man was to them.
With such terrifying strength, one foot could crack the concrete floor, and it would be easy to kill them.
The strong man looked pained, and everyone behind him was silent.
"I'll give you three minutes to think it over carefully. Don't wait until later." Xiang Tian said coldly, walking towards the people wearing peaked caps behind him.
"You, you, you, stop." They pointed their sticks toward the sky with trembling hands, and kept retreating.
"Aren't you also soldiers?" Xiang Tian looked cold and his eyes were like swords. Looking at their young physical features, an unknown fire ignited in his heart.
He kicked the young man at the front to the sky and said coldly: "Go away, I have already remembered you guys. Next time, I will crush your necks with my own hands."
"Hurry...go."
Several people hurriedly carried the man rolling on the ground, got in the car and left.
"Xiangtian, they..." Lin Xiyan had already gotten out of the car and walked to his side.
Xiangtian did not deliberately respond to Lin Xiyan's words, but just looked at her beautiful face lightly.
"Have you thought clearly? Do you choose to believe me or continue to be wrong?"
Then, he set his sights on the group of strong men. Each one of them was like a child who had made a mistake, with his head lowered, ashamed to see them.
"Keep your heads up, everyone." Xiang Tian scolded sternly.
"Soldiers are proud. Unless you die in battle, who can make you bow your head?"
Xiangtian glanced at everyone again and snorted: "Or, this is how your army teaches you!"
"You are not allowed to insult us..." The strong man who wanted to retort loudly swallowed the rest of his words. Speaking of the former team, they were indeed not worthy of being soldiers.
"What, are you embarrassed to say it? Are you afraid that you will discredit the army?" Xiang Tian's eyes were full of hatred.
"The country teaches you skills so that one day you can defend your homeland instead of falling into the sword of those powerful and wealthy people."
The sonorous and powerful words hit their faces, and every word was heartbreaking. The strong men remained silent, staring at the ground, not daring to look up to the sky.
Xiangtian sighed, turned to look at Lin Xiyan beside him and said, "Why are you down here?"
"Come down and take a look." Lin Xiyan said softly. The current Xiangtian seemed strange but familiar to her.
"Don't stay too far away from me."
"I know."
After that, three minutes were almost up. He lit a cigarette toward the sky and said calmly: "Tell me, did Wang Haiping send you here? Where are your families and what happened."
Finally, someone couldn't bear the pressure, his eyes turned red, and he muttered: "It's him."
"Sure enough." Xiang Tian's eyelids twitched, and he continued to listen with anger in his heart.
The man said carefully: "I never thought about doing something harmful to nature after retiring from the army."
Xiangtian's brows also softened slightly.
"We have martial arts skills, but no place to display them. We are very grateful to our motherland for teaching us our skills, but what can we do if we are out of touch with society." Someone laughed at themselves.
"Sometimes I hate it, why the country doesn't leave us behind." The man said unwillingly.
Xiang Tian was silent. Not everyone was like him, or those second-generation red men who advocated for military careers.
It is always those three or two people who stand out from the ordinary.
So what about the remaining people... they dedicated their best years, but what this society gave them in return was cruel reality.
"Didn't you get retirement pay? It shouldn't be less based on your military age."
"Oh, according to the regulations, it is indeed quite a lot. Each of us veterans can get two to three hundred thousand, and even Luo Xiong can get four hundred thousand."
"but…"
"That's enough, don't say any more." Luo Xiong's eyes were red, his fists were purple, and his nails seemed to bleed.
"Luo Xiong, we've already reached this point, so what can we do if we tell you." Some people couldn't help it anymore and kept hiding it until now, and they seemed to have found an outlet.
It turned out that the government departments were corrupt and exploited at all levels, and what finally fell into the hands of these veterans was far less than the number in the report.
"We brothers have no choice but to go to the construction site to do some simple labor work."
"But the boss keeps delaying the payment of wages and has not settled the bill. What can we do?"
"We have repeatedly asked for the debt to no avail, and our family members were threatened in return. We had no choice but to compromise."
"Bastard." Lin Xiyan cursed angrily. After hearing so much, she felt deeply chilled for this group of people.
They were all good men at first, but their edges were rubbed away by life.
"We were almost at the end of our rope. It was Luo Xiong who introduced us to Wang Haiping. Although he did some work that went against his conscience, he at least maintained his livelihood."
Xiangtian's chest was heaving, his voice was hoarse, and his eyes were filled with anger: "Isn't there anyone who can handle this matter? Where is your old leader? He won't stand up for you?"
Luo Xiong sneered and laughed: "Can a strong dragon defeat a local snake? With officials protecting each other, who can you count on? It's better to rely on yourself."
"On your own? Listen to Wang Haiping and come and kill us." Xiang Tianqian smiled urgently, pulled Lin Xiyan beside him, and said: "Who is she? Do you know, the president of Xiyan Group, Lin Xiyan! If something happens to her and the stock market is in turmoil, what do you think will happen to the thousands of people under her command, all of them will lose their jobs!"
