"Hmph, bad luck!"
This time the injury was more serious, and Chihong had to nurse him for more than half a year, during which he could only lie on the ground and be a beggar.
It was even worse than when I was doing odd jobs. In the past, I only had to work hard, and although I couldn't eat well, I could still eat well. After becoming a beggar, I realized that people passing by would not even look at this poor man on the ground.
One bun for three days?
One bun for five days?
Like a dog dragging his injured body around to beg, just to fill his stomach and get the pitiful scraps.
At this moment, Chihong felt the coldness of human nature, as biting as ice.
Biting like ice.
"You loser!"
"ah!"
A man with a full beard trampled Chihong under his feet. His sternum, which had not yet been fully healed, was shattered again. Chihong was unable to hold on and was pressed to the ground.
"Which uncle?"
After many days of painful experience, Chihong forgot about the previous transaction. The person who could not offend was extremely angry at the moment. Without saying a word, he severely broke Chihong's hands and feet with a stick, and then walked away.
Only when the figure faded away did Chihong recognize him as his employer that day.
Chihong realized what it means to be powerless. His hands and feet were broken. In addition to enduring severe pain, he could not walk or crawl. Let alone begging, he could not even eat the steamed buns thrown on the ground. It was so miserable that Chihong could not bear it and gave up. Struggled.
"Why bother? Why do these people do this to me?"
Chihong's consciousness became confused. When he thought about the people he met in the past, they either looked down on him or hated himself. Why should he be treated so unfairly? Why can those people eat spicy food and drink spicy food? Why can the army openly deduct wages? Why do people passing by ignore me? Why doesn't God give all living beings an equal opportunity?
Why should you suffer so much?
Hatred, Chihong began to hate the people around him who ignored him.
call!
Akahiro fainted.
………………
"Don't run!"
Shops in the downtown area have been frequented by thieves recently, and a lot of food has been lost. Although it is not valuable, the shopkeepers are very unhappy and have arranged for many long-term workers to squat in the warehouse. Sure enough, they found a thin thief at night. The thief has nimble hands and feet. , he looked like a habitual criminal at first sight. After gently opening the door, he ran backwards instead of rushing in. The long-term workers thought they had been discovered and chased them out one after another. The thief was stunned for a moment. It was just a test at first, but he didn't expect that there was someone hidden inside. , quickly climbed over the wall and fled outside.
"Don't run!"
The thief was thin and very agile. The long-term workers were too heavy to climb the wall. By the time they opened the door and chased them out, they had already moved some distance away. The thief ran towards the mountains and forests. There was insufficient light at night and he quickly disappeared!
"Humph, you're lucky!"
The long-term workers returned to the shop cursing.
Zhenghui ran for a long time before he dared to stop. This was the first time he was discovered since he became a thief. Although he had learned from others before and was on guard, he was still extremely excited and his blood was boiling. As for that, it was just a few Bags of rice, but also sent people to stay guard, doesn't it cost money to hire people?
Although Zhenghui was unhappy, he did not hate the long-term workers. After all, stealing was a dishonorable thing. Zhenghui would not have chosen this path if he had no other choice.
Zhenghui is young, just ten years old, and like Chihong, lives in poverty.
I used to work odd jobs in various major stores. It was not easy for my employer to see that I was a child. Every time I gave him a few more copper coins. My life was not easy, but it was okay. I could eat meat buns from time to time, and I was very satisfied. .
However, there was an extra person recently. Not only did I become nervous about eating, but I also had to buy some medicinal materials to treat that person's injuries. The copper coins I originally saved were spent in an instant, and I only bought less than a few days' worth of medicine. It was not enough at all. The other party's body was getting weaker and weaker, so Zhenghui had no choice but to do things in the dark, thinking that he would cure his injuries in the future and slowly make money to return to the store, but he didn't want to almost get caught.
"Phew, it's so dangerous!"
Although Zhenghui is lonely, he has a very peaceful mind. He has a pink and rosy face and looks very kind. He often helps others everywhere and many children are willing to play with him. He is a child at first and has a simple heart. Apart from eating, he spends all day He was jumping around and very lively. People around him liked this kid very much and told Zhenghui many self-defense skills. He should retreat immediately when opening the door. This is a good way to guard against traps.
Of course, the person who taught him didn't know that this kid was used to steal.
The inner panic made Zhenghui dare not take action anymore, and he returned to his place of residence in a panic.
A dilapidated house, most of the roof was scattered, and only a long lock was left on the door. Not only could it not block outsiders, but it could not block the severe cold. Apart from an old cabinet, there were only straw stalks on the floor. Outsiders may find it dirty and messy, but these are very important to Zhenghui because he cannot afford a charcoal stove, which is much warmer than the cold ground in winter.
At this time, an equally weak body was lying on the straw stalk, looking worriedly at Zhenghui who came back.
"How about it?"
Seeing Zhenghui come back empty-handed, Chihong realized that this time he failed. Success or failure was not important. The key was that nothing happened to Zhenghui. Chihong also worked as a thief for a while. He was worried that Zhenghui's thin body could not withstand the fierce sticks of those people. . m.
"It was so dangerous, I was discovered, but I ran out during the chaos!"
"That's good!"
Chihong had given up long ago and didn't care about his injuries, but he didn't want to implicate Zhenghui, the person who had taken care of him for a long time.
After being knocked unconscious that day, Chihong originally thought he was dead, but he didn't want to wake up in a warm place. The house was very old, but Chihong felt extremely warm. The silly-looking man in front of him was holding a bowl of hot food. Rice, preparing to feed myself.
Chihong didn't want to eat and closed his mouth tightly. Those painful things appeared in his mind little by little. Why did he persist?
"Don't eat?"
Zhenghui thought that Chihong didn't like eating. After waiting for a long time, Chihong's thin body finally gave in. He opened his mouth and swallowed the rice bit by bit. Severe pain came from his chest, and the bloody rice was spurted out. , Chihong didn’t believe that anyone was willing to save him.
"Are you injured?"
Chihong nodded and said painfully: "I was beaten!"
"Then you have a good rest and I'll find you some medicine!"
Regardless of the reason or reward, Zhenghui's behavior made Chihong, who originally thought he could see the world clearly, confused again.
"Who is this person?"
Curious, very curious!
"Why did you save me?"
Chihong asked after Zhenghui returned.
Zhenghui: "Ah? Why don't I save you?"
Zhenghui's answer surprised Chihong, why not save him? Does this person think that anyone should be saved?
Many of the passers-by were from big business trips and wealthy families. It was more than enough to save a beggar, but in the end, he was saved by the same child. Isn't this a great irony?
The resentment and pain accumulated in Chihong's heart were dispersed by the sudden intrusion of Zhenghui. Although the prejudice is still there, he will not be so impulsive in the future, no matter what he does or the choices he needs to face.
Akahiro is a paranoid weirdo!
Zhenghui is a paranoid weirdo!
One is as upright as his last name, while the other is confused in the middle of the road. Even he doesn't know where to go from now on.
Some people died, but not completely...
