Chapter 15 [Accumulate merit by killing evil]
After a night of recovery, Ge Xian's injuries improved somewhat under the treatment of Xiaoyao Jue, but he was still very weak for the time being and his spiritual consciousness could not be expanded. According to Laura, country S is currently very closed to Roissard, and it feels like being beaten and scared, and even daily travel has been affected.
But no matter how hard it was, he had to leave. Ge Xian slightly changed his hair color and eyebrows the next day, which was still quite different from his own image, and then left accompanied by Laura.
He still decided to bring Laura back to China. Whether he wanted to be punished or not depends on Xu Mengjie's intention.
Xu Mengjie was also very conflicted about Laura's betrayal. After all, in the past few years in the Xu Group, especially around her, Laura had done her best, and she already had a master-servant relationship similar to sisters.
Laura was also willing to return to China, even if she accepted Xu Mengjie's punishment, so the two of them traveled together.
This residential area is a shantytown, that is, a slum. Usually, gangsters maintain order here. Country S rarely deploys police forces here, which makes the place smoky and a hotbed of crime.
The single room Laura rented was on the second floor. In fact, when you walked outside, you could see that the so-called building was just a renovated abandoned container. However, this kind of house was considered high-end, and there were many worse ones.
These houses include physical houses made of wooden houses and cement boards, and even "houses" made of cardboard and newspapers that can only be called nests, but these people are still considered property owners.
There are even more people living on the streets, truly living under the covers. It is said that such people usually live less than three years. This is a frightening aspect of Country S.
Coming down the stairs, a bunch of little kids with their upper body or even lower body naked came over to beg for money. After all, those who can afford such a "big house" are the rich people in the slums, and they are the key targets of begging.
Ge Xian originally wanted to ignore them, but when he saw the eyes of these children, even though he knew that the money they asked for would never reach their hands, he couldn't help but give some, one yuan of Chinese yuan notes to each of them.
The Chinese dollar is used in many countries and is one of the major international currencies. Here, the Chinese dollar is very valuable. One dollar can be worth a hundred dollars.
Sure enough, when these children saw Hua Yuan, their eyes suddenly lit up, and they even knelt on the ground and kowtowed. When the adults around them saw this scene, they were filled with envy and wanted to come forward to beg, but they were kicked away by Laura.
"Don't give money to these beggars. They are all controlled. Once you give too much, you will be targeted and become a fat sheep." Laura complained.
"Sorry, I just couldn't hold it back." Ge Xian coughed awkwardly and walked away quickly to avoid being blocked by other beggars again.
Road, or street, well, these two words are too exaggerated to describe the road in front of us. In fact, it is the road trodden by people and livestock. It is only about five meters wide. The ground is very dirty, with all kinds of food residues and domestic garbage. , there is even urine and the like, the smell is unpleasant, I don’t know if there are people there, I guess there are.
Ge Xian frowned and had to take out a piece of clean paper, fold it up, and cover his mouth and nose. Laura was a little better, but only a little better, and she seemed to be trying not to inhale too much of this air.
This section of the road is very long, with people and animals passing by, stretching out the long queue, and there is no end in sight.
"Someone is coming." Laura reminded, and then motioned for Ge Xian to blend into the crowd.
Ge Xian didn't ask any questions and followed Laura closely. Both of them were at the top of their game. Soon, after several moves, they disappeared into the passing crowd.
A hundred meters away from them, there was a group of men with fierce looks, carrying sticks and knives in their hands. People around them were so scared that they walked away from them and did not dare to approach them.
"Damn it, where is that couple, the one I saw just now." A man with red curly hair, dark skin, wearing a cheap plaid short-sleeved shirt and a pair of beige trousers, seemed to be the leader of this group of people.
Several subordinates with colorful hair next to him were analyzing each other one by one. The red-haired man slapped him on the forehead and cursed: "They are all trash. They will even be lost. Please inform me." The people in front are looking for two tourists from China, and I will stop them if they are suspicious. These two are fat sheep."
"Boss, China is very protective of its shortcomings. Aren't you afraid of offending them?" a lean man asked uneasily.
Snapped!
A slap came over and the man was knocked dizzy. Hongmao sneered: "It doesn't matter whether he is a Chinese country or not, as long as he comes to my territory, if he is a dragon, he has to lie down..."
As a result, this dirty road quickly became tense, and a temporary checkpoint was set up to check whether any of the people passing by looked like Chinese tourists.
Normally, tourists would not come here, and the tour guides from country S would not take the group here. It can only be said that the tourists who come here are either left alone or lost, and they are weak anyway. type.
Ge Xian and Laura found that they were still blocked in front of them, and the already crowded road suddenly became even more congested.
Everyone, both men and women, old and young, became gloomy. After a little inquiring, Laura told Ge Xian that this kind of temporary checkpoint setting was very common, and most of the time it became an opportunity for these checkpoint guards to enrich their own pockets, making the people passing by miserable.
Unfortunately, there is no justice here, only the powerful and the weak.
Ge Xian saw with his own eyes that some pretty girls among the common people were taken advantage of by these guards and then blackmailed. It would be fine if you are a paying customer, but it would be terrible if you are a pauper. They will classify you as a suspicious person and put you in a cage on the side.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of men and women were imprisoned in two huge cages next to the temporary checkpoint. The men were on the left and the women were in the cage on the right.
"Suck it up and try to cause as few troubles as possible. Although Country S is claiming to the outside world that the Empire State Building was attacked by aliens, many countries know that they are telling lies for the sake of face. They have nothing to do with China and China's cultivation. Or even developed feelings of hostility towards Chinese people." Seeing that Ge Xian couldn't suppress it, Laura had no choice but to explain.
Ge Xian was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Is it because of the incident at the Empire State Building that the Chinese people here have suffered so badly?"
"That's not true. It has always been the case. It's just that it wasn't as exaggerated before. The most admired people in S country are overseas people like me. Chinese people are timid and fearful by nature, but they can also work hard to get rich, so they always become predators. Target." Laura continued to explain, but after hearing this, Ge Xian's face darkened. He thought that with the current status of China, the Chinese and their descendants outside should not be like this, but unexpectedly, the reality was still too cruel.
Unfortunately, I am just a cultivator and cannot change the overall situation.
The interrogation was very careful and even somewhat repeated, and a large number of innocent people were implicated. The worst offenders were naturally women, who were frequently harassed by these guards.
A scream came, and then many people focused their attention, including Ge Xian and Laura.
A girl who was about fifteen years old was dragged by a guard towards the nearby woods. Many people knew what they were going to do, but no one dared to resist.
The girl had a frail grandfather, who was kneeling on the ground, pulling the girl, trying to protect her.
"You old fool, let me go?" When the guard couldn't hold him anymore, he ferociously took out the rough baton on his waist. It was probably made in a rough way and was not a special baton at all.
He raised the stick high and roared at the old man who was hugging the girl tightly to prevent her from being dragged away: "I will count to three, and if you don't let go, you old immortal, I will send you to see the King of Hell. "
Although Ge Xian had only been in Roissard for a short time, he had a strong talent for languages. He had already learned the language of country S to some extent, so he naturally understood it at this time.
"You scum and scum of society, don't harm my granddaughter. Let her go. If you want my life, take it and let her go!" The old man was very stubborn and could no longer care about life or death.
The girl burst into tears because her shoulders were shaking because of fear. Now she saw that the guard man's baton was about to be smashed down, and she couldn't stop crying.
"Let go or not? One!"
The old man hugged the girl tightly and closed his eyes.
"Two!" The people around him also closed their eyes, seeing that the tragedy was about to happen before their eyes.
There was a murderous look in his eyes, and Laura wanted to dissuade him again, but found that she had no reason to dissuade him.
three!
When the third shout came out, everyone thought that the old man would definitely die, but it was the guard who screamed, and then other guards. It was not until a tall man appeared in front of them and took back his feet that they I realized that someone had taken action.
The cage was opened and the people inside were released. Ge Xian signaled them to escape from here immediately, but he had no plans to escape for the time being.
"Why don't you leave?" Laura asked anxiously.
"Get rid of these scum first, otherwise we will still encounter this situation." Ge Xian said calmly, jumped directly on the relatively clean table in front of the guard, sat cross-legged on it, adjusted his breath and exercise, and did his best. Maybe take the time to heal yourself.
Boom!
Gunfire rang out in the distance. It seemed that the news here was leaked quite quickly. Those who were chasing them just now arrived.
The surrounding people were running towards the woods on both sides in a chaotic manner. Many people were reluctant to leave, but hid inside to see the result.
Only then did they realize that one of Ge Xian and Luo La looked like a Chinese, and the other was a common foreign woman from overseas.
Ge Xian was tall and handsome, and he stepped forward just now, which immediately made many people, especially the women, very worried about him, fearing that such a beautiful and brave man would die in the hands of a group of executioners who were inferior to pigs and dogs.
Boom boom...
There were many motorcycles, cars, old-fashioned jeeps that had been eliminated long ago, and even mountain bikes. About hundreds of people slowly surrounded them from the front, back, left, and right.
Laura pulled out her pistol, used the table as a cover, and looked around nervously. From her professional perspective, she should have entered the woods early in the morning to play guerrilla warfare with these people. Of course, she knew that Ge Xian was different. For a person, a mere mortal is nothing. The key is that he is injured and has not recovered yet.
"Hahaha..." This is how annoying people are. Before the person arrived, the laughter came first. The red-haired man in a very fashionable outfit drove the best used jeep to a distance from Gexian. A hundred meters away, after all, they all saw that Laura had a gun in her hand, and it was a high-end agent-level gun.
Although they didn't dare to show their heads, they hid behind the jeep. Hong Mao shouted: "Chinese people, be honest and surrender. I can make the decision to save your life. The foreign girl next to you can also survive and live a good life." Happiness, of course, is underneath me, hahaha..."
Suddenly, there was a burst of obscene laughter all around. Although Laura could bear the insult, she still felt a little uncontrollable when she was so humiliated by these scum in public.
At this time, Ge Xian opened his eyes and said in the local dialect that was not too fluent: "Tell me your name and tell me why you are chasing me?"
"Hmph, it doesn't matter if I tell you, Chinese people, listen up. My name is Ogema, and I am the ruler of this ten-mile radius. Everyone who passes by my territory must pay taxes and other fees. You two are in private. You didn't report that you were staying in my territory, and you wanted to sneak away, which of course offended me. If you are wise, hand over all your belongings now, keep the foreign girl, and then I will send you to a safe place , Don’t worry, someone will take you home.” Ogma used poor words to try to influence Ge Xian.
"Sending me home means sending me back to the west, right?" Ge Xian sneered.
"Where are you? Chinese people are very noble. We don't dare to kill you. We will send you home safely." Ogema said insincerely.
Ge Xian nodded, and Ogma thought he agreed, so he sent someone forward to accept the property and Laura. The person who was sent out suddenly beamed with joy, and the person who was not selected suddenly felt regretful. Everyone saw him walking proudly towards Ge Xian and Luo La with his butt on his back.
Boom!
There was a gunshot, and the man slowly fell down and was hit in the heart. He was not killed in one blow, but suffered for tens or dozens of seconds. How could these scum be allowed to die so cheaply? ?
"Kill them all!" When Ogema saw his men being beaten to death unceremoniously, he immediately became furious and ordered a collective shooting.
Bah...
Bullets were fired at Ge Xian and Laura intensively, and the table turned into a hornet's nest in an instant. The people inside were probably also smashed to pieces, right?
"It's really unlucky, I didn't catch anything." Ogema felt that today was not going well. They were two fat sheep, but now they were beaten into a pile of minced meat, which was not interesting at all.
He felt that he could not understand his hatred, so he said to his men: "Take the corpses of the Chinese and the foreign girl and feed them to the dogs and birds."
"Yes, boss... wait, boss, there is a situation... ah!" screams sounded out one after another, and Ogma's ears kept hearing the sound of strong energy penetrating the air, making a whooshing sound.
Ogma saw that his men kept falling down, and there was nothing wrong with them. What the hell is this?
He couldn't help but lift up the only submachine gun, roared and rolled to the side, and then fired forward.
Da da da da…
The bullets shot towards the opposite side crazily, but were blocked by a bulge in the ground. Yes, he read it right. The Chinese man actually shook the ground like a blanket with one hand, using the road surface to block the bullets.
Then his free hand seemed to be holding a stone or something, which kept popping out.
call out!
Poof!
Ogma's shooting stopped suddenly, and he felt a sharp pain in his throat. He subconsciously reached out and touched his neck, and found that the blood in his body continued to rush out, making a sizzling sound.
"What the hell, are you still human?" Ogma tried his best to say these words before dying, and then he fell down, and the blood broke through the wound, stimulating like a fountain.
call out……
Ge Xian was still killing, and the gangsters who turned around and ran away couldn't escape at all. They were constantly killed by Ge Xian's super-accurate finger snaps. After ten minutes, the entire road became quiet, and even the birds in the woods on both sides stopped chirping. , the strong smell of blood spread, and many people vomited.
"Let's go, you can only do so much." Luo La reminded him when he saw Ge Xian's eyes turned red.
Ge Xian came back to his senses and found that he once again had a lot of murders on his hands. Since he started practicing Taoism, his murders had been increasing, and he didn't know how many more murders he would add in the future. This feeling of guilt made him There is a feeling in the dark, which will bring disadvantages to his practice.
However, he does not regret it. Sometimes he cannot turn a blind eye to certain things that are outraged by both humans and gods. Killing is not what I want. However, it is not what I want to ignore the innocent and the weak and be trampled on.
Even if there is a sin of killing, I am willing to bear it. I just want to clear my heart.
Ge Xian and Laura drifted away, and people from the woods on both sides appeared one after another. They soon came to the road and looked at hundreds of fallen criminals, some of whom were even still breathing.
When the old man was the first to lift a stone and hit Ogma's head, more people began to vent their anger. Countless people lifted stones and hit these villains, directly crushing their corpses into the road. Then these people spontaneously picked up soil and buried it. After half a day, the road seemed to be more tidy. Everyone returned to their daily lives as if nothing had happened, trampling on the evil people who had trampled on their dignity and lives every day with their own feet!
Ge Xian and Laura didn't go too far and saw this scene.
"Do you think these people can wake up?" Ge Xian asked.
"It's difficult. Those things just now were not courage, but venting, pure venting. Once they encounter new forces, they will still habitually choose to surrender." Laura has seen too many such examples, and the numb people cannot They will awaken themselves unless a wolf appears. Unfortunately, Ge Xian is not their alpha wolf.
Ge Xian sighed, and the two continued on their way. What happened in the ten-mile territory has not spread. Maybe it will have to wait until a few months later. For the lords of the slums, a dead lord is a good lord, because that This means that they can expand their territory.
For the leaders of Roissard, they wished that all these lords were dead, so that they could improve the appearance of the city. This is how the world is.
