Chapter 263 263: Do what I like [please vote]
In January of that year, two younger siblings starved to death.
In early February of the same year, my grandmother died of illness.
A few days after my grandmother’s funeral, in late February, my grandfather was working in the fields when wild boars trampled his crops. In order to keep hope for the year, he tried to drive away the wild boars, but he died as a result. When the family found him, the old and thin body was curled up stiffly in the ground, with most of its torso eaten by wild boars, its eyes wide open in pain...
Successive blows blinded the entire family. Heavy clouds.
After going through all the hardships until the eve of the harvest.
Result——
Several days of heavy rain broke down the embankments and flooded the crops.
My father has been staying near the farmland since the first day of rain. He had to bear a lot of debt for his hard work in this area, his farmland was flooded, his harvest was destroyed, more than one family lost their food rations, and the heavy agricultural tax on tenant farming crushed him even more.
He went to the ground in the rain to rescue.
But all this is in vain.
Infected with wind and cold, one cannot afford to fall ill.
A debt collector came to collect debts. Bai Su's only brother who was still alive got into a conflict and was hit on the head. The debt collector tried to drag Aniang away to pay off the debt, and his father was angry to death.
On the second day after my father was buried, my brother couldn’t hold on any longer.
Aniang hanged herself at the head of the village in despair.
There is only one lonely Bai Su left in the family.
In order to avoid the debt collectors who came to arrest people, she ran all the way to the deep mountains and forests without daring to look back. Fortunately, Bai Su was rescued by an unknown woman passing by when she was about to starve to death.
The latter took pity on her plight and adopted her.
What Bai Su learned was taught by his mentor and adoptive mother.
When she succeeds in her studies, she will help the poor people together. Outsiders say they are thieves, but the adoptive mother only wants to have a clear conscience.
It’s just——
Two years ago, I accidentally encountered a third-class hairpin, and my mentor took her away with serious injuries. After that, she couldn’t bear to fall ill, and she couldn’t survive the cold winter. Before she died, she told Bai Su that she had no regrets in her life, and the only one she couldn't worry about was Bai Su.
Let her return to the life of an ordinary woman and live a stable life.
Better than being a snitch with a blade that licks blood.
One mistake can lead to death.
Bai Su was a little shaken at first, but after seeing so many ordinary people suffering all kinds of oppression and hardship, she knew she couldn't adapt.
Still using the name of his mentor "Wu Ming".
Step in during the day and take action at night.
As long as she is rich and unkind, that is her goal.
The ill-gotten gains were stolen and she tried every means to exchange them for items needed to help the people. However, she was still young after all, and her experience was not as sophisticated as her mentor. She made a mistake not long ago and was unlucky enough to alert several warriors. Those who dare to be brave will be hunted down all the way.
The only good thing is that these brave warriors are not high-level and are just low-level warriors. But Bai Su is an ordinary person after all. Even if he has acquired exquisite martial arts, he is still forced into a dead end due to physical limitations. Jump into a waterfall...
Follow the waterfall to the stream.
Finally, he was picked up by the people under Shen Tang’s tent.
This is Bai Su’s life experience.
After hearing this, Shen Tang was a little shocked and exclaimed: "Is there such a strange woman in the world as the White Snake's mentor? It's a pity that I haven't had the opportunity to meet her."
Looking at Lady Bai Su's speech and behavior, her logic is clear and she doesn't look like an illiterate, so most of the people who raised her also have some knowledge. A woman with knowledge and martial arts, one person and one sword, punishes rape, eliminates evil, and acts as a hero...
This is quite rare and rare.
Thinking of his mentor, Bai Su's expression darkened.
Since the death of his mentor, the world has become vast and there is no place to call home. Bai Su returned to his hometown for the first time after being away for many years. The situation in Heyin is more chaotic and severe than before, evil bandits are rampant, and every household seems to be repeating the same old path of Bai Su's family.
However, their family was not as lucky as Bai Su to be adopted by the unknown heroine. The more he learned about the lives of the people in Heyin, the angrier Bai Su became. But she is single and weak, so no matter what she does, it will only be a drop in the bucket, and may even cause trouble for others.
The gangster kept an eye on the lonely, old and weak.
Bai Su Qianqiu secretly sent the things over, and within two days there would be gangsters eyeing the "windfall" in their hands, a small vat of wheat grains, a bag of beans, dozens of copper coins... all of them Loot and steal. Even though Bai Su taught those gangsters a lesson, they still kept restraining them.
Because the neighbors around these old, weak, lonely and widowed people can become "gangsters", and they will be robbed and cheated as long as they can't hold on...
Having seen this too much, Bai Su said to the river Yin is desperate.
This place won't get any better.
But Bai Su didn't want to go anywhere else.
Because it’s the same everywhere.
He Yin...
At least it is the burial place of her blood relatives.
Hearing that the destination of Shen Tang and others was Heyin, Bai Su stopped them without even thinking. Evil bandits are rampant there, and there are other forces supporting these evil bandits above their heads and behind their backs. The merchants passing by are considered lucky not only to save their money, but also to save their lives.
If Shen Tang goes...
Is there any fate?
After all, she was the benefactor who saved her, and Bai Su didn't want to see her die, but this benefactor didn't intend to listen to her.
Shen Tang said: "But I have to go."
Bai Su thought of a possibility.
"The benefactor is also from Heyin?"
Or is he going to seek refuge with relatives far away in Heyin?
Shen Tang said: "Of course not."
Bai Su looked a little anxious when he heard this.
“Then why?”
Do you have to go to Heyin to seek death? ? ?
Shen Tang smiled and said: "Of course it is to take office."
Bai Su: "..."
Bai Su: "???"
Bai Su: "!!!"
She was so shocked by this sentence that she completely lost her expression.
It took a long time to react.
Her eyes were wide open, and she opened and closed her mouth several times without spitting out a single word. She didn't know what to say at all - she was a thief, and was saved by an official? Not only was he rescued, but he also talked in front of others about how to rob the rich and give to the poor, and how to get started?
Bai Su's nerves at this time were as sensitive as those of Su Shang with fried hair. His expression was full of resistance and panic, and he wanted to escape to the horizon.
Gu Chi chuckled inwardly.
At this time, Bai Su suddenly discovered a big problem with trembling eyelids - the benefactor said that he was going to Heyin to take office, but wasn't the benefactor a pretty and gorgeous young lady?
How does a young lady take office?
Or is the young lady actually a female concubine?
In other words -
Bai Su's eyes were almost glued to Shen Tang's face, and it took him a while to notice the extremely inconspicuous inscription on Shen Tang's waist.
He spat out a sentence: "The slave family...has offended the benefactor."
Shen Tang looked at her puzzled: "Where did the offense occur?"
Bai Sudao: "Mistaken the gender of the benefactor." Shen Tang : "..."
No, no, you are not wrong.
But she was too lazy to explain. Anyway, time would prove whether she was a boy or a girl. She just hoped that these people would not be shocked when they knew the truth.
When he thought of that scene, Shen Tang's depressed mood improved slightly. Her eyebrows were cheerful: "Mrs. Bai is both a native of Heyin and a knight in the countryside. She must know the territory of Heyin quite well. I have an unkind favor..."
Knowing that Shen Tang is an "official", Bai Sugang let go His guard rose again, and he looked at Shen Tang cautiously, not daring to speak too fully: "My benefactor, please tell me, as long as it doesn't violate morality or my heart, I will do my best." . ”
“It’s not an embarrassing thing, and it won’t go against White Snake’s moral principles. I just need to tell you everything about He Yin’s situation, as long as you know it. After taking office, he took good care of He Yin and knew himself and his enemy. He was always victorious. I was worried before, but I didn't expect God to be merciful and send White Lady here..."
It really solved her urgent need.
Bai Su did not agree immediately, but pretended to be weak and about to faint. Shen Tang didn't expect Bai Su to give an answer right away, so he went down the steps and asked Lin Feng to send someone to take good care of Bai Su. Let’s wait until Bai Su’s health gets better.
Lin Feng said: "Please don't worry, Mr. Lang."
Shen Tang patted Lin Feng's head encouragingly, stood up and left the car. Gu Chi left the prescription and got out of the car. He followed Shen Tang and said, "That Bai Su is pretending to be unconscious."
If Shen Tang's eyes hadn't stopped him, he would have exposed it on the spot.
Shen Tang said: "How could I not know? It's just that you shouldn't push too hard. This kind of thing is more interesting if you and I are willing. Forcing people to speak would be like a bully bullying the weak. Mr. Gu is really half-hearted. I don’t know what “love the fragrance and cherish the jade” means. ”
Being comatose is an excuse.
Is it embarrassing to expose it on the spot?
Gu Chi showed an expression that said, "What you are saying is really disgusting." He said bluntly: "It depends on who you are treating..."
A person whose position is unclear is No matter whether they are men or women, they are not worthy of pity, let alone his face. Once the stage is demolished, they will be demolished!
Shen Tang laughed when he heard this: "If Bai Su's confession of life is true, when her injury improves and she sees the people following her, she will know who I am. It is the easiest and fastest way to pry open a person's heart in the world. The only way to be on guard is to 'play into his favour'..."
Since Bai Su regards the eight words "acting chivalrously, robbing the rich and giving to the poor" as her moral principles and implements them from beginning to end, Shen Tang is not worried that Bai Su will dislike her. Bai Su will not only like her, appreciate her, and admire her, but he will also regard her as a clean figure in the officialdom.
In a turbulent world where everyone is evil and struggling in the quagmire, who wouldn’t like a wise leader who is just and honest, loves the people like a son, and has the ambition to turn the tide? The narcissistic thoughts in Shen Tang's heart made Gu Chi's facial features almost wrinkle into a ball.
He said: "Mr. Shen, you don't have to be so secretive."
Don't say everything.
He is scared!
Gu Chi was very sure that Shen Tang said that on purpose.
He was so thick-skinned that he had no way to complain.
Shen Tang said: "I mean what I mean is what I say."
Gu Chi: "..."
Blowing the cold and biting night wind, Shen Tang crossed his arms across his chest, I walked with Gu Chi by the stream and chatted.
When she said that sentence, a rich smile spread across her face, and her eyes were brighter than the stars in the sky above her head.
Gu Chi looked at her, his tone was faint and a little resentful: "Did Mr. Shen just say - 'In a muddy world where everyone is evil, who is struggling in the quagmire, who wouldn't? Like to be fair and honest, love the people like a son , the Ming Zhu who has the ambition to turn the tide', and 'the easiest and fastest way to break a person's guard is to do what he likes'? Is Shen Lang 'doing what I like'?"
He really doubted something.
Weren’t Qi Shan and Chu Yao so fooled?
Shen Tang smiled and tilted his head.
He blinked his black eyes innocently.
"Watching the tide is so good, who wouldn't like it? It's just——" She kicked Gu Chi's question back, "Are you willing to 'do what I like'?"
Gu Chi: "..."
Previously, he said "Mr. Gu", revealing her true identity, and then she said "Wang Chao" - Gu Chi really doubted that if his answer was negative, would Shen Lang know? Will you take a sip of wine on the spot and send him to the West? This is not impossible...
Gu Chi did not answer directly, but just said: "Shen Lang is still young, so he doesn't know how people's hearts can change. You can keep what you say now, but you will really have a high position in the future. , you will know how hateful a person can be if he has no secrets in front of him.”
Fear, fear, disgust...
Until I hate it to death!
Shen Tang said bluntly: "For a magnanimous person who says whatever he thinks in his heart, this is nothing."
Furthermore——
How "hateful" can it be more hateful than Yuan Liang's "killing the master"?
There are already so many debuffs stacked... It doesn't matter if you add one more, you don't have to worry about too many lice. I just hope that in the future I can get to know a few scribes who are normal and not so useless.
Shen Tang’s request is very humble.
Hearing this, Gu Chi did not answer immediately.
The two were silent until he opened his mouth to break it.
Gu Chi asked: "Gu has a question."
Shen Tang: "You ask."
"Is Lang Shen a man or a woman?"
Shen Tang: "..."
She is still thinking about what Gu Chi wants What question should she ask to test her "meaning and speaking"? She has been struggling with this for a long time? ? ?
That’s it? ? ?
Shen Tang looked depressed: "Female!"
He emphasized: "The goods are genuine and fair!"
Gu Chi: "..."
Listen Shen Tang personally admitted that Gu Chi still felt a bit like he was dreaming, even though he had already learned the true gender from Shen Tang's voice.
Shen Tang was very curious.
"Look at my face. With such good looks, how could it be that I'm not from a girl's family?" Good guy, I can even come up with a "boy-female" reason to explain this face.
Gu Chi: "..."
Shen Tang said again: "If I can't make you believe it, I can tell you a secret, will you listen?"
Gu Chi: "...How big a secret is it?"
Shen Tang thought for a while: "If I still can't keep your heart after hearing this, I can only keep your body."< br>
Gu Chi heard this and decisively chose not to listen.
"How can Chi not believe that my lord is so sincere and frank?"
Shen Tang: "..."
After spending the night repairing, we set off at dawn the next day.
Eat dry food while walking without wasting time.
Bai Su felt the carriage shaking. She woke up from a long and chaotic dream. As her five senses returned to their original positions one by one, she felt that the footsteps of the team seemed to be too many. He reluctantly sat up.
The team she is in is at the back of the center.
Bai Su carefully opened the car curtain, and what she saw was not the strong men she had imagined, or even servant guards, but a group of thin and haggard common people.
Most of them are old, weak, women and children.
The older one has a full head of hair.
Young, still in his infancy.
They were walking in the middle, and on the outside were a group of young men wearing cloth and leather armor, either on horseback or on foot.
Although the former walked very slowly, the latter did not make a sound to urge them, but consciously adjusted their pace to ensure that no one was left behind.
Bai Su was confused by this scene and couldn't understand it.
