Chapter 38
Chapter 38
There are a few strangers coming and going, and I think one of them might be the one you're looking for. " said the old blind man.
"Then do you know where they are?" Chen Yi asked.
"Go and have a look at the back, it should still be there." The old blind man packed up, greeted Chen Yi and left.Chen Yi followed the old blind man's instruction to go to the back of the Town God's Temple.
"monster."
Chen Yi saw that it was that child.When I came to this place for the first time, the child accused Liu Qingyang of scolding monsters, now it's my turn.Chen Yi stretched out his hand to grab the child, but the child was as nimble as a loach and slipped into the crowd and disappeared.Chen Yi was annoyed: "Smelly brat, don't let me see you again."
After finding the back, those refugees leaned against the wall, wandering between life and death, lingering on their last breath.Chen Yi frowned and walked in front of these people.Some weak people grabbed Chen Yi's feet:
"Master, wake up, give me a bowl of rice."
This old man with braids looked like he was about to die.Chen Yi knew that this person really would not live long. Such a person went through the era of the dynasty's demise and transformation. In the past, the Manchus had the final say, but now, it is no longer the case.From the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, he has already reached the end of his life.
There are too many such people.
It is a miracle to be able to come over and live.
Chen Yi shook off the old man's hand and left.
This is not to be blamed, because the times are like this.
Chapter Six: The Voice of Man (2)
Chen Yi continued to walk forward, only to find bloodstains. Following the bloodstains, he saw the back of a man. He pulled out the dagger from the dead man and left quickly.Chen Yi shouted loudly:
"stop!"
The man didn't listen and ran away.Chen Yi chased after him, turned around and turned back to the lobby of the Town God's Temple.The figure of that person among the crowd has long since disappeared.
"I have work to do today!" The words exploded in the crowd, a group of men rushed forward and Chen Yi squeezed out, Chen Yi was squeezed to be with the group of women, some of those women were happy, some were expressionless.
"Today we need thirty people at the pier!"
"Bestson! Want me!"
"I!"
"I!"
"Shut up! I'll pick!"
Everyone was quiet for a moment.Chen Yi raised his eyebrows and couldn't help laughing. It turned out that this was Bai Shisheng, and it was really easy for him to find.This Bai Shisheng was dressed in a foreign suit, wearing a certain black foreign hat, and leaning on a cane. This outfit really reminded Chen Yi of the past in the United States. This man didn't have any headhunting outfit on him.The fat governor asked him to pick up someone, and he thought he was some kind of person.This Bai Shisheng doesn't look like much.
Bai Sisheng stood on the chair that was about to be dismembered, and was supported by others to look around the audience, then pointed at the crowd with his cane:
"You, you, you go to the pier with me. And you, you, you..."
But when Baisisheng's crutch was pointing at him, Chen Yi thought he was pointing the wrong finger, and thought he had heard it wrong.When it was time to specify [-] workers, the ones who were hired were happy, but the ones who were not hired were disappointed.
When they were assembled, Bai Sisheng yelled at Chen Yi: "You kid, why are you so dazed! Come here quickly, do you still want to eat!"
"Bai Sisheng, he doesn't want me to go." someone shouted.
Chen Yi followed, he wanted to see what the hell this "Bai Shisheng" was doing.
Taking the man away on the road, Bai Sisheng said: "According to the old rules, one person is five silver dollars after finishing the work. And shut up all the things you shouldn't say. It's done, and there will be work next time. Do you understand?"
"We all understand the rules." The people inside responded.
"Just understand." Bai Sisheng said.
"However, Bai Sisheng, why haven't the people who went last time come back?"
"The foreign devils hired them to go to Taiwan. If you are selected, you will have nothing to worry about for the rest of your life."
"Then you still need a lot of good words to promote."
"There are plenty of opportunities for you. When I go this time, please give me a rest at the dock warehouse. I will call you when the ship arrives at night."
"Understood. Next time we have a job, just use our group of people."
"It's done this time, and I will look for you next time."
"we have a deal."
"I, Baisisheng, never lie."
After the chat started, Chen Yi mixed in with these people, what surprised him was that this "Bai Shisheng" dared to do such a job blatantly, it was really interesting.
"Hey, do you often work for Bai Shisheng?" Chen Yi asked the silent man beside him.
"I don't know." The calm male voice made Chen Yi pay attention to the man's outline.This is really a handsome man. From his appearance and his hands, it can be seen that this man used to have a very good family background. Although he is dressed with everyone, he can't hide the nobility on his body. It must be because of his family. The young master who doesn't mix with the refugees looking for work.
"My name is Chen Yi, and I'm new here. What's your name?" Chen Yi wanted to strike up a conversation. Such a person has a story, and it's probably a very exciting story.
"The chapter is a success."
Similar to Zhang Zhengfei's name, no one visited Zhang Zhengfei's family after the accident.I don't know if he has any family members. Looking at this young man, he is only in his 20s. His eyebrows and eyes are indeed somewhat similar to Zhang Shifei, but Chen Yi is not so stupid as to think that this person has something to do with Zhang Shifei.If Zhang Shifei's relatives are true, they will not ignore Zhang Shifei. Moreover, Zhang Shifei is kind and gentle. Zhang Shifei is a person who makes people feel comfortable. If such a person is his family member, he will never let him go. in spite of.
Zhang Shifei is about the same age as Chen Yi, and the relationship between them is like brothers.But Zhang Shifei never mentioned his family in front of him, and he never mentioned his past in front of Zhang Shifei.Up to now, Zhang Shifei's family has not appeared, so Zhang Shifei was an orphan early on...
Like myself, I grew up as an orphan.However, Chen Yi would not leave the unconscious Zhang Shifei alone for such a reason.
Otherwise, I will definitely go to hell.
Chen Yi laughed at himself and thought: If he goes to hell, will he meet his old friends?
"It's not easy for everyone to live these days. You won't get used to this kind of life at the beginning. As long as it takes a long time, you will get used to it." Chen Yi said.
Yes, anything will get used to.
Including: killing, smoking opium, drawing blood and facing life and death, starvation.
Now, in this world, if someone threatens your life and you don't kill it, then you will be the one who dies.
If you don't snatch, you'll starve.
Get used to anything.
Including eating "meat".
"Everyone is here to survive." Zhang Shicheng said.
For the excuse of "living", one can desperately seize all opportunities; this is an instinct, and it is also a sin of human beings.
"When will this kind of troubled world end? What will it be like if there is no war one day?" Chen Yi smiled with his mouth in his mouth.All kinds of imaginations floated in his mind.
What will the future look like?
Will there be wars in the future?Or will life disappear moment by moment, as it is now?
There is still no war, and everyone does not have to fight to the death for a little thing.Will not kill for a bowl of rice.
Chen Yi, who lived in the Republic of China, didn't know the future, but suddenly had a glimmer of expectation for the future.
The future has not yet been decided.
Although the future has nothing to do with Chen Yi, Chen Yi still hopes to have a future without war.
"The war will end one day." Zhang Shicheng quickly caught up with those people, only then did Chen Yi realize that he and Zhang Shicheng were left behind.
The war will end one day...
However, a new war will begin again...
Where there are people, it is always inevitable that the flames of war will start.
How painful is the earth that has been tortured by war?
When the sun was setting, Chen Yi and his group arrived at the dock warehouse.Bai Sisheng gave everyone two steamed buns and a bowl of water and said with satisfaction: "The goods will arrive at night, and I will take you to load them. Now you rest here first."
"Understood." Everyone devoured the steamed buns.Chen Yi looked at the steamed buns that were as hard as stones and really wanted to throw them away. He was glad that he had filled his stomach in the morning, and he would not starve to death if he missed a meal.
"Here you are." Chen Yi handed the buns to Zhang Shicheng.Zhang Shicheng took his steamed bun and handed it to the people around him, who thanked him.He kicked the remaining two in his arms and refused to eat them.
"do not like to eat?"
"Save it for tomorrow, lest you go hungry."
Chen Yi had been hungry before, and he knew what it was like to be hungry.It's no wonder that Cheng Cheng cares about the two stiff steamed buns in this chapter.
"I haven't seen you two before, you're new here." asked the man who had received Zhang Shicheng's mantou, carefully hiding the mantou that Zhang Shicheng gave him.
"Well, I'm new here. My brother used to come here to work often." Chen Yi agreed.
"Yes, although there are few, they can still live. If there were no jobs, this Town God's Temple would have been dead. Women and children have to work. They can't work, so men will do it. And the Luoshan people have already left Shanghai. It’s gone. I can’t get this steamed bun either.”
"This Bai Shisheng is also a kind person. He does work for everyone, and gives food and silver dollars." Chen Yi always felt that this "Bai Shisheng" was weird. How could a person from the police station do such a thing?Is there any purpose?
"With his blessings, everyone can live for a while. He worked for the foreign devils, and many people became popular under him. There are already two groups of people who haven't come back, and they all went to enjoy their blessings." The man said enviously.
"To enjoy happiness?"
How can there be such a good thing in the world, you should die.Chen Yi sneered, normal people can find it weird, this Town God's Temple died inexplicably, and two groups of people disappeared, only one person's words, God knows if they are dead or alive.The fat governor said that Bai Shisheng was investigating the case of Chenghuang Temple, but
