refuse to be a teacher

Out of curiosity, Xue Lan poked her head out immediately.

Unexpectedly, this fellow Cheng Bi became serious, as if there were a series of barbs growing on the stool, he stood up after a few thumps, and walked into the crowd while watching.

It turned out that the beggar mother and son went to the wrong place to beg for food. Now everyone is served a bowl of steaming hot noodles early in the morning. Going around in front of each table, all the diners around were immediately annoyed, picked up the sticks and hit them hard on the body.

In fact, it would be better not to beat, the stick came down with extremely heavy hands, and the mother was beaten on the spot, crying, and the skinny little son in her arms also poured out feces/urine— — I don’t know if it was given by someone or scared, but the smell lingered in and out of the noodle shop for a long time, and quickly wiped away a group of poor diners who were unappetizing.The rest of the group, obviously not fuel-efficient lamps, besieged the beggar mother and child behind the door in twos and threes, kicking and beating them and then yelling loudly.

Cheng Bi couldn't stand it anymore, and went straight into the crowd without thinking.Xue Lan was a troublesome person, so she hurried up to pull him up again: "...what are you doing! Didn't your master tell you not to cause trouble!"

Cheng Bi seemed to be stunned for a moment, but quickly said again: "No, this is too much, what if someone is killed?"

Xue Lanyin shouted from behind: "Hey, have you ever thought about it, I can't be in a crowded place..."

However, as soon as the words came out, they were completely submerged in the chaotic and boiling voices in front of them, and there was no echo in an instant.Cheng Bi's stature is not tall or strong, but he was able to slip through the gap between the constantly flowing figures, saying "Give way, don't hit, don't hit", while pushing the person who was curled up on the edge of the threshold The beggar mother and son were helped up.

Because Xue Lan really had no other choice, and because she was afraid of accidentally showing her face in the crowd, she simply followed with her head down, and hurriedly looked inside—it was a terrible sight, and the mother and son were both dressed in clothes and trousers. It was trampled to pieces, and there was still a bloodstain on the back and legs from the beating with a stick. The most frightening thing was that the mother was holding a four or five-year-old son in her arms. Very swollen.

Without even thinking about it, Cheng Bi immediately took off his clothes and covered them up.

But his actions immediately caused dissatisfaction among the diners who were making trouble nearby.The head of the strong man had a fierce face, and he was holding a three-foot-long wooden stick in his hand. He stood up two heads taller than Cheng Bi, squinting at him now, and said in a bad tone: "Little brother, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. It's not easy for everyone here to eat something early in the morning, but unfortunately, this pair of beggars disturbed their interest in vain. If you say we don't beat them, can't we beat you?"

Cheng Bi's face turned pale, but he still insisted and said: "The beggar's life is also his life. Since it doesn't look pleasing to the eye, it's fine to invite them out. Why do you have to deal with it so hard?"

When the strong man heard it, he almost laughed out loud.Seeing that his expression was wrong, Xue Lan hurriedly pulled the process away and folded back, folded her hands together as if earnestly, and said very sincerely: "Brother, please do me a favor, my junior brother is not good at thinking. Don’t be as knowledgeable as him. We have no objection to the eldest brother’s killing these two beggars, but if you think about it carefully, two people were killed in the noodle shop in broad daylight. Do you want to continue the business of the owner of the shop?”

After finishing speaking, he bowed his hands again, and said respectfully to the strong man: "Why don't you do a good deed and let the two of them live, which can be regarded as accumulating good deeds for the shop owner, and the business will flourish in the future, thanks to you! "

What he said was very reasonable, and when everyone heard it, they also agreed with him.But just talking about it like this, I always feel like there is something shortcoming-in the end, after a while, someone directly pointed it out: "These two beggars are hanging around in the noodle shop, which is disgusting. It’s fine if you don’t pay for your life—how should you calculate the losses suffered by those diners?”

"Yes, yes, their lives are their lives, so our people are not human anymore?"

For a while, gossip filled the sky, and it was difficult to adjust.But soon, they turned to a direction that almost everyone was in the same direction.

"—give me the money!"

"Yes, give me the money!" The strong man with the stick frowned, and immediately shouted, "Since you want to do this good thing, why not take care of both sides, and you will pay for the losses caused by these two beggars! "

"You guys pay for it!"

"Pay quickly, pay quickly!"

Xue Lanyin was smiling all over his face, while glaring at Cheng Bi with small eyes.When the two of them fished their five fingers into their pockets at the same time—oh, it's over now, there is not even a copper plate left.

Seeing that the burly man's face became more and more gloomy with horror, Cheng Bi's face turned blue, he hesitated and couldn't bring out anything, let alone the courage to speak the truth.Fortunately, at this moment, a deep male voice sounded slowly from behind the crowd: "...how much money do you want, I will pay for it."

Everyone turned their heads one by one after hearing the words, and saw Yi Shangxian in a black plain robe, standing between the shadows with his hands up and down, his eyes were cold, like a ruthless blade.

But all the natives who have lived and worked hard along the banks of the Huoshui River, no one knows what kind of powerful person is hidden in the southeast Changxing Residence, which is seldom visited by people.

Some people may never have the chance to meet Yi Shangxian, but they must have heard various legends about him.From the battle of Jielongyin 20 years ago, to Yan Jue's injury and falling into Xixin Valley afterwards, almost all the fierce events that are closely related to the Lingtai Yijian sect, he will follow them in a particularly important capacity in Changxingju back.

Therefore, as long as people catch a glimpse of this unsmiling fairy, it is essentially... the same as seeing a ghost.Especially the group of gangsters in this noodle restaurant, who looked up at Yi Shangxian, like a mouse seeing a cat, with their ugly faces who were arrogantly looking for money just now, now After brushing it, most of it turned green, and trembling for a while, he almost knelt down and kowtowed his head on the spot.

Fortunately, Yi Shangxian is a real person.Said to give the money, he untied the two bags of silver from his waist, actually there was not much left in it, but it was enough to buy two large jars of old wine to drink.

Spend money to eliminate disasters and make peace.

All the diners tremblingly accepted the handful of broken silver handed over by Yi Shangxian himself, and they stopped causing trouble at the moment, turned around one after another and walked out the door, scattered like birds and beasts.

Afterwards, in the big smelly small noodle restaurant, only the three of them were left standing there dryly.And the owner of the small shop who didn't dare to speak out, at that time took his guy to hide behind the long curtain in the kitchen, and didn't have the guts to show his face.

Xue Lan lowered her head at this moment, and the beggar mother and son lying on the inside of the threshold had already struggled to sit up.The two of them were in a state of embarrassment, the blood hadn't dried up, and the four or five-year-old boy in his arms was also crying, and the pile of filth hanging on his legs and arms was mixed with blood, which was simply unsightly.

Xue Lan didn't know that Cheng Bi was such a kind person.Right now, the kid didn't think he would respond, so he squatted down on the spot, took out two handkerchiefs from his arms, and handed them to the mother and son to wipe their faces and bodies.

The beggar mother was very vigilant, and when she saw someone approaching her, her first reaction was to hide.After a while, seeing that the person seemed to have no malicious intentions, he shook a pair of skinny palms to pick it up.Through a certain subtle angle when she raised her head, Xue Lan could see that there were tears in her eyes, but they couldn't fall out. It was always an indescribable sadness.

Her voice was so hoarse that she could hardly make a sound.But she still struggled to open her mouth, and judging from the shape of her mouth, she should have squeezed out a "thank you".

Cheng Bi nodded at her, then turned to Xue Lanyin and said, "When there was a famine in our hometown, there were too many people like this. You may not have experienced it yourself. The streets are full of refugees begging and they can't get enough to eat. If you don’t wear warm clothes, you will get sick and die.”

Xue Lanyin actually didn't feel anything about this kind of thing.He has sympathy, but he doesn't often flood it. He can understand Cheng Bi's approach, but when it's his turn, he may not take the initiative to help these weak people.

Xue Lan said: "What's the use of saving them now? There are so many beggars on the street, you can't pick them up for everyone, give a bowl of rice porridge to each of them, and reward them with a bag of silver, right?"

Cheng Bi snorted coldly, and looked at him with disdain: "I am willing, is that okay?"

When he said this, Yi Shangxian stood behind the four of them with arms folded, without saying anything.Feeling embarrassed, Xue Lan simply turned her head away and played with the little boy in the mother's arms.

Not to mention, this boy's small face was wiped clean with a veil, and he was still very handsome. Maybe he will be a handsome young man when he grows up in the future.But as soon as he saw Xue Lanyin, he couldn't stop crying, his throat was clearly hoarse, and he didn't know what was wrong, so he shed tears one after another in front of him.

Xue Lan had no choice but to squat down together.As soon as he squatted down, the hairpin in his arms rolled out, and he was about to reach out to pick it up, but the other little hand grabbed it from elsewhere, grabbed it back, and held it firmly in his palm inside.

As soon as Xue Lan raised her head, she happened to meet the boy's clear and dark eyes.

After a while, the boy finally stopped crying, grinned a little dry mouth, and giggled loudly.

He was holding the not-so-good-looking hairpin in his hand, and he seemed to really like the jasper flower inlaid on the tail of the hairpin. With the gentle and soft morning sun, it looked a little crystal clear, very lovable.

Of course Xue Lan was not as generous as Cheng Bi, seeing the treasure she picked out with her own hands fell into the hands of others, her whole body was like a hedgehog with fried hair, and her voice also cooled down, she was so stern and terrifying :"……Take back!"
