Chapter 10 Fang Chen's Transformation 1
People's hearts are the most unpredictable. In these famine years, it is definitely not a good thing for a young man like Fang Chen to possess a mysterious hidden weapon.
If more beasts could be hunted with this hidden weapon, many refugees would be willing to take the risk and give it a try.
Fortunately, Fang Chen's initial performance was satisfactory. He had no reason to kill people directly to establish his power, and used human corpses to warn the refugees not to do things they shouldn't do.
This intuitive way of establishing authority made these honest men lose all caution, but they also needed to survive.
Looking at Fang Chen's team of four, those people all hoped that they could join them.
In order to ensure that he could have a bite to eat, Old Man Mu, as the representative of the refugees, took action again.
"Young Master, I haven't seen you for a long time. Do you still remember me?"
Fang Chen glared back at the other party with a hint of annoyance, "Old man, when did you catch up?"
Old Man Mu laughed, not caring about the displeasure in Fang Chen's tone. He pointed at the refugees with him behind him and said, "I wonder if we can get another share of meat today?"
Su Lie had just made him upset and angry, but now when old man Mu opened his mouth, he really hit Fang Chen's target.
"I said, old man, what does it have to do with me whether you can eat meat or not? I have nothing to do with you and everything depends on me? Why?"
Su Lie's face was slightly ugly. He first saluted Old Man Mu, and then asked Fang Chen: "Why are you so resistant to raising your hands? Didn't your master tell you to do more good deeds?"
Fang Chen raised his eyebrows, "I can kill wild beasts with the weapons in my hands. But these weapons are not unlimited. If they are used up, what can I use to protect my own safety?"
Su Lie took a step back. This was indeed not the case.
"Moral kidnapping? Why?" In his displeasure, Fang Chen directly cursed and directly introduced the theory of later generations, which was also a chilling statement.
Moral kidnapping, even moral threat.
Put yourself above morality and accuse others of bad character, so you make verbal sarcasm to others in your heart, words, and on the Internet, but never consider whether this is part of their job.
"Moral kidnapping?" Neither Su Lie nor Old Man Mu knew what it meant, and their eyes were full of doubts.
Fang Chen pointed at Su Lie and asked, "If you have a thousand taels of silver at home, each tael can save one person's life. Can you save it?"
Su Lie nodded, "Help!"
Fang Chen sneered and said: "Rescue? After spending one thousand taels, there are still people in need of treatment. What should you do?"
Su Lie was stunned for a moment. He really hadn't thought about this matter.
"Don't worry about scarcity, but worry about inequality; don't worry about poverty, but worry about insecurity. It's easy to save one person, but it's difficult to save ten thousand people. If everyone is waiting for you to save, how will you do it? If you don't save, it is wrong, but if you save, it is not
Well! Do you understand?"
Alarm bells were ringing in Su Lie's mind. This was the first time he heard this explanation, and he was simply shocked by his own views on human nature.
"Brother, are you saying this too much? How can there be such ungrateful people? Doing good deeds is for the sake of others. How can you force or even resent your benefactor..." When the words came to his lips, Su Lie also understood.
What Fang Chen said was not a lie. Now, wasn't he forcing Fang Chen?
"What the young master said is true. Old man, I was reckless!" Old Man Mu also understood why Fang Chen had always looked at them with cold eyes. The young master was right, he was looking at people's hearts.
Su Lie didn't know what to do. He couldn't justify this statement because he had just done such a wrong thing.
"Brother, I don't understand."
Fang Chen watched Old Man Mu walk away before he continued, "This hidden weapon will not be made in the Tang Dynasty for hundreds of years! And I still have to rely on it to survive. It is just like my arm. Do you understand?"
"
First he rejected Old Man Mu, and then Fang Chen rejected Su Lie, completely dispelling Su Lie's little thoughts.
"Qiao'er, grab your mother and let's go."
Fang Chen left without waiting for Su Lie. This time, Su Lie did not chase, but helped Old Man Mu start to repair the homeless people.
The wind rustled, and the fallen leaves had no roots. The golden light shone in the sky, but Fang Chen and others felt the slightest chill.
The autumn wind brings down the cold, and it is no longer as hot and unbearable as summer. If it were in the past, it would definitely be a matter of seconds.
In addition to the coolness, Fang Chen also had another layer of worries in his heart. The weather changed greatly day and night, and the refugees in this wilderness were probably more likely to catch a cold.
During this period, a cold is basically equivalent to a serious illness, which is difficult to cure. If you can survive it, you will live, but if you cannot survive it, you will... die.
"Qiao'er, do you think I should help them?"
Stopping, Fang Chen fell into deep thought. He could care whether those people ate or not. When people were in a hurry, they would never lack the means to eat, but he couldn't bear the thought of people dying of illness.
Just like his mother, who was ill in the hospital, if someone could help him financially, her mother would never die.
"Big brother, Qiao'er doesn't know, Qiao'er only knows that whatever big brother does is right!"
Qiaoer shrank slightly in discomfort. It seemed that she also felt that the temperature was abnormal, which made her slightly uncomfortable.
"Master, what is going to happen?" Liu's keen observation went wrong, and Fang Chen clearly saw some problems.
Fang Chen nodded, turned around and asked, "You said, I can help, but I don't. Is it wrong?"
Ms. Liu thought that Fang Chen was talking about what happened before, and said with a smile: "What the young master does must have deep meaning. From the perspective of women, it is not easy to be homeless, so if you can help, help."
If you can help, then help, but if you can't, then help. These words are also very particular. It can be said to express what is in my heart without causing misunderstanding to Fang Chen.
Fang Chen was stunned for a moment. Death from starvation had nothing to do with him, but death from illness was something he couldn't accept.
Perhaps still feeling guilty, Fang Chen stopped and looked up at the sky.
"Mom, what should I do?"
His heart was in agony. He couldn't bear to see the misery, and he didn't want what he had faced happen to others, so he kept it in and never mentioned it to anyone.
Former comrades-in-arms could only see a madman who fought tooth and nail as soon as he entered the battlefield, and could not understand the sadness in Fang Chen's heart.
When he came to this world, he felt out of place. The reason why he allowed Liu and his daughter to follow him was mainly because of the loneliness in his heart.
Perhaps, it is precisely because he wants to live but does not want to fit in here.
In the dark, Fang Chen felt a slight heat in his chest. He opened his collar and once again saw the white jade Guanyin that had turned into a black stone. Fang Chen smiled bitterly, "Mother, you want to tell me that Fang Chen from back then has already become a black stone."
Dead?"
In his last memory in this world, he was bombed by a missile, and his body was probably blown to pieces. Maybe he was able to escape with his life now, maybe it was God giving him another chance?
After touching the Stone Guanyin, when Fang Chen looked up again, an elusive smile appeared on his face.
"Perhaps this is also the real reason for me to live again?"
From this moment on, Fang Chen's state of mind changed, and he began to think about what he should do next.
Growing up in a single-parent family, his mother always told him that his biological father was not around.
In the past, he always thought that his father, whom he had not seen for a long time, might still be alive, but as time passed, Fang Chen regarded him as a dead person, and his mother was the only relative he cared about.
His mother was very strange and didn't like to socialize with others. She kept to herself in this community. It was not easy to raise Fang Chen by relying on her craft.
Fang Chen cares even more about his mother.
Mother said that no one could be worthy of Fang Chen except the darling daughter of the country. This also made Fang Chen wonder for a while that his mother was an alternative from which dynasty traveled through time.
But now, he seems to have understood something.
"Mother, you seem to be hiding a shocking secret from me!"
The anger in Fang Chen's eyes slowly faded, and his vision became clearer.
"Let's go back!"
Ignoring the strange looks in Liu's and her daughter's eyes, Fang Chen began to obey his thoughts for the first time.
