Kingdom’s Bloodline Chapter 1: Beggar

　　" Therefore, Baudrillard believes that "things" and "needs" are both false symbols. He criticized Marx's use value, thinking that the latter has also fallen into the trap of capitalist political economy, and proposed himself Political economy of symbols."

　　 Wu Yinren finished his report, clicked on the last slide, nodded to the teacher and a dozen students, and left the platform at the teacher's sign, waiting for the next student's report.

　　 "Tels!"

　　 The next moment, Wu Yinren, a former graduate student, woke up from his dream.

　　 He was curled up, lying in a cold hole in the old wall, feeling the cold wind blowing from the gaps in all directions.

　　 Wu Yinren sighed. After five years of travel, he will still have dreams of previous lives. Although the life before crossing is boring, it is always better than the miserable situation before him.

　　 "Tyles, Tyles!" A big hand stretched out from the hole in the wall, grabbed Wu Yinren's ear, and roughly grabbed him out of this small hole.

　　 This is a dilapidated house. Through the half-collapsed roof, you can see the bright stars in the night sky, but the arrangement and shape of the galaxy are very strange to Wu Yingren.

　　 Wu Yinren can’t resist that rough hand—what can a seven-year-old kid do? He was dragged on the rough brick floor, his knees hurting, but he still gritted his teeth without saying a word, because the cruel Quaid was especially impatient with the cry of the child. It is said that he once gave a man who wanted to exchange his tears for food. The six-year-old girl paralyzed both legs.

　　 "I asked Rick, your money this week is five coppers less than last week! Did you hide it?" An angry Quaid is like a red-haired lion, his protruding nose makes him More fierce.

　　 Wu Yinren was knocked to the ground. The light in his gray eyes saw the hole in the surrounding wall. The five beggars who lived in the same room with him, ranging from four to ten years old, were all in Quide’s Shivering in the roar.

　　 Among them, in the innermost wall hole, a young girl with short hair clenched her left hand tightly, her face flushed, and she was looking at Wu Yinren on the ground in terror. In the hole next to her, a six-year-old boy, Ned Even screamed out of fright.

　　 That's Coria, and Wu Yinren knows what she is afraid of.

　　 In fact, Wu Yinren had good luck this week. He, Qier Thales-Wu Yinren's current name-got 37 coppers this week, 18 more than last week. One.

　　 But he only handed over 14 coppers to Quaid, the leader of the Black Street Brotherhood who specializes in the business of beggars, and took the remaining coppers together with the money he had saved over the past two years. I ran to the Grove Pharmacy and "purchased" a typhoid medicine at cost in the hands of the kind helper Yanni.

　　 Thales fed the potion to Coria, who was four years old. She had typhoid fever at her age. Without potion, it was almost a dead end.

　　 In the past five years, Thales has re-experienced the memory formation period from two to seven years old. From the ignorant children, he gradually recovered the memories of previous lives. Among them, the children’s Memories seem fragmented and scattered. Even so, in these two years of ignorance and soberness, Thales was deeply impressed every time he witnessed the death of others with his own eyes.

　　 From illness, falling, drowning, hanging, to being beaten to death (even once, Thales saw a crying beggar suffocated ten meters away with his own eyes) , The Black Street Brotherhood, which specializes in human trafficking, has never had any bottom line and principles. Even if it is a gang, it takes time to settle rules and order. The Brotherhood, which originated from the Black Street, has grown from rise to growth. But in the early ten years.

　　 What's more, even if it is the enemy of the Brotherhood, the blood bottle gang with a history of ninety years and known as the "noble in the gang", the blood debts in their hands are not rare.

　　Most of the time, Thales, who witnessed death, was helpless. Even himself, with the help of an adult’s wisdom and maturity, avoided more than one murder.

　　 For example, now, gearing up, the enthusiastic Quaid is showing the cruelty and viciousness of a sadistic gangster in his eyes.

　　 "I have no private possession! It's winter this week, and there are a lot fewer people passing through the three districts of the lower city—" Thales got up from the ground, turned his mind quickly, and vomited out the excuses he had made.

　　 "Pop!"

　　 He was greeted by a merciless slap, knocking Thales back to the ground.

　　 "Hand over the hidden money, and then I will beat you! Or I will beat you first, and then you will hand over the money! Choose yourself!"

　　 Obviously, Quaid didn't want to listen to his explanation. This brotherhood leader may just want to search for money, or he may just want to find someone to beat him up.

　　"But you can also be stiff-mouthed-I like children with stiff-mouthed the most." Quaid grinned and moved his fists.

　　 Looking at a fist as big as a sandbag in front of him, Thales knew that even if he said nothing, Quaid would not let him go.

　　 and Quaid was tortured alive last month, a beggar in the fifth house.

　　 Thales clutched his swollen cheeks, thinking quickly.

　　 On weekdays, Quaid doesn’t care about the accounts. He goes to the underground street sunset bar to hang around or hang around with a wine bottle at night. It is also difficult to tell how many Middle Copper coins can be exchanged for a Mindis silver coin, let alone him How many cases were paid by the beggars under his men—that was the responsibility of his deputy, Rick, who looked steady and steady, and even the shrewd ones knew that the beggars had seven or eight coppers per week. The fluctuation of the case money is simply too normal.

　　Someone informs.

　　This is the only conclusion.

　　 Thales glanced around at the beggars around him, and when he got money from the female nobleman, he went straight back to the abandoned house. The children in the same house must have seen it, and in the harsh environment, The hearts of children will become more terrifying than adults think.

　　Quide kicked again, Thales secretly covered his abdomen with his elbow, relieved his strength a little, and pretended to have an unbearable expression of pain, as if he was suffering from the kick—he Can't say anything, Quaid likes the screams of children the most.

　　 "I said!" Thales showed fear on his face, "Don't hit me!"

　　 "That depends on my mood!" Quaid looked around and saw that the other five beggars were shrinking in fear, which made him very satisfied, and his authority was respected.

　　 "I ran into an aristocratic lady on Wednesday morning, and she gave me nearly ten coppers!" Thales hid in the corner, shuddering.

　　 "I knew! Begging? Must be stolen, right? No one can hide from me, especially you little thief!" Quaid rubbed his palms viciously, preparing for the next round of beatings: Hand over the money!"

　　 Before Quaid’s brows were raised, Thales added: "But I went to Red Square Street!"

　　"Red Square Street?" Quaid lowered his raised palm a little more, "Did you go to the site of the Blood Bottle Gang?"

　　 "Yes, we really can't ask for more money in our place." Except for the brothers, the skilled rangers, and some guys with special purposes, who would be near the black street without a long eye Patrolling in the three abandoned areas? Even the city defense team carrying swords and shields did not want to approach this sinful place.

　　 "The first time I got so much money, the blood bottle gang didn't show up, and then I thought that there might be a chance the next day."

　　 "Idiot!" Quaid kicked Thales hard. Thales saw Coria in the distance trembling, only to listen to Quaid yelling, "I don't even think about it, is there so much cheapness to pick up the blood bottle gang?"

　　 Taylor's body shrank, and he tremblingly said: "Yes, the people from the Blood Bottle Gang grabbed me the next afternoon. They hung me up. I said I was lost. They didn't believe it. I handed over the money, but they still don’t let me go."

　　 "Trash! How did you escape?" Quaid sipped hard.

　　"Then, I said I was Boss Quaid’s person, they, they just laughed."

　　 "What?" Quaid clenched his fists, he grabbed Thales' tattered burlap collar and lifted him from the corner, "What are they laughing at?"

　　 Thales shook his head questioningly: "I don't understand well—what they say."

　　Quide stared at him ferociously: "Say it!"

　　 Thales pretended to be frightened, trembling, and tremblingly said: "There is a bald head among them. He said, since it is a child of Quaid, then leave him a life, because Kui De needs children so much—"

　　 Thales was slammed against the wall by Quaid before he finished speaking!

　　He tried his best to protect his head, chest and abdomen, with his back to withstand the impact of the wall, and then immediately turned his back to Quaid to face the heavy blow from his rage, and at the same time feel the force of the heavy blow, changing every moment The angle of the back cushions the strength of the blow.

　　"Bitch-brought-of-you-bald-Spin-how did he know-kill you-kill you-trash-stupid-"

　　Quaid yelled furiously, kicking at Thales one foot after another, roaring with words that could only tell a few words.

　　 In the hole in the wall, several children watched in horror as Thales was beaten, but they all held their mouths tightly and did not dare to make a sound.

　　 Thales let out a sigh of relief under the rain of Quaid.

　　 At least, now Quaid will no longer ask where the extra money went, and, although it looks terrible, but the angry and mad Quaid is far safer than the happily torturing child. Much.

　　 What he said is half true. Thales did go to Red Square Street, but he has been hiding in the corner of the dark alley, carefully observing the surroundings, and he did meet a man in goose down Chinese clothes Noble lady, but she was followed by twenty end swordsmen. This is also the reason why the blood bottle gang did not interrupt him when he ran out of the alley to beg. In the hands of the goose down noblewoman, Thales did beg He arrived at the twelve coppers (of course he would not be stupid enough to steal in front of twenty terminator swordsmen), but he quickly disappeared from the crowd without waiting for the female aristocratic team to go far, and never returned.

　　 As for the bald Spean, Thales has never seen him, only knows that he is the boss of the blood bottle to help collect the black bills. And Quaid used to be the gangster in the Brotherhood-until Quaid provoked the wrong person and was beaten to his lower body. This news was more secret. It was Thales who was lying under the corner of the Brotherhood House. , I heard that when the killer Leyoke and Belicia were fighting in the room, they laughed at Quaid privately.

　　 When Quaid finished venting his anger, he cursed the bald Spean of the blood bottle gang, and took out the wine bottle from his arms. When he left cursingly, Thales’ clothes on his back were already torn apart. A piece of bruise. Because Thales deliberately turned sideways in order to avoid a frontal blow, blood was wiped out in some places, and pain came in bursts of pain.

　　 Blood flowed to the ground, Thales only felt a fierce pain hit, probably too long since he was beaten by someone, he felt his muscles were burning.

　　 Since crossing this world, being beaten and hungry, sickness and cold are commonplace, but after gradually regaining the memory of graduate student Wu Yinren, based on caution and past experience, Thales has not been like this for a long time Beaten viciously.

After 　　Quide’s voice faintly disappeared, the other five children in the room crawled out of their own holes and skillfully carried the weakened Quide into the yard. The ten-year-old "big man" Xinti grabbed it. Pick up a curved broken bowl fragment and scoop water in front of the water tank. The lame Ryan and the black-faced Kelett are both eight years old, struggling to collect dead branches and weeds. Use flint and steel to make a fire. The six-year-old yellow-haired Ned and the youngest Coria took off a few strange-shaped wild leaves, chewed them in their mouths, and gently rubbed them on Thales’ scarred back.

　　 Taylors endured the pain and wanted to find something to divert his attention. He looked at Coria who was weeping, turned to the downcast yellow-haired Ned, and tried his best to calm his tone.

　　 "It's okay, Ned, I don't blame you."

　　Nid looked up suddenly, his face was full of horror, and the other four children turned their eyes to him.

　　 "How did you know?" The six-year-old couldn't hide his thoughts, and guilt and panic were written on his face.

　　 Just now, when Thales was severely beaten by Quaid, although the three older children were terrified, they were all staring at this side, only Coria and Ned, one hiding his face in his hands did not dare Looking up, the other looked at the wall, occasionally turning his head and glanced in horror.

　　 Coria’s typhoid medicine is the final place for those coppers. Of course she won’t inform, but Thales is still not sure that it is Ned, and now there is no doubt.

　　He tried to squeeze a smile, "It's okay, Quaid won't care about it anymore."

　　 "I, I," Ned's face was so red that he looked at Thales' back, tears falling drop by drop, "I didn't ask for money this week, and I dare not steal it," he Sobbing, "Rick didn't say anything, but Quaid was very upset. He said that he would sell me to the Great Desert and serve the Boneman as a meal. I was so scared, I told him and said Tyre. Si, Thales, you got back a lot of coppers one day... I thought they wouldn’t drive me like this...Quaid drove me back and said he would come back tonight..."

　　Coria's face also flushed, her hand wiping the herb shook suddenly, and a few drops of blood dripped from Thales' back to the ground. Thales groaned silently, and the burning pain subsided, and it was stimulated by Coria's movements again.

　　 Ryan stared at Ned angrily, lowering the latter’s head, Kelett looked at Ned in surprise, then at Thales, only Cindy silently said nothing and continued to take the water Bring it over.

　　 "It's okay, Ned, Coria," Thales felt that the injury on his back seemed to heal a lot, and he gently held Ned's hand, "Next time, none of you can ask for money. , Just tell me, I'll find a way."

　　Need cried harder, and his crying words were a bit vague: "Ty——Tyles, right——I’m sorry——"

　　 "It's okay now, Ned, don't be afraid, I always have a way." Thales smiled and took the broken bowl in Cindy's hand and took a sip of water.

　　 He turned his head and took a breath. Compared to the countless predecessors who traveled through countless worlds, his luck was undoubtedly much worse.

　　 But, even so.

　　 He looked at the five children around him, especially Coria, who was recovering from typhoid fever. There was still panic in her crystal eyes.

　　 I have to find a way to ask for more money tomorrow~IndoMTL.com~ he thought.

　　——————————————————

　　In the sunset temple of Yongxing City, the prayers at sunset ended. An intern who was cleaning the altar stopped the action in her hand. She looked at the stone altar in surprise, one of them was filled with eternal life. Oil sacrifice lamp.

　　 Since she started taking care of the altar, this lamp has never been lit again, and it has never been used. In the inconspicuous sacrificial lamp that has never been lit, a bright yellow flame suddenly ignited.

　　 The flame suddenly turned red and red, just like the color of blood, becoming more and more vigorous.

　　 An older priest noticed the intern's gaffe, she yelled in dissatisfaction, and the intern turned her attention back to the altar. But it wasn't until the priest himself saw the unusual lamp that the elder screamed.

　　 "Niya, hurry up, let me know the priest!"

　　 The elder priest’s surprise cannot be concealed. She tremblingly threw herself in front of the lamp, raised her right palm and turned her left palm up, preparing for prayer.

　　 What's wrong? It was the first time that the intern Niya saw that the respected priest was so gagged that she herself was also affected.

　　 Did I make a mistake? But I didn't touch that lamp.

　　 "But, what should I tell the priest? Someone secretly lit up, lighting up a lamp beside the altar?" Niya asked in a panic.

　　 "No."

　　The older priest stared at the lamp, changing the prayer patterns in his hands.

　　"This lamp, even if the two continents and countless islands of the entire Errol world are exhausted, only one person can light it."

　　"That person will determine the future of the kingdom~IndoMTL.com~Book friends are welcome to visit and read. The latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all on~IndoMTL.com~For mobile phone users, please go to read.
