Pushing open the heavy wooden door, I saw six petty officials inside. The guards were sorting through some boxes and grain bags on the ground. The guards dug out new rice with ladles, and then dug out the old bags on the side.

Old rice is put into rice bags.

In the blink of an eye, a few people exchanged half of the rewarded rice, shook it a few times, and then threw it aside with an indifferent expression, leaving the grain scattered on the floor.

Of course, the losses scattered all over the place can be collected and used by them.

Each of these six people worked enthusiastically and tried their best.

While the officers were carrying it, they paid full compliments to the little officials who were pacing with their hands behind their backs. Their facial features had been squeezed into a ball because they were smiling too much, which made people look very funny.

The little official was very arrogant, commanding the servants to do things, and he had the air of guiding the country.

Maybe the horses patted him very comfortably, so the clerk squinted his eyes and said, "Just wait and work hard, and today's harvest will be of your benefit."

As soon as these words came out, the officers smiled brightly and thanked him one after another.

Naturally, I am very happy to have some secret income.

Li Yi saw this scene in his eyes and took a few steps forward, only to see the guards pouring the grain from the sacks into bamboo baskets and stacking them aside.

However, they didn't work as hard as the others. The bamboo basket shook, and there were some gaps, but they allowed the white millet to scatter everywhere, but they didn't care. Not only that, they came in a hurry.

Go and step on the snow-white millet one foot at a time without caring.

You must know that famines are everywhere and refugees are everywhere. In addition to the brave men and horses, many people in Anxin survive by digging wild vegetables and eating thin soup every day. Not to mention that there are many homeless refugees fleeing from famine everywhere and starving to death.

wilderness.

But at a time like this, the food that could save countless poor people was wasted and trampled on.

The way of heaven and the way of the world are what everyone says, and everything should be like this. The common people can only accept their fate, but no one is willing to establish a destiny for the people. No one cares about the humanity of these common people.

At this time, Li Yi's heart was no longer filled with raging anger, but an unconcealable sadness and pain that seemed to tear his chest apart. He was so suffocated that he wanted to scream loudly, but he couldn't make any sound.

There is no way in heaven, and people will destroy it. In the world, there is no way, and people will destroy it. But everyone in the world is so despicable, ugly, cowardly, and ignorant, so what can we do?

Li Yi didn't understand in his heart. He didn't know how to make these despicable people disappear, and he didn't know how to prevent those kind and honest people from being harmed. In ancient times, there was Datong, Wei and Jin, and Taoyuan, but now they have fallen to this. How strange is it?

Deplorable.

The world is like this, what should I do? Li Yi felt uncomfortable and felt so confused again.

"Oh, who are you? Do you know where this place is?" A policeman came over, holding a fire stick and asking impatiently.

When the officer saw that Li Yi was wearing a farmer's short shirt and linen clothes, he knew that he was not a person of status. So he spoke rudely. As long as he couldn't get a satisfactory answer, he would make sure to make this reckless boy suffer.

.

Li Yi did not reply, but walked to the side of the grain and stood there, bent down and grabbed the grain on the ground, and stuffed it into his mouth along with the soil.

There was a bitter and hard taste in the mouth, which was difficult to swallow. But even so, he frowned, broke the pebbles into pieces under the friction of his hard teeth, and swallowed them into his stomach.

Food, these are all food.

He was always hungry. Since his body was different from ordinary people, he ate a lot. It was often difficult for him to eat enough, let alone work hard every day.

In the eyes of ordinary people, being the leader of Anxin, with control over thousands of taels of silver and nearly a thousand stones of grain, should be the person who enjoys the most. But the real situation is that Li Yi does the most tiring work, but has nothing to eat.

No different from the brave men.

Even though he is very hungry, he still has to work hard, why? Because he believes that as long as he works more, the villagers can work less. As long as everyone works together to build this home, life will get better and better in the future.

But now he thinks he was wrong, completely wrong.

The most tiring work such as plowing and logging is not what he should do most. What he should do most is to eradicate evil spirits so that these selfish and evil "evil thieves" will no longer lie on the bodies of the villagers to suck blood and eat flesh.

Only in this way can the villagers really work less and suffer less.

Only in this way will all their hard-earned gains not be used by corrupt officials for their pleasure.

This is the fact. Now one person needs to stand up to attract the wind, rain, thunder and lightning. Concentrate all the suffering on one person, then the others can have a chance to breathe. Otherwise, everyone will bear it together, and they will only be dragged down together in the end.

Li Yi finally understood that what everyone really needs is not food or money. What they need is a hero, a hero who gives them hope and strength.

This hero must be strong enough. This strength should not only be used to deal with corrupt officials and powerful thieves, but also strong enough to persist in fighting even when the people around him don't understand him.

Li Yi doesn't want to be a hero, he just wants to live a good life with everyone. But if someone must stand up, then stand up himself.

Whether you are facing officials high up in the mountains or tycoons who prey on the common people, just stand up. Stand in front of them and let them know that when they are satisfying their own selfish desires, when they are bullying and killing ordinary people for no reason, there is someone who stands up.

in front of them.

Since no one cares about these sleeping people, since no one protects the cornerstone of this suffering country, then stand up yourself. Stand like a poplar tree, shelter them from wind and rain in life, and remain standing even in death.

Li Yi doesn't feel how great he is. He is just harvesting the light of his life as an ordinary citizen, giving himself another choice, and opening up another path in life.

"Okay, a mere untouchable dares not to take me seriously. I think you are looking for a beating."

The guard ignored him when he saw the ruined young man in front of him, as if he had suffered great humiliation. He swung the fire and water stick in his hand mercilessly, and it was clear that he didn't care about the life or death of the young man in front of him.

This officer was originally a commoner, but as soon as he entered the official gate, he wanted to skin and eat the flesh of other commoners. Showing off his power and power, he showed his ruthlessness.

"Bang..."

Li Yi didn't even turn his head, but acted like a ghost, his right hand firmly grasping the fire and water stick like an iron claw.

"You deserve to be damned if you wait."

The cold gaze fell on the guard, making him feel as if he was sitting on pins and needles. He felt a cold breath go from his heart to his head, and he shivered fiercely.

He couldn't understand how he could hit the stick with all his strength, as fast as a whirlwind, and how the boy in front of him could catch it so easily.

"Big..., bold. Do you know where this place is? How dare you disobey the law? Do you want to die?"

The guard screamed, and could only use force to relieve the panic in his heart.

"Death? I don't know whether I died because of breaking the law or because I hated you and waited."
