Chapter 12: Broken Stick

There is a saying that goes like this, it is better to steal than to rob, and to rob is worse than to kill. It is indeed very suitable for this era!

In this era, people don't bother to do thieves. It's better to rob, at least to have a better reputation. It's better to be a hero than to be a robber. If you have a grudge, you will take revenge. If the road is uneven, there will be people who trample on it. People in this era tend to draw swords on each other.

People pay more attention to honor and integrity, of course, to the point where they are about to starve to death. It doesn’t matter whether they have honor or not. The green forest heroes who were originally worthy of showing off have now become bandits and robbers that everyone hates. No matter what, the world has changed, and the lives of ordinary people have changed.

It's still hard, there are a few who want to steal things from birth, and there are a few who want to go up the mountains and become bandits, it's just because of the situation!

Du Yi just glanced at it lightly. He saw clearly that the young man running away in front of him was about eleven or twelve years old. He was dressed in rags and was holding a big cake with both hands for fear of getting wet by the autumn rain.

The big man chasing behind him had a fat head and big ears, and his fat body trembled when he ran. He was obviously a pampered little boss. Du Yi felt a little irritated. After all, the young man's situation was not much different from his own. Du Yi couldn't bear it.

He felt a little sad, and what made Du Yi even more annoyed was that the fat pig with big ears was so persistent, and it was just a pancake. As for this, it was really annoying!

He looked at a pebble that happened to be under his feet and kicked it out. The pebble seemed to have eyes and flew towards the fat man's lower body. In fact, it was just a lesson. If you are cruel and have some inner strength,

, I guess the fat man’s leg will be useless.

"Ouch!" The fat man whined, covering his calves and rolling on the ground. His face was full of pain, and his screams resounded throughout the street!

The corner of Du Yi's mouth curled up slightly, but the boy stopped in front of Du Yi and looked at Du Yi hesitantly, wondering if he should run over. After all, he had stolen something and made a mistake, and he didn't want to be beaten.

Cut off limbs!

Du Yi smiled slightly and made way for him. The young man was stunned for a moment, then bowed slightly and ran away!

The smile at the corner of Du Yi's mouth froze. Although the young man lived a hard life and did not hesitate to steal, he could still be so polite. This made Du Yi feel incredible and was touched deep in his heart!

He retracted the foot he had just stepped out, turned around and looked in the direction the young man had left, frowning and lost in thought!

After about a cup of tea, Du Yi came to a dilapidated thatched house. At this time, Du Yi discovered that the boy who had stolen things before was taking care of three children. They all looked like they were seven or eight years old.

The small bodies were curled up in the straw and shivering, but they all had a small piece of pancake in their hands, and the boy who stole the pancake was watching the three children eat eagerly, his throat squirmed and he turned his head away!

Du Yi's nose was slightly sore. He was only sixteen years old. He didn't know what kind of emotions these children had, because he had never seen or felt them. But this feeling made him extremely sad and uncomfortable, and he couldn't bear it.

I want to take care of myself!

The boy who stole the cake turned around and saw Du Yi. He couldn't help but be slightly dazed, and then showed nervousness and apprehension!

Du Yi took a deep breath and waved to the boy. The boy hesitated for a moment and then slowly walked out of the thatched house!

"May I have your name?"

Du Yi's voice trembled slightly, but when he heard something different in the young man's ears, it seemed as if he was blaming someone, or he seemed to be excited before an angry rebuke, and his heart suddenly tightened!

"I, my name is Zhao Yu!"

"where are they?"

Ling Fei was stunned for a moment, and then he understood who they were that Du Yi was talking about. He lowered his head and said nervously: "My younger brothers and sisters, Zhao Feng, Zhao Lei, Zhao Xue,"

Sure enough, it was family love, this was family love. Du Yi felt extremely disappointed in his heart. He had never felt this feeling from Lao Du, not even once!

Du Yi longed for family affection, but facing these young people, he couldn't help but want to take them for himself. He shook his head bitterly, took out a stack of banknotes in his arms and said, "Take your younger brothers and sisters to live a good life. Don't

Let them suffer, you are good!"

Zhao Yu stared blankly at Du Yi's lonely back. He was a little stunned for a moment, but when he woke up, there was still Du Yi's shadow there. Looking at the banknote in his hand, Zhao Yu's cheeks couldn't help but get wet!

In the early morning of the next day, heavy snow fell like feathers in the sky. Du Yi, who was in the inn, couldn't help but worry about the four children in the thatched house and whether they had found a place to eat and live. He ate something casually and let

Food was prepared in the kitchen and he walked towards the thatched house with the food box. He didn't know why he did this, but he just had an urge to take good care of these four children!

Disappointedly, when he arrived at the thatched house, there was no one there, but on the wall of the thatched house, there were four big blood-red characters written, "Thank you, benefactor". Du Yi put a smile on his lips, his heartstrings were touched, and he turned around with a complicated mood.

Disappeared at the end of the snow curtain!

··································

"Who are you?"

"Humph, who are you?"

"I am Du Yi, who are you and why do you look exactly like me!"

"What a good boy, I pretended to be your young master, so I'll give you a punch~!"

The two Du Yis were fighting to the death with great energy, but neither one could do anything to the other.

"ah!"

Du Yi stood up and found that his whole body was soaked. It turned out that he had had a dream. No, it should be an illusion that occurred while practicing the Jingxin Jue in the dream!

Du Yi was both surprised and worried. What surprised him was that he had mastered "Qing Xin Jue", and the beginning of "Qing Xin Jue" was to fall into a dream!

Du Yi's worry was the last words said by his other self in the dream: "You are upset!" Du Yi was silent for a while.

"My heart is still not calm enough!" Du Yi sighed and walked in front of the bronze mirror, only to find that his own hair in the mirror miraculously turned into black hair. He also did not expect that the Jingxin Technique has such a wonderful effect.

I feel relieved unconsciously!

After breakfast, Du Yi took a good wash and tied up his hair. He was dressed in white clothes and made him look like a gentleman. The jade pendant on his waist made Du Yi look perfectly round and majestic!

Du Yi left the inn and walked towards the back street. The back street of Daming Mansion is also called Antique Street. There are all kinds of antiques, calligraphy, paintings, jade, porcelain and everything you want!

Different from other streets, the back streets are not as noisy as other commercial streets. There are also differences between the people who come here and those who go to other commercial streets. They are all literati, merchants and wealthy merchants. As for ordinary people, they sometimes have enough food and clothing.

It's all a problem, and I don't have time to play with calligraphy, painting and antiques.

Antique Street is more than 300 feet long and 30 feet wide. Most of the shops on both sides are elegant. There are also some scattered small stalls on both sides of the street. Don’t underestimate these shops and small stalls. They gather merchants from all counties in Daming Prefecture, especially

Most of the idle stalls are filled with locals who specialize in digging graves with yin and yang shovels, so few people who come here to buy things want to chat with these people, for fear of getting bad luck!

Du Yi was not afraid of trouble. He walked around from house to house. After all, he had the treasure he got from Heifeng Village, so his thoughts were mostly focused on this. He was afraid of missing the treasure. He walked around half the street in the morning. It was a pity.

He found nothing. Just when he was about to eat something, an inconspicuous street stall caught Du Yi's attention!

There were not many things on the stall, only four. To be precise, what caught Du Yi's attention was a rusty iron rod. Speaking of which, there were very few weapons in this place, and the iron rod that appeared in front of him was stained with rust.

Apparently it was buried underground for a long time!

Du Yi stood up slightly and came to the stall, slowly groping for the iron rod, and casually asked: "What is this?"

The stall owner was a little down and out, his clothes were shabby, and the rice ball in his hand had a rancid taste. It was obvious that he was living a very poor life!

"I don't know. I took it out underground. After the master died, I brought the things to sell. If you like it, just give me some money!"

Listening to the change in his tone, Du Yi found that the man spoke very frankly and did not seem to be lying. He nodded silently, took out a banknote from his arms and handed it to the stall owner!

"Fifty taels, I want everything you have here!"

The stall owner was dumbfounded. He quickly took the banknote and looked at it again. He said overjoyed: "My mother is saved, my mother is saved!" After thanking Du Yi, he took the banknote and strode away!
