Chapter 640 Why Suffering

I don’t know what Bo Yikao said, if he answered wrongly at this time, it means that his “journey” is over.

Not only that, if the story of the eldest son of Xibo Hou stealing fruits is spread, he will be considered a society dead.

But how to answer?

Acknowledge that he was a slave to a certain noble?

What about slave seal?

Also why did he live here and not go back to the master's house?

As for pretending to be a "noble" in trouble?

This is not a war period. As a nobleman, he was wandering to the territory of another nobleman and just came to ask for help. Why do you need to steal the fruit?

At this time, Bo Yikao was still not angry that those people offered him.

Faced with the torture of the nobles, we cannot expect these ordinary civilians to have a hard bone and mouth.

"It seems... it's a runaway slave?" The noble had raised his lips and began to show a ferocious smile.

He didn't care about the fruits in the orchard.

What he cares about is authority, life and death, and things belonging to him. No one is allowed to take them away without permission!

These little nobles who face the bottom have cunning, vicious and cruel that those great nobles have never had...

They are the bottom of the power class, but they are the first ceiling above the heads of civilians and slaves.

This little nobleman may have guessed that the down-and-out man in front of him was not a fugitive slave.

But so what?

The other party has a hidden secret.

This is where he can grasp the other person.

If a nobleman can be taken as a slave, it will greatly satisfy his inner vanity.

"Since you are a runaway slave, in order to repay the fruit you owe me, you will be my slave in the future." The nobleman said as he took out a red iron seal from his arms. This special seal made of hematite as raw material will become extremely hot when it comes into contact with his skin. Most of the little nobles will carry it with him.

"The law of Xiqi stipulates that if civilians are plundered for no reason as slaves, ten acres of fertile land and one hundred kilograms of grain will be confiscated." Bo Yikao could only use the law to talk about it again, which seemed to have become his only reliance now.

The nobles did not refute when they heard this, but just smiled.

Then he said, "You will regret it, I'll wait for you to think about it."

Then he turned around and left.

But there was still eyeliner in the secret, staring at Bo Yikao.

More than 20 civilians were tied to stone pillars because of the stolen stolen people and hung in the sun, exposed to the sun for days.

The whipped wound began to inflame and pus flowed.

At first they would whine and beg for mercy, but later they would even breathe weakly.

According to Xiqi law, civilians who are arrested for stealing property will be punished with whipping and public display due to different values ​​of property theft, ranging from three to seven days.

This punishment is not too heavy, but it can achieve the effect of being widely publicized and shameful to the thief. Therefore, in Xiqi City, the doors are not closed at night.

However, now, Bo Yikao saw this law he wrote himself, another way of use in another land in Xiqi.

The originally polite law seems so cruel at this time.

The punishment of whipping and public display should have been chosen, but because the sentencing is unknown, he was punished at the same time.

It takes between three days and seven days... Maybe it is calculated directly based on the heaviest seven days.

Bo Yikao stood under the stone pillar and looked up at the thin faces.

They no longer have the expectation of living in their eyes, just like they are already corpses.

Perhaps they know better than Bo Yikao what will be waiting for in the future.

Under the premise of imbalance in status, any so-called legal constraints can be one-way.

"I told you, don't continue... I told you clearly." Bo Yikao looked at the people who betrayed him, and was suffering and annoyed, but was eroding his heart.

He suddenly made a decision!

He wants to announce his identity and rescue them.

Even though reputation leaves a stain, it is twenty lives after all. Gu Feng

Bang!

A stone hit Bo Yikao's forehead fiercely.

Blood flowed out instantly.

The person who smashed the stones towards Boyikao was a young man who was only ten years old.

Behind the boy, there are some elderly people and children.

They also hold stones in their hands.

"Smash him!" After a shout, more stones flew towards Bo Yikao.

Bo Yikao dodged in a mess, but because of his weakness, there were still a large number of stones that had not been avoided.

Not only was he smashed into a bruised nose, a bruise, and a lot of bruises on his body.

If it weren't for the strong foundation of the body, I'd probably have all been broken and injured.

He ran to the woods not far away in a panic, and Bo Yi ran away with one step deep and one step shallow.

There is no doubt that the January test Cao Zhe gave him seemed to have failed!

He failed to integrate well into the civilians here, but instead became the object of their hatred, and instead turned himself into a despicable thief.

Sitting on the hillside, Bo Yikao's body was covered with scars.

But his heart was even more decayed than his body.

"Why did they hit me with stones?"

"I did something wrong!"

"They really dare to steal fruit because of me."

"It's even more because of my retreat, I'm caught!"

"The cause is me, and the result is me! But it was not me who punished them, why did they smash me?" Bo Yikao could not understand, this was a different concept.

This short experience truly crushed and torn down all the three views, cognitions and concepts he formed over the past twenty years.

"Because you don't understand what is real suffering."

"You don't know what it means to be really good to them and to truly help them." Cao Zhe's voice rang behind Bo Yikao.

Bo Yikao said with a dim expression: "I failed!"

"It's time for me to go back!"

"Then, as I am, pass by here, save those who have been for me."

Cao Zhe said: "Did you really save them?"

"As you, you can easily change their destiny."

"But is this just a matter of twenty people?"

"Do you know, at the same time, how many people in the world are unable to eat? How many people are not covered in their clothes? How many people lose their lives because of the abuse of rights by the nobles?"

Bo Yikao said in a daze: "Yes! I don't know! I don't know at all!"

"I thought Xiqi was the best place in the world, and I thought everyone should like it because it is a paradise we have carefully created."

"But it's not, it's just my self-conception."

"There are still many people suffering, why is this happening?"

"Those immortals and geniuses may just need to breathe and wave their hands to make countless people eat and wear warm clothes. The nobles have countless food, fruits and vegetables, and a large number of cattle, sheep and horses, but the people still live a bad life... very bad!"

What Bo Yikao said at this time was no longer the matter in front of him, but also a question that had been buried deep in his heart.

Everyone who knows that immortals and gods exist and has good thoughts may have thought so.

Why, they are unwilling to do things for people that are easy for immortals?

"The direction is wrong!"

"Heaven moves hard, and a gentleman strives for self-improvement."

"The power of immortals and gods is the power of immortals and gods. What you need to think about is not to beg for their help, but how can we turn them into us, and then let us use our own strength and hands to change all this." Cao Zhe said seriously to Bo Yikao.
