The loud shouts echoed over the Koishikawa Health Center, overwhelming almost all the voices present.
Qingdeng looked around and saw a ragged warrior glaring at a pair of girls among the layers of dirty "color blocks".
The appearance of these two girls is very similar, they should be a pair of sisters.
They all look young. The older one is only 15.6 years old at most. The younger one is about 11.2 years old.
Both sisters were extremely thin, their faces were so pale that there was no trace of blood, their cheeks were deeply sunken, and their arms, calves, and fingers exposed outside their clothes were as skinny as dry wood, with only a thin layer of skin covering the bones.
The hair, which has no trace of maintenance at all, is dark yellow and messy like weeds in autumn.
If the warrior who was glaring at the sisters... or most of the patients and their families around them who were waiting to see the doctor were just in tatters, then the clothes on the sisters... were simply
It can’t be called clothes! It’s just a piece of rag that would be disgusted if used as a rag!
The fabric and color on the clothes have fallen off in pieces due to old age. The remaining cloth color has become dull and black, making it impossible to identify the original color of the clothes.
There are numerous holes, big or small, but there are only a few patches.
The cold wind in winter kept missing these holes and got into the clothes. The sisters' delicate bodies were shivering all the time. Their dark and thick skin was covered with goosebumps that never went away.
.
From head to toe, every part of the body of these two sisters silently declares to outsiders the fact that they are the lowest class of society in the Edo period, and they are the kind of people who have trouble even eating.
The most filthy of all filth.
How to tell if a person is dirty?
This is actually very simple.
Just by looking at his appearance, temperament, and clothing, you can basically guess who he is.
As long as anyone has a certain amount of social experience and experience, they can basically recognize at a glance that these two sisters are very ugly, and they are absolutely unmistakable.
Many people always have a misunderstanding, that is, they think that all bad people live a miserable life without even food to eat.
This view is actually wrong.
Not only are some filthy lives not miserable, but they live a more nourishing life than most civilians and middle- and lower-level warriors.
Most of the professions that filthy people are allowed to engage in are dirty trades that ordinary people are afraid to avoid.
For example: undertakers who carry corpses at funerals, full-time cleaners, butchers and leather makers, etc.
In the traditional Japanese concept, four-legged livestock such as pigs, cattle, and sheep are filthy and cannot be eaten, so butchers are considered despicable.
Under the Edo shogunate, those who worked as butchers and leather manufacturers were basically filthy.
At first glance, the work of dealing with animal carcasses and feces and urine all year round seems very hard and disgusting, but from another perspective, this may not be an opportunity and a way to make money.
Normal people keep a distance from the two professions of butchers and leather makers - this means that the bad guys basically have a semi-monopoly on the slaughtering and leather industries.
Because they can eat a large amount of pigs, sheep, and beef that are unacceptable to the general public, many people engaged in the slaughtering industry basically have no shortage of protein intake, and their bodies may be healthier and stronger than ordinary civilians and warriors.
Leather is a commodity that is in short supply as long as you find the right way, you will never worry about not being able to sell it.
Many business-minded people make a lot of money selling leather.
After the founding of Japan, the sharply rising foreign trade demand for leather and other commodities became a new trend.
Many filthy people relied on this stock style to transform themselves into millionaires.
However, these people who can live a happy life without worrying about food and drink are only a very small number of lucky people.
Obviously - the scrawny and frail sisters do not fall into this category.
The sudden shout of the ragged warrior attracted the attention and attention of everyone around him.
In full view of the public, the ragged warrior took a deep breath, gathered enough strength, and issued a new wave of accusations against the Hudo sisters in front of him:
"Hey! Didn't you hear me? Are your ears deaf? Do you know where this is? This is a place where people are treated and treated! It's not a slaughterhouse where you process animal carcasses! Who allowed you to
Are you here? Get out of here quickly!"
The elder sister among the Hui Duo sisters, while holding her sister tightly in her arms, said timidly and anxiously:
"Takeru, Master Samurai! I know where this place is. I'm just here to bring my sister here to see a doctor! The shogunate's decree does not stipulate that Kudo is not allowed to come to Koishikawa Health Center for treatment!"
After hearing Sister Huido's explanation, the ragged warrior sneered disdainfully.
"The decree of the shogunate? Are you kidding me? You are not allowed to enter and leave any public places at will. Isn't this a matter of course?"
Speaking of this, the ragged warrior frowned and raised his hands to cover his mouth and nose.
"It would be fine if you bastards appeared elsewhere, but in the end, you are so damned that you appear here!"
"Do you know that the evil energy in your body will pollute the environment here? The longer you stay here, the more serious the pollution will be! By then, let alone patients who are already sick, even if
Even people who are not sick will be made sick by you!"
In the traditional Japanese concept, not only is the body dirty, but even the exhaled breath is smelly. If a normal person is exposed to too much evil energy, the body will become weak and sick.
The Tattered Warrior's criticism of the Hudo sisters was not only not resisted, but also received unanimous praise and support.
"That's it! That's it!"
"Hey! They are so filthy! Quick, stay away from them! Don't get close to them!"
"No wonder I've been feeling uncomfortable since just now. It turns out there's a lot of filth here!"
"Quick! Cover your mouth and nose quickly, be careful of inhaling evil spirits from them!"
"Hey! Dirty! Go away! Unclean people like you are not welcome here!"
…
Under the personal leadership of the ragged warrior, the crowd around the Hudo sisters retreated one after another.
In the blink of an eye, a vacuum zone appeared in the turbid oily "color layer" with the Hudo sisters as the center.
Isolated and surrounded by overwhelming abuse and rebuke, the sisters were like a small boat drifting on the boundless sea.
Under the rolling waves, this helpless boat was so small and fragile, as if a wave could knock it over and drag it forever to the bottom of the dark sea.
Humans are social animals with a strong need for social interaction, so this feeling of being criticized by thousands of people... Anyone who has experienced it knows how painful and terrifying it is.
However, the Huiduo sisters, who were enduring the flood of accusations and strong hostility that could easily crush a person's psychological defenses, showed a different kind of strength at this moment.
The younger sister hugged her older sister's waist tightly like a koala, her big and bright eyes filled with bright tears.
It was clear that fear had covered her entire face, and she was so uneasy that she was about to cry, but she just bit her lip to prevent the tears from falling out of her eyes, and to prevent herself from making any sound.
The elder sister held her younger sister firmly in her arms. The fear on her face and the tears accumulated in her eyes were no less than those of her younger sister.
But she did exactly the same thing as her sister - biting her lip, resisting the urge to be frightened and cry.
It was as if the two sisters had long been accustomed to this kind of scene.
I saw my sister exhaling forcefully, suppressing and sorting out her emotions, hoarsely, and shouted in a voice that was obviously crying:
"My sister has been suffering from abdominal pain since yesterday. The pain is so severe that she can't eat anything. She needs to see a doctor. Although we are humble and filthy, we..."
The elder sister tried to express her love for her, hoping to exchange understanding, sympathy, and mercy from the people around her by describing her difficult condition.
However, my sister's efforts not only failed to work, but also had the opposite effect.
As soon as the sister who was fighting alone spoke up, her plea was swallowed up by the fierce taunts coming from all directions, without any splashing.
The two sisters swallowed back tears and sobbed, which greatly aroused the brutality of the perpetrators and...the sense of justice that they thought they were doing justice for heaven.
In an instant, the curses, ridicules, and malice surrounding the Hui Duo sisters increased rapidly.
"Your sister has a stomachache, so what? My brother is also very sick!"
"That's right! Is your family the only one who is in a hurry to get medical treatment? Open your eyes and see! Who here is not in a hurry to see a doctor?"
"Compared with how filthy you are, our lives are much more valuable!"
"Seven obscene lives are worth one of our ordinary lives!"
"Leave now! Who do you think you are? Our lives are worth saving more than yours!"
…
Changed.
Changed.
Everything has changed.
Those faces that were full of bitterness and resentment, weather-beaten, disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Instead, there were upright faces with raised eyebrows and grinning teeth.
It is obvious that everyone present is a poor and miserable poor person. In terms of quality of life, they may not necessarily be better than the ugly sisters.
As a result, each of them, at this moment, cast a look full of contempt at the Hudo sisters, putting on an arrogant face that they thought they were superior.
Almost without exception, those who urged the Hudo sisters to leave this place now have righteous and awe-inspiring expressions as if they are doing some just cause.
Qingdeng thought to himself: This is not so much "bullying" as it is a "carnival".
A carnival where you can freely vent the negative emotions that have been accumulated in your heart for a long time without having to worry about paying the price and consequences afterwards.
When 10 people bully one person, it is called bullying; when 10,000 people bully one person, it is called justice. This famous saying whose original author is no longer known is truly a burning truth.
Whether this sentence is placed in the information age of the 21st century or in the feudal era that Qingdeng currently lives in, it exudes a strong vitality that cannot be wiped out.
Some people just want to take advantage of this rare opportunity to enjoy the pleasure of bullying others from a high position, while some people are very sophisticated and want to take this opportunity to reduce the number of people in line.
The sister who couldn't argue at all was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
Although she tried her best to appease everyone's emotions and win their sympathy, the situation still got irreparably out of control.
"Damn! I'm so annoyed! You don't want to move, right? OK! I'll help you move!"
It's the tattered warrior acting like a monster again.
He opened his big hand, grabbed his sister's hair, and then roughly dragged her out of the queue like a large piece of garbage.
"Ahhhhh!"
My sister screamed.
The crisp sound of hair being torn apart resounded one after another.
The ragged warrior really showed no mercy, and my sister's entire scalp was slightly lifted up.
The combination of the ferocity of the ragged warrior and the screams of Sister Huiduo gives people the illusion that "this woman's head will be torn off at any time."
Driven by the inherent human herd mentality, the atmosphere of this carnival was pushed to the climax in one breath.
Others followed suit and followed the example of the ragged warrior and attacked Sister Huido directly.
You hold your hand, I move my feet, and we work together to drag my sister out of the queue.
From just now, Tokugawa Iemo, Tenzouin and others have looked filled with indignation.
"Shogun-sama...!" Yae gritted his teeth in anger at the atrocities in front of him and cast a pleading look at Tokugawa Iemo.
Although Sasashige on the side remained silent, he also looked up at Tokugawa Iemo with a wistful expression.
What does double sister mean? Needless to say.
"..." Tokugawa Iemo was silent for a moment thoughtfully.
After a breath, he turned his head and looked at the direction of Qingdeng.
"Tachibana...huh?"
The expression on Tokugawa Iemo's face was dominated by astonishment.
It was only then that he discovered that Qing Deng had disappeared from where he was at some point...
…
"elder sister!"
The younger sister yelled out her first words since everyone violently attacked the two sisters.
She is very courageous.
When her sister was in trouble, she bravely stepped forward.
It was her sister who had been protecting her just now, and now it was her turn to protect her sister!
But...she is not much taller than a fighting knife. It is not easy for her to protect herself, let alone devote her energy to protecting others?
However, from another perspective, such a small body is suitable for launching sneak attacks on people.
Taking advantage of the ragged warrior's unpreparedness, the younger sister quietly pounced on the ragged warrior's back, opened her mouth, and bit the ragged warrior's waist.
"Ahhhh!" The ragged warrior lowered his head in pain and glared with red eyes at his sister who was biting the flesh of his waist and refusing to let go, "Damn it! You little beast!"
The ragged warrior let go of his sister's hair, and raised his free big hand like a cattail leaf high - judging from his movements, demeanor and muscle tension, there is no doubt that his slap would have been severe.
, the thin and young sister would not be seriously injured even if she did not die suddenly on the spot.
"No!" Seeing her sister in trouble, her sister wailed at the top of her lungs and struggled like crazy, trying to get rid of other people's control over her and eager to return to her sister as quickly as possible.
My sister's will is firm and strong - but this resolute mental strength cannot instantly increase her physical strength and strength a hundredfold.
How could she, a weak, malnourished woman, be able to compete with so many men in their prime?
She tried her best to resist, but she was still dragged out of the queue little by little, and further and further away from her sister.
"You're just so filthy, but you dare to bite me!"
While the ragged warrior cursed angrily, his raised arm tensed up - power began to gather in his raised arm.
Just when the ragged warrior was about to throw a lightning bolt that could seriously injure or even kill his sister——
"Hello."
The ragged warrior suddenly felt someone pressing his shoulder from behind.
"ah?"
The ragged warrior, whose strength and concentration had been interrupted, turned his head and looked back impatiently.
Before he could see who it was, he suddenly felt as if he had been hit by an express carriage on his side.
"Pooh!"
His head jerked forward, and his body bent into a twisted bow shape centered on the position where Qingden kicked him.
The next moment, the bow suddenly straightened. It changed from the fully drawn half-moon shape back to the ordinary upright shape.
The ragged warrior who was kicked away by Qingden left a series of screams in mid-air and fell down on the red dirt road 5 steps away.
Qingden retracted the leg that kicked the ragged warrior away, used the action of retracting the leg to adjust the posture and direction of his body, and then - rushed out with a punch! He hit the left side of a middle-aged man who was holding Sister Huiduo's right arm.
Face.
Immediately afterwards, Qingden swept his fist to the right, turned the fist into a hand knife, and cut straight into the neck of a tall young man on the right side of Sister Huduo.
Qingdeng's movements were unhurried, as if he had completely controlled the space.
He didn't just fight randomly, but he punched and kicked in a methodical and meticulous manner.
Not lacking in organization, but also full of efficiency.
Too fast. Qingdeng's movements were too fast.
Many people were knocked to the ground by Qingden before they even had time to react.
In just over 10 seconds, the area around the Hudo sisters was cleared into a "vacuum zone" where no one except Qingdeng could stand safely.
"Mom, damn...!"
The ragged warrior cursed and struggled to his feet while covering the area where Qingto had just kicked him.
"Which one...gu...!"
The ragged warrior was like a duck that had been strangled by the neck. Any curses that he could not utter were forced back into his stomach.
The reason why he was like this was because after he got up from the ground, he suddenly discovered the person who kicked him away... Qingteng wore two swords, a long and a short sword, symbolizing his status as a warrior.
A strong look of fear crept onto his face, and his whole body froze in place.
It was okay that he didn't get up. As soon as he got up, he immediately attracted Qingdeng's piercing gaze.
Qingdeng didn't say anything - he stepped forward with an arrow and kicked the ragged warrior further away.
This time, the ragged warrior completely lost consciousness and passed out, unable to get up again.
[Ding! Talent scanned]
[Successfully copied talent: "Trickster"]
[Talent introduction: When lying, the face does not blush and the heart does not beat, making it difficult for people to detect anything strange]
[Ding! It has been detected that the host already has the same type of talent]
[Ding! Start talent fusion]
[Ding! "Fraudster" and "Fraudster" begin to merge]
[Please wait a moment, host...Please wait a moment, host...]
[Ding! Talent fusion successful]
["Fraudster" ability promotion - "Fraudster +1"]
["Trickster +1" talent introduction: The talent effect is enhanced on the original basis. "+9" is the highest level]
…
The system sound sounded in my mind, and it was a system sound with quite good content.
However, Qingdeng couldn't bear to savor the joy of having the talent to evolve at the moment.
Qingdeng swept his gaze calmly, looking around him and around the space that was now dominated by silence.
Who else wants to cause trouble? Qingdeng's indifferent eyes accurately conveyed this message.
All the people caught by Qingdeng's gaze lowered their heads, not daring to look at Qingdeng or make any eye contact with Qingdeng.
Those who just now arrogantly threatened to ask Sister Huiduo to get out of here don't even dare to fart.
Changed.
Changed.
Everything has changed.
Those righteous faces with raised eyebrows and grinning teeth have disappeared.
Instead, there were expressions of fear and silence, like a small animal shivering under the gaze of its natural enemies and not even daring to breathe.
The sharp transformation of identity creates a comical effect.
The perpetrators become the victims simply because they encounter someone "level" above them.
Feudal society...or the essence of human society is vividly displayed in this small world at this moment.
