The Infinite Journey of Cruelty

Seeing the uneasy expressions of the two little guys, Li Wei smiled lightly, but quickly subsided, which was not funny.

​​

Ordinary people in this world also have the force that is not lost to powerful and dangerous species, which is destined to be able to become a high-ranking person as long as there is talent and hard work in the empire.

​​

It's just that the Imperial Fist Temple and the noble family completely blocked the way for ordinary people to become stronger, just like the breathing method. If the breathing method can spread, ordinary people can rely on the numerical advantage to crush the noble family and the nobles.

​​

"Brother, as long as there is an emperor, the empire will always be like this..." Chi Tong lowered his head and said blankly.

​​

Feeling that her elder sister's mood seemed wrong, Hei Tong hugged some elder sisters tightly.

​​

Li Wei reacted from his thoughts and heard Chi Tong ask again, he said: "The feudal system will not remain effective forever, the society is progressing, and the current turmoil in the empire is the contradiction between the backward state management system and the ever-changing society. No one wants to be oppressed. The emperor will not exist forever, continue to oppress the people, he will be overthrown one day.”

​​

"Really?" Although he didn't quite understand it, there was still some hope in Chi Tong's eyes.

​​

She didn't want to see slaves being trafficked like livestock, and she didn't want children like them to be abandoned and have to wander.

​​

As long as no one robs others of the fruits of their labor, everything should be fine, right?

​​

"This is a relatively complicated subject, and you may not understand it very well now. It needs accumulation." Li Wei replied nonchalantly, making Chi Tong not so excited.

​​

He expressed his satisfaction that Chi Tong and Hei Tong had such a high level of consciousness. Being able to seek well-being for the common people is a noble virtue, and no one will hate them, as long as they are properly guided and don't let them go astray.

​​

At this time, the food they ordered was delivered.

​​

The cooking in the early 20th century was average, but overall it was better than the unaltered roasts, stews, and steamed meats in the forest.

​​

After Chi Tong and Hei Tong were full, Li Wei checked out and left.

​​

They had just left the hotel and hadn't gone very far when Chi Tong and Hei Tong stopped in front of the alley next to the hotel that was connected to the side door, and looked into the alley blankly.

​​

Noticing that the two had stopped, Li Wei also stopped, and following Chi Tong and Hei Tong's gaze, he looked at the scene in front of the hotel's side door.

​​

Two thinly-clothed and unkempt vagabonds were lying on the wooden barrels containing food scraps by the side door of the hotel, digging out the food inside to eat.

​​

Their hands were full of oil stains and residues, and they found a bone with shredded meat. They would lick it clean without letting go of a bit of meat on it.

​​

When Chi Tong and Hei Tong saw this scene, their bodies couldn't help trembling.

​​

In the old town, Sister Aina brought back some bones with meat for them to taste. They were very happy, but when they asked about the source, they only got a complicated look and a perfunctory smile.

​​

Now, they seem to understand where the meat that saved their lives came from...

​​

A sour feeling emanating from the bottom of their hearts made Chi Tong and Hei Tong tremble uncontrollably. Instead of being angry because of Aina's concealment, they were saddened by the appearance of this phenomenon, and at the same time they were aroused by many bad things. Memories.

​​

Once Chitong couldn't cry, if she did that, it would make Heitong sad, but now there were tears in her eyes, although it was only a momentary emotional outburst.

​​

Hei Tong's tears also slowly slid down his face, he turned around and lay on Li Wei's body, a little afraid to look at the scene in the alley.

​​

Not only them, Li Wei was also shocked by the image of the two children slicing food in a bucket.

He has seen disasters in all kinds of big scenes, but he rarely seems to focus on these tiny details.

​​

"Let's go first."

​​

He took a deep look at the two children who were eating food in the alley. Li Wei took Chi Tong and Hei Tong and left temporarily. Before leaving, he took out two silver coins from his pocket, and Qu finger flicked them. at the feet of a child.

​​

After he lost all interest in shopping, Li Wei took the lost Chi Tong and Hei Tong to the hotel and opened only one room.

​​

Chi Tong and Hei Tong sat on the bed, leaning against each other wordlessly, unable to recover from the trance.

​​

Seeing this, Li Wei asked in a low voice, "Tell me about what happened before you came to the forest."

​​

Chi Tong and Hei Tong, who were in a trance, nodded, their pupils slackened, and in a simple and unpretentious way, they described their homeless life after they were abandoned, as well as the people and things they encountered on the way.

​​

The more they talked, the more their bodies trembled, and the memory of the days when they were unable to eat was enough to make them terrified.

​​

After listening to the two of them, Li Wei stepped forward and hugged them gently to help them calm down.

​​

"Brother, can you teach us how to overthrow the emperor?" After Li Wei's teaching, although Chi Tong had not yet understood the concept of class, he had already determined the target of hostility and made such a request to him.

​​

They want to change all this and overthrow the emperor!

​​

Only in this way will they not feel that life has no meaning.

​​

Although Hei Tong didn't speak, his eyes were still firm and eager.

​​

"Do you know what the ideal world looks like?"

​​

Hearing the sincere requests of Chi Tong and Hei Tong, Li Wei answered the question again, and said with a little longing: "There is no exploitation, productivity can be liberated, farmers will not be trapped in the farmland for life, and workers will have time to go home after work. With the kids at home."

​​

"There you will see that no one starves to death for lack of food, because it is a world where everyone only needs to work a short time to create a huge amount of food. There, workers are protected. , the salary of working every day is enough to support themselves and their families, and if they are short of money, they can choose to work overtime freely and get more money.”

​​

"Children will be concentrated in public schools every day, and teachers will teach them to learn to read. They can enjoy their childhood happily instead of wandering the streets every day."

​​

"Everyone is equal there, people are no longer high and low, and everyone will be punished fairly when they make mistakes. There is no more royal family, no more nobles, and everyone has a common citizenship..."

​​

Li Wei gently hugged Chi Tong and Hei Tong, depicting a world as beautiful as heaven for the two, a huge society that no one had ever imagined.

​​

"Such a social structure is called a communist society!"

​​

Chi Tong and Hei Tong raised their heads and asked expectantly, "Is there really such a world?"

​​

"Do you want to live in that kind of society?" Li Wei asked rhetorically with a smile.

​​

Chi Tong and Hei Tong naturally kept nodding their heads. If there really was such a world, they would definitely be willing!

​​

Li Wei smiled and sighed, rubbing the heads of the two of them and said, "If you want a world like this, you need everyone to work hard together..."

​​

"Uh-huh!"

​​

"Well, I hope I can leave you with a fantastic start when I leave."

​​

"...?"
