Chapter 172 Hell Is Already Here on Earth
While Kuang Shaoyi was speaking, the story on the screen had already moved forward.
Brother Chen caught the protagonist and Fatty Cong.
At the time of life and death, the protagonist shows his extremely fast lock-picking ability, which is appreciated by Brother Chen and saves his life.
As long as they kill someone, they can join the Ax Gang.
At night, the streets of Magic City are filled with singing and dancing, and the lights are bright and feasting.
The two squatted together with a group of beggars, coachmen, and shoe shiners.
The protagonist looked at the song and dance hall opposite and said firmly: "This world is full of money and women everywhere. Whoever can make up his mind can win, and whoever can seize the opportunity can get ahead. Be ruthless. Kill someone and officially join the Ax Gang, and you’ll have all the money and women.”
He dropped the harsh words.
Kill all the four-eyed boys first, and then kill the fat women and neighbors in the walled city.
…
Seeing this, some viewers expressed doubts.
The protagonist is not only not upright, but also a bit evil.
At the Magnolia Cinema in the Magic City, a family of three sat together.
The wife frowned and said: "This protagonist is a bit confusing. If it weren't for the director's filter, I would really scold him. First he blackmailed, then he blew up the second boss's head and pushed it on the neighbors. How could such a person become the protagonist? ?”
The husband shrugged, "It must be a growth-oriented protagonist. Director Chen can't possibly let himself play an unlikable role in his screen debut, right?"
"But up to now, regardless of his acting skills, just looking at what he did is really annoying." The wife muttered and turned her eyes to the screen again.
…
Fatty Cong said: "Those bastard neighbors are very good at martial arts."
"I can also do martial arts."
"You too?"
The protagonist chuckled and slowly turned to the camera, "Am I going to tell you that I have learned the Tathagata Palm?"
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and childhood memories emerged amid the sound of the guzheng.
An old beggar squatted in front of him and praised:
"Wow, it's incredible, it's incredible. You have a spiritual light that spurts out from the Tianling Cap. Did you know that? You have a body of muscles and bones that you can train at such a young age. You are a martial arts genius that is rare to see in a century. If one day I let you If you open up the two channels of Ren and Du, why don’t you fly to the sky?”
"As the saying goes, if I don't go to hell, who will."
"The task of policing evil, punishing rape, and maintaining world peace is left to you."
He nodded firmly, "Yeah!"
The old man took out a martial arts secret book "Tathagata Palm" and sold it to him for ten yuan.
He had 10 yuan, which was all his belongings. It was originally used to study and become a doctor or lawyer in the future.
But in order to maintain world peace, he gave the money to the old beggar, got the secret book and practiced martial arts hard. He was full of ambitions and wanted to act chivalrously and maintain peace.
That day, he encountered a group of teenage gangsters robbing a little girl of her lollipops. He acted righteously and used Tathagata Palm.
But he was knocked to the ground with a slap and punched and kicked by the gangsters.
Immediately afterwards, even more cruel news hit us all——
The young gangster picked up his martial arts secret book and exclaimed: "Wow, Tathagata Palm, and it costs two cents a copy!"
Martial arts secrets were thrown in the face.
The gangster's urine soon hit his cheeks.
The sad piano sound sounded slowly like flowing water, telling the pain in his heart.
"A fool, a mute, let him die!" The gangsters laughed and ran away.
The picture rippled again, and he recalled his memory.
"From then on, I understood that good people are not rewarded, and I want to be a bad person."
…
In front of the screen, the woman who was complaining about the protagonist just now fell silent.
I didn't feel sorry for the bullied boy, but I thought of myself.
Just now she was complaining that the protagonist was a villain.
But the sentence "Good people don't get rewarded, I want to be a bad person!" was like a thorn, piercing her heart directly.
She has also been a bad person, at least the kind of person she once hated the most...
Before she could sigh in detail, the story took a new direction.
on the screen.
In sad piano music.
The protagonist is in ragged clothes, squatting on the ground, clenching his fists, "I want to kill someone!"
As soon as he finished speaking, an ice cream cart rolled past.
"Ice cream!" Fatty Cong rushed over first.
"Where is it?" The protagonist's eyes suddenly became clear and he quickly followed.
Standing in front of the ice cream truck, he said in a lively voice, "Two cups, I want the cream one!"
"I want chocolate!" Fatty Cong said.
The two took the ice cream from the girl's hand.
The protagonist ate and his eyes met the girl's.
The brief innocence disappeared, and he looked like a gangster again, "What are you looking at? Have you ever seen people not paying for food?"
After saying that, he ran away with Fatty Cong and ran onto the tram.
He stood at the back of the tram, looking at the girl chasing them, looking at the girl who was bullied by them, and laughed loudly, "Hahaha, chase."
He smiled wildly, but his voice was filled with sadness.
With the soft and sad piano sound.
In every movie theater.
The child laughed and the adult was silent.
The woman who was complaining about the protagonist just now burst into tears.
She understands the protagonist so well.
Why is he smiling so sadly?
It was because he fell into the hell of evil, but it was also because he chose to fall into the hell of evil.
Although I had no choice but to take the initiative after all.
She also had this experience.
When she just graduated, she joined a university as a teaching administrator.
She wanted to be a good person and be responsible for everything that happened to her students.
Because when she was a student, she had experienced the counselor's favoritism and fraud, forming cliques with students, and even deducting her opportunities.
When she went to question him, the counselor even said to her, "I know what your family background is."
She didn't want to be such a person again. She had to do her best not to make mistakes and be responsible for every student.
But half a year later, she was really overwhelmed...
The previous relative got the nature of the course wrong, which caused problems with the students' postgraduate entrance examination results.
She wanted to correct the mistakes made by the previous relative to ensure that there would be no problems in the next class. But changing the nature of the course requires reporting to the Academic Affairs Office, and the college leaders may also be responsible.
So, she, who had no background, had more and more work, more and more, and even got blamed.
At that time, she understood.
The weak are weak everywhere.
She couldn't even survive herself, so what qualifications did she have to protect others?
She wanted to protect others like the protagonist, but was urinated on.
There was no way out.
Listen to the predecessors.
The previous relative made a big mistake, and the province sent people to investigate. The relative was recorded as a first-level teaching accident and transferred from his position.
What is the reality?
Transferred to a more relaxed position!
Is that a punishment? It is clearly a reward.
This is the end of being a bad guy, just like the Axe Gang, with women, money, and a life of feasting and drinking.
And what about her who wants to be a good person?
More and more work is assigned to her, working 80 hours a week without overtime pay, the leader is too powerful, there is no way to complain, and she dare not expose it. She suffers from severe depression due to excessive pressure and is laughed at by the leader.
This is the fucking reality!
This time, she finally understood what the counselor said, "I know what your family background is."
What capital does she have to be a good person?
So, she chose not to be a good person.
But since she fooled around and started to please the leader, she became a walking corpse and was in great pain.
Just like the protagonist at this time, smiling painfully, she took the initiative to become the kind of person she hated the most...
In the end, she couldn't stand the condemnation of her conscience and resigned.
"Mom, don't cry."
The daughter next to her handed over a piece of popcorn with a smile.
The woman wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, touched her daughter's head, and looked at the screen again.
She understood this smile.
This is the smile of giving up the original intention and taking the initiative to step into hell.
Hell is already in the world.
It's just that she can resign and leave.
And what about him? How should he climb out...
