C467 Selfish Freedom



C467 Selfish Freedom

0"You old thing, how can you scold people?!"    

    

When had Fox Eye been scolded so righteously?    

    

She immediately became unhappy.    

    

The atmosphere of the Jianghu immediately became tense, as if they were going to fight with their lives on the line.    

    

Prime Minister Qiu laughed and said, "Then tell me, what is your so-called freedom? What kind of price do you want to pay?"    

    

"Freedom is freedom!"    

    

"Hehe, so you can't even say that... In other words, the freedom you think is free to do as you wish. It is to do whatever you want, do whatever you want. Do whatever you want, make decisions according to your heart. Is that right?"    

    

Fox Eye felt that there was something wrong, but after thinking about it carefully, there was nothing wrong with it.    

    

She nodded her head.    

    

Prime Minister Qiu sighed and said, "Then what this old man scolded you was right."    

    

"You!"    

    

"The old man asked, I am here to ask you. When you practice martial arts, you need to eat and dress well. There are weapons that can be used, but they are not produced. Ordinary people might not be able to eat a meal of meat in a year. But you need to eat meat every meal. The cost is enormous. It also caused the Humble Class to have no masters. Have you ever thought about the abilities of the people in the pugilistic world? How much would it cost? Poor people are rich in martial arts. This has been the rule since ancient times."    

    

Fox Eye was stunned for a moment. She opened her mouth but could not say anything.    

    

Prime Minister Qiu laughed and said, "I know. Just now, you wanted to say that your childhood was also very bitter. Right? Cultivating is very tiring, right? But you know what? If it's tiring, a five-year-old child... To be able to walk and jump just now, he has to go up the mountain to chop firewood every day before dawn. Then, he would start a fire to cook and take care of his younger brother and sister. There was no time for him to be idle all day long. When he went to sleep at night, he would also have to take care of his younger brother. They would cry and make a fuss. They would wake up once every two hours. We have to take care of the older children at home, but they are only a few years old! "    

    

"I..."    

    

Fox Eye was stunned and still could not say anything.    

    

Prime Minister Qiu continued, "But these are not the worst. Hunger, you must have never felt it, right? It was not that you could not eat anything, but you could only eat a little. When he drank the porridge that he could not see the rice, his stomach started to swell. Then, it became even emptier. The sour water rolled up and he could spit it out with his mouth. Those who were hungry felt their legs wobble and their hearts scratching. Not to mention that they felt weak all over their bodies. Even walking on the road took a lot of effort, but even so... They still had to work and live a normal life. The children in the village... I've seen a thigh before. I pinch it with one hand. The middle finger will be able to touch the thumb. With one hand, it will be able to carry more than a hundred kilograms of firewood as they walk on the mountain road. I can't sit for the whole day on my way. If he sat down, he wouldn't be able to get up, and no one would be able to help him on the road... Many people were tired and had tuberculosis. They opened their mouths and spat out a mouthful of blood. After that, the family can arrange the funeral arrangements, the so-called funeral arrangements. They wouldn't even have a coffin. They would borrow money to buy a mat. Wrap it up, dig a hole and bury it. That's how it is for the rest of your life."    

    

Following Prime Minister Qiu's words, Fox Eye's expression became uglier and uglier.    

    

She did not understand that there was such a thing in this world.    

    

Prime Minister Qiu said, "So a martial artist should never say that he is bitter. Why should he? What right do you have to say that you are suffering? "    

    

"I..."    

    

Fox Eye was glad that she did not mention the hardships of practicing martial arts.    

    

Prime Minister Qiu continued, "You do not have to do labor, and you have to consume a lot of energy to live. Who provided it? Take you for example. When I saw you wearing it, I knew you were a martial artist. Who supported you when you were a child?"    

    

"Yes... Yes, Master."    

    

"Master? Hm, then have you thought about how you should repay your master?"    

    

"Return... return?"    

    

"That's right, this is also the reason why I have always looked down on people from the pugilistic world. They have never considered their elders, nor have they schemed for their descendants. As long as you live well, you will be fine. What is this? If this wasn't selfish, what was it? If your master is like you, hanging the so-called freedom by your mouth every day. Then he would have strangled you back then, and made you suffer for so many years, raising you into an adult. Providing a life that ordinary people wouldn't even dare to dream of, what he did... Was he stupid? Your master is an idiot? Is he happy just because he expended a lot of effort to support you? You were fooling around when you were a child, you didn't listen to the teachings, you were tired of practicing martial arts, and you even slandered him. That's all he wanted?"    

    

"I..."    

    

Fox Eye's eyelids twitched a few times.    

    

She suddenly realized that she had never thought of this.    

    

And she only felt wronged before.    

    

Because she had been sold by her master.    

    

This was very chilling.    

    

But now that he thought about it again, it seemed to be a little different.    

    

She seemed to have really let down her own master.    

    

Prime Minister Qiu said, "It's fine with all of this, but there will always be a day when he gets old. Right? He is now an expert, but there will always be times when he is bedridden. Who would take care of him then? You only care about your freedom outside and do not have much money to accumulate. Who will take care of your master then? You will watch him starve to death, or you will be living in another country. It is just the fact that I accidentally found out from a fellow villager that my master is dead. Is that so?"    

    

" I am not! "    

    

Fox Eye loudly retorted.    

    

However, beads of sweat appeared on her forehead and her eyes were filled with shock and fear.    

    

Prime Minister Qiu said, "What do you want when you come to this world? Parents have a long way to go for their children. I think your master is the same. For a man like you who advocates freedom, what should you do in the future? [What will happen to you in the future?] You definitely won't think about it, living in the Jianghu. In fact, you will have to follow the rules of the martial arts world and bear the cruelty of the martial arts world. A beautiful woman like you will fall into someone's hands one day. She would either be poisoned or defeated. If she was caught... You will end up in a very dangerous situation. The reason why they don't dare to touch you now... If you wait for him to grow old... If you can't move, no matter how strong you are, you will still be in danger. Just like how there is no tiger that doesn't take a nap, there will always be a moment when you are weak. The moment when you are careless, the moment you are waiting for... The endless abyss! "    

    

Prime Minister Qiu narrowed his eyes and stared at Fox Eye like a torch.    

    

It was as if he could see through people's hearts!    

    

He continued with an irresistible deep voice, "Let me guess, your master must have gone through some kind of hardship recently, or some very dangerous things. Right? "    

    

"You... How do you know?"    

    

Fox Eye asked with a shocked face. She even turned her head and looked at Xiao Yun, thinking that Xiao Yun must have told him.    

    

However, Xiao Yun shook his head.    

    

Prime Minister Qiu continued, "You are very curious how this old man knew? It is actually very simple. Because if this old man is your master... Only after some unforeseen events have occurred, will I realize that I can't protect you anymore... Only then would he introduce you to Young Master Xiao, or entrust you to him. After all, in this world, there is no place safer than Xiao Yun. "    

    

Entrusted?    

    

Fox Eye had never thought of this word.    

    

She only thought that she was sold.    

    

But she had never thought about whether this was a method that her master entrusted to her.
