Chapter 6: Friendship, Dislike

'No more!'

Li Yu's expression suddenly changed.

If he cannot join the gang, he will have a hard time in the future, let alone improve his cultivation and become a superior person.

Of course, he still has his special skills.

He knew that he had average talent in martial arts and it would be difficult to achieve anything, so he practiced hidden weapons.

Now I have achieved some success. I can basically hit whatever I point at within five meters.

But he is left-handed and he also practices using left-handed hidden weapons.

If the left-handed force technique is used, it will inevitably tear the chest and lung wounds. At that time...

"Okay, he's injured, so let's leave it at that."

At this time, Yao Sheng suddenly spoke in the yard.

"!!"

Everyone looked up in surprise.

"Are you injured?"

Yan Liu's expression changed.

He didn't expect that Li Yu was still injured, which made Brother Yao look at him with higher regard, which was extraordinary.

"Since Brother Yao has spoken, congratulations."

"me……"

Li Yu was extremely delighted and bowed immediately.

"Thank you, Senior Brother! Thank you, Senior Brother! By the way, my name is Li Yu."

The first sentence of thanks was directed to Yan Liu, and the second sentence of thanks was directed to Yao Sheng in the courtyard.

"This is not a martial arts hall, so you don't need to call me senior brother. My name is Yan Liu, so you can just call me Brother Liu from now on. The brother Yao who's talking inside is the boss of our outer courtyard. The boss, this, do you know?
Yan Liu waved his hand to correct him, and when he mentioned it, Yao Sheng couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"Sixth brother! Brother Yao!"

Li Yu immediately changed his words.

"By the way, do you know the two behind?"

Yan Liu asked again.

"Those are my two former junior brothers from the martial arts school."

Li Yu took a look and replied:
"The tall one has strong bones, is stronger than the average person, and has a good talent for martial arts. He's a promising one. The shorter one has average talent for martial arts, and is particularly stubborn..."

"Oh~~"

Yan Liu understood.

Tall people can be trained, but short people do not need to be trained.

Most people hate stubborn people.

"You haven't eaten yet, come in and eat."

Yan Liu pulled Li Yu into the yard.

Soon someone gave Li Yusheng a big bowl of fragrant white porridge.

Then Li Yu became a member of the Dahe Gang who squatted to eat and was envied by many people outside.

At this time, Wang Yuan and Zhang Zheng had only walked halfway.

"!"

Zhang Zheng looked at Li Yu with envy as he entered the yard to eat.

He now wished he could get there immediately and pass the selection to enter the yard to eat.

But he still has to wait for Yuan to come together.

Li Yu didn't understand the relationship between him and A Yuan. When he was a child, before the drought, A Yuan had always taken care of him and often gave him delicious food, which brought him a lot of happiness and warmth in his childhood and youth.

He remembered all of this, so...

"A Yuan, Senior Brother Li has joined the Dahe Gang. When I join, I will have two people to look after you."

"You-I believe that Li Yu will not take care of me. It's enough if he doesn't harm me."

Wang Yuan shook his head slightly.

"Ok?"

Zhang Zheng's expression froze.

"No way? How could Senior Brother Li harm you? After all, we have been brothers for many years and have been through hardships together until now?"

"Brother Zheng, you have to know that the people who can harm you are often those close to you. Don't trust anyone 100% at any time.

Wang Yuan looked at Zhang Zheng seriously.

"!!!"

Zhang Zheng couldn't believe that Wang Yuan would say such a thing, but having grown up in poverty and having seen too much of the darkness of human nature during the three-year drought, he knew that what Wang Yuan said was indeed right.

"Yuan, I will never hurt you!"

"Well, I believe you! We are different from him."

Wang Yuan nodded.

"Well, it's different!"

Zhang Zheng nodded heavily.

People have different natures. He and Yuan are both kind-hearted people who value friendship and loyalty, while Li Yu is relatively more selfish and unfeeling. The two gradually approached the wooden house.

At this time, the white-clothed coolies of the Dahe Gang had finished their meal and came out one by one holding gongs or stretchers.

"Dang Dang Dang..."

A man was beating the gong hard.

"Get up! Everyone, get up! Any reports of death?"

"If there are any people with fever or illness, don't hide them! Catch them and punish them severely!"

The riverbank was alarmed, and all the surviving refugees quickly sat up.

Unless they freeze to death or cannot get up for other reasons.

This is a daily process.

Because dead and sick people may cause plague, causing more deaths.

This is absolutely not allowed by the higher-ups now, so let the three major forces be responsible for this matter.

The specific execution is the responsibility of the Dahe Gang, and if someone dies, they will be carried away and buried far away.

The sick were handed over to the Jinta Society. If they didn't get better after taking two doses of medicine, they would be burned directly...

There is no emotion at all.

After three years of drought, everything became organized and simple.

This is the current governance policy for this area.

……

Finally, Wang Yuan and Zhang Zheng arrived outside the Dahe Gang yard together.

Yao Sheng, Yan Liu and Li Yu did not go out and were all in the yard at this time.

Li Yu had already washed and changed his clothes, his eyes were bright.

If it weren't for the injuries, I guess...

"You, lift that stone lock. If you can lift it, you can join the Dahe Gang."

Yan Liu pointed at the stone lock in the yard and said to Zhang Zheng outside.

"it is good!"

Zhang Zheng glanced at the 100-pound stone lock in the yard and nodded.

The process was simple and a bit strenuous, but Zhang Zheng still lifted it up.

Two years ago, when he was just fifteen years old, he could easily lift a 250-kilogram stone lock.

"Okay, from now on you will be a member of the Dahe Gang."

Yan Liu announced immediately.

"Congratulations, A Zheng, this is Brother Yao, the boss of our courtyard, and this is Brother Six, a very powerful master in our courtyard."

Li Yu stepped forward to congratulate him and introduced the people in the yard to Zhang Zheng.

Firstly, it shows his relationship with Zhang Zheng, and secondly, it shows that he has been recognized by everyone in the hospital for his unique abilities.

"Brother Yao! Sixth Brother!"

Zhang Zheng followed and called for help.

"Then I've left some porridge for you, go and eat it."

Yao Sheng pointed to the dishes and chopsticks placed aside.

"Thank you, Brother Yao!"

Zhang Zheng was touched. The people in Brother Yao's yard were really nice.

But he hasn't forgotten Wang Yuan outside the courtyard.

"Brother Yao, can you share some of this porridge with my brother?"

"Ah Zheng, you have to think about it. If you give him food, you won't be full. Brother Yao is kind. He didn't assign any tasks to us new members. We have to work every day in the future. You can't give him half of the food every day, right?"

Before Yao Sheng could say anything, Li Yu immediately jumped out to stop him.

"I didn't say I would give him half every day. Right now, he's here with me. I can't let him starve outside while I eat porridge inside."

Zhang Zheng explained.

He knows the importance.

Especially since he is a newcomer now, he cannot leave a possible impression that may be a burden to others from the beginning.

He could help in a different way in the future, for example, when distributing porridge at noon, he could give more to Yuan, or make it thicker.

Take care of it secretly.

"If you want to break up, do it cleanly. Don't contact each other again in the future to avoid trouble."

Li Yu suggested coldly.

He was fed up with that kid Wang Yuan and now he didn't want to even look at him anymore.

Really stubborn and annoying.

Trash don't deserve to be with them.

They became disciples of the Dahe Gang, and their future was destined to be different.

And Wang Yuan would only be a burden to them, or even a shame.
