"Never mind."
The old man told the cruel truth to the trembling applicants in a very calm tone.
Xing Mo originally thought that there would be a few high-tempered people who would not be able to stand the old man's indifference and neglect, and would throw his sleeves away on the spot.
"No... I'm very sorry, it's our fault, Mr. Dao, please don't drive us away if you have a lot of people!"
Unexpectedly, those people were not angry, they just huddled together for warmth with humble red eyes, and one of the women who was still holding a child even choked up and cried.
"Is it useful?... Heh, what is the use of you? The recruit here is a killer! Not an old lady who cleans! You people really caught a place with food and slaughtered it as a welfare institution!"
Dao Lao sneered a few times at first, and then reprimanded those people whose skin was frozen and purple with a disgusted face.
But surprisingly, in the face of such contemptuous insults, no one refused to refute, but all lowered their heads in guilt.
This...is not quite right...
Xing Mo frowned, rubbing his smooth chin, something flashed in his head.
People are rampant and do what they want, the royal family is extremely arrogant and arrogant, and the common people have no clothes to cover their bodies and food to eat...
Something seems to be wrong...
Xing Mo shook his head, trying to clear his mind.
"My lord, you don't need to care about these poor beggars, let's go in first."
Seeing that Xing Mo had been standing still, Dao Lao only thought that she felt compassion for her, so he explained on the way to the main hall.
"As usual, those who come to sign up here are those who really want to become killers with great effort, but now these... tsk tsk"
Master Dao clicked his tongue while shaking his gray head uncomfortably.
Suddenly, with a flash of inspiration, Xing Mo grasped the point, "What's wrong with these now?"
"Now this world...doesn't tolerate kindness at all..." Dao Lao looked at the large and small figures that had already turned into black spots in the distance and let out a faint sigh.
"My lord, you may not be born often, so you don't know. Those people were just ordinary farmers. Now because they can't pay taxes, their land has been confiscated. They have nowhere to live and can only wander around."
Why can't I afford to eat? Shouldn't the background of the plot be the prosperity of the Taiping Dynasty?
Dao Lao sighed, and said again: "In the beginning, about two years ago, there were very few such refugees, and occasionally when they had nothing to eat, they would touch here to have a few mouthfuls of porridge in the name of signing up.
Because this will not cause much loss in food stocks, we usually just turn a blind eye and close our eyes to let this matter go, but two months ago, the number of refugees suddenly skyrocketed.
There are only one or two people who make a living, we can make big things into small things and forget it, but in the current situation, if I don’t refuse more and more refugees to come to fish in troubled waters, but let them with good intentions Sitting and eating, the main killer of our killer is waiting to starve to death because of lack of food. "
Dao Lao couldn't bear to put down his clenched fists. Although he is a killer who regards human life as nothing, his heart is still strong. When facing a trembling child who is about the same age as his own, he wants to tell the truth. It's impossible to not be soft-hearted at all.
It's just that he knew better that even if he just handed over a piece of dry steamed bun, the hungry people would lose their minds and rush forward to fight face-to-face.
