Chapter 26 Chapter 1 Money Can Reach Heaven, Money Can Make Ghosts

In the wild boar forest, how many heroes died here, how many heroes lost their souls here, and how many wronged lives became lonely ghosts. Lu, Dong, and Xue left the hotel and parted ways. Dong and Xue handed over their conscience to Lu Qian and sent the gold back home. They took the package, took the water and fire sticks, and detained Lin Chong on the road. The first day was not bad, because I came out late and it was getting late after walking more than 30 miles, so I rested in the inn overnight. In the next three or two days, the weather was extremely hot, and Lin Chong's stick injury recurred. He couldn't walk step by step on the road.Staying at an inn in the village at night, Lin Chong didn't wait for the gentleman to speak, he hurried to get some silver taels from the parcel, begged the waiter to buy wine and meat, arranged a plate of food, and invited the two gentlemen to sit down and eat.

You must know that the two people he invited were the ones who tortured him along the way and didn't treat him as a human being!Jin Shengtan commented on this sentence: Poor.It's very poor.However, why is an upright man always so humble?Isn't it annoying to always be so low-spirited?Doesn't it also make people feel "sorrowful for their misfortune, angry for their incompetence"? When Wu Song sent Mengzhou off after killing his sister-in-law, he was also sent off by two gentlemen. Wu Song also said, "There are gold and silver in the bag, but when I go to the village shop, I buy wine and meat, and eat with his two gentlemen." However, there is a prerequisite for this, and the premise is: "Those two gentlemen know that Wu Song is a good man, and they just serve him carefully all the way, and dare not take him lightly." The two gentlemen of Wu Song are respectful , have sympathy, know to respect a hero like Wu Song, and sympathize with Wu Song's experience, so Wu Song treats them like this.

As for Lin Chong, he suffered worse than Wu Song, but these two gentlemen had no sympathy, no sense of right and wrong, tortured him, humiliated him along the way, and did not treat him as a human being.For such a treacherous villain, Lin Chong also flattered him, which is not depressing! He is so humble and obedient, trying to please, what did he ask for? Dong and Xue winked, added some wine, made Lin Chong drunk, then tricked Lin to wash his feet, fetched boiling water, pressed Lin Chong's feet in the boiling water basin, and scalded Lin Chong's feet.Taking advantage of Lin Chong's inattention, he threw away his old straw sandals.

The next morning, Lin Chong's feet were covered with blisters, but he couldn't find his shoes.Dong Chao pretended to be merciful and gave him a new pair of hemp straw sandals.The new straw sandals rubbed his feet, and within three or two miles Lin Chong walked, the blisters on his feet were worn away by the new straw sandals, dripping with blood, unable to walk, and screaming endlessly. Xue Ba scolded: "Go, go! If you don't go, you will get up with a big stick!" Very vicious. Dong Chao pretended to come to help Lin Chong again, and then walked four or five miles, but he really couldn't walk anymore.But I saw smoke and fog in front of me, and a fierce and vicious forest - the famous wild boar forest has arrived.

The two gentlemen pretended to take a rest and sleep before leaving.Just fell asleep, but jumped up again, saying that he was afraid that Lin Chong would take them to sleep and run away. Lin Chong said: "The villain is a good man. Now that the lawsuit has been settled, he will not leave for the rest of his life." Xue Ba said: "Where can you believe it? If we want our hearts to be stable, we must be tied up." Lin Chong said: "If you want to tie up and down, you can tie them up. How can a villain dare to say?" This is completely a slave's voice, a completely flattering voice, with no backbone!

His premise is still: I am a criminal, you are officials of the police, and you have the power to control me, so I have no objection to what you do to me, and I am willing, without complaint! You see, it is still a typical Stockholm Syndrome! Of course, he also has to try his best to be as humble, as humble as possible, and as flattering as possible, in exchange for a little bit of tolerance, sympathy, and pity from them, so that his suffering can be alleviated. However, as we have seen, the more spineless and begging Lin Chong is, the more Lin Chong is looked down upon by the other party, and the more severely insulted and hurt by the other party!What he got in return was that these two treacherous villains had nothing to worry about and abused him day by day until he was dying of abuse and had no strength to resist.

Xue Ba untied the rope from his waist, and tied Lin Chong to the tree tightly including his hands, feet and shackles. ——The rope is already ready. You see, the two villains have completely subdued Lin Chong almost without any tricks! And how careless Lin Chong was! Just being careless, it's okay, how inferior and flattering is he?
