Naruto Treasure Box System

Chapter 247
PS: Squatting at home with light makeup, I urge everyone to try not to go out in the near future.

Yuyi quickly stopped crying, and seeing Mizuzhi's eyes also mist, she suppressed tears and said: "Okay, come in."

As she said that, she quickly stuffed the cloth strips wrapped in the bread into her bosom and hid it.

Just now, she noticed a group of people coming from a distance.

"It's time to pay this month's rent, everyone is queuing up to pay the money!" The leader shouted ferociously with a long knife in his waist.

The people nearby dragged the children into their huts one after another. After a while, another person emerged from each hut, holding a bank note in his hand, standing tremblingly waiting at the door of his own house.

And that group of people came up to collect the money in an orderly manner.

"I'm from Naz's group." At this moment, there was a violent quarrel in a shed not far from the siblings.

"Huh? Natsu is finished! Area 97 is now under the control of our Sea God Gang."

"No, our family has no money. We just paid the rent yesterday."

There was a loud slap in the face of 'slap'.

Then came the cries of children and the begging of women.

At this time, Yuyi had already dragged his younger brother into his shed, and when he heard the movement outside, he quickly threw away a pile of debris in the corner, and stuffed the bread in his arms together with the cloth bag.

"No matter what happens for a while, don't be impulsive! Do you know?" After finishing all this, Yuyi instructed.

It seemed that she was already familiar with this situation.

"Understood." Shuizhi responded with some trepidation.

"No! Don't do this." At this moment, another woman's scream came from the next room.

"Please, please let my wife go!" followed by a man's voice.

'Bang' the sound of objects colliding came one after another.During the period, the woman from before screamed mournfully.

Yuyi hugged Shuizhi tightly, and the two hid in the room shivering.

What's going on outside?Of course she knows!
I am afraid that the 'big brother' in this area has changed again.

Originally, life in the slums was not easy, and one had to 'pay rent' on time.What if I can't hand it over?
They don't kill people lightly either.After all, population is also a resource for them.If they can't pay the rent, they will take away something of comparable value, including children and women.

In the midst of chaos, the slums have gradually formed their own set of rules.Although it is chaotic here, there are some rules.Generally, according to the shed area, it is divided into 108 districts.There are about 200 households in each district.

The shack where Youyi and the others live belongs to Area 97.The 'big brother' a few days ago was none other than a guy named Naz.

Ten days ago, it was a big sister named Li.

Yui couldn't remember how many big brothers and sisters had changed before.

That's right, the 'rent' here can never be paid.It is said that it is paid once a month, but in fact it is often half a month, or even a few days, and the "big brother" will be replaced.

The competition among the 'big brothers' is also extremely fierce.From time to time there will be fights.One side dies, and the victorious side takes over the other's jurisdiction.They don't care who you paid rent to before.When they come, you have to come up with something.

"The people inside come out!" Suddenly, there was a shout from the door.

Looks like it's their turn.

Yuyi told Shuizhi not to come out, then got up and walked out.

As she walked out of the shed, her trembling legs gradually stopped trembling, and her steps became steady.

It's not that she's not afraid, but that she knows that fear is useless at a time like this.On the contrary, it will make the opponent gain an inch.

"Noisy, noisy, what's the noise? Are you letting people sleep?" Before the man outside the door could speak, Youyi picked up something and threw it over.

That's the handle on the door.

The man who got hit on the spot was not annoyed, he looked at her jokingly and laughed: "Yo, isn't this sister Yuyi? Come on, your rent is waived by me."

From this appearance, it seems that this person is acquainted with Yuyi.

Seeing this, Yuyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.On the face, there was still an impatient dislike: "Cunjiang, that old Naz was killed by you?"

The man didn't answer, but looked at her with a bewildered expression and said, "Old rules, I'll come to you after I finish my business in a while."

After finishing speaking, the man hurried to the next house, and then there was another yell: "The people inside, get out!"

Youyi felt a little bitter.But there is no way.

This kind of thing happens from time to time, and I'm used to it.In this world, good people will be forced to become bastards.

It's fine for those who have nothing to worry about, but all the girls who are bound by relatives can only endure and suffer in the end.

Even if it's not for yourself, you have to live for that trace of bondage.

"No! I beg you. Give me another day!" At this moment, there was a sudden begging for mercy from the shed opposite.

Accompanied by the sound of fists and feet to the flesh, the voice of begging for mercy gradually weakened, and finally there was no more sound.

Yuyi knew that another life was lost.

Generally speaking, as long as you can take out some valuable things, rent collectors will not break into the house, let alone kill people easily.

But there are always exceptions.

The household opposite is an old woman.In the slums, children may be more tolerant, at most they just catch them back for fun.

But for the elderly who can't pay the rent, they don't pay so much attention.

Because for 'big brother', the old man is a burden.It is a worthless existence.

"Sister. On days like this, when will you be tall?" When Yuyi returned to the shed, Mizuzhi looked at her bitterly.

Of course he also heard the conversation outside just now.

He also knew what would happen next.Because things like this have happened many times.

But Youyi smiled and stroked his little head and said: "This time I'm very lucky, the people who collect the rent are the people from Cunjiang."

This is true for her, you know, last year, when a new big brother collected rent, more than a dozen people dragged her into the house, and Water City was seriously injured.She almost died.

The surrounding noises kept coming and going, but those who failed to pay the rent, the rent collectors who were considered "polite" at first, suddenly turned into robbers.Burning, killing and looting caused a scene of mournful mourning.

People who have lived here for a long time are used to it.

until
"Huh? Why is there no movement outside?" Shuizhi asked suddenly.

Every time the eldest brother is changed, the slums are inevitably noisy, and it often lasts for a whole day.But this time, it suddenly became quiet.

With some doubts, Yuyi opened the rag curtain and looked out.

All I saw was a group of uniform soldiers, putting sharp samurai swords on the necks of those people.Pressing people to gather towards an open space, the whole process was silent, and the surrounding area fell into a strange silence.
