Xu Qing got up immediately, raised her arm and sniffed herself. Nobody knew what she smelled.
"May I ask why you said that?"
"Fragrance."
"Fragrance?" Xu Qing was stunned for a moment, then she realized that she must have stained it in Wang Zijun's car.
"No, no, I don't go to that kind of place. I'm a good citizen and I don't do illegal things."
"You don't go?"
"No, I'm afraid of being caught. When the old man goes to pick her up, his brass belt will be useful again."
Xu Qing breathed out the smell of alcohol and slowly lay down again. He half-closed his eyes and wanted to rub the wax gourd a few more times. The wax gourd thought that he was smelly and took the opportunity to turn around and jump away.
"It's also very dirty. What's there to go? I might as well watch a movie at home … Bah, I don't go anyway … What are you thinking in that little head of yours?
"Oh."
Jiang He seemed to relax a little, "Actually … it's normal to go to the brothel. A talented and knowledgeable young man like you will be very popular."
"Me? Young man? Talented? "Xu Qing almost laughed out loud," Go on, praise me more. "
"…"
"Elegant and talented, handsome and elegant …" Seeing that Jiang He didn't speak, he shamelessly lied on the sofa and praised himself, "Such a handsome man who is even more handsome than Pan … Pan An, was caught visiting a brothel, squatting on the ground with his hands on his head in disheveled clothes. If he was caught by a rat, it would be even more fun. This is called social death — you are a bad person."
"How … how am I bad?" Jiang He didn't understand what he was muttering.
"You encouraged me to go to the brothel."
"I didn't. I just said … it's normal. You don't have to go there secretly."
"I didn't!"
Xu Qing covered her forehead with one hand, "And it's not normal. It's illegal. I have so much free time that I need to hire the police."
"Illegal? I'll be arrested by the police? "Jiang He was a little stunned.
"Yes, it's illegal. There's no such thing as a brothel now. Selling one's body is not allowed, so you don't have to worry about me selling you when I run out of money."
"…"
Jiang He refreshed his understanding once again. There were many rules in this world.
"So why did I say it was dangerous outside? For example, climbing on the wall in the middle of the night, carrying a sword, fighting back when you see a police officer, eating and dashing on credit … There are too many. "
Xu Qing squinted at the light, shook his head dizzily, and turned to look at her. "Fortunately, you met me."
If he hadn't met him, Jiang He might have had other opportunities. He might have met a rich second generation or something, but it was more of an accident.
There was food, water, learning to live, and slowly stabilizing — looking at the current situation, this was already the top level of luck.
"You're a good person."
"No, I'm not a good person."
"You are."
"I'm not."
"…"
"If you say that I'm a good person, I'll treat you like a housewarming girl and let you know the dangers of society!"
Xu Qing got up from the sofa and said fiercely. He turned to the kitchen to look for the food that Jiang He had left for him.
It was good to have someone leave food for him when he came back.
Even if he wasn't hungry, he had to eat some. Otherwise, what if he didn't leave food for him next time?
"I don't want to be a housewarming girl!" Jiang He shouted from behind.
"Then don't say that you're a good person in the future. I hate this word." Xu Qing came out with a bowl. "And benefactor, I don't like it either. Otherwise, I'll …"
Before he could finish, he suddenly remembered that he couldn't fight back, so he could only lower his head and eat.
"Are those brothels and casinos illegal?"
"Yes, they're not allowed to exist. They can do it secretly, but if they're found out, they'll be arrested, criticized and educated, or put in jail."
Xu Qing glanced at her. "Including selling yourself, being a slave … they're all not allowed. Selling yourself to bury your father in the past doesn't exist."
"Why?" Jiang He's little head was filled with doubt. "If someone is at a dead end and both parties are willing …"
"It's not allowed even if both parties are willing. This is to protect you and ordinary people like me."
"What does it have to do with me?" Jiang He's face turned red. "I'm not selling … selling … I don't know how to!"
"If you know, tell me first."
Xu Qing was amused. He held the bowl and ate two mouthfuls of rice. Then he raised his head and thought for a while. "Do you know something called an elephant? Its ivory is very valuable, and many people like it very much. However, it's forbidden to buy or sell it, even if it's picked up. Do you know why? "
"I don't know. What does it have to do with me?" Jiang He was depressed. She was still thinking about what happened just now. "I don't know how to catch an elephant and sell it."
If she had to choose between selling herself or selling an elephant, she might learn to catch an elephant.
"Because when there aren't enough dead ones to pick up, someone will kill the living ones and sell them — as long as someone likes it, someone will secretly hunt an elephant, kill it, and sell it 'legally'."
"And then?"
"This is human nature. You think you're willing to sell the ivory you picked up, but there are more people who can't find ivory. They will secretly create dead elephants and claim that they picked them up — elephants are weak, and ordinary people are also weak."
"The freedom of the strong is the hell of the weak. There must be a rule here. Otherwise, they will have countless ways to make you 'willingly' go to a brothel, become a slave, sell your body … oh, sell your kidney, sell your lungs, sell your liver. In short, there are all kinds of rich people. They only need to pay, and there will be countless poachers to help them make you into a legal trading object."
Jiang He's eyes widened, and her lips moved twice. "Sell … sell my kidney? And my lungs? "
"It's scary, isn't it?" Xu Qing raised his eyebrows.
"How can there be such … such a heartless thing?"
"It's okay. Although there are those who have their kidneys stolen, and some are tricked into selling one … it's still better than having no restrictions. You should be glad."
Xu Qing lowered his head and ate two more mouthfuls of rice. He was enjoying it very much. "And in your time, I remember there were people who ate children to live longer. No one cared. That's heartless. It's too scary."
"I … I've never heard of it."
"You can go and hear about it now. It happened hundreds or thousands of years ago. Isn't there a Baidu?" Xu Qing found it funny to see her frightened look. "So remember, don't drink water from people you don't know, and don't eat food from people you don't know. Stay vigilant."
In the past, he also felt that if people sold it, then so be it. There was no need to care about them. Later, when he became a video uploader, he was restricted in various ways and cursed those regulations.
However, when he calmed down and thought about it, it was easy to understand — human nature really couldn't stand up to the test. Perhaps he felt that he was just making a video obediently, and it was too much to cut a harmonious scene occasionally. But if he didn't do that, there would be countless people selling their bodies based on this point, and a good platform would be polluted. Even prostitutes would change careers to get a share of the profits.
Humans.
"So scary …"
Jiang He, who was on Baidu, exclaimed and looked at Xu Qing with some lingering fear.
Fortunately, he didn't dig out his heart and liver to sell.
