Qin Guan asked Fu Zhiyao to stand in place, he walked in front of Pan Qing, who had lost his head, and said to Pan Qing with the fear in his heart: "You are an official, your ideas will always look for a reasonable solution within the system, but officials are just ordinary people, you don't have immortal magic, no matter what method you use, these rice will not be able to save the hungry people." ”

Qin Guan did not try to answer this question like Fu Zhiyao, but directly vetoed the possibility, Pan Qing is indeed a Qing official, but a Qing official is also an official, as long as he is still an official, he cannot escape the constraints of the system.

Pan Qing didn't move after hearing Qin Guan's words, he stood in place, the rice grains in his palm gradually clenched, Pan Qing seemed to be very hesitant at this time, he was thinking carefully about what Qin Guan said, and the true meaning of these words.

All the hungry people on the execution ground disappeared, and Pan easily opened the rice grains in his hand, and after these rice grains fell to the ground, they gathered together and covered the human head with black cloth again.

The green-faced ghost stuck the ghost head knife in his hand on the ground, he grabbed the handle of the knife tightly with both hands, and looked at the position where the four people were standing with vicious eyes, as if the blue-faced ghost would raise the knife and kill the four people in the next second.

Pan Qing's voice came from the black cloth, but compared to before, it was more desperate, and his voice trembled slightly, "If I am not a clean official, will I be able to save these hungry people?" ”

"Before I answer your question, I would like to ask you, what is the reputation you are seeking? Is it for the people, loved by the people, or do you want to be a loyal minister? Qin Guan clenched his right hand into a fist and straightened it up to the sky, "Your answer will determine your future actions, there are some things that only heroes can do." Heroes can break conventions, be fearless of hardships, be able to let go of comfort, and move forward against the wind and waves, while cowards cannot. ”

"Pan Qing you are a clean official, but you are also a coward, in peacetime, cowards can get everything they want by following the rules, but not in times of famine, so you were abandoned by corrupt officials, but became a typical example of petty officials and huge greed, you can blame the world for being bad, but you can't deny the fact that you are a coward."

When Qin Guan said this, Shao Bochao felt that something was wrong, because Qin Guan didn't seem to be solving Pan Qing's problem, his remarks were more like saying to himself, so Shao Bochao asked Fu Zhiyao about Qin Guan, and Fu Zhiyao hesitated for a while and then told the truth about his encounter with Qin Guan.

When Fu Zhiyao heard Qin Guan say these words, she already had a general idea in her heart, she knew that Qin Guan must have been oppressed, so she had no choice but to choose the path of robbery. Faced with Pan Qing's experience, Qin Guan felt the same way, so he made such a remark.

Pan Qing gave his own answer, and he refuted Qin Guan's evaluation, "You ask me what the reputation I want? I want the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and I became an official because I can do what I want to do, and that's it. I can tell you in no uncertain terms that I am not a coward, that you can tell me what you think, that I will not take a step back, whether I succeed or not, that all I lack is a path of hope. ”

Qin Guan looked at the execution ground with both eyes, he did not open his mouth to answer Pan Qing, but closed his eyes, and a tear flowed out of his eye socket and down his cheek to the corner of his mouth. The eyes of the three of them were focused on him, and no one interrupted him soundly, and it wasn't until a minute later that Qin Guan slowly opened his eyes.

"Pan Qing, haven't you really seen the way you want? Listen to what these hungry people are saying? Can't you hear them? You say that you are dedicated to the people, can't you even walk around them? Now, you go back to the execution ground, and you go and listen to what they are saying? Qin Guan roared at Pan lightly, that's right, he roared at Pan lightly, who was already a ghost.

Qin Guan's words made Pan Qing deafening.

"It seems that you are only superficially clean." Qin Guan shook his head, and then he did something that shocked the three people behind him, he actually picked up Pan Qing's head and walked towards the execution ground.

In the face of Qin Guan's behavior, Pan Qing's headless body honestly followed behind Qin Guan. Qin Guan walked all the way to the hungry people, and then brought Pan Qing's head to the height of the hungry people's heads, and the weak voice of the hungry people came into Pan Qing's ears.

"I'm hungry."

"I don't have any bark to eat."

"The children are still young, they will definitely not survive if we die, and someone exchanged children with us just now."

"I saw that there was still surplus food in Master Yan's house, enough for a thousand people to eat for a month, why didn't you take it out to help us?"

"Not only the Yan family, but also a few local families have surplus food, but people don't want to, what can we do? They have a nursery, and we can't fight them. ”

"We can steal."

"Last time, a mother and son went to beg for food, and their legs were broken, and you went to steal it, I'm afraid that you will be killed directly."

The hungry people's words kept coming into Pan Qing's ears, Pan Qing listened silently, because of the black cloth, so Qin Guan couldn't see Pan Qing's expression at this time, but his hand felt a moist and hot liquid flowing down, Qin Guan looked down and found that what flowed from the black cloth was bright red blood.

Qin Guan lifted the black cloth, and he saw that Pan Qing's eyes were flowing with blood and tears, and only the whites of his eyes were left, and he couldn't see at all. At the same time, Qin Guan also saw the dense scars on Pan Qing's face, the flesh on his face seemed to have been cut by a knife, and his whole face was no longer human.

The moment he saw this face, Qin Guan was shocked in his heart.

With Pan Qing's ability, it is not easy to be a clean official, but instead of being praised by those who understand, those who strive to follow the right path are smeared by those who do not understand, which can be described as two unflattering.

"These businessmen have never committed any crimes, everything they have done is in accordance with the regulations, they are not willing to give out food, and the government has nothing to do." Pan retorted.

"So you watch the hungry starve to death." Qin Guan said coldly.

"Are you trying to make me rebel?" Pan asked with a shudder.

"It's not that I want you to rebel, it's your own choice, if you have to save these hungry people, this is the only way you can go." Qin Guan's gaze swept over the hungry people, "Meek people are always bullied, honest people are always deceived, how can this world ever treat them well?" Everything is a lie, and the purpose is only to smooth the fighting spirit of mankind. ”

"Humans are not beasts, but this does not mean that humans do not have bestiality, and when death comes, people can do anything to survive, what is rebellion?" When Qin Guan said this, he threw Pan Qing's head between the hungry people, and then he continued to say to Pan Qing: "Even if you give them your corpse to eat, it won't fill the stomachs of a few hungry people. Pan Qing, if you can't understand that all the principles and laws are set by people, then your only result is to wait for death in silence! ”

"So, let's start with you." Pan Qing, who was standing behind Qin Guan, moved lightly, he pushed Qin Guan to the ground, and then took the ghost head knife in front of the blue-faced ghost at a very fast speed and slashed at Qin Guan, Pan Qing's movements were very fast, so fast that people could almost not react, Qin Guan turned around, he couldn't do more to respond.

Qin Guan's gaze stared directly at the ghost head knife that was slashing at him, and there was no hint of flinching in his eyes. The ghost head knife stopped when it was only half a centimeter away from Qin Guan's head, and Pan Qing did not behead Qin Guan.

"You're not afraid of death?" Pan Qing's head was held out by a hungry man, and he was asking Qin Guan.

Qin Guan looked away, and he said softly, "If you are afraid of death, you won't die?" Or will you die if you are not afraid of death? I'm afraid of death, but I think that sometimes, there are things that must be done, otherwise I won't be able to hold my head up for the rest of my life, and I will continue to fall into someone I don't even know. ”

Pan Qing withdrew the ghost head knife in his hand, he stretched out his hand to pull Qin Guan in front of him, and then handed the ghost head knife in his hand to Qin Guan's hand, and after Qin Guan grabbed the ghost head knife, Pan Qing said to Qin Guan: "The wedding between the headless general and the white-clothed mother-in-law is not for celebration, there are so many grievances between them that it is impossible to solve them, but any grievances will end, so they use this opportunity to settle the grievances between the two parties." ”

"You have this ghost head knife in your hands, if you want to get out of the ghost town alive, it will definitely work for you. Thank you for answering the doubts in my heart, if you still want to know more about the headless general and the white-clothed mother-in-law, you can go to the faceless woman, just help her deliver the baby, she will help you, remember to take this black cloth with you. ”

"I'll tell you one more thing you don't know, fortunately you came to this execution ground with the ghost head knife, there is another execution ground on the other side of the vegetable market, once you hand over the ghost head knife to the executioner at that execution ground, all four of you will die." Pan let go of his hand after finishing speaking.

At this moment, Qin Guan froze in place, because he found that Pan Qing already knew that he was a living person, but Pan Qing did not attack them.

Qin Guan returned to the three of them with the ghost head knife, Fu Zhiyao and the others hurriedly stepped forward to ask, and Qin Guan also told the three of them what had just happened.

……

As soon as Qian Cang retracted his gaze, he turned his head to look out the window, according to the analysis of the film critics behind, the reason why Qin Guan was so touched here was because he was facing a similar situation to Pan Qing before robbing Fu Zhiyao, Qin Guan did not intend to wait for the arrival of death silently, he planned to resist, what was the result of the resistance, "Luck" did not give a result, but it can be seen from the arrangement of the plot that the film's attitude towards Qin Guan is biased towards support.

"It's serious!" Qian Cangyi crossed his hands and ten fingers behind his head, his legs were forced, and he stretched his waist, "Then again, will the ghost head knife that Qin Guan took really exist in the ghost town, and if I will enter the real ghost town, can I get it?" Qian Cangyi rubbed his eyes and continued to look down.

……

After the plot of the true and false execution grounds, Fu Zhiyao and the four will go to find the location of the faceless woman.

On the way, Shao Bochao asked Qin Guan about the robbery, he thought that Qin Guan should not hide it from him, after all, it was not a trivial matter like eating a few bowls of rice last night, if Qin Guan would rob when he was cornered, would he also use people as a shield when he encountered danger in the ghost town? Because this matter is related to his own life, Shao Bochao decided to have a showdown.

Qin Guan and Shao Bochao quarreled over this matter, and Fu Zhiyao and Shu Rou grabbed the two.

"Shao Bochao, I don't care about the robbery, now we need to work together to escape from the ghost town, and we shouldn't waste our energy on these inconsequential things." Fu Zhiyao said to Shao Bochao, although Fu Zhiyao's words seemed to be on Qin Guan's side, in fact, she was not on anyone's side.

"Qin Guan has never done anything wrong to us along the way, and Fu Zhiyao has already said that the purpose of Qin Guan's robbery is only two hundred yuan, not all the money, I think he must have his own hardships, I believe Qin Guan is not a bad person." Shu Rou also persuaded Shao Bochao.

Qin Guan opened his mouth at this time and asked Fu Zhiyao why he wanted to say this, "Won't you wait until everyone leaves this ghost place?" Qin Guan was quite angry.

The group of four came to the edge of splitting in an instant, seeing that the situation was becoming more and more uncontrollable, Shu Rou's eyes became more and more frightened, she no longer persuaded her, but covered her ears and ran to the corner to hide. Shu Rou hid in the corner, unwilling to participate in this matter anymore.

"It's my fault, but your expression at the time, if I didn't explain it to them, would have been more serious." After Fu Zhiyao replied to Qin Guan, he hurriedly ran over to comfort Shu Rou.

"I'm sorry." Shao Bochao whispered, he took a few deep breaths, and continued to say to Qin Guan: "I don't know what trouble you've encountered, but judging by your expression, the trouble must be very serious." If it's a matter of money, I still have a little savings, and when I get out, I'll lend it to you without charging you interest. ”

"I hope you don't blame Fu Zhiyao, she is also for everyone's good. I'm angry because I don't want to be deceived, and if it weren't for my life, I wouldn't have asked you at all. Shao Bochao believes that the cause of the quarrel is himself.

"No, I'm also at fault, I'm afraid that you guys will be biased against me if you know about this, so I deliberately kept it a secret." Qin Guan sighed.

"You're doing the right thing." Shao Bochao did not continue after saying this.

The Faceling lives in a slightly dilapidated room with a closed door and a small window that opens when she knocks on the door with a white hand that opens when a black cloth is placed on it.

The four of them entered the Faceless Woman's house, and they saw the Faceless Woman inside, a fair-skinned female ghost lying on the bed with a big belly, her face had no facial features, but she could see the skin on her face moving, and seemed to be able to frown and smile, but it was too abstract.

……

When Qian Cangyi continued to watch the information he had compiled, in another hotel in Yuanlin Town, Wang Qingfen, the director of "Luck 2", was showering in the bathroom, she looked at herself in the mirror, because of her age, her figure was no longer as slim as before, and the proud twin peaks on her chest were also a little sagging.

The sound of the window in the room being opened, Wang Qingfen's left earlobe moved, she sensed that something was wrong, so she turned off the shower head, put on a bath towel and walked out of the bathroom.

"Who!" Wang Qingfen shouted loudly, if it was a thief, she hoped that the other party would leave as soon as possible, she didn't want to deal with the thief.

There was no reply.

Wang Qingfen walked out of the bathroom, turned the corner and found that there seemed to be a person lying in the quilt, but this person's head was not exposed, seeing this scene, Wang Qingfen hurriedly retreated, she retreated to the door, and after that, she opened the door.

Although running in the hallway wrapped in a bath towel affected her image, she didn't care about it now.

Wang Qingfen turned around and ran out of the door, as soon as she stepped out of the door, her footsteps stopped, because there was a snake waiting for her in the corridor outside the door, this snake had a thick body and a human face, and the image was exactly the same as the owner of the ghost town in "Luck".

Without waiting for Wang Qingfen to shout, the human snake directly drilled into Wang Qingfen's mouth, and the whole snake actually got into it like this, and after the human snake disappeared, Wang Qingfen knelt on the ground.

A few seconds later, Wang Qingfen stood up from the ground, as if nothing had happened just now. Wang Qingfen returned to her room and continued to shower, but in the mirror, two small red dots appeared in the corners of her eyes that were not easy to find, and even if these two small red dots were discovered, they would not arouse suspicion.
