Chapter 7 Street Fighter
By chance, on the way home to help his mother collect raw materials, Liu Bei met Liu Hui, a child of the same clan who was being bullied by the bear children in the village.

Liu Bei recognized Liu Hui at that time, and knew that his father, Liu Bo Liu Yuanqi, was the No. [-] figure in the family. The family business was very well run, and the family property was quite rich. He was the only kind person who was willing to help Liu Bei and his mother occasionally.

At that time, Liu Bei was very hungry and was planning to avoid the trouble caused by Kai Lai, but after walking a few steps, he still sighed.

Take it as gratitude.

That day, Liu Bei stared at the bloodshot eyes, carried a stick and beat the four brats who were bullying Liu Hui with all his injuries, and rescued Liu Hui.

Liu Hui was thin and thin. He was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground and couldn't move. When he saw Liu Bei coming up to help him with a bruised nose and a swollen face, he fainted from fright and made Liu Bei depressed for a while.

Liu Bo was always thinking of Liu Hong's help to him back then, and now Liu Bei has saved his son from being bullied and beaten, for which he is very grateful to Liu Bei.

He settled the family who wanted to make trouble, and paid for Liu Bei to ask a doctor to treat his injuries. He also sent a lot of extra five baht and rice to Liu Bei's family, and even a few chickens and ducks. Eat some meat to nourish your body.

Liu Bo's gratitude helped Liu Bei and his mother improve their lives for a while, and made them feel full for a while.

During that meal, Liu Bei drank three bowls of grain in one go, and felt the long-lost feeling of "support".

It's been a long time since I ate chicken and drank chicken soup.

The simple chicken soup sprinkled with some salt does not have any spices to assist, but it is so fragrant, the fragrance is so deep in the heart, the fragrant Liu Bei burst into tears, as if the chicken soup he drank turned into tears.

This bowl of chicken soup completely soothed his heart.

Later, after Liu Bei recovered from his injury, the mother and son combined together and used the remaining property to slightly expand the business area, so the life of the mother and son no longer struggled above and below the food and clothing line, but could barely eat and clothe.

According to the mother's idea, the mother and son can get rid of hunger, run a small business well, have enough food and clothing, and save some money. When Liu Bei grows up, tell him about a marriage, and then he can pass on the family and comfort the ancestors.

But Liu Bei didn't think so.

Because from this experience, Liu Bei realized the benefits brought to him by force, as well as the pleasure of beating the enemy, and further thought.

He found that with his current background, he really couldn't get on the road to becoming famous all over the world, and he didn't have the capital.

However, there may be another way to go, which may be more in line with the current actual situation and has a higher success rate.

street fighter.

He felt that at the moment when he had nowhere to go, although becoming a street fighter was disgraceful, it might not be a way to make a living.

Youzhou is a border area of ​​the Han Dynasty. The Han people in Youzhou have lived with the Hu people since ancient times. It was okay when the Eastern Han Dynasty was strong. After the middle period of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Youzhou was often plundered by foreign Hu people and horse bandits, and the Han army could not save it.

In order to protect themselves and their families, the people of Youzhou naturally had to rise up and resist. After a long time, they became full of martial virtues, fought bravely, respected the strength of force, and followed the law of the jungle.

It can be said that the light of civilization from Luoyang cannot illuminate the land of Youzhou at all.

To put it bluntly, most people in Youzhou have a personality that burns books and confuses scholars. When things happen, they are indecisive.

The power of the government is huge, but there are always places that the government cannot control and is not willing to control.

It's like Liu Bei and his mother weaving mats and selling shoes on a street where there are always people coming to collect things like protection fees.

Even though he could only guarantee food and clothing, Liu Bei still felt bad about being taken away by these guys, but his mother always stopped him from fighting with these people, and would rather spend money to eliminate disasters than conflict with these people.

Originally, Liu Bei thought that what his mother said was right, that being kind to others is the way to survive, and he worked hard to carefully accumulate wealth, and maybe he could still eat his fill.

But after experiencing what happened to Liu Hui, Liu Bei realized that if he didn't show his courage and strength and let others know that he was strong in martial arts and not easy to mess with, he would always be regarded as a good bully by others.

Afterwards, Liu Bei realized his second epiphany on a thunderstorm night and decided to make a transformation.

He is no longer an honest business person, but has embarked on a path of courage and ruthlessness.

He began to practice force consciously. He made wooden knives and sticks for himself, and took time to practice every day.

After he grew a little taller and had a little more strength, he began to participate in some collective multiplayer sports on the street.

In the beginning, it was just a small fight, and Liu Bei, with his small body, could only wave the flag and shout after the other big shots to be a minion.

If the boss wins the fight, he will follow the minions to rush up and kick the fallen enemies. If the bosses are knocked down by others, he will follow the minions and run away, regardless of the boss. life and death.

The more dangerous it gets later on, because Liu Bei gradually grows taller and has an appearance, and he begins to become one of the main players who rushed up with the big guys for street multiplayer sports.

The number of times he was injured began to increase unabated. There were times when he beat someone, and there were also times when he was beaten.

Mother was very worried and often reprimanded him for this, but could not restrain him.

With relentless strength and a well-polished club, he quickly made a name for himself and caught the attention of some street people.

At the age of 11, Liu Bei successfully joined the gang on the street where he did business because of his bravery and ruthlessness. As the saying goes, if you can't beat it, then join.

After that, he continued to rely on his vigor to gather a group of local street sneakers who admired him in the gang, and soon gained status in the gang.

And because he was literate, educated, and eloquent, he was quickly appreciated by the boss of the gang, became the second in command of the gang, and began to handle some core business of the gang.

This change not only reduced all maintenance costs for the straw sandal shop, but also provided an additional income.

Liu Bei used this to expand his business scope, upgraded his straw sandal shop to a daily necessities shop, and began to operate a series of common people's daily necessities, which increased his income.

Since then, Liu Bei and his mother have entered a well-off life where they are full of food and can occasionally show off a morsel of meat.

The hunger no longer followed him like a shadow, no longer chasing him like a ghost. At that time, Liu Bei felt that his soul was detached.

Although his mother was dissatisfied with Liu Bei's behavior and worried about his safety, Liu Bei did not give up this hard-won "foundation".

"The child knows that the road is difficult, but apart from this, the child has no choice, and the child does not want to let the mother continue to suffer."

The mother could only shed tears after hearing this, and told Liu Bei to pay attention to his own safety.

Although she was very worried and was very unwilling to Liu Bei to do such a thing, the reality made it impossible for her to take care of Liu Bei as a child.

There is no man in the family anymore. In Youzhou, a hot land where everyone mingles with each other every day, Liu Bei has to go out and fight as a man to support his appearance. He cannot escape.

Even though he wasn't even 12 years old at the time.

Maybe it's because of his natural vigor, anyway, Liu Bei's courage is getting bigger and bigger, and his hands are getting more and more fierce, and he can use the contents of the art of war in group sports without a teacher.

He especially likes to lead a team to engage in sneak attacks, and to play thieves with one hand.

Under his leadership, his gang has also developed better and better. More and more street sneakers heard about his reputation, worshiped him, and wanted to follow him, watching the road of Street Fighter become smoother and smoother.

However, when Liu Bei was 14 years old, the leader of the gang was set up by a hostile gang to do it.

When everyone was panicking, Liu Bei did not panic.

He stepped forward and led more than a dozen street sneakers in the gang who admired him to sneak into the other party's lair at night, retaliated with an eye for an eye, and killed all the leaders of the other party who were drinking and eating meat to celebrate.

He himself didn't realize that he had become so fierce.
