I was put into the cell again.

Looking up at the roof, I saw that the two holes I dug had been repaired and reinforced. My dagger and slingshot were confiscated again, and handcuffs were placed on my hands. I could no longer escape.

Before I was imprisoned, John said to the governor: "One little barbarian left, and another one came." I felt a little panic in my heart. They were afraid that they were going to turn me into another little barbarian.

When the time comes, I will also go and perform the hunting of raw chickens in front of the distinguished guests of the Governor's Mansion to show the exotic customs of Australia! Thinking of this, I can't help but get goosebumps all over my body.

What happened next confirmed my suspicion. In the next three days, they didn't give me a piece of bread or a grain of rice. I was so hungry that I felt dizzy. I could only lie on the flat bed and exercise as little as possible to reduce my body weight.

The loss of heat.

In the past three days, Carl didn't come, and neither did Dolly. I think either the governor didn't allow them to tell me, or they didn't know at all.

I was lying in bed at night and heard a mouse squeaking on the ground. I saw a mouse running out to look for food.

I stood up and my eyes shone, and the mouse suddenly transformed into a delicious fat chicken in my eyes, fragrant and sizzling with oil, waiting for me to taste it.

I slowly got up, trying to approach slowly like a snake, and then launch a fatal blow, but I forgot that I was on the bed at this time, I pressed the air with my right hand, and with a plop, I fell off the bed.

I struggled to stand up, and now I felt much more awake.

I discovered that hunger can really change a person. If I had been able to catch that mouse just now, would I have put it in my mouth and gnawed it like Xiaoman did? It's very possible.

I was thinking, do I really want to be a monkey for people to visit?

Anne once said that when she was a teenager, she traveled to India and visited a zoo in Calcutta, India. She saw many animals that she had never seen before in the zoo, including an iron cage.

An animal was imprisoned. He was wearing the official uniform of the Qing Dynasty, with long braids and a shaggy beard. He kept shouting in half-broken English: "I want to see the Queen of the British Empire. I

Want to see the queen."

There is a sign hanging on the outside of the cage, which reads, "A Qing official, responsible for teaching the emperor's children, once led the Qing people to attack British and French soldiers, and was captured in Guangdong by the crew of the Yarrow."

Only then did Anne realize that inside the cage was an official from the Qing Empire. He was sitting upright and motionless in the cage. Many people threw pasta and ham into the cage. This man didn't even look at it. Many people criticized him: "

Eat it, pick it up quickly and eat it."

Here an army officer came to visit with an Indian girl on his arm. The girl leaned on the officer, talking and laughing. The officer pointed at the man in the cage and said: "Baby, have you seen this? This person is the one we captured from the Qing Dynasty."

When we arrived, he was a great general of the Qing Dynasty. When we captured him on the Yarrow, he said he wanted to see Her Majesty the Queen. How could we take him across the ocean to return to England, so we sent him to India when we arrived?

If you put it on display at the zoo, you can make the best use of it, attract more people, and sell more tickets. Haha." After that, he threw in a banana and said to the man: "Hey, monkeys from the Qing Dynasty, hurry up.

Eat."

The man in the cage was furious. He grabbed the railings of the cage and shouted: "Shi can not be killed, I am not a monkey!"

The onlookers were startled and stepped back. Then they burst out laughing again, "Look, this monkey is angry."

I later told my father about this incident. My father clenched his fists and had tears in his eyes. He told me that the man in the cage was named Ye. He was indeed an official of the Qing Empire. He was defeated and captured. At first, he was still

I thought I could meet the Queen of England and tell my story, but I didn't expect to be sent to a zoo in India. Later, I heard that Mr. Ye saw that he was imprisoned in the zoo for people to visit. He refused to eat or drink and died of a hunger strike.

.

My father told me: "Chinese people have always valued integrity. Mencius was a philosopher in ancient China. He once said that wealth cannot be fornicated, poverty cannot be moved, and force cannot be subdued. This is called a man. This is the integrity of the Chinese people.

, as a Chinese, you must remember at all times. Just as Mr. Ye said, a scholar can be killed but not humiliated."

I was afraid that my father would be angry, so I didn't dare to ask any more questions. In fact, I was still curious: "Can a person really starve himself to death if he can't bear the humiliation?"

Now I am facing the same situation as Mr. Ye. If I could see my father, I would definitely tell him: "It is easy to say that you will die on a hunger strike, but it is really difficult to do it. I haven't eaten for three days.

When I see a mouse, my eyes light up green."

My father once told me that when there was a famine in China, people would sometimes exchange their children for food. I couldn't understand at the time how a parent could exchange his children with others and then eat them. Now I finally believe it.

The problem of human nature is a problem of survival.

Hunger will amplify human nature and drive people to do things that are contrary to human nature.

I deeply felt the sadness of Xiaoman, and the sadness of those parents who exchanged their children for food. At this moment, I was gradually approaching them, and I thought, "If the guards pull me in front of those people now

, will I pounce on a live chicken like a little man? If I pounce on it, my father will be ashamed, and I will forever lose my dignity as a human being. No, I have to hold on for two more days."

The few guards who escorted Xiaoman at the beginning walked into the cell and said, "Xiaoman, come with us. We will have a live chicken for you in a while."

They really thought I was a bastard, and I couldn't help but get angry, "Fart! I'm a human, not a monkey. I don't eat live chickens, bring me cooked food."

The guard chuckled through the cell door, "You're just a fucking monkey, and you still want to eat cooked food. It would be nice to have a live chicken."

A guard locked the door, and I felt an impulse in my heart. I suddenly rushed over and wanted to break through the door.

The guards cursed: "You bastard, you still attack humans," and after saying that, they all hit me with sticks.

The cell door was very narrow, there were many guards, and my hands were handcuffed. In addition, I had not eaten or drank for three days and my steps were weak. It was already very strenuous to walk, let alone take steps in the mud.

In the end, I was kicked down by a guard, and several people struck me with sticks and sticks, beating me until my nose was bruised and my face was swollen.

They pushed me to the ground and put a collar around my neck that was exactly the same as Xiaoman's. They tore my clothes to pieces, and then put a grass skirt around my waist in a civilized manner.

A guard fastened the chain to the collar and led me outside.

I knew that struggling was useless, so I simply gave up my mind and stumbled out after them. The sun was very dazzling, and I unconsciously used my hands to block it. The guard thought I was going to resist, so he whipped me.

I grinned in pain, but I also knew that if I resisted again, I would get another severe beating.

The guards led me to the back garden, where a huge iron cage had been placed, and the guards pushed me out of the cage.

After a while, the governor, his wife, and John and his wife came out chatting and laughing, with Dolly and Carl looking at them from behind.

The guard reported, "Your Majesty the Governor, Your Majesty the Mayor, Xiaoman has been brought here."

The Governor nodded, and John laughed, "Put in a live chicken and see if this little beast is ready for training?"

A live chicken was thrown into the cage by the guard. When it saw me, it flew into the air, flapped its wings and flew around, making a loud noise that made me upset.

I grabbed it casually and broke the neck of the live chicken with a click.

John was overjoyed and said, "Eat, Xiaoman!" The guards also started drinking, "Eat, Xiaoman."

I was so angry that I threw the dead chicken aside and said coldly: "Sorry, I am neither a monkey nor an ignorant aborigine. You can't see the performance you want to see."

Only then did Carl recognize me. Her eyes widened with a surprised expression. She really couldn't believe that the little beast in the cage was actually me. Dolly even covered her mouth in shock.

I grabbed the railings of the cage, "Although I was in the cage, I saw a bunch of self-righteous monkeys. They regarded themselves as civilized people and trampled on the dignity of others unscrupulously. Carl, now you see it,

The brother you used to talk about is now naked, starved for three days and three nights, and forced to eat live chickens. I still have a trace of sanity. Maybe in a few days, I will really be like Xiaoman due to hunger.

Eat live chickens like that. There is an old saying in China, and I tell you now, a scholar cannot be killed but cannot be humiliated. You cannot train a Chinese into a monkey, and you should never dream of this."

After saying that, I turned around and used all my strength to hit the opposite cage railing.

The moment my head made contact with the railing, I seemed to feel the sound of my skull cracking. I was determined to die during this collision, so I didn't have any strength left at all.

I felt dizzy, and immediately became unconscious.

I was groggy and not very conscious.

I wanted to sit up, but felt a splitting headache. I touched my head and found that my head was wrapped in layers of gauze. My eyes could only see a glimmer of light outside through the gauze.

The body was very soft underneath, and it was obviously no longer the hard bed in the cell.

"Where am I?" I said groggily.

A familiar voice came over, "Son, are you awake?"

It was my father's voice. There was joy in his voice, and Anne's cry also reached my ears.

There was also Luna's voice, "He finally woke up." As he said that, a cold hand helped me lift the gauze from my eyes, and I found myself lying on a bed in a traditional Chinese medicine hospital.

Anne looked at me with tears in her eyes. She grabbed my hand and said, "Billy, how are you? Do you feel better?"

I smiled slightly and said, "Annie, don't worry, I'm not dead."

My father didn't speak, he just looked at me, but his eyes were already filled with tears. This usually strong man finally couldn't stop his tears.

I said to him: "Dad, I'm fine. You can comfort Annie and don't make her sad."

The father nodded and put his arm around Annie's shoulders. "Good son, just hope you're okay."

I looked at Luna's gorgeous and cold cheeks, and pretended to be relaxed and said: "Hi, Luna, do we meet again?"

Luna frowned, "What's going on? You hit your head against the wall and don't want to live anymore? You've been in a coma for three days. If you don't wake up, you'll become a vegetative state."

I remembered the situation before I fell into coma again, and I hit it with all my strength. Why didn't I die? Yes, I probably hadn't eaten for several days, and I had lost my strength, so I only had a small life left.

I smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if I become a vegetable. I don't want to become an animal." Thinking of the humiliation that day, my heart surged again, making me dizzy.

"Okay, stop thinking about it now and take good care of yourself. I won't talk until you are well, but shut up now." Luna showed the seriousness of a doctor, turned to her father and Anne and said, "Uncle and aunt, you go out first.

Let the bug have a good rest. It will be fine soon."

Silence returned to the room. I couldn't figure out how I got here and who rescued me from the Governor's Mansion. It was only those few people who knew that I was arrested, Piyou, Tomoko and Xiaobu, and later

Carl and Dolly.

Piyou is now a clay Buddha crossing the river, unable to protect himself, so naturally he can't help.

Tomoko isn't familiar with me, and she doesn't have that much energy. She might go to Mr. Tanaka for help, but I'm afraid Mr. Tanaka won't lend a helping hand.

As for Xiaobu, it's even more impossible. He wishes I could stay in the Governor's Mansion all his life.

Dolly is just a little maid, and she is definitely not qualified to speak.
