Chapter 978 You definitely have a grudge
"Why are you here?" Xiao Peng saw the two of them were confused: "Old man, is your foot better?"
The old man moved his ankle. "See, the medicine you gave me is really effective! Now I can walk slowly and I don't feel anything at all. According to my experience, this kind of sprain usually takes at least a month to develop to this point."
Xiao Peng thought to himself that how could the active oil be so effective? It was obviously because your physical fitness was really amazing.
"Mohand, why are you here?" Xiao Peng asked himself again.
Mohand laughed and said, "I am from the Nolida tribe. Oh, this Abdullah is the chief of the Nolida tribe, and my father!"
Xiao Peng's face was filled with black lines. No wonder you asked me to come to the Nolida tribe. Here, your family has the final say!
But he became alert again: "Why did you ask me to come here? Are you going to find me a wife again?"
No, you must watch your crotch, otherwise it will not be worth it if you accidentally contribute it here!
Mohand said slowly: "I heard from Zayed that those people who came to make trouble here are your friends? If they are your friends, I can ask Zayed and others to let them go!"
Zayed is an officer of the garrison here, and it was he who helped Xiao Peng with the supplies.
After hearing this, Xiao Peng shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, no, they are not my friends, I will deal with them as I see fit!"
"Ah?" Mohand was stunned after hearing this. Why did this seem different from what he heard?
Xiao Peng said seriously, "Although I've met them once, they're not my friends. And even if they were, you still have to beat them up!"
"Ah?" Mohande felt that his mind was a little confused.
Xiao Peng asked, "Is there a problem? We have to abide by the laws of the place we go. If a Malian refugee from your area insults your women, would you let him go? Or would you send him back to Mali and let the police there deal with him?"
Mohand shook his head: "Of course not!"
After hearing this, Xiao Peng said seriously, "Plus, what they did was extremely excessive. They completely disregard your beliefs! Beat them! Beat them to death!"
Mohan Deguang nodded, and after a while he said, "Xiao, tell me the truth, do you have a grudge against them?"
Xiao Peng said sternly, "What do you mean by 'having a grudge'? Could a person like me, with such great love, do such a thing as using a knife to kill someone? They deserve to be whipped for what they did! Just like I said, we Chinese are your good friends. Can we mess around at our good friend's house? If someone says they are your good friend, but ends up going to your house, bullying your children, molesting your wife, and taking your things, can you still regard them as a good friend? I'm not the kind of person who likes to sow discord, but what they did was really too much, and they deserve to be whipped! I don't know how you deal with people like this. If it were me, I would just bury them alive! Speaking of which, you are really kind to only give them six lashes. Your God will bless you kind people!"
Mohand and Abdul were bewildered. What the hell was going on? How could they bully my child and molest my wife? It wasn't that serious! Besides, these were foreigners, after all. How could they whip them to death? So how could they have been caned six times instead of three?
Xiao Peng continued to talk, "Actually, I can understand you. You Mauritania are actually quite similar to us China in some ways. You are also a country that has been harmed by invaders for a long time. You are even worse off. From the North African Berbers moving south, to the Portuguese invasion, to the Spanish coming in to share a piece of the pie, to the Dutch replacing them, and finally the French driving the Dutch out... When have these outsiders ever considered your feelings? By now, hurting you has become a habit! They are used to being arrogant on your territory! That's why such things that disrespect your beliefs happen! We Chinese have a saying: A kind horse is ridden by others, and a kind person is bullied by dogs. It means that you are too kind and will be bullied by jackals..."
"He must be whipped six times!" Abdul couldn't stand it anymore and his beard twitched with anger.
Being bullied by jackals? They couldn't stand such an insult!
Regardless of whether Xiao Peng really had a grudge against those people, what he said made sense: "You come to our territory and don't follow our rules. What do you think of us?"
Damn it!
Mohand invited Xiao Peng to their family dinner to thank him for helping his father Abdul. He also invited him to watch them carry out flogging: the criminal law here is carried out in public to serve as a deterrent!
They didn't expect Xiao Peng to go. After all, what's so fun about watching someone get whipped?
As a result, Xiao Peng didn't even think about it and directly agreed that he would go!
Well, now it’s confirmed that Xiao Peng does have a grudge against them.
After the two of them left, Renault and others hurried over: "Sir, what did they say to you?"
Xiao Peng said, "Nothing. They're just going to flogging us and asked if we wanted to go and watch. Alas, I just spoke up for them, but it was no use. What they did this time has deeply hurt the feelings of the people here and has caused public outrage! I tried to persuade them, and in the end they said they would let them go after just six lashes. According to their plan, they were going to keep them in prison for several years! If we're locked up here, it's even questionable whether we can get back alive."
After hearing this, Renault sighed and said, "Commander, you are such a good man. You said you wouldn't help them just now, but in fact you still lent a hand."
Xiao Peng suppressed his inner smile, waved his hands, and sighed, "That's all I can do to help you!"
See how important it is to master a foreign language? I screwed those guys right in front of you, and you still want to thank me...
Melanie's eyes widened as she asked, "How could they do this? They didn't go through a court ruling and this is a death sentence! This is the behavior of barbarians!"
Xiao Peng shook his head and said, "Melanie, the world is big, not every place is what you call a 'civilized society.' Africa has many tribal societies, and everything is decided by the tribes themselves. I'm not trying to scare you, but even here, if you get killed and fed to vultures, no one will find you. If you don't have the ability to overturn the local rules, just abide by them! It's fine for you to say this here, but if you say the same thing outside? Then stay away from me! I don't want your blood to splatter on me when you die!"
Hearing Xiao Peng's serious words, Melanie also felt scared. She murmured, "Fortunately, it's only six spankings. It will be fine after that!"
Xiao Peng almost laughed out loud after hearing this. "Just six spankings?" You think this caning is too simple!
