Little Overlord was born to be more cruel, evil, and violent than others to gain the rule of the City of God, but found that violence is not the best way to make money, but drug trafficking. But the prerequisite for economic development is a peaceful and stable social environment.

So Xiaobawang established rules within the organization to not allow him to commit crimes, and actively cracked down on other crimes. All of a sudden, the City of God won peace and stability that it had never had before, and gunshots were almost inaudible. People from other places flocked to buy drugs, and the bully made a big smile. The local residents are also very welcome. Although they know that Xiaobawang has done a lot of bad things, it doesn't matter as long as it is profitable.

However, the good times did not last long.

Because Xiao Bawang's power is based on violence, which means that anyone who is like him or even more cruel can replace it. The last group of little ghosts in the film is such a person. In this society based on violence, a generation is more evil than a generation, and more accustomed to violence. And what about people who try to be good? Look at handsome Ned. A second ago, he was still teaching A Pao not to do bad things, but to learn to leave this ghost place. In the next second, his girl was raped by Xiaobawang, and his uncles and brothers were shot to death one after another. At this time, it is inevitable that Ned will embark on the same path of violence.

It is worth noting that often the demise of a triad group starts from within. If it were not for the merging of Xiaobawang and Hongmao, those little devil heads could not be replaced so quickly, no matter how evil they were.

The irony is that the seemingly good people, the residents of the City of God, have also become crippled pond fish in the fall of the power of the underworld. This is probably the price of acquiescence to sin.

Those thousands of miles away who didn't know a few words, relying on instinct to interpret such a creepy story for us, can I think about it carefully, isn't all this familiar? It's just that those who have read books are more able to modify it.

And we are all residents of the City of God, this is the most precious part of this movie.
