I'm Still Alive: The Self-Story of a Bandit from Xiangxi
I'm a Xiangxi bandit. My name is Li Hong. I was born into a bandit family. Both my parents were bandits who often robbed villages and cities for money. When I was young, I received bandit training and learned how to use weapons and martial arts. As I grew older, I felt more and more that I couldn't live in such an environment forever. I needed to change my fate. So I decided to join a bandit organization and start robbing banks and shops. Although it's dangerous, I think it's a responsibility I have to take on. After many years of hard work, I became an experienced bandit and established my own power. I have a powerful armed force under me. We often rob banks and shops and earn a lot of money. But I also gradually realized that such behavior was immoral and illegal. I can't go on like this. I need to find a new way to survive and develop. So I decided to give up my identity as a bandit and start my life anew. I left my bandit organization and began a new journey. Now I have left that area and started my life anew. I became a businessman and ran a small business. I work hard to contribute to society and live a happy life. I know that my fate has always been decided by myself. I chose a different path, but I'm glad I chose the right one.
