C197 (1/2)
Lu Beiyou only felt that the street was releasing a bit of incense into his body. There were peddlers' firewood, oil and salt, prodigal son's poems, wine and paintings, and the heart of a traveler. He did not know why, but there was also a trace of sadness.
After a long while, Lu Beiyou slowly opened his eyes and exhaled out a mouthful of foul air.
No wonder the great master wanted him to travel. There were many things in this world that he did not understand.
”Young Master Lu is truly an extraordinary material. One can even comprehend it just by walking around the streets. If Young Master Lu were to go to any of the cultivation holy grounds, it would probably take him a hundred days to get there. ”
Yuan Guyang suddenly spoke out, interrupting Lu Beiyou's train of thoughts.
Lu Beiyou smiled and said softly, ”Thank you, Mayor Yuan.”
Yuan Guyang smiled as he shook his head, looked at the market in front of him and said: ”Everything here is under my control. Whether it's the merchants who set up the stalls or the pedestrians passing by, if I can be of use to the Young Master Lu, it would be a good talk.”
Hearing this, Lu Beiyou frowned, but he felt a bit uncomfortable in his heart.
Yuan Guyang's words seemed to have treated these commoners as his vassals. And everything here was his personal property.
Yuan Guyang smiled and did not speak anymore. He lifted his leg and walked forward.
Lu Beiyou followed them. Along the way, when the vendors saw Yuan Guyang, they smiled and greeted him, as if they were old friends who had known each other for a long time.
Lu Beiyou's heart could not help but shudder, this Yuan Guyang had a good relationship with the citizens of the city?
Just then, a group of beggars dressed in shabby clothing appeared in front of Lu Beiyou. From their posture, it was clear that they were a couple.
When Yuan Guyang appeared in front of them, their eyes were filled with surprise and joy, and they immediately rushed towards the two of them.
When Yuan Guyang saw them, he could not help but sigh. Without waiting for Lu Beiyou to speak, the beggars and couples all knelt down and said excitedly: ”City Lord, I beg of you, help us, help us, help us find my pitiful child.”
As he spoke, his emotions were extremely unstable, and his body couldn't help but tremble. The others also fell to their knees, and there were even a few women who couldn't hold back their tears as they sobbed.
Lu Beiyou looked at the group of people kneeling on the ground, his face was full of suspicion, and quickly went forward to console them.
With Yuan Guyang's repeated promises, these couples helped each other up and opened up a path for the two.
Lu Beiyou glanced at these people, their clothes were tattered, and their faces were filled with grief. Their complexion was haggard, and it was obvious that they had suffered for a long time.
”Mayor Yuan, this is …”
Yuan Guyang sighed, but his eyes were filled with melancholy, ”Guyang City is located at the border of the East Zhou, not only are there merchants and travelers, there are also people who are seeking refuge and seeking life, and these people are the refugees, and their children have somehow disappeared after they entered the city, I have long accepted this matter, and promised to help them find their children. But he didn't have a clue. However, I've recently heard the news from the people I sent, and have already found some clues. It shouldn't take too long for them to reunite. ”
The parents who were in front of Yuan Guyang all looked excited to hear his words, and they knelt down, thanking him.
