1509 Flying Cloud City (2/2)
The waiter said as he led the guest to a table next to the street on the first floor, saying, ”Look, you said you liked to sit close to the street. You even chose this table last time!”
The guest replied with a faint smile as he said, ”Give me some food and drinks...”
”Got it, please wait for a moment. I will serve you right now...”
Of course, the guest who had been in As You Will was Zhang Tie.
Over one month ago, Zhang Tie had already come to Flying Cloud City to look for the kid of Ma Aiyun and him. Zhang Tie had almost traveled across all the prefectures and cities in Shangyu Prefecture and Tongzhou Province as a whole where were affected by bloody figures and had communicated with a lot of survivors. He had tried every means he could. He even had Golden Roc Bank and the Bright Way Building in Tongzhou Province to deliver a notice with a great amount of reward for clues. However, all these didn't work.
Zhang Tie didn't know the look of that kid; however, if he was his son, Zhang Tie could definitely sense it and recognize him when he saw him. With this belief, Zhang Tie kept looking for his son for over one month.
Yesterday, after traveling across Tongzhou Province, with concern and the last bit hope, Zhang Tie returned to Flying Cloud City. Today, Zhang Tie kept walking in Flying Cloud City in vain...
Too many people had died in Flying Cloud City that day. Additionally, bloody figures had burned the entire city, turning it almost into ruins as a whole. As a result, many people were turned into ash. The place where Zhang Taixuan arranged that kid in the south of Flying Cloud City had completely been in ruins. Therefore, it would definitely be more difficult than finding a needle in the hay in the residential area which suffered a great casualty.
Zhang Tie had just traveled there. The ruins in the residential area had already been cleaned up. However, the weeds there were as high as 1 m. At night, some will-o'-the-wisp were floating over there which appeared very frightening. Almost nobody lived in the surroundings. That place was going to be built into a camp for city guards...
After a short while, the waiter had served Zhang Tie 5 dishes and 1 flagon of spirit. Sitting beside the window, Zhang Tie watched the sparse population passing by as he ate food numbly. He was envisioning a blood-tied teenager who looked like Ma Aiyun among the crowd...
Zhang Tie would soon leave here. If he couldn't find his kid, he had to return to Fiery-Dragon Bounty Territory.
After over one month's search, although he didn't want to face that possibility, Zhang Tie realized that the kid of him and Ma Aiyun probably had already perished in the disturbance caused by bloody figures three years ago.
Zhang Tie had a mouth of time-honored dark plum spirit; although it tasted sweet, it was bitter later. Only Zhang Tie could taste the bitterness...
