Chapter 228

The ancient beast left the ancient city of Wanbao and followed it all the way to the north.

It can track their approximate location based on the aura Su Yan once left in the treasure house.

Su Yan, who was going to the Qindan Dynasty, didn't know about the series of changes that happened in the ancient city of Wanbao, let alone that there was a terrifying ancient beast tracking him.

However, it had been a whole day since they left the ancient city of Wanbao. Although they did not move forward at full speed, the speed of the two spirit tigers was not slow.The ancient beast was a whole day late, and it was not easy to catch up.

Walking north along the periphery of the Iron Swallow Mountain Range, Su Yan finally got a real glimpse of the majesty of this mountain range.Although it is only the periphery, the rolling mountains have not entered the clouds. The vegetation covering the mountains is dense and lush, and the ancient trees are towering. It is a primitive scene.

On the edge of the forest, you can often see some ancient beasts and birds that you have never seen before. These beasts and birds have disappeared in the outside world for tens of thousands of years.

This place seems to be a corner of the prehistoric land left over from the ancient times, and the wild atmosphere is overwhelming!

After more than a day, Su Yan and others finally entered the main boundary of the Qindan Dynasty and gradually moved away from the Tieyan Mountain Range.

The land here is very rich, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, many villages and prosperous towns.

The destination of this trip was Qindan King City, so Su Yan and the others didn't stop too much on the way, they just stopped occasionally in the town to have a rest, and then continued on their way.

After another two days like this, a huge city appeared in sight.

Xuanzhou City!
Sitting on the spirit tiger, Su Yan frowned slightly as he looked at the three ancient characters engraved on the city gate.

Such a huge city should be very prosperous, but it gives people a feeling of depression and coldness.

There was a turbid air in the city, which made people feel very uncomfortable.Moreover, the land around the city was dry, the ground was cracked, all the vegetation was dead, and a gust of wind blew up the sky full of yellow sand.

"How can the weather here be so hot?" Su Yan looked at the sky, there was no cloud in the sky, and the scorching sun hung high.Although this temperature is nothing to a martial artist like him, it is unbearable to ordinary people.

The soldiers guarding both sides of the city gate were sweating and listless.

Su Yan only stood at the gate of the city for a while, and saw several groups of ragged and skinny people pouring into the city, even the soldiers guarding the city couldn't stop them.

"Brother Su Yan, why do these people look like this, they look so pitiful." Dieyi is kind-hearted, and seeing these refugees, she couldn't bear it.

"Something must have happened here, we'll find out when we go to the central area of ​​the city." Su Yan shook his head and said, then drove the spirit tiger towards the city.

When the soldiers guarding the city saw a man and two women riding spirit beasts, their eyes showed shock, but they didn't dare to stop them, they just looked at them a few more times.

Walking into the city, the scene in front of him was polarized, and Su Yan was stunned.

Refugees were lying everywhere in the corners on both sides of the street, some were dying of hunger, some were seriously ill, but there were also people in brocade clothes and gold, silver and jade ornaments among the passers-by on the street.

Inside the restaurant, the shouts and laughter of the drinkers spread from time to time, and the smell of meat wafted out.

It can be said that the wine and meat of a wealthy family stinks, and there are frozen bones on the road.

Natalya also couldn't bear it, and couldn't help but look at Su Yan.

Su Yan shook his head and sighed, turned over from Linghu's back, and then walked towards the nearby restaurant.

"Xiaoer, here are some of your signature dishes, and a jug of high-quality wine." Su Yan chose to sit by the window, and at the same time ordered the waiter to follow.

The waiter in the shop nodded and left, and after a short while, he brought up some delicious special dishes: "Customers, take your time." He just turned around and left, when a few ragged little beggars with a bad smell rushed over. He came up, reached out and grabbed the food on Su Yan's table, and put it to his mouth, devouring it hungrily.

"You beggars, you dare to come here to snatch food, you want to die!" The waiter rushed over in two steps, raised the tray in his hand and beat the three little beggars, cursing: "You little beggars, Is this a place where you can come, get out of here quickly!"
"Okay!" Su Yan frowned slightly, and looked at the waiter coldly, making him tremble in fright, and the mole on the corner of his mouth trembled, so he hurried to accompany him: "Guest officer, it's a little carelessness, let these little ones Hanako is bothering you, little one, just throw them out!"

"Try it yourself? Believe it or not, I'll throw you out!" Su Yan's eyes were like knives, and the waiter in the shop lowered his head in fright, not daring to make a sound.He looked at the three pitiful little beggars with dirty faces covered with tears, looked at him in horror, and said, "Don't be afraid, I won't blame you. You can eat whatever you want on the table." !"
"Really?"
"Of course it's true." Su Yan nodded.

The three little beggars knelt down and kowtowed: "Thank you big brother, thank you big brother, good people will be rewarded, thank you!"

"Okay, get up quickly, sit down and eat slowly." Su Yan smiled, and then looked at the surprised waiter, and said, "What are you waiting for, give me two more servings of the same dish, one Give these three children a copy, and bring a copy to the table."
After Su Yan finished speaking, he got up with Natalya and Dieyi and came to the next table, and gave the whole table to the three Xiaohuazi. Seeing how they were devouring, suddenly felt a little sour in his heart.

This is the life of a mortal. When the ability is not enough, even a full meal is an extravagant hope.Even if warriors have limited abilities, but because they have means far superior to ordinary people, no matter what, they can ensure that they have no worries about food and clothing.

Not long after, Xiao Er brought up two identical dishes and sighed: "Guest officer, you are a kind person. It's just that Xuanzhou City has flooded with a large number of refugees, and the parents of these children have starved to death long ago. There are countless beggars like them, and the guest officials alone cannot help them."
"Xiaoer, tell me what's going on. The huge city of Xuanzhou City should be very prosperous, but how did it become like this now? Where did these refugees come from?"
"Hey!" The waiter in the shop sighed, shaking his head and said, "What a crime! It's a long story. Since ancient times, our Xuanzhou has been an extremely prosperous and rich place, and the people's life is rich. But since half a year ago, It has become extremely hot here, the farmland has no harvest, and the land is barren. If the people have no food, it means that they have cut off their livelihoods, and I don’t know how many people have starved to death!"
Su Yan frowned: "The Qin Dan Dynasty is powerful and rules hundreds of cities, so didn't the higher-ups send people down to help the disaster?"
"Yes, the emperor sent Gao Zhe, the third son of Prime Minister Zuo, who is now the uncle of the country and the younger brother of Concubine Li Gui, to Xuanzhou to provide relief. But instead of distributing the relief materials to the victims, Gao Zhe sent the relief materials Selling them into spirit diamonds, filling their own pockets, and not caring about the lives of the people at all..."
"Then Gao Zhe, the dignified uncle of the country, would actually take a fancy to this relief supplies?"

"Guest officer, you don't know that our Xuanzhou is thousands of miles away. This time, there are tens of millions of victims. The emperor has always loved the people like a son, and he will definitely allocate a large amount of supplies. This is not a small amount. If you sell it into a spiritual diamond , I am afraid it will cost tens of millions. Although Gao Zhe is the uncle of the country, how can he resist the temptation of this huge sum of money."
"So that's the case." Su Yan nodded, his face gradually turned cold, "Then Gao Zhe is still in Xuanzhou City?"
"He is still in Xuanzhou, and he lives in the original city lord's mansion. The city lord was dismissed because of the disaster in Xuanzhou." The waiter said nervously, "Guest officer, I know you are a warm-hearted person. It can also be seen that you are not an ordinary person, you must be a martial artist with advanced cultivation. But you should not care about Gao Zhe's affairs, you can't do it."
"Oh? In addition to being the uncle of the country, Gao Zhe has three heads and six arms?"

"Guest officer, you don't know. This Xuanzhou is [-] miles away from the royal city. The so-called mountain is far away from the emperor, and it is difficult for the things here to reach the emperor's ears, which further fueled Gao Zhe's arrogance. He just came here When he was young, he built a Juxian Pavilion, which was widely popular with warriors from all over the world, and he had many capable people and strangers. Besides, he is the uncle of the country, and he brought many masters here when he came here, no one can afford it! "
"Okay, Xiaoer, you can step back." Su Yan said, took out ten low-grade spiritual diamonds and put them in the tray in Xiaoer's second hand, and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work."
"Thank you, sir!"

"By the way, Xiaoer, do you know how many refugees there are in and around this city?"

Xiaoer thought for a while and said, "Not counting those who died, at least there are sixty-seven million. Guest officer, why are you asking this?"

"It's okay, you go and do your work."
"Okay, take your time, guest officer, and I'll retire now, little one."
As soon as Xiao Er stepped back, Natalya turned to look at Su Yan: "What are your plans, do you want to..."
"That's right, it's fine if you don't know about these things. Since you encounter them, you have to take care of them. There are many good causes, and they will eventually bear good results."
Natalya nodded: "Gao Zhe has done too much. If this kind of person is not accepted, it will be intolerable. But before we deal with Gao Zhe, we should fill the stomachs of those victims, otherwise we will not know. How many disaster victims starved to death on the street."
Half an hour later, Su Yan and Natalya left the restaurant with Dieyi and found the largest grain merchant in Xuanzhou City.

"Several, are you here to buy food?" A person who looked like a junior came forward and asked.

Su Yan shook his head: "Call your boss out."
Hearing this, a middle-aged man who looked like the shopkeeper walked over quickly and said with a smile, "I am the shopkeeper here. What's the matter?"

"I must be buying food at the food store, but I don't know if you have enough food here?" Su Yan pulled a chair and sat down casually, "The food I want is not a small amount."
"Young Master, you are joking. We supply the food for the entire Xuanzhou City here. You can have as much as you want, Young Master. Don't worry at all!"

Seeing the shopkeeper's confident expression, Su Yan smiled and said, "Since that's the case, can the shopkeeper tell me how much rice and flour are stored?"

"This...Young master, you are not joking, how can we tell you about our inventory at will. Besides, when you buy food, you only need to tell us how much you need. Why ask about the inventory of our store?"

"I'm afraid you don't have enough stock."
"Isn't your son a bit loud?"

Su Yan smiled lightly, "What's the price of your flour and rice here?"

"Ten catties of mortal-level low-grade spiritual diamonds for rice, and fifteen catties of flour. No matter how much you want, my lord, this shop can meet your needs."
"Very good, since that's the case, the shopkeeper will give me [-] million catties of rice and [-] million catties of flour. In addition, I will rent your store for a while with a million spiritual diamonds. I wonder if the shopkeeper will agree?"

"How much...how much?"

The shopkeeper Teng Teng Teng stepped back several steps, his eyes widened, and he couldn't believe his ears.And the waiter in the shop next to him was already terrified and sat on the ground, muttering: "Shopkeeper, did you hear me right, they said that rice and flour each cost [-] million catties!"
"Young master, are you sure you are not joking with this shop?"

"Does the shopkeeper look like I'm joking? The shopkeeper asked some people to distribute these rice and flour to the victims for me. Not only the victims in this city, but also the victims around the city."
"You... You bought so much grain just for disaster relief?" The shopkeeper and Xiaoer were too shocked to speak, and the other people who came to buy grain were also stunned, and they all looked at him in a daze.

How much wealth and selflessness it takes for one person to feed millions of people!
