Translator: 549690339

Outside the city gate, there was an endless stream of people. From tto time, people would go in and out. Before Xu Bai could get close, he saw that people had already gathered at the city gate.

Originally, a place like the city gate should have the function of circulation, but at this moment, the city gate seemed to be congested.

Xu Bai could hear the noise of the crowd from tto time. He heard sof it and walked closer to see what was going on through the gaps in the crowd.

A scholar dressed in ordinary clothes was currently lying on the ground with two tattered books in his hands. He could not help but cry. In front of this scholar was a wealthy middle-aged man dressed in silk.

When Xu Bai got closer, he could hear the scholar’s cries.

“You’re too unreasonable. I worked part- tat your house so that I could eat while I was studying.”

“I worked so hard for your family, but in the end, you didn’t even pay me.

Everyone, take a look. Nanhua Road is a holy land for scholars.”

“You have to givean explanation today. Otherwise, don’t even think about leaving.”

The poor scholar cried as he kicked the ground from tto time, giving off the feeling of a broken jar.

Such a scene had never been seen in Nanhua Road, which was full of scholarly atmosphere, so it attracted the attention of many people.

There was a saying that a place’s water and soil nurtured its people. The commoners of Nanhua Path were well-educated and polite. Most of them had read many books of sages. Therefore, even if they were watching the show, they were quite orderly.

Xu Bai was also hiding in the crowd, watching the show.

In this world, who didn’t like to watch a show?

The muscular merchant was obviously disturbed by the surrounding crowd and felt that staying here was a bit embarrassing. Therefore, he waved his sleeves and turned around to leave, ignoring the poor scholar.

However, before he could take two steps, the poor scholar quivered and quickly got up. He used his hands and feet to climb to the side of the wealthy businessman, hugged his leg, and continued to shout.

“Everyone, be my witness. He actually wants to run. Is there any reason for that? If he doesn’t pay his salary today, he’s not allowed to run.”

As he shouted, the scholar’s eyes swept across the crowd from tto time. This scene was coincidentally seen by Xu Bai.

Xu Bai frowned. He felt that there was something wrong with this scholar. In fact, this kind of situation was not uncommon in other places.

However, the fact that he was throwing a tantrum on the street and looking at the people around him from tto tproved that this scholar’s intention was not here, but the people around him.

Xu Bai continued to watch.

At this moment, the scholar’s gaze suddenly paused in Xu Bai’s direction. Xu Bai raised his eyebrows and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He finally understood what was going on.

“Oh, so it’s Xiang Zhuang who is dancing with the sword. “Xu Bai thought to himself.

When the scholar’s gaze stopped in his direction, although he quickly shifted his gaze away, Xu Bai could clearly feel that the scholar’s true intention was him.

Xu Bai decided to continue watching. At least for now, it was quite interesting.

The merchant was a little irritated by the scholar’s tugging. In the end, he pushed the scholar to the ground with a wave of his hand and threw a large amount of money.

“Take it. Is this enough?”

“You’re doing a part-tjob at my place, but you’re always slacking off. Although you’re reading when you’re slacking off, you should at least do your job, right?”

“Today, you’ve earned this money, but don’t think about doing this business again in the future.”

After all, he was a businessman. The rich businessman did not want to waste there and did not spend much money. He hurriedly said a few harsh words and left.

The poor scholar sat on the ground and looked at the money on the ground. He was stunned on the spot.

He raised his head slightly and sized Xu Bai up. However, he saw that Xu Bai was looking at him as if he was watching a melon and had no intention of walking out.

The poor scholar gritted his teeth. After he reacted, he picked up all the money on the ground and left.

With nothing to eat, the surrounding onlookers naturally dispersed. Only Xu Bai remained where he was. He looked in the direction where the poor scholar had left and disappeared in the next moment.

After the poor scholar left the city gate, he walked through several winding alleys and finally arrived at a dilapidated house.

This house was indeed dilapidated. Compared to the surrounding houses, it seemed to have never been repaired. If not for the fact that the roof was relatively intact, it would probably leak.

The poor scholar opened the door and walked inside.

Just as he was about to close the door, a hand suddenly jumped out and grabbed his neck, pushing him against the wall.

The poor scholar immediately woke up. He struggled to shout, but when he saw the owner of the hand, his eyes clearly glazed over.

This dull emotion only lasted for a moment before it was covered by the poor scholar, but it could not escape his eyes.

“Who are you? Why did you trespass? Be careful, if I shout, people from the government will rush over.”

His tone was filled with panic, as if he was really a weak person who had been suddenly caught.

” Weren’t you looking foroutside just now?” Xu Bai said with a smile..” Now that I’m here, why are you scared?””
