Chapter 3: Lucky Day
Being shot and killed by a loved one is discouraged enough. Now that he has to face such a situation, it makes him have a headache. Every time he thought of this, Ye Fan had no interest in the next life.
It's just that he is more interested in the origin of his new identity.
Ye Fan thought, even if he was going to die, would he have to figure out the origin of this body? In that way, he would not be in vain for others to give him a new life.
Now, he has no interest in anything other than this. That's the only purpose of his life.
This is also the reason why he is idle every day.
Every day, except for sleeping in the Dragon King Temple, the rest of the time is basically in the city. Recently, he discovered a better place, located at the riverside pier on Quanyang Road.
The city of Xuanjiang, located in the middle of the empire, was an inland city. As a result, the wharf is currently the largest transportation hub and the largest treaty port in the interior, even more than the train station.
To be honest, this era is too backward. Apart from telephones, telegrams, and letters, there was no longer any means of communication.
When Ye Fan came here, he had a feeling of returning to before liberation.
In such turbulent years, communication is extremely blocked, and it is really not easy to find out the identity of this person.
So, after going around the whole city, I finally pinned my hopes on this large dock where people came and went. Hopefully, one day someone will recognize you.
Time flies. Counting more than a month of recuperation, it has been two full months since Ye Fan came to this new world.
Now, walking on the bluestone paved streets, looking at the various quaint buildings on both sides of the street, Ye Fan already has some familiar feelings in his heart.
It's just that after so much time, he still doesn't have any clues and information about his new body.
Looking at the increasingly chaotic situation, Ye Fan began to worry a little again. Because he didn't know how long he could survive in such a situation.
Due to the incompetence of those in power, the entire national fortunes have declined sharply. Now, even some small foreign countries have begun to make some unreasonable demands. But they blindly retreated and compromised.
Look at the giants who dominate one side, but take the opportunity to expand their power.
For their own selfish desires, in order to compete for more, they don't care about the lives of the common people at all. In some cases, they will plunder the property of ordinary people. As a result, more people have been displaced and joined the ranks of the beggars.
There were many wars and starvations. Like Ye Fan, who became a beggar, was relatively lucky. Although he had a hard time, at least he was alive.
Now, we are again in the period of negotiations between the forces of various parties. The city where Ye Fan is located is under the control of a guy named Su Yaonan. I heard that this person is not bad, he has a good law, and he never attacks the people.
Therefore, this Xuanjiang capital is still a safe zone for the time being.
It's just that Ye Fan doesn't know how long this situation can last.
Although it is still a truce. But in the current situation, many forces will eventually ignite the flames of war again. When that day comes, the city will be under fire again.
Thinking of this, Ye Fan felt panicked in his heart. The heart said: 'I don't know what evil I did in my last life? That stinky old man actually allowed himself to be reincarnated here. ’
While thinking, walking. When Ye Fan was about to arrive at the pier, he saw a cruise ship docked at the pier. A group of people was slowly walking down the boat.
Judging by the appearance and dress of those who disembarked, the vast majority of them were not Imperial. It can also be proved from this that this is an overseas cruise ship.
For this, Ye Fan was not surprised. After all, a large part of the city where I am now has been painted as a harmonious area.
The country is rich and the people are strong, and the country is declining and the people are cheap.
Civil wars arose, and the country was rapidly decaying. This has made the worst time possible, and this has also fueled the arrogance of those foreigners.
Don't be surprised if you see them running rampant on the Empire's turf.
This also makes ordinary people avoid those brightly dressed foreigners when they see them, in order to avoid disasters.
Of course, Ye Fan is no exception. In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, he deliberately walked towards the edge of the steps, leaving enough space for the foreigners to walk.
When Ye Fan walked to the side of the steps and stood still, about to sit down, he saw a woman carrying a suitcase walking up the steps with great difficulty.
To be exact, it should be a girl in her twenties. With a graceful body and delicate and sweet appearance, she is a sunny girl with an aristocratic temperament.
The girl wears a light gray suit with a pair of milky white casual leather shoes on her feet. A slightly curly long black hair, casually draped over his shoulders. With a light gray beret, the whole person looks stylish and noble.
She carries a small white bag on her left shoulder and a pink suitcase in her right hand.
It may be the reason for the birth of a wealthy family. Born delicate, he has never done physical work. Although it was only a small suitcase, it seemed very difficult.
When the girl was about to walk up to Ye Fan, a man suddenly jumped out from behind him.
Actually, Ye Fan had already paid attention. At the moment when the man jumped out, Ye Fan stretched out his left foot without making a trace. The guy who jumped out quickly, under Ye Fan's stumbling feet, the whole person fell forward violently.
At the moment when that guy fell into the air, when Ye Fan just wanted to retract his left foot, he was also sneak attacked. Someone kicked him hard in the ass.
Ye Fan, who was originally standing on the side of the steps, lost his center of gravity in an instant with that powerful foot, and the whole person involuntarily rushed forward, straight to the girl on the steps below.
The girl felt that she was very unlucky, she had a hard time carrying a box, and when she saw a man fall towards her, she instinctively flashed to the side, and she could dodge.
However, before her figure could stand, a beggar-like guy actually pounced on her again.
She was very lucky to be able to escape the guy before. When Ye Fan pounced on her, she had lost the ability to dodge again, and instinctively let go of the box and reached out to block it.
It's just that, under such an abrupt change, how can she resist with her delicate body. There was no suspense in the result, she was pounced on by Ye Fan.
"Ah......" While exclaiming, the girl also instinctively grabbed Ye Fan's clothes.
Then, people saw a man and a woman, like an intimate couple, hugging each other tightly.
After that, there will be no more surprises. As if afraid of losing each other, they hugged each other tighter and rolled down the steps at a fast pace.
At this time, it is the time for the cruise ship to drop off passengers. Quite a few people have seen this scene. However, no one came to help.
Not only that, but those who were originally at the bottom of the steps saw the two of them rolling down, and flashed to the side as fast as they could.
The results are obvious. Hearing only a "plop", the two fell into the rolling river under the steps without the slightest accident.
Even so, no one came to help. The curious person only glanced at the place where the two fell into the water, and continued his journey.
Of course, it's not that they're cold, it's that they've found out that there's a reason for it. Because, just when the two of them fell into the water, a man in a black trench coat quickly ran over there.
Sharp-eyed people even saw them running with something in their hands. It was a weapon that could kill people in an instant, a pistol.
Obviously, these two guys are not good people. So, no one wants to risk these two unrelated people.
"Ah...... Poof......"
Plop, plop, plop...... , The girl after falling into the water is a flurry of fluttering in the water.
Ye Fan didn't expect that this girl, who looked very foreign, couldn't swim. I wanted to carry her to the shore, but I remembered the conversation I heard between the two before.
Those two men were not from the Divine Dragon Empire, but from the White Sun Country. From their conversation, it was known that they were coming for the chick in front of them.
Thinking of this, Ye Fan couldn't help but have a question in his heart: 'What is the origin of this beautiful girl?'
I have to say that today is the lucky day for this girl.
You said, if it weren't for the coincidence that Ye Fan came to the dock at this time. And when I came, I happened to hear the conversation between the two white people, and there would be no such thing as the next series of things.
Of course, this beautiful chick may also die young.
People say: If you are good, you will help the world, and if you are poor, you will be good alone.
Ye Fan is now an ordinary beggar, not even a poor person, so naturally he doesn't want to cause trouble. It's just that when the man jumped out from behind him, he didn't know why, but he actually stretched out his foot.
Now, the wood is in the boat, and it is useless to regret it. He knew that those two white people would definitely not give up easily if they did not achieve their goal.
