39, two males meet
Li Xiang and Auman immediately changed their faces, and the two looked at each other before turning their faces.
I saw Gaul Jie and a middle-aged man standing in front of him.
Li Xiang and the middle-aged man looked at each other, their eyes intersecting, and they looked at each other.
Judging from the temperament and clothing of a middle-aged man, if he is not rich, he is expensive, and he is accompanied by a "dead man's toothpaste", nine out of ten guess who it is.
The middle-aged man immediately smiled and stepped forward, saying, "Presumably this is the famous 'Heavenly Divine Envoy' Li Xiang, right?" ”
Li Xiang said pretendedly: "Huh? Looking at your honorable face, could it be the 'richest man in Rome' Hitura? ”
Sildura smirked.
Li Xiang took the initiative to hold Xidula's hand and said politely: "It's really Su Yang!" Su Yang! Su Yang! ”
Xidula can be regarded as a person who has seen some of the world, and when he heard that shaking hands is also a kind of etiquette, he also shook Li Xiang's hand and said, "Fortunately!" Fortunately! Fortunately! ”
Li Xiang said again: "Admiration! Admire! Admire! ”
"Su Yang!"
"Luckily!"
But from the eyes of Li Xiang and Xidula, onlookers can see that it is the standard "appearance" plus "duplicity".
After the salute, the two let go of their hands.
"I don't have a lot of books, but I've also heard the famous proverb 'three fires when a new official takes office'! But what I didn't expect was that the adult's 'two fires' would 'burn' my eight million Sesters! Sidullah said.
Li Xiang smiled and said, "Misunderstanding! It's just a misunderstanding! ”
Sidullah said angrily, "'Misunderstanding'? Then he smiled again and said, "That's it! Since you said it was just a misunderstanding, I don't want to say anything more, but I hope that there will be no more misunderstandings between you and you. ”
Li Xiang just smiled faintly.
Immediately, Sidula's face changed again, and she said, "Eh! I seem to have overheard what the two of you said just now, what 'the patriarchs believe it'? ”
Li Xiang thought to himself: This time I was in trouble, I blamed myself for being too careless, I really don't know how much of my conversation with Auman was heard by them? Even if you only hear the last few words, it is troublesome, and it is really difficult to make up a lie that has no loopholes at all, so I looked at Auman, hoping that Auman can think of some good lie.
Auman looked at Li Xiang and shook his head with a sad face.
Li Xiang had no choice but to pretend to be crazy and stupid, laughing nonsense, hoping to delay time to quickly make up a lie.
Sidullah and Gaul Jie felt a little puzzled when they saw Li Xiang's inexplicable smile.
After a while, Sidula looked at Li Xiang just laughing, and knew that Li Xiang had become too close to his own question and avoided answering, so he rolled his eyes and was about to ask what was going on, but inadvertently, he saw a lot of people coming around.
Are these people enemies? Is it a friend? Is it a blessing? Is it woe?
The crowd is getting closer and closer, and the number of people is getting bigger and bigger.
Seeing this situation, Li Xiang also stopped laughing.
Sidullah said to Li Xiang, "Who are these people?" What do you want to do here? ”
"Could it be that your enemy is looking for someone to fix you?" Li Xiang replied.
Orman said: "It seems that it is menacing, and it really looks like a revenge seeker." ”
Sildura immediately looked panicked, "Huh? Look for... Seeking revenge? He hurriedly said to Otman, "Aren't you the little head of the Praetorian Guard?" You're responsible for keeping us safe! ”
Orman said, "I'm sorry! Today I don't have a shift, it's my personal time. ”
The group had already surrounded the four of them.
The four of them looked at the crowd.
Sidullah said to the people: "Righteous men! What's the matter, let's discuss! ”
There was a middle-aged man in the crowd with a straight face and yelled, "Discuss what a fart! What else to say to people like you. ”
An elderly man said to Sidula, "We don't want to see you, you and your dog get out!" ”
Sildura was immediately surprised: "You're not here to deal with me!" ”
The middle-aged man shouted, "Are you deaf!" Do you have to punch you to get out? ”
Sidullah hurriedly said, "Eh! No, no, no, it must be a misunderstanding, so I won't bother you, you can do whatever you want! He looked at Li Xiang with gloating eyes, and thought: With so many people coming to deal with you, this time you will have to be crippled even if you don't die, how long can you, a "divine envoy", be "god"?
Sidullah and Gaulje walked briskly away from the crowd.
Seeing this situation, Li Xiang thought to himself: In Rome, except for the Sidula just now, I don't seem to have offended anyone! What are these people looking for me for? Eh! I guess the patriarchs knew the truth, so they found these people to take revenge on me? Miserable! Miserable! ”
Orman shouted at the crowd, "Who are you? Dare to gather all things here? ”
The old man hurriedly explained, "My lord, we are a crowd, but there is nothing wrong with us!" ”
Orman wondered, "Then you ......?"
The middle-aged man said, "...... We are all here to meet Master Li Xiang. ”
Li Xiang looked at everyone with surprised eyes and whispered, "'Meet'? So many people? Excuse it! ”
The elderly man stepped forward and said to Li Xiang, "My lord, don't you recognize me?" ”
Li Xiang looked at it carefully, recalled for a moment, and said, "It seems that I saw you somewhere, but I can't remember it clearly." ”
The middle-aged man also stepped forward and said to Li Xiang: "If you hadn't rescued us last time, we would have died in Huangquan." ”
Li Xiang immediately had an epiphany, and then said, "Oh! Come to think of it, you're the merchants in the big market! He smiled, shook his head, and continued, "I still think you are ......"
The middle-aged man said, "My lord, did you think of us as bad people before?" ”
Li Xiang touched the back of his head with his right hand, smiled, and said, "Huh? How did you know I was here? ”
The old man said: "The big market will reopen at the beginning of next month, and we will come over to see if there is anything else we can do to help, and we happened to see you coming, so we will also 'choose a day is better than hit the day', and come to meet together."
Li Xiang said: "I'm not a great person, what else do I 'meet'?" It is fate that we can all meet together. ”
At this time, a woman led a young man about fifteen or sixteen years old to Li Xiang's side.
Li wanted to recognize the woman in front of him as the one who was crying extremely miserably because her husband was hit by a carriage and died.
The woman looked at Li Xiang with tears in her eyes, and suddenly knelt in front of Li Xiang.
Li Xiang hurriedly went to help, "What is this for?" ”
Women still can't afford it.
Li Xiang said to the young man again: "Little friend, are you her son!" If yes, come and do me a favor and help me get your mom up! ”
Before Li Xiang's words fell, the young man also knelt on the ground.
Li Xiang hurriedly went to help the young man again, "I still expect you to help me!" Why are you on your knees? Then he said to the people, "Can anyone tell me what is going on?" ”
The old man said to the woman, "Monica, you and Taylor get up first!" Adults don't like people kneeling in front of him. ”
Then the women and the boys got up.
The woman said to Li Xiang: "On the day of my husband's accident, we came out to do business on the first day, and most of the money for trading was borrowed, and the business was not completed, but the goods were knocked over by the carriage, and even my husband was killed by the carriage, but we still have a sixteen-year-old son to support. ”
Li Xiang nodded.
The woman continued: "If it weren't for you, Lord Li Xiang, speaking for us poor people in the Senate, I would not have been able to receive so much compensation, let alone the pension issued to our family by the 'Ministry of Civil Affairs.'" ”
The elderly man said, "This is something that I really didn't even dare to think about in the past. ”
"It gave me the confidence to move on with my life," the woman continued. ”
Li Xiang smiled with satisfaction.
The young man said to Li Xiang: "Mom often says that you are the great benefactor of our family. ”
Li Xiang smiled and touched the young man's head with his right hand, and said, "I can see that you guys are happy, everything I do is worth it." ”
The woman said to her son, "Taylor! Don't you have something to give to Master Li Xiang yourself? ”
"Something for me? What is it? Li Xiang said.
The boy took out a small statue from his waist pouch and said, "I carved it with my own hands." As he spoke, he gave the statue to Li Xiang.
Li Xiang took the statue, carefully appreciated it, and praised: "The carving is very good!" ”
The boy smiled triumphantly.
"Can you tell me who you carve?"
The boy smiled embarrassedly and said, "Yes... It's you who carve. ”
Li Xiang said in surprise: "Huh? It's me? Then he looked at the statue carefully, and then said, "I think you carved a statue of a god!?" ”
The woman explained: "Don't mind that Taylor has never seen you with his own eyes, but has often heard me and others say that you are the 'messenger of God', so he looks like a god!" ”
Li Xiang said, "Eh! How could I mind! Then he said to the boy, "Whatever you carve for me, I'm very happy, thank you!" ”
Li Xiang looked at his "statue", then at the innocent face of the young man, and then at so many simple faces around him, and felt extremely relieved from the bottom of his heart.
