Chapter 408 Bai Yuan: Everything will be fine

It is only two days' journey from Xinzheng to Nanyang.

Along the way, ever since Bai Yuan took out the [Inquiry Mirror], this thing has never returned to his hands.

Ning Yan and others couldn't help but occupy the [Inquiry Mirror], and became addicted to it, unable to extricate themselves for a while.

It's not that they have no control and only care about entertainment.

The facts are just the opposite.

They are addicted to it not only because the images presented by the [Inquiry Mirror] are novel and interesting, but also because these images can bring them many benefits.

The myths and legends recorded by Bai Yuan in [The Heart-Questing Mirror] opened their eyes to all of them.

Although they are just some fake special effects, they satisfy their reverie about the so-called immortals.

Because of this, all the girls have some insights into "Tao" and "immortal".

This is an extremely rare gain for them.

Especially for people like Concubine Yan who have not yet come into contact with the realm of unity between man and nature, this kind of realization will directly be of great help to their subsequent cultivation path.

This is also why they will sit around the [Inquiry Mirror] all day long, just hoping to see more of the so-called immortals to help them practice.

Although Bai Yuan was a little helpless about this, he actually knew very well that Ning Yan and the others were behaving normally.

After all, in this era, everyone from kings to ordinary people have very fanatical beliefs in immortals.

There are also records and descriptions of immortals in many classic ancient books.

For example, their Taoist classic "Xiaoyaoyou" records: "On the mountain of Miaogushe, there are gods and men, whose skin is like ice and snow, and who are as graceful as virgins. They do not eat grains, inhale the wind and drink dew, ride on the clouds, and control the wind and dragons." , and travel all over the world."

Bai Yuan knew that this world was not ordinary. Since the images he had seen could help Yan Lingji and the others, he was naturally even happier.

Of course, the key is that he has taken full advantage in the past two days.

However, after entering the Nanyang Realm, no one had any intention to look at the Heart-Questing Mirror.

The disaster in Nanyang was more serious than Bai Yuan imagined.

This year, due to the chaos in Tianze, many places in Nanyang have stopped harvesting.

In addition, Ji Wuye came to suppress the rebellion before and killed many people.

So Bai Yuan and others saw many people on the roadside chewing bark, digging roots, and even eating dirt from hunger.

Such a situation made Bai Yuan feel a lot worse.

Ning Yan sat next to Bai Yuan and held his hand. She didn't say anything but gave him silent comfort.

Suddenly, the carriage stopped.

Ning Yan frowned slightly: "What's going on?"

Yun Xi rode his horse to the carriage and reported: "Sir, there are farmers kneeling in front to block the road."

Bai Yuan sighed, opened the curtain and took a look, and saw three people kneeling on the ground not far ahead.

It looked like a couple with a young daughter.

Seeing Bai Yuan come out, the farmer who was kneeling on the ground quickly pulled his daughter to kowtow together.

"What are you doing?"

Bai Yuan frowned slightly, raised his right hand in the air, and the three people were helped up.

The man among the three was shocked when he saw this, and then his face showed a hint of joy, and he knelt down again, but this time he did not kowtow again.

"Sir! Your Excellency, you look like you are rich and kind-hearted. I, my wife and my daughter have not eaten for several days, and you still want me to enjoy the meal. If possible, please take me in as a slave." I am willing to spend the rest of my life praying for you!"

The man looked sallow and thin, and he raised his voice when he spoke, for fear that Bai Yuan would not hear him.

Suddenly, Bai Yuan also understood what this person meant.

He wants to sell his son and marry his daughter.

Unexpectedly, he would encounter such a thing one day.

Although Bai Yuan considers himself not a saint, he still can't help but feel a little uncomfortable when encountering this kind of thing.

He squinted his eyes, raised his head, and let out a long sigh.

"Yunxi!"

"What are your orders, sir?"

"Get them something to eat."

When Yun Xi heard this, she smiled and nodded; "I'll go right away."

Soon, Yun Xi took out some dry food and delivered it to the three people.

After receiving the dry food, the three people's eyes widened and they quickly knelt down to thank them.

"Your Majesty, great blessings will come to heaven! Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Excellency!"

Bai Yuan waved his hand.

"Okay, let's go!"

After hearing this, the man put down the food in his hand and begged again:

"My lord! My lord! Nanyang is hopeless. My little girl will die if she follows us. I beg you to be merciful and take your little girl in!"

Bai Yuan took a deep breath and looked at the gloomy sky, feeling a little depressed inside.

At this time, Yun Xi and others looked at Bai Yuan, with a bit of unbearable look in their eyes.

Yun Xi and the others all came from poor backgrounds and have experienced similar hardships, so they can quite relate to them when they encounter this kind of thing.

From the bottom of their hearts, they wanted Bai Yuan to agree.

Because from what they learned now, the man's words were not wrong.

The disaster in Nanyang was extremely serious this time, and the Korean court has not taken any action yet. The little girl will definitely die if she follows her parents.

But they also knew that they shouldn't talk about this kind of thing, so they just watched quietly.

No matter what Bai Yuan decides, they will support him.

Bai Yuan was quite hesitant.

"It's easy to save one person, but it's difficult to save ten thousand people. How many people are affected in Nanyang?"

After thinking again and again, Bai Yuan ordered Yun Xi.

"Let's find a place to stay near here today! Go and see how many victims are around and gather them all."

"Sir, this is the plan"

“Soup porridge!”

After hearing Bai Yuan's plan, Ning Yan and others in the carriage couldn't sit still.

"Let's help too!"

Seeing that Bai Yuan actually planned to give out porridge, the man who originally thought about selling his daughter also flashed a hint of joy in his eyes.

"Sir, our village is not far ahead. We can give you a rest."

"lead the way."

Bai Yuan glanced at him and nodded slightly.

It didn't take long for everyone to arrive at the village the man was talking about. The place looked extremely desolate, and only some people could be seen sporadically digging tree roots and peeling bark on the roadside.

"You go and inform others that we will be giving porridge at the entrance of the village in half an hour. Everyone can come and get it."

Bai Yuan said something to the man.

The man nodded quickly. He had just eaten some solid food on the way here. Although he was still very hungry, he felt full of strength. He took his wife and daughter and went separately to call for those who were still alive in the village.

Yun Xi and others began to get busy, building a simple porridge shed.Bai Yuan looked at this desolate scene and couldn't help but sigh.

"What's wrong with the people!"

Ning Yan stepped forward and held Bai Yuan's hand, shaking her head at him: "I can't blame you. Now that we are willing to lend a helping hand, it is already a righteous act."

Bai Yuan showed a smile: "Don't worry, I'm just sighing."

"That's good."

Ningyan nodded, which made her feel relieved.

At this time, Concubine Yan was on the side, looking at the villagers gradually gathering here, frowning slightly.

"We can only help them temporarily by giving porridge here, and it will be a drop in the bucket for the disaster in Nanyang."

Although Concubine Yan didn't know how much food Bai Yuan brought, it was obviously impossible to help the entire people of Nanyang.

In this village alone, the amount of food consumed by giving porridge every day is not a small amount.

When Bai Yuan heard this, he nodded and smiled mysteriously.

He actually has a lot of food in Shenyun Space, and the quality is very high. After all, he can afford to feed the entire spiritual rabbit clan, so he will not be short of porridge.

Of course, it is impossible for him to really take out so much food from the Shen Yun space for disaster relief. That is not necessary.

Regarding the situation in Nanyang, he actually had other plans.

"As early as I learned about the incident in Nanyang, I actually started to make preparations. Some time ago, I had people buy more food. It will be sent to Nanyang soon. Some of it will be used to relieve the victims, and the other part will be used to help the victims. Used to stabilize food prices in Nanyang."

Hearing Bai Yuan say this, the eyes of everyone present brightened a lot.

"It turns out that you were already prepared, making us worry in vain."

Concubine Yan couldn't help but roll her eyes at Bai Yuan, but she was very happy for Bai Yuan's kind deed.

But at this time, Moon God was a little curious.

"The disaster in Nanyang is so serious. The amount of food needed for disaster relief is not a small amount. It will cost a lot of money to purchase so much food, right?"

Ning Yan and others also reacted.

Although Bai Yuan is quite rich, he spent a thousand gold to buy ice silk at Xinzheng Jade Silk Shop.

But compared to the cost of disaster relief, this can only be regarded as a small amount of money!
One thousand gold, even a splash of water may not be enough.

Especially now, the price of food is soaring. The price of food in Nanyang has reached [-] gold per dendrobium. Xinzheng has also been affected, with a dendrobium costing [-] and a half gold.

And the price of food is still rising.

To solve the disaster in Nanyang, I am afraid that at least tens of thousands of gold will be needed.

Bai Yuan just smiled at this: "It's not as expensive as you think. The price of food in Nanyang is high because some people are secretly hoarding food and deliberately raising the price of food. In fact, you only need to spend some money to make the price of food drop. The disaster in Nanyang will be resolved soon."

"Besides, if it can help the people of Nanyang tide over the difficulties, it will still be worth it even if it costs tens of thousands of gold. At least in my opinion, human life is far more important than some external things."

Hearing what Bai Yuan said, the girls all nodded.

"Yes! If we can help these people, it will be worth it."

Of course, they also knew that Bai Yuan had obtained the Fire Rain Treasure, which was worth more than ten thousand gold!

Therefore, even if he really spent tens of thousands of gold, Bai Yuan would not blink an eye.

No longer worrying about how much money will be spent this time, Concubine Yan is more concerned about another issue.

"You just said that someone is secretly hoarding grain and driving up grain prices? Who is that person?"

"The richest man in Nanyang, Jade Tiger."

Bai Yuan spread his hands.

"People at night? It really fits my impression of them. Even at this time, they don't forget to make a fortune, even if the money is stained with blood."

Concubine Yan narrowed her eyes, her tone not concealing her murderous intention towards the Emerald Tiger.

"Night is Korea's parasite, eating away at this country all the time. I wouldn't be surprised if they do anything."

Bai Yuan also hates the Emerald Tiger.

There is nothing wrong with businessmen pursuing profits, but they should clearly distinguish between what money should be earned and what money should not be earned.

Now that South Korea is in dire straits, the Emerald Tiger is still trying to make money for the country. No matter what, he deserves to die!

"This time when I come to Nanyang, let's be a tiger-fighting hero! Just in time to add some chaos to the night."

Bai Yuan already made a decision in his heart.

Naturally, Ning Yan and others supported him unconditionally. They were also unhappy with the Jade Tiger, and they would be happy if they could contribute to the people of Nanyang.

Half an hour passed by, and a group of villagers had gathered at the entrance of the village, numbering no more than a hundred.

This village originally had hundreds of villagers, but after the Nanyang incident, some died during Ji Wuye's counterinsurgency, some died of starvation due to the subsequent famine, and a large number of them escaped. Seek help.

Most of the people who stayed were old, young, women and children, and there were not many young and middle-aged people at all.

At the entrance of the village, the villagers craned their necks to look at the hot rice porridge in the porridge shed, and all of them swallowed hard.

"Everyone lines up and comes one by one, everyone has a share!"

Yun Xi and others quickly organized the villagers to line up to receive rice porridge and maintain order at the scene.

Although the villagers were very hungry, they also knew the rules and did not cause any chaos such as jumping in line. They all lined up obediently.

When they drank the hot rice porridge, their eyes turned red.

Many people were squatting on the side of the road, shedding tears and drinking tasteless rice porridge, not forgetting to thank Bai Yuan and others.

Li Zheng in the village walked to Bai Yuan with the help of a young man, using a cane, and planned to kneel down to him without saying a word.

Bai Yuan quickly helped him up.

"Old man, there's no need for this, get up quickly."

"Your Excellency is giving porridge here today, which is already a life-saving grace for us. As the upright person here, I have nothing to repay. I can only thank you for your kindness!"

There Zheng's voice was a little trembling and his attitude was a little firm.

Bai Yuan supported him: "I don't give porridge here just to get you to repay me. It's just that I have the ability to help you now, so I did it. You don't have to do this."

"Soon, people will come to provide relief, and everything will be fine by then."

Li Zheng cried with joy when he heard Bai Yuan's words.

"Yes, yes, it will get better, it will get better."

That night, Bai Yuan and others stayed in the village.

Li was greeting the villagers and cleaning out several clean houses for them to live in.

Stayed in the village for two days.

Bai Yuan asked Yun Xi and others to give porridge twice a day to help the victims.

People from other nearby villages also heard about what happened here and rushed over to ask for a bite to eat.

Therefore, the number of people in the village has increased from about a hundred to almost two hundred now.

And on the third day, the people Bai Yuan and others finally arrived.

A group of Korean soldiers arrived here guarding a carriage.

It was the Fourth Young Master Han Yu who got off the carriage.

Bai Yuan had previously reached a cooperation with him and promised to help him solve the disaster in Nanyang. Han Yu immediately reported to the King of Han and requested to come to Nanyang for disaster relief.

But this back and forth also wastes a lot of time.
