Chapter 509 Life and Dao

"Should I have seen it?" Miss Xue said confidently.

Jiang Yang didn't answer, just walked outside.

Then I heard the voice of the other party chasing up and answering from behind: "I have seen it, but it has been destroyed, and there are only dead people."

Jiang Yang's gaze sank slightly, and his footsteps paused.

"Let's go." He continued to walk forward.

……

Over the past few days, Jiang Xia has recovered a lot after a period of renovation.

The traces of the flames of war are almost gone, and many streets have taken on a new look.

Outside Xu's mansion, the old tree that fell by the roadside was also lifted up, and now it has bloomed new flowers.

"Master Jiang." A few carriages parked outside the Xu residence, and the old groom waited outside.

"Are you going on a trip? Where do you want to go?"

Ever since they knew that Jiang Yang was a disciple of "Soldier Lord Tianshuang" and that he was a young innate strongman, everyone in the Xu family respected him very much.

"Thank you." Jiang Yang got into the carriage, "We are going to visit the bustling area."

"Okay!"

The Xu family's mansion is located in the east of the city, built along the hills, directly below is the wealthy Jiangxia district where there are many villas.

On the avenue of Kangzhuang, luxurious carriages and horses pass by. Looking down the hillside, there are many manors and houses neatly distributed like a chessboard.

Driving all the way, just passing the old man's residence.

The red-painted gate was closed tightly, and there were no guards outside the gate. The leaves of the eucalyptus tree in the yard were withered, and it seemed that no one had taken care of them for a while.

Jiang Yang took a look and asked, "Which family...?"

"That's the former Yang family." The old coachman said, "Master Jiang, do you know him?"

"Yeah, them?" Jiang Yang frowned.

The old coachman then smiled and said: "They seem to have been promoted. I heard that Mr. Yang went to the capital with the Ninth Prince. He just had a housewarming wine a while ago."

"Really?" Jiang Yang frowned, then heaved a sigh of relief and laughed.

His eyes fell on the mansion next door again.

That mansion is now even more depressed.

He watched the old tree branches sticking out of the wall in the courtyard where no one had pruned.

"What are you looking at?" Miss Xue looked up curiously.

"It's all about missing the old man." Jiang Yang's eyes turned back as the chariots and horses moved forward, "There used to be a man named Song Huaian living there."

"Is that your friend?"

"It is."

"Then why don't you go find him?"

"People are the same as before, but their hearts are not as good as before." Jiang Yang shook his head.

The wheels outside the window rumbled forward until the entire courtyard was gone.

Jiang Yang withdrew his gaze and looked into the distance through the curtain of the car.

Cars and horses drove through the avenue lined with Luanshu trees, and the number of people in front gradually increased.

The neighborhood in front of him seemed to be more prosperous than when Jiang Yang came here.

"A lot of people!" Miss Xue couldn't help exclaiming.

The old coachman laughed and said: "Since our Jiangxia was rebuilt, there have been more and more people."

"Don't look at the smooth road now, let's go for a while, and we won't be able to take a carriage when we get to Kowloon Commercial Street."

"why?"

"In those streets, people are next to each other, and you may not be able to get out easily when you get off the bus."

Jiang Yang wondered suddenly: "Are there so many people?"

"It's more than that!" The old coachman explained with a smile, "Everyone outside is saying that our country of Ye, other than the capital, is the safest place."

"What kind of statement is this?" Jiang Yang asked with a smile.

The old coachman said: "Think about it, our Jiangxia survived the war. At the beginning, the capital of the Yuezhi Kingdom came to the city, but within a few days, the army was defeated like a mountain. Then there was a riot about Wushengjiao, and you know the result."

"So now it's rumored outside that Jiangxia is a place where outstanding people come out in large numbers. No, many people from various prefectures, cities, and even other prefectures in the surrounding area have come to us."

"Especially those who descended from the gods. Don't underestimate these people. They don't look like many. If you really want to get together, you have to blow up the pot."

"This has to be entrusted to a few guarded masters, and that Lord Sword Immortal."

"If it weren't for them, we Jiangxia wouldn't be able to have such prosperity."

"Hey!" The old coachman looked at the crowds of people in front of him, "Master Jiang, Miss Xue, I can only send you here."

"There are too many people in front, but there is no way to pass the car. If you want to go shopping on Kowloon Commercial Street, this old man will wait for you here."

"It's work."

The two got out of the car, and on the street, at a glance, the dark crowd was surging like an ocean, which really shocked Ms. Xue.

Looking at her appearance, Jiang Yang recalled that he had the same expression when he first came here, and he explained: "Most of the population of the entire Huzhou is here, but the real crowds are only in these few streets. "

"I just think they are so weak." Miss Xue said, "If they are placed in the Moyuan Palace, they are not even qualified to be servants."

She suddenly lost interest: "No matter how many there are, it's no different from watching swarms of ants crawling on the ground."

She immediately looked at Jiang Yang, with a bit of a smile: "Actually, I have never understood why the strong of you humans always like to protect the weak."

"In my opinion, it's like protecting a few ant nests that can be destroyed if you step on them carelessly."

Jiang Yang stopped and looked at the other party: "Actually, I don't understand either."

"But no matter what, when I see the weak being bullied, there will always be an inexplicable impulse in my heart. In the face of disasters and catastrophes, I will always want to do my part."

"I think that's why the way I chose is not the magic way."

He looked at the other side and said, "Some people are born like this, and they don't need any reason."

His eyes flickered, he thought for a while and said: "If you really want to find a reason, as the saying goes, 'the way of heaven is to make up for what is damaged', you should regard it as the process of seeking the Tao."

"Seeking Tao?" Miss Xue's eyes were burning, "Is it to become stronger?"

"I think I understand."

"It's just that this way seems to be completely different from our magic way."

Jiang Yang smiled when he heard the words: "Maybe your understanding is different from mine."

"But take it as understanding."

Miss Xue asked, "Then... is it so interesting?"

"Interesting?" Jiang Yang shook his head again, "I don't know what it means to be interesting."

"But by your standards, probably boring."

"Forget it." Miss Xue shook her head.

Jiang Yang looked at her with some amusement: "Why, is it possible that if it's interesting, you plan to join the righteous way?"

Miss Xue curled her lips: "I can't choose about my birth, but can't I decide which way to choose?"

"Anyway, the magic way can't tolerate me, why can't you find something new to try?"

"If this girl is interested, it's okay."
