I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 90 Are You That Kind of Person?

Chapter 90 Are You That Kind of Person?
Taking advantage of the fact that it was just getting dark, Xia Yuan came out of the forest and moved forward quickly.

Although I don't have a cell phone and can't know the exact time, judging from the time the sun sets, it's no more than 8 o'clock now.

As long as you walk faster, I believe there will be many shops open when you reach the county towns around Qingjiang City.

Fortunately, no one was seen along the way, so Xia Yuan could run without restraint.

After about an hour, he began to slow down.

This was because he could already see passers-by walking in front of him, and soon he walked in front of an old man who was taking a walk.

"Excuse me, where is this place?"

The old man looked at the young man who was asking questions in front of him, and his whole body was in tatters.

He was originally quite wary, but after seeing the face clearly, his expression improved a lot. In addition, Xia Yuan spoke quite politely, so he did not refuse to answer.

"This place is Jianping County. What's the matter, young man? Don't you have a cell phone?"

This is also the main reason why the old man is alert. Why are there still people asking where you are from these days?

Even if an old man like him knows that a mobile phone can be used to check a location, is there anyone who doesn’t have a mobile phone nowadays?

Xia Yuan noticed the old man's vigilance, smiled awkwardly, and took out his cell phone to show him.

"Uncle, my phone is turned off, and this is my first time here."

Unexpectedly, when the old man heard this, a look of understanding appeared on his face, and combined with his outfit, he seemed to have thought of something.

"Young man, you are that kind of person, right?"

"???"

Xia Yuan was full of questions. What kind of person am I?
Wait, could it be that he saw that I was a master?
No way? Any old man asking for directions on the street would notice I was different.

Could it be that after this advancement, his temperament has changed so much?
Or maybe this old man is actually a master, which is why he can see through him at a glance.

Xia Yuan was alert in his heart, as expected, there were other extraordinary people in this world.

"Master, you."

Before he could finish, the old man interrupted him.

"Don't worry, I've probably already guessed it."

"I've seen a lot of people like you over the years."

Have you seen it a lot?

Holy shit, there are so many people like me in this world?
You wouldn’t know if you didn’t go out and see, but once you went out you found out so much useful information.

The masters really are among the people!

But judging from the old man's tone, he should not be a supernatural being. But how did he determine his own identity?
"Yes, I am that kind of person. How did you tell that?"

The old man smiled, as if to say, "As expected."

"With your outfit and your phone dead, you must be heading towards Nanshan City."

"I guessed it right away. I've lived here for many years and have seen a lot."

"They came out looking almost the same as you, but they were in better condition than you. You looked a little miserable."

"But I admire the courage of people like you, daring to cross the no-man's land alone. Although there is a road there now, there are really not many people who can walk like you."

"When I was young, I wanted to be like you, but in the end I couldn't do it due to various reasons. Alas!"

"..."

After listening to the old man's explanation, a frown appeared on Xia Yuan's forehead.

He actually thought the old man had discovered his identity as a master. It turned out that the kind of person he was talking about was completely different from the kind of person he understood.

"I was wondering why I suddenly heard so much news about extraordinary people, and how an ordinary old man could see through my identity!"

Xia Yuan cursed inwardly, but luckily he didn't say much. He could now continue to follow the old man's lead. "Haha, yes, this has been my dream since I was a child!"

"It's great to be young. If I were a few years younger, I might be like you. But that's not possible now!"

"It's okay, sir. You don't have to experience many things in person. You've met many people like me here, which is also an experience."

"Haha, you are really good at talking, young man."

Xia Yuan then started chatting with the old man. He hadn't seen him for such a long time, and when he suddenly met someone, he couldn't help but want to talk for a while.

"Young man, how did you come up with the idea of traveling through the no-man's land alone? Most of the people I've seen before traveled in groups of several."

"As for me, I just wanted to relax and unwind because I lost my job. I also wanted to take a look at this beautiful scenery."

"As for my friends, they all have to work, so I can only come alone!"

The old man shook his head and continued:
"It's very dangerous to be alone. You're still so young. If anything happens to you, your family will be worried!"

"It's okay. My family members died a long time ago. I'm not married or have children, and I don't even have a partner, so I don't have any burdens. I can go wherever I want."

Hearing this, the old man was silent for a moment, and finally just sighed.

I'm afraid only those who have no ties would have the courage to do such a thing.

He had said before that if he were a few years younger, he would also go to the uninhabited area like these explorers, but could he really go?

At his age now, he has too many ties and often cannot do what he wants to do.

After all, people are not truly independent individuals. The older they get, the more aspects they need to consider when doing things.

People like Xia Yuan are only a minority after all. How many people can do what they want to do without considering anything like him?

Nine out of ten people can't do it.

However, I don’t know whether what these people are thinking about is freedom, or sadness and loneliness.

Probably both!

After all, there is no perfect solution for people and things in this world.

"Alright, uncle, I won't say any more. I need to hurry up and buy some clothes before the store closes."

After a moment of silence, Xia Yuan took the initiative to say goodbye. He had been talking with the old man for a long time, and if he didn't leave, the clothing store would probably be closed.

"Young man, you are still young and there are many places worth visiting. There is no need to go to such a dangerous place in the future."

Before leaving, the old man still comforted him.

"I understand, sir. I hope you live a long life. I'm leaving now. See you again if we're lucky."

Xia Yuan nodded. The old man meant well, so he didn't refute.

Turning around, he smiled. After all, there are more good people in the world. It is because of these people that this world is beautiful enough.

And the danger that the old man talked about?

For him, there are probably not many dangerous places on Earth.

The world is so big, where can’t we go?
……

After saying goodbye to the old man, Xia Yuan followed the direction he had just pointed out and headed towards the county town.

Soon, he arrived at the city center.

The streets are brightly lit and bustling with people coming and going.

Afterwards, Xia Yuan found a convenience store on the side of the road, told the owner, and finally charged his phone.
