Because of the above, a misunderstanding arose between the young girl Feifei and Ye Lang. In Feifei's mind, Ye Lang was a shameless and despicable pervert!

"Achoo..."

Ye Lang pinched his nose, stared ahead, and said blankly, "Could it be that I've caught a cold? No, it's not a cold. It must be that someone is thinking of me..."

At this moment, Ye Lang was sitting in a hired carriage on the road to the Holy City!

After dealing with Edward, Ye Lang left the City Lord's Mansion and immediately hired a carriage to leave. He had no intention of staying in Alexandria City, and he had already planned to leave that day.

While hiring a carriage, Ye Lang once again realized the truth of the saying "for a woman, one must betray one's brothers," because he discovered that Edward had led him far astray. Alexandria City and the Holy City were not even on the same route; they were in opposite directions!

That driver who took so much money from me before, and then lied to me, must have been bribed by that dark-skinned guy!

I curse you both: may one of you drive into a latrine, and may the other remain black, at least never recovering to normal, and be even blacker than a person!

"Ahhh, who's so heartless as to dig a latrine here?! Why aren't you covering it up yet...?" A coachman, along with his coachman, fell into a latrine that was about to be repaired.

And this coachman seems to be the one Ye Lang cursed...

"Is that bastard Ye Lang playing a trick on me? Three months have passed, why haven't I recovered to my original appearance yet?" Edward was dark-skinned three months later, said. At this time, he was a healthy-looking dark-skinned man, just a little darker than the average person.

But Edward always felt uncomfortable, perhaps because he was intimidated by the dark skin!

It seems that most of the people cursed by Ye Lang will suffer tragic fates, and their curses will come true. This makes people afraid to let Ye Lang say anything, in case he comes true and it will be troublesome.

"Young Master, there seems to be something going on ahead. I'll go check it out. You wait here." As the carriage passed a place where a large crowd had gathered, the driver went to inquire.

"Oh, then go ahead!" Ye Lang replied casually.

Soon, the driver came running back, rushing as if he were fleeing for his life...

"What happened?" Ye Lang asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Young Master, there's a group of refugees ahead who are looting food. We'd better take a detour." The coachman jumped onto the carriage, preparing to go around them.

"Refugees?" Ye Lang was stunned for a moment. This term seemed very distant to him. He had never seen one, neither in his original world nor in his current one.

Especially in this world, he has always been active in the highest levels of society and has never come into contact with this level, so he has even less chance to see it!

In fact, there will be refugees in any world. Natural disasters are an unavoidable problem, and some people seem to have said that where there is a natural disaster, there will inevitably be a man-made one.

Man-made disasters seem even more terrifying than natural disasters!

"No need to take a detour, let's go and take a look!" Ye Lang said calmly. His calm tone made people wonder what his motive was. Was it because he had never seen refugees before, because he was just having fun, or because he had a compassionate heart and wanted to help the refugees in front of him?

However, for whatever reason, the coachman would say the same thing, "Young Master, don't go over there. There's nothing to see here. I know you Young Master masters haven't seen this before and are curious to see it! But it's best not to see it. Once those refugees find you, you won't be able to get away."

This driver had traveled all over the country for many years and had seen similar situations before. He knew that although these refugees were pitiful, they also had their hateful aspects!

Among these refugees, some will disregard the advice of others and harm wealthy people in order to steal their belongings or food.

The situation before our eyes is a perfect example: they are robbing food, and if their needs are not met, even more terrible things may happen. This is the main reason why the driver is trying to avoid them.

"I know that, but I still want to go and take a look. You can go first, it's okay." Ye Lang waved his hand, then jumped out of the carriage, letting the driver go first.

The coachman frowned, looking at Ye Lang with great incomprehension. He couldn't understand what this young nobleman was up to. Was he playing those games of heroism? If so, he didn't need to accompany him and would rather leave as soon as possible.

However, based on his interactions with Ye Lang along the way, the coachman seemed to think that Ye Lang was not the kind of person who would act like a hero. This noble Young Master was different from other spoiled brats; he had always been low-key and had never used his status to bully anyone.

However, sometimes he would throw money at people, but usually the people who were hit left happily because Ye Lang was too generous!

That's why the driver hesitated. He thought about staying; there might be interesting things happening, and he might become a celebrity—though it was just a feeling!

However, this temptation was accompanied by the threat of death, leaving the coachman torn between his own Celestial Person own desires...

Ye Lang paid no attention to the driver's expression. He simply stood quietly on the road, bathed in the setting sun, with Xiao Rui by his side, watching the out-of-control refugees who were merely fighting over the food they needed!

This scene inevitably evokes images of death, a scene straight out of hell...

"Roar... There's another one over there..." At this moment, someone shouted from the group of refugees, drawing the attention of those refugees on the periphery who had no chance, or rather, a very small chance, of getting food, to Ye Lang.

Then, a large number of refugees rushed towards Ye Lang, jostling and pushing, not wanting to lose their initial advantage!

"Ah, Young Master, run!!" Provoked by the coachman's words, he immediately fled, his earlier hesitation vanishing, for he had already made his choice!

Of course, as a responsible coachman, he did call out to Ye Lang, but whether Ye Lang escaped or not was another matter.

"You go first!" Ye Lang said, but the coachman had already driven the carriage quite far away. Whether his words reached the coachman's ears is another matter.

"Quick, don't let that carriage get away! Don't worry about this kid for now!" The group of refugees were a little anxious after they realized the carriage had run away. Ye Lang and Xiao Rui were of little use to them; what they wanted was the contents of the carriage.

They believed there must be something in the carriage, and even if Ye Lang and his companion had food on them, it would be limited to just a little bit!

Also, even if the carriage is empty, it still has two horses!
