Ye Xuan first looked at his current attire. It seemed that this time, the system did not give him a big change of clothes. He was actually wearing his own casual clothes, which was incompatible with the people walking on the street.
Even so, Ye Xuan did not care much about it. With his current abilities, in this era, if he were to say something arrogant, he would be able to come and go as he pleased. Taking the head of a general from a million soldiers would be as easy as taking something out of his pocket. Why would he care about some strange looks?
"Look, that person is so weird. He is actually wearing a foreigner's clothes …"
"Yeah, look, he doesn't even have a braid. So ugly …"
"So ugly. He even dares to wear it on the street. Isn't he afraid of being arrested by the government …"
Walking out of the alley, Ye Xuan felt the passersby on the street were looking at him as if he was a monkey, and they were murmuring to each other. Ye Xuan was just about to walk over and ask where this place was, but these people dispersed as if they had seen a ghost, which made Ye Xuan quite depressed.
"You are the ugly ones. You are the ugly ones. What's so good about dragging a pig's tail?" Hearing those people's muttering, Ye Xuan could not help but twitch his mouth. He looked at the small stalls that were set up randomly on the street and frowned. This place was not even comparable to Foshan. Was this really the provincial city of Guangzhou? Was he being played by the system again?
Raising his eyebrows, Ye Xuan looked around as he walked. Finally, he saw a restaurant by the side of the road. He lifted his leg and walked in.
"Ah, sir, sir, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. This restaurant is full today. Please find another restaurant!" When Ye Xuan walked into the restaurant, the waiter who was originally slapping flies saw Ye Xuan walk in. He was shocked and hurriedly walked up to him with a smile.
"Oh?" Hearing the waiter's words, Ye Xuan could not help but raise his eyebrows. This restaurant did not seem to be doing very well. Ye Xuan did not go up to the second floor. However, on this floor alone, there were more than half of the tables that were not occupied. Why did this waiter say that it was full?
"Where is this restaurant? I have been in many times, but they always chase the customers away. This is the first time I've seen it. Brother Xiao Er, do I look like someone who can't afford to pay for a meal? " With that said, Ye Xuan shook his right hand, and a small piece of silver horn appeared in his hand. He threw it towards the waiter.
"Hey, hey, hey. Sir, sir, sir. I really didn't mean it like that. Please take the money back. My restaurant is really full now and I can't serve you. If you want to eat, there is a Jade Restaurant 200 meters ahead. The dishes there are authentic, crispy and delicious. Please take a few more steps! "To Ye Xuan's surprise, the waiter caught the silver that Ye Xuan had tossed over in a flurry. Not only did he not put it away, but he also hurriedly stuffed it back into Ye Xuan's hand. He pointed in a direction in front of him and pleaded to Ye Xuan with a bitter face.
Ye Xuan frowned as he looked at the waiter who was on the verge of tears, then glanced at the customers and the innkeeper behind the counter. If the waiter looked down on him. Then Ye Xuan could directly use force, but since the waiter was begging nicely, Ye Xuan couldn't get angry at him. After all, he wasn't a person who bullied the weak.
"Alright, since you want to push the business, then I can't do anything about it." Then there's nothing I can do. "Ye Xuan did not want to make things difficult for others. He shook his head and put the silver away.
Seeing that Ye Xuan was about to leave, the waiter beamed with joy and bowed. "Thank you, sir. Thank you. Take care, take care!"
"Oh right, Brother Xiao Er, is this the provincial capital of Guangzhou?" Ye Xuan, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped, startling the waiter. He thought that Ye Xuan still wanted to enter the restaurant.
"Yes!" The waiter nodded in a daze. He looked at Ye Xuan with a strange expression. He didn't even know where he was. Was this person an idiot?
"Thank you!" As long as he knew that the system didn't throw him somewhere else, Ye Xuan thanked the waiter and turned to leave.
"Oh my, oh my god, I was scared to death. If I let that fake foreigner in, who knows when the White Lotus Society would come looking for trouble in the restaurant."
"That's right, Xiao Hu, you did well. Fortunately, you were smart this time. Otherwise, if the White Lotus Society knew that your restaurant had a fake foreigner, you wouldn't be able to do business anymore."
…
"White Lotus Society?!" Ye Xuan was curious why the waiter was trying so hard to stop him from entering when there was clearly a table. Therefore, after he left, he used his mental power to cover the restaurant and eavesdrop on their conversation. He didn't expect to hear that it was because of an evil sect.
When he was watching the movie, Ye Xuan had also read the plot. Naturally, he knew that the main plot of the movie was about Huang Fei-hung fighting the White Lotus Society of Guangzhou.
Speaking of which, the White Lotus Cult could be said to be very famous in history. It had already begun to appear in the Southern Song Dynasty. However, during the Yuan Dynasty, in order to resist the rule of the Yuan Dynasty, it was classified as a cult by the Yuan government. For example, the famous founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, was once a member of the Ming Cult, which was ranked as a cult. Monk Peng, one of the Five Wanderers of the Ming Cult in Mr. Jin Yong's novel, was also a member of the White Lotus Cult. There were also people like Wang Cong 'er and Yao Zhifu of the Qing Dynasty. They were all heroes who resisted the brutal rule during the change of dynasties.
On the other hand, the White Lotus Cult at this time, under the guise of a fake deity descending to the mortal world, violently expropriating their wealth, burning and killing everything related to foreigners without distinguishing between right and wrong. Regardless of whether it was foreigners or Hua Xia people who had returned from studying abroad, their methods were extremely cruel. The Cult Master, Zhenren Jiugong, even used an iron plate in front of his body to disguise himself. He claimed that he was invulnerable to weapons and could enter the Void Hometown of the Ajati Matriarch after his death. This caused the ignorant cult members to foolishly face death when faced with the foreign guns.
Just as Ye Xuan was about to find another place to enter, a group of people suddenly ran forward. As they ran, they shouted, "The White Lotus Cult has opened a altar in the telegraph office. Everyone, go and pay your respects!"
Along with these shouts, many people who were originally eating, buying, and selling stopped eating. One by one, they all ran forward like ducks being chased.
Looking at the crowd running forward and the messy street they left behind, Ye Xuan could not help but frown. It seemed that the White Lotus Cult was more capable than he had imagined. No wonder even the current Guangzhou government could not do anything to them.
"Alright, then I'll go and see what this White Lotus Cult is capable of!" After making up his mind, Ye Xuan quickened his pace and walked towards the place where those people had left.
