Yuan Tu's loud exclamation was enough to surprise the workers all around him.
"You can't be Lin Mu!?" Yuan Tu shouted.
"It's been a while, Uncle Yuan Tu." Lin Mu said in response. "But it really is me. You remember my father, but forgot me?"
"How… how can this be?" Yuan Tu felt his world flipping.
'It's not possible… the boy should be dead…' Yuan Tu recalled the many soldiers that had come asking about Lin Mu in the past.
He had been questioned along with many others. They were then told that Lin Mu had done some great crime and was wanted dead or alive. It had stunned the peasants, but Yuan Tu was pleased.
And over the years, there was no news or information about Lin Mu either. The wanted notice also disappeared after a while and couldn't be seen in the town either, making Yuan Tu think that Lin Mu must have either been caught or killed by now.
But seeing him alive and not just well, but thriving, left him utterly astounded.
