Seeing that Emperor Jingjiang was so emotional, Lin Xiaofeng also restrained his smile, and said in a deep voice with a stern expression: "I will remember my father's teachings! I must act carefully, proceed steadily, and strive to return triumphantly as soon as possible!" His voice was full of firmness and determination, as if he was making a solemn promise to Emperor Jingjiang.
Hearing Lin Xiaofeng's promise, Emperor Jingjiang nodded with satisfaction, "Very good! Then go! You must remember to stay away from the battlefield. If Dexian can win a great victory and prevent the church from ever recovering, I believe his future achievements will definitely surpass mine." His voice was full of expectation and encouragement, as if he was seeing them off and cheering them up. And Lin Xiaofeng also responded with a smile: "It's too difficult to surpass father! In my eyes, no ancient saints or monarchs can compare to father!" Although he knew it was a compliment, Emperor Jingjiang was still secretly happy. But on the surface, he still solemnly warned: "Be careful."
Lin Xiaofeng also responded seriously: "I am sincere! How dare I lie? The wise and powerful monarchs in ancient times were just lonely people no matter how great their achievements and abilities were! But father is not!" His words were full of sincere emotions and admiration for Emperor Jingjiang, which made the old emperor stunned for a moment! His whole body was like an electric shock! Then the corners of his mouth slowly rose, revealing a relieved smile, "That's right... I am no longer a lonely person..." He murmured to himself, as if responding to Lin Xiaofeng's words, and as if sighing at his own luck and satisfaction.
Seeing the absent-minded look of Emperor Jingjiang, Lin Xiaofeng did not disturb him anymore, but silently looked at his wife Li Hanmiao. He took her hand and walked aside, whispering: "Madam, I'm going. Father likes Yangqu County, you should go and accompany him more often when you are free." His words were full of trust and dependence on his wife.
Li Hanmiao nodded gently and said softly, "Don't worry, I will." There was a firm light in her eyes, as if telling Lin Xiaofeng that she would take on this responsibility and take good care of their family and father.
Lin Xiaofeng continued, "There is another very important thing I want you to do." His expression became serious, as if what he was about to say was of great importance.
Li Hanmiao also looked at him nervously, waiting for his next words. "What's the matter?" she asked, her heart full of confusion and curiosity.
"There is a warehouse next to the east wing of the house," Lin Xiaofeng said slowly, "which contains the memorials I wrote. Ten days after I go to sea...don't say ten days, but a month. You take one memorial from the warehouse every day and present it to father in the evening." He explained every detail of the matter in detail, fearing that there would be any mistakes.
"What is that memorial?" Li Hanmiao asked curiously. She had never heard of this matter and didn't know what was written in these memorials.
"This is the memorial of greeting I wrote," Lin Xiaofeng explained. "I wrote it for more than half a year, which is enough for you to submit a different memorial for two years in a row. The warehouse has sorted them into categories, including those for the New Year and other festivals. Remember to submit them in order, don't submit them randomly." There was a gentleness and care in his voice, as if he was telling Li Hanmiao the importance of the matter.
Hearing this, Li Hanmiao couldn't help but feel a little surprised and moved, "You are going to go to sea, is it necessary to do this?" She asked in some confusion, her heart full of care and reluctance for her husband. She knew that Lin Xiaofeng often wrote love letters and said love words to her when he was young, but this habit was broken after a few years of marriage. Now Lin Xiaofeng works overtime every day until late at night, but he is more attentive to his father. Even when he goes to sea, he has to leave a warehouse of greetings, for fear of breaking this filial piety! This makes her feel extremely admired and moved! It also makes her more determined to support her husband! No matter where he goes or what decision he makes, she will silently stand behind him, support him, and encourage him! Because they are husband and wife! They are partners who will go through life hand in hand! Whether it is rainy or sunny, they will stick to each other and never leave! This is her promise and oath to Lin Xiaofeng! It is also her firmness and persistence in this relationship!
After a heartfelt farewell, Lin Xiaofeng boarded the warship. As the whistle sounded, the fleet gradually left the port. Li Dexian stood at the stern, looking at the figure standing at the port with an unclear expression, his expression was a little gloomy. Although they had made full preparations, the sadness of parting was still unavoidable.
"It's so windy, but Father is still standing there." Lin Xiaofeng gently patted Li Dexian on the back, trying to comfort him. They all knew how high the old emperor's expectations of them were, and they would do their best to live up to his expectations.
"Your Majesty, don't worry too much," Lin Xiaofeng continued, "If we return triumphantly soon, your father will be very happy." His voice was full of firmness and determination, as if conveying a kind of strength and belief to Li Dexian.
Li Dexian nodded, took a deep breath, and then turned to look at Lin Xiaofeng, "Have you prepared a self-defense gift for me?" He asked with a smile, trying to
On the boundless sea, the sun shines like a golden fire, warmly illuminating the sea surface. The sparkling sea water is like a huge mirror, quietly reflecting the blue sky and the occasional white clouds drifting leisurely.
A majestic ironclad ship cuts through the waves, its bow cutting through the seawater, making a hissing sound. On the deck, Li Dexian and Lin Xiaofeng lie comfortably on specially made rattan chairs, wearing light linen shirts, and straw hats gently cover their foreheads, bringing them a touch of coolness. The sea breeze blows gently, and the corners of their clothes dance in the wind.
On both sides of the boat, two sturdy fishing rods stand like two determined soldiers in the sea breeze. The fishing lines sway gently in the sea breeze, as if telling the story of the sea.
Suddenly, the fishing line on one of the fishing rods suddenly became tight, and the fishing rod began to vibrate violently, making a buzzing sound.
Li Dexian was instantly awakened from his leisurely state. He quickly took off his straw hat, his eyes flashing with excitement, and tightly grasped the fishing rod. Lin Xiaofeng, who was standing next to him, lifted his straw hat slightly and glanced at Li Dexian with a contemptuous smile.
He looked at the crude fishing rod with disdain in his heart. In his eyes, this crude fishing rod was just like an iron rod with a line tied to it and a fish hook on the end of the line. The fish in the sea were so big, and this "fishing rod" without a fishing reel was just child's play.
Although Li Dexian was smart, he was still far from being an expert at fishing. Although he had occasionally caught fish before, that was just the luck of a novice. Lin Xiaofeng thought to himself that this time Li Dexian might return empty-handed.
However, what happened next was beyond Lin Xiaofeng's expectations. Li Dexian's face flushed, and he started a fierce tug-of-war with the big fish in the sea. He pressed his feet tightly against the deck, held the fishing rod tightly with both hands, and concentrated all his strength on his arms. He staggered and was almost dragged into the sea by the big fish.
Seeing this, the surrounding Jinyiwei wanted to come forward to help, but were stopped by Li Dexian, who shouted: "Don't come over! Watch how I deal with this disobedient fish!" His voice was full of determination and confidence.
After saying that, he took out a shiny revolver from his arms in front of Lin Xiaofeng's astonished eyes! After six shots, all the bullets were fired, and the sea surface was immediately dyed red.
Li Dexian laughed proudly: "Pull it up, we will have sashimi for lunch today." His smile was full of the pride and joy of a winner.
However, Lin Xiaofeng's face turned livid. He looked at the dolphin riddled with bullet holes, and his heart was filled with anger and dissatisfaction. He couldn't help but scold, "Your Majesty, why are you doing this? How can you kill such a spiritual creature at will?" His voice was full of reproach and disappointment.
"It's just a fish." Li Dexian sat back in his chair without caring, put on a straw hat to block the sunlight, "When can we reach the holy city? I want to go to Feka to rest first." He changed the subject, unwilling to continue discussing this sensitive issue.
Lin Xiaofeng looked into the distance, his eyes showing a tired look. He sighed: "Please bear with it, Your Majesty. According to the sea chart, we are not far from the Holy City." There was a hint of comfort and encouragement in his voice.
During this long sea journey, both of them experienced too much fatigue and waiting. But fortunately, they are not far from their destination, and they are about to end this journey and start a new adventure.
"Lao Lin, how big do you think this world is? Are there other continents? Can there be a country that can compete with our Jingjiang?" Li Dexian suddenly asked, his eyes flashing with curiosity about the unknown world and desire to explore.
Lin Xiaofeng pondered for a moment and shook his head: "Your Majesty, this world is completely different from what we know. The continents are separated by the ocean, and the spread of technology and culture is greatly restricted. Unless we have ocean-going technology, it is difficult for both sides to communicate on a large scale. Therefore, it may take hundreds of years longer than on Earth to develop into a modern civilization." His tone revealed a deep helplessness and emotion, "And our fleet has been sailing west for a long time, and we have not heard of any news of human activities on other continents."
"Maybe there are other continents, but they are closed and self-sufficient, and are far from being able to compete with our Jingjiang." Li Dexian raised his eyebrows, his tone full of confidence and domineering, "If such a place really is discovered by others, wouldn't we be at the mercy of others?" There was a hint of cunning and ambition in his eyes.
Lin Xiaofeng nodded: "Indeed, it will most likely lead to a tragic massacre." His tone was full of heaviness and worry, as if he had foreseen the bloodiness and cruelty of the future.
Li Dexian suddenly laughed: "Oh, why don't we send people to explore it earlier. Wouldn't it be a good thing to influence them with our benevolent and righteous army?" His smile was full of arrogance.
Lin Xiaofeng hesitated to speak, and finally said: "Your Majesty is right, but the time is not yet ripe." He reminded Li Dexian to take into account the factor of microorganisms, "The isolated continent must have its own ecosystem. The invasion of foreign species may cause catastrophic consequences such as plague. Such consequences are far more cruel than guns." His tone was full of worry and warning.
Li Dexian narrowed his eyes: "Plague? Yes, why didn't I think of it. Our medical school can study microorganisms and create plague weapons. Isn't this a way to win without fighting?" His thoughts jumped quickly, as if he had seen the dawn of victory.
Lin Xiaofeng's heartbeat quickened, thinking that his thoughts were jumping too fast! He said seriously: "Your Majesty, this move is against the harmony of heaven, and will inevitably be condemned by both humans and gods, and will damage the dignity of the royal family. Moreover, the plague is not something we can completely control." His tone was full of determination and opposition.
Li Dexian waved his hand: "I'm just talking casually, look how nervous you are." There was a joking and teasing tone in his words, "And look, the port is just ahead!" His whole body shook, and he jumped up immediately, looking straight ahead.
A port suddenly appeared in the distance, and several small boats were floating on the sea, as if waiting for their arrival. At this moment, Li Dexian and Lin Xiaofeng felt unprecedented excitement and anticipation. They were about to set foot on a new land and start a new adventure and challenge!
Lin Xiaofeng was also delighted when he saw the port and the boat. Before they set out to sea, they had already sent a fleet to inform the port of the Holy City to prepare for the pick-up. Now they were finally going to end their long career at sea.
Lin Xiaofeng immediately called the crew members and asked them to compare the charts. After careful examination, the crew members said confidently: "This is the port we built in Jingjiang. After stopping, we can go directly to the Holy City."
Li Dexian was so excited that he raised his hands and shouted, "Follow my orders and move forward at full speed!" Their fleet moved forward quickly like an arrow from a string, leaving behind the large group of people transporting goods. At this moment, there were only two thousand Jinyiwei armed escorts around them, demonstrating the majesty and momentum of the royal family.
The Holy City had been notified in advance. Gouweicaoer led the crowd to welcome the emperor, along with Pope Sojes and Master Wu. Everyone was looking forward to the arrival of Li Dexian and Lin Xiaofeng.
When Li Dexian and Lin Xiaofeng finally appeared outside the holy city, Gouweicaoer immediately took the initiative to step forward and kneel down to pay his respects: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!" His loud and firm voice conveyed his loyalty and respect for the royal family.
Li Dexian looked at the magnificent city in front of him with admiration and awe in his heart: "Is this the holy city? It is indeed extraordinary! Although the foreigners are vulnerable, they can build such a magnificent city, which is enough to demonstrate their strength and wisdom." His words revealed an attitude of appreciation and affirmation. "Gouweicaoer, please tell me the story of this city in detail." He developed a strong interest in the history and culture of this city and wanted to get to know and explore this strange country more deeply.
Father Sojes was also looking for Lin Xiaofeng in the crowd. When he saw Lin Xiaofeng, a smile immediately appeared on his face, as if he had met an old friend after a long absence. He stretched out his arms and hugged Lin Xiaofeng tightly: "My Lord, long time no see!"
Lin Xiaofeng also responded enthusiastically and reminisced with Father Sojies. They talked about each other's recent situation and experiences and shared each other's feelings and emotions. Luo Huajun and Xiang Xiehong also gathered in the crowd. When they saw Zhou Zhiwei, their eyes lit up as if they had seen their idol.
Luo Huajun trotted over to Zhou Zhiwei and said excitedly, "Master, long time no see!" His voice was full of admiration and excitement. Xiang Xiehong followed closely and greeted Zhou Zhiwei, expressing his respect and reverence for the master.
At this moment, Zhou Zhiwei stroked his beard and looked at these familiar people with a happy face. He didn't expect to meet them again here, and his heart was full of emotion and joy: "I didn't expect you to come here too?" His words revealed a kind and warm feeling, as if they had become a family at this moment.
However, at this moment, Luo Huajun looked around, licked his lips, and asked in a low voice: "Master, are there any brothels in this city?" His question stunned everyone around him, as if the air had frozen. But Zhou Zhiwei was not surprised at all, as if he had gotten used to such sudden questions.
He nodded, still maintaining a amiable smile on his face: "Yes, if you want to find a foreign woman, I know a good shop. There are local women from the Holy City and foreign women from Feka, all of whom are quite exotic. If you want to experience it, I can send someone to take you there." His voice was calm and gentle, as if he was talking about something very ordinary.
Luo Huajun's breathing became rapid, and his eyes flashed with excitement and anticipation: "I want to try the local ones." His voice was full of firmness and determination, as if he couldn't wait to experience that exotic custom.
After hearing this, Xiang Xiehong felt as if an arrow had shot him in the chest. He covered his chest, as if he had been betrayed! Everyone was obviously in the same state of depression, how come you suddenly became okay again? His face was full of astonishment and confusion, as if he could not accept this sudden blow.
However, the next second, Xiang Xiehong was relieved. There was even a hint of sympathy in his eyes, as if he had seen through Luo Huajun's heart: "Master, if you only lick it, can it be half price?" His voice was full of ridicule and mockery, as if he was using this method to cover up his inner loss and unwillingness.
Zhou Zhiwei, a man with a sharp eye like an eagle, can always see deep into people's hearts. He stands calmly, as if the troubles in the world have nothing to do with him. However, when he speaks, he always hits the nail on the head and gets to the heart of the matter.
On this day, Zhou Zhiwei, Xiang Xiehong and Luo Huajun gathered together to discuss whether to go to the West to see it. Luo Huajun's eyes were shining with desire, but Zhou Zhiwei's words broke it: "If you are not feeling well, you don't have to go. Those Western women don't take baths very often, be careful not to catch any disease."
Xiang Xiehong also came over in a hurry, his face full of concern: "Yes, Lao Luo, health is the most important thing. Look, you have already started to quit smoking, don't give up all your efforts because of curiosity."
Luo Huajun sighed, with a conflicted look on his face: "No! I'm addicted to cigarettes again, and I can't bear it. Besides, we are already here, how can we not go and see the strange things in the West? Don't you want to see them?" At this point, he showed a yearning look on his face, but then frowned, "But... if they really don't take a bath, it's really a bit unbearable..."
Just as the three of them were discussing, a loud shout came: "Stop talking, the emperor is here." Everyone turned around and saw the Emperor Jingjiang walking like a dragon and a tiger, with extraordinary momentum. He waved to everyone and led everyone into the city and headed straight for the Temple Mount.
Lin Xiaofeng and Li Dexian walked together, both of them looking around with great interest. Although they often read Western reports, seeing it with their own eyes was more shocking. Every time they saw a new building, they would stop to comment on it, with expressions of surprise and admiration on their faces.
The streets were jammed with people, and the atmosphere was very lively. Dogtail Grass came over and said, "Your Majesty, Lord, let's go to the temple quickly. I have prepared a place for you to stay. We will host a banquet for you after you have rested. How about visiting the holy city tomorrow?" His tone was respectful but enthusiastic.
Lin Xiaofeng looked back at the congested streets and the foreigners who were secretly watching from the side, nodded and said: "Your Majesty, let's go in first. These trivial matters are not worth worrying about. Let's come back tomorrow to see the results of Jingjiang's transformation of the holy city." Although his voice was calm, it revealed an unquestionable majesty.
Li Dexian also nodded solemnly in agreement. To be honest, what he saw now were just the "local specialties" of the foreigners. What he really needed to understand in depth was the people's hearts and the influence of Jingjiang. After all, the current Holy City was an important cornerstone of the Jingjiang War. If the old church caused trouble and the people's hearts were unstable, it would have a great impact on the war in Jingjiang.
The temple was bustling with busy people from Jingjiang. This was originally a sacred place for worshipping the gods, but now it has become a place to welcome the Emperor of Jingjiang. Hope and Duke Alvis stood in the hall waiting for the arrival of the Emperor of Jingjiang. They not only heard about the Emperor of Jingjiang, but also heard about the Marquis of Jianye who often appeared in the mouth of Gouweicaoer. The achievements and methods of this Marquis of Jianye seemed to be more brilliant than those of the emperor. Under the long-term influence of Gouweicaoer, both of them felt that this was the real top figure in Jingjiang who could call the wind and rain.
When Li Dexian, Lin Xiaofeng and others entered the temple, Gouweicaoer immediately winked at Hope and the others and introduced them loudly, then walked over quickly to translate for them. Hope and Duke Alvis immediately stepped forward to salute: "Your Majesty." Their voices were trembling but revealed a sincere respect.
Li Dexian said with a smile: "It's okay. I have heard of your names a long time ago. I am a guest here. You don't have to be polite. Come and have dinner with me today. We will chat while we eat." His voice was gentle but majestic, making people feel warm like a spring breeze. After that, he chatted and laughed with Pope Sojies again. They both nodded in response. The Duke of Alvis was secretly surprised. He didn't expect that the Emperor of Jingjiang would be so gentle and kind. It was completely beyond his expectations. After everyone sat down, the atmosphere gradually became warm. Li Dexian not only had an in-depth exchange of religious and faith issues with Pope Sojies, but also discussed Western business and trade with Hope and Duke Alvis. His erudition and insights impressed everyone present. Lin Xiaofeng also made jokes from time to time, adjusting the atmosphere with his humorous conversation, making the whole banquet full of laughter.
Tasting the black bread and stews carefully prepared by famous Western chefs, Li Dexian could not help but feel deeply moved. Although these foods are simple, they contain the simplicity and enthusiasm of Western people. He knows that if you want to truly understand a country, you must have a deep understanding of the lives and culture of its people. And today's home-cooked meal gave him a more intuitive and profound feeling about the West.
After the banquet, Li Dexian shook hands with everyone and said goodbye, expressing his expectations and confidence in future cooperation. He knew that the exchange and cooperation between Jingjiang and the West had just begun, and there was still a long way to go. But he believed that with the joint efforts of both sides, a better future would be created.
Li Dexian's eyes slowly moved from the food on the plate. The bread lay quietly on the side of the plate, and next to it was a pool of unknown substance that seemed deep and sticky. He reached out and picked up the bread hesitantly. However, the moment his fingers touched the bread, a strange feeling instantly came to his heart.
He knocked on the table lightly, but heard the sound of metal colliding, which made his face change suddenly. He looked up at Gouweicaoer, his face full of doubts: "Is this really bread?"
Dogtail Grass seemed calm and composed. She explained softly, "Your Majesty, this kind of bread is made from unleavened dough and is very hard. We usually soak it in vegetable soup and wait for it to soften before eating. This is the daily food of the people here."
Li Dexian turned his gaze to the pool of black substance again. He frowned and said, "What is this?"
"This seemingly inconspicuous stew is actually made by stewing beans and some meat together." Dogtail Grass explained in detail.
After hearing this, Li Dexian felt a little more at ease. He tried to dip the bread into the soup and put it into his mouth. However, when the food mixed with the smell of beans and mutton filled his mouth, his face instantly turned red. The taste was just like chewing swill mixed with sand.
He couldn't help but look at Lin Xiaofeng who was sitting next to him, only to see him eating the hard bread without any expression and drinking the suspicious-looking stew. Li Dexian swallowed his saliva and finally put down the food in his hand. He couldn't help but mutter in his heart, is this guy Lao Lin really that hungry?
However, Lin Xiaofeng was devastated at this moment. He had never eaten such unpalatable food before! Every bite was like torture. The smell of the internal organs in the stew and the smell of swill from the ingredients that seemed to have not been washed made him feel unbearable. However, he had an obsessive-compulsive disorder. Once he started eating, he couldn't stop. He swore in his heart that he would never eat this kind of thing again in his life!
Zhou Zhiwei sat next to him and smelled the disgusting smell of the food. His face was full of admiration: "Master, can you really eat this? I can't stand the smell alone."
Lin Xiaofeng responded hoarsely and somewhat weakly: "Stop talking."
Seeing this, Zhou Zhiwei quickly handed over a glass of wine: "Hurry up and drink a glass of wine to calm down."
After drinking the wine, Lin Xiaofeng let out a long sigh and sighed, "I really can't afford this kind of foreign stuff... By the way, where are those two guys Xiang Xiehong and Luo Huajun?"
"They said they wanted to go to the street to try the local specialties, so I asked someone to take them there. Someone will take them back in the evening," Zhou Zhiwei replied.
Lin Xiaofeng nodded and glanced at Li Dexian who was chatting happily with Hope and others. He whispered to Zhou Zhiwei, "How are you getting along with those foreigners?"
"The relationship is very good, sir. Do you have any instructions?" Zhou Zhiwei responded.
Lin Xiaofeng groaned for a moment and whispered, "Our goal this time is very clear. We will not give up until the Old Church is destroyed and the King of Hanjiang is captured. When your majesty and we have rested, you can send someone to deliver a declaration of war. Feika has been keeping a low profile and stationing troops for two years. This time we will transfer all the troops and supplies to the Holy City. When you come, I have already dispatched several ships to report to the Feika station."
He paused and continued, "They should be leaving in a few days. After that, we will inevitably have to pass through other countries. During this period, I don't want anything to happen. Do you have any difficulty in lobbying for the passage through various countries?"
"Master, don't worry. They have a good impression of Jingjiang, and we have had frequent exchanges of interests over the years. It is not difficult to use Jingjiang as a transit point to mobilize troops." Zhou Zhiwei answered confidently, "But I heard that the six major dioceses have sent many spies here. If we mobilize troops in such a high-profile manner, will it alert the enemy?"
After hearing this, Lin Xiaofeng smiled contemptuously: "So what if we alert the enemy? We will mobilize troops generously! Not only will you mobilize troops, you can also invite generals from other countries to watch the battle! This time, we will not only eradicate the scourge of the old church, but also let overseas countries see the true national strength of Jingjiang!"
After hearing this, Zhou Zhiwei nodded and agreed: "Okay, Master. I understand."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Dexian's wild laughter came from the side. Hope said to Li Dexian with a respectful look on his face: "Your Majesty, you are really a business genius! This chain operation method is really amazing! I, Hope, have been doing business for so many years, but I have never come up with such a sophisticated way of cooperation! I am really ashamed of myself!"
"Hahaha!" Li Dexian raised his glass with a red face and said happily, "You really have a good eye! I have another way to raise chickens with basketballs! Come on, let me tell you in detail!"
The night grew darker, but the laughter and joy in the temple lingered for a long time.
The next morning, when the first rays of sunlight shone into the temple, Li Dexian was already walking around anxiously. His forehead was slightly sweaty and he looked very anxious. He had agreed with Lao Lin yesterday to go to the construction site of the community in Jingjiang today, but when he woke up in the morning, he found that Lao Lin was gone!
Li Dexian had sent many people to look for him, but after almost an hour, there was still no news. He felt a great panic enveloping him. How could Lao Lin disappear without a word? In this foreign country, was he assassinated?
The more he thought about it, the more scared he became. Finally, he stopped. He couldn't help but yell at the Jinyiwei guarding the door: "All of you go and find him! Don't just stand here! Bring Jianye Hou back to me!"
Before he finished speaking, Gouweicaoer hurried in and reported, "Your Majesty! Marquis Jianye has been found!"
"Where is it!" There was an undisguised tremor in Li Dexian's voice.
"In the toilet." Dogtail Grass replied, "Marquis Jianye has had diarrhea for almost an hour! He asked you to wait for him for a while."
Li Dexian heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. He slapped his thigh and said, "This old Lin! He must have eaten those swill-like things yesterday and got an upset stomach! He has been having diarrhea for an hour and still can't defecate? Take me to the toilet! Find a doctor!"
In the toilet, Lin Xiaofeng was sweating and pale. He squatted on the toilet, holding a roll of toilet paper tightly in his hand. Although he was in a prominent position now, he still brought toilet paper with him when he went out to sea just in case.
This morning, he was ready to go out. But he suddenly felt a severe stomachache, so he squatted in the toilet for an hour. It must be the poor meal he ate yesterday that upset his delicate stomach!
By now, his legs were numb from squatting, but when he stood up, his stomach still hurt so much that he didn't know when it would get better.
Just as Lin Xiaofeng was sighing inwardly, three loud noises suddenly came from next door. Lin Xiaofeng was startled and cursed without thinking: "Who the hell farted! You scared me! Did you stuff firecrackers in your ass?"
"Master, why are you here?" A familiar voice suddenly came from next door.
"Luo Huajun?" Lin Xiaofeng asked puzzledly.
"It's me, master! What's wrong with you? I heard you have been squatting for a long time?" Luo Huajun replied with a hint of weakness in his voice.
Lin Xiaofeng sighed weakly: "Alas...food poisoning."
"I think I have food poisoning too." Luo Huajun said gloomily, "These foreigners are so unhygienic! I feel like they didn't even wash the food!"
"Damn it! I knew they didn't wash it! What did you eat yesterday?" Lin Xiaofeng asked angrily. He now hated yesterday's food.
"I... I ate boiled pork slices." Luo Huajun replied, with a hint of grievance in his voice, "That's not our Jingjiang cuisine at all! It's too fishy! And there's sand in it!"
"What! There are places selling boiled pork slices in the Holy City? Have our Jingjiang dishes spread so far? Are they authentic?" Lin Xiaofeng asked in surprise. His curiosity temporarily overwhelmed the pain in his stomach.
"It's not Jingjiang cuisine... It's too disgusting! There's sand in it!" Luo Huajun lamented again, "Master, I'm leaving first."
"Yeah... got it..." Lin Xiaofeng said weakly. He no longer had the energy to blame Luo Huajun and just wanted to end this painful ordeal as soon as possible.
Outside the toilet, Li Dexian was waiting anxiously. Only Xiang Xiehong was with him, and his face was full of worry. It had been an hour! Lao Lin was still squatting inside, the situation was not optimistic!
At this time, Luo Huajun opened the door of the toilet and walked out. He took a deep breath of fresh air outside, "Refreshing!" He exclaimed. This fresh air made him feel the joy of rebirth.
After saying that, he looked at Xiang Xiehong and asked in confusion: "Old Xiang, we went to eat together, how come you are okay?"
After hearing this, Xiang Xiehong smiled and replied, "I just pulled the button."
After hearing this, Luo Huajun was speechless. He sighed, "You are such a fucking rich man..." He shook his head and suddenly saw Li Dexian out of the corner of his eye. He quickly saluted and said, "Your Majesty!"
Li Dexian asked with a dark face: "How is Lao Lin doing in there?" What he was most concerned about now was Lao Lin's physical condition.
Luo Huajun slapped his forehead and answered seriously: "He has food poisoning and is still having diarrhea! From the sound of his voice, he is very weak and may be dehydrated!" When he said this, his face was full of worry.
Li Dexian immediately became nervous after hearing this. He strode to the door of the toilet, slammed the door, and shouted: "Lao Lin! Come out quickly! I've brought a doctor here!" His voice was full of anxiety and worry.
"I haven't finished pooping yet! Don't talk to me!" Lin Xiaofeng yelled inside, his voice had become very weak. Obviously, the food poisoning had a great impact on him.
After hearing this, Li Dexian became even more worried. He stood at the door, lingering and anxiously waiting for Lao Lin to come out. He prayed silently in his heart: Lao Lin, Lao Lin, please don't be in any trouble!
After a while, Lin Xiaofeng staggered out of the simple toilet. His face was as pale as paper, and his body was so weak that he seemed to be blown down by a gust of wind. He held on to the wall tightly, his legs trembling like sieves, and cold sweat on his forehead. To him, squatting in that primitive squatting pit for a long time was no different from torture.
When Li Dexian saw him like this, he quickly ran over to support him, his face full of worry: "Xiaofeng, why did you eat that swill? Look at you, your body is like this. Just rest here for a day, I'll go out and look for some information."
After hearing this, Lin Xiaofeng pursed his dry lips, smiled bitterly and replied, "Your Majesty, that's not swill, it's Western food. I'm fine, I just feel a little uncomfortable suddenly. I'll be fine after drinking some salt water and taking a short rest. We can't stop, we have to keep going."
He paused, looked at Li Dexian seriously and said, "Your Majesty, I want to ask you for a favor."
Li Dexian nodded and motioned for him to continue.
Lin Xiaofeng continued, "Once we defeat the King of Han River, we will make sure all those Western countries install toilets. This kind of squatting is really inhumane."
Li Dexian's eyelids jumped when he heard this. Looking at Lin Xiaofeng's serious expression, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Lin Xiaofeng really has a special liking for toilets. He didn't forget to mention toilets at this time. But he also understood Lin Xiaofeng's thoughts. After all, in modern society, toilets have become a part of life.
Half an hour later, everyone was ready. Li Dexian supported the still weak Lin Xiaofeng and walked forward together. Dogtail Grass jumped and followed them, acting as an interpreter. Also traveling with them were Hope and his new friend, Blake.
Blake is a tall man with a resolute face. He has made great contributions to the construction of the Holy City in recent years. He is not only an important partner of Hope, but also a witness and participant in the development of this city. Lin Xiaofeng signaled Gouweicaoer to introduce this person to everyone.
Dogtail Grass cleared his throat and began to explain: "Your Majesty, Lord, this is Mr. Black. He is Lord Hope's right-hand man. The beautiful houses, wide roads, and convenient public facilities we have built in the Holy City in recent years all rely on his help. If Your Majesty thinks that any building in the city is inappropriate, or wants to make any changes, just tell him, he will definitely be able to do it for you." (End of this chapter)
