After hearing this, Blake walked up to Li Dexian with a smile on his face, bowed deeply to him, and said some auspicious words in fluent foreign language. Although Li Dexian didn't understand what he was saying, he could feel the sincerity and respect from his expression and tone.
When they arrived at the gate of the Experimental Primary School, Lin Xiaofeng and his companions did not want to disturb the students in class, so they walked around the corridor quietly. They looked inside through the classroom window and heard the children reading aloud. The sound was clear and pleasant, full of longing and hope for the future.
Dogtail Grass could not help but sigh: "Your Majesty, since the school was founded, it has trained many smart students. They especially like our Jingjiang culture and history, even more than we do. Now these graduates, some have joined the army to serve the motherland, and some have studied medicine to treat diseases and save lives. This is all thanks to you, the Marquis!"
Lin Xiaofeng was very pleased to hear these words, but he also knew that this was just the beginning and there were more children who needed their help and education. He hoped that every child could receive a good education and have a bright future.
Afterwards, they went to a construction site in the slums where a new residential area was being built. The project had been going on for more than a year, and the general framework of the building had been built, and the final roofing work was now underway.
The construction site was a busy scene, with workers sweating profusely as they worked. Some of them were pushing carts to transport sand, some were mixing cement, and others were moving bricks. Everyone's face was filled with enthusiasm and sweat for work, and they used their own hands to add bricks and tiles to the city and contribute their own strength.
Lin Xiaofeng looked at all this with his heart full of emotion and respect. He knew that the changes and development of this city were inseparable from these hard-working workers. They used their sweat and efforts to exchange for today's prosperity and beauty. Suddenly, a whistle sounded and the workers stopped their work and walked towards a temporary shed. It turned out that it was time for lunch.
In the bustling crowd, the sun poured down generously, and countless faces shone in the sun, which was the simplicity and tenacity unique to the working people. People found a flat stone or wooden box to sit down, took off their helmets and used them as fans. Sweat beads as big as soybeans slid down their foreheads and wet their clothes, but no one cared. They basked in the sun while waiting for lunch. Although the waiting process seemed a bit long, no one complained, because this was part of their lives, or perhaps part of their misfortune.
Fortunately, the food was delivered on time just as the meal time arrived. Several waiters in white uniforms pushed carts with steaming hot food on them, exuding fragrance. A burly waiter, holding a large spoon, skillfully served rice to everyone. His movements were bold, and the soup splashed everywhere as he raised and lowered the spoon, but those waiting for food did not mind. They just wanted to fill their stomachs quickly so that they could continue their afternoon work.
In the corner of the construction site, Blanco sat quietly, surrounded by several workers, eating and chatting. Blanco, a skinny man, held a bowl in his left hand, which contained a thin porridge soup with a few vegetable leaves floating in it, and tightly held a dry bread in his right hand. He hurriedly put the food into his mouth, as if he was afraid that someone would snatch it away. The way he ate, he looked like a hungry wild boar rooting for food.
After a few mouthfuls, he finished half a bowl of porridge. He stopped to catch his breath. His shriveled abdomen rose and fell with his breathing, and his ribs were clearly visible, as if they could pierce through his thin skin at any time. Blanco's physical condition had deteriorated in recent years. He was out of breath when moving bricks, and felt dizzy when he exerted a little effort. The burden of life had tortured this once strong man into a emaciated state.
A few years ago, in order for his child to receive a better education, he resolutely borrowed money to buy a house and sent his son to a school in Jingjiang. However, the heavy debt was like a mountain that made him breathless, and eventually led to the breakup of his family. The house he lived in had endless quality problems. The wall paint was mottled and peeling, and the roof was leaking so badly that it was uninhabitable, leaking from the sixth floor to the third floor. He lived on the top floor, the sixth floor, and every rainy day, the house was a mess. The leaking made him miserable, and he had to endure the scolding and complaints from the residents downstairs.
His son, who lived in the slums for a long time, also picked up a lot of hooligan habits. Because he was older, he bullied the weak in school and enjoyed fighting, and was repeatedly severely reprimanded by the teacher. What's worse, his son also got the habit of showing off. He wanted everything his classmates had. Every time he went home during the holidays, he always asked Blanco for money to buy this and that, especially the expensive Jingjiang T-shirt. Although Blanco was unwilling, he always tried his best to satisfy him. After all, he only had one son, and he hoped that his son could hold his head up in front of his classmates.
Blanco endured all kinds of hardships silently, but he always believed that as long as the chores on the construction site were over, his son would graduate. He often fantasized that his son would find a good job after graduation and their lives would definitely be better. Whenever he thought of this, he felt that all the hardships were worth it.
At this time, Blanco showed a silly smile on his face, and his thin and dark face glowed with a rare brilliance. Seeing this, the workers around him joked, "Blanco, you are here again! Are you thinking about your son again?" He smiled and replied, "Yes! My son is about to graduate! He will be able to be independent soon!" The workers teased him unscrupulously, "Blanco! Look at how poor you are now! It's embarrassing to go out! Your son will definitely not recognize you in the future!" Blanco's face turned slightly red after hearing this, and he stubbornly replied, "Am I embarrassed? Have you guys ever been to school? Can you read?" As soon as he finished speaking, the workers dispersed and went about their own business.
Blanco lowered his head and saw the bread and leftovers in the bowl had turned into mush. He ate them all in one breath! Then he sat back in the shade and continued to imagine a better life in the future. However, he didn't know that a team of people in gorgeous clothes were coming here in a mighty manner not far away. There was less than an hour left before the new life he had dreamed of! The wheel of fate had begun to turn slowly...
Meanwhile, at another location, Lin Xiaofeng was busy instructing Gouweicao'er and others to prepare for the arrival of the important person - His Majesty! They organized the students to rehearse dance programs and planned to perform them on the playground. Hope and Blake followed closely behind Lin Xiaofeng to assist in handling various matters. When Hope couldn't help but ask Blake about the preparations on the construction site, Blake smiled flatteringly and replied, "Don't worry! Everything has been arranged! We guarantee that the two distinguished guests, the Emperor and the Marquis, will be satisfied!"
When Li Dexian, Lin Xiaofeng and others officially stepped into this lively and orderly construction site, they were surprised to find so many strong and capable workers gathered here! The foreman enthusiastically showed them the workers' rich and delicious lunch and invited them to taste the delicious food together. Li Dexian looked at the dazzling array of dishes in front of him and couldn't help but sighed: "The workers here have really good food!" Blake stood aside calmly and accepted Lin Xiaofeng's praise and affirmation.
However, at this moment, there was a sudden muffled sound, and someone fell from a high place! Everyone rushed over to check the situation and found a thin dark man lying on the ground, his chest heaving slightly, and blood foam coming out of the corners of his mouth... This man turned out to be Blanco.
Blanco was still surrounded by his fellow workers, as if he had become the center of a vortex of sadness. The air around him was frozen, with only silent gazes and long waits. Blanco, this name is so famous on the construction site. He is strong and hardworking, and has always been a role model in everyone's mind. However, this time he fell from the roof, and the reason was like a fog, making it hard to figure out.
·························
The sun was pouring down like a waterfall, covering the entire construction site. Lin Xiaofeng raised his hand to his forehead to block the dazzling golden light. His eyes penetrated the barrier of the sun and looked up at the roof of the building where the accident happened. He saw several workers sticking their heads out from the edge of the sixth floor. Their faces were full of astonishment and confusion, and they were obviously stunned by this sudden change. Lin Xiaofeng noticed that the body shape, face, and even the color of the work clothes of these workers upstairs were very different from those of the workers on the ground, as if they were from another world.
Lin Xiaofeng looked back at Blake behind him. His eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was examining someone, or thinking about something. Blake, who was always smiling, had turned pale at this moment. In Lin Xiaofeng's opinion, he was obviously panicking even though he was pretending to be calm.
"Everything was going well today," Lin Xiaofeng thought to himself, "How could someone fall from the building? What a mess!" He could not help but frown. His originally calm heart was stirred by this accident.
At this moment, a group of workers on the rooftop had already come downstairs quickly, their steps hurried, their faces full of anxiety. Dogtail Grass asked loudly about the situation, and a worker hurriedly replied: "His name is Blanco, he is our foreman. Just now when he was moving bricks upstairs, he suddenly staggered and then fell down, and we didn't have time to catch him..."
"He has been in poor health recently and the weather is so hot, he might have heatstroke." Another worker added, his tone full of helplessness and regret.
"Blanco? How could he die?" whispers came from the crowd, "He is the pillar of the family. If he dies, what will happen to his children?"
Various thoughts flashed through Blake's mind, doubt, fear, regret... His mood was like an overturned five-flavor bottle, complicated and difficult to describe. He hurriedly pushed through the crowd to see what was going on. But before he could get close, someone had already rushed to ask for a doctor.
There was a simple clinic near the construction site. Although the doctors were not very skilled, they were more than capable of treating some simple injuries. The doctor came running over with a medical kit, squatted down and began to check Blanco's injuries. He took out his tools, checked them one by one, but shook his head and said to Dogtail Grass, "There's no hope." After that, he began to pack up his tools and prepared to leave.
Li Dexian couldn't bear to watch this scene. He walked forward and asked with a glimmer of hope: "Doctor, is his injury really that serious? Won't you take another closer look?" Dogtail Grass also hurriedly agreed: "Yes, doctor, please take another look. He still has children to take care of!"
The doctor stopped, looked back at them, and explained: "His bones are broken, and his internal organs may also be ruptured. I have been working on the construction site for so many years and have seen many such cases. There is really nothing we can do." His tone was full of helplessness and regret.
When Blake heard these words, he felt his hair stand on end and his face turned pale instantly. He thought today was a good day for him to make great achievements and lead his fellow workers to work hard to finish the project as soon as possible, but he didn't expect that this unfortunate incident would ruin it. Unconsciously, his forehead was covered with sweat and his palms began to become damp.
He gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind, pushed through the crowd, knelt on his knees, and cried out loudly: "Brother! Why is it you!" His voice was heartbreaking, as if he wanted to vent all the grief in his heart. This scene attracted everyone's attention, and everyone looked at him silently, their eyes full of sympathy and regret.
Blanco on the ground struggled to open his eyes. When he saw that it was Old Bu from next door, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. He wanted to raise his right hand to slap Blake, but he was too injured to lift it. Blake held his hand tightly and cried, "Brother, don't say anything. I know everything. Are you worried about your family?"
Blanco spoke with difficulty, his eyes full of resentment and unwillingness. Blake leaned over to his ear and whispered, "Don't worry, brother, I will take care of your child as if he were my own." His words were full of determination and commitment.
After hearing this, Blanco's eyes were full of pleading and expectation, as if he was saying, "My child... no one... takes care of him..." Blake leaned over and whispered softly, "I'm listening, I'm listening... Please speak slowly..." However, Blanco was no longer able to say any more words, he could only make a faint moan.
Blake knelt on the ground and cried loudly: "Brother, he entrusted the child to me!" The workers around him were very distressed when they saw this scene. They knew that although Blake and Blanco had some minor conflicts on weekdays, at this moment, they saw Blake's deep friendship with Blanco. Blake swore that he would take good care of Blanco's child and give the child a share of his property.
After hearing Blake's oath, Blanco's eyes sparkled. He seemed to see that his child was well taken care of in the future, and he finally chose to forgive and trust. His eyes gradually became calm and peaceful, as if he had no regrets.
At this moment, Lin Xiaofeng was watching the show with his arms folded. Although he felt that Blake's acting was a bit poor, he couldn't find any faults in this situation. After all, this unlucky Blanco fell from the upstairs by accident, and it really had nothing to do with Blake. However, Li Dexian stood beside him, frowned and said, "Old Lin, I feel that this matter is a bit weird."
Lin Xiaofeng nodded after hearing this. He was also thinking in his heart that this matter was indeed strange. Blanco was usually strong and hardworking, so how could he suddenly fall from the upstairs? Moreover, the place where he fell was so coincidental, just in a crowded place. He decided to ask Blake in person what was going on.
So, Lin Xiaofeng asked Gouweicaoer to pull Blake aside and ask about the situation. At this moment, Blanco in the crowd was already dying, and Blake was still crying beside him. The scene was very miserable. Lin Xiaofeng looked at this scene and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Life is unpredictable, no one knows what will happen in the next second. He only hopes that Blake can do what he said and take good care of Blanco's child so that the child can have a warm home in the future.
Blake's heart was heavy as lead, with tears welling in his eyes. His voice trembled slightly as he revealed the secret in his heart: "Yes, Blanco and I have been neighbors for more than 20 years. Since I moved to Jingjiang, life has gradually become better, just like a dead tree coming back to life. However, my good friend Blanco is not good at business... In fact, he does not have any particularly outstanding skills."
He paused for a moment, as if looking for the right words, and then continued: "Blanco was a scholar, and he had a strong sense of self-esteem. I secretly found a job for him so that he could have some stable income, but he didn't know about it. I never expected that things would develop to this point..."
Hearing this, Lin Xiaofeng nodded slightly and responded with a somewhat teasing tone: "Oh, it seems that you are really a kind and righteous person."
Blake did not notice the sarcasm in Lin Xiaofeng's words. Instead, he felt a little relieved. He laughed dryly and responded, "Hey, this is what I should do. This is what I should do."
Lin Xiaofeng stared at him intently and asked curiously, "Since you have a close relationship with Blanco, you should know him very well. Can you tell me in detail what kind of person he is?"
Blake fell into deep thought, as if returning to the time they spent together: "We once lived together in the narrow alleys of the slums. Although the days at that time were hard, they were full of warmth. Later, for some reason, Blanco unfortunately contracted a sexually transmitted disease. His wife could not bear this humiliation and left him, leaving behind only an orphan. But he always regarded that child as the apple of his eye..."
He sighed and continued, "Blanco, he is a kind-hearted person, a truly honest man. Although he is not well educated, he is a loving father. He..."
Lin Xiaofeng suddenly interrupted him, with a hint of impatience in his voice: "Okay, no need to embellish it, just tell me, is he useless?"
Blake smiled awkwardly and replied helplessly: "You can say that."
Lin Xiaofeng took a deep breath and sighed: "Okay, I already have a general understanding of him. So, now let's talk about yourself."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xiaofeng's tone suddenly became stern: "The quality of your project is poor, and the food you provide to the workers is even worse. In this hot summer, you force them to work hard. Do you know how serious this is? In Jingjiang, this is a crime that will cost you your head!"
Blake's face turned pale in an instant, and he trembled as he explained, "My Lord, you misunderstood. My projects have all been strictly inspected and accepted by the people of Jingjiang..."
Lin Xiaofeng glared at him fiercely and shouted, "Shut up! Your clumsy tricks may deceive others, but they are nowhere to hide in front of me!"
He paused and continued, "Don't think that you can do whatever you want in Jingjiang just because you are from the Holy City. I tell you, the law in Jingjiang is strict and there is no loophole! No matter where you run to, as long as you are related to Jingjiang, we will definitely bring you to justice!"
Blake's legs went weak with fear, and he fell to his knees with a plop, his head hanging low, almost touching the ground. His pupils suddenly dilated, and his whole body trembled like a sieve. Lin Xiaofeng slowly bent down, stared into Blake's eyes, and asked word by word: "If you have nothing to hide, then what are you afraid of?"
Blake's mind was in a mess, and he stammered: "I...I..."
Lin Xiaofeng straightened up, a smile appeared on his face, trying to ease the tense atmosphere: "You don't have to panic too much, I'm not an unreasonable person. Although I can guess roughly, everything must be based on real evidence... What's more, there is no precedent of extrajudicial grace in Jingjiang. Get up, let's sit down and talk slowly."
Blake seemed to have grasped a glimmer of hope. He stood up tremblingly and looked at Lin Xiaofeng with a look of both fear and desire.
"My lord... I can assure you that there is absolutely no problem with my project. As for the food, it is indeed a bit simple, but in this hot season, the situation at other construction sites is similar." Blake explained carefully.
Lin Xiaofeng nodded to show his understanding: "Well, your explanation is quite sincere. Let me give you a chance to make amends, but you must start to rectify it immediately."
He then made specific demands: "Safety fences must be installed at high places on the construction site to ensure the safety of workers; the quality of food must be significantly improved; and workers working in hot weather must wear straw hats to prevent sunburn."
"The last point is also very important," Lin Xiaofeng added, "In view of the hard work of the workers, I think their wages should also be increased accordingly. In my opinion, increasing the daily wage of each type of work by one silver coin should be a reasonable amount, right?"
Blake was relieved after hearing this and nodded in agreement: "Sure, sure! Absolutely no problem! I'll do whatever you say, Lord. If you're worried, you can send someone to supervise at any time!"
Lin Xiaofeng nodded with satisfaction and asked one last question: "If someone asks you in the future why you are suddenly so generous to the workers, how will you answer?"
Blake understood Lin Xiaofeng's intention in an instant. He answered firmly, "I will tell them that this is the order of His Majesty the Emperor Jingjiang! He asked me to do this!"
Blake went on to explain: "The Emperor of Jingjiang has always been concerned about the suffering of the lower-class people. Today, he personally visited the construction site and saw the brothers sweating and working hard. He felt very sorry. Therefore, he specially allocated a special fund to improve the welfare of the workers and increase the monthly salary of each worker by one silver coin as a token of sympathy."
After saying this, Blake added: "Yes! That's exactly what I meant. I may not have expressed it clearly just now."
Although Blake said it in a high-sounding manner, his heart was bleeding secretly. These extra expenses would eventually fall on his head. However, the current situation forced him to give up reluctantly.
Lin Xiaofeng was satisfied with his answer and encouraged him: "You have a good understanding. I will say a few good words for you in front of the emperor later. If you can handle this matter well, I will consider giving you more projects. Now you can go back and appease your workers."
Blake was overjoyed after hearing this and immediately straightened his appearance and ran to Blanco again. Not long after, Lin Xiaofeng also arrived at the construction site with his entourage.
Lin Xiaofeng gently lifted up the still sobbing Blake and comforted him, "Brother, you must be patient and accept the change." Everyone's eyes were focused on Lin Xiaofeng, curiously looking at this mysterious nobleman from the east. He took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes, his eyes were slightly red. Then he looked around and said sadly, "I, Lin Xiaofeng, just learned from Mr. Black about Mr. Blanco's unfortunate experience and I am deeply saddened."
He went on to say, "I worked with Mr. Blanco for a period of time at another construction site. He always abided by the law and got along well with his fellow workers. He worked diligently, conscientiously and meticulously. He was thrifty and helpful in his daily life."
"He is also a very studious person. He goes to school every night after get off work to learn cultural knowledge. He can easily master the four spellings of the word 'fennel'." After hearing what Lin Xiaofeng said, the workers around him looked at each other in surprise and whispered to each other. They couldn't help but wonder: Is the always taciturn Blanco really such a person? This is a bit exaggerated! However, Lin Xiaofeng didn't seem to care about the reactions of the crowd. He still said with a serious expression: "However, you may have noticed that the Blanco standing here is very different from what I described."
"Since the last construction site was completed, he has been ill and his health has been getting worse. So why does he insist on working on the construction site? Because he has a young son! In order to give his child a better future, he has to return to the construction site and continue to sweat." At this point, Lin Xiaofeng's voice choked again. He paused for a moment and then said, "And his best friend Mr. Black has been secretly supporting his child in order to maintain his dignity."
Blake suddenly covered his face and sobbed, as if struck by lightning. His shoulders trembled, showing the endless grief in his heart. At this moment, Lin Xiaofeng's voice also began to drift, as if with some kind of magic, penetrating the noise of the construction site and reaching everyone's heart.
"Oh my God!" Lin Xiaofeng continued in a trembling voice, tears flashing in his eyes, as if he was also shocked by this sudden tragedy. "Who would have thought that such a tragedy would happen today! Our great and selfless Mr. Blanco, on the construction site where he worked tirelessly, actually encountered such a misfortune. This is really very sad!"
He looked around and saw that the sky of Jingjiang was still blue, but the atmosphere on the construction site gradually became heavy. The workers who had originally disdained all this stopped their work and began to look serious. They may have had complaints about Blanco before, but at this moment, their respect for Blanco reached its peak, as if they could empathize with his experience.
Lin Xiaofeng waved his arms and shouted loudly, his voice echoing over the construction site: "Mr. Blanco used his life to sound the alarm for us!"
He looked into the distance, as if he could see the future of Jingjiang: "Jingjiang builds fortifications in the Holy City not only to build tall buildings, but also to benefit our people and create happiness for them. Because we believe that everyone has a heart that yearns for a better life!"
At this point, he paused and took a deep breath: "However, we cannot be careless. In the process of pursuing beauty, sometimes there will be misfortune. Today, Mr. Blanco's passing is the most profound warning to us."
Lin Xiaofeng's words were like morning bells and evening drums, awakening the conscience of everyone present. After he finished speaking, he gently patted Blake on the shoulder. Blake's legs softened and he almost fell to the ground. Tears finally fell from his eyes: "This is not Jingjiang's fault! Jingjiang has repeatedly emphasized the need to protect the safety and interests of the brothers. It was me... I was negligent and did not strictly require everyone to follow Jingjiang's standards, which led to such a tragedy."
Lin Xiaofeng helped Blake up again, his eyes firm and powerful: "It is not terrible to make mistakes, but it is terrible to know the mistakes and not correct them. We must learn lessons from this tragedy and work harder to ensure the safety of every worker."
He looked around and saw that everyone's eyes were focused on him. Li Dexian was also standing in the crowd, trembling all over, his fists clenched, and his eyes flashing with complex emotions. He was not really heartbroken about Blanco's death, but was touched by Lin Xiaofeng's words. From the moment Lin Xiaofeng opened his mouth, he felt something was wrong. Although he knew that Lin Xiaofeng's intention was for Jingjiang, he did not expect that the other party would use this tragedy so cleverly to arouse the workers' emotions.
Blanco's body was still lying on the ground, his face was peaceful and calm, as if he had just fallen into a deep sleep. However, the workers around him had already started talking about it.
"Is this the emperor of Jingjiang? He is so kind that he trembles with heartache when seeing such a tragedy..."
"Why haven't we met such a good monarch?"
"In my next life, I would like to be reborn in Jingjiang!"
Lin Xiaofeng clasped his hands together and spoke again, "His Majesty is merciful. He has decided to build better protective measures on the construction site and install fences and nets on the upper floors. I hope such tragedies will not happen again. In addition," he looked around, "workers present, His Majesty has decided to reward you with an extra silver coin every month in addition to your current wages!"
The workers smiled with joy, as if they had forgotten the tragedy. But at this moment, Gouweicaoer felt nauseous. She thought that her brother's behavior was really disgusting.
Lin Xiaofeng seemed not to notice this. He continued, "Finally, in order to commemorate Mr. Blanco, we will set up the Blanco Award to reward the worker with the best performance on the construction site! The award will be given once a month, and the winner can receive a bonus of ten silver coins!"
The whole audience burst into applause, and the construction site where the accident occurred seemed to have turned into a sea of joy. Although Blanco had passed away, his name and deeds reached the pinnacle of glory at this moment.
However, at this moment, Hope covered his chest, took a few deep breaths, and secretly glanced at Lin Xiaofeng. This scene was too exciting for him! He was very interested in Jingjiang, especially in Lin Xiaofeng. After a long period of observation and understanding, he found that the other party was definitely not an ordinary talent. When they first met, he only felt that the other party was kind and approachable; but now he discovered the other party's true face - a terrifying existence that can even play with corpses!
When the whole place was completely quiet, Lin Xiaofeng's voice rang out again: "Dear friends, at this moment we should not forget the greatest hero." He looked around and asked loudly, "Then who is the real hero!?"
"Blanco!" The workers shouted in unison in response to him. At this moment, they all seemed to have become big shots, shining brightly, and some of them had tears in their eyes. Blake swallowed his saliva and looked at Lin Xiaofeng with a look of doubt. He was afraid that he would be controlled by the other party at any time, so he could only try his best to cooperate with him and satisfy him.
"Very good!" Lin Xiaofeng said loudly, "Blanco is the hero among us! Now let's close our eyes and observe a minute of silence for the hero!" After saying that, he was the first to close his eyes and began to observe a minute of silence, and all the workers followed his example and closed their eyes, praying and mourning for Blanco in their hearts. The entire construction site fell into a heavy atmosphere again. However, when everyone closed their eyes, Lin Xiaofeng suddenly opened his eyes, kicked Blake, and signaled him to look at Blanco with his eyes.
Blake was stunned for a moment before he reacted and hurriedly began to tidy up Blanco's face. His hands were shaking as he gently stroked Blanco's face, making him smile. The originally sad face suddenly became sunny after Blanco's tidying up, as if Blanco had found a happy life in Jingjiang.
When everyone opened their eyes, Lin Xiaofeng was the first to point to the body and shouted in surprise: "Look, brothers! Blanco is smiling! This is his response to us in heaven! He must have heard our prayers and felt our remembrance in heaven. May he be with Jingjiang in his next life and continue his happy life!"
The crowd was in an uproar, and they gathered around and looked at Blanco's smiling face. At this moment, they seemed to feel Blanco's presence, his love for Jingjiang and his yearning for life.
"Oh my, he really laughed! Blanco, you must have heard our voices!" someone said with emotion.
Lin Xiaofeng said seriously: "Okay, brothers, since Brother Blanco has received our blessings, let's send him home."
The workers vied for the honorable task of carrying Blanco's body. Finally, two strong workers were selected, and they happily carried Blanco away from the construction site, as if they were sending him to another happy world.
At this moment, Hope took a deep breath and glanced at Lin Xiaofeng secretly. His eyes were full of vigilance and fear, as well as awe and curiosity towards Lin Xiaofeng. He realized that every major event that happened in Jingjiang seemed to be related to this mysterious and terrifying man. And today's scene made him feel a deep fear and respect for Lin Xiaofeng, and at the same time, it also strengthened his determination to get to know Jingjiang and this man in depth.
Ouch! If gods really exist in this world, they should be struck by thunder now! Just think about it, just now, a cold corpse was put out, but in the blink of an eye, Lin Xiaofeng gave it magical power.
Those workers were manipulated by Lin Xiaofeng, as if they were attracted by his magic, and they all circled around him in a daze. Watching this scene, I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart. Lin Xiaofeng really has no scruples. If he raised his arm and asked these people to die for Jingjiang, I'm afraid they would happily agree and go without hesitation.
These people, they have now been incited by Lin Xiaofeng to almost become the people of Jingjiang, and they are grateful to Jingjiang and the emperor. This kind of incitement, this means of manipulating people's hearts... I have never heard of it, never seen it before. This is too terrible, this evil power.
I know very well that if I continue to have a deeper relationship with him, I am afraid that I am far from being his opponent, and I will probably lose everything in the end. But now, do I have any way out? I am full of bitterness in my heart, but I can't say it.
At the same time, Lin Xiaofeng raised his hand and said loudly: "Brothers, we have wasted a lot of time today. Now, we should send His Majesty back according to the etiquette of Jingjiang!" His eyes were as sharp as lightning, shooting straight at Blake. That look seemed to see through everything.
Blake numbly knelt on the ground again, kowtowed steadily, and shouted loudly: "Send His Majesty!" His voice, although a little trembling, was full of determination. Others followed his example and knelt down and shouted together. The sound was deafening, as if it could shake the heavens and the earth. (End of this chapter)
