C157 Goodbye

"Now?"

The two of them walked out of the car and looked at each other, Chang Jing purposely pretended that she did not care that everything was broken down in front of her, and reluctantly asked, "I wonder when we will meet again?"

Xi Yan smiled sweetly, "If fate wills it, we can meet again! "However, if you really want to meet me, you are welcome to come to the capital to find me. I will treat you to dinner."

Chang Jing still wanted to say something, but Xi Yan's servants were already hurrying them, saying that they would delay their journey if they were to be late.

"Well, see you then," he said helplessly. "I hope I can see you there next time!"

"Of course!"

After saying her goodbyes, Chang Jing didn't even know when she got in the car. When he came back to her senses, his car was already three miles away.

"Well, where shall we go today?"

"The western suburbs of Boyu City. His absence yesterday had made her very unhappy.

"Oh, I heard that it's the slums. You should pray for them. Let me sleep first."

Then, he ignored Huo Wu's widened eyes and just laid down to sleep …

Uzzi was located in the western suburbs of Boyu City. There were plenty of minerals here, but the pollution was very serious. It was so serious that no one wanted to live there — only the miners who sold their labor but couldn't get enough food and their families couldn't live there. Because of this, this place was truly a slum.

Under the guidance of the eight monsters, the car soon arrived at the destination, Uzzie. Chang Jing and the other two thought that they had walked into the wrong place after getting off the carriage. How could this be a slum?

The road was even larger and wider than the Boyu City's main road. The clean road had perfect greenery on it, and rows after rows of luxurious carriages were parked beside it. Just as they were astonished, well-dressed miners came up to welcome them with smiles on their faces.

The mine owners of Uzzi had already received a notice from the mayor yesterday saying that they would welcome the Blessed One. However, they were not interested in his actions at all — they were all poor people, so what good fortune was there for them! However, they still did not dare to be negligent. Firstly, the City Lord offending him was a great honor to them, so they naturally did not want to give up on it. As a result, they had been waiting here since early morning.

Facing their wild flattery, Chang Jing and the other three felt disgusted, but there was nothing they could do. This was their job, no matter how disgusting it was, they had to bear it.

Under the lead of the mine owners, the four of them walked through the neat and tidy streets and headed deeper into the mine. However, the scene before them was completely different – they saw rows of shabby wooden houses in front of them, while outside the house, there were piles of broken things, along with a cooking pot.

Regarding this, Huo Wu, Yin Feng, and Nian Tu, they didn't really feel much about it. Just based on their own words, this place was a little dirty, and the living standard was much better than when they were living in the forest back then.

But Chang Jing was different. Although he was not born and bred in a wealthy family, she had never experienced hardships. When he saw the toddlers with dark faces picking up food from the ground, he was stunned. What kind of scene was this? The children that society called the princesses the young emperors of the family were living in such dire straits? How could their parents be any better?

Could this be what you call a slum?!

The head of the mine saw that Chang Jing's expression changed, and immediately chased the children away, mumbling to himself that the poor wretch's child was a poor wretch his entire life!

Chang Jing could not help but snort coldly: "Don't you think that their poverty is caused by the exploitation of you people?"

They had heard of the word "exploitation" before, but they had never taken it to heart. However, it was different when it came out of Chang Jing's mouth now.

"Master Holy Envoy, this is none of our business. These people don't have Magic Cores s, so they can't do anything but work. And everything that we do is legal, the taxes that we pay to the City Lord every year have never fallen off! And if we didn't work for them, their lives wouldn't be secure. "

Chang Jing thought about it, that was true, she had never broken the law, what's the use of saying it, so he could only follow the mine owner's footsteps and not speak anymore.

His heart was filled with grief as he watched the scenes playing out in front of his eyes.

He said to Yin Feng and the other two, "Maybe we should really do something for them!"

The latter nodded her head vigorously. Although they did not have any mercy, their teacher's order was something that they were most willing to follow.

Very soon, they arrived at the welcoming location for the Holy Envoy. It was a large garden villa.

The mansion's grandeur was majestic, making a stark contrast with the row of s. This was the difference between the poor and the rich.

The wine was also very delicious, but Chang Jing just could not eat it. She would immediately think about what those pitiful children had to eat and if they had anything to eat.

In the end, he couldn't sit still any longer. Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, he decided to gift the feast to the children. In any case, he didn't belong here, so it didn't matter who he offended.

The children were naturally overjoyed. They had never eaten such delicious food before. They didn't even use their tableware, but used their dirty hands to snatch it. After snatching it, they directly stuffed it into their own mouths.

When Chang Jing saw that a four or five-year-old little girl couldn't snatch away another person because she was too weak, she took out a handful of candies from her pocket and shoved it into her hands. She asked casually, "Little girl, where are your parents?"

The girl, Zhang Kai, wanted to throw the candy into his mouth, but stopped himself from doing so. Staring at the chomping children, she sucked on his fingers and answered slurred, "Dad was home sick last year and Mom went mining with the adults."

This situation was very unusual, thus Chang Jing asked her curiously, "Why isn't little sister eating it, afraid that she will lose her teeth?"

The little girl quickly shook her head and said, "No, my teeth are very good, look …"

With that, he revealed a mouthful of white teeth, and then quietly said, "Daddy is very pitiful lying in bed, I want to give him candy!"

After hearing this, Chang Jing was moved, and the hearts of Huo Wu and the other two, who had lost both of their parents since childhood, were filled with grief.

"Come, little sister," said Huo Wu, taking her hand. "Bring big sister to see your father."

The little girl knew that these people were all important people, so she naturally jumped home in excitement.

The mine owners wanted to follow as well, but they were stopped by Chang Jing.

"Don't go, it'll scare the children."

His words confused the miners, and they thought, are we that scary?

The little girl's house was at the very edge of the wood shed, and the situation was even worse than the surrounding houses. The pillars that supported the roof were rotting, the whole house was crumbling, and the planks that served as walls were riddled with holes. Even the wind could not block them.

The moment the little girl entered, she shouted into the room, "Father, look, I'll bring TangTang for you to eat!"

Raising a piece of cloth that was used as a door, Chang Jing and the rest entered the low house.

The layout inside was simple and old, as expected.

There was only one bed in the small space, and nothing else. Looking in the direction the little girl had gone, there was a middle-aged man lying on the bed in the dark corner. Maybe he had been lying in the sun for too long, and his face was pale and he smelled bad.

His smile suddenly went blank, and he stared in horror at the well-dressed uninvited guests.

"Big brother, don't be afraid. We aren't bad people." Chang Jing smiled and said, "Just now, little sister said that you are sick, that's why we came to take a look."

After hearing what Chang Jing had said, the middle-aged man seemed to have calmed down but she did not say anything.

The little girl took out a handful of candy and handed it over to the man, saying happily, "Daddy, Big Brother gave me a lot of candy, don't you think it's a lot? I'll peel it for Daddy to eat … "

Holding the candy his daughter had given him, the man began to cry.

Happiness is just a pile of candy?
