C158 illness (1/2)
The little girl's father was in a very bad condition, much worse than she had said. Because mining was an extremely dangerous activity, it happened frequently when the miners were injured. The little girl's father had his spine crushed during a mine accident last year, causing him to lose control of his body, and the reason for that was because the owner of the mine had forced them to operate in mines, which had no security.
After Chang Jing heard what the man had to say, he could not help but say angrily, ”Don't tell me the law does not apply?”
The man sighed and replied, ”The law says that at least five thousand gold coins can be compensated for the deaths of the miners, but only five thousand gold coins can be paid to the mine owner. The man sighed and replied,” The law says that at least five thousand gold coins can be compensated for the deaths of the miners, but it can only be five thousand gold coins for the mine owner.
”So they used your lives in exchange for extra profits?”
The man was silent.
Huo Wu said bitterly, ”No wonder there's such a good car in this villa. These people deserve to die!”
Yin Feng sneered, ”These people deserve to die, but if they die, how can they live a peaceful life as a miner? This is simply a matter of the system. After these people die, there will immediately be another group of people at the top. As long as the law does not change, this will not disappear! ”
”If that's the case, then let's talk to the mayor. He should have a way.”
”Stupid,” Huo Wu was the first to jump out, ”Do you think the mayor doesn't know about this? ”But he just let it be, and changing the system is easier said than done.”
Chang Jing pondered for a moment, but was unable to find any clues, she could only say: ”Huo Wu is right, but no matter what, we should help them out, helping them solve this problem is better than giving them thousands of blessings!”
He turned back to the man and said, ”I heard from the mine owner that you guys don't have Magic Cores on you. What's going on?”
The man shook his head in embarrassment and replied, ”Actually... Most of the ancestors of the miners were merchants who came to the Demon World to do business, but were forced to stay because of the barrier. If they could not return to Homo sapiens, they would lose the source of their goods, and naturally lose their income. The Demon World is a place where people respect strength. They are all weak and will not be able to continue staying in there very long. In the end, they will be forced to come to the mines to be miners, and then we, the group of non-humans who do not have Magic Cores, will become their descendants.
These words were said very sorrowfully, causing everyone to be moved.
But Chang Jing could tell that something was wrong, she thought to herself, how could an uneducated miner say something like that, so she asked, ”These are … How do you know? ”
”I heard from Mr. Book,” he said, his pale face flushing, ”that I used to listen to him when he was a boy, but no one ever told a book after he was dead.”
”So that's how it is. So you haven't learned any magic, right?”
”Do we need to work here as laborers if we know magic?”
Chang Jing thought about it, that made sense, as a Demon World who revered strength, if they had power, they would not have fallen into such a situation. However, after hearing his words, he quickly thought of a method to help them temporarily.
he asked, ”Do you have a lot of injured people here? Let them gather here as soon as possible, and say that the Holy Envoy wishes to bless them on behalf of the Holy Maiden. ”
The man was in disbelief, his eyes wide open as he asked, ”Are you saying that I can stand up again?!”
Unconsciously, he used a respectful language.
Chang Jing nodded his head, ”Since you are Homo sapiens, I cannot guarantee, but I have my ways.”
What a joke, his top words, 'as gentle as water', was not just for show!
When Chang Jing finished speaking, the man's room was already filled with people.
In order to curry favor with the Holy Envoy, the mine owners had specially given the miners' day off today, and sent a portion of the miners to come welcome the Holy Envoy. When the miners heard that the Holy Envoy had come, they naturally did not want to miss this rare opportunity, and they all rushed over.
Chang Jing laughed, then ordered three students to gather all the miners who were sick and injured.
When they heard this, they scattered and hurried in the direction of their home--they were carrying the patients.
Not long after, many patients appeared in front of the man's dilapidated wood shed house. Whether they were lying down or leaning on the ground, their faces were all as pale as the man just now.
