Chapter 303: What a beast, you are making me angry
The sun is shining.
The sky is a light blue.
Grass and trees are sprouting in the fields and distant mountains, and the delicate light green spreads out like the sea, which is very beautiful.
"ha……"
Wen Jiaojiao stood up, raised her hands to the sky, stretched herself, and yawned loudly.
This movement perfectly showcased her curvaceous figure, drawing the attention of workers passing by. Both men and women kept their gaze fixed on her for at least three seconds.
"Miss Wen, I advise you not to come here again!"
The old chef took a kitchen knife and sharpened it on the whetstone.
"Oh? Why?"
Wen Jiaojiao slightly raised her delicate red lips and asked with a smile.
"It's because you distracted everyone and affected the progress of the project! This is an infrastructure project that the lord is concerned about, and it cannot be delayed or damaged!" The old chef pointed at the workers around him.
The kitchen knife in his hand was sharpened to a brilliant shine, and the workers quickly came to their senses and continued to work.
After Qiao Lan left, the villa area she designated in the center of Heishui Town was cleaned up, and the workers were about to disperse. The old chef volunteered to share the burden for his master. According to the project list Qiao Lan had previously listed, he continued to recruit people to work, and used the materials left by Qiao Lan to settle the wages every day, and acted as a supervisor.
Despite the multitude of tasks, he was diligent and meticulous in his work. While the workers were working, he would give up his rest and personally inspect the progress of the project.
Every day he would get a pile of kitchen knives and sharpen them one after another at the edge of the construction site, so that none of the workers dared to be lazy.
Today, Wen Jiaojiao came over, brought a lounge chair, and basked in the sun by the construction site. With her curly hair, red lips, and high heels, the workers kept staring at her, distracting themselves from their work.
The old chef was very dissatisfied.
Finally, he couldn't stand it anymore and kicked the person out.
Wen Jiaojiao chuckled.
"Uncle Geng, there's no obstruction here, the sun is shining brightly, the scenery is beautiful, it's perfect for sunbathing, I want to stay a little longer."
Click, she lit a cigarette.
He took a comfortable puff, and smoke rings drifted away one after another, attracting many old smokers among the workers again.
The old chef was furious and swung his kitchen knife: "I advise you to leave quickly and stop distracting them!"
"They don't want to work hard, how can you blame me? Uncle Geng, it's the workers who are not determined. For example, look over there..."
Wen Jiaojiao pointed with her cigarette to a place not far away, a little distance away from the construction site, where a group of children were surrounding a white-haired old man.
"Look at the class. The teacher is focused and the students are listening attentively. Why aren't they distracted by looking at me?"
The old chef followed Wen Jiaojiao's direction and looked at the temporary classroom that had been newly established in the town.
Like the Bloody Dawn base, the town where the survivors of City C gathered also had many children too young to work. Someone suggested that the children's education shouldn't be interrupted in the apocalypse, so some people volunteered to teach and set up a few makeshift classes.
The town is so crowded that these makeshift classrooms are set up on the outskirts of town, scattered wherever there is open space. Recently, a new teacher happened to set up a classroom near this construction site.
The construction site was noisy, but the old chef was alert. His ears and eyes were more sensitive than those of ordinary people, and he could hear the class content clearly even from a distance of dozens of meters.
... "Classmates, do you know what the second half of this poem is?"
... "I know, I know! Teacher Xiang, you explained this to us before at the base. The second half is 'Everything is revealed, everything is equal. How can I say I don't understand? It's simply too clear!' See if I remember it correctly!"
... "Haha, so you were my student before. I heard that many people died, but I didn't expect that you are still alive."
... "Yes, Teacher Xiang, I'm alive, and so are Weiwei, Zhao Xiaoyuan, and Daniu! However, Jiang Tutu and Azi seem to be dead. When did you come to town, Teacher? I haven't seen you before!"
... "Haha, that must be because you didn't see me. Why, you don't seem sad when you talk about your companion's death?"
... "You taught us, 'Only those who are carefree have a future,' so I think we should be indifferent to life and death. My mother also said, let go of sadness and move forward. We all need to strive to live!"
... "What a good child. You're right. In this new era and the great changes, we shouldn't focus on the life and death of a single individual. We should look further ahead and consider the future of humanity as a whole. Your mother isn't entirely right. Survival shouldn't be our goal. When necessary, for the sake of our community's future, we should also be indifferent to our own life and death. Death is nothing to be afraid of. The key is that humanity must develop and not perish."
... "Teacher, are you talking about 'sacrifice'? I know that when we attacked the Temple some time ago, we sacrificed many heroic warriors. They were very brave. I want to be as brave as them in the future and protect everyone!"
... "Haha, children, they are brave, but it's a foolish bravery. They were simply bewitched and brainwashed by some kind of hypocritical righteousness, which led them to do the foolish thing of 'sacrificing themselves for others'. Their sacrifice is narrow-minded, ineffective, and hinders the future of mankind. Children, as my students, you must distinguish right from wrong. Never let 'righteousness' blind your eyes and hearts, and don't foolishly sacrifice yourself to become so-called heroes. Your lives should be sacrificed at the right time and in the right place."
The children listened in confusion, their eyes wide open, not understanding the teacher's deeper meaning.
The old chef Geng Zhong also widened his eyes.
He was furious when he heard this.
"Beast! Who are you, beast, to dare to enter my territory and teach the children bad things? I'm so angry!"
The old hero carried a freshly sharpened kitchen knife and came to the temporary classroom with a few leaps.
Blade pointed at the teacher and shouted, "Name, age, place of origin, occupation before the apocalypse, work unit, and family members, tell me everything! You're a stranger, I've never seen you in this town before! No energy fluctuations? But your aura makes me think you've awakened. Tell me the truth!"
The children stepped back in panic, frightened by the old chef.
The child who was talking to Teacher Xiang stammered, "He, he used to be a teacher at the base. No, he's not a bad person..."
"My little boys, you've been fooled by him! This guy is definitely not a good person! Boys, all of you step back, I'm going to take action!"
The children were so scared that they quickly scattered, and the child who was talking hurriedly ran towards the patrol team passing by in the distance.
"Someone here wants to fight and kill someone! It's the old supervisor!" He went to complain to the old chef.
In the eyes of children, it is scary that the crazy old chef wants to kill the gentle and loving teacher.
