Chapter 1016

Black.

Solemn.

The brushwork was like dragons and phoenixes!

It was clearly a heaven-sized good deed, but for some reason, these three large characters, falling into Gao Yang's eyes, exuded endless coldness.

It was as if it were a plaque from hell, filled with endless majesty.

Lv Luo raised her head and muttered to herself, "This Liu the Great Philanthropist is truly a good person."

Gao Yang heard this, and his voice suddenly rang out, "Lv Luo, do you know what the most expensive thing in the world is?"

Lv Luo looked at Gao Yang with a face full of confusion, "The most expensive thing, could it be a priceless treasure jade? Or perhaps extremely precious calligraphy and paintings?"

Gao Yang shook his head and spoke to Lv Luo, "No, free things are the most expensive."

"For Wu Shi and her son, I used the strategist's method of entering the scheme himself, winning half a game against heaven, betting on the evil in human nature."

"As long as public opinion rises and forms a confrontation, this is a huge reputation!"

"Noble families in the world all love reputation; to them, reputation is more important than anything, and coupled with the special spreadability of this matter, it is impossible for them not to be tempted!"

"So Wu Shi and her son will be taken care of extremely well, but to put it bluntly, this is also interest!"

"But what about this Liu the Great Philanthropist? Once a natural disaster occurs, he sets up porridge sheds to relieve disaster victims, and even opens an Infant Care Hall to help refugees raise children for free. What is he after?"

"Too much money?"

These words left Lv Luo unable to speak.

After Gao Yang's words fell, she also noticed something unusual.

Could it be...

"Wu Guang, go knock on the door and say that I have arrived, and order this Liu the Great Philanthropist to come out and welcome me."

"When poor, one keeps to oneself; when successful, one helps the world. It is also possible that I have met a saint?"

Gao Yang stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes extremely deep.

Lv Luo was speechless, but her heart was suddenly tense.

Wu Guang stepped forward with big strides and knocked on the door.

"Lord Gao has arrived, order Liu the Great Philanthropist to come out and welcome him!" Wu Guang raised the token in his hand and said coldly.

An old man wearing a long gown saw the token, and his face was suddenly shocked.

Then, he hurriedly went inside to report.

In the main hall.

Liu Dashan wore a plain long robe and held a string of prayer beads in his hand.

He flicked the prayer beads on his hand, making a crackling sound.

"Father, this time the Living Yama is inquiring about Suiyang, and the commotion is not small."

A young man with a somewhat plump figure, looking like a smiling Maitreya Buddha, with a simple and honest face, was sighing.

"If you don't do anything wrong, you don't fear ghosts knocking on the door."

"The Living Yama is inquiring, what does it have to do with us? It is estimated that in a few days, the Living Yama will return to Changan."

Liu Dashan flicked the prayer beads on his hand and said lightly.

But it was also at this time.

The butler's voice rang out.

"Master, the Living Yama is here!"

"He specifically named the Master to go out and welcome him!"

Once these words were spoken.

Liu Dashan's face changed, and his fingers flicking the prayer beads suddenly stopped.

The young man's face was even more ugly, visibly panicked.

"Hong'er, you go down first."

"I will entertain Lord Gao alone; that will be enough."

Liu Dashan gave an order, and then moved his steps and left the mansion.

Soon.

Liu Dashan left the Infant Care Hall, and he saw Gao Yang standing with his hands behind his back, his face cold.

"Commoner Liu Dashan, pays respects to Lord Gao."

Gao Yang's gaze fell on Liu Dashan, and he scanned him up and down.

Subsequently, he said, "The name of Liu the Great Philanthropist, even to me, is like thunder to the ears, and I admire it very much!"

"This Infant Care Hall is a blessing to future generations, a heaven-sized good deed!"

Liu Dashan bent his waist and smiled, "Lord Gao is too kind."

"It is just that I cannot bear to see children suffer and the tragedy of exchanging children to eat occur, so I am just doing my part."

Gao Yang looked at Liu Dashan, who had no flaws, and said calmly.

"Liu the Great Philanthropist, I would like to go in and see the Infant Care Hall, may I?"

Liu Dashan stretched out his hand and said enthusiastically, "That is natural!"

"Lord Gao, please come in!"

Soon, Gao Yang and his party stepped into the Infant Care Hall and arrived at the main hall.

"Someone, serve tea to Lord Gao!"

Liu Dashan shouted.

The servant hurriedly went forward and soon brought a cup of hot tea.

"Liu the Great Philanthropist, don't be so polite; I am a very direct person, so I will get straight to the point."

Liu Dashan was stunned, and then said, "Lord Gao, please speak directly if you have anything to say."

"Not long ago, several refugees came to Changan City, accusing Liu the Great Philanthropist of killing their children, but they then mysteriously disappeared."

"This matter alarmed His Majesty, so I secretly visited Suiyang County, and while inquiring about politics, I also want to investigate the Infant Care Hall opened by Liu the Great Philanthropist!"

"Imperial orders cannot be disobeyed, so I will trouble Liu the Great Philanthropist to take me to see the children in the Infant Care Hall."

Children are not like adults; whether they are living well or not, he only needs one look to know the truth from the false.

So Gao Yang did not want to beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"Hiss!"

Liu Dashan looked shocked.

Although he had thought that Gao Yang would be very direct, he never expected that he would be so direct!

This was a direct face-to-face attack!

"I think there must be a misunderstanding in this; since that is the case, please follow me to the backyard, Lord Gao, and you will know at a glance."

"Commoner has a clear conscience."

Liu Dashan's expression was first shocked, and then he said to Gao Yang.

From his expression, Liu Dashan had no suspicious points; on the contrary, he was very calm.

Soon, Liu Dashan led Gao Yang toward the backyard.

Before entering the backyard, Gao Yang heard a burst of children's laughter.

Upon stepping into the backyard, children wearing coarse cloth long gowns came into view.

Three or four-year-old children were playing in the courtyard, while slightly older children were sweeping the floor and clearing weeds in the courtyard.

When Gao Yang stepped into the backyard, all the children looked over instantly.

There was confusion and curiosity in their eyes, but there was no fear; although they were wearing coarse cloth long gowns, they were very clean.

At this moment, even Gao Yang frowned for the first time.

The reaction of these children was definitely not faked.

Could it be that this Liu Dashan is truly a saint?
