Chapter 1123 – Human Blood Steamed Bun
An Zheng sat on the stool tiredly, the sky was getting darker, estimating the time, it was the darkest time before dawn. In the end, many people came to the Rain Pavilion to kill him, but Zhu Xiaojian never showed up.
An Zheng did not curse nor get angry, because he knew who Zhu Xiaojian was from the beginning.
“Uncle, I killed people overnight. Are you waiting for my death to confirm your prophecy?”
An Zheng also took ouipe. He asked the old man who sold buns for some tobacco to light it up and took a deep breath. The old man sat behind An Zheng and sighed, then looked at the steamed bun that had already calmed down on the table.
“Count me in.”
He picked up the bun and returned it to the drawer, then squatted beside An Zheng: “Did you get betrayed?”
“Uncle, you speak so much. You have seen so many life and death situations, and you are still alive and well …” It’s not easy. ”
The old man laughed: “Because I only sell steamed buns.”
An Zheng: “This is not a good reason … What position did you have in the DEA? ”
An Zheng took off the plate and gave it to the old man: “This plate, is it bigger than you or smaller than you?”
The old man helplessly shook his head and said, “I won’t be able to sell buns in the future.”
He clasped his hands together, “This lowly official pays his respects to the chief administrative officer.”
“You are unlucky.”
An Zheng took back the sign: “You have sold thirty years of steamed buns in deer city, but your rank is still not as high as mine. Don’t you feel aggrieved?”
“Thirty-six years.”
The old man stood up straight and took off his dirty patched clothes. Inside, there was a black DEA embroidered shirt with purple and gold lines. The moment he stood up, his bent body suddenly straightened, causing some people’s heart to ache for him.
“It’s not 30 years, it’s 36 years. Ever since Nie Xiangtai left the Yancheng to open the Tai’an College, I’ve been selling buns here. The reason why my position has always been like this is probably because I don’t have to work so hard and just sell buns. ”
An Zheng: “This joke is a bit cold.”
The old man laughed, “Sir, are you blaming the Public Prosecutor?”
An Zheng: “No, it’s my fault I don’t have enough strength.”
The old man sternly replied, “Your excellency is right.”
Right at this time, a faint layer of red appeared in the sky in the east. It quickly turned completely red and brought along the golden sun as it reluctantly rose from the horizon, as if it was fondling the warm bed at home. It was another new day, another new beginning.
It was unknown when the rain had stopped, but the amount of water on the ground just barely reached his feet. A group of people walked through the puddles of water, not caring at all about the expensive boots on their feet. This group of people looked very imposing, and it originated from the DEA’s embroidered clothes on their bodies. The morning was a little cold, but it seemed that these people were very hot, and as they walked over, the scattered drops of rain fell on their brocades, and the water they picked up refracted the reluctant rainbows.
Zhu Xiaojian was exhausted, but he couldn’t hide the excitement in his eyes. It was something wrapped in a black cloth. After it fell on the ground, it rolled a few times and very quickly, it dyed the water red. The blood that seeped out from the black cloth still had a little fishy smell.
“It’s good that you’re not dead.”
Zhu Xiaojian sat down on the chair, picked up the steamed bun that had just been heated up, and started to eat: “If you die, it’s the most boring thing to add on some sort of reward to the dead. Even if I were to give you an official who’s even older than me and you don’t even have any family or friends around you, no one would be able to share your glory. What’s more, death is death, what’s the use of having more benefits? ”
He quickly finished the steamed bun and let out a comfortable moan.
“Your mission is over. Go back to the Yancheng and report in.”
Zhu Xiaojian escaped from his embrace and threw an envelope onto the table, “Take this with you. When we reach DEA, you will be promoted to the position of the Public Prosecutor’s field officer. You can stay in Yancheng and rest. ”
The old man who sold buns forced a smile. He picked up the envelope and looked at it before putting it away, “This humble servant thanks, Sir.”
“No need to thank me …” You have been in Yancheng for thirty-six years, and it has been a long time. Most of the information was sent from you, in the DEA’s credit book, there was a very important note for you. I know you are not feeling well, but to go back to the Yancheng to retire? You worked hard for thirty-six years in exchange foension? “But there’s no other way, I am not the only one in charge of DEA. There is still the Lord Messenger, and the Seat …”
“I understand.”
The old man lowered his head. “I’ve been here for thirty-six years. After I return, I still need to be interrogated to see if I’ve been bribed.”
Zhu Xiaojian nodded. “It’s good that you understand, you can just endure it. I will transfer you to my side when I get back. Honestly speaking, you have been outside for thirty-six years. After being promoted to the field officer, you will also be excluded from Yancheng. This is something that I can already think of without reminding you. He’s different from another person. This guy just entered the DEA and already became a supervisor officer, he looks like he’s more lucky than you, but you can live for 36 years for a mission. Him and me … There’s no tomorrow. ”
The old man clasped his fist and bid his farewell. He didn’t hold back in the slightest.
Zhu Xiaojian poured himself a cup of cold tea and gulped it down.
“Blame me?”
he asked.
An Zheng did not speak.
“I know what you mean. If there’s only cursing left in your heart, then don’t talk about it anymore.”
Zhu Xiaojian pointed to the black cloth package, and a person went over to pick it up. Inside the bag was a white-haired but blood-stained head. An Zheng had seen this person before and could guess that it would end like this.
Nie Xiang Tai’s head.
“Your Majesty does not like to doubt people, because he does not doubt people. But, as long as Master Your Majesty does not doubt us, the people of DEA can’t help but doubt him. The existence of the DEA was precisely because the Lord of Your Majesty was well aware of his own weakness. He treated others too generously, so many things had to be done by the DEA. If Nie Xiang Tai really was jusrincipal, he could just enjoy the respect of everyone else … However, he was greedy, and many people were greedy. You know how terrifying Immortal Teacher’s Estate’s control over the mortal world is, but it’s different here. Your Majesty has always been fighting with his own life, but he’s still fighting with these three words. It’s just that it’s different. ”
An Zheng raised his head, and said word by word. “What does it have to do with me?”
Zhu Xiaojian helplessly shook his head: “You can complain, but don’t go overboard.”
An Zheng laughed: “I’ll carry the thunder for you, don’t you think I should go overboard?”
Zhu Xiaojian: “You are already someone from the DEA.”
“Life is my own.”
An Zheng’s answer was resolute and decisive.
Zhu Xiaojian was silent for a while, then said: “Whoever’s life is their own... Since we’re not talking about feelings, not about feelings, let’s talk about terms. How much do you think you’re worth for what you’ve done? ”
An Zheng pondered for a while, then said seriously, “I want to go to the Yancheng, no matter how many slots there are in the Sulan County branch court, no matter how many nobles there are, they must all be mine.”
Zhu Xiaojian said: “It’s too light, think of another one.”
An Zheng continued, “My sister will stay in the Sulan County branch court. You can guarantee that she won’t be harmed. I’ve helped you take the lives of so many people, and the only thing I ask of you is that you protect the life of this person.
“Alright.”
Zhu Xiaojian stood up. “You should go, the people from the Sulan County Branch are still waiting for you at the inn. You have already completed your second mission and acquired ten Essence Crystal s. The third task point is at the bottom of the lake, at the bottom. There is no need to think about it, I changed the task at the last minute … The previous mission was too simple for you. The hundreds of heads outside told me that you were stronger, so you had to change your mission. At the bottom of the lake, there was a sunken boat. Back then, when Lord Your Majesty was playing at the bottom of the lake, someone struck and sunk that boat.
An Zheng asked: “So is this trip out to train the Sulan County Courtyard’s mission, or the DEA’s mission?”
“Is there any difference?”
Zhu Xiaojian stood up and took deep breaths. In the morning, his breath felt very white.
“So tired …”
He patted An Zheng’s shoulder, “I just told that person that you and I don’t havomorrow, it was actually wrong … I don’t have a tomorrow, you do. ”
He took out a white jade token and gave it to An Zheng: “This is the deputy director’s plate, from now on, your position in my yamen is only a little lower than mine. Give me back the one with the security officer, it’s iron, not worth anything. This piece is made of jade, if you are down and out, you can still exchange it for wine. ”
An Zheng: “You are also a weirdo in DEA right?”
Zhu Xiaojian: “Be more respectful to me.”
An Zheng took the plate and passed the official’s plate over.
Zhu Xiaojian looked at the sky: “You killed hundreds of people here, do you know how many of them I killed last night?”
“I don’t want to know.”
“If you know … “Seven thousand.”
Zhu Xiaojian rubbed his eyes: “I really don’t want to kill people.”
An Zheng had nothing to say, and didn’t want to say anything more.
In the tavern, Yuan Yandi leaned on the doorframe and waited for An Zheng to return with a stalk of Fur Grass that he had pulled out from nowhere in his mouth. This was a woman witersonality that didn’t seem like a woman at all, yet his entire body was filled with a feminine aura. When Little Fatso, Lafite, saw that An Zheng had returned, he ran out excitedly.
Yuan Yandi spat out the furry grass and turned around to enter the house as if he was not waiting for An Zheng at all.
“Senior Brother, where did you go?”
“Eat the steamed buns.”
“You ate all night?”
“Right.”
“Then how many buns do you need?”
“Human Blood Steamed Bun.”
An Zheng asked: “Do you want to eat?”
Lafite quickly shook her head. “I don’t want to eat …” I will definitely not eat. ”
An Zheng patted his shoulder, “It’s best if you don’t eat them. If you don’t eat them now, then never again. Because once you eauman blood mantou, your heart changes. I feel different now, different from before. I ate hundreds of human blood steamed buns in one night, and all I wanted was to be a little closer to her, a little closer. ”
Inside the tavern, Yuan Yandi’s footsteps stopped, and his hands trembled unnoticeably. Then, she pretended as if nothing had happened as she put her hands into his pockets and continued walking forward in a sloppy manner. No one saw the change in her eyes, and no one saw that it was a sign of regret …
She looked up at the sky and saw nothing beyond the roof.
However, she saw that Qu Shan and Qi Lianyin were standing on the second floor with their hands on the railing, looking at An Zheng and laughing coldly.
