Chapter 1620 – I am also from the Devil’s Canyon
Yancheng
Most of the citizens had already left, and only a few of the crowded restaurants were still open for business, the rest of the restaurants had already been bought by the Heavenly Awakening Sect, for the sake of serving the disciples who were still guarding the Yancheng.
The dishes had not arrived yet. There was a jug of wine on the table, and the wine cup was still empty. The two of them looked at each other speechlessly.
Most of the time, Zhuang Feifei was the one looking at An Zheng, while An Zheng was looking at the wine pot.
After not seeing her for so long, the First Mr still looked so sharp.
“Know what I’m thinking?”
“I don’t know.”
“Guess?”
“I don’t dare.”
“Why would I not dare?”
“When a woman wants to guess, there’s alwayroblem.”
“I don’t remember when you were a coward and when you were so young …”
Zhuang Feifei extended her hand out to indicate the height: “You dare to tease this old lady.”
Initially, An Zheng did not feel awkward, but after he said those words, he became embarrassed: “Young ignorant …”
“Regret it?”
Zhuang Feifei asked.
An Zheng’s next sentence, however, held a bit of Du Shoushou’s elegance: “It’s just that they have an innate pursuit for beauty.”
Zhuang Feifei was stunned for a moment, then pursed her lips and smiled. The wine cup was obviously empty, she had not even drunk a single sip, yet it seemed like she was drunk.
“Where have you been all these years?”
An Zheng finally found a topic to talk about.
“The closest thing to death.”
Zhuang Feifei reached out to take the flagon of wine. An Zheng first got up to pour her a cup of wine, then filled his own cup for his, “Don’t say anymore.
Zhuang Feifei shook her head: “In this world, other than you, I don’t seem to know who else to talk to … “Since Mr. Zhang is old, it’s better to have more happy things. I’m a gloomy person, and even after following me for so many years, I still haven’t had much fun. I’ve already snatched a lot from him, and his hunchback has gotten even more powerful in these past two years.”
When they arrived at the Yancheng, An Zheng intended to arrange for them to eat together. Old Master Zhang said that he was too tired from all the traveling, he just wanted to find a soft bed and have a good sleep for one day and one night, the other employees of the Zaocang were all intelligent people, so he naturally understood Old Master Zhang’s intentions and said that he couldn’t take it anymore. Some said that he could sleep for two days and two nights, while some said that he could sleep until the bed despised him.
“The restaurant is yours?”
Zhuang Feifei asked.
“Yes.”
An Zheng answered: “Du Shoushou arranged for people to buy it. The original owner’s relationship with the Heavenly Awakening Sect was quite good, and he had arranged for it to be withdrawn.
“The food was served so slowly, but it didn’t go out of order. It must have been because no one was looking for trouble.”
Zhuang Feifei sighed with emotion, then laughed out in embarrassment: “The main dish is made by someone else, and it’s not the original chef either. It’s temporarily replaced by someone from the Heavenly Awakening Sect, and I don’t think the taste will be very good either.”
“For me now, even something salted is delicious.”
Zhuang Feifei finished all the wine in the cup in one gulp, and before An Zheng could get up, she poured another cup herself and finished it. An Zheng had thought that she would pour the third cup, but in the end, she raised his neck and gulped down the last half bottle of wine, which made the woman feel a little better even as he drank. The wine flowed out of his mouth and onto his clothes, and for some reason, An Zheng felt his heart ache.
It wasn’t that he really had any extraordinary thoughts towards Zhuang Feifei, but rather, it was just that for a woman to reach such a state, one could imagine how much suffering and suffering she had endured.
“Alright.”
Zhuang Feifei finished the entire pot of wine, her eyes becoming misty: “Indeed, it’s better than drinking water from a swamp.”
An Zheng’s heart tightened.
“I call that place Demon Canyon. It’s not a very good name, but I can’t think of anything more suitable …” The era suddenly changed as time passed. The people that Zaocang and I brought along were also sent to this era, I thought that everyone would fall at the same place, but who would have thought that we would be sent to that valley. ”
She lowered her head and spoke as if she was drunk, but her mood was heavy, with Zhuang Feifei’s capacity for alcohol, forget about this pot of wine, even if there were three more bottles, she wouldn’t be drunk.
The general course of events was … Zhuang Feifei and the others entered the canyon and met that special flame. At night, those people or things that looked like they were dead could even be considered demons.
Relying on her reaction and prediction, Zhuang Feifei led his people forward. They only wanted to pass through the valley and leave that damned place.
Finally, they found a cave. Inside the cave, there was a strange looking corpse. In front of the corpse, there was a letter and a jade bottle.
The letter was also simple. If one wanted to leave, one of them had to make a sacrifice. They had to drink the poison in the jade bottle and use their own life in exchange for the lives of others.
At that time, Mr. Zhang was already worried, “This is most likely a lie, how could there be such a good thing. We don’t know how long this person has been dead, and the ghost flames in the canyon were most likely released by him. How could he possibly want to let someone in?”
Just as he finished speaking, someone immediately asked, “What if it’s true?”
Yeah, what if.
People didn’t give up hope because of the word ‘in case’.
The next question was who drank it.
Everyone had seen with their own eyes how terrifying that man’s ghost flame was. The contents of the jade bottle must be even more terrifying, so who would dare to drink it?
Elder Zhang saw that Zhuang Feifei was about to extend her hand to stop him: “I’m already the oldest and to the both of you, I’m just a burden. Besides, I’ve lived for so many years, it’s already more than enough. Especially your First Mr, you worked too hard in the past few years, and now, it’s finally time for you to free yourself … ”
Before he could even finish his words, Zhuang Feifei had already ordered him to stay put. Zhuang Feifei looked at old man Zhang and laughed: “It’s because you are old and have yet to do anything shameful, you have to end this peacefully.”
“If you want my opinion, then you have to ask Mr. Zhang to drink. He’s right, he’s already so old, it’s more than enough.”
“Right, we can’t always drink.”
Someone started a flurry of discussion, “This place is not our place, it’s the First Mr that you brought here, so you have to take responsibility for this.”
“Yeah, I followed you.”
Zhuang Feifei was not angry at all upon hearing these words, because she could understand that these people were already on the verge of collapse from all the worries they had inside Demon Canyon. Now that they finally saw hope, even if it was just a slim hope, even if it was just a scam, how could they possibly give up their lives at this time?
“I’ll take care of it.”
Zhuang Feifei nodded her head: “I brought you guys here, I brought you guys out.”
It was unknown who suddenly said, “Since you are going to die anyway, why don’t …” Why don’t we let the brothers have some comfort? How long have we been in this damn place? It would be a waste if you died. ”
If it were not in that kind of environment, this kind of thing might never have come out, and even in that kind of environment, Zhuang Feifei did not dare believe that someone would say such words, because they were her trusted followers.
“What the fuck are you talking about!”
The employees who were loyal to Zhuang Feifei were immediately angered, and immediately unsheathed their blades.
“Is what I said wrong?”
The person who spoke was probably going all out. He already had some ill intentions towards Zhuang Feifei, but since he had already said it, there was nothing to be afraid of.
“It wouldn’t bity if such a beautiful woman died?” How long have we been holding this in, brothers? ”
“In my opinion, it would be better if … First Mr, do you pity us? ”
Someone actually agreed.
Seeing that his trusted aides were about to attack, Zhuang Feifei waved his hand, “It’s not worth it. You want to risk your life for these people? You guys really aren’t qualified … Even if I were to turn into dried up bones, you all wouldn’t have the qualifications. In this world, there are only a few men that I, Zhuang Feifei, have taken a fancy to. ”
There were people who felt that Zhuang Feifei was going to attack them, since her strength was not bad, but she was still … Zhuang Feifei was not the strongest one, she was not known for her cultivation, and the guy who spoke previously was considered to be the strongest amongst the remaining people, which was why he was so confident.
“It’s already f * cking late, what are you pretending for?”
“Yeah, aren’t you a bit prettier?”
It was not that Zhuang Feifei had never considered their strength before, adding all the trusted aides around her together, she might not be able to defeat all of them. It was just that in the end, all of them would die and she would be unable to escape from the humiliation, thus she did not hesitate and directly drank the jade bottle in her mouth.
She also didn’t think that she didn’t die and even obtained the inheritance of that dried up bone, so there were times where she didn’t understand. Until now, she still didn’t know who this expert was that thought before he died … How many people had the fire released from his body killed? He had killed so many people after his death, so he should have been a fierce and fierce person. But why did he chooserson who was willing to die for someone else to inherit his ability?
An Zheng listened quietly, and when he heard those people speak dirty words, his eyebrows twitched.
Zhuang Feifei still did not understand An Zheng enough. If she understood An Zheng like Qu Liuxi did, then the moment she raised her eyebrows, she would know what An Zheng was going to do.
“I won’t kill them right now?”
An Zheng asked.
The ten odd people who arrived at Yancheng earlier than Zhuang Feifei and the rest were already settled down, because the people from Heavenly Awakening Sect did not know what had happened.
“Too many have died.”
Zhuang Feifei lowered her head: “I’ve brought more than two hundred people with me, and now there’s only these twenty people left. I don’t want any more to die.”
“I don’t understand.”
An Zheng shook his head: “It’s possible that I don’t understand you because I don’t have that kind of experience, or perhaps women are so stupid that it makes people angry.”
He waved his hand, “It’s time to serve the dishes.”
The Heavenly Awakening Sect disciple outside the door found it a little difficult to enter, and said in a low voice, “Sect Master, we haven’t ordered anything yet.”
An Zheng acknowledged: “Then let’s order.”
The disciple handed the menu over to An Zheng with both hands, who shook his head: “No need for this, where are the dozen people that came in first? “I want their heads, hurry up …”
An Zheng said: “Bring in a few more jugs of wine, and tell those people that only one person will be able to survive. I said, who is the last survivor, and bring that person over here.”
He looked out the window and said, “I am also from the Devil’s Canyon.”
