chun jie di xiao long

Chapter 456 Beyond the Long Pavilion, Beside the Ancient Road, Fragrant Grass Reaching the Sky

Zhou Ze remembered Lawyer An once mentioning he had a lover,

Named Feng Si;

After encountering that woman named Suancai, oh no, Cuihua,

"Fourth Master,"

These two words kept rolling off her tongue, almost becoming a memorized mantra.

Unexpectedly,

They were meeting here.

A bit embarrassed, and a bit caught off guard;

Lawyer An originally intended to cling to the thighs of the salted fish (lazy bum),

And return in glory as a meritorious subject after achieving fame and success,

Making Feng Si kneel before him and lick his boots.

This mentality was like that of a pathetic man dumped by his ex-girlfriend, always harboring a childish feeling of "You'll regret not choosing me for the rest of your life."

However,

Dreams are plump,

Reality is bony,

Meeting again,

You sit comfortably in a pavilion, cooking Suancai (pickled cabbage),

I run away in a panic like I'm burdened with debt,

The contrast,

Is a bit too clear and stark.

Zhou Ze looked at Old An, and he noticed a hint of loneliness in Lawyer An's eyes, and on his face, a dispirited expression.

Somewhat surprised,

Lawyer An, who always seemed to be high on energy, shouting "Strive! Strive! Strive again!" in an attempt to reverse the salted fish atmosphere of the bookstore,

Would actually have a moment of depression.

Zhou Ze reached out and placed his hand on Lawyer An's shoulder, gently patting it.

"I'm fine."

Lawyer An smiled at Zhou Ze,

Thanking him for his concern,

Although the boss was a bit of a salted fish, he still knew how to offer this kind of free comfort to his subordinates at crucial moments.

"Fourth Master, right? I've brought you your enemy, I'll hand him over to you, you guys can chat slowly, I'll take my leave first."

"..." Lawyer An.

Zhou Ze took two steps back,

He was a ghost messenger, occasionally wandering back to hell, although sometimes it wasn't in accordance with the rules, it wasn't a big deal, and he wouldn't be held accountable for anything.

Cuihua stared intently at Zhou Ze, and when she saw Zhou Ze trying to retreat, she subconsciously prepared to rush out of the pavilion.

I must say,

Last time, this woman randomly possessed a physical body after entering the Yang realm (mortal world),

So it wasn't obvious,

But now,

Her true form looked,

Quite tall, and quite large, but not fat, giving off a fair and tender feeling, with a rare Western flavor for an Eastern woman.

Rural mothers-in-law liked this type of daughter-in-law the most, good for having children!

Fourth Master stood up,

Cuihua didn't dare to move rashly, and continued to squat down, observing the cooking of the Suancai.

Honestly speaking, Feng Si looked quite good, with a very pale and handsome face, and exuding a scholarly air.

It was the air of an ancient scholar, the opposite of Gao Xiaosong.

Zhou Ze secretly made a comparison,

Hmm,

Not as good-looking as his own Old Xu,

But not bad either.

If Lawyer An had taken Feng Si as his subordinate and carefully cultivated him without any consideration for his "appearance," Zhou Ze wouldn't believe it.

In this world, looking at ability is an unchanging principle.

But most people can't achieve absolute superiority in ability, so the masses still can't escape the fate of judging by appearance.

Ugly,

Is a kind of original sin.

"Brother An, want to come in and sit?"

Fourth Master pointed to the pavilion,

"It's been a long time, I miss you terribly, let's chat?"

Lawyer An didn't move,

Zhou Ze was slowly retreating.

"That friend, don't leave." Feng Si pointed at Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze also stopped moving.

In fact, these few steps back had created a small distance between the two, and there would be a sense of layering when launching an attack later.

Fighting in hell,

Is too risky.

An escaped criminal,

A public enemy of hell,

A little too high-profile, and it will attract thousands to trample on you.

But waiting to die was even more impossible.

Creating a little distance was also for convenience when fighting for their lives later.

Old An was in charge of covering,

He was in charge of charging,

The two had cooperated a few times, so they had some experience.

However,

Lawyer An sighed,

And said directly:

"Si'er, what if I say I don't want to chat?"

"Since Brother An doesn't want to talk about personal feelings, then Xiao Si...

I can only talk to you about public affairs."

The meaning was very simple,

If you don't drink a toast, you'll have to drink a penalty.

"Very good, I also miss Cuihua's Suancai."

Lawyer An agreed and walked towards the pavilion.

Zhou Ze naturally followed along, and at the same time said softly:

"He's a patrol inspector, and you're also a patrol inspector, what are you afraid of?"

"Boss, unless you wake that one up, the two of us combined are no match for him, you underestimate the strength of a patrol inspector with an official position.

Right now,

I can only be considered a rascal in decline."

Zhou Ze suddenly understood,

So the strength of a patrol inspector had a lot to do with whether they had an official position or not.

No wonder he was puzzled that even a silly maid, Cuihua, by Feng Si's side could be so powerful, and the gap between Old An and her was so big, the reason was actually here.

Walking into the pavilion,

The smell of Suancai inside was strong.

Suancai is appetizing and good with rice. For those who like it, it is definitely something they can't give up.

Of course,

It's not realistic to just eat Suancai,

Therefore,

There were also noodles and fish chunks on the table.

The three men sat down,

Cuihua glanced at Zhou Ze and then continued to observe the cooking.

Fourth Master reached out and pushed the blue seal in front of him forward, pointing at it and saying:

"Brother An, it's a good thing I was close, if this seal had flown into someone else's hands, the trouble would have been great."

Zhou Ze didn't know what this thing was, but he could probably guess what it was for.

Lawyer An smiled and said:

"Why were you so close?"

Fourth Master's eyes narrowed.

That's right,

Why were you so close?

Hell is so big,

You just happened to be picnicking here?

Fooling ghosts... oh no, fooling people?

Fourth Master nodded and said directly:

"I came to clean up the mess, I thought that Paifang (archway) would suck in some things that needed me to deal with, I didn't expect that Brother An, you guys would also be sucked in."

Very straightforward,

Extremely straightforward,

Not at all like the TV series routines,

The official openly tells you,

I'm just sitting here collecting black money and preparing to help with things.

"Heh."

Lawyer An snorted.

Since Feng Si was so straightforward, he had nothing to say.

It was Feng Si who had denounced him in the first place,

And now it was also Feng Si who was doing illegal activities,

But you can't scold him.

Lawyer An knew that since he was in this hellish system, it was inevitable for everyone to break the law and commit crimes in private.

There was a saying circulating in hell,

If Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's listening dog were to swallow the officials of the underworld one by one, there might be innocent ones.

But if the listening dog were to swallow every other one, there would definitely be omissions.

This is the current state of hell.

"Was the Paifang thing your doing?" Zhou Ze asked.

Great fog,

Mutated vengeful spirits,

What a big deal.

"This friend is joking, how could Xiao Si have this ability?

I'm just running errands for someone,

Xiao Si is short,

Can't handle such big things."

"The Suancai is ready."

Cuihua said.

Fourth Master nodded and said, "Let's eat."

The fish chunks and noodles were all cooked, and they could be scooped out after stirring them in the pot.

In a moment,

Three bowls of steaming Suancai fish noodles were served.

Fourth Master picked up his chopsticks,

And ate heartily.

Lawyer An also picked up his chopsticks and ate heartily.

Zhou Ze suddenly understood, this was hell, it was okay to eat.

He also picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

Being able to eat so happily without taking the Other Shore Flower oral solution,

Was like taking advantage for Boss Zhou!

"Slurp! Slurp! Slurp! Slurp! Slurp!!!!!"

In the originally tense pavilion,

All that echoed now was the sound of eating noodles.

The tall and plump Cuihua stood on the side,

Watching the three men eating so happily,

A satisfied smile appeared on the corner of her mouth,

Like she was watching three pigs in her pigsty, eating well and growing fat obediently.

Faced with the food made by their woman, whether it's delicious or not, men will try their best to eat it, even if they are full, men believe this is the woman's love for them.

In fact, what women harvest is the pleasure of feeding pigs.

After eating,

Zhou Ze put down his chopsticks,

Actually,

The taste wasn't that good.

The things eaten in hell are definitely not genuine, they are usually offerings.

There is no difference in taste, no difference in texture, but it just lacks that little bit of meaning, that feeling of eating something truly genuine, it seems insignificant, but if it's really missing, you really feel a great sense of regret.

No wonder Cuihua ate so happily when she came to the human world and faced the Suancai noodles made by Xu Qinglang.

"Anything else?"

Lawyer An pushed away the bowls and chopsticks in front of him and went straight to the point:

"Whether you want to let us go or fight, give me a word, and I'll accept it."

Zhou Ze shook his head,

Lawyer An at this time was desperately trying to save face,

Like he was attending his ex-girlfriend's wedding,

Stubborn,

Strong.

"No fighting, no fighting." Fourth Master took the towel from Cuihua and wiped the corner of his mouth, saying: "Brother An sent Cuihua back last time, this time, I definitely have to return the favor.

However, I'm more interested in this friend, my ghost jade, is in this friend's hands, right?"

Fourth Master pointed at Zhou Ze and continued:

"Brother An, what is his relationship with you?

Cuihua said, you recognized a ghost messenger as your boss in the human world?"

"He is my opportunity." Lawyer An also spoke frankly, "A hidden dragon waiting for its time."

"Oh."

Fourth Master nodded, without asking further, but directly said:

"Then the ghost jade, can be considered Xiao Si's greeting gift to this friend."

Honestly speaking,

Feng Si, in terms of being a person, was really impeccable.

But Zhou Ze felt a little uncomfortable,

This person,

Was too hypocritical,

How was the ghost jade formed?

It was nourished by the lives of ordinary people,

He treated it as his own,

And said he was giving it to him?

Where's your face?

Fourth Master stood up, turned his back to Zhou Ze and Lawyer An, facing out of the pavilion, towards the ancient road,

And sighed with emotion:

"Brother An, a storm is coming;

Xiao Si is down here,

And feels panicked."

Lawyer An didn't say anything.

Zhou Ze reached out and poked Lawyer An's shoulder,

Lawyer An looked at Zhou Ze, somewhat puzzled.

"Is he asking for comfort and a hug?"
