  Xu Zhengsheng's smile became even brighter: "There's no need to be so courteous. Since you and I already know each other, we will naturally have to move around more in the future. Don't you think that being courteous will make us separate?"

  An Zheng said: "Master has taught me a lesson, next time, I will not dare to be rash."

  Xu Zhengsheng laughed: "Alright then, since it is just local specialties, I will accept it. I've arranged for a banquet to be arranged at the Des Moines, and you and I will be there in a moment. Let me introduce you to a few of my colleagues. When everyone is familiar with one another, we can help each other out if there's anything you need help with. "

  Of course, An Zheng wouldn't fall out with the's Prefect so early on in the morning. He would make use of this guy to make sure that people didn't know his background.

  "Look, I came in a hurry. I rushed to the mansion right after I returned from the military academy. I didn't even change a single piece of clothing." How about this, this lowly one will first go back and change his clothes, and then wait for Master at the Desolate Jade Tower? "

  Xu Zhengsheng laughed: "Alright then, since that's the case, you go back first, we'll meet later."

  An Zheng got up and took his leave, and when he left, he could not help but laugh.

  It was just a gift, so this guy immediately stopped talking about how reasonable he was. Actually, An Zheng was very clear that since he crippled Gou Hanshi, Xu Zhengsheng definitely would not feel well. It would be weird if he didn't have a close relationship with Xu Zhengsheng to be a constable. But Xu Zhengsheng was not a useless idiot, he knew the importance of this. An Zheng gave him a way down, so of course he had to go down the steps.

  In fact, from the moment they entered the door, An Zheng and Xu Zhengsheng had not even exchanged thirty words. However, this process was very important.

  After An Zheng left, Xu Zhengsheng opened the box that An Zheng had brought with him. Inside was a Eastern Pearl and an account book.

  Dongzhu was the size of a child's fist. Even if it wasn't priceless and worth tens of thousands of silver taels, it still wouldn't be enough to buy it. An Zheng was very satisfied with how generous he was being. When he opened the account book, his face changed again, because the account book belonged to the generous agency. Inside, there was a clear note of how much money he had taken from the generous agency, when, how many times, and how many each time.

  "Ignorant bastard!"

  With a smack on the table, Xu Zhengsheng walked around the room quickly.

  The door was opened by someone outside. Master Liu who was in charge of the court came in, and upon seeing Xu Zhengsheng's appearance, he immediately closed the door: "What happened?"

  Xu Zhengsheng pointed to the account book on the table. Liu Suo quickly went over to take a look, and his expression also changed. When he saw Dong Zhu again, he immediately understood what had happened. "This was sent by An Zheng?"

  Xu Zhengsheng said: "He personally sent it."

  Liu Suo let out a long breath, "That's good, that means this young man knows how to treat people. He personally sent this account book to you, my lord, and a pearl. His attitude is already very clear, I do not want to have any irreconcilable conflict with my lord. Thus, when it comes to this matter, Gou Hanshi, you can stop. "

  Xu Zhengsheng said: "I have also considered this, this An Zheng personally came to visit, and is extremely respectful to me. If he were to hand over the account book to the military, it would be a disaster for me as well. On the other hand, the Empress Dowager Su s were afraid that their subordinates were not many people. "If you knock me down, there will be someone from Her Majesty's side to do this."

  "So, you can have this person."

  Liu Sui said: "An Zheng seems to have an attitude that doesn't match his age. For someone at this age, it's impossible to do it without the guidance of a large clan. Therefore, this subordinate feels that I should at least maintain a friendly relationship with this person. "

  Xu Zhengsheng nodded: "Send someone to the Desolate Land and change the table. "Before, I ordered an ordinary banquet and had someone to tell the people of the Desolate Land to change it to the best noodles."

  Liu Sui bowed, "This subordinate will go and make the arrangements."

  He took two steps and then turned around, "This person cannot be kept alive … "Should I go to the military and give him some money so that he can die suddenly in his cell?"

  Xu Zhengsheng waved his hand, "You should go and make the arrangements. Without me to take care of this ungrateful bastard, how can he have what he has today? You actually dare to charge me, this is clearly not a good intention. "

  Liu Suo nodded, "Alright, then I'll arrange it as soon as possible."

  On the main street, An Zheng and Du Shoushou walked side by side.

  "An Zheng, why did you give that rotten thing such a big Eastern Pearl? "That fellow must be a greedy official. Otherwise, how could he have raised a subordinate like him to be so unreasonable?"

  Du Shoushou asked.

  An Zheng laughed and retorted, "Should such a greedy official die?"

  "Damn it!"

  "But we can't kill him yet, because killing him will drag us all into it. You and I will treat Xu Zhengsheng as our enemy, but because of that Eastern Pearl and the account book, Xu Zhengsheng no longer views us as his enemies. "

  An Zheng said: "I only used one Eastern Pearl to make the enemy treat us as friends. People gathered together as a group, and most of the people that Xu Zhengsheng came in contact with were also greedy officials like him. All the men in the army were real men. In the future, with Xu Zhengsheng helping us get our breath, we will be able to understand more information and inside information about the officials in Fanggu. "What a great spy, this is something that Dongzhu gave us."

  Du Shoushou asked: "Isn't there another account book? That is Xu Zhengsheng's old life."

  "It's fake."

  An Zheng laughed: "The account book was written by Mad Qu overnight."

  "Oh my god, aren't you afraid of him seeing through the fake account book!"

  "Do you think that Xu Zhengsheng will remember when he took out so much silver from the generous agency?"

  Du Shoushou was stunned for a moment, and then, he slapped An Zheng's shoulder. This old fox! "

  An Zheng laughed: "You're too courteous, if you don't want this kind of person to die, the heavens will not tolerate this. Letting Xu Zhengsheng kill Gou Hanshi is cleaner than letting us do it ourselves. "

  Du Shoushou asked: "Why didn't I see how you were so sinister in the past?"

  An Zheng laughed: "Aiyah, how can I let you see this so easily? Last time when you went to the toilet, someone suddenly threw a rock at you and I won't say anything."

  Du Shoushou: "Mn, that's right... The heck! The one who threw the stone was you! "

  Chapter 74 - Yaksha

  Gu Qianye had once asked An Zheng a question... Are you a good person?

  An Zheng did not answer.

  Maybe men and women have different ideas of good people, especially in certain ways. For example, when a woman seriously tells a man that you are a good person, she often means that I don't like you. But the good guy that Gu Qianye asked was not this. She was curious as to why An Zheng was such a cruel person despite clearly being a good person. Most of the time, An Zheng's methods were even more ruthless than the bad guys.

  An Zheng did not answer, but actually, he had an answer in his heart.

  An Zheng treats nice people better than nice people. An Zheng was even worse than bad people.

  So he was a very, very attractive man, even though he was only fifteen years old.

  When An Zheng returned to his residence, the Heavenly Awakening Sect's signboard was already hung at the door. This sign was made by someone when An Zheng was in Fringe City, and he dragged it all the way to the capital. Two big guys were wiping the plaque on the ladder, and greeted An Zheng when they saw him.

  People in the
outside world were curious about the background of this Heavenly Awakening Sect. Hundreds of people entered the city, and no one dared to underestimate the sect that had so many disciples. However, there were only a few people in Heavenly Awakening Sect. An Zheng was not only the sect master, but also the teacher of Du Shoushou and the others, and also the main butler of this sect. As the head of the sect and a butler, he served the disciples well.

  Just as An Zheng was about to enter, he suddenly felt a murderous intent from behind him.

  Killing intent was actually something very mysterious.

  Take an example... Six years ago, General Fang Zhiji carefully selected eighteen hundred people to rebuild Tie Liuhuo. Six years later, Tie Liuhuo had reached the size of three thousand six hundred. After rebuilding Tie Liuhuo, Fang Zhiji only said that he was training the troops and brought 1800 Tie Liuhuo away from the capital. No one knew where he went. It was summer when they returned, but when they entered the city, everyone felt chills on their backs.

  That night, Tie Liuhuo received his Swallow King's inspection at the city's drill grounds. After Swallow King left, Tie Liuhuo immediately fell asleep on the arena. Some of the disabled veterans who were responsible for daily chores told others later … That night, not a single mosquito could be found within a thousand meters of the drill grounds.

  An Zheng could feel the killing intent. He was the head of the Great Western Ming Fa Si, his perception towards things like killing intent was much sharper than others.

  However, when he turned around, the killing intent had disappeared.

  Then, he saw a guy in white clothes not far away, holding an oil-paper umbrella and looking at him from the street corner.

  The afterglow of the setting sun was still there. There was no rain in the clear sky.

  The man held up an umbrella.

  Seeing this person, An Zheng suddenly wanted to curse.

  He told Du Shoushou to go in first, and then walked towards there alone. Du Shoushou didn't know what had happened, but he stood guard at the door and looked at An Zheng.

  "I thought you died somewhere."

  An Zheng said as he walked.

  That person replied with a smile, "If we analyze the various circumstances, I will live longer than you. And just now, if I had wanted to, you would have been dead. "

  An Zheng curled his lips: "What are you doing here?"

  That person sincerely said, "I missed you."

  An Zheng: "Scram."

  The man shrugged his shoulders: "This is not like the famous Heavenly Awakening Sect's way of entertaining guests."

  "Concealment."

  An Zheng muttered to himself, then pointed to the residence: "Do you want to come in and take a seat? If you don't want to, don't force yourself."

  The person who put down the oil-paper umbrella was actually Chen Shaobai, whom he had not seen for more than three years.

  "Forget it, you know that I'm not that Chen Shaobai, but Du Shoushou and the others don't know, how troublesome is it to explain it? There's a barbecue stand at the end of the street.

  "Afraid of you?"

  An Zheng went back to talk to Du Shoushou first. He said that he was a friend and would explain the situation to him after he came back. After that, he and Chen Shaobai turned and walked in circles until they arrived at a barbeque stall that was very far away.

  "Is this the street you were talking about?"

  "I didn't say which street."

  Chen Shaobai sat down and called out to the owner: "Come on, two big waists."

  An Zheng looked at him and asked, "Do you want to add Yang Bao?"

  Chen Shaobai said, "Oh, you're at a disadvantage too."

  An Zheng rolled his eyes at him. "Why did you come to the Fanggu?"

  Chen Shaobai: "Doing business."

  He then ordered some cold dishes, asked for fifty meat skewers and a pot of wine, "Let's talk about you first. Weren't we supposed to have a feast with Fanggu's Master Xu Zhengsheng, why are you so happy to follow me out for a barbecue? Aren't you afraid that the old master will blame you all and send you all to the Fanggu's dungeon? "

  An Zheng said: "I let Mad Qu do this, this kind of thing is just for show. The Mad Qu will tell them that I'm going to eat with someone from the army. I really can't leave. "Would he really go to the military to ask?"

  Chen Shaobai: "You've learnt bad."

  When the barbecue came, he lowered his head and ate without a word, as if he hadn't eaten in three or five days. Such a handsome young master in flowing white clothes, eating full of oil was a disgrace to him. People who passed by would cast sidelong glances at him.

  Chen Shaobai waved his hand at An Zheng: "Give me your hand. I recently learned a consummate skill in the sect, which is able to predict danger just by looking at your hand gestures. (TL: UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU) You made such a big fuss when you just arrived in Fanggu, who knew how many people you would offend. "Come, come, come. I will send you a divination today for free."

  An Zheng reached out his hand in doubt, and then, Chen Shaobai lowered his head and used An Zheng's sleeve to wipe the oil on his mouth: "You're so stupid, why are you still in the Jianghu?"

  An Zheng: "Motherf * cker … "I was too careless."

  Chen Shaobai said: "I heard that you rejected the arrangement for the military to enter the dojo directly, and insisted on going to take the exam yourself? You could have walked straight ahead, but you chose to take a detour. Are you crazy? "

  An Zheng looked at him curiously: "Why are you staring at me right when you came to the Fanggu? You heard, you heard, who did you hear? "I didn't see many people when I entered the military. You even know what to say. What are you trying to do?"

  Chen Shaobai: "I've already said that I was thinking about you, you don't believe me?"

  An Zheng: "Can you still let people eat properly?"

  Chen Shaobai laughed loudly: "I am not the Fanggu just now. I have already been here for two years, it's just that you do not know about it. The day you entered the army, I happened to be in the same unit as you. When you were talking to General Tie Liuhuo, I was drinking tea in a house not too far away. Fang Daozhi and I have a good relationship, so I know everything you two have told me. Furthermore, when you entered the magistrate court today, I happened to be there as well, so I know what you have to say. "

  "You lucky egg."

  An Zheng scolded: "If I believed you, I would be a fool. How can there be so many that are perfect?"

  Chen Shaobai laughed: "Didn't he say that there is no such thing as writing down books? Since you do not believe it, then forget it. However, you and I might meet at Grand Autumn Ceremony. I just wanted to tell you that if you meet me at that time, you might be in for a hard time. I won't give you face, I'll beat you as hard as I can. You said how could there be so many coincidences, you see another coincidental. If you want to join the Grand Autumn Ceremony, I will also join the Grand Autumn Ceremony. Our fate is truly wonderful. "

  An Zheng: "Speak the human language."

  Chen Shaobai asked: Are you not going to eat?

  He did not wait for An Zheng's reply and took the skewer in front of An Zheng and started chewing on it, "I want to remind you, the Martial Arts Academy's assessment is nothing. However, the Grand Autumn Ceremony was different. Those academies in the sects all wanted to get the upper hand. And this year, there are a lot of geniuses, as if they don't need any money at all. "

  An Zheng frowned: "So he is the Military Minister."

  Chen Shaobai: "You don't believe me when I say you're stupid, do you? Forget it, I won't bother about matters of IQ with you. I came to tell you that there are only three spots in the Martial Arts Academy, so it won't be that easy for you to enter Grand Autumn Ceremony. I always feel that I am very confident in my work, but have you ever heard of the Martial Arts Academy? Do you know who your competitor is in the Martial Arts Academy? "That's right, the people of the Martial Arts Academy are very united, but they will neve
r go easy on us. Even if it's their own team's selection, they will fight with their swords drawn and spears drawn."

  He mumbled as he ate, "This is exactly what I like about the Swallows the most. No matter how close they are, as long as it's a competition, there won't be any tricks involved. Especially the Yan Man's martial uncle, who has the most straightforward and adorable personality. "

  But what An Zheng was thinking was, where did this Chen Shaobai come from, and what exactly did he want to do?

  "You came to treat me to a barbecue. It can't be that you want to tell me who I have to be careful of, right?"

  Chen Shaobai put down the skewer in his hand: "Of course not, you're the one who invited me."

  After he finished speaking, he continued to eat.

  An Zheng asked: "Fine, tell me who I should pay attention to."

  Chen Shaobai didn't even raise his head as he stretched out two fingers. "Give me two more of your big waists."

  An Zheng gritted his teeth: "Give him ten!"

  Chen Shaobai stuck out his chest: "I want to eat ten!"

  A young woman who was leading the child away looked at An Zheng and the other two with a regretful gaze as she muttered to herself: "These two young men are pretty good, with clear eyes and a nice figure. How could they be stupid?"

  Chen Shaobai laughed, "Since I can't finish all ten of them, two will do. However, what cultivation realm are you at right now? "

  An Zheng shook his head.

  Chen Shaobai said: "Forget it, at your age, your talent is probably too strong. I won't say who's stronger in the Martial Arts Academy, but you will know once you enter the Martial Arts Academy. If you can stand out amongst so many geniuses in the Martial Arts Academy, you only need to remember three people … One is Su Feilun of the Great Cauldron Academy, the other is Feng Xiuyang of the Tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tao. "

  An Zheng: "Who else?"

  Chen Shaobai: "Of course it's me."
