They have visited prostitutes together, carried guns together, and even stabbed each other. Their relationship is like Monkey King being thrown into the Bagua furnace and refined over and over again.
When they met again a year later, they did not continue to sit on the curb, but chose to sit down at a roadside barbecue stall.
The name of the barbecue stall is "Big Mouth BBQ". The stall owner is from Northeast China and has a fat figure. The biggest feature of his barbecue is that it has no features at all.
Four bottles of beer were served first. The beer was Tongcheng's local "Da Fuhao Beer". This beer was considered a trump card in Tongcheng ten years ago. At one time, it was also one of the few products in Tongcheng that could be exported except for the home textile industry.
But in recent years, with the invasion of products from foreign manufacturers such as "Snow", most of the base camp of "Bergamot" beer has been conquered.
However, Tongcheng's home textile industry is getting better and better. More than 80% of the home textile products purchased on Taobao are shipped from Tongcheng.
This is like the fortune of two people at the wine table.
One soared straight up,
One continues to waste time,
It may be fate;
But those who rise rapidly are not so happy, and those who waste their time are not so decadent.
In this general trend, nothing can be taken seriously. Only after the tide recedes can we see clearly who is really swimming naked.
"The Nine Eunuchs all lived in the main city of the underworld, and did not split up and establish their own regimes. The purge of the underworld lasted for half a year, and then it took another half a year to complete the system.
I personally arrested three judges who were plotting rebellion and sent them to the Imperial Prison. I think they are already dead.”
Lawyer An ate a bunch of leeks, took a sip of beer, and said with a smile:
"There are still people who would rebel? What's going on in their heads?"
The Yamas handed over their power and positions without any resistance. If they were able to see things clearly, how could the people below not see things clearly
"I said they rebelled because they wanted to rebel."
Feng Si picked up the bottle and filled Lawyer An's glass.
Hearing this, Lawyer An reached out and tapped his forehead gently, shook his head, and said:
“That’s the truth.”
It's just a routine operation. To be honest, these things were taught to Feng Si by Lawyer An.
However, in the past few years, Lawyer An has been working in the bookstore. In this environment, many of his skills have not been used and have degenerated.
There is really no place to use it. The boss is so lazy that everyone else is lazy too. Therefore, there is no room for office politics or court politics to be used in the bookstore.
As for Feng Si's purpose in coming here this time, Lawyer An also had an idea of it.
If Feng Si was just watching before, half for Lawyer An's sake and half because he felt strange about certain parts of the bookstore, then after the incident a year ago, Feng Si would definitely see clearly which side he should stand on.
It's funny to say that Feng Si, who was just an inspector at the beginning, still wanted to put on airs;
Now that he is a yellow belt judge, he is willing to give up everything and surrender.
But all these things are self-evident. There is no need to say them out loud. They are all in the wine.
"Another red belt and I will be responsible for the cleaning and screening of this area. During this large-scale cleansing operation, it is estimated that many ghost officials and police chiefs in the mortal world will be cleared out."
Everyone knows how corrupt and depraved the ghost officials and constables in the mortal world are.
Some are Buddhist, some are "cultivating immortals", some are just sitting there doing nothing, some are just trying to get by, and even worse, some directly join some forces in hell and act as the eyes and ears and minions of these forces in the world of the living.
From hell to the world of the living, the underworld, which has been lax for a long time, will undergo a thorough cleansing. Although the self-cleansing will certainly consume a lot of vitality, the changes brought about by the concentration of power are absolutely obvious.
It is unlikely that a situation like Ying Gou chasing King Chujiang all over hell and finally beheading him on the wall of the main city of the underworld will happen again.
Although in many cases, the confrontation between a judge and the King of Hell is like that between ants and an elephant, but if there are enough ants, they can kill an elephant.
After finishing four bottles of beer, the two of them tacitly agreed not to order more.
Feng Si stood up and patted his clothes. There was actually nothing wrong with ruining the old man's image.
Every time he returned to the world of the living, he would just find a random body, regardless of gender. After all, people were dying every moment in the world of the living, so finding a suitable body was really not difficult.
"It's been almost a year since hell stopped working. Has it been restored?"
Lawyer An asked.
Over the past year, countless souls that were supposed to be reincarnated were reduced to ashes.
“Soon.”
Lawyer An nodded.
In fact, reincarnation is only cruel to the living people who have just died, but it does not affect the overall situation.
If it really doesn't work, just get some animals from the animal realm to fill in the gaps.
In the past, the souls of extremely evil people would be thrown into the animal realm, but now it is the opposite, and they should go to the animal realm to replenish their energy in the human realm.
If this situation continues, there will definitely be more and more beasts in the world.
Feng Si felt his pocket and took out a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes. It seemed that this sloppy old man was also a smoker when he was alive.
Lawyer An paid the bill, took the cigarette from Feng Si, and the two of them started walking back with cigarettes in their mouths.
The smoke is a bit irritating to the throat, but strong enough.
"Old Zhang has also been promoted to judge, with a red belt."
Red Belt, the lowest level among judges.
In fact, Lao Zhang’s qualifications are definitely sufficient.
It’s a pity that he is ugly.
According to Feng Si, when the new judges were getting their sashes and their ranks determined, the Grand Chamberlain was sitting at the head seat. Below him were thousands of new judges, who lined up and walked past the Grand Chamberlain one by one.
The Grand Chamberlain would then choose a ribbon of appropriate color based on his or her preference and the other person's qualifications and give it to the person.
The most important national treasure has been carelessly played with like this, but it is hard to say that after the cleansing, the underworld is now worse than when the Yamas were here.
Because the previous one was so bad, it’s already the bottom line.
However, it is unique to turn an official rank conference into a beauty pageant.
"The boss is probably back too. Do you want to go with me to see him?"
Feng Si hesitated when he heard this.
"Go and meet him. You know I hope you're well."
Although Feng Si had stabbed him in the back, Lawyer An himself had been blinded by "love" at that time.
Besides, if Cuihua hadn’t helped him in the end, he would have died in hell long ago.
When Qing was chasing An Buqi, wasn't it Feng Si who held on
The relationship between the two had long been twisted to the point of being unbearable to watch.
"Is it too early?"
"Okay, later..."
"I'm just being polite, don't take it seriously."
Lawyer An laughed, and Feng Si also laughed.
The two walked back to the bookstore together.
At this time, standing outside, you can see Zhou Ze sitting behind the bar, peeling peanuts and daydreaming.
The peanuts were the ones that Lawyer An had left on the bar counter and hadn’t finished eating.
"boss."
Lawyer An walked in and shouted.
Feng Si followed in.
He also shouted:
"boss."
This is considered as recognizing one's family and establishing a relationship.
Zhou Ze looked at Feng Si with some surprise. This time Feng Si did not deliberately hide his aura, so Zhou Ze directly understood his identity.
At this moment, Boss Zhou had not yet recovered from the AIDS atmosphere. When Feng Si came, he just nodded.
As for convincing his subordinates by promising them high positions and generous salaries, just leave it to Lawyer An. When it comes to mundane affairs, Boss Zhou has always been lazy whenever possible.
Coincidentally, Xu Qinglang had just finished taking a shower and went downstairs to pour himself a glass of water. He was a little surprised to see a guest coming.
Lawyer An rubbed his hands and said, "Old Xu, thank you for your hard work, can you make some more midnight snacks?"
"Didn't you just eat?"
Xu Qinglang smelled the scent of wine and leeks.
"There is another pledge of allegiance to come."
Lawyer An said this and looked at Feng Si.
Feng Si nodded and said:
"There was a red belt who came with me. He specifically asked to go to Tongcheng for a walk, but he had to go help someone take a bath, so I left before him."
"Red ribbon?" Boss Zhou is no longer sensitive to these rainbow colors.
"Well, the identity is a bit special."
"You just said that he helps people take baths? In hell, those who run bathhouses can all have a regular salary?" Xu Qinglang asked curiously.
"Old Xu, the wind direction in hell has changed now. You don't know that it would be most cost-effective for you to die now, really."
“… …”Xu Qinglang.
This joke is really cold.
But Lawyer An really thought about it.
When the gates of hell open again,
After Lao Xu died,
Then Feng Si used his connections to make him a ghost messenger first, without rushing to be sent to the human world, and then find an opportunity to show his face in front of a regular attendant.
Next,
Just follow the model of Wu Meiniang.
Lawyer An even had a picture like this in his mind:
Xu Qinglang was wearing a long robe, still looking elegant, with the Nine Eunuchs standing behind him.
He waved his sleeves.
"Little Changzi, carry me up Mount Tai." (1)
The nine eunuchs below bowed in unison in response.
The more Lawyer An thought about it, the more he felt that there was a way forward.
One leg is not stable enough to walk.
Walking on two legs is smooth.
With three legs, isn’t a triangle the most stable
A last generation, plus a Ying Gou, plus a beauty trap.
Tsk tsk,
Pingdeng Wang An suddenly became full of confidence in the future.
Lawyer An has always been ambitious, and he has never denied his ambition. At the same time, he also knows that Feng Si is also ambitious, otherwise, with such a bright future, there would be no need for him to make the gamble of joining the National Army in 1949.
However, of these three legs, one is a salted fish, one is the person who abandoned his foundation and ran away, and one has more than twenty houses in the world and is reluctant to die.
well…
I ignored Lawyer An in my opinion.
Xu Qinglang looked at Feng Si,
Continue to ask:
"Who is it?"
“In fact, I’m not very familiar with him, but even though he’s only a red belt, no one in the underworld dares to neglect him. Even those purple belt veterans don’t dare to act big in front of him.
He specializes in giving people baths and serving them, but the person he serves is Di Ting. "
… … … …
