Chapter 171, Expedition

() After the party was over, after the students had left, Tang Long stayed, Canglong asked him why, but Tang Long squeaked and didn't speak, so Canglong asked him to get in the car, and he didn't know how long it took to wander around, and the two came to Gui Street

In fact, Gui Street used to be called the ghost market, according to legend, during the Qing Dynasty, each gate of Běi Jīng had its special purpose, and it was not allowed to be used at will, for example, the imperial court sent troops to take the Desheng Gate, execute the prisoners to go to the Xuanwu Gate, etc., and the Dongzhi Gate was specially used to transport timber to the city of Běi Jīng and to transport the dead outside the city

The old people who live in Dongzhimen can still remember the scene of calling friends together and playing games on the city gate tower when they were children, and they saw a straight road in the city along the city tower, the drum tower on the opposite side, and the endless cemetery outside the city on the opposite side

Dongzhimen used to belong to the urban-rural junction, the city gate naturally formed the original morning market, in the Dongzhimen to sell sundries, vegetables and fruits vendors began to squat in the middle of the night to sell, the dawn period is scattered, these vendors use kerosene lamps to get light, the distance looks hazy, and the surrounding coffin shop and bar room can be seen everywhere, it is very creepy feeling, so this place is called "ghost market"

Strangely, after the beginning of the reform and opening up, many merchants and shops on both sides of Dongzhimen Street began to carry out all kinds of business, but almost all of them lost the coffin of the shopkeeper, and even the only state-owned department store had to close down

Later, it was discovered that only the business of opening restaurants on this street could succeed, and the restaurants here were hardly visited during the day, but at night they were crowded with traffic, and there was another scene of prosperity, as the local elders said, when the ghosts all went into the city to eat at night, and no one could explain it

Tang Long didn't expect Canglong to come here for supper, the two walked into an old shop with classical decoration, Canglong unceremoniously called all the special foods on Gui Street, spicy crayfish, spicy meat and crab, boiled and roasted, belly sheep, scorpions and so on

After everyone came up, Tang Long looked at the dishes on the table, and he was really a little greedy, but what he didn't expect was that Canglong actually ate very fragrant

"What are you going to eat," Canglong peeled the lobster and looked at him with a strange expression

"I'm just wondering, Mr. Cang, haven't you always eaten very regularly before," Tang Long asked, looking at the things on this table, he remembered that Canglong never seemed to eat these before

"This is for you, I'm just trying it by the way," Canglong said with a greasy mouth

Tang Long was strange, but he also followed the start of eating, Canglong had been eating, his head was sweating, he stopped, didn't say anything, looked uncomfortable, Tang Long said strangely: "What's wrong with you?"

"Spicy" Canglong took a deep breath and spit out a word

Tang Long smiled, he didn't expect Teacher Cang to have such a cute side, and then shouted: "The waiter is here to root the cucumber."

The waiter was puzzled, but he still took the cucumber, Tang Long handed it to him and said, "Let's try it."

"Can relieve spicy" Canglong wiped his sweat and looked uncomfortable

"It's very effective," Tang Long said with a smile

Canglong picked up the cucumber and took a few bites, and found that the spicy taste in his mouth really disappeared, and then gave a thumbs up: "Not bad"

Eating and eating, the spicy taste disappeared, Canglong couldn't help but pick up the crayfish and peel it, but this time he didn't eat it vigorously, but ate a crayfish, took a bite of cucumber, and said while eating: "Tell me, what's the matter with you"

Tang Long put away his smile, swallowed the things in his mouth, wiped his hands, lowered his head and said, "I don't want to study anymore."

Canglong was not surprised, but said: "Give a reason"

It seems that he is accustomed to Canglong, who is not surprised by everything, and explained: "Am I not in a sports school, every day is training, training is particularly boring, and there are fewer girls in the sports school, I think about it"

"Then what do you want to do," Canglong said as he ate

"Why don't you teach me how to be a killer," Tang Long said suddenly

Canglong's face immediately turned cold, he put down the things in his hand, wiped his hands, took a bite of the cucumber, reduced the spicy taste in his mouth, and then looked at Tang Long seriously and said, "How do you know that I am a killer"

"Guess this, you see that the killers in the movie are all the same as you, and you have a lot of eccentricities, so I think there is only one profession that matches your skills and style, and that is the killer," Tang Long smiled

But he soon found that Canglong didn't have any smile on his face at all, instead it was cold and terrifying, which made him shudder, but he stubbornly held on to look at Canglong, but he soon found that these eyes were not the pair of cold but warm eyes that he was familiar with before

"The killer has a rule, not to let others know his identity, if his identity is exposed, he will choose two ways to solve it," Canglong said expressionlessly

"Which two" Seeing that Teacher Cang was so serious, Tang Long swallowed his saliva and stammered

"Kill him or cooperate," Canglong stared at him coldly, "You don't seem to be qualified to cooperate, so there is only the first one"

At that time, Tang Long had a feeling of urinary incontinence, he had never seen Canglong speak so scary, especially those eyes, which made him seem to see a bloody scene like hell

He began to tremble all over, regretting that he actually mentioned this matter, but Canglong suddenly laughed, at that time he thought that Canglong was ready to kill him, but he soon found that Canglong just picked up the cucumber and took a bite, and as he did just now, he gluttonized the food on the table, and the person just now was completely different

"Do you still want to be a killer now," Canglong asked calmly, his tone not cold

If it weren't for this, Tang Long was a little suspicious that he was dreaming just now, but he quickly thought about it, and soon made a decision, looked at Canglong and nodded seriously, and said, "I want to be a killer."

Unexpectedly, Canglong was not surprised, but gave him an expression that was not afraid of death, and said: "After eating this meal, go back to sleep, come to Nanchizi Street at twelve o'clock tomorrow, I hope you don't regret your decision today."

After saying that, Canglong wiped his mouth and left straight after paying the bill, and when Canglong disappeared at the door, Tang Long reacted with a surprised face: "He promised him, he actually agreed" Then Tang Long jumped up in the store, and the waiter thought that this unlucky child was crazy, and almost didn't call the Jīng Divine Hospital

Soon he realized his behavior, quickly apologized, and left in a gloomy manner, and when he walked out of the door, Tang Long really wanted to shout: "Lao Tzu will soon become a killer, a terrifying killer who walks in the dark night."

The next day, Canglong was ready to go to Iraq, except for the snow leopard and black impermanence, the team members had already dispersed to Iraq, and the snow leopard and black impermanence would accompany Canglong and the staff of Longteng International to Iraq as the bodyguard

When leaving, Canglong went to the hospital to see his mother, and learned from Hattori Heiji that his mother had passed the dangerous period, and now she only needs rehabilitation treatment, and she will wake up in a short time, but Canglong can't wait for the moment when she wakes up, just say goodbye in her ear, and then leave the hospital

Returning to Nanchizi Street again, Canglong said goodbye to Wanwan, Wanwan was very reluctant, since she knew that Canglong was her own brother, Wanwan not only did not alienate Canglong, but became closer to him, but Wanwan didn't say that she was going to marry her brother when she grew up

"Brother, you have to come back early," Wanwan had tears in her eyes, but she was strong and didn't flow out, she hugged Canglong tightly, and she was very reluctant to let go

"Don't worry, my brother will come back soon, Wanwan will study hard, and when my brother comes back, he will take the test for you," Canglong rubbed Wanwan's hair and kissed her

Wanwan nodded, and then ran back to the house, but Canglong found that she was actually hiding in the crack in the door and secretly watching

Uncle Jia nodded at Canglong and said, "Be careful, if there is any problem that can't be solved, don't force it."

"Thank you, Uncle Jia," Canglong nodded, and at this time, in his eyes, Uncle Jia was not a jǐng guard of their family, but a relative-like existence

Just as he was about to get into the car, Tang Long was late, he looked excited, and when he saw Canglong, they all saluted, a little strange: "Teacher Cang, where are you going, don't forget what you promised me yesterday."

Canglong smiled but didn't answer, just said to Hei Wuchang: "Old Hei, he handed it over to you"

Tang Long saw the big guy Hei Wuchang walking towards him, and he couldn't help but take two steps back, Hei Wuchang's two eyes looked at Tang Long with a thief, and then patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Head, what you said is this kid, it's too much of a hindrance to take him there, look at this body, it's like it's about to fall apart, how can you stand the toss."

slapped twice in a row, making Tang Long feel like a mountain pressing down, but when he heard Hei Wuchang's words, the stubbornness in his heart came up: "I will definitely not drag you back"

Hei Wuchang didn't expect Tang Long to be so stubborn, but he became interested, and lifted Tang Long up with one hand, Tang Long was mentioned like this for the first time, after all, his body was already strong in the eyes of ordinary people, but Hei Wuchang was not a human at all

"Why are you letting go of me, Teacher Cang, look at him," Tang Long shouted, but before he could finish shouting, he was thrown into the car by Black Impermanence, and he only felt that his body was about to fall apart, and he reacted before scolding: "Fuck you, you nigger, you want to die, you won't be light."

"It's already light to do what we do," the snow leopard smiled

Tang Long thought that the snow leopard's honest smile was definitely the most kind smile he had ever seen, so much so that for a long time he had always thought that the snow leopard was an honest and kind person, but after a long time, he found out that he was wrong

When the convoy left Nanchizi Street and drove to the capital airport, everyone heard a cry of "wow" from the courtyard, Canglong saw Wanwan running out of the courtyard from the rearview mirror, crying and chasing their convoy, shouting from time to time: "Brother, brother, don't leave me alone, don't leave Wanwan alone."

Uncle Jia followed behind, Wanwan fell, she got up by herself, and chased after her, the driver asked Canglong if he wanted to stop, Canglong gritted his teeth and said, "Speed up"

Until they couldn't hear Wanwan's sad cry, until they turned around and Wanwan's figure completely disappeared in the rearview mirror, at that moment, the emotions in Canglong's heart turned over the river and the sea, and it was unspeakably uncomfortable

When he passed by, he suddenly saw the national flag fluttering, the five stars shining on the blood-red cloth, moving in the wind, and another emotion filled his heart, maybe this is the honor brought by responsibility, although this honor may be gathered with blood
