My heart skipped a beat, what was supposed to come had finally come. No matter what, Xu Yingzhi was still the brother of the General Administration boss, and now he died at my hands. No matter what, I always need to give an explanation.
Seeing my back stiffen and not moving, Mr. Xu knew that I had frightened him, so he said calmly: "I came here just to hear how he died."
Mr. Xu stared at me, his eyes behind the thick glasses were like dead fish, cloudy and white, which made people feel a chill in their hearts out of thin air.
As one of the biggest gangsters behind the scenes of the Religious Affairs Bureau, there are basically not many secrets in this world for people like them. I don’t dare to tell lies in front of him. I took a deep breath and said
Everything that happened after meeting Mr. Xu, except for those things that were kept secret, was all told to him in one go.
At first, I was a little incoherent because of my nervousness, but then I felt that the chill around me had dissipated a lot, so I stopped worrying and narrated the whole story one by one.
To be honest, I actually suffered a lot of grievances in Myanmar, especially after I met Mr. Xu. He didn’t take any more care of me because of the twists and turns between us, except forcing me to write Luo Luo.
Except for the "Twelve Techniques of Suppressing the Mountains" left behind by the eighteenth generation, there was almost no attention paid to me. I was like a poor relative from the countryside who squeezed all the money he had for travel and then imprisoned me.
And Mr. Xu is really just like what Luo Shiba talked about in the notes of the Twelve Dharma Gates. Although he is talented, his nature is too cold and unscrupulous. Sometimes he is simply cruel. For example,
In order for Mo Luo to inspire his demonic nature, he even gave his biological parents to be killed. Even his own subordinates and disciples plotted against him. They were eager for quick success and instant gain, and they did not care about the lives of thousands of soldiers and ordinary farmers in Wang Lun Khan's lair.
In the eyes, everything is a chess piece. If it is useful, keep it. If it is useless, discard it.
I was forced step by step by Mr. Xu, and finally had no choice but to launch a counterattack, which made Mr. Xu finally have to detonate himself, triggering the terrifying aging storm and plunging the entire Yelangnan Sacrifice Hall into a bloody storm.
I pressed forward step by step, and speaking of it, I didn't make much of a mistake.
The child has no mother, it’s a long story, and it didn’t stop until we crawled out of the Sakulang base.
When I stopped with my mouth dry and raised my head, I saw that the old man sitting behind the desk had his eyes closed, as if he had fallen asleep. However, when I looked carefully, I discovered that there seemed to be a vague light in the corners of his eyes.
There were tears.
After a long while, he opened his eyes, rubbed his nose, and said, Lu Zuo, do you know that Xu Yingzhi is a powerful influencer in Southeast Asia, but why has he never set foot in China?
I opened my mouth, guessed for a long time, then shook my head, Mr. Xu said slowly: "He did it because of me!"
"You?" I was a little surprised and said that you are two brothers. Why did he never return to China for the rest of his life, but for you?
Mr. Xu lay back and sighed softly: "Yingzhi has been very talented in his life. Even when Luo Shiba mentioned him, he said he was a genius. However, because of some experiences he had when he was young, his heart was distorted. This
He has killed tens of thousands of people in his life, countless people, how many people have lost their families because of him, how many people have been separated from their wives because of him - he is a demon released from the abyss. People like him, the higher their achievements are.
The harm to society will be greater."
The old man had a deep understanding of his biological brother: "Although he is my biological brother, but it involves national law, I can't tolerate him. When Banggui passed away, we met once and talked once in Miao territory.
Later, we reached an agreement that he would never invade China, and I asked him to take the child and leave. However, I never expected... Alas!"
What child did I ask? Mr. Xu did not talk about the past, but stared at me and said, Lu Zuo, I heard that you have a famous natal golden silkworm Gu in your body. Can you take it out and have a look with me? I am miserable.
With a straight face, I said I'm afraid that's not possible. This guy is sleeping now and I can't help him.
"Can't you control it?" Mr. Xu stared into my eyes and said, Lu Zuo, can you still control it now?
I felt that at that moment, Mr. Xu's eyes were as bright as little suns. His eyes made me feel like I was falling into an ice cave, and I subconsciously shouted: "Okay!"
Mr. Xu nodded and said yes, I will remember your words, Lu Zuo, our Gu masters have always had only three endings - alone and poor! In my life, I have no heirs or inheritance, so the Dunzhai Miao Gu lineage,
After all, it is up to you to carry forward the situation. If you have anything in the bureau in the future, you can contact me through Xiao Chen. But one thing, if you become a person like Xu Yingzhi, please remember that I will definitely
Those who come to clean up the house with their own hands cannot be merciful.
Even though he was able to disregard his brother's life and death, I did not doubt Xu Yingyu's fanatical loyalty to the country and his decision to follow his words. I nodded solemnly and said that I would definitely be strict with myself.
Mr. Xu sighed and said, that's it. We've met the people and talked about it. I basically understand the specific circumstances of how he died. Lu Zuo, remember, you are the junior I look forward to the most, and you are the one I look forward to the most.
The junior I am most worried about, sometimes, your decision can directly affect the life and death of many people, so you must be cautious when doing things, don't be reckless, and think twice before you act.
He waved his hand and said, I'm tired, you can go back, and remember to close the door when you leave.
Mr. Xu's tone was a little strange, as if he was appreciative, but also conveyed a strange energy. I couldn't figure it out, so I could only follow his words, stand up, say hello, and then leave.
I walked out of the room, and the moment I turned back to close the door, I saw this old man completely sinking into the large chair. He looked extremely depressed and exhausted, as lonely as a child.
Sure enough, even if he didn't say it, as brothers, he was still sad about the passing of Xu Yingzhi. Seeing his old friends passing away one after another, he held admirable power in his hands.
But in my heart, after all, I am just a lonely poor person.
I suddenly thought, after many years, will I look like this?
With a heavy heart, I took the things I had left temporarily from the hands of the two security guards at the door, and then returned to my residence in a hurry. There was no one in the villa, and I didn't call to look for it. I took off my clothes and went alone.
Soaking in the swimming pool in the yard, letting the water sink and float, I feel that there is always something in my body that controls my unpredictable destiny.
I soaked in the swimming pool alone until two o'clock in the afternoon. My whole mental state was in a state of chaos and nothingness. It was hard to describe and wonderful. Later, Qin Zhen woke me up and asked me if I had eaten. I was at a loss.
Shaking his head, he told me that the summary meeting in the afternoon was about to start. He was sent by the shopkeeper to call me and asked me if I was hungry. Do I want to fill my stomach first?
I shook my head, jumped up from the swimming pool, wiped the water stains on my body with the towel next to me, and then headed to the conference center with him.
The Religious Affairs Bureau rented an entire conference center building in the hotel this time. When Qin Zhen and I arrived at the scene, the large conference hall was packed with about 300 people. Most of these people came from four provinces and one province.
From various departments, look at this posture, almost all the important leading cadres with names and surnames are sitting on the rostrum, while those with slightly more senior positions are sitting in the front rows below the stage. As for the rest, they are all looking for acquaintances.
Gather a group.
Because the meeting had not started yet, the place was still a little messy. I took a look around and saw Teng Xiao and Zhu Chenchen waving to me in the corner, so I and Qin Zhen hunched over and walked over. As soon as I sat down, Teng Xiao asked me
, why didn’t Master Xiao come over?
I adjusted the position of the seat and said that he was not a member of the bureau. He came here just for fun. I don't know whether he was playing in the ends of the earth or in the big and small caves. I didn't know if he was playing in the caves or the big and small caves. Don't worry about him.
Teng Xiao kept in mind that Zamao Xiaodao helped him. He called me last night and said that Luo Jinlong had come to apologize. I nodded to show that I knew and didn't say much. Now he asked again, pointing to the smiling white man on the stage.
The old man said: "Lu Zuo, what is Daoist Xiao's background? Can he actually make Luo Xiankun lower his head, bring his son over, and apologize sincerely?"
Many times, information is relatively closed. For example, although Teng Xiao, Qin Zhen and others know Zamao Xiaodao, they only know that this Taoist is a good friend of mine, but do not know his origins, such as the shopkeeper, Mr.
Zhao, Dong Zhongming and others would not take the initiative to mention it, so Teng Xiao asked this question.
I smiled and said, this guy is just a liar who travels around the world, don't be fooled by him.
Seeing that I didn't say anything, Teng Xiao knew that there was something important about it, so he stopped mentioning it. We chatted a few more words in private, and Lao Zhao came over and said that senior brother wanted to see me if he had something to do, and asked me to go to the office on the second floor.
I said goodbye to Qin Zhen, Teng Xiao and others, and followed Lao Zhao to the office on the second floor. I saw the senior brother talking and busy with Dong Zhongming, Yu Jiayuan and others. When he saw me coming, he pulled me aside and asked me
, said Lu Zuo, I just received a call from Mr. Xu, asking me to hide all your achievements in the year-end summary, and erase all your honors, saying that you are as good as the trees, and the wind will destroy them.
You keep a low profile. But...
He paused for a moment, and then said: "Mr. Xu told me that he will privately report to the General Administration for you and raise your administrative level to the level of deputy inspector. Do you have any objection?"
Deputy inspector level? When I heard this, I couldn't help but feel a thump in my heart, and I was immediately confused - this carrot was too big, wasn't it?
What is the concept of deputy inspector? It should be noted that this secret front has its own hierarchy. It would be too laborious to explain in detail. To put it simply, the chief instructor of the training camp, Monk Huiming, and the former deputy director of the Southwest Bureau, Jia Tuanjie, also
It's just the political treatment of a deputy inspector. My senior brother has been with the imperial court for decades, and now he is just an inspector, only half a rank higher than me.
