Zhang Yan’s memory of Zhuzui Lane is not clear. He must have heard of that place before but never been there. After all, when his predecessor was proud, the Zhang family did not need to live in a place like Zhuzui Lane, but
Zhuzui Alley, where the Zhang family went after their predecessor was convicted and sent to the army.
Although they now have fertile land gained through military exploits, the Zhang family, which had just had two years of prosperity, still did not move out of Zhuzui Alley, saying that they were waiting for Zhang Yan to come back before thinking about it.
Walking to the alley, Zhang Yan could clearly feel that the living environment here was very bad. Not to mention the sewage flowing across the street, at least there was always a lingering smell of feces and urine in the air, which made people frown. There were several other places at the alley.
The careless Qingpi squatted on the roadside, holding a stick in his mouth and looking around aimlessly.
It is estimated that you can see so many green skins wandering around in the west side of the city. Because green skins, there are not so many honest and down-to-earth people in the west side of the city for them to bully. Moreover, the closer the corner is, the more natural it is for filth to hide.
.
"Hey! Who are you?"
Zhang Yan was about to enter the alley when he was stopped by a few green men. They probably saw the bulging baggage on his back and his unfamiliar face, so they came up to test the water. If he was a softie, wouldn't it be an advantage?
Zhang Yan smiled, he had not seen this kind of bastard in his previous life on earth. He did not answer, tightened the baggage on his back, and pinched the green-skinned neck of the questioner with one hand, like an iron hoop, making it difficult for the other party to break free.
Then he raised his right hand and slapped him across the face twice. He used a lot of force and slapped the opponent's three back molars twice. He threw it to the ground and the person fainted, but he was still vomiting blood bubbles in his mouth.
A face swelled rapidly.
"How dare you talk to me like this even if you don't know anyone? The demon soldiers on Yubei Mountain don't even have such a voice. If you don't have eyes next time, I will dig them all out for you! Get away!"
You can't be reasonable when dealing with green-skinned gangsters, because if you don't understand clearly, they will think you are cowardly. They only understand fists and kicks.
Of course, Zhang Yan never thought about defeating this opponent in one go. Even if these green men are suppressed now, tomorrow, they will definitely recruit their accomplices to regain the situation by shouting and shouting. If he can beat them up again,
Only then can you say you defeated them.
A few green men weighed Zhang Yan's stance, lifted up their unconscious companion on the ground, and ran away. However, the anger in their eyes was not small when they left.
"Young man, are you causing trouble for yourself? These people are like mangy dogs, they will annoy you to death even if they don't bite you."
How could such a loud noise at the entrance of the alley not attract attention? A rickety old man saw that Zhang Yan had a kind face, so he spoke to persuade him.
"Hey, mangy dogs are indeed annoying, but just use some force and kill them. Just kill one when it comes, and there will be no trouble." Zhang Yan replied with a smile, and then walked into the alley.
No need to ask anyone, my sister Zhang Huiyuan has already given the address of her home very clearly in the letter. Come in from the west alley entrance, walk straight down the road, turn left when you see the first well, and after turning left, just count the fifth door.
.
"Dong dong dong."
"Who is it? Wait a minute!"
Zhang Yan took a deep breath, then knocked on the door. After a few breaths, he heard a reply from inside the door. The voice was a little hoarse and obviously lacking in energy. It also sounded wary. He could tell it was an older woman.
At this moment, Zhang Yan suddenly had mixed feelings, and an emotion he had never experienced before quickly occupied his entire heart.
"Crunch!"
The dilapidated wooden door opened a small crack from the inside, and half of an old woman's face was exposed from behind.
"Mom, the child is back."
"...You Yan'er?! You're back!" The old woman's eyes widened and she opened the wooden door with a look of ecstasy. Her little son, who she had been waiting for day and night, finally finally
came back.
"Mom! The child is unfilial and makes you worry!" As he said this, Zhang Yan knelt down on his knees, his head banging on the ground.
Zhang Yan had no idea how he would feel when facing a "strange" mother before, and had struggled with it. But the moment he saw the old woman, all his hesitations, speculations and even worries disappeared.
In the end, all that gathered in his heart was the instinctive family affection and guilt.
This may be the influence of the inherited body, or it may be Zhang Yan's regret of being an orphan in his previous life. Now he regrets that he was leisurely and leisurely driving on the road before, but it made his mother worry about him every day.
It's really inappropriate.
Seeing her son kowtow to herself, Wang Lanping burst into tears. She quickly took two steps and hugged her son's head to prevent him from continuing to kowtow. She kept saying, "Just come back, come back."
Just fine..."
For Wang Lanping, her son really "resurrected" this time. After many twists and turns, he came back from a desperate situation. Is this not the blessing of his ancestors?
"Yan'er, get up quickly. The ground is cold. Let's go inside and talk. Your elder brother will be extremely happy if he knows you are back."
"Okay, mother." Looking up, Zhang Yan found that his face was already full of tears. He didn't know it. At this time, the old woman in front of him was no longer "strange" at all. How could there be such a blood connection?
Is it fake?
Before entering the door, Zhang Yan looked back at the people around him who came out to watch the excitement, nodded to these people, and then followed his mother into the house.
"Is that Wang Lanping's youngest son?"
"Didn't you say that arson and murder turned into beheading? What's going on?"
"I heard that he was sent to the army, right? Could it be that he escaped and ran back?"
"Tsk, escaping? It's possible in a small place. We in Langyuan have never heard of escaped death row prisoners sneaking in. Most likely they were expelled from the army and cleared, right?"
"It's possible! No wonder this kid is so cruel. When he entered the alley, he stopped Liu Ganzi and asked him a question. Without saying a word, he slapped out all three of Liu Ganzi's back molars. He was so angry that he looked like he came back from the frontier.
.”
...
There has never been any secrets in Zhuzui Alley. The news that the Zhang family had returned from beheading reached everyone's ears faster than wings. Even Qingpi, who came to the alley to inquire about the news, quickly learned the news and trotted away.
I went back to invite people. It turned out that he was just a soldier. Do you think he was a big deal if he knew how to box and kick? He didn't take them seriously! He must give him a try this time!
Also receiving the news were some people who had been paying attention to Zhang Yan's news.
For example, a thin young man was drinking with a singing girl in his arms in a flower house. When he heard the words of the entourage below, the smile on his face turned cold.
"He's really back? Humph, it's not easy to start somewhere else. Now that he's back to Langyuan, let's kill him again. Go find Xiao Chongwen and the others, and say I'll have a drink with them.
