Lu Mingfei, who had read Dragon Clan before Dragon Slaying

Uesugoshi had already started kneading the dough, and the cooled water in the soup pot started to boil again. Minamoto and Sakura looked at each other helplessly, and could only let Uesugoshi stubbornly start working.

Sometimes parents are like this. They would rather be tired and suffer a little, but they always want to give more and better to their children.

"Jiaosheng, you said you came to me for something important." Uesugoshi stirred the soup pot with a whisk and asked softly, "It's worth your coming so late. It must be because of some major reforms that have taken place in the Snake Qihachi family. "

"Yes." Yuan Zhisheng nodded lightly, "The Fierce Ghosts have merged with the family. We have banned the two code names of 'Ghost' and 'Law Enforcer'. From now on, there will only be one Snake Qiba Family. All tribesmen will be treated equally, individuals with dangerous bloodline will be supervised and responsible for by their family members, and prisons in the mountains and outer suburbs will gradually be abolished."

"This is a good thing." Uesugoshi nodded and said, "Ange's proposal is good. This is the most ideal situation, but in reality there will still be difficulties in implementing it."

"Three days are too hasty." Yuan Zhisheng pressed his temples and said in a tired tone, "But fortunately the king is no longer here. The fierce ghosts now have the final say between young girls and Sakurai Kogure. The family and the fierce ghosts have the final say." Although the merger of Guizhong will inevitably involve small frictions and conflicts, the scale is not large. The general framework has been completed, and the next step is to polish the details and wait for the test of time."

"Isn't that great?" Uesugi stretched the dough into a long and thin strip, "You are now the head of the Snake Qihachi family, and you command tens of thousands of people in the Japanese underworld. It is inevitable that there will be times of hard work. To be honest, I When you were young, you were not as good as you, Zhisheng. In such a short period of time, you were able to push the problems that the family has not been able to solve for so many years to this step. What are you still worried about, Zhisheng?"

"It's about Kassel College." Yuan Zhisheng sighed softly, "Principal Ange's attitude is tougher than I thought. When I studied in the United States, I only felt that the principal was an excellent and charming educator. , but in the past two days that I have been in contact with him as a parent, I have a deep understanding of what it means to be the 'most powerful dragon slayer in the world' and the iron-fisted leader of the secret party."

"Because you are still too young, and Angers is too old. In more than a hundred years, he has aged into a fierce fox." Uesugi said, "Actually, Angers is such a person. You You don’t know him well enough yet. The longer you stay in contact with him, the more you will find that as a friend, he is reliable, trustworthy and tough enough, but as an enemy or there are some conflicts between you, you will You will find that this old man is like a stone in a latrine, smelly, hard, and stubborn."

"Ange's ferocity has been honed through long years and countless wars." Uesugi said in a low voice, "Compared with that iron-fisted old man, both you and me in our youth are only ivory at best. The ignorant superior in the tower.”

"In short, after negotiating with the principal, all the family heads looked not very good." Yuan Zhisheng smiled bitterly, "But compared to your time, today's secret party is undoubtedly much more tolerant towards us. Even Feng Mo The head of the family privately said that compared to the tyrant in his impression, Principal Angers was equally harsh but obviously became kinder."

"Although Ange is not a shrewd and calculating businessman, you will definitely have a headache if you want to do business with him, because that man's bottom line is always there, and it cannot be touched or overstepped." Uesugi shook his head slowly, "So You don’t have to put too much pressure on yourself, Zhisheng, among the current heads of She Qiba’s family, no matter who sits in your position, they may not be able to do better than you.”

"Actually, it's just mentally torture to negotiate with the principal himself, but in the long run, the cooperation with Kassel College will definitely bring more benefits to the family than disadvantages." Yuan Zhisheng said softly, "Good things come hard."

"Looking at the look on your face, you probably haven't slept much these days, right?" Uesugi glanced at the dark circles under Minamoto's eyes and told him in an experienced tone, "Actually, there aren't that many 'you have to be' in this world. Sometimes you just let it happen, sometimes you need to learn to relax and have a good rest."

After Yuan Zhisheng was silent for a moment, he nodded slowly: "Maybe you are right, but I still need time to understand."

Uesugoshi put the prepared noodles into the pot, and the noodles spread into the shape of flowers in the boiling pot. The old chef's movements were as skillful as Minamoto's, looking at his father's back, majestic and old, this man should have stood tall A man at the pinnacle of power in the Japanese underworld is doing the most ordinary physical labor... In fact, ramen is a very tiring task. Pulling two pots of noodles non-stop is a big burden for an old man who is nearly a hundred years old. Minamoto Chisheng There was a hint of fatigue in his father's body, but it wasn't just because of these two pots of noodles. Over the past sixty years, Uesugoshi had cooked more than ten million pots of noodles.

"Yaksha and Crow didn't come together?" Lu Mingfei leaned over and asked Yuan Zhisheng in a low voice. He was curious about why Yuan Zhisheng's two inseparable followers were absent today, leaving only Ying.

"I didn't inform them before I went out." Yuan Zhisheng shook his head, "The family has been in urgent need of manpower recently. Both Yasha and Wu Wu have been promoted. Director, as the deputy head of the Sakurai family, they are very busy during this period, and they will no longer be my direct subordinates in the future, and I will not summon them unless necessary."

"Hey, these two brothers have been promoted? Sounds like they have quite high positions?" Lu Mingfei showed a surprised expression, and then looked at Ying on the other side of Yuan Zhisheng, "Didn't Miss Ying get promoted? I remember Miss Ying was here He performed very bravely against Herzog before."

"I mentioned it, but Sakura refused." Yuan Zhisheng shook his head helplessly.

"In addition to protecting the young master, I don't need any other mission." Sakura said calmly.

When Sakura said this, she glanced at Yuan Zhisheng intentionally or unintentionally. Even though it was a quick glance, it was still caught by Lu Mingfei. That look was very familiar, just like when Xia Mi looked at Chu Zihang, when Sakurai Komu looked at When Kazama Ruri looks at her, including when Eri looks at herself... Probably every woman is like this. When she looks at the man she loves, her eyes will be particularly gentle, except for Nono.

Lu Mingfei was not the only one who caught Sakura's eyes, but also Uesugoshi. Uesugoshi smiled knowingly and didn't say anything. He just placed four bowls of ramen in front of everyone... even though Uesugoshi said he didn't want to see Lu. Mingfei, but when cooking noodles, Lu Mingfei also counted his share. This old man's heart was never as hard as he showed.

Of course, Eliyi's bowl still contained the most meat. "Young boy, you came to me tonight not just for the cooperation between the Snake Qihachi family and Kassel Academy, right?" Yue Uesugi sat in front of Minamoto, and asked across the dining table, "Although I haven't been with you all these years, But I understand your temperament. You are not someone who comes to complain to me in the middle of the night. You must not come to me because of official business. You are very capable and those things cannot really bother you."

The heat of the ramen slowly circulated in the stage car. After a moment of silence, Minamoto nodded in compromise. He would not worry about family matters and would bother Uesugoshi in the middle of the night. He wanted to be strong in some aspects and Uesugoshi is exactly the same, probably this is Tomoko Mo Ruofu.

"I'm wondering if I really should leave the family." Yuan Zhisheng said slowly.

When he said this, Minamoto Chisheng looked quietly into Uesugoshi's eyes, as if a confused child was asking his father which direction he should go, his young eyes and vicissitudes of life intersecting in the mist.

"What makes you unable to find your direction?" Yue Uesugi looked at Minamoto, "I heard someone mention your vision, Minamoto, to sell sunscreen on nudist beaches in France... It's not a majestic ideal, but It sounds very pleasant, the nudist beaches in France, I wonder if they are still as beautiful as they were seventy years ago."

Uesugoshi's eyes were slightly absent-minded, as if he was caught in a long and vague memory. Speaking of which, this old man actually came from France. Uesugoshi's mother is French, and he also spent his childhood in France, and Minamoto was born His wish happens to be to go to France... His body is truly full of Uesugoshi's blood. If Minamoto had been educated by Uesugoshi since childhood, he would probably become a lazy playboy today.

Yuan Zhisheng glanced at Lu Mingfei. Lu Mingfei was slurping noodles and drinking soup without looking away. But Yuan Zhisheng knew... Needless to say, Lu Mingfei must have told Uesugoshi about this matter. He didn't. I mentioned to my brother that as for Yasha Crow and Caesar Chu Zihang, they are even less likely.

"I don't know." Yuan Zhisheng was silent for a moment and then slowly shook his head. He said softly, "When I was young, Zhongnu and I grew up in the mountains. It was a very small town with beautiful scenery, but after watching it for a long time I will also get tired of it. There is only one school in the town. If you want to go to middle school, you have to go outside the town. There is also only one convenience store in the whole town... It is actually more appropriate to call it a small store. The top shelf is filled with TV commercials. The latest soda.”

Uesugoshi's eyes were rare and soft. He listened quietly to Minamoto's naive narration, and even his breathing slowed down subconsciously, because this was his child's childhood that he did not participate in. If he missed it, he could not compensate for it, but he At least want to understand.

"Actually, there were not many families with TV sets in the town at that time. When every child passed by a small store, his eyes would unconsciously glance at the top shelf, with longing and longing in his eyes, like a can of The new soda is an elusive treasure." Yuan Zhisheng shook his head, "I can't understand that look, just like I can't understand why Zhisheng thinks this town is big enough and it doesn't matter if she lives there for the rest of her life. , because it is too small in my eyes. I have lived there for so many years and I have stepped on every inch of land. When I was about to turn ten, I felt that the town I grew up in was almost too small to accommodate me. , I told the young girl that I must go to a big city, and I will become famous in the future."

"The blood flowing in your body is not ordinary." Uesugoshi said.

"No, the blood in my body is the same as that of a young girl, but everyone's pursuit is different." Gen Zhisheng raised his head slightly and looked at the ramen stall higher, "Tachibana Masamune came to see me Well, I came to the big city as I wished, and without even having to work hard, I became the head of the Yuan family, the future heir of the Yakuza family, and a well-deserved big shot, but I didn't feel very satisfied."

"When I was twelve years old, I joined the Executive Bureau. It took me three years to become the Director of the Executive Bureau. Different from my status as the head of the Yuan family, I earned this position myself." Yuan Zhisheng said, "I am fifteen. On my birthday that year, the birthday gift I gave myself was to kill the hundredth 'ghost' in my law enforcement career."

"How does it feel to become a big shot?" Uesugi asked.

"Tired." Yuan Zhisheng exhaled from his chest. He finally took off his disguise in front of his biological father, "I'm really tired."

Sakura, who had been eating noodles quietly on the side, suddenly stopped, because it was in that year that she met Yuan Zhisheng and became his subordinate. Together with Yasha and Crow, she didn't know the man who yearned for him. Yuan Zhisheng, a bigger world, when she met this man... maybe he was just a boy at that time, but he was already a big shot among the stars. Thousands of bloody gangsters followed him or were jealous of him. He He is always calm, powerful and solemn, but there seems to be a fatigue that can never be dispelled between his brows and eyes.

"Because the expectations on your shoulders are too heavy?" Yue Uesugi asked. He has been there. He sat in the position where Minamoto is now more than 60 years ago.

"On one shoulder are the expectations of my family, and on the other shoulder are the sins of the same people. Originally, I thought that 'ghosts' were born to be killed. It wasn't until the young girls became 'ghosts' that I realized that most of them They just want to have a normal life, but they are born with no choice." Yuan Zhisheng slowly closed his eyes, his words were full of fatigue, "I once killed a woman named Miyamoto Noyuki, her skin It was very white, sickly white, like snow. In the end, she died in the sunshine. At that moment, she had deeply transformed into a dragon, and her face was covered with ferocious scales and thorns, but I thought her smile was beautiful at that moment."

"Child, this is the contradiction of a big man, right?" Uesugoshi said, "You have to do a lot of things, but you can't do a lot of things. You can't meet everyone's expectations. In the end, you don't trust yourself. .”

After Yuan Zhisheng closed his eyes, his vision was dark, and the warm yellow kerosene lamp of the ramen stall swayed gently above his head, like a fire, very warm, close at hand, but out of reach... everything Moths all want to fly toward the fire, but they all end up freezing to death or burning to death.

Amaterasu, can really illuminate all "ghosts"... This sentence rang in my mind again, the woman asked gently, but her voice was so stubborn, hitting Yuan Zhisheng like a heavy hammer. His chest made him breathless.
