Crossing the Homeland

Chapter 49

Sun Ze on the side reminded: "When you arrive at the county lord's mansion, it's best to be cautious. Although there will definitely be a special woman in the mansion to take care of the ingredients, everything that passes through our hands must be watched with our own eyes from the beginning to the end. Feel free to use it. It will be fine after the tenth day of the lunar new year, and Axia will be more miserable these two days."

At dusk on the ninth day of the lunar new year, Sun Ze personally sent Xia Junyan to take the sign sent from the county lord's mansion.The ingredients have been pulled back in advance by the boy in the county lord's mansion.At this moment, Xia Junyan was empty-handed and didn't bring anything. This was also to prevent assassins and the like from getting in.

"Axia looks very nervous." Sun Ze comforted, "It's okay, Axia's two dishes will definitely come out on top."

"I always feel a little uneasy..." Xia Junyan went through all the steps in her mind several times to make sure that she had not missed anything, but she still felt that something had been forgotten.

"By the way!" Xia Junyan's footsteps faltered, "Why haven't I seen Chef Li these days?"

Sun Ze explained: "He asked his uncle for leave. His mother-in-law is sick, and he is going home to watch."

The two walked to the entrance of the alley, and saw a lot of painful groans faintly coming from inside.Xia Junyan was startled, and saw seven or eight boys curled up and tossing and turning in pain on the ground, all of them with bruised noses and swollen faces!Sun Ze immediately protected her behind him.

Xia Junyan's mind went blank. Is this a large-scale brawl between ancient gangsters?The two quickly left this land of right and wrong.After walking a little further, Xia Junyan said: "Are those people out of their minds? Although this is the Jiaomen alley on the county lord's mansion, they actually have the guts to fight here!"

Seeing that Sun Ze's expression was not relaxed, Xia Junyan asked softly, "What's wrong?"

"There are some boys from the gambling house." Sun Ze frowned, "They are all in the same group! I don't know who taught them a lesson, and there are so many people, it is impossible for the county lord's mansion not to hear the movement. But now ..."

Seven or eight thugs were lying in the alley, only groaning faintly.If they hadn't passed by, no one would have noticed.This is not a brawl, but a unilateral massacre!

In a corner outside the county lord's mansion, a boy in common clothes stood, and said impatiently to the person who came: "Xiao Mo, you are too slow! Aren't you just a few boys, do you need to take action? Simply It’s like killing a chicken with a bull’s knife!”

The man didn't speak, just stood aside silently, exuding a gloomy aura all over his body.

The commoner brother sighed: "Forget it, I can go to the county lord's mansion by myself. You are tall and big, and it is not easy to hide when you go in. Just find a corner and squat down, so that no one will find you." After thinking for a while, before leaving, he said, "Don't think about those messy things! Those who work in our line of work, wanting to become an official is simply a daydream!"

The man looked at the entrance of the alley, his eyes suddenly lit up, and in just an instant, he returned to the cold and calm before.

"Axia, what are you doing there? The lady in charge of the county lord's mansion has already started urging her." Sun Ze trotted all the way, and finally followed.

Xia Junyan deliberately walked to the corner of the Jiaomen alley. The alley was empty, and there was no one in sight. "It's strange... just now, was it a hallucination?" Xia Junyan murmured to herself, and when she looked up and saw Sun Ze's anxious face, she was quite embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "I'm coming!"

The breeze blew, and the treetops moved slightly.After a while, a figure jumped down and left quickly.
