374: Chapter 371 Going Home (Part 2)
That's right, this last person was none other than Daoist Zhou Sheng, that fellow Old Zhou who acted like a charlatan all day and possessed the ability to turn himself into a king.
Originally, Li Changsheng had also invited the Azure Dragon, but in the end, he chose to return to his residence in the capital and then head directly northwest to his old home in Mongolia.
"Hey, Old Zhou, why are you being so resistant? It's not like we're going to a coal mine to dig coal; we're going to the Li family's farmhouse resort, it's going to be so enjoyable!"
"Sigh, Old Zhou, what do you mean by staying silent? Are you not giving me, Old Zhang, any Face?"
Smack!~
"Hey, you're still being stubborn, I'll be damned!"
Smack~
"Hah, you've got backbone. Let's see if you can keep quiet forever!"
Just as Zhang Zhao was preparing to raise his palm, which was as big as a palm-leaf fan, again, Wan Qianhe hurriedly stopped him.
"Are you blind? Old Zhou has something stuffed in his mouth."
Hearing Wan Qianhe's words, Old Zhou, whose Face was swollen like a steamed bun, nodded repeatedly and shot him a grateful look.
"Uh... forgot, forgot."
Zhang Zhao laughed awkwardly and hurriedly pulled the sock out of Old Zhou's mouth.
Almost the moment the sock was removed, Old Zhou immediately began to curse, "Old Zhang, I'll f*ck your mother, damn you, you son of a b*tch!"
"Huh? What did he say?" Old Zhang scratched his head.
The car fell into a brief silence.
After a long while, Master Wan, who was well-versed in traditional studies and came from a scholarly family, coughed lightly, "Uh... he wants to f*ck your mother, and then he said you are a son of a b*tch."
"F*ck me!"
Upon hearing this, Old Zhang was instantly enraged. He went up and slapped Old Zhou a few more times, making Old Zhou's already plump Face look even rounder.
After a moment, Old Zhou's temper seemed to have been beaten out of him. He looked at Old Zhang and begged for mercy, "The rat has skin, but a man has no dignity. If a man has no dignity, why not just die?"
Old Zhang had learned his lesson this time. He paid no attention to the seemingly sincere plea on Old Zhou's Face and turned to look at Old Wan, "What does that mean?"
"Uh... he said you are shameless, not even as good as a rat, and why don't you just go die."
"F*ck me, Old Zhou, I knew you would only bully me for not being educated!"
Old Zhang was furious and slapped him a few more times.
The sound of slapping was endless, and this time, Old Zhou was completely subdued.
With tears in his eyes, he looked at Wan Qianhe, thinking to himself, whose side are you actually on?
"Ahem, guests, this... this is a society ruled by law, please... don't... don't use corporal punishment!"
Hearing the heart-wrenching wails from the back, the driver in the partition said with a trembling voice.
He always felt that this group of distinguished guests mentioned by his boss didn't seem quite mentally stable.
"Sorry, driver, my two brothers are just in a bad mood recently."
Li Changsheng apologized, then turned to look at the two and shouted, "Alright, Old Zhang, is it really necessary to target Old Zhou like this? And you, Old Zhou, can't you save a little virtue with your mouth?"
Li Changsheng felt very helpless. A large part of the reason why these two were bickering like this was because...
Ever since Zhang Zhao found out about his bet with Old Zhou, he had completely turned into a devil. Every time Li Changsheng went to guide Boss Ma, he would pat his chest and guarantee that he would keep a close watch on Old Zhou.
The result was that Old Zhou was trained half to death, and in return, Old Zhou was dissatisfied, throwing out all sorts of insults whenever he opened his mouth.
Old Zhang, with his explosive temper, couldn't take it, and thus it turned into this.
But to be fair, after this intense training from Old Zhang, Old Zhou's complexion was much better than it had been a few days ago.
Not only was his Face much more ruddy, but his stamina had also improved. Although he was still skinny, his energy levels had definitely shown significant improvement.
With Li Changsheng's shout, the group arrived at the airport.
The tickets had been booked by Boss Ma in advance.

After spending only about an hour, the passenger plane successfully arrived at the Chu Province airport.
"Old Li, you said you were quite popular in your hometown?"
"Mm, I've always been quite low-key, and I get along well with people. When we get to the village, the folk customs are very simple and honest, and the scenery is beautiful. It will be a trip worth taking."
Walking towards the exit, the group chatted and laughed.
But as they walked, everyone became a bit surprised.
"Hey, why are there so many police cars outside? Are they trying to catch some fugitives?"
"Mm, possibly."
Everyone nodded, even Li Changsheng.
After all, when some important criminals were being escorted, the local police would usually collaborate to ensure safety along the way.
But just as they walked out, those police officers walked towards them, and they were walking straight towards them without any deviation.
"What's going on?"
"Don't know, could it be that what we did abroad was exposed?"
"Are you kidding? We were essentially executing justice at the time, and that Old Zhou... I don't think he's simple."
Except for Li Changsheng, the others whispered to each other. First, they ruled out the possibility that this was targeting their actions abroad.
If that was the case, then what was it for?
They saw a middle-aged Advanced police officer in the lead approach with a vigilant expression, cautiously and carefully coming up to Li Changsheng.
"Li Changsheng, Mr. Li, right? I am Jiang He from the Wu City Municipal Bureau of Chu Province. Please come with us!"
Once these words were spoken, everyone went silent, especially Zhang Zhao and Wan Qianhe, whose muscles tensed up.
They looked at Li Changsheng, their eyes seeming to say, "The hell, this is what you call being popular? This is what you call simple and honest folk customs?"
They were all cursing Li Changsheng in their hearts; what a pitfall he was.
Li Changsheng also noticed their strange gazes and highly nervous state. After thinking about it, he immediately realized that these guys had all misunderstood.
The key was that this Jiang He spoke in a strange way.
"Jiang He... Director or..." Li Changsheng asked tentatively.
"Oh, Mr. Li, you can just call me Director Jiang." Jiang He squeezed out a smile, but he was still a bit nervous.
Li Changsheng nodded, roughly guessing the intention of Director Jiang.
"Ahem, Director Jiang, I haven't committed any crimes, right? So, what is this..."
"Haha, Mr. Li, don't worry. Since you and your friends have returned to the country, and you are a friend of Mr. Zhou, it is only natural for us to provide a local escort."
Hearing Director Jiang's words, Li Changsheng rolled his eyes in his heart. Is this how you escort people?
He also understood Director Jiang's cautious posture. He probably feared that these dangerous people would cause some trouble. It looked like they were providing an escort, but in reality, they were transporting a batch of human weapons.
"Alright, then Director Jiang, sorry for the trouble. We are just ordinary people. This really isn't necessary, it's a waste of public resources. It really makes me feel guilty." Li Changsheng sighed.
Hearing this, Director Jiang's smile stiffened. Ordinary people? Feeling guilty?
Although the information about Li Changsheng and the others abroad was classified, he didn't know much from that mysterious Mr. Zhou.
But combined with the information on this Mr. Li from before, plus the fact that Mr. Zhou belonged to such a secretive department, and that a high-level official had asked him to keep an eye on things not long ago...
Even if he were a fool, he would understand that this guy probably didn't stay quiet while abroad.
Thinking about how he had taken down an equivalent of several football teams of Advanced spies before going abroad, he couldn't help but feel a chill.
