Chapter 822: Continuing Life in Fifty Years 105
Tong Qisheng felt like his heart was about to jump out of his throat. He pressed his chest with all his strength, muttering, "Hey, you noisy guy, can you please calm down for a while?"
The finger used too much force, and it was almost like an eggplant hit by frost. Not only was there no blood in it, but sweat was pouring out of the palm of its hand like water.
His body trembled slightly, and then he slowly reached into the inner pocket of his Zhongshan suit.
His movements were very cautious, as if he had some treasure hidden in his pocket. Indeed, he took out the Hetian jade pendant from his pocket.
Under the cold moonlight, the surface that was originally as smooth as jade now had two cracks that looked like spider webs. It was really eye-catching.
"Oh, my sweetheart!" Tong Qisheng looked at the jade pendant and grimaced with heartache.
He has always treated this jade pendant as a treasure. In the past seven days, it has helped him avoid two fatal disasters!
"Our girl gave it to me. The craftsmanship of the person who made the amulet is so solid!" He muttered softly, with the corners of his mouth raised and a hint of luck flashing in his eyes.
However, this smile did not last long, and it turned a little bitter. His fingers gently stroked the cracks on the jade pendant, and the feeling in his heart was extremely complicated.
At this moment, Tong Qisheng's boot tip was not polite at all, and he kicked hard at the gray-robed monk lying on the ground.
The monk's right shoulder was dislocated and covered in blood, which was terrifying to look at.
"Bastard!" Tong Qisheng cursed.
It turned out that just now, the monk had secretly shot him. If it weren't for this life-saving jade pendant, he would have lost his life.
"Brother Tong, please wait a minute!"
Yu Hai quickly grabbed Tong Qisheng, who was fuming. This veteran from the logistics department always had that worldly smile on his face, like he was wearing a mask.
"Are you going to send the abbot of Lin'an Temple to hell? Last month, the director of the CPPCC said we should unite with the religious community to carry out united front work..."
"United Front work!"
Tong Qisheng wiped the bloody dagger clean angrily and put it back into his boot. His movements were neat and quick.
"The codebook we found on that bald donkey is enough to get him shot ten times!"
As he spoke, he shook his numb wrist and kept muttering, "Oh, that 'Su Qin Carrying a Sword' move just now was really dangerous. If I hadn't learned the physical training techniques in Xi'an for a few days and twisted my waist at the critical moment, I'm afraid I would have been drinking tea with the King of Hell by now!"
At this moment, Zhao Lin's bicycle bell suddenly rang at the entrance of the alley, and the sound was so clear that it could wake people's ears.
At this moment, Tong Qisheng and Yu Hai were working hard to stuff the monk into the sack, just like stuffing cotton.
This middle-aged police officer, who was usually a bit out of tune, stared at Tong Qisheng's amulet with a strange look in his eyes. "Brother Tong, your treasure..."
"Don't even think about it!"
Tong Qisheng took the jade pendant back without thinking, as fast as lightning.
He carefully put the jade pendant into his shirt pocket, and the scene of his daughter tying the red rope for him suddenly popped up in his mind.
"That little girl who always likes to hold the archaeological atlas given by Professor Sheng, should be busy in the mountains right now?"
A thought surged in his heart, and a gentle smile unconsciously appeared on his face.
Yu Hai tied the sack to the back seat of Zhao Lin's bicycle and took a picture. "Hurry up and send it to your uncle and his family. We'll have some mutton hotpot later..."
At this time, Tong Qisheng suddenly remembered the dream that kept appearing last night.
In the dream, the Tong family’s old house looked like a drowned chicken in the heavy rain, looking miserable.
In the sealed sandalwood cabinet, the yellowed account books were slowly rotting in the mildew. The scene was simply a nightmare.
"This dream is so unlucky!" Tong Qisheng couldn't help but complain.
Those scenes, like a movie, kept playing in his head, making him feel heavier, as if he was carrying a mountain on his back.
...
At this moment, white steam was coming out of the copper pot of mutton hotpot, and the fragrance filled the whole room, which was really mouth-watering.
Yu Hai said quietly, "Director Guo is back."
"That old fox is in a hurry to come back even though his injury hasn't fully healed yet!" Yu Hai said as he skillfully filled the cup with chrysanthemum white. His movements were smooth and fluid, and it was obvious that he was a veteran.
"Do you think that if we cross the border to arrest someone this time, will it make him unhappy?" Zhao Lin asked worriedly.
"If they can't catch us, we'll do it for them. What else do they want?" Tong Qisheng picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
"That's right. My old man has never given us a good face. Ever since I and my brother caught those old enemy spies, this is the first time the old man has been kind to me." Yu Hai stuffed the mutton wrapped in sesame sauce into his mouth and chewed it slowly.
Tong Qisheng glanced at Yu Hai and said, "We were not allowed to speak out when we were doing underground work, but your father must have known about it. The military logistics department didn't stop you, which is really a big deal for you."
"It's so frustrating to have to look at the faces of those young masters in Peking and not be able to take any action." Zhao Lin drank a cup of wine.
"I'm going to be transferred to Xi'an to live with my little one. What about you?" Tong Qisheng glanced at his two friends calmly.
Yu Hai didn't even think twice, "Follow me, we've been brothers for so many years, you can't abandon me."
Zhao Lin also nodded in agreement, "Just find some connections. I'm in the police system now, so I can just transfer over there."
Zhao Lin suddenly lowered his voice, like a thief. "Brother Tong, you said the spy we caught this time..."
"It's a token of our allegiance, proving we have what it takes." Tong Qisheng skillfully threw the lamb leg into the boiling soup, his movements very graceful.
"After a while, we'll figure out a way to redeploy the troops back to the logistics department."
As he said this, the old green goats raised by his daughter suddenly popped up in his mind, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
"The mountain products over there are really good stuff, the dried pheasants and rabbits, the smell is enough to make one drool just thinking about it." As he spoke, he couldn't help smacking his lips.
"A policy of unified purchase and sale..."
A look of worry appeared on Zhao Lin's face, and his brows were furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly.
"Stupid!" Yu Hai knocked on the edge of the bowl with chopsticks, the sound was crisp and loud.
"Let your uncle come forward and sign the contract in the name of procurement for the retirement home. Isn't that a natural thing to do?" The three of them smiled at each other, and the laughter echoed in the room.
The night breeze outside the window, carrying the fragrance of locust flowers, blew gently into the house, adding a different kind of warmth to this lively scene.
"Oh, this thing is almost done tonight, we have to celebrate it properly!" Tong Qisheng said with a smile.
"That's right, you have to eat more mutton to replenish your body!" Zhao Lin also echoed.
"And this Chrysanthemum White, you have to drink it to your heart's content!" Yu Hai raised his glass and said loudly.
Then, the three of them started eating and drinking again, and the atmosphere was extremely lively. As they ate, they chatted, their laughter and conversation intertwined, as if all their worries had been thrown away.
