Pure Darkness

Chapter 112

After Bo Jinyan and Jian Yao left, silence seemed to envelop the courtyard. His face was indifferent, Zhao Kun stood up and said, “Not playing anymore, I will smoke.” Qin Sheng looked towards the clock and said, “I have to go and look into the account.”

Oi! I am an article!

Zheng Chen had already left with Song Kun. No matter who he met, Zheng Chen would always be very close to protecting him. Gu An chuckled softly, as if laughing at the sudden evasive behavior of his friends. He also came out of the yard.

Zhao Kun lived in a separate black house next to the inn. His nature is such that he likes calmness and simplicity, that there is almost no decoration, and the walls are clearly painted. She loved gardening, so the whole yard was filled with green, causing this dark house to attract quite attention.

However, the woman was careless and crazy. He is 30 years old and has also committed crimes. Due to one precise incident, she met and fell in love with Zhao Kun, and remained with him until this very moment. Although Zhao Kun sometimes played around outside, this woman did not care. After all, he was the one who lived in that house. She is the woman of one of the Five Luohan Hand Buddhas; how many people in jianghu should call her as ‘kak kak in-law’?

When Zhao Kun returned home that day, he heard the woman dancing in the room, and he thought she was still drinking. He did not greet her but went straight to his own room. The woman was not allowed into this room, which was full of firearms. Several brothers of the Buddha's Hand have visited him to admire his contents and to be full of praise.

Zhao Kun lit a cigarette and sat by the window to smoke. In recent years, his tobacco addiction has worsened, and drugs have also emerged. He felt like his lungs were about to rot, leaving behind a large cavity. But, today, he smokes with a bit of anxiety, one cigarette after another, while staring at the building next to – Buddhist Hand inns.

No gunshots were heard, and the figures of the two men did not appear anywhere.

Oi! I am an article!

After Zhao Kun finished smoking, he sat down on the boss chair behind the table. The taste of nicotine made him feel relaxed, and he smiled faintly while putting his hands behind his head. What came to mind was the first time he stood outside Bo Jinyan's courtyard. Through the window, he saw the hazy silhouette of two people. Then, he threw his cigarette butts into the mud and turned to tell his subordinates, “They are most likely police. Tomorrow, report this to the boss, then get rid of them. ”

However, these two people had now become the hot new rookies of the Buddha Hand.

Their lives are really long.

Zhao Kun smiled meaningfully.

At the same time, Qin Sheng actually returned to the account office on the first floor of the inn, where he observed several accountants working under him settling accounts. From a young age, Qin Sheng had always liked everything related to numbers, and had even attained a Certificate in Accounting and become a Certified Public Accountant. Later, when he joined the Buddha Hand, his presence caused the Buddha Hand to grow stronger*. After working together for over two years, the Buddha Hand felt comfortable giving him control over all financial matters. If one were to ask who among the Five Luohans most likely had the confidence of the Buddha Hand, Qin Sheng assumed it was himself. Ahh. . . The Buddha's hand could not do without him. It could even be said that, because he controlled the account, he controlled part of the Buddhist Hand lifeline.

*T/N (ru hu tian yi) – lit up. like a tiger that has grown wings; ara. with doubled strength.

Qin Sheng smiled slightly as he thought about this.

Then he looked upstairs. The Smiling Snake Couple had been inside for a long time and had yet to descend.

He looked at his trusted subordinate with a meaningful gaze. His usual smiling demeanor had been replaced with a somewhat gloomy and cold expression. It was as if this was the true nature of the man.

“Supervise them carefully,” Qin Sheng said gently. “If there are any signs of problems*, report to me as soon as possible. Report to me, got it?”

*T/N (feng chui cao dong) – lights up. wind blowing and grass moving; fig. sign of disturbance or problem.

Of them all, Gu An was probably the most extravagant and extravagant bastard. He occupied the tallest building to the east of the inn and even specifically summoned 20 younger brothers to remodel it. Although transportation in this small town was a challenge, he insisted on asking for special permission from the Buddha Hand and bringing along a lot of imported furniture.

He always had three women in the house. If one of them became unpleasant in his eyes, he would exchange it for someone new. The house is full of red wine. He loved feathers, and often went hunting by himself in the nearby mountains. He would skin foxes and rabbits while they were still alive to make fur for himself to wear and to give to those women. Needless to say that his skill was commendable, and the fur he made was extremely shiny and smooth.

Like the others, he was addicted to smoking and drugs. Everyone in the Buddha's Hands knew, if Gu An's laundered drug addiction flared up, it would be the scariest thing; he might even slash at someone when he caught them. So, everyone was hiding far away, far away from him. Unlike Zhao Kun's spirit of loyalty and self-sacrifice as well as Qin Sheng's firm demeanor, or Qin Sheng's preference for trying diplomacy before violence, his style of governing his younger siblings was strict and unreasonable. If he feels a connection with someone, he is even willing to give that person one of his women, as well as distribute large amounts of money. Whoever upsets him, no matter how capable he is of proving himself, he will still beat up * that person. However, these past few years, he was the subordinate who had made the greatest contribution to the Buddha Hand, and also the most influential. The Buddha's hand also seems to be very tolerant of these subordinates who live larger than life. Thus, even though Zhao Kun and Qin Sheng were unhappy with Gu An's appearance, they gradually realized that they could only treat him equally.

*T/N (lao da) – refers to the oldest child in the family, or the leader of the gang.

*T/N (ti wu wan fu) – flares. cuts and bruises everywhere; ara. is completely denied.

Now, Gu An entered the building. The first thing he did was to grab a bottle of wine and drink until his senses blurred. At this point, a woman injures herself around her and slips her hand into her groin. Gu An pushed him to one side with one quick move and said, cynically, “Go! Why don't you look in the mirror and see what you look like?” The woman was so frightened that she hurriedly ran into the room. The other two women did not dare to go out either; they knew that she was in a bad mood today, even if they did not know what had possessed her goat.

Gu An stumbled upstairs alone, closed the door, slumped onto the chair and threw away the wine. He looked at the foggy sky outside the window and sighed slowly.

He also stared at the inn. However, the place remained silent and did not move.

Ahhh. . . Smiling Snake.

The Smiling Snake that will enter the Buddha Hand and align with it. Gu An laughed out loud. Suddenly, Gu An picked up a rifle from the table. With a quick and loud movement, like a cheetah, he rushed to the window in an instant and aimed towards the inn.

He kept his goal, not moving.

The gangsters walked past him, but he paid them no heed.

Some of the townspeople walked past him, but he also paid them no heed.

Until . . . a familiar figure began to be seen.

Tall and skinny, short black hair, wearing a white lab coat, with a medical bag in his hand. That person was walking quietly in front of the inn, probably there to treat someone.

What Gu An disliked the most was the appearance of the doctor who had always been dignified and refined. He smiled cunningly and lowered his head to aim.

A damper is affixed to its muzzle.

However, when the bullets shot out the window, past the branches, flew with the wind and slid along the way to finally land on the ground under Wen Rong's feet, he was still very shocked. Wen Rong reflexively placed the medical bag on his head and squatted under the roof of a nearby building.

Wen Rong's pale face became even paler. He took a deep breath and looked around. The windows of the surrounding buildings were all empty; no one was there. His face turned cold, and he walked away with quick steps.

Zheng Chen leaned against the wall in the corridor. He held a gun, and his expression was calm.

Some gangsters passed through one end of the corridor. Looking at his appearance, they knew that the Buddha Hand was discussing something with someone, and did not dare to come and disturb him.

Zheng Chen was an expert in silence. Once, in order to kill someone on the orders of the Buddha Hand, he had been squatting in the rain forest on the border for three days and three nights continuously. Despite bleeding from the bites of insects and snakes all over his body, he acted as if nothing had happened. When he finally killed his target, he cut off the person's head and brought it back to the Buddha's Hand.

Everyone said he was the shadow of the Buddha Hand. He is also willing to become a shadow, because being a shadow is not something that everyone can do. That is, the Hand of Buddha willingly and confidently has you covered his back, you and yourself. You learn all the secrets, and even though you seem like a shadow, you see most of the darkness and deceit.
