Chapter 935

Mainly because this person leading the cow looked to be in his 40s or nearly 50, which should be quite a bit older than Wang Dazhu.

And as a young man of only 20, Wang An absolutely could not bear this kneeling, and as for him kowtowing to Wang An, Wang An could bear it even less.

Mainly because they didn't know each other, and Wang An felt he hadn't done the person any great favor, so if he accepted this kneeling for no reason, it would definitely seriously shorten his lifespan.

Because it is said that the reason Luo Cheng of the Sui and Tang Dynasties was shot to death by arrows at the age of 23 was because he committed 5 rebellious acts, causing his lifespan to be reduced by a full 50 years.

And one of them was because when he was 16, he forced someone older than him to kowtow and acknowledge him as a father, causing Luo Cheng's lifespan to be reduced by 10 years.

Of course, there are many versions regarding the 5 rebellious acts Luo Cheng did that damaged his lifespan, and besides, Luo Cheng did many other despicable things; in fact, no one knows which act actually reduced his lifespan.

Besides, many things were compiled by later generations; whether they are true or false, and whether such things even happened, are all unknown.

Anyway, mouths are on people's bodies; let them say whatever they want.

But no matter what, Wang An couldn't accept this kneeling. Seeing Wang An jump off the sidecar, he instantly moved several steps to the side, avoiding the direction of this person's kowtowing.

Immediately after, Wang An roared in exasperation:

"Oh my god, what the hell are you doing? Why the hell are you kowtowing to me?"

To be honest, at this time, Wang An was quite angry.

Mainly because Wang An felt that his life after rebirth was going quite well, so Wang An still wanted to live a few more years.

And this person, of all things, actually wanted to shorten his lifespan!

Damn! Can that be allowed?

After Wang An finished cursing, the person didn't get up, saying with a crying voice:

"Oh, great official, you are the great official!"

Hearing this person's words, Wang An immediately interrupted loudly:

"Hey, hey, hey, don't talk nonsense. What great official? I'm not one. You better get up quickly, don't make me beat you."

Although Wang An said this, in his heart, he felt helpless and sad for this person.

At the age of 40-something, he must have old parents and young children; otherwise, given the fierce local customs, he would have long ago risked his life against Wei Cheng and the others.

I have to admit, men like this, with old parents, young children, and a wife in the middle, are absolutely the easiest to be controlled.

Because there is no other way; it wouldn't matter if he died himself, but what about his parents, wife, and children??

If he were a bachelor, to be honest, no one could bully him, because there is a good old saying: "The barefooted are not afraid of those wearing shoes."

But then again, if he were a bachelor, Wei Cheng and the others wouldn't lend money to him.

They know too well what the result would be if they lent money to a bachelor.

Hearing Wang An's words that were completely devoid of human sentiment and very beastly and overbearing, and seeing Wang An's fierce look, as if he were about to beat him up at any moment, this person finally stood up from the ground.

Only then did Wang An say in a normal tone:

"If you have something to say, just say it. You're at this age, and you're pulling this stunt with a young man like me; can I bear it? I'm telling you, it's only because I'm in a good mood today, otherwise I'd really beat you."

Hearing this, the person apologized with an embarrassed face:

"Sigh, I was just... little officer, don't mind me, I..."

After stammering for a long time, this person didn't even say a complete sentence, and Wang An couldn't help but interrupt:

"Oh, alright, man, I know what you mean. Let's just leave it at that, and you just go home and live a good life. Wei Cheng and his group are completely finished; put your heart at ease."

After saying these words, Wang An walked toward the sidecar.

To be honest, Wang An truly didn't want to continue dawdling with him; they didn't know each other, so whether you live well or badly, what does it have to do with me?

I'm not Guanyin Bodhisattva; can I save all living beings?

Who knew that just as Wang An got on the sidecar, this person walked a few quick steps to meet him, saying:

"Little officer, look, you solved such a big problem for me and helped me waive so much debt. Why don't you take this calf back to kill and eat? Otherwise, I feel really uneasy in my heart."

"Cheng Jing" is a local dialect meaning "very" or "especially."

Wang An was stunned for a moment upon hearing this; he didn't expect this person to be so decent, thinking about repaying kindness even when he was in such a miserable state.

Calling it "repaying kindness" isn't wrong; after all, in the final analysis, if it weren't for Wang An solving the worries of Li Xiuyu's family, Zhang Shuya and the others might not have known about the existence of Wei Cheng's group.

Even if they knew, Zhang Shuya might not have sent people directly to the countryside to make arrests.

Mainly because in this world, there are always corners that the sun cannot shine upon.

Therefore, the fundamental reason for the downfall of Wei Cheng's group actually lies with Wang An.

Wang An looked at this person with a surprised face, then couldn't help but laugh:

"What do I need a calf for? Besides, that calf is already half-grown; in another year, it can work in the fields. Wouldn't it be a waste to kill it for meat?"

Seeing this person still wanted to speak, Wang An continued:

"Alright, man, we don't need to be like this. You hurry home; I have things to do too."

This person said with a pleading face:

"Little officer, just accept it..."

Wang An pursed his lips, suddenly remembering a sentence he had heard in his past life. Wang An felt that if he said this sentence, it would be quite stylish.

Consequently, Wang An said solemnly:

"Man, remember, the people's police serve the people."

As he spoke, Wang An pretentiously placed his right hand flat on his temple and gave this person a salute.

I don't know why, although Wang An was just a defense member—accurately speaking, he wasn't even a police officer—but after saying this sentence, Wang An felt he had instantly become much greater, and his whole body felt light.

There was a feeling of "leaving after the matter is done, leaving no fame or merit behind."

While this person was still in a daze, Wang An kicked the sidecar to start it and turned to shout at Da Hei:

"Da Hei, let's go home."

Turning his head, Wang An half-released the clutch and twisted the throttle, and the sidecar darted out.

And Da Hei, hearing Wang An's shout, followed along, barking "Wang wang wang wang..."

The other dogs, hearing Da Hei's barking, all followed Da Hei and started running.
