Chapter 10

Bianliang, Kaifeng Prefecture,

jail,

just arriving here, Zhang Cheng appeared very relaxed.

After all, advanced studies, this is a very common thing everywhere!

Don't you see that Chang Wei of "Corner Head" had to go get gilded?

Besides, he had survived; Bao Zheng had already given him enough face!

"Move aside!"

Coming into the crowd, Zhang Cheng found a seat and sat down.

Looking at the person beside him, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but say, "Brother, how did you get in?"

"Theft!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng’s "experienced" appearance, the somewhat thin man hurriedly explained.

"Theft? How are you so incompetent? Why don't you hang out with me when you get out?"

Patting the man on the shoulder, Zhang Cheng asked.

"I stole from a Prince’s mansion, and in two days I'll be exiled three thousand miles. Wuwuwu!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng’s words, the man felt aggrieved.

"Ah, exiled three thousand miles, then have a safe journey!"

Looking at the man in surprise, Zhang Cheng hadn't expected that the other party was so daring, actually daring to go to a Prince’s mansion to commit burglary.

"What about this brother? Hey, brother, why is your pectoral muscle so exaggerated?"

Looking at the "man" before him in astonishment, Zhang Cheng blinked his eyes, looking very confused.

Because he had only seen someone with such an exaggerated pectoral muscle on Feng Suzhen!

Turning his head, Bai Yutang, who was looking at Zhang Cheng, said directly, "Don't force me to hit you!"

[The Mouse Falls in Love with the Cat!]

"Okay, Brother!"

Nodding, Zhang Cheng immediately became honest.

Because he didn't want to be beaten on his first day in, so he had better be honest for now!

Thinking of this, Zhang Cheng took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.

"Puff!"

Exhaling a thick cloud of smoke, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but secretly say, "Cousin is with Feng Suzhen, there shouldn't be any problems, right!"

However, just as Zhang Cheng was thinking, Bai Yutang stepped forward and said, "Brother, what is this? You can actually bring it in!"

"Oh, you mean this? Huazi!"

Pointing at the cigarette in his hand, Zhang Cheng explained.

But in the next second, Bai Yutang asked, "Then what about the thing that lights the Huazi? I remember fire-starters can't be brought in, right?"

"This is not a fire-starter... this... alright, this is a fire-starter!"

Holding the lighter in his hand, Zhang Cheng didn't know how to explain it, so he had better follow the local customs!

"Hey, this thing is not bad, it lights up with one touch. It's truly a good thing for murder and arson, essential for the home!"

Looking at the lighter in surprise, Bai Yutang’s eyes began to shine.

However, just as Bai Yutang was playing with the lighter, Zhang Cheng vaguely smelled something, as if something was burning.

"Wait, what is burning?"

Sniffing his nose, Zhang Cheng turned his head in confusion.

But upon seeing the straw in the cell being lit, he immediately rushed to the cell door and shouted, "Help, fire!"

A long time later, when Zhan Zhao arrived and put out the fire, he was already smoked beyond recognition.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Patting his chest, Zhang Cheng said awkwardly, "This has nothing to do with me, do you believe me?"

"I believe you, you just arrived and there's a fire. Do you think I'm a fool?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng angrily, Zhan Zhao shouted.

"This really has nothing to do with me, it's his problem!"

Pointing at Bai Yutang behind him, Zhang Cheng immediately pushed him out.

"Hmm?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in confusion, Bai Yutang also wiped the dust off his face and said, "I have something to say, he was the one who brought the fire-starter in!"

Looking at each other, Zhang Cheng and Bai Yutang both seemed to want to say one thing:

You bastard, you dare to betray me!

"Enough, lock these two up and guard them strictly!"

Shouting angrily, Zhan Zhao snatched the "fire-starter" from Bai Yutang’s hand and said, "This thing belongs to the yamen now!"

"Hey, hey, hey, that’s mine!"

Watching Zhan Zhao leave, Zhang Cheng shouted.

Returning to the yamen, Zhan Zhao looked at Gongsun Ce and immediately began to wash off the ash on his body.

"Is everything alright in the jail?"

Asking Zhan Zhao, Gongsun Ce began to speak.

"Everything is fine, just a prisoner playing with a fire-starter and lighting the straw! But it’s strange, how did they bring it in!"

Saying this, Zhan Zhao took out the lighter and said, "Mr. Gongsun, take a look at this!"

"Oh, what is this? It looks quite exquisite!"

Looking at the lighter in surprise, Gongsun Ce asked.

"This thing is that fire-starter. Look!"

Looking at Gongsun Ce, Zhan Zhao pressed it.

"Click!"

A flame shot up, immediately making Gongsun Ce exclaim.

"This thing is actually a fire-starter? And so clever!"

Looking at the lighter in surprise, Gongsun Ce also tried it twice, feeling it was quite handy.

"Mr. Gongsun, you can't do this, please return my fire-starter!"

Watching Gongsun Ce actually put the lighter into his sleeve, Zhan Zhao said speechlessly.

"Oh, Zhan Guard, it's just a fire-starter, do you have to haggle with me?"

Looking at Zhan Zhao before him, Gongsun Ce smiled.

"But..."

Hearing Gongsun Ce’s words, Zhan Zhao still wanted to say something, but was stopped by Gongsun Ce, "We are in the same yamen, why haggle so much? I have things to do, I'll go first..."

Just as Gongsun Ce left, Zhan Zhao suddenly came to his senses and said the same thing as Zhang Cheng, "Wait, that’s mine!"

Inside the jail,

Zhang Cheng and Bai Yutang were looking at each other.

"Click!"

Taking out a new lighter, Zhang Cheng lit a cigarette.

Looking at this scene in astonishment, Bai Yutang hurriedly leaned in and said, "You still have more?"

"You want one?"

Looking at Bai Yutang curiously, Zhang Cheng asked.

"I do!"

Nodding like a chicken pecking at rice, Bai Yutang hurriedly spoke.

Because that fire-starter just now didn't look as good as this one!

If Zhang Cheng knew Bai Yutang’s thoughts, he would definitely say that the one just now was one yuan each, and this one was two yuan each!

"Call me Brother Cheng and listen!"

Looking at Bai Yutang beside him, Zhang Cheng raised his eyebrows.

"Brother Cheng!"

Speaking without hesitation, Bai Yutang didn't refuse at all.

After all, once the fire-starter was in hand, who was the brother was yet to be determined!

"Very good, Brother Cheng gives it to you!"

Handing the fire-starter to Bai Yutang, Zhang Cheng suddenly stopped his hand.

"Aren't you going to give it to me?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in surprise, Bai Yutang was dumbfounded.

"That, I can give it to you, but you can't play with fire anymore!"

Looking earnestly at Bai Yutang, Zhang Cheng hurriedly advised.

Because this person was truly a "ruthless person."

You have to know, they were in the jail, and there was a lock outside, yet she still dared to light it!

"I won't play, don't worry!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with a smile, Bai Yutang smiled.

However, half a quarter of an hour later, shrill screams rang out again.

"Help, help, fire!"

Half an hour later, Zhan Zhao appeared in the jail again, his face pitch black.

Looking at the disheveled Zhang Cheng and Bai Yutang, he took a deep breath and said, "Hand over the fire-starter!"

"No... no!"

Shaking his head, Bai Yutang hurriedly hid her hand.

But it was this action that was keenly noticed by Zhan Zhao.

Before long, Zhan Zhao left with a brand-new fire-starter, a look of satisfaction on his face.

Turning his head to look at Zhang Cheng, Bai Yutang was about to speak.

But Zhang Cheng shouted, "It's gone!"

"If it's gone, it's gone, why are you so fierce!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng speechlessly, Bai Yutang muttered. It was just almost burning him to death twice, did he have to be so angry?

Zhang Cheng: Twice? Twice!
