Xu Jing couldn't understand why falling in love could be like being infected with a virus, where people could go crazy and shout for war and killing. How was he any different from the previous male protagonist Xue Mingqi?
Xue Mingqi destroyed the Xie family, and Xie Zhiyi continued to destroy the world after his rebirth.
If the whole world will die regardless of whether they are in a relationship or not, then what is the meaning of their existence? Saving one person will save the whole world?
"Don't try to fool people next time." If he could travel back in time, he would definitely scold Xie Zhiyi. If he died, he died. There was no need to go crazy over him, right?
I felt a moist feeling on my left hand, and when I looked closely, I saw it was covered with dense water droplets.
Xu Jing didn't get angry but laughed instead. He was still feeling wronged after a few words? If you didn't know him, you would think he was the abuser!
Meng You said helplessly: "So you have to atone for his sins."
"I won't do it. I'll do my own thing. There's no need for me to bear everything for him."
Xu Jing wasn't the Holy Father, and no one would pay for someone else's mistakes. "Let him handle it himself."
"Really not doing it?" Meng You patted his shoulder. He knew that Xu Jing was always soft-hearted and would not respond to hardship. There was no way he could use this trick. He didn't expect that it would be of no use at all. He had to waste tens of thousands of dollars on special effects.
The truth is different. Xie Zhiyi also wanted to save him, but it wasn't as exaggerated as Meng You said. He was just doing good deeds to gain Xu Jing's chance of rebirth.
But according to normal logic, such a story is obviously not moving. So Meng You had a bold idea to portray Xie Zhiyi as an unforgivable villain to arouse Xu Jing's guilt, but it turned out to be useless. He still didn't react.
"Then I will introduce the task to Xiao Ji. Xiao Ji is also in urgent need of money to improve his life."
Xu Jing frowned and hooked his arm around Meng You's shoulder. "What can he do there? Get bullied? And according to what you said, he's here for me. How can he be interested in Xiao Ji?"
"You never know." Meng You gave a malicious smile. "Maybe he likes to take charge?"
"With me here, he doesn't have the chance."
"It's there since Xiao Ji came." Meng You sighed and pulled his hand away. "Okay, do you want to do it?"
"Do it." Xu Jing said angrily, "Next time you need to deal with a mess, don't ask me to do it. This won't happen again."
Meng You smiled with a look of triumph. "Alright, see you in two days."
Two days later, Xu Jing showed up at the company on time.
As soon as Xu Jing lay down in the nutrition cabin, he heard the sound of a horn.
"Master, Master, something's wrong!"
Outside, someone was banging on the door. "Master, wake up! Enemy attack!"
Xu Jing quickly put on his clothes and opened the door.
The master gasped and said, "The Russians are coming to kill us, Master, run for your life!"
"Where are you fleeing to?"
"It's too late, sir. It's more important to save your life. As long as you have the green mountains, you will not be short of firewood. When the time comes, let your family spend some money so that you can move to another place to continue your official position."
The master pushed Xu Jing and was about to run out, but was bumped by a servant who was walking towards him.
"Oh, you have no eyes. Can you afford to pay for breaking the master's three-ounce bones?"
Zang Yun said with a sad face: "The front gate has been blocked by soldiers. Please go through the back gate, sir."
"What are you still standing there for? Go and clear the way." The lawyer stood up with the help of the pillar and did not forget to order people to pack up their belongings. "Master, please follow Zangyun quickly and don't look back."
Xu Jing was confused and finally managed to gather the words "enemy attack, Russians launched a fierce attack" from his master's conversation.
The original owner should be the local magistrate.
When the enemy attacks, officials who abandon the city and flee are sentenced to death at the very least, while serious punishments include the execution of their entire family.
Xu Jing could foresee that if he escaped with his lackey, his master and others, he would be hacked to death when he went out the back door.
If that doesn't work, we have to find another way out.
"Zang Yun, why are the officers and soldiers coming out?"
Zang Yun said with a sullen face, "It was Guard Liu who organized the officers and soldiers from the county to go and provide reinforcements."
Xu Jing angrily said, "How dare a garrison commander take control of the government? Are you planning a rebellion?"
"Master, this is none of your business." The lackey sighed and said, "All you have to do now is escape. Don't worry about anything else. Leave the county government to Liu Shoubei."
"If something serious happens, will you be held responsible? Zang Yun, open the front door. I'll go talk to Commander Liu."
"Master." The lawyer tried to persuade him again, but Xu Jing glared at him. "If you want to run away, run away. I am the local leader, how can I abandon the city and flee? If you say anything more, I will beat you to death."
The lawyer immediately shut up and glanced at Zang Yun with pleading eyes. Zang Yun pretended not to see and opened the door of the county government office.
Outside the door, it was clearly night, but because of the torches it was as bright as day.
A group of soldiers holding torches lined up in a row, revealing Liu Yuhe, the garrison commander in the middle, dressed in military uniform and looking heroic.
Liu Yuhe saw Xu Jing coming out and bowed. "Sir Jiang, in this urgent matter, I wish to take the officers and soldiers from the county government office to resist the foreign invaders. Is this request too much?"
Xu Jing really wanted to slap him in the face. With all the soldiers stationed at the county government office gone, it would be a mere shell. What if refugees came and burned, killed, and looted? They really didn't care about their lives at all.
Xu Jing returned the salute and sneered, "Sir Liu, you're just a forage officer, so why are you showing off here at my gates, instead of taking care of your own military supplies? Aren't you afraid I'll impeach you for not upholding the right path and abusing your authority for personal gain?"
Before he could finish his words, a dark-skinned man holding two axes rushed out from the side door and said murderously: "Brother, why waste time talking to the bird magistrate? Let's just kill him and take the order and live happily on our own."
The master behind him was so scared that he was shaking like a sieve. If you didn’t know, you would think they were filming "Water Margin".
"Shut up and get out of my way." Liu Yuhe kicked him, his voice a touch impatient. "Sir Jiang, the city walls are almost collapsing. If the rebels rush in, burning, killing, and looting, can you, as a county magistrate, bear the responsibility? Sir Jiang, how about we both take a step back and just pretend this never happened and let me take the token and leave?"
Of course not. Xu Jing felt that it was unreliable to let the guards of the grain and grass go to the battle, so it would be better for him to go himself.
"Zang Yun, tell the soldiers of the county yamen to accompany me to the city wall to defend against the enemy. If you disobey me, don't blame me for turning my back on you. I will arrest you and throw you all into jail."
"With you, aren't you afraid of your tongue slipping when you speak?" The black man grinned, his white teeth shining especially brightly in the darkness. "People like you should just stay in the county government office and sleep. Leave the defense of the city to us."
"Tie Niu, please don't be rude." Liu Yuhe cupped his hands and said, "Master Jiang, please forgive Tie Niu's rudeness. In an emergency, I will..."
Xu Jing interrupted him. "Since you know this is urgent, there's no need to waste time talking, Commander Liu. Zangyun, pack up your things, let's go!"
