Chapter 171: Little Brat
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Qin Jiu brought them in, they would meet some people greeting each other from time to time.
“Yo, where did Qin Jiu bring this brat from?”
Qin Jiu smiled and waved his hand. “The brat from District Seven is here to look for Zhao.”
The Nightmare Cat was speechless.
‘You’re the brats. Your entire family are brats. I’m old enough to be your ancestor!’
A certain cat cursed in its heart.
In the office of the person in charge of District One.
Zhao, whom Qin Jiu was talking about, was scolding something loudly.
“How many times have I told you?! Don’t tear down the house, don’t tear it down. Are you siblings the reincarnation of a husky? Are you so capable?! How many complaints have I received about you? If you want to fight the heretics, fight them properly! Last time you tore down their house, the time before that, you almost burned the forest down. How much money have I spent on you?!”
The two who were being taught a lesson were a pair of siblings. The brother was holding a gun in his hand. It looked like a firearm and was quite big.
However, unlike firearms, it contained some special bullets engraved with runes that were specially used to deal with heretics.
The other girl carried a huge machete that looked very heavy on her back. It was difficult to believe that such a slender woman would use such a rough and heavy machete.
Lu Xiaocha looked at the machete a few times.
Qin Jiu knocked on the door. “Zhao, someone is looking for you.”
Zhao, who was lecturing them, looked up and met the gazes of the few brats.
“Ahem… That’s all for today. This time, the compensation for destroying several acres of crops and forests will be deducted from your salary. Let me see… Tsk… Your salary will be deducted for the next ten years?!!”
Fu Ye and the others could not help but look sideways. Good lord, they were even more ruthless than Tang Huan.
The siblings were speechless.
They probably wouldn’t be able to repay it in this lifetime.
Zhao: “… Eat instant noodles for the rest of your lives. If it’s not enough, exchange it with points!”
He was furious. “Get lost! Get lost! I’m annoyed just by looking at you!”
The siblings left dejectedly. Before they left, their gazes landed on Fu Ye and Lu Beifeng.
It felt like they could fight.
Fu Ye frowned. ‘F*ck, this gaze is so f*cking familiar.’
Indeed, every district had a few troublemakers.
For example, Tang Huan from their district.
Fu Ye, who did not know his limits, did not consider himself a troublemaker at all.
“You’re the brats from District Seven.”
Zhao was already in his forties. Lu Xiaocha and the others could indeed be considered brats in front of him.
But the Nightmare Cat was unhappy.
What was wrong with all of them? Who were they looking down on from the moment they entered?
Therefore, it opened its mouth and refused to admit it. Xiaocha only said that it could not speak in front of ordinary people, but she did not say that it could not speak in the heretic bureau.
“Who are you calling a little brat? You’re the little brat. I’m old enough to be your ancestor!”
“F*ck!”
Qin Jiu and Old Zhao spoke at the same time.
Qin Jiu said, “This thing can speak? Is it a heretic? That’s not right. Even a heretic can’t speak human language.”
The Nightmare Cat looked at the bumpkin. “You’re too narrow-minded. Is there anything I don’t know?”
Zhao reacted quickly. “You are the captured Nightmare Cat?”
As leaders, they were more well-informed than others. Moreover, Old Sun had shamelessly boasted when he called them.
However, he only said that the mission in the Poison Swamp had brought back two heretics, the Nightmare Cat and the crow, but he did not say where the Nightmare Cat was or how it could speak.
He subconsciously thought that the Nightmare Cat was in District Seven’s heretic bureau.
Unexpectedly…
Good lord, that bastard did it on purpose!
The Nightmare Cat bristled as if its tail had been stepped on.
“What are you talking about? Can’t you talk nicely? Who was caught? I was invited out, do you understand? If it weren’t for the fact that they sincerely invited me out, I wouldn’t be willing to come out.”
Lu Xiaocha and Fu Ye were speechless.
‘You’re getting more and more ridiculous.’
After saying that, the Nightmare Cat glanced at Lu Xiaocha guiltily.
Lu Xiaocha looked at it expressionlessly. ‘Lie. I’ll watch you continue to lie quietly.’
A certain cat shook its ears and wagged its tail, pretending to be mute.
Zhao laughed when he saw this scene.
“How interesting. A Grade S heretic and a spirit beast. Tsk… Why isn’t our District One so lucky?”
After saying that, he looked at Qin Jiu. “When are you going to do the mission? Can you stop caring for your fruits all day?
Qin Jiu rolled his eyes. “I’ll get going first.”
Although he was also very interested in the talking cat, he did not want to take the initiative to work!
Zhao let them sit down and stared at the Nightmare Cat with interest for a while.
“You want to find the Nangong Family’s alchemist to help you refine medicine, right? I can indeed contact the Nangong Family, but let’s get one thing straight first. The Nangong Family is arrogant. They might not be willing to help you refine medicine.”
Lu Xiaocha said, “Let’s try.”
Zhao nodded and made a call in front of them.
After telling the other party about the situation, the other party was silent for two seconds.
“Let them come to the Nangong Family.”
Lu Xiaocha and the others were asking for help, so they naturally had no objections.
In the end, Zhao sent them to the Nangong Family mansion.
The Nangong Family was indeed an aristocratic family of alchemists. Their mansion was like a big mansion from ancient times. They had a heavy sense of history and gave people a solemn and ancient feeling.
After knocking a few times, the concierge opened the door and looked at them.
“Come in. I’ll bring you to Second Young Master.”
Zhao contacted the Second Young Master of the Nangong Family.
The west courtyard was where the Second Young Master of the Nangong Family lived. The house was very big, and it took them a long time to reach it.
In the courtyard, a man in his early twenties was pouring tea. On his left and right sat a young girl in a light pink Confucian dress and a young man in a yellow ancient dress.
For a moment, Lu Beichen and the rest thought that they had transmigrated!
Good lord, the people here were all dressed in ancient clothes.
Judging from the way they dressed, this must be the tradition of the Nangong Family.
The man in green was the person they were looking for this time.
“You’re the ones that Zhao Qing said came to look for me to refine medicine, right?”
His attitude was considered gentle, but the girl on his left sneered.
“Now everyone comes to the Nangong Family to make medicine. They really treat us as their own Apothecary.”
Her disdainful and arrogant attitude was ignored by Lu Xiaocha and the others.
She was just an idiot. There was no need to pay attention to her.
“Yes, I’ll pay you when I refine it.”
