Chapter 40: Finally Awakening(1/2)
The moon was bright and there was no rain, and there was silence all around.
Xu Changsheng and Wu Weihu were hiding behind the door, each holding a wooden stick. Wu Weihu's hands could not help but tremble.
His blood boils when he thinks of what Xu Changsheng said to him that afternoon.
No one has ever done this before, right?
Now he, Wu Weihu, has to do this feat.
But is it really possible? Regardless of whether it is possible or not, he Xu Changsheng is really bold, and he dares to do such a thing! If Xu Changsheng dares to do it, then I, Wu Weihu, must also dare, and I have a father.
Well, at worst, if the sky falls, he will hold it up.
But Wu Weihu couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"Shh~" Xu Changsheng signaled Wu Weihu to calm down.
Sure enough, not long after, Wu Weihu heard the sound of footsteps. It was chaotic, and it was estimated that there was more than one person.
Xu Changsheng also panicked, but the cultivator in the afternoon was very embarrassed. He heard more than one footsteps. But the arrow was on the string and had to be fired.
The footsteps are getting closer.
"Bang, bang, bang"
Xu Changsheng could already hear his own heartbeat.
Right at the door.
Suddenly stopped.
The surroundings became increasingly silent, and Xu Changsheng slowly suppressed his breathing.
Xu Changsheng and Wu Weihu looked at each other under the moonlight, and at the same time tightened the wooden sticks in their hands.
He was so nervous that Wu Weihu even felt that the wooden stick was a bit slippery.
"Bang~"
The wooden door was kicked open.
Xu Changsheng and Xu Changsheng stood up at the same time, raised their wooden sticks and threw them at the door.
Sure enough, in addition to the man in the afternoon, there was also a young man, and it was he who was hit by the two of them.
As for the man behind Wu Weihu, he could vaguely see clearly through the moonlight. He was the man who wanted to steal his dagger before!
The man at the head received two strong blows on his shoulder. No matter how strong his body was, he could not help but feel pain, but he could still bear it.
He waved his hands forward, swung the wooden stick away, and crashed into the courtyard.
The two of them were no match for him. He felt a bull bump in and knocked the two of them to the ground. But this was not the time to think too much.
Xu Changsheng rolled to avoid the young man's kick. At this time, Zheng Lianning also walked in, glanced at Wu Weihu, and his eyes shrank.
"Zhang Duquan, you go deal with the other one, leave this one to me!"
The man named Zhang Duquan did not doubt that he was there, so he turned around and walked towards Wu Weihu. Xu Changsheng also took the opportunity to get up, raised the wooden stick horizontally, and swept towards Zheng Lianning with a gust of wind.
Zheng Lianning laughed evilly and waved his right hand to his ear, making a muffled sound. Although his arm also hurt, he still blocked it.
Before Xu Changsheng could retract the wooden stick, Zheng Lianning grabbed it with one hand and pulled. Xu Changsheng was dragged over.
Xu Changsheng took advantage of the situation and kicked him out. Zheng Lianning had no choice but to let go of the stick and step back, moving three feet back.
The wooden stick was already a burden, so Xu Changsheng threw it away.
On the other side, Wu Weihu kept retreating under Zhang Duquan's offensive. Immortals are immortals after all. Even if their spiritual power is lost, it is far from what a mortal can contend with. Even Wu Weihu can only be forced to defend, let alone Xu Changsheng.
Moreover, now that there are four people in this small courtyard, it is still a bit cramped.
Zheng Lianning looked at Xu Changsheng jokingly, like a cat catching a mouse.
It definitely doesn't matter whether it's hard or not, it can only be tricky.
Xu Changsheng put his hand deep into his arms, grabbed a handful of sand that had been placed in advance, and threw it forward.
Regardless of the outcome, he pushed hard with his feet and rushed out of the door. Otherwise, he would be caught sooner or later in this small courtyard. Only by going outside would he have a chance to make a comeback.
But Zheng Lianning had already expected this and allowed Xu Changsheng to rush out.
Sure enough, when Xu Changsheng had just rushed out of the courtyard, a figure appeared from the left, crossed his arms and hit Xu Changsheng hard.
Three!
In order to deal with Xu Changsheng, a mortal, a cultivator even invited two cultivators!
Although I had already been suspicious when I heard the messy footsteps before, it was too late now.
Xu Changsheng was knocked to the ground and flew up. He didn't stop until he hit Aunt He's courtyard wall. Xu Changsheng felt that his body was falling apart. He couldn't exert any strength. He tried several times and couldn't get up.
There was a cramping pain in his abdominal cavity, but the real pain was in his head. The throbbing pain in his soul made Xu Changsheng's face turn pale, and his whole body could not help but tremble in pain.
The loud noise caused by the fight made several nearby houses commotion, but they did not dare to open the door for fear of causing trouble.
Xu Changsheng could see the crowds of people on the wall of Gao Jian's house. Aunt He also heard the noise outside and hurriedly opened the door. With such a big movement at night, it must be that the immortal came to Xiao Changsheng in the afternoon.
When he opened the door, he saw a figure leaning against the wall of his house. Looking at that appearance, who could it be if it wasn't Xu Changsheng!
Aunt He was about to run over and help Xu Changsheng up, but Zheng Lianning would not let him have his way. He ran between the two of them and kicked Aunt He.
Xu Changsheng could only watch helplessly as Aunt He was kicked back into the hospital. The pain in his head even made him unable to speak.
When he got excited, the pain in his head couldn't help but intensify, coming one after another. Xu Changsheng was so painful that he could only press his head against the courtyard wall and grit his teeth.
The battle inside was over. Zhang Duquan came out swinging alone. Wu Weihu was probably not much better.
"Boy, aren't you very wild? You hit me with a slingshot?" Zheng Lianning said, stepping on Xu Changsheng's head and spinning him around a few times.
Xu Changsheng's head was sunk deeply into the mud, and his hair was also covered with mud.
Xu Changsheng, on the other hand, was completely unconscious, his mind went blank, and the pain that filled him made him forget everything.
Until Aunt He ran out with the sickle in her arms. When she saw the scene in front of her, she held back her tears and said word by word: "I can give you the sickle, please let him go."
Zheng Lianning stepped on Xu Changsheng under his feet, but turned around and smiled, with a gentle smile, like a handsome nobleman, "Isn't it better to have done this earlier? Why waste so much effort."
After saying that, he also lifted the foot that was stepping on Xu Changsheng's head and walked towards Aunt He.
He directly took the sickle from Aunt He's arms and stopped caring about Xu Changsheng. For him, it was enough to get the thing, and he didn't need to care about anything else.
The two cultivators who came with him also followed.
Suddenly remembering something, Zheng Lianning turned around and said, "I can't take things from you for free. Come on, this is money for you. Treat it as if it was bought by me."
As he spoke, a copper coin fell in front of Xu Changsheng, and he turned and left.
Xu Changsheng stared at the brand-new copper coin in front of him with a calm expression. A gap slowly opened in his heart, and there was an abyss underneath.
Then he raised his head and said with a smile: "Mom, I'm fine. I just failed to avenge you and caused so much trouble."
Aunt He cried and hugged Xu Changsheng and kept wiping the dirt from his head. While crying, she kept talking about silly boy, silly boy.
…
The moon was in the sky, and all the theatergoers had returned home, dreaming of the family's dream of making a fortune.
Xu Changsheng and Wu Weihu silently tidied up the messy yard. After tidying up, they simply lay down on it. The midsummer evening breeze was slightly cool, and there was no need to worry about the wind and cold.
"Xu Changsheng, are you okay?" Wu Weihu asked, looking at the stars.
Xu Changsheng shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "I'm fine, I just caused you to get beaten in vain, and I didn't get any benefits at all."
Wu Weihu made a sound, "What does this mean? When my father beat me, it was much heavier than this, and my skin is thick, so it only hurt for a short time at most."
"But I'm still quite embarrassed. I feel sorry for you."
Xu Changsheng said guiltily.
Wu Weihu put his head on his hands, turned his head and said seriously: "Xu Changsheng, I come to help you out of respect for your bloody nature. If someone else comes to call me, I will definitely not pay attention to him. If you keep talking,
Such kind words make me regret coming to help you."
"Okay, then I won't be polite." Xu Changsheng said with a smile.
Wu Weihu turned his head, looked at the vast moonlit sky, and laughed loudly, "That's right, a man should be more generous, and what the hell is he being stingy all day long?"
"..."
"Xu Changsheng, from now on, I think you can be considered half of my friend, and that guy Ah Qiao can be half of me at most. Taken together, I have just one friend. However, these friendships are all made by me, Wu Weihu.
, Hahaha." Wu Weihu patted Xu Changsheng on the shoulder and looked extremely heroic.
Xu Changsheng's mood was also affected. He pointed at the night sky and laughed, "Huzi, have you seen the brightest star? In the future, my name, Xu Changsheng, will be brighter than that star."
Why should cultivators be so high and mighty and ordinary people be like grass?
Why can cultivators soar in the sky and mortals should look up to them?
Why can cultivators take whatever they want and ordinary people should obey?
Why can they be unreasonable?
Is it because they have big fists?
