The friend was heartbroken and said, “You beast! You beast! All the money I saved with great effort over the years was taken away by you!”
The neck first felt smooth and hot, then it became wet and itchy, obviously Wei Xi had started to nibble on it. Shuo Zong raised his hand and touched it, it was all wet and sticky with saliva and vegetable oil, his fingertips trembled, and he took a chicken leg from the table and offered it to Wei Xi.
Wei Xi was obviously not satisfied, but the chicken leg was really delicious, so after thinking about it, he decided to hold it and start eating it.
“Stop howling.” Shuo Zong interrupted his friend’s accusation impatiently, “You talk as if you are not a beast.”
“Hey you’re attacking me personally!”
At this moment, the boy with blood all over his head in the crowd finally seemed unable to bear the heavy blow, and he fell down with his eyes rolled back.
The man who was grumbling suddenly changed his expression, and immediately shut up and went forward to check. He touched Xing Kai’s neck and finally relaxed his expression: “It’s okay. He just fainted.”
Then he smiled and asked the awake young people: “Who can tell uncle what’s going on?”
Wei Xi over there finished gnawing on the meat of the chicken leg, chewed the bones into pieces and swallowed them. When the two survivors heard the sound, they were so frightened that they seemed to faint immediately. They stammered for a long time before they explained what happened clearly.
The gist was that Wei Xi thought Xing Kai, who stepped forward to stop him, had gone back on his word after inviting him to eat, so he punched and kicked him and locked him in the room to watch him eat and drink. This operation was so shameless that there was nothing to say.
At the beginning, Xing Kai was still clamoring for everyone to come together to get back at him, but after everyone was beaten, they all became quiet. Apart from hugging each other and crying, they couldn’t think of any other good ideas for a while.
“This is too much—” the man accused, pointing at his head with snot all over his face. “He hit me like this, bang bang bang, it hurts so much, my head is still buzzing. I want to call the police, this is intentional injury!”
He thought the two people who suddenly appeared were here to help, but after he finished crying, the handsome guy who looked serious and solemn frowned impatiently: “Xia Shouren, tell him to shut up.”
The man who called himself uncle and smiled warmly stood up with curved eyebrows and said in a cold tone that did not match his face: “How pitiful, your face is swollen. It’s a pity that you didn’t tell me the purpose of holding this Hongmen Banquet. You look stingy and cowardly, but you are an accomplice to the tiger. You are always doing small evils, so it’s only right that you lose money and have bad luck.”
After saying that, he raised his hand and struck twice accurately and fiercely, and the sobbing sounds that had been coming from the room immediately disappeared.
After Xia Shouren knocked the two men unconscious, he couldn’t help but sigh in admiration: “How come kids these days are so smart? They dare to scheme against anyone.”
Shuo Zong ignored him. After looking around the room, he smashed two hidden surveillance cameras, pushed the door open and went out for a while. When he came back, he lifted Wei Xi’s collar and said, “Let’s go.”
Wei Xi refused and wanted to fight immediately. Shuo Zong was hit by two punches from him. With a sullen face, he picked up the few bottles of Moutai left in the room. Wei Xi then grabbed the last roasted suckling pig on the table and let him take him away obediently.
He was drunk, but he didn’t forget to eat. He ate all the packed wine and meat in a short while. He looked around but didn’t see any food, so he set his eyes on Shuo Zong and started nibbling on his fingers. Shuo Zong couldn’t stand it anymore, so he raised his hand and slapped him on the head. Wei Xi was about to get angry, but suddenly there was a finger beside his mouth. He immediately put it in his mouth and stopped talking. He glanced to the side secretly and took several sips of Yang Qi cunningly.
Xia Shouren approached with surprise, poked his cheek with his hand, and asked, “How can this be a ferocious beast? It’s clearly a little kid. Is it really him?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Xi seemed to smell the scent on his body. He wrinkled his nose and took two puffs. As if very satisfied, he suddenly spat out Shuo Zong’s finger and bit it.
This one also had yang energy!
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!” Xia Shouren screamed heartbreakingly, “It’s him, it’s him! It still hurts just as much!!”
Shuo Zong stared coldly at his finger that was bitten between Wei Xi’s teeth: “Five hundred thousand.”
“Beast!” Xia Shouren quickly gave in. “Here you go, here you go, here you go. My fu**ing fingers are going to break, dammit!!”
Shuo Zong finally rescued him from the fire pit. Xia Shouren hugged his almost broken thumb and cried, “The beast is really freaking ferocious. It hasn’t changed at all after so many years. Damn it, how come you don’t feel any pain at all? The furry ones can’t compare to the ones with scales…”
Shuo Zong suddenly interrupted him: “I want to go into seclusion.”
“Why are you going into isolation for no reason…” Xia Shouren said halfway when he suddenly realized, “Ah! You want to…”
Shuo Zong lowered his head and continued to stare at Wei Xi who was sucking his fingers, with a tacit attitude of vigilance: “Someone has to keep an eye on him.”
“Can you hold on?” Xia Shouren looked at him with some concern, and his expression suddenly became reliable. “Don’t forget the time when the Heavenly Dao collapsed… It’s been more than a hundred years, and your injuries haven’t healed yet. If my soul wasn’t incomplete, I might be able to help you. Now the cave is gone, and I don’t know where to find those natural treasures.”
As he spoke, his tone became very sad. Unexpectedly, Shuo Zong interrupted the beautiful and sad monologue with one sentence: “Have you given me the 500,000?”
“…” Xia Shouren took out his cell phone in frustration, “Beast!”
He glanced indignantly at the scene where Shuo Zong allowed Wei Xi to absorb his Yang Qi: “He only knows how to ask me for money. He absorbed your Yang Qi, so why didn’t you ask him for it? You used to fight when you met each other, but today I didn’t see you hitting him. I heard people say that they saw you in his cave on the day when the sky collapsed. Why did you run to find him when you were so injured? I know, you two must have some private transaction that I don’t know about…”
Shuo Zong turned a deaf ear to him, lowered his head to take the money, and saw the Wei family villa from the window, then he signaled him in a deep voice: “Shut up.”
After he finished speaking, Xia Shouren also felt something was wrong. He stopped the car and looked quietly at the strange villa in front of him: “…Is there something wrong?”
Shuo Zong looked solemn. It was still early, and all the neighborhoods they had seen along the way were brightly lit, except for the Wei family, where every room was dark, with only a small window in the corner showing light, and the curtains and doors were all tightly closed, as if they were desperately trying to hide some truth that they didn’t want others to know.
He and Xia Shouren looked at each other, and at the same time their eyes fell on Wei Xi who was chewing his fingers with relish. The same guess made them stand up instantly and jump into the Wei family’s yard.
The owner of this family and his servants together had lost more than ten lives! If the news got out, the outside world would definitely be in turmoil!
While Shuo Zong was thinking of a countermeasure quickly, he kicked open the door of the Wei family and fell into surprise again: “….”
In the corner of the Wei family’s living room, the TV and floor lamp were on, and sure enough, there were large pieces of dead body remaining… those of crayfish.
The aroma of mashed garlic filled the air. A dozen people gathered around the coffee table, carrying takeaway lunch boxes and looking hungry, which made people almost doubt that they had entered a construction site. They looked towards the gate and instantly saw Wei Xi in Shuo Zong’s hand. Their faces suddenly changed.
Wei Xi, who was held in Shuo Zong’s hand, smelled something, wrinkled his nose, cheered, broke free from Shuo Zong’s grip on his collar, and rushed towards them.
There was chaos at the scene, and someone asked, “Why did he come back so early?”
Someone cursed: “Ass**le! Give me back my lunch box! You were still drinking?! How could I give birth to such a wicked child like you!”
Someone sobbed loudly: “Young Master, Young Master, the crayfish’s head must be removed, how could you chew it whole…”
Someone complained coldly: “Damn, Xing Kai and those rubbish.”
Only a dog was whining happily nearby.
Amid the chaotic quarrel, no one had time to pay attention to the two people standing at the door. Shuo Zong was silent for a long time in the night, and while Xia Shouren was in a trance, he calmly closed the door again.
