Chapter 383.2: The Harvest After Fis.h.i.+ng
He Zhen Wei nearly vomited blood in anger, “Already told you, Jin Qinw.a.n.g isn’t good to provoke. Able to let you off once, but there may not be a second time. You offering yourself up, even if you die, no one would be able to demand justice for you either.”
“I at most just blocked the horse carriage a bit, but didn’t do anything else. Would Jin Qinw.a.n.g be that unreasonable and directly ask for my life?” He s.h.i.+ Hai mumbled to himself, feeling wronged.
He Zhen Wei laughed in anger, “Reason? This word is actually able to come out from your mouth?”
Little tyrant He had nothing to say. Alright, he admit, back at the border town, the most unreasonable one was precisely him. “Father, based on what I’ve seen, Jin Qinw.a.n.g simply isn’t that notorious as you all say. With him being that incredible, whoever he finds unpleasant to the eyes, it’s just directly beating up. Losing half of one’s life, who would still dare to give him trouble? It’s not like he’s a three year old child, always tormenting others for no reason. That’s why, living Enma and whatnot, definitely just unfounded rumors spreading. We as soldiers, ought to be honest and sensible, seeking truth from the facts. Don’t be like those civil officials, just knowing to scheme and argue all day long. These words were all taught by you, yet now, towards Jin Qinw.a.n.g, you’re this prejudice…………..”
He Zhen Wei probably never thought that there would be a day where this b.a.s.t.a.r.d would actually talk reason with him, even using his own words to block him. Also, that line, ‘won’t torment others for no reason’, didn’t you specialize in doing this kind of thing? To repeatedly say similar words, are you not embarra.s.sed? Huh?
General He just felt as if his head would explode. But, truthfully speaking, he really had no way of dealing with this b.a.s.t.a.r.d. Since this b.a.s.t.a.r.d believed that Jin Qinw.a.n.g was good, then no matter what you do, you won’t be able to change his mind.
Perhaps, in certain people’s eyes, good looks was just justice. And in He s.h.i.+ Hai’s eyes, that definitely was just———-martial arts was justice.
“In any case, you’re not allowed to go look for Jin Qinw.a.n.g again. Else, this old man will lock you in an iron cage.”
An iron cage that can contain a tiger probably was the only thing that can lock up He s.h.i.+ Hai. Moreover, the iron bars won’t work if too thin, needing to specifically forge.
He s.h.i.+ Hai’s eyeb.a.l.l.s spun, but didn’t continue retorting his old man.
However, He Zhen Wei was a hundred percent certain that this b.a.s.t.a.r.d definitely didn’t give up on the idea. Don’t know what kind of trouble he will stir up later. On normal days, he was already a fool. That bit of cleverness was all used on playing tricks on them. The people of the He family, which one wasn’t upright and honorable, being strict with oneself, yet how come just produced such an outlier? If not for that face looking exactly like his own, he would even start to suspect whether or not that loyal and dependable wife of his had given him a green hat to wear.
Alright, in reality, Madam He suspected that it was He Zhen Wei bringing back an outer mistress’s son, switching with her own son. That’s why, Madam He also didn’t believe that she gave birth to such a son. Of course, this was just a joke.
However, whenever Madam He beat this son, she was even more ruthless than General He. For others, if getting beat by their father, they can still look for their mother’s protection. As for He s.h.i.+ Hai, if he dares to go look for his mother, it would definitely turn into the husband and wife joining hands in beating him, not holding back in the slightest.
General He felt, for the sake of not letting it grow out of hand in the end, it was still best to let Le Cheng Emperor know ahead of time.
Originally, in these two days, the He family was going to hold a banquet. The invitations had already been sent out, yet unexpectedly, encountered the Empress falling ill. Although unlike the death of a royalty, needing to abstain from various banquets and entertainment, but for better or worse, one still needs to give a bit of face. Thus, the date was pushed back, and precisely because it was pushed back, it lead to little tyrant He sneaking out.
Afterwards, the next day, the servant girl serving He s.h.i.+ Hai discovered that their young master’s bedroom door didn’t open no matter how they called for him.
One has to know, little tyrant He can have any bad habit, but only ‘dawdling in bed’ alone, he didn’t have. It was already past time, yet still didn’t see the person. This was just too strange.
Although this servant girl was also brought back from the border town, unlike the servant girls of ordinary families that ‘delicate and weak’, she still didn’t dare to go kick down the young master’s door.
Thus, she hastily ran off to report.
He Zhen Wei and his madam came hand in hand. The two of them were both wearing martial arts attire. In a military family, the morning exercise was an essential task.
The General Madam first knocked on the door. There wasn’t the slightest movement. Afterwards, her willow brows tightened, lifting her leg and just having the door kicked open. That movement was quite swift, the destructive power also formidable. It can be seen, she perhaps frequently did this kind of thing.
Everyone entered the room. However, it turned out that the bed was neat and tidy, but not a soul was seen. Moreover, it was completely cold. It seems the person has been away from the bed for quite some time already. The bedroom door was locked from the inside, so that can only mean that he went out through the window. It’s not that little tyrant He has never done this kind of thing before. Upon examining, sure enough, one of the windows appeared to be shut tightly, but in reality, it wasn’t fastened. Afterwards, they discovered that little tyrant He’s personal savings were also gone. As such, how could they not know what was going on.
The General Madam ruthlessly shot a glare at General He, “Have that b.a.s.t.a.r.d dragged back first, then sort you out later.” She directly stepped out of the room, “Someone come, send a few people to Jin Qinw.a.n.g Manor’s vicinity to stand guard. As soon as they see He s.h.i.+ Hai, that b.a.s.t.a.r.d thing, directly have him tied up for me. If he dares to resist, as long as it’s leaving one breath, doesn’t matter if beaten crippled.”
General He who was behind her rubbed his nose. For that b.a.s.t.a.r.d to run away from home, nine times out of ten, it was because he said that he was going to lock him in an iron cage, but who knew that this b.a.s.t.a.r.d, for the sake of achieving his goal, directly made this move, making him get blamed by his own madam. He felt that he was very innocent, alright!? Just, this ‘doesn’t matter if beaten crippled’, won’t it be a bit too ruthless?
He s.h.i.+ Hai didn’t have much money on him, but it wasn’t considered little either. It was more than enough for him to fend for himself outside for a period of time. And don’t bother worrying whether or not he’ll be able to exchange blows with Jin Qinw.a.n.g in this period of time. If there’s no opportunity, then he’ll just have to create an opportunity. If he ends up using up all the money on him, yet still haven’t reached his goal………he’ll just worry about it when time comes.
As for him being even more screwed once he returns home, for the time being, he didn’t want to think about it. In any case, every time he recalled how ruthless his own mother was, his teeth all can’t help but clatter.
He knew that with him running away from home, his father and mother will definitely send people to come catch him. This kind of game of tag, he had already played before when he was a few years old. Moreover, it was like being naturally born with maxed out skill level in this area, completely an expert in this game.
In a short amount of time, the section of land surrounding Jin Qinw.a.n.g Manor already got familiarized by him. That’s why, seeing his own older brother personally bringing people to come catch him, the little tyrant that was squatting on a certain wall disdainfully let out two hmph, continuing to gnaw on the steamed bun in hand.
Little tyrant He was very confident. Unless it was him getting completely surrounded by enough people in a wide area, otherwise, don’t even thinking about catching him easily.
In certain aspects, little tyrant He was definitely blessed by the heavens. In terms of martial arts, he was able to master with little guidance, even having a strong physique and endless stamina. His physical strength was also formidable. To say he was like a beast all wasn’t enough to describe. Others, on the battlefield, would all feel exhausted at some point in time, but for him, being on the battlefield, that was just like playing around.
All in all, in the battles he partic.i.p.ated in at the northeastern border, there wasn’t a single time that made him show weariness. When others were gasping for breath, their hands shaking, he was like having just warmed up, feeling excited. That’s why, although a rascal, for those soldiers, there really weren’t any that hated him.
Where was the limit of little tyrant He’s stamina? His family didn’t know, the Northeastern Army didn’t know, even he himself didn’t know. After all, the limit under normal circ.u.mstances all can’t be called the extreme limit. The kind that was pressure on top of pressure, coming through after struggling on the brink of death, that was the true limit.
If there was anyone in this world that knew, then it was probably just Li Hong Yuan.
In the past life, it was precisely this winter when the He family met with the battle that extinguished their entire family. He s.h.i.+ Hai battled alone for an entire seven days. Aside from when searching for food, if not chasing after the enemy, then it was just killing the enemy, simply not shutting his eyes once. In the end, when they found him, he already couldn’t be called human. However, the after effects were also very severe.
As for how long this peak state can be maintained, Li Hong Yuan later personally witnessed. Three four days all weren’t a problem.
Really can no longer be called human.
