Chapter 97 (1/2)
The atmosphere in the hall was dreary and terrible. Nezha quietly raised his eyes and found that Li Jing's face was covered with clouds, so he didn't dare to look up again.
Not long after, a sergeant hurried into the hall.
”I inform you, my subordinates found that the Taoist priest went to the city yesterday and stayed in the South Post House at night.”
The sergeant said respectfully, ”according to the post officer, the Taoist priest said he would go out to visit friends after breakfast this morning, so he went out and hasn't returned yet.”
With that, the atmosphere in the hall became dull again.
”Master!”
Mrs. Li said softly, ”was the young Taoist priest really Nezha's disciple?”
”I don't see anyone. How do I know if it is?”
Li Jing then narrowed her eyes and said, ”but judging from the traces at the door, the young Taoist priest's cultivation has already had a certain heat, and he really uses the true power cultivated by the authentic Xuanmen skill...”
”So...”
Mrs. Li sighed when she heard that her speech was about to stop.
Li Jing's eyes flashed and answered, ”nine times out of ten it's Nezha's fellow disciple.”
”I don't know.”
Nezha murmured in a low voice.
”Rebel, dare to argue!”
Li Jing patted the table, pointed to Nezha and shouted, ”don't you know, didn't he tell you?”
Nezha said in a low voice, ”yes, but he told me a lot of senior brothers, martial uncles and martial brothers, which made me dizzy.”
”You...”
Li Jing said angrily, ”it's reasonable for you to hit the same door as soon as you meet?”
”Father, it's the child who suffers!”
Nezha shouted wrongfully and said, ”I thought he was a liar who came to cheat on food and drink, so I wanted to teach him a lesson. Who thought the universe could not hurt him.”
”Hum, that's what people want you to do. They don't want to do it with you.”
Li Jing hummed, ”otherwise your circle can be in the hands of your senior brother now. Believe it or not?”
”I don't want to be a younger martial brother. My master is his master's elder martial brother, so he should be my younger martial brother...” Nezha said.
However, he couldn't speak out halfway, because Li Jing's two eyes shot at him like a sharp sword.
”Somebody, get my whip.”
”Master, you...” Mrs. Li was surprised.
”This villain is so domineering at a young age. He dares to hurt people with a gun. Today I'll give you 20 lashes to remember.”
Li Jing said in a deep voice, ”this is a small punishment and a big commandment. If not, you don't know how much trouble you're going to make for me in the future.”
While talking, a sergeant had brought a whip.
Li Jing took the whip and walked towards Nezha step by step.
”Dad, no, Dad, no...”
Nezha's face finally changed. He was full of panic and said in a trembling voice, ”I know my mistake. I won't dare again, Dad.”
”Shut up!”
Li Jing shouted loudly and angrily said, ”if you dare to say one more word, you can add one more whip. I'll do what I say. If you don't believe it, just try.”
Hearing this, Nezha turned pale, but he closed his mouth and dared not speak again.
Li Jing came behind him and threw a whip. There were only heavy beating and children's crying in the hall.
After twenty lashes, Nezha's clothes behind him were dyed red with blood.
Although Hun Tian Ling is the most valuable body protector, wearing it as a belly pocket can only protect his chest and abdomen in front of him, but can't protect other parts of his body.
Mrs. Li held Nezha, who was pale and shaky, and burst into tears.
In the depths of Li Jing's eyes, there was a flash of shame.
He also knew that he was busy with military affairs these years and neglected to discipline Nezha, but what Nezha did today really startled him.
It may be that you dare to shoot people at a young age because you are not sensible or light, but if you don't give some lessons, you're afraid you'll kill and set fire when you grow up.
