Chapter 207 Let Me Try Tha (2/2)
Zhang He and Ju Shou sent them off at the north gate. Shangdang Army did not move along with Jinyang force as they had to remain in Shangdang to appease the citizens and maintain the order in the city.
Cleaning the aftermath of a battle was hard work.
Still, both of them gazed at the departing army in solemn even though they did not like Lu Bu. As servants of the same lord, they prayed for Jinyang Army's victory.
The struggle at Shangdang was over, but the battle of Jinyang was about to begin.
…
South of Jinyang City, forty kilometers north of Nie County.
Friday in Xiao Wu's outer appearance was digging trenches along with Julu soldiers, who could not stop sneaking glances at her. Although she wore customized iron armor for female, her busty body still attracted everyone's attention.
Fortunately, all of them knew about her status as Tong's concubine, so no one was stupid enough to lay a hand on her. Secondly and most importantly, they knew about one terrifying secret of Xiao Wu that stopped them from the silly thought.
At the moment, Friday was lifting a large boulder at the size of a modern bike with her left hand. She did not hold it above her shoulder or carry it behind her back.
She lifted it with her finger grip like a bowling ball.
”Friday, I need a few more over here,” Shouted Hua Shi who was arranging the rolling boulder traps.
”OKAY, CATCH!”
Friday hurled the stone toward Hua Shi's direction.
*BOOM*
It landed precisely on the spot where Hua Shi wanted to place the stone right in front of her.
However …
”YOU STUPID BITCH! DON'T YOU FOOKING TOSS THE STONE!!”
”You're welcome!”
”I DID NOT THANK YOU!”
”I meant, sorry. I missed!”
”DAFUQ DO YOU MEAN YOU MISSED!? IT LANDED LIKE 2CM AWAY FROM MY BOOBS! I CAN EVEN FEEL THE WIND HITTING MY FACE!”
”I was aiming at the spider on your chest!”
Hua Shi looked down. There was indeed a baby forest spider on her cloth. Strangely, it seemed to tremble in fear.
As usual, the two mental wives of Tong continued playing dangerous pranks on each other on a daily basis. Usually, it was Hua Shi who bullied Friday in the little Dong Bai body at home. However today, Friday had the upper hand as she was in her adult form, so she paid back her debt with interests.
Although the pranks were always risky and deadly in ordinary people's eyes, to them who literally had been to Hell, a near-death experience was nothing but a fart with an extra golden nugget.
The two psychopaths continued working ”peacefully” as they were finding an opportunity to get back on the other.
Meanwhile, Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu kept their distance from the women as they contributed to the ambush preparation.
”Do you think Zou Shi will turn into one of them?” Zhang Ji asked his nephew.
Zhang Xiu shook his head, ”Give up, uncle. She has a similar aura as theirs, and she hangs out with these girls. It's a matter of time when she will turn into one of them.”
Tears welled in Zhang Ji's eyes as he gave up to his fate. He remembered how scary Zou Shi was when she was angry or when she demanded something from him.
”I wish I'm single for life.” Cried Zhang Ji.
…
October 26th, 7 PM.
In the restricted tent where Hua Shi and Friday rested together, Hua Shi sat cross legs and meditated as Friday instructed. Friday was teaching Hua Shi a method to gain demonic wings.
Since Friday knew that Tong had infected Hua Shi with his semen and blood, she would likely to turn into a demon like Tong soon. In preparation for such event, Friday imparted her knowledge to Hua Shi to prevent her from losing control to her [Sins]. She had begun teaching Hua Shi after Tong left for Ye City as they had nothing to do at night.
”You're sure I can grow wings? Why am I not feeling anything?” Asked Hua Shi.
”It normally takes years to get the first pair. Besides, you've only been infected for a year. It usually takes 20 years to get your first wing.” Friday gave her instruction while she was also meditating alongside with Hua Shi.
”But didn't Tong get his wings this year? He is only 17 if I remember correctly.”
”I'm surprised, too. I think somebody or an otherworlder had stimulated his [Sins] to the point that all of them awakened. It's fortunate that he didn't go berserk.”
”Berserk?”
”Our [Sins] are our heart devils. Everybody is born with at least seven or eight of them. Once our demon blood matured, they will appear and attempt to take control of our body and soul. When we lose control of our body, that's when we go berserk. Imagine a lunatic taking over your body and use it as he sees fit.”
Hua Shi's body trembled as she was afraid of losing her body to an unknown being. As she simulated the scenario where she lost control of her body, she recalled the event when Tong acted weird.
”I think he went berserk. There was a day that he looked into my eyes and my consciousness blurred. By the times I woke up again, he has already inseminated me to the point that my stomach bloated.”
Friday squinted her eyes. If it were the usual time, she might have thought that Hua Shi was bragging. However, the topic of the conversation was related to Tong's wellbeing. She could not ignore it or treat it as a joke.
”What happened to him that day?”
Hua Shi laughed, ”He summoned me to his bedroom while he was sitting on the bed and looking at his crack. I thought he was addicted to sex, but he flashed his red eyes at me and boom! My mind went blank.”
Friday also laughed, ”Ah, that's probably [Lust]. You're lucky that it was his [Lust] and not [Wrath] or [Gluttony]. Or else, you would have been dead.”
”But hasn't he awakened [Lust] first? I thought it was his strong trait.”
”There's another trick I haven't told you yet. There's a shortcut to tame our [Sins], but we'll have to allow them to take over our body first. Once we regain our sense, the [Sins] that has attempted to take our body will be weakened to the point that it's so easy to tame.”
”Hey! Why haven't you told me this before!? I would have used that method instead of sitting all day doing nothing.”
”Listen, hoe! I literally turned into a monster during the berserk period! I even wasted over a million year to get my wings this way.”
”But Tong regained his sense in a night.”
”That's ... odd. But hey, you and Tong are different. Do you really want to gamble?”
Hua Shi smirked and looked at her stomach, ”After this child grows up a bit, let me try that.”
