C7 (2/2)
I saw Tiger shiver slightly, but he kept his head down, his expression indiscernible. But to my surprise, a moment later, Ah Hu slowly kneeled down.
”Ah Hu, what are you doing? Hurry and get up! ” I reached out my hand to pull Ah Hu up, but he didn't move. It was obvious that he didn't dare to get up.
”Hmph, newcomer, you too! I don't blame you for coming here today, but now that you know the rules, you should know what to do! ”
”Who are you? What right do you have to make me kneel?!” Men have gold under their knees. This is the reason given to me by my parents and mister.
”Brother Yu …” A'Hu lowered his head. His voice was trembling, but he still said, ”He was taken in personally by Elder Qiu Xi. You, I beg you, please let him go.”
”Ah Hu, quickly get up!” I took his hand and tried to pull him up, but Tiger was still kneeling on the floor, which made me angry.
”Humph!” ”You're just a mere outer court disciple, what qualifications do you have to ask for me, ah?” And you, ”I saw him looking at me, his eyes filled with something other than ferocity.
”You didn't even accept me as your disciple, so I'll let you be. I want to see just what kind of thing you are, what is so outstanding about you.”
”I …” Before I could say anything, the skinny, dark-skinned youth waved his hand and two people behind me approached me, grinning. I had just realized something when I took a punch on my nose. My head spun, I staggered a few steps, then took another punch in the face and fell to the ground, followed by another blow in the face. ”It's weird, I covered my head with my hands, and the punches and kicks that landed on my body not only made me feel stifled, it also didn't hurt too much. So, I must have been beaten up …” ”Brother Yu, I beg of you, stop hitting him. He, he doesn't know the rules. Besides, when elder Qiu Xi returned, he …” I felt a little dizzy, and could only hear Ah Hu's pleading voice.
”Shut up, what are you? Do you have the qualifications to beg me?” Then came the sound of punches and kicks.
”Fugui!” Tiger crawled over and wrapped his arms around me, helping me fend off most of the punches and kicks.
”Hey, you like to play hero, right? Come here and fight!”
I felt A'Hu being pulled over and the one who hit me became a person.
Hearing Ah Hu grind his teeth and grind his teeth, I shut my eyes tightly. A moment later, I said, ”Stop hitting me!” I gasped, making a sound. ”I kneel!”
Feeling the blows gradually stop, I slowly rose to my feet.
”Don't kneel, Fugui!” Ah Hu shouted out and his fists and kicks became even heavier.
This is humiliation, I will definitely return it a hundredfold! Definitely!
”Fugui!” I heard Tiger growl in a tearful voice. He's willing to take a beating for me, and I can give up my dignity for him.
”Humph, he deserves a beating!” ”Hahahaha …” Hearing the sound of their footsteps as they left, Fugui hurried to help me up.
”Fugui, it's fine now. How is it?” I shook my head and wiped the blood from my nose. Only then did I feel pain all over my body.
”I'm fine.” Looking at A Hu, whose face was bruised and filled with tears, my eyes suddenly felt sore, as if I had been wronged.
Both of us sat in the training field, watching the sunset dragging the red cloud. Both of us did not say anything, and the shadows behind us gradually lengthened and merged together … ” It's been two years. At the beginning, I was like you, not even kneeling before death. After that, I thought it through. My latent talent was not that great, so I could only become an outer sect disciple. I didn't have a friend. ”Hehe, he definitely doesn't know. Every time I kneel down to him, I would curse his entire family to their deaths in my heart. Just treat it as kneeling a bastard, it's no big deal …”
I listened to A Hu's words. It was easy to say, but the pain in the process was something no one knew about.
”What about you?” I turned my head to look at Ah Hu. ”They won't be able to find trouble with me. They will definitely vent their anger on you.”
”Me?” Ah Hu gave a bitter smile, ”My aptitude is not good enough, no one will care even if I am beaten to death.” It's fine, I have thick skin and I'm used to beating others. Just leave me alone and help me teach them a lesson in the future. ”
Looking at A'Hu's smile, I wiped the corner of my eyes.
”I'll kneel with you!”
Ah Hu looked at me in surprise, then shook his head, ”No, with a friend like you, I am already satisfied. Although I only met you yesterday, but it has been almost three years, and I have never had a heart to heart conversation with anyone. Ah, no one here has ever listened to me, other than you, everyone else is competing.
”You are my friend, you will always be!”
”No!” I shook my head and smiled as I looked at the A'Hu, who was feeling a little bitter. ”You're my brother. You'll always be one!”
”My entire life...”
