Chapter 8 Sleepless Night
"Brother Xia, be careful." When Meng Yu looked at A Si and Xiao San bring the straw rope from the ground, he was already scared. The official Zhang on the ground had already shown a vicious smile. This was dug by him with his own hands. It is hard to imagine that such a young child would be so tricky.
Seeing that the grass rope was about to tie down the calves of General Xia, the old man who had been watching the gorgeous clothes 100 meters away frowned, but he did not intend to save him. Maybe it was because the distance was too far away and it was too late to take action, or maybe he wanted to see how much General Xia was.
At the moment when Jiang Xia was about to trip over, Jiang Xia suddenly jumped, then stepped on it fiercely and pressed down the straw rope heavily. A Si and Xiao San were caught off guard. They sterned forward and immediately fell down and said, "The dog eats shit."
And the stones prepared before are almost thrown away, and there is no bargaining chip for victory in Zhang Daguan and others. Xia's gray pupils slowly "sweep" the crowd, and their tender and lovely faces turned red.
"You scumbags who don't keep your word, I'm going to kill you today." After saying that, General Xia rushed to the nearest mistress. The latter was scared and quickly climbed away, but General Xia was really angry. If he didn't give him a chance to escape, he rushed up with a beating.
"Ah, ah, help!"
Xiao San is actually two or three years older than Xia, and his height and strength are higher than the other party, but it is unbelievable that every time he smashes Xia's little fist, Xiao San will shout in pain and doesn't look like pretending at all.
Everyone panicked. Is this still the general Xia who was surrounded by himself and others a month ago? Especially Zhang Daguan, the broken arm was swollen like a steamed bun. He was a first-class martial artist. He used all his strength before, but he not only relied on the strength of his body to catch the opponent's attack, but at the same time, a dark force gushed out of his body, which broke Zhang Daguan's arm.
"Is he a second-class warrior?" Zhang Daguan was shocked at first, and then shook his head fiercely, "It's impossible, it's impossible. He must have used other methods."
In a blink of an eye, the mistress was beaten by Xia with a blue nose and a swollen face, and she cried bitterly. Several other big children had given birth to retreat and turned around to run away.
"All of them, stop. If anyone dares to move, I will break his leg today." Jiang Xia kicked the mistress away and stared at everyone angrily. In the eyes of adults, the child was quite cute, but in the eyes of Zhang Daguan and others, it was undoubtedly horrible.
"Blind and blind, no, no, no, General Xia, spare your life! For the sake of our common village. Several timid people have knelt down and begged for mercy.
Zhang Daguan gritted his teeth and snorted coldly, "Bad blind man, if you hurt me, my father will not let you go."
"How dare you mention your father, you don't keep your word." Jiang Xia stretched out her little finger to the other party and said with great dissatisfaction, "How did we make an agreement a month ago? I lied so much for your agreement. My mother almost didn't want me. You're fine. If you don't win, I'll throw stones. Are you still a man?"
"You." No matter how stubborn Zhang is, he is still a child. When General Xia said this, his face turned red and white, and his voice was much weaker. "So what do you want?"
"Well, as long as you abide by the agreement and don't bully Meng Yu in the future, I will let you go."
Everyone, look at me, I'll look at you. Zhang Daguan squeezed his lips tightly, and then nodded hard, "Okay, it's a deal."
Jing Xia blinked her eyes, "You can't speak this time, right?"
"It must be counted." Zhang Daguan has lost his temper. Even if he doesn't count, what can he do? So many people can't beat Zhang Xia. Who dares to bully two people in the future?
He pretended to be satisfied and pretended that Xie Xuan disciplined himself, "Okay! Let's not do it again." After saying that, he walked to Meng Yu with a surprised face and took the other party's little hand, "Let's go back!"
"Hmm." Meng Yu nodded obediently; the two of them left hand in the direction of coming hand in hand. Zhang Daguan and others who stayed in place were relieved, and a timid person was even more scared to pee his pants.
The old man in the gorgeous clothes in the distance slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and the shock on his slightly wrinkled face had not yet dissipated. "Okay, it's wonderful. This boy is very talented and talented."
Then the old man's figure moved, and the next moment, the place was already empty.
===.
After the two children returned home happily, they did not mention the matter to Xiangyan. There was nothing else on Xia except some soil stained by the medicine. But what should come will come after all. Just as Zhang Xia and his mother were waiting for Xie Xuan to go home for dinner, the village head Zhang Dawang came to Xingshi with his son Zhang Daguan and a group of neighbors in the countryside to ask for guilt.
"Xie Xuan, ask your son to come out." Zhang Wangsheng's small mouse eyes, garlic nose, and then shouted angrily outside the house.
Jian Yan hurried out to go out to check. After seeing that it was the village head Zhang Dawang, he asked doubtfully, "Village head, what happened? Xie Xuan hasn't come back from hunting yet.
"Well, you are a loving mother. How do you see how your son beat my son?" King Zhang pulled the timid Zhang Daguan behind him to the front and rolled open his sleeves. His blue and purple arms were as swollen as steamed buns.
"Hang!" The onlookers all took a cold breath, and then turned their angry eyes to the general summer behind the face.
He changed his pretty face and frowned, "Village head, you're wrong! How can our Xia'er hurt your official?
"Well, who's not the one in your family?" Zhang Dawang's angry garlic nose was expanded, and he pulled out Xiao San from the crowd behind him. "Look, this Xiao San'er is also a good thing for your family to do. You, you, I kindly keep you in the village. I didn't expect you to discipline your child like this and let him beat my son like this."
Jian Yanmei's eyes were moved with a trace of anger, and then leaned over to look at Jianxia and said softly, "Xia'er, tell your mother, did you do this? If not, my mother will definitely not let them slander you.
"Mom." Jiang Xia called softly and lowered his little face.
"Xiaer, don't be afraid. Tell your mother, have they been beaten like this by you?" Jiang Yan didn't believe that his son would do such a thing at all, and he didn't have the strength to do such a thing.
"Mom, I beat them." Xia answered in a low voice.
"Listen, you listen." King Zhang's mouse eyes stared directly wide, and his saliva flew in the air. "He admitted it. What else do you have to say? Let's see what your child looks like? He was born blind and likes to do bad things. He is simply a scum.
The neighbors around him also whispered, pointing at Xia, and even scolded him.
"Bang!" The crisp slap suddenly made everyone close their mouths, and half of Jinxia's little face swelled up, shaking all over, and tears swelled in his eyes. How does your mother usually teach you? Why do you fight with others? Don't you want to recognize me as your mother? Go and apologize to them."
Xia's gray pupils were also filled with tears of grievance, but the stubborn surname Ge stood still and said, "I'm not wrong. I don't want to apologize."
"Go and apologize to them." Jiang Yan's tone was tough. In fact, she was more sad than anyone else in her heart. She was afraid that her child would become a bad guy and scum in the mouth of the villagers.
Xia Qiang held back his tears and said firmly, "I'm not wrong. I don't want to apologize."
Zhang Dawang and others cast disgusted and dissatisfied eyes one by one, and his face blushed angrily, and his red lips bit a few words heavily, "Okay, okay, you don't apologize, do you?" If you don't apologize, don't recognize me as a mother.
"Mom." Jiang Xia was anxious and called anxiously. He was unmoved and moved his face away.
"Yan'er, Xia'er, what's wrong?" The familiar voice came from afar, and Xie Xuan hurried over with two hares in his hand.
Zhang Dawang's mouse's eyes lit up and immediately changed into a difficult look, "Oh, Xiao Xuan! You're finally here. Don't you know how your family's general Xia beat my son's official and Xiao San'er? Look at this?"
Xie Xuan's face changed. First, he looked at the timid Xiao San and Zhang Daguan, then went to the mother and son of General Yan and asked in a low voice, "Xiaer, did you do these?"
"Yes, Dad." Jiang Xia's voice was as small as a mosquito, which had made her mother angry and did not dare to anger Xie Xuan again.
The light in Xie Xuan's eyes was fleeting, and then he pretended to be angry and said, "It's outrageous. How can you do such a heavy hand? Why don't you apologize quickly?"
"Dad." Jiang Xia's face was tense, he hesitated and struggled in his heart, and finally replied in a low voice, "I'm right. Don't apologize."
The embarrassment on King Zhang's face turned into a little anger, "Xiao Xuan! Look, I have a good intention to keep you here, but your son hurt my son for no reason. What's wrong with me?
The villagers scolded in unison as if they had rehearsed in advance, and Xie Xuan couldn't help frowning.
"It's none of Brother Xia's business." A crisp female voice suddenly came out, and then Meng Yu cried and ran out to block in front of General Xia. "Aunt General Yan, Uncle Xie Xuan, they bullied Brother General Xia first. A month ago, they injured Brother General Xia, and said that they would fight again today. If they couldn't beat it, they would throw a stone and tie it with a rope. It's all theirs. Yes, Brother Xia just hit them.
She shocked Yan Jiao's body and looked back at the little girl with tears on her face. Although Meng Yu was brainless, the adults present were able to make things coherent.
"Aunt General Yan, don't beat Brother General Xia. No, it's none of his business." Meng Yu choked, and his little face cried, which made people extremely distressed.
King Zhang's face suddenly became gloomy. In fact, he had known the inside story of the matter for a long time. Relying on the identity of the village head, he was not afraid of Xie Xuan's family. Now his neighbors are all there, and the truth has been exposed by a little girl, and there is nothing to say.
Xie Xuan sighed deeply, and then walked to King Zhang with a smile on his face and said, "Village head, it's normal for this child's family to fight. My Xia Er did it seriously. I'm really sorry for hurt the official. These are the two harees I hit today. One for you, and one for the other for the third family. I'm a little sorry."
"Ah, so embarrassing?" King Zhang's little eyes narrowed into a slit, and he withdrew his outstretched hand.
"Take it! Take it! Village head, the child is disobedient. I will be well educated in the future. Forget it!" Xie Xuan directly stuffed the two hare into each other's hands.
King Zhang sighed softly and pretended to be upright. "Well, since you have apologized on behalf of your son, we are not unreasonable people. Forget it."
Xie Xuan quickly smiled and said, "Ha ha, thank you very much, village head."
"Well, Xiaoxuan! Now that the misunderstanding has been solved, let's leave first. King Zhang raised his eyebrows and took the two rabbits. He was so happy that his son was injured.
"Village head, walk slowly, walk slowly." Xie Xuan nodded with a smile. The neighbors in the village also dispersed, and in a blink of an eye, only the three of them were left in the same place, the three of them and Meng Yu, who stopped crying.
"Brother Xia, does it hurt you?" Meng Yu blinked her big wet eyes, and her white jade-like little hands gently touched Xia Gao's swollen little face.
"Hang!" Xia frowned and quickly turned his head away. Meng Yu was so scared that he quickly withdrew his hand, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Jing Xia shook her head with a smile, "It's okay, I don't hurt."
Seeing this, Xie Xuan next tocouldn't help looking at his wife, "Yan'er, you're too heavy. Xia'er is still a child?"
"Dad, it's none of my mother's business." Before he could speak to him, Xia took the lead, "Mom, Dad, it's my fault. I shouldn't fight with them. Mom, please don't be angry."
Jiang Yan couldn't help it any more. Soybean-like tears dripping down, he bent down and hugged him tightly. "I'm sorry, it's not my mother, it's my mother's not good."
Xie Xuan looked at his wife and children, and a trace of weakness rose in his heart. Even in this remote place, he could not let them live a peaceful life. Self-reproach and pressure filled the man's heart.
===.
In the evening, the family sat together and chatted after dinner. Xie Xuan deliberately did not go out to hunt this afternoon. Perhaps the noon thing still fell in the hearts of the three people. The three of them didn't say much in the afternoon.
"Xia'er, does your face still hurt?" Jiang Yan asked with concern.
"It doesn't hurt anymore." Jiang Xia shook his head.
Xie Xuan's eyes lit up and asked what he wanted in his heart, "Xia'er, why did you beat Zhang Daguan like that?"
"I just hit him with a mountain punch. I didn't expect to break his hand. Xia answered in a low voice.
"Oh, there's no reason! With your strength, you can draw with him at most. Xie Xuan was puzzled, and then picked up General Xia and pressed his broad palms tightly on the other party's neck.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?"
"Shh!" Xie Xuan motioned him not to speak and continued to explore the situation in Jiang Xia's body. After a few breaths, a great joy gloomed on Xie Xuan's face, "Hahahaha, Xia'er, there is force in your body. No wonder, no wonder you can beat them. It turned out to be caused by the dark strength of Kaishan Fist."
He was confused about what Xia said, and then he was also happy, "Do you mean that I'm a second-class warrior now?"
"Yes, yes, yes, haha, it's a second-class warrior." Xie Xuan looked extremely excited, and the pretty face next to her became more and more gloomy. She hadn't said a word since just now. Xie Xuan finally felt his wife's strangeness and quickly stopped laughing, "Hey, hey hey, Yan Er, listen to me, I don't want to see Xia Er being bullied!"
Yan sighed gently, "Forget it, in fact, I have known about you for a long time. Xia'er, go back to the house and have a rest first!" I have something else to say to your father.
"Oh, I see." Jiang Xia nodded and went back to his room alone.
The next atmosphere was a little strange. Xie Xuan smiled flatteringly, "Yan, Yan'er, you should be happy that Xia'er has become a second-class martial artist."
"I don't want to say this tonight. I'm tired too." Jiang Yan's tone was quite calm, and he didn't even raise his eyelids. He got up and walked to the bedside.
"Yan'er, I."
"Don't come over, you sleep on the ground tonight."
"Ah!"...
===.
It was already late at night. She turned over and over in her small room and couldn't sleep anyway. The scenes of the day stayed in her mind. In order to please the village head, Xie Xuan gave away his hard-earned prey for nothing. Although he is for his own children, he has always been uncomfortable with it.
"Is this caused by insufficient strength?" Jiang Xia muttered gently, and his gray eyes blinked in the night. In fact, he couldn't see anything. "Why am I blind? Why can't I see it?"
Jing Xia's heart had a little inferiority, and she turned back a few times. She was not sleepy at all. Suo put on her clothes and planned to go outside. She carefully touched the door, opened the door and went out, and did not disturb her sleeping parents.
The soft evening breeze blows gently, which makes Xia's heart a little less depressed. The bright moon and stars in the sky are dark and ubiquitous in this child's eyes.
"Hello, little guy!" An old and peaceful voice came into Xia's ears.
"Who?"
