His emotions were originally cold and thin, and even though they became a little more lively as he grew older, nine and a half points of them were directed towards Luo Jiujiang.
From this perspective, the two derogatory titles he gave to Du Di in a good mood and good spirits were almost condescending.
——Fortunately, Du Di knew nothing about this matter, otherwise he would have been so angry that he turned into a toad on the spot.
If Luo Jiujiang's forgiveness stemmed entirely from his frank and easygoing nature, then Han Qianling's tolerance stemmed from his indifference. Not only did he not care about other people's opinions and evaluations of him, but also because those who made the evaluations were not worthy of his attention.
However, just because he downplayed these things, it didn't mean Luo Jiujiang could ignore them. Putting aside Du Di's sarcastic greetings when he saw Luo Jiujiang late that day, the mere mention of Han Qianling's parents' hidden pain was enough to make Luo Jiujiang furious.
After hearing from others how Du Di had deliberately made things difficult for Han Qianling, Luo Jiujiang immediately went to find out about Du Di's living habits. When he learned that Du Di liked to use boiling water for his evening bath, he immediately had a plan in mind.
That afternoon, Luo Jiujiang sneaked into the kitchen, took away a large basket of eggs, and asked Han Qianling to accompany him to crack a whole jar of eggs.
That evening, Du Di was enjoying a comfortable hot bath in the Luo family's guest room when he suddenly heard a commotion outside. He frowned, and before he could scold the maids for making a fuss, a masked man in black broke in through the window.
The opponent came with not only a fierce momentum but also ill intentions. He had a large, strange ball tucked under his arm, and in the blink of an eye, he was right in front of Du Di. Du Di was already inexperienced in combat, let alone such a sudden and unexpected situation. For a moment, he was completely dazed. He instinctively reached for something, but only to find nothing in the water.
The masked figure moved with remarkable agility, ripping the black cloth off the ball the moment he reached Duti. The ball, it turned out, was actually a jar. He tossed it up and down, and with a splash, Duti was doused head and shoulders in the jar of egg liquid, his face aghast.
Egg liquid becomes solid when it comes into contact with boiling water. The masked man was also insidious, putting a handful of chopped green onions in the egg liquid and adding a lot of rice vinegar and sesame oil.
Immediately, countless egg drop soups floated up and down in the tub, leaving Du Di with a dazed expression, his face and head covered in the thin egg drop soup. The servants guarding the door and the maids waiting near the tub could have sworn that at that moment, the room was filled with the mouth-watering aroma of egg drop soup.
The masked man unleashed his sword, slashing it across the large tub in two swishes. Du Di had never experienced anything like this before. Forced from the room by the sword, he fled bare-chested, even pursued by the masked man. He then swung his egg-drop-shaped cloak around the courtyard where the guests were resting, bringing a delicious aroma of soup to everyone.
Since then, Du Di's heroic figure walking naked with a bird and covered in egg flowers has been an enduring joke on the island for a long time.
As soon as this happened, Du Di returned home in anger without even waiting to participate in the year-end competition.
Considering what Du Di had done previously, the identity of the masked man in black was self-evident. Furthermore, Luo Jiujiang was only twelve years old at the time, and his shorter stature couldn't hide his flaws. However, even though everyone knew what was going on, Luo Jiujiang feigned ignorance, insisting on his complete innocence.
In the end, the matter was concluded as a "playful affair between the younger generation." Luo Jiujiang's mischievous character also left a deep impression on everyone.
Luo Jiujiang did achieve a good ranking in the competition that year, but he did not get the prize he deserved afterwards.
The reward was not embezzled; it was seized by his father, the clan leader. The clan leader never gave any explanation for the confiscation, but Luo Jiujiang knew why and just smiled.
Having said this, Luo Cang formed his fingers into a knife and slashed downwards with a decisive blow! This finger slashed out diagonally for only a little over three inches, but it made a sound of breaking through the air and splitting the wind. In an instant, the spiritual energy in the garden suddenly gathered, and dust rose up. A huge and mysterious pressure burst out from Luo Cang's fingertips, almost forcing all living things to submit!
The moment Luo Cang's finger fell, a strong wind suddenly arose, muffled thunder rumbled, and a flash of lightning like a knife cut through the sky with unstoppable momentum. At that moment, it seemed as if all the sounds and all the feelings were stripped away from Luo Jiujiang. What he saw in front of his eyes, in his ears, and what he felt in his heart was only this knife!
Luo Jiujiang grabbed his collar and for a moment he was unable to breathe because of the dense cyclone around him.
"That's it." Luo Cang's expression remained unchanged as he casually withdrew his hand, "One move to kill the enemy, no need to elaborate. What you did just now wasn't a sword strike, it was a sawing motion."
Luo Jiujiang's throat rolled up and down, and the horror in his heart had not yet faded.
Seeing such a powerful sword, he no longer had any temper towards Luo Cang who had just mocked him for "juniors fighting each other".
Compared to the power and stunning appearance of this knife, the way he used it just now could only be called a "scratch".
