In the pitch-black courtyard at night, only a few lights shone through the glass of the doors and windows, casting dim shadows against the darkness.
Most people in the courtyard eat dinner and chat at home, with only a few strolling around the courtyard to digest their food.
The family got tired of the sights and sounds, and there was no entertainment equipment in the house to pass the time. So, the people in the courtyard basically developed the habit of taking a walk after meals, looking for some fun to improve their boring lives.
Among them, Sha Zhu is a restless fellow who becomes very active after Wu Wei returns home safely.
Unable to contain his excitement, he wandered around the yard.
Coincidentally, Xu Damao figured out the situation in the courtyard in these three days. It was no longer Yi Zhonghai and Granny Long's world. He realized that he had been deceived.
He was always looking for an opportunity to take revenge on Sha Zhu and make Sha Zhu a eunuch like himself.
Sha Zhu had secretly developed feelings for Wu Wei. He casually strolled to the backyard and bumped into Xu Damao walking out. He caught him in his arms and exclaimed, "Ah, who is it?"
"Ah, you idiot Zhu, I told you to ram me, go to hell..." Xu Damao's small body was knocked to the ground by Sha Zhu's burly body. After hearing Sha Zhu's voice, he got up and started punching and kicking.
Just then, Zheng Ya, disguised as Jia Dongxu, arrived at the Jia family and beat Jia Zhangshi so badly that she cried out, "Ahhh, did you kill someone?"
"You unfilial son, stop!"
It should be noted that Jia Zhangshi was known for her tantrums and loud voice, which was a great advantage of her. At this moment, she let out a shrill scream, which instantly startled everyone in the courtyard, who rushed out of their homes to see what was going on.
Watching Jia Zhangshi being abused was something everyone in the courtyard dreamed of.
Who made Jia Zhangshi so lazy and greedy, always taking the opportunity to steal things from other people's homes in the courtyard, thus incurring everyone's hatred?
When Jia Zhangshi was caught stealing, she said, "Let me see it. If the quality is good, I'll buy one in the same style tomorrow."
Listen to this, she actually thinks she's right?
When confronted, Jia Zhangshi threw herself on the ground and started a tantrum, summoning her spirit, which was disgusting and not to be trifled with!
At this moment, the news that Jia Zhangshi had been beaten spread like wildfire, and in an instant, the entire household gathered outside the Jia family's gate to watch the spectacle.
Even Sha Zhu and Xu Damao, who were wrestling, let go upon hearing the commotion and rushed to the scene to watch the excitement.
During this period, Yan Fugui cleverly sent his eldest son, Yan Jiecheng, to persuade Liu Haizhong, an official-obsessed man, to support the conference and publicly criticize and educate Jia Dongxu for his unfilial behavior of beating his mother.
Such acts of filial impiety have a terrible impact and seriously affect the healthy growth of children; they must be strictly stopped.
Upon hearing this, Liu Haizhong revived on the spot, but he also became more cautious. He claimed that Yi Zhonghai was an elder in the courtyard and asked Yi Zhonghai to handle the vicious incident of Jia Dongxu beating Jia Zhangshi.
Yi Zhonghai couldn't refuse at all, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to her door: "Dongxu, stop right now, do you want to beat your mother to death?"
With a "smack," Zheng Ya slapped Jia Zhangshi away and threw her clothes out, all of which landed on Yi Zhonghai as he walked in, creating a mess.
Yi Zhonghai was busy shaking off his smelly clothes when he collided with Jia Zhangshi a second time, turning into a rolling gourd.
In fact, Zheng Ya originally did not intend to do anything to the people in the courtyard, nor did he plan any revenge against them, so as not to attract the attention of those with ulterior motives.
But after Jia Zhangshi returned today, she cursed and swore all day long, almost cursing Zheng Ya's ancestors for eight generations.
Given this situation, Zheng Ya, Xu Qi, and Fu Qingyao could not possibly engage in a verbal altercation with Jia Zhangshi, as that would demonstrate their low character.
But I really feel terrible inside.
Who in the world can tolerate being insulted for a whole day?
Furthermore, Jia Dongxu's arrogant and domineering behavior in demanding compensation from Zheng Ya, coupled with the lack of retribution from Zheng Ya, emboldened Jia Zhangshi, who roamed the streets hurling insults at Zheng Ya's family.
The key issue is that Jia Zhangshi curses people without naming them, and no one knows how to persuade her.
After all, Jia Zhangshi was so good at cursing that she would curse anyone she saw, and no one wanted to go up to her and risk getting into trouble!
Therefore, Jia Zhangshi only managed to vent her anger on Zheng Ya, and Zheng Ya then decided to experiment with his ever-changing abilities, transforming into Jia Dongxu to beat Jia Zhangshi up.
After being improved by planning abilities and time and space abilities, the Thousand Faces Shrinking Technique has become a spatially versatile system with a time-constant appearance, and the planning ability suppresses the duration of appearance changes.
You don't know until you try. Once you try, Zheng Ya understands the essence of the ever-changing techniques, which is many times better than the ever-changing techniques of the Thousand-Faced Butcher.
If practiced to the extreme, it might truly reach the level of seventy-two transformations.
However, Zheng Ya only initially mastered the ability of transformation, and could only use three kinds of supernatural spiritual power to cause a slight increase in body size and contraction of muscles and bones, but the change in appearance was comprehensive.
As long as the appearance of the person being transformed differs too much from Zheng Ya's, Zheng Ya can transform into the target's appearance.
As for the change in hair color, it's just a matter of hormones affecting hair color, which is a piece of cake for Zheng Ya, who has three superpowers.
However, this change consumes a significant amount of positive virtue and negative virtue.
Basically, each consumes one unit per second.
Physical violence increases costs tenfold.
After Zheng Ya experimented with this effect and gained some insights, he found Jia Zhangshi's private savings, divided it in two, and gave one portion to Jia Zhangshi and the other to Qin Huairu.
Qin Huairu was shocked to discover that Jia Dongxu was a fake. In the instant she took the money, she noticed that Zheng Ya's eyes were firm and determined, containing a hidden hatred, which was far superior to Jia Dongxu's shifty and sneaky eyes.
There's also the difference between Jia Dongxu wearing size 40 cloth shoes and Zheng Ya wearing size 42 liberation shoes. Qin Huairu made the cloth shoes for Jia Dongxu by hand. You can tell who this person is and why she is helping him.
At this moment, Yi Zhonghai helped Jia Zhangshi up and angrily rebuked Jia Dongxu: "Dongxu, you've gone too far..."
With a "bang," Zheng Ya shoved Jia Zhangshi out the door and then kicked Yi Zhonghai in the groin, all in one swift motion.
Two screams rang out simultaneously, flying from the house into the yard and knocking down a group of people.
Just as the crowd was in chaos, Zheng Ya strode out, and the people in the courtyard made way for him wherever he went.
Originally, Sha Zhu mistakenly thought that Jia Dongxu was bullying Qin Huairu, and he was also interested in Qin Huairu's beauty, so he wanted to stand up for her.
But when Jia Zhangshi and Yi Zhonghai flew out of the house and crashed into the crowd three meters away, Sha Zhu was startled. Had Jia Dongxu taken some kind of drug? How could he be so fierce?
Jia Zhangshi weighed over 150 jin and Yi Zhonghai weighed over 130 jin. Both of them were kicked three or four meters away by him. He's a superman!
Even the God of War, Shazhu, was frightened away. Liu Haizhong, Xu Damao, and the others wanted to stop him, but their bodies betrayed them and they retreated.
Zheng Ya strode away, and just a hundred meters from the courtyard, he ran into Jia Dongxu, who was returning from drinking. They brushed past each other.
It was too dark. Jia Dongxu, still drunk, walked home, completely unaware that he had been switched at birth and was causing trouble. As soon as he entered the courtyard, Jia Zhangshi grabbed his legs and cried pitifully, "Ah, son, why don't you beat your old mother to death?"
"I'd rather die than go to the countryside to farm..."
