"Hey, what are you doing? You two shouldn't be looking for trouble."
Sha Zhu was forced to retreat repeatedly by the Liu brothers, but behind him stood Yan Jiecheng with a wicked grin, "Don't make a move, or you'll be in for a world of hurt once my arm heals."
Liu Guangfu chuckled: "Hey, Shazhu, stop showing off. Even if your arm is healed, so what? You know you're in the wrong, don't you? And you're still threatening us. How shameless of you."
"The old man just said that cheating will result in an extra ten points on the belt, while not cheating will result in no punishment. Isn't that enough?"
Yan Jiecheng crossed his arms and blocked Sha Zhu's way, squinting at him, afraid that the brat would slip away if he wasn't careful. "Looking at you like this, if I were an old man, I wouldn't bother to examine you. I'd just take you over and draw your blood."
Seeing that the other party was determined to drag him over, Sha Zhu gritted his teeth and glared at the three of them.
"You don't need to lift a finger. I, Master Zhu, have legs now. I can walk by myself. Get out of my way."
As he spoke, Sha Zhu swung his arm and tried to pull Liu Guangfu away.
"That's settled then. Don't you know you should stand at attention when you're about to be hit?" Liu Guangfu dodged Sha Zhu's hand, then stepped aside and gestured for him to proceed.
Sha Zhu snorted and walked towards the table where Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were.
Liu Guangfu pursed his lips, exchanged a smile with Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiecheng, and the three of them followed.
Liu Haizhong walked out from behind the table with his hands behind his back, and Yan Bugui blinked and came to Sha Zhu's side.
Sha Zhu was quite the straightforward fellow, reaching out to stop Liu Haizhong from approaching: "Wait, you don't need to do it, I'll do it myself."
After saying that, he unbuckled his belt in front of everyone and reached into his buttocks to start rummaging around.
The residents of the compound left their seats and crowded around, eager to see what Sha Zhu's "equipment" looked like.
After a series of actions, Sha Zhu pulled a "cushion" out of his crotch.
The outside was a thin cloth, and the inside was crumpled soft newspaper.
Yan Bugui stepped forward and took it, feeling it in his hand. He found that there seemed to be a slightly harder object mixed in, but it was only slightly harder than the newspaper.
"Well, you're really something, you're trying to outsmart me, aren't you?"
Xu Damao rushed up and pointed at Shazhu's nose, yelling, "So you didn't feel any pain at all, but you exhausted me. You're a real piece of work."
Yan Bugui pulled Xu Damao aside to prevent them from arguing and fighting again. "Shazhu, how did you come up with the idea of cheating? Did someone teach you? Who taught you? Tell your second uncle, and I'll have him help you with ten belts."
Upon hearing Yan Bugui's question, Liu Haizhong also turned his attention to the issue. The two men had simple thoughts and suspected that it was Yi Zhonghai's idea.
If we could transfer Sha Zhu's ten belts to Yi Zhonghai, that would be perfect. Even if the other party had to pay money to buy them, it would cost an extra ten yuan. Although they wouldn't get their hands on them, they would still be happy to see Yi Zhonghai spend more money.
"Yan Bugui, who do you think you are!"
Sha Zhu rolled his eyes at Yan Bugui. "It's just cheating. You don't need someone to teach you this. I was born knowing how."
Upon hearing Sha Zhu address him as "Master Zhu," Yan Bugui's face turned red with anger. He immediately retorted, "Sha Zhu, just keep showing off. When you get beaten, don't cry for your parents. Even if you do, your parents can't help you."
"I'll beat you to death."
Xu Damao stood by, eager to try.
Liu Haizhong gave Yan Bugui a wink, and the two sat back down at the table.
"Everyone, please return to your seats."
Liu Haizhong waved to the neighbors who had gathered around, "Now that things are clear, He Yuzhu did indeed cheat. As we discussed before, we'll add ten belts to the original amount, making a total of sixty belts. Now we'll continue to punish him."
"Speak," Liu Haizhong waved to the Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu brothers.
Upon receiving the order, the two generals walked to Sha Zhu's side, one on the left and one on the right, and pushed Sha Zhu toward the bench.
After the commotion, Xu Damao felt the energy he had just used up return to his body. He grabbed the belt and headed straight for Sha Zhu, who was climbing onto the bench.
*Smack!!!*
"Oh my god..."
Just as Sha Zhu climbed onto the bench, his butt sticking out and not yet lying down, Xu Damao rushed over with momentum and swung his arm, delivering a sharp slap to Sha Zhu's two buttocks with his belt.
With a thud, Sha Zhu, like a deflated giant lizard, slumped heavily onto the bench.
"Xu Damao, you son of a bitch, you're cheating... ah..."
Sha Zhu struggled to get up, but Xu Damao didn't give him the chance at all, hitting his buttocks with the belt again and again.
With Sha Zhu's high-pitched howl, his body writhed on the bench like an eel that had come ashore. If the Liu brothers hadn't been holding the bench, he would have fallen over countless times.
The last time Sha Zhu was whipped with a belt, it was Jia Dongxu who did it, and it was obvious that Xu Damao was much stronger than Jia Dongxu.
After only a dozen or so strokes, Sha Zhu could no longer shout out loud, only a hoarse whimpering sound came from his throat. Xu Damao, on the other hand, got more and more excited as he whipped the ground, and the force he used made a small crater under his feet.
"Stop, Xu Damao, stop."
Yan Bugui shouted loudly.
Xu Damao, panting heavily, turned to look at Yan Bugui, too exhausted to speak for a moment.
Yan Bugui ran over to check on Sha Zhu's condition. He saw that the cloth on Sha Zhu's buttocks had been pulled into a mess, but his body seemed to be able to stand up. He then stood up and looked at Xu Damao: "Are you counting?"
"What?"
"What are you counting?"
Xu Damao's eyebrows furrowed, not understanding what Yan Bugui meant.
Yan Bugui slapped his thigh: "How many times? Did you count them?!"
"Oh, you mean that? I got so excited I forgot."
Xu Damao suddenly realized and continued, "Just make a rough estimate, or let's say fifteen."
"Waaah..."
*Smack!!!*
Sha Zhu struggled to get up and argue back, but Xu Damao shoved Yan Bugui aside and started lashing out with his belt again.
Yan Bugui didn't leave; he stood to the side and helped Shazhu count the belts.
After another dozen or so blows, Xu Damao gradually began to lose strength, his power was clearly less than half of what it was before. Sha Zhu slumped on the bench like a dead dog, swaying with each blow, clearly numb.
"Stop for a moment."
Wang Dabao got up from his seat, stopped Xu Damao who was about to raise his hand, and blinked, saying, "Damao, have a smoke and take a break. If this continues, Shazhu will really be smoked to death. You two just don't get along, but you don't have any deep hatred. Don't cause a death."
Xu Damao saw Wang Dabao wink at him and immediately understood: "Okay, then let that idiot Zhu catch his breath. If it weren't for you stopping me, Dabao, I would have beaten him to death."
