It did not take more than ten minutes for the sun to set. Around this time, two individuals stumbled out of the village. He Changming and his party glared at the lazy, drunken-like figures, wishing nothing more than to beat them up.
The two men who had appeared at the village entrance were none other than Sun Dahai and Sun Dahe.
Zhao Qianshan and Fatty Luo called out to the two brothers. In the dim evening light, the two brothers could not see who had called them. They looked around for some time to no avail. Just as they were about to head back, cursing up a storm for wasting their time, several figures jumped them from the bushes by the roadside.
Kicks and punches were exchanged, all of which were aimed at Sun Dahai and
Sun Dahe.
With one of his arms broken, Sun Dahai could not muster enough strength to ward off the blows. On the other hand, his brother, Sun Dahe, was a burly man used to fighting with his peers in the village and more than capable of handling himself in a brawl. Zhao Qianshan, who was as thin as a bean sprout, and Fatty Luo, who was not very strong, were not Sun Dahe’s match.
Zhao Qlansnan and Fatty Luo’s underlings made it a tight ot tour against two, but despite their superior numbers, Zhao Qianshan and company could not gain the upper hand.
He Changming and his fellow hunters watched in stunned silence.
“How will they beat up Sun Dahai and Sun Dahe with strength like theirs?”
“Even weaklings pretend to be strong these days…”
“Hehe…”
“Brother Changming, let’s go! I alone will be enough to beat all six of them.”
The hunters could not help but despise Zhao Qianshan and Fatty Luo’s ineffectual attempts, even though they had the same goal.
The longer they watched, the more dumbfounded they became, and soon He Changming and his party did not know whether to laugh or cry.
He Changming felt an irresistable urge to facepalm. Although he did not know who had cooked up this scheme that was similar to his goals, He Changming wondered how they could be so lacking in their execution of it, sending weaklings like Zhao Qianshan and Fatty Luo. While he had not wanted to cause unnecessary trouble for himself, he was more than willing to do so if only to put an end to this farce. Hence, he signaled his compatriots.
“Go help those buffoons, but keep it discreet.”
“We’re on it!”
The young hunters shouted excitedly, “Brother Shan, we’re here!”
Zhao Qianshan, who found himself pinned to the ground by Sun Dahe, blinked in confusion. Where had this lot come from? Why didn’t he remember calling for reinforcements? Zhao Qianshan wondered whether it was his fame that had summoned these youngsters in his hour of need. Their timing was impeccable!
Having reached this conclusion, Zhao Qianshan was overjoyed. The pain he felt from being pinned to the ground melted away.
Fatty Luo was even more excited and exclaimed, “Brother Shan, you’re amazing! As expected of my Brother Shan.”
When He Changming heard Fatty Luo’s cry, he smirked and told his fellow hunters to hurry up. They did not want to create too big of a scene.
Sun Dahai and Sun Dahe realized the growing stakes and knew they were in trouble. They tried disentangling themselves from Zhao Qianshan and Fatty Luo, hoping to return to the village for help, but the duo held fast and would not release them when they heard their reinforcements on the way.
With Zhao Qianshan glued to his legs like a weight, Sun Dahe could not disengage from the fight and ended up surrounded by He Changming’s men. He soon found himself plastered to the ground alongside his brother, Sun Dahai, and beaten black and blue.
Zhao Qianshan and Fatty Luo were shoved out of the fight and forced to watch from the sidelines. They watched slack-jawed, awed by the agile and fearless moves He Changming’s group put on display.
“Brother Shan, where did you find these awesome friends?” Fatty Luo asked, flushed and panting.
“I… I don’t know.” Zhao Qianshan noticed something off. He knew most of the hoodlums in the surrounding villages, but they were all sneaky sorts. How could he have attracted the adoration of such strong individuals? He would have left for the city long ago if he had such capabilities.
“What’s that?”
“L-lets run.’
“These fellows are too scary,” Fatty Luo agreed, wiping away the beads of sweat forming on his forehead. No sooner had he spoken than an arm wrapped around him, scaring him out of his skin.
“Ah! Ghost!”
However, Fatty Luo’s scream was nothing compared to Sun Dahai’s and the sheer misery it carried..
