Xiao Feng looked at Hui Yi: "So what do you suggest we do?"
Hui Yi thought for a mont and said: "Four people acting together is too conspicuous. I'll sneak over by myself first, and when Little Shiba isn't paying attention, I'll pin him down from behind.
Once I've pinned him down, you guys hurry over to help; just make sure he doesn't jump off."
Lone Wolf nodded: "Sounds good to ."
Xiao Feng didn't say anything. Although it sounded feasible, his intuition told him this plan wouldn't succeed.
Hui Yi crouched low, moving quickly towards Hui Shiba by the shore. Due to the uneven ground, his steps were a bit shaky, making the sight sowhat nerve-wracking.
As he got closer, Hui Yi glanced up at his target, then looked down to check his footing.
In fact, if he had looked carefully, he would have noticed that the person standing by the shore, although similar in height to Hui Shiba and also wearing a hat, was dressed quite differently.
Unfortunately, Hui Yi's attention wasn't there; he was solely focused on getting behind "Hui Shiba" quickly and unnoticed.
At that mont, the figure standing by the shore exclaid with a nostalgic tone, hands clasped behind his back: "When young, one knows not the taste of sorrow, grows fond of high floors; grows fond of high floors, for the sake of new verses, pretends to speak of sorrow.
Now that I know the full taste of sorrow, I hesitate to speak; I hesitate to speak, yet still say, 'What a chilly autumn day.'"
The voice sounded very young, likely not very old, but as he finished, he shook his head, looking rather resigned.
In deanor, a typical literary youth, fond of indulging in such lancholic sentints.
However, at this mont, the young man suddenly heard a loud shout from behind: "Little Shiba, brother's here!"
The young man was startled and turned to look, only to see soone sprinting towards him.
As Hui Yi rushed forward, his eyes widened.
Holy shit!
It wasn't Little Shiba after all?
Shocked, his feet started tapping the ground like he's doing a tap dance, trying to slow down.
"Don't... don't co over, you... what do you want?"
Frightened, the young man spoke while instinctively stepping backward.
But he forgot he was standing by the shore.
After stepping back twice, he suddenly slipped.
"Ah!"
"Splash!"
Hui Yi finally managed to co to a stop, but the young man fell into the lake.
The water wasn't deep, reaching just up to the young man's chest.
After swallowing a few gulps of lake water, the young man barely steadied himself, coughing violently while angrily demanding: "What the hell is wrong with you?"
Xiao Feng and the others arrived nearby and upon seeing the young man in the lake, they all felt utterly speechless. How could this even happen?
Hui Yi awkwardly said, "In the dead of winter, you're standing there alone; I thought you were going to jump into the river."
"So, I should thank you?" The young man, outraged, forced a laugh.
What he didn't expect was Hui Yi actually waved him off, seriously saying: "No need to thank , it's just what I should do."
The young man, furious, climbed out and shouted angrily: "Don't think I'm scared just because there's more of you. My phone and clothes are soaked, what are you going to do about it?"
"Your phone and clothes got wet, what's it got to do with us? It wasn't us who pushed you in, go ask him." Xiao Feng directly shifted the bla to Hui Yi.
Of course, technically it's not even shifting bla; it was Hui Yi's plan and his execution, so naturally, he should bear the consequences.
The two bickered back and forth for a while, and Hui Yi eventually transferred two thousand to the young man to settle the matter.
This also sowhat showed that Hui Yi was still reasonable; after all, if he was really unwilling to compensate, the young man couldn't do much about it.
He couldn't win a fight, didn't have a phone to call the police, the only option was to just suck it up.
"What a stroke of bad luck!"
Watching the satisfied young man walking away happily, Hui Yi stomped his foot and beat his chest.
Hui Er ignored him and looked at Xiao Feng, saying, "Brother Feng, didn't Xiaohua Ling say Brother Eighteen was by the lake? But there's no one else around here."
Just as he finished speaking, rustling sounds ca from the grass on the other side of the shore.
Soon after, Hui Shiba appeared in their line of sight.
Upon seeing Xiao Feng and the others on the opposite shore, Hui Shiba imdiately showed a look of shock, saying blankly: "Brother Feng, Big Brother, Second Brother, and Brother Wolf, what are you doing here?"
Xiao Feng, annoyed, said: "You have the nerve to ask? We're here because of you!"
Hui Yi and Hui Er exchanged a glance, then without another word, they exerted force with their feet and sprang forward like springs, drawing two arcs in the air.
Clearly, their intention was to catch and give Hui Shiba a good beating first before anything else.
However, the ground on both sides of the river was muddy, and when Hui Yi and Hui Er jumped to the other side, they couldn't even see the tops of their shoes, their ankles sunk into the mud.
To make it worse, because they were caught off guard, they lost their balance upon landing, toppling forward with their hands and wrists also sinking into the mud.
"..." Xiao Feng.
"..." Lone Wolf.
Watching Hui Yi and Hui Er with their butts stuck in the air, Xiao Feng and Lone Wolf couldn't help but feel powerless to complain; could you guys possibly be any less reliable?
Just then, Hui Shiba lifted a dark, mud-dripping object, showing off as he said: "Look what this is?"
Xiao Feng and Lone Wolf on the opposite shore, with Hui Yi and Hui Er with their butts in the air, all turned their heads to look.
Hui Yi, face flushed, angrily said: "Lower it a bit, who can see anything when you hold it that high!"
"We can see it just fine," Xiao Feng added without hesitation.
"..." Hui Yi.
He suddenly had a premonition that in the days to co, things might not be easy for him.
At this mont, Hui Shiba wiped the mud off the object in his hand, and only then could everyone see its true form.
In terms of shape, it looked sowhat like a common water dipper, very round, about the size of an adult's palm.
"Big Brother, Second Brother, take a look at this," Hui Shiba handed the "water dipper" over to Hui Yi and Hui Er.
Hui Er couldn't tolerate it anymore, thinking that instead of showing them sothing, they should just pull them out first.
But before he could say anything, Hui Yi beside him suddenly gasped, "Hiss... this seems like Thunder Pattern Steel!"
The ntion of "Thunder Pattern Steel" imdiately made Hui Er forget all his complaints, urging, "Little Shiba, move it closer to , let see if it really is Thunder Pattern Steel."
Listening obediently, Hui Shiba brought the "water dipper" closer to Hui Er's face.
Witnessing this, Xiao Feng couldn't help but stifle a laugh.
The scene was too reminiscent of soone feeding pigs with a bucket of feed.
Carrying the "water dipper," Hui Shiba was like a farr who just scooped a ladle of feed from the bucket.
Especially since Hui Yi and Hui Er were standing there, bodies bent forward and heads stretched out, they truly resembled piglets jostling for feed.
However, Xiao Feng noticed sothing strange, since both Hui Yi and Hui Er ntioned Thunder Pattern Steel.
What is Thunder Pattern Steel?
Is it a special kind of steel?
If that's the case, how co I've never heard of such a steel?
