This ghostly voice arose, and both Zhang Dabao and Qin Yufeng were slightly startled.
They saw that the stool Zhang Dabao had just smashed over was now being held in Wu Xiaoshan's hand, and at this moment, Wu Xiaoshan's face was covered in blood, his eyes fiercely fixed on Zhang Dabao, looking genuinely terrifying.
"You... you're alright?"
Zhang Dabao swallowed hard, a flicker of panic in his eyes, he was acutely aware of the viciousness of his blow just now.
But Wu Xiaoshan seemed as if nothing had happened to him!
Wu Xiaoshan stared coldly at Zhang Dabao, his eyes filled with hatred. He had been humiliated by the people of Wolong Village for years, Zhang Dabao even more so.
Today this guy actually wanted to kill him outright—old grudges and new, Wu Xiaoshan was thoroughly enraged.
When he caught the flying stool with his bare hands just now, Wu Xiaoshan knew that the information in his mind was all true!
He was actually a descendant of Divine Doctor Daoist Wu Tao!
With this in mind, why should he fear Zhang Dabao, the mere village chief of Wolong Village?!
"Zhang Dabao, for years you have been exploiting your position, acting tyrannically in Wolong Village, bullying men and overpowering women. I don't know how many women have suffered because of you. Today, I'm going to make you pay back some of your debts!"
As Wu Xiaoshan spoke, with a flick of his hand, the wooden stool flew straight towards Zhang Dabao.
Zhang Dabao instinctively raised his hands to protect himself, "Ouch," he cried out as the stool hit his arm, the pain making him grimace.
"You little bastard, rebelling against me, you even dare to hit your master, you're seeking death, I will grant it to you!"
Pain made Zhang Dabao even more furious, swinging his fists, he charged towards Wu Xiaoshan.
Wu Xiaoshan was just about to move when he suddenly paused—Zhang Dabao's speed seemed to slow down significantly in his eyes.
It was like a slow-motion scene from a TV show.
What's going on?
Wu Xiaoshan was puzzled, but he didn't have time to think any further because Zhang Dabao was already upon him.
He slightly crouched down, dodging Zhang Dabao's fist, and at the same time, threw a straight punch, hitting Zhang Dabao's stomach hard.
"Oh!" Zhang Dabao cried out in pain, clutching his belly, tears of pain in his eyes.
Kick them when they're down.
Wu Xiaoshan followed up his advantage, rushing to Zhang Dabao's side, fiercely kicking him in the stomach, then unleashing a storm-like barrage of blows.
Wu Xiaoshan vented all the grievances he had suffered over the years on Zhang Dabao's body.
"Xiaoshan, stop it, if you keep hitting him, you'll kill him!"
Seeing Zhang Dabao lying on the ground, barely breathing, Qin Yufeng hurriedly pulled Wu Xiaoshan back.
Hearing Qin Yufeng's words, Wu Xiaoshan suddenly snapped out of it, looking at Zhang Dabao who was at death's door, Wu Xiaoshan felt a tinge of fear.
Even though Zhang Dabao was scum, if he actually killed him, his own life would be over as well.
"Still playing dead here? If you don't leave, Young Master I will continue the beating!"
Seeing Zhang Dabao's eyelids twitch, Wu Xiaoshan knew this guy was pretending.
Hearing Wu Xiaoshan's words, Zhang Dabao quickly scrambled up. He glared at Wu Xiaoshan and Qin Yufeng with a bruised and swollen face, and through gritted teeth said, "Fine, you two just wait, as long as I, Zhang Dabao, am in Wolong Village, I will make sure you have no good days! Qin Yufeng, wait for your family's welfare to be cut off!"
After throwing down these cruel words, Zhang Dabao ran off, afraid Wu Xiaoshan might continue to beat him.
He could never have imagined that the kid who couldn't withstand a single punch from him before had suddenly become so powerful.
But this wasn't over!
Once Zhang Dabao had left, Qin Yufeng quickly pulled Wu Xiaoshan aside, asking with concern, "Xiaoshan, how are you?"
Wu Xiaoshan waved his hand and laughed, "I'm fine."
Seeing Wu Xiaoshan could still laugh, Qin Yufeng finally relaxed. But soon, she sighed softly, "If Zhang Dabao really cuts off my welfare, then my future days... Xiaoshan, what's wrong with you?"
Before Qin Yufeng could finish speaking, Wu Fan "boom," collapsed onto the ground.
...
In a daze, Wu Xiaoshan slowly opened his eyes, his head still throbbing with pain. He cursed Zhang Dabao inwardly for his heavy hand. Just as he was about to get up, he heard the voice of Qin Yufeng.
"Xiaoshan, you're awake? Do you feel any better?"
Amidst speaking, Qin Yufeng walked over with a bowl in hand toward Wu Xiaoshan.
Wu Xiaoshan opened his eyes to look at Qin Yufeng, just as he was about to speak, his vision blurred, and he froze in shock.
He looked down at his own body, nothing?
Then he looked at Qin Yufeng, apparently also nothing...
"Sister Yu Feng, although I have a soft spot for you, but... but you can't do those shameless things to me while I'm asleep, how are you any different from Zhang Dabao's behavior? Even if you really want to, you... you should at least wait for me to be awake!"
Wu Xiaoshan's face was full of frustration, biting his lip, his eyes brimming with defiance and grievance.
To think such a good thing was done while I was unconscious... It's really too much bullying...
Qin Yufeng was bewildered by Wu Xiaoshan's words, her brows knitted slightly in confusion, and she asked, "What shameless act are you talking about?"
"Uh, Sister, let's not talk about this, your clothes, um...?"
Mid-sentence, Wu Xiaoshan glanced back at Qin Yufeng, only to see that she was now clothed.
What in the world is going on? Did my head get damaged?
Sister Yu Feng clearly was wearing nothing just now...
"Xiaoshan, did Zhang Dabao damage your brain? Should I... should I accompany you to the hospital to have a look?" Qin Yufeng asked, seeing Wu Xiaoshan speak incoherently, her concern could not be hidden.
"No, no, no, I'm fine. Sister, I just woke up, my mind isn't very clear yet," Wu Xiaoshan quickly changed the subject.
He was certain his eyes weren't tricking him, but what was that situation just now?
Could it be... I have x-ray vision now?!
At this moment, Wu Xiaoshan thought of the Qiankun Eye mentioned previously by his ancestor's voice!
Thinking of this, Wu Xiaoshan's little heart trembled with excitement.
Damn, if I really can see through things, then... isn't that...?
The thought of it made him salivate, this was the rhythm of striking it rich!
Of course, what excited Wu Xiaoshan the most was, if all this was true, then inheriting his ancestor's legacy meant that soaring to great heights was just around the corner, right?
"Xiaoshan, are you all right?" Qin Yufeng saw Wu Xiaoshan grinning foolishly, her face filled with worry.
"Haha, I'm fine, I'm fine," Wu Xiaoshan laughed, feeling blissful inside.
"That's good. Here, drink some chicken soup first. You lost so much blood yesterday; you need to replenish your strength," Qin Yufeng said, her eyes softening as she remembered how Wu Xiaoshan bravely fought for her.
Wu Xiaoshan saw the chicken soup Qin Yufeng was holding and felt a pang of heartache, "Sister, you... did you slaughter the egg-laying hen from your house?"
Qin Yufeng was taken aback, managing a forced smile.
"How could you do this? Your home's circumstances are already not good, and that hen was still laying eggs. You could have sold the eggs for a good amount of money. This is a waste!"
Seeing Qin Yufeng silently admitting it, Wu Xiaoshan furrowed his brows but felt a warmth in his heart, knowing that she wanted to nourish him back to health.
"Sister, you have some too. I'll get you another laying hen later," Wu Xiaoshan said as he took the chicken soup and drank it greedily.
"Ah..."
Just after finishing the soup, Qin Yufeng let out a light gasp, squatting down, clutching her stomach, her face pale as a ghost, with cold sweat beading on her forehead.
"Sister, what's the matter with you?" Wu Xiaoshan jumped out of bed in a jolt, steadying Qin Yufeng.
"It's... it's nothing, just an old ailment," Qin Yufeng said shakily as she stood up. In just that short while, her lips had turned dry and pale, revealing her severe pain.
Seeing Qin Yufeng's pained expression, Wu Xiaoshan's heart tightened, and he said with concern, "Shall we go to the hospital to have a look?"
"No, it's not serious," Qin Yufeng waved her hand, her mouth twisted in a bitter smile: "The hospital is no place for us country folks, it's outrageously expensive. I'm not that fragile; I'll get over it."
Listening to Qin Yufeng, Wu Xiaoshan's heart felt even heavier.
Indeed, Wolong Village wasn't very wealthy to begin with; most villagers were quite poor and just endured their illnesses, gritting their teeth and toughing it out.
Suddenly, Wu Xiaoshan's eyes lit up, slapping his thigh in realization, damn it, didn't I inherit my ancestor's legacy? Doesn't it include medical skills?
With that thought, Wu Xiaoshan excitedly said, "Sister, let's not go to the hospital, I'll cure your illness!"
