Yang Ge raised his head and said, "My tone may be big, but it's nothing compared to you chaining boats together, murdering and arsoning in your crazed obsession... Anyway, can you come down and talk to me? I don't like looking up at people!"
The robust middle-aged man scoffed, "We'll see if you've got the skills to make me!"
