Chapter 010 Mysterious Girl
The so-called western alley, as the name suggests, is an alley to the west of Duke Cheng's Mansion. Li Da and a few good playmates were already squatting there, waiting for Shen Yichen's arrival.
"Brother Da, are we really going to beat up Shen Yichen later? After all, he is a descendant of the Duke, will he cause trouble?"
The chubby white student who had laughed at Shen Yichen in class before now sounded a little hesitant, worried that he would be held accountable later.
"He, Shen Yichen, is just the son of a maid. What could happen to him?"
Li Da replied with arrogance on his face, not taking Shen Yichen seriously at all.
In the past, because of his status as Duke Cheng, he could not go looking for trouble even if he had a problem with Shen Yichen in the academy. Now Shen Yichen actually dared to provoke him, if he did not teach this maid a lesson, how could he win the support of others in the academy in the future?
"But today the Duke asked Shen Yichen to go to the private school in the inner courtyard. What if..."
Before the fat man could finish his words, Li Da interrupted him impatiently, "There's no such thing as a last resort. Zhang Qi, why are you acting like a woman now? If you're scared, just leave. Anyway, I have to teach Shen Yichen a lesson today!"
At the same time, several playmates began to laugh at the fat white boy when they saw his timid look.
"Zhang Qi, you really think Shen Yichen is your young master, don't you?"
"Didn't you hear the Duke say that he was still an attached student when he went to the inner courtyard? He is just a servant's son after all."
"With your guts, how can you join the army in the future? Don't bring shame to your ancestors."
Facing the ridicule and teasing of his companions, the fat white man Zhang Qi replied angrily: "Who is afraid? Would I be afraid of Shen Yichen, a bastard?"
"Zhang Qi, if I remember correctly, your mother seems to be a concubine. Even if your father Zhang stayed here, he wouldn't dare to call me a bastard. Are you worthy of that?"
A sharp voice came from the entrance of the alley. Shen Yichen was looking at the group of people in front of him with a cold face, no longer having the cynical attitude he had before.
The reason is very simple. Even though Shen Yichen is no longer his original self, he doesn't care about his legitimate or illegitimate birth in ancient times.
But after all, Shen Yichen's original memory and subconscious are still there, and the title of bastard is an obsession in his heart, which Shen Yichen cannot completely stay out of now.
Maybe it was because Shen Yichen's image was completely different from the past that made Zhang Qi feel suddenly chilled. The words of rebuttal were already on the tip of his tongue, but he swallowed them back and dared not say a word.
"Humph, you're pretty tough."
Seeing that Zhang Qi didn't dare to speak, Li Da stood up. After all, he was the "boss" of the outer courtyard private school, and his family status also included that of a legitimate son. He would not be scared by Shen Yichen's words.
At this time, Li Da threw the school bag on his shoulder to the ground and said, "Shen Yichen, don't rely on your numbers to bully you. Today, I will teach you some rules!"
Li Da didn't take the timid Shen Yichen seriously from the bottom of his heart. There was no need to use the method of bullying the weak with the majority to teach him a lesson. He could handle it alone.
Facing Li Da's posture of starting a fight, Shen Yichen appeared calm on the surface, but he was somewhat worried in his heart.
This kid talked about martial ethics in a one-on-one fight, but he didn't talk about the process of verbal battle. According to his plan, he should have a verbal battle first to buy some time for Zhao Hongjie to bring the master over. As a result, now the plan cannot keep up with the changes.
"Okay, but theoretically the people who can educate me are Heaven, Earth, the Emperor, Parents and Teachers. Li Da, who do you think you can replace?"
"I'll replace you..."
Li Da, the teacher of heaven and earth, would certainly not dare to be disrespectful, so he subconsciously replied: I will replace your father!
However, he stopped abruptly when he reached the last word, and his expression became more and more angry. He realized that Shen Yichen had set a trap for him again.
"Don't bother with these bitches, just do it."
As he spoke, Li Da walked towards Shen Yichen viciously. He had now realized a truth, that is, if you can solve a problem with your fists, never use your mouth!
Facing Li Da's approaching step by step, Shen Yichen glanced behind him with the corner of his eye, but still could not see the shadows of Zhao Hongjie and Li Tingxiu. So now there are two very realistic choices in front of Shen Yichen, that is, either fight with Li Da, or turn around and run away.
Let's have a fight. Li Da's grandson is big and strong, and can be considered a martial artist. Without these advantages, he would not be the "boss" of the outer courtyard private school, and there is a high probability that he will lose in a fight.
If I choose to run away, I can escape the temple, but I still have to go to Chengguo Mansion to go to school tomorrow. And those who have experienced school days know that if you give in to this kind of "school bullying", you will be bullied in the future, which will cause endless troubles.
If the other party challenged him in a group, Shen Yichen would turn around and run away without hesitation, because he really couldn't win. But if it was a one-on-one fight, at least he could still lose the fight but not the battle, so the choice was obvious.
Fuck, what the hell is this!
Shen Yichen couldn't help but complain in a low voice. When others traveled through time, they all showed off all kinds of political schemes and tactics. When it was his turn, he wanted to use a clever trick, but the situation didn't go according to the routine at all. If he had known that he would have to do so many tricks, he might as well have hidden a brick in his book bag.
After all, no matter how high your martial arts skills are, you are still afraid of a kitchen knife. No matter how good your kung fu is, you will fall down with one hit!
Just when Shen Yichen felt that there was no hope and was about to fight back, a female voice like a silver bell suddenly came from behind him: "Li Da, you are bullying your classmates again, do you want to be expelled from the private school by the teacher!"
Faced with this sudden female voice, several people in the alley were stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously looked towards the source of the voice.
At the end of the alley, there stood a young girl in an emerald green skirt with a hint of anger on her pretty oval face. Behind the girl was Zhao Hongjie, who had split his troops into two groups earlier.
what's the situation?
Seeing this scene, Shen Yichen was a little confused. Didn't Zhao Hongjie go to invite the master? Why did he bring a little girl here? What kind of accident happened in between?
Just when Shen Yichen was feeling puzzled, Li Da was flustered when he saw the girl. He didn't care about the duel at all and immediately explained stammeringly: "Qingtong... Sister Qingtong, I... I... I didn't bully my classmate. I just wanted to have a sparring match with Shen Yichen... a sparring match."
At the same time, the fat white man Zhang Qi also hurriedly assisted: "That's right, the kind that stops at the right time."
"Who is your sister Qingtong? Li Da, how many times have I told you not to address me like that?"
"Also, whether you are discussing this or not, you know it in your heart. If you don't leave now, I will go and tell Mr. Li what happened!"
When he heard that he was going to tell the teacher, Li Da panicked even more. He quickly picked up the book bag he had thrown aside and waved his hand, saying, "No, no , no, I don't want to learn from you anymore. I'm going back now."
After saying this, Li Da glanced at his good friends, and they quickly disappeared at the end of the alley. It was just unknown whether he was really afraid of Li Tingxiu or the girl who suddenly appeared in front of him.
