Siheyuan: Sap is the last word

"Yudong, you just..." Shazhu wanted to ask something but didn't know how to start.

He Yudong smiled and said, "Brother Zhuzi, I'm fine. I just suddenly thought of something."

"What's the matter?" Sha Zhu asked curiously.

He Yudong smiled mysteriously, "The secret cannot be revealed!"

Sha Zhu shook his head helplessly. This kid was becoming more and more weird.

"By the way, Brother Zhuzi, how are your points accumulating?" He Yudong suddenly asked.

Sha Zhu was stunned for a moment, then he remembered the matter of points. He followed He Yudong's teaching and accumulated some points in the past few days, but the amount was not much.

"I saved some, but not much." Sha Zhu answered truthfully.

"It doesn't matter if it's not much, just take your time! When you have accumulated a certain number of points, I will take you to exchange for good things!" He Yudong said mysteriously.

"Good stuff? What good stuff?" Sha Zhu asked curiously.

He Yudong chuckled, "You'll know when the time comes!"

At this moment, the door of the tavern was pushed open again, and a burly man with a face full of flesh walked in. Behind the man were several younger brothers, each of them looked ferocious and fierce, and they were not good people at first glance.

The man walked straight up to He Yudong and Sha Zhu, looked them up and down, then grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, "Both of you, can I borrow a light?"

He Yudong glanced at the man without saying anything or taking out his lighter.

The man's face darkened. "What? You don't give me face?"

He Yudong sneered, "Who do you think you are? Why should I give you face?"

Several younger brothers behind the man immediately surrounded him, rubbing their hands, as if ready to take action at any time.

Seeing this, Sha Zhu quickly pulled He Yudong's sleeve and said, "Yudong, don't be impulsive!"

He Yudong patted Sha Zhu's hand, signaling him to rest assured, then turned to look at the man with a playful smile on his face, "Want to borrow a light? Sure! But..."

He Yudong suddenly stopped talking here, and his eyes fell on a thin figure behind the man. It was a ragged little boy who was hiding behind the man and looking at this side timidly.

He Yudong's eyes shone, and an ominous premonition surged into his heart...

The sneer on He Yudong's face made Sha Zhu's heart skip a beat. He had known He Yudong for so many years, but this was the first time he saw him show such an expression.

"Yudong, what are you doing..." Shazhu asked uneasily.

He Yudong ignored him and increased the strength in his hands. The little girl's eyes were filled with tears because of the pain, but she didn't dare to cry out loud.

"You little liar, who are you pretending to be pitiful for? Do you really think I'm a fool?" He Yudong's tone was cold and his eyes were as sharp as a knife.

"I'm not lying... I'm really hungry..." The little girl's voice was as thin as a mosquito and her body was trembling.

He Yudong sneered, "Hungry? I think you are quite good at acting! The tears come so easily, it would be a pity if you don't go and act!"

Sha Zhu couldn't stand it anymore and reached out to pull the little girl over, "Yudong, don't do this, she's still a child..."

He Yudong shook off Sha Zhu's hand and said, "Child? You know nothing! There are so many scammers these days. Who knows, this little girl might have been sent by some old beggar to explore the way!"

As he spoke, he took out a piece of silver from his pocket and waved it in front of the little girl, "Tell me, who sent you here? Tell me the truth and I'll give you a steamed bun!"

The little girl looked at the silver, her eyes lit up, but then dimmed again, "Really... no one sent me here... I'm really hungry..."

"You won't cry until you see the coffin, right?" He Yudong's eyes turned cold. He suddenly picked up the little girl and pretended to slam her against the wall.

The little girl screamed in fear, "Don't... don't kill me... I said... I said..."

Sha Zhu got anxious and grabbed He Yudong's arm, "Yudong, you are crazy! She is still a child!"

He Yudong threw Sha Zhu away and angrily said, "Get out of my way! Don't get in my way!"

Sha Zhu staggered and almost fell. He stared at He Yudong blankly, not understanding what happened to him today and why he seemed like a different person.

He Yudong ignored Sha Zhu and continued to interrogate the little girl, "Tell me quickly! Who sent you here?"

The little girl was so scared that she started to cry, "Really... no one sent me here... I'm just hungry... I want to eat..."

He Yudong was a little shaken when he saw her crying pitifully, but he hardened his heart when he remembered the system's prompt "Beware of scams".

"System, scan this little girl." He Yudong said silently in his heart.

"Ding! Scan completed! Target: Little beggar, age: 8 years old, identity: orphan, no threat."

He Yudong was stunned when he heard the system prompt. Orphan? No threat? Did he really misunderstand?

He put the little girl down awkwardly, and his tone softened a little, "Little girl, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."

The little girl rubbed her red arm and sobbed, "It's okay..."

He Yudong took out a few pieces of silver from his pocket and handed them to the little girl, "Use it to buy something to eat."

The little girl took the silver, said thank you timidly, then turned and ran out of the tavern.

Sha Zhu looked at the little girl's back and sighed, "Yudong, what's wrong with you today? Why are you so suspicious?"

He Yudong smiled bitterly, "It's all because of that system. It always reminds me to be careful of scams, and it makes me nervous."

"System? What system?" Sha Zhu looked confused.

He Yudong then remembered that he had not explained the system to Sha Zhu. He roughly told Sha Zhu about how to obtain the system and its functions, but of course, he concealed the method of obtaining "stun" points.

Sha Zhu was stunned for a while, and then he came to his senses, "So, you can really exchange for martial arts secrets and magic weapons?"

He Yudong nodded, "Theoretically, it's possible, but I don't have enough points now."

"So how many points do you have now?" Sha Zhu asked curiously.

He Yudong smiled mysteriously, "Not much, just a few hundred points."

"A few hundred points? What can they be exchanged for?"

"It can be exchanged for...a sturdy wooden stick." He Yudong said seriously.

Silly Zhu: “…”

He looked at He Yudong's serious expression and suddenly wondered if this guy had been fooled by the system?

"Yudong, are you sure you are not kidding me?" Sha Zhu asked doubtfully.

He Yudong shrugged. "Why would I lie to you? That's how the system is set up. Besides, this stick is not an ordinary stick. It has been strengthened by the system and is extremely powerful!"

Sha Zhu still didn't believe it, "No matter how much it is strengthened, it's just a stick!"

He Yudong smiled mysteriously, "You don't know this, right? This wooden stick, but..."

He was about to explain when suddenly, the door of the tavern was pushed open again and a burly man with a fleshy face walked in.

The man looked around, his eyes fell on He Yudong and Sha Zhu, and walked straight over.

"Which of you two is He Yudong?" the man asked in a bad tone.

He Yudong's heart skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition came over him. He looked at Sha Zhu, then at the man, and suddenly a thought flashed through his mind: Could it be that Qin Huairu's lover is here to cause trouble?

"I am He Yudong. What do you want from me?" He Yudong asked with a stiff face.

The man sneered, "What's the matter? You beat my wife, what's the matter?"

He Yudong sneered and put more force on his hands. The little girl cried out in pain. "Little liar, do you think I'm stupid? There are no beggars around here. I think you are a spy sent by Qin Huairu!"

The little girl was shaking with fear and said with tears in her eyes: "I didn't... I'm not a spy... I'm just hungry..."

He Yudong's eyes shone, and he exerted more force on his hands, "You won't tell me, right? I will teach you a lesson today on behalf of Sha Zhu!"

Sha Zhu looked at the pitiful look of the little girl and felt a little sorry for her. "Yudong, forget it, she is still a child..."

"Child? You are just too soft-hearted! Nowadays, there are so many children who lie to people!" He Yudong was unmoved and still held the little girl tightly in his hand.

The system's voice suddenly rang in He Yudong's mind: "It is detected that the host is slapping someone in the face, points +10."

He Yudong's mouth corners slightly raised. It seems that this system is quite intelligent and knows what it wants to do.

He was about to continue "teaching" the little girl, when suddenly, the little girl's eyes became sharp, and her originally soft voice became icy cold: "Let me go!"

He Yudong was stunned. The look in the little girl's eyes actually made him feel a little scared.

Before he could react, the little girl flipped her wrist and broke free from his restraints. Then, she slapped He Yudong in the face with lightning speed.

"Snapped!"

The crisp sound of applause echoed throughout the tavern.

He Yudong was stunned, covering his face, looking at the little girl in front of him in disbelief. This little girl was so strong?

The little girl looked at He Yudong coldly, her eyes full of disdain, "You think you can teach me a lesson? You don't know your own limitations!"

After saying that, the little girl turned and left.

"Stop!" He Yudong reacted and roared. How could he tolerate being slapped by a little girl when he was a time traveler?

He was about to chase her, but was stopped by Sha Zhu. "Yudong, forget it, don't bother with her..."

"Forget it? I must teach her a lesson today!" He Yudong pushed Sha Zhu away and chased after him.

The little girl ran very fast and He Yudong chased her closely behind.

The two men ran out of the tavern, one in front and one behind, into the alley, and into the courtyard.

"Little girl, stop right there!" He Yudong shouted as he chased.

The little girl looked back, a sneer appeared on her lips, and her speed became even faster.

He Yudong cursed inwardly, this little girl is really hard to deal with.

He was about to speed up to catch up when suddenly, the little girl stopped.

He Yudong also stopped and looked at her warily.
