Siheyuan: tomb robbing? I am serious about hunting.

Chapter 242 Silly Zhu is anxious

The autumn wind blew, blowing up a few yellow poplar leaves in the yard, swirling them on the gray cement floor. The red brick courtyard looked particularly bleak in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Yi Zhonghai sat on a small bench at the door of his house, holding a purple clay teapot in his hand, sipping it intermittently. The strong aroma of tea could not cover up the gloom between his brows. Ever since Chu Tian came to the steel mill, he has not had a peaceful life.

Chu Tian, ​​a young boy, has only been in the factory for a few months, but with his cleverness, he has been doing well in the workshop. Yi Zhonghai is an eighth-level fitter, a senior employee in the factory, and is respected wherever he goes. But recently, the factory leaders have been praising Chu Tian every other day, and even have the intention of promoting him. This makes Yi Zhonghai feel like a stone is blocking his heart, and he can't feel comfortable at all.

"Uncle, would you like some tea?" Sha Zhu walked over unsteadily, holding a lunch box.

Yi Zhonghai snorted and said nothing. Sha Zhu didn't care either. He sat down on the small stool next to him and opened his lunch box. A smell of soy sauce wafted out.

"Hey, I saved a portion of braised pork for you in the cafeteria today." Sha Zhu picked up a piece of braised pork with fat and lean meat and handed it to Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai then managed to force a smile, took the braised pork, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly. "This meat is not as fragrant as before." He said lightly.

When Sha Zhu heard this, he immediately became anxious: "How is this possible! I picked this specially, it's just the right amount of fat and fat, and the cooking time is just right..."

"I'm speaking from my heart." Yi Zhonghai interrupted him, "In this factory, Chu Tian is the most popular guy right now. He's praised wherever he goes. We old guys are almost forgotten."

When Sha Zhu heard this, he also started to have doubts in his heart. Although he was the head chef of the canteen, he also coveted the position of fitter. After all, the salary and status of a fitter were much higher than those of a cook. As soon as Chu Tian came, he stole his limelight, which made him very unhappy.

"Uncle, what do you think we should do?" Sha Zhu asked in a low voice.

Yi Zhonghai narrowed his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. "This kid is too arrogant. We need to teach him a lesson and let him know his own limitations."

"How to teach him a lesson?" Sha Zhu asked.

"I know a few thugs at the entrance of the alley. They're pretty good at fighting. Let them teach this kid a lesson. I guarantee he'll learn his lesson." Yi Zhonghai said sinisterly.

"This... isn't good?" Sha Zhu hesitated.

"What's wrong with that? If this kid continues to be so arrogant, how are we going to survive in the factory in the future?" Yi Zhonghai glared at him.

Sha Zhu thought about it and felt that what Yi Zhonghai said made sense. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll do as you say!"

After the two men had discussed the plan, Yi Zhonghai left to look for the hooligans, while Sha Zhu stayed in the yard, waiting to see what was to come.

As night fell, the courtyard was silent. Chu Xia came back from get off work and pushed open the gate, only to find that something was wrong. The courtyard, which was usually bustling, was empty today, with only the dim street lights casting long shadows on the ground.

He was a little confused, but he didn't think much about it and walked straight to his room. Just as he reached the door, several people suddenly jumped out of the darkness and surrounded him.

"Who are you?" Chu Tian asked vigilantly.

The bald man in the lead grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth: "Boy, someone paid us to teach you a lesson, so if you know what's good for you, just follow us."

Chu Tian realized that he was being plotted against. He tried to stay calm, looking around at the people around him, assessing his chances of escaping.

"Who asked you to come?" Chu Tian asked coldly.

"Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. Just follow us obediently!" the bald man said impatiently, reaching out to grab Chu Tian.

Chu Tian dodged flexibly and kicked the bald man in the stomach. The bald man didn't expect that this guy was quite capable, so he took a few steps back, holding his stomach.

"Brothers, go!" The bald man became angry and gave an order, and several people rushed towards Chu Tian together.

Although Chu Tian was quite skilled, he was outnumbered and was soon pinned to the ground by several people.

"Hit him!" the bald man said viciously.

At the command of the bald man, several thugs rushed towards Chu Tian like hungry wolves. A tall and thin man waved his fist and rushed to Chu Tian's face; a strong man with a face full of flesh raised his leg and kicked Chu Tian in the ribs; the bald man made a detour from the side and tried to lock Chu Tian's throat.

Chu Tian showed a sneer on his face, and he turned his body slightly, easily dodging the fist of the thin tall man. Then, he raised his right leg, and hit the strong man in the abdomen. With a dull "bang", the strong man flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, fell heavily to the ground, and groaned in pain while holding his stomach.

The bald man was shocked when he saw this, thinking that this guy was quite capable. But he was not panicked. His years of fighting experience allowed him to quickly adjust his attack strategy. He no longer attacked rashly, but instead walked around Chu Tian, ​​looking for a flaw.

Chu Tian was not in a hurry either. He stood firmly on his feet and scanned the thugs around him with sharp eyes, like a cheetah eyeing its prey.

Seeing Chu Tian so calm, the tall and thin man became even more angry. He picked up a brick from the ground and threw it at Chu Tian.

"Despicable!" Chu Tian snorted coldly, dodged the brick sideways, and at the same time took a step forward, grabbed the tall and thin man's wrist and twisted it hard.

"Crack!" The sound of broken bones was clearly audible. The tall and thin man let out a scream and the brick in his hand fell to the ground.

The remaining gangsters were a little timid when they saw this. They didn't expect Chu Tian to be so powerful that he could knock down their two companions in no time.

"Let's go together and kill him!" the bald man roared, trying to boost morale.

A few thugs hesitated for a moment, but still rushed forward.

Chu Tian sneered, and moved through the crowd like a ghost. He used both fists and feet, and each move was fatal, and each blow landed accurately on the vital parts of the gangsters.

In less than a moment, several thugs fell to the ground, wailing in pain. The bald man was also kicked to the ground by Chu Tian and couldn't get up for a long time.

In the corner of the alley, Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu were stunned. They originally thought that these thugs they hired could easily teach Chu Tian a lesson, but they didn't expect this result.

Yi Zhonghai was dumbfounded. He muttered to himself, "How come this kid is so good at fighting?"

Sha Zhu was also stunned. He swallowed his saliva and thought to himself, "This is bad. What if this kid takes revenge?"

Chu Tian dusted himself off, glanced at the hooligans on the ground with cold eyes, and said, "Go away. If you dare to cause trouble again next time, it won't be as simple as cutting off your hands and feet."
