Volume 1 Sleep Chapter 14 Strength and Vulnerability
When Chi Yu regained consciousness, it was already twilight. Xu Kai and Zhao Qingyun dragged him to a hidden corner after confirming that his injuries were not very serious, and the unspoken rules derived from the alternation of the old and the new for many years had long acquiesced in the occurrence of some things, as long as the perpetrators did not cross the line or were too blatant.
He rested for a long time before slowly tidying up his clothes and returning to the dormitory.
The bedroom was empty, and it seemed that Yu Zhihua and Xia Wei had a busy night tonight. Chi Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and most of his spirit collapsed at once—with his current physical condition, it was really not easy to hide from the world. He washed hastily and gritted his teeth and climbed into bed.
All night, Chi Yu was "tossing and turning".
The next day, the sun fell on the earth as usual. Chi Yu carefully hid the bruises and scars left behind, and avoided too much contact with Yu Zhihua and Xia Wei under the pretext of increasing class training, his behavior was no different from usual, only occasionally when he was alone, the face that became more and more resolute would show some melancholy and exhaustion.
Life still goes on, and the fresh changes have returned to the same round-trip reply after becoming more familiar, Chen Fan paid homage to Chi Yu after that encounter at dusk and stayed away, and even the invisible target with the hive side was mostly missing, which made Chi Yu a lot more relaxed, and the focus was deflected to the arena by one more point.
Ever since he had a "contact" with the ghost harrier, Chi Yu has been looking forward to him continuing to pay attention to himself, and it is not much different from his guess, his last unintentional move was really to take over Liangzi. Whenever Chi Yu is not paying attention, the ghost harrier will "repeat the old trick", although every time Chi Yu only has a strange tremor, but judging from the reactions of the fighters, this guy purely regards himself as a play used to have fun in everyone's boring training life, because every time Chi Yu will be turned upside down, there is no need to imagine it, he knows how ridiculous that action like Wang Ba is.
Chi Yu didn't dare to be angry, and he didn't dare to speak, and then he began to pay attention to the ghost harrier's movements, he pretended to be as intoxicated as the big guys, but in fact, he kept peeping, and when the ghost harrier's hand moved, he immediately quickly turned away.
Chi Yu originally wanted to run away directly, but it still looked a little embarrassed, only by dodging this "attack" could he get his field back, maybe he would be impressed by the ghost harrier because of this?
But he didn't make a wishful thinking this time, the ghost harrier's movements did not pause, and it was even more arbitrary and smooth than before, and that flick of his fingers seemed to have already figured out where Chi Yu was dodging. It's not so much a hit, it's better to say that Chi Yu sent his head up.
Unsurprisingly, he was on all fours again, but Ji Yu felt even more inexplicable than the first time.
So in the days of stealing teachers in the arena, in addition to following the daily training process of the fighters, Chi Yu had another "cultivation". Whenever there was no class to teach, the ghost harrier would compete with him, from only flicking his finger at the beginning, to becoming "outrageous" later.
Not only did the number of attacks increase, but it also patronized all parts of his body, and often at this time, the fighters had no intention of training, and they all rolled back and forth with laughter. Ji Yu was like a hairy monkey, babbling and jumping up and down on the ground.
That's it, compared to others. Ji Yu's life is like a white cloth stuffed into a large dye vat, soaked into colorful colors.
It's just that there's a touch of gray in it, which is much thicker than the others.
Zhou Yi, who had been quiet for a while, once again set his eyes on him, and Chi Yu had to toss and turn between concealment, pretending and confrontation for this.
There is always only one key point in the lie, and that is to go out of the way.
Chi Yu, who is not very good at lying, worked very this, but this time Zhou Yi, who didn't know why he had intensified, completely disrupted his rhythm.
Bullies began to appear in the dormitory frequently, and he no longer disdained to use the methods used to secretly stumble, but blatantly found fault and bullied, anytime, anywhere, for no reason. Several times Xia Wei couldn't help but stand up for Chi Yu, but instead of being annoyed, he was extremely happy because of it, and shouted excitedly: "Come on, do it, it should be like this!"
In the end, Xia Wei was half based on the persuasion of Yu Zhihua and Chi Yu, and half thought that this bastard might have lost his mind and was not normal, so he just made some verbal warnings.
But Zhou Yi didn't care at all, those compromises and anger control and forbearance all turned into ridiculous performances in his eyes, and he expected that all the disguises of this world would be torn apart in an instant, and everyone would show their true colors.
But his expectations were disappointed once again, and Ji Yu went out earlier and returned late from then on, even most of the time in the dormitory, only alone with him. And at this time, Zhou Yi will see the look on Chi Yu's face that makes him extremely hateful.
Inevitably, it was another beating.
And whenever Chi Yu felt that he couldn't hold on, he would think of the night far away in the river of memory, waving a dagger and rushing into the face of the young man in the arms of the gang boss, the joy of success and the determination of desperation, even the dark night could not hide it.
So, on the one hand, they are afraid of the rules and dare not really play hard, and on the other hand, no matter how many times they are beaten, they will not see half a point of submission and weakness, everything is like a vicious circle.
Until one dusk. In the shadows behind the stands of the drill field, Ji Yu was once again beaten to the ground, gasping for breath - after repeatedly unable to make Ji Yu give in to himself, Zhou Yi changed his strategy.
He no longer knows who hits Chi Yu every time, but restricts some strength and shortens the interval between provocations, only in this way can this kid who doesn't know the height of the sky and the earth be tortured by physical pain and mental oppression. But this kid is getting more and more durable, and the three-legged cat kung fu that he has learned is becoming more and more proficient, and he can force himself to show some embarrassment.
Zhou Yi smacked his paralysis, straightened out the messy clothes and left the place of evil.
Soon after he left, Ji Yu also dragged himself out of the shadows.
But he soon froze in place, clutching his trouser legs with his hands and muttering like a child who had done something wrong.
"I ...... There was no sparring opponent in the anti-striking training, so I deliberately provoked him, anyway...... Anyway, he didn't dare to kill him. ”
He quickly found a perfect excuse for himself.
Just a few steps away from Chi Yu, Xia Wei stood like a stake with a complicated expression.
If it weren't for Yu Zhihua's suspicions, his crooked head would not have thought that there would be such a person before and after Chi Yu, and if it weren't for witnessing Chi Yu's expression when he resisted, he would also be happy to believe that Chi Yu made up this reason.
He didn't intervene to stop it at the first time, because he didn't know what kind of posture he was going to use to face this out-of-town kid he didn't like very much.
"You...... Why bother? For the first time, Xia Wei was annoyed that he was not very good at speaking.
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt much!" Ji Yu jumped and grinned, as if confirming that what he said was true. But Xia Wei immediately saw his slightly trembling left arm, and the sensitivity of a fighter to limb coordination is like a healer's pulse, which is the key to their victory on the battlefield.
"Alright, don't be pushy. Xia Wei sighed and said, regardless of Chi Yu's wishes, he directly pinched him and dredged his stagnant qi and blood one by one.
After being forcibly supported back to the dormitory by Xia Wei, Yu Zhihua, who was rarely angry, straightened his face for the first time, and scolded Chi Yu for scolding, this denunciation conference did not end temporarily until they needed to go to work, and even Xia Wei fled away from this battlefield without gunpowder.
But Chi Yu was not half dissatisfied, that night, he slept extremely sweetly, and his dreams were full of flowers and bright sunshine.
After that, with Yu Zhihua's strong support, Xia Wei put forward a condition that could not be refused, and changed beds with Chi Yu.
Zhou Yi, who came back to the bedroom again to have some fun, saw Xia Wei with pillows in his hands as soon as he entered the door, his eyes were as sharp as knives. Zhou Yi couldn't wait to sing a song about it, but he couldn't find any gorgeous rhetoric to pile up his mood at the moment. He has finally torn off the mask of the man he hates, and all mortals, without distinction, will bow in the face of pain and offer everything that seems good.
"It's supposed to be ......," he shouted excitedly again, and then rushed towards his end.
That night, Xia Wei directly beat Zhou Yi into a half-"crippled", his methods are far more tricky than Zhou Yi and his ilk, these injuries are not incurable, two or three months later, Zhou Yi can be alive like a person who has nothing to do, eating, drinking and having fun has no effect.
Chi Yu couldn't stop it at all, even the weak Yu Zhihua poured out the strength he had never had before, and pulled Chi Yu aside with cold eyes.
On the third day, it was rumored that Zhou Zutu, the boss of the No. 4 and No. 5 ports, rushed into the mansion with a group of outlaws, and only a strange man wearing a bronze mask and a dark red cloak came out of the mansion.
The follow-up stories were varied, and the various versions were very exciting, but Chi Yu had no time to take care of them.
Because Xia Wei, who can be regarded as the most valued darling of the new fighters in the arena, was whipped, and the skin on his entire back was open, and the flesh and blood were blurred.
While giving him the medicine, Ji Yu couldn't help but burst into tears.
The manly Xia Wei slapped him on the head and said with a big grin: "Crying fart, like a girl!"
Yu Zhihua, who had long been accustomed to seeing wounds several times more terrifying than this, was lying on the bed and reading a book softly.
"Sometimes, I can be so fragile that I burst into tears at a single sentence, and sometimes I find myself gritting my teeth and walking a long way. ”
