Chapter 143
Before Hua Jiunan could speak, Chen Daji strode over.
“Eighth Master, why don’t I try spraying you?”
“I’m telling you, I’ve been able to spit really far since I was little.”
“Once, I spat from several meters away and hit my dad right in his huge forehead. Ask him if you don’t believe me!”
With that, Chen Daji grabbed a large handful of dirt-covered pine needles and stuffed them into his mouth without the slightest concern for filth.
He chewed until both cheeks bulged round.
As he chewed, he complained indistinctly.
“Fuck, these things are bitter as hell.”
“They get stuck in my teeth too!”
Eighth Master Chang retreated again and again.
“Did you brush your teeth, you little bastard?”
“Don’t come any closer! If you dare spit on Eighth Master, I’ll fucking beat you!”
When had Chen Daji ever feared a threat?
Especially one from Eighth Master Chang. He treated that like a fart in the wind.
Besides, what was unusual about being beaten?
It was not as though Chen Daji had suffered only a few beatings in his life!
His mouth was so full that his words came out muffled.
“Ha! Chang Ba, where do you think you’re going? Taste this young master’s spray!”
With a burst of breath, he sprayed out a mouthful of crushed pine needles.
Before everyone’s stunned eyes, a miracle occurred!
For poor Eighth Master Chang, however, that miracle was a calamity out of the spit.
Under the hazy moonlight, the crushed pine needles transformed into miniature arrows wreathed in flame.
They whistled toward Eighth Master Chang’s enormous head.
Fortunately, Eighth Master Chang reacted quickly and moved with remarkable agility.
After shouting, “Fuck!” he flung the black pot off his head to block the attack.
Then he transformed into a gale and shot onto the roof, from where he cursed Chen Daji furiously.
“You conscience-rotted, smoke-belching little bastard whose farts turn corners!”
“All Eighth Master did was eat a few extra cases of instant noodles. Did you have to be so vicious?!”
Alongside Eighth Master Chang’s curses came an endless metallic clatter, as dense as rain striking broad leaves.
By the time the black pot fell to the ground, it had been riddled with holes.
Everyone’s eyes widened in astonishment.
Chen Daji, the instigator, was so frightened that he hurriedly covered his mouth. He did not even dare curse back at Eighth Master Chang.
He was terrified that he might spit out another lethal weapon.
As the saying went, no one knew a son better than his father.
Yet Chen Daji’s astonishing performance had clearly surpassed anything Chen Fu understood about him.
Only after a long while did the richest man in the region scratch his head and mutter to himself.
“Not bad, little bastard. Looks like you learned the Toad Skill along with the Seven Injuries Fist…”
Despite his grief, Zhao Fei-Fatty Zhao-could not suppress his curiosity.
“Uncle Chen, how do you know Daji just used the Toad Skill?”
Chen Fu answered without hesitation, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.
“Nephew, haven’t you heard the saying?”
“When a toad sneezes, it makes one hell of a blast!”
Fatty Zhao looked confused.
Was that really how it worked?
It seemed that once they rescued Fengmei, he would have to follow Hua Boss and learn kung fu too.
Otherwise, even paper figures could beat him senseless!
Hua Jiunan bent down, picked up the ruined iron pot, and asked Deaf Granny curiously, “Grandma, what happened?”
Deaf Granny examined the pot, then looked Chen Daji up and down.
“Tsk, tsk. I can’t understand it, and I can’t see through you!”
“It appears my second grandson is no ordinary person either!”
Faced with everyone’s stares, Chen Daji showed no joy. Instead, he covered his mouth and nearly cried.
“Grandma, am I really the reincarnation of a toad spirit?!”
Deaf Granny stroked Chen Daji’s head to comfort him, then glared fiercely at Chen Fu.
“Good grandson, don’t listen to your father’s nonsense!”
“With that big belly and huge mouth, he’s the one who looks like the reincarnation of a toad spirit!”
“You aren’t. Don’t worry!”
Chen Daji froze at Deaf Granny’s words, then grew even more dejected.
“Grandma, if my dad is a toad spirit, doesn’t that make me a little toad?!”
Fortunately, Eighth Master Chang leaped down from the roof and dispelled his worries with a single remark.
“Daji, stop letting your thoughts run wild!”
“Eighth Master doesn’t know what kind of thing you were reincarnated from.”
“But I know you definitely weren’t a toad.”
Chen Daji was overjoyed. “Why not?”
Eighth Master Chang chuckled.
“No one here is an outsider, so I’ll tell the truth.”
“Eighth Master was weak from birth. I couldn’t beat even a mouse, much less anything bigger than a toad.”
“So before I awakened my intelligence, all I ever caught and ate were fucking toads!”
“You smell nasty, Daji, but you don’t have that delicious toad fragrance…”
Chen Daji did not know whether to laugh or cry, but at least he could finally relax.
“Why, thank you, Eighth Master!”
