Chapter 46: Impulsive Punishment
After hearing what I said, Xian'er didn't say anything.
But what she said just now was so tempting to me. I stood in front of the cabinet at the bedside, staring at my master's wallet.
At that time, I was just thinking about going to play, but I was worried that my master would discover the money.
I was stalemate with myself for a while, and Xian'er asked me again: "You said, your master wouldn't have heard what I said to you just now, right?"
I said, "I don't know, I'm not my master."
Xian'er was silent for a while, and then guessed very terrified: "No, Mr. Chai must have not heard me. With his personality, if he had heard it, he would have come to us long ago. Don't hesitate, take the money and run away!"
This time I really didn't hesitate. I took a piece of money from my master's wallet, but didn't see clearly what the denomination was, so I ran out of the hotel with my head down.
When I ran out of the hotel, I saw Senior Brother Zhuang driving back from a distance, but I didn't dare to say hello to him.
When I was about to arrive at the game hall, I looked at the money in my hand and found that it was a ten-yuan bill.
I didn't dare to spend all the money at once, so I spent two dollars to buy ten boards, found a machine without anyone, and started playing alone.
I have seen people playing here before. This game console is an airplane game. When I watch others play, I don’t think it’s hard. The person before only spent one coin and played it for a long time.
But when it was my turn, the small plane I controlled was blown up as soon as it emerged, and Xian'er said on the side that I was stupid.
Although she said it was stupid, I was still very happy when I saw the small plane on TV flying around as I shook the rocker and spitting bullets.
Because the operation was too poor, the ten boards I bought were quickly used up. At the beginning, I really didn't dare to spend all the money at once, so I just spent it one piece of land. But for me, those game coins seemed to be never enough. Often, I used all a few game coins before I figured out how to play the game.
In the end, there was still five dollars left. I felt that it was a spend anyway, so I simply bought 25 boards and the boss gave me five more so that I could come here often in the future.
In less than half an hour, these game coins were gone. When I played, I often died a lot. The robot on the same stage with me would knock me away, saying that my skills were too bad and it would often affect them.
I just walked between the machines. Every game couldn't be played for a long time, but I had to touch every game. Xian'er said it was a boring thing to watch me play games, but I felt it was very satisfying.
Indeed, it is very enjoyable to play, but when all ten yuan is spent and all game coins is used up, the little bit of pleasure in my heart is gone.
I began to worry whether my master would have discovered that I had stole money. Maybe he had come out to find me now.
The more I thought about it, the more I became scared, and I didn't dare to stay in the game hall for too long, so I hurried back to the hotel.
If my master really comes here, how embarrassing I will be!
But when I was walking on the road, I felt like my legs were filled with lead and I couldn't even move. But I still insisted on walking back. I had an experience of running away from home in my early years. I encountered flying zombies halfway through and almost lost my life. At that time, I thought that I would never do such a thing again in my life.
Along the way, Xian'er didn't say a word, and I felt that she was also very nervous.
When I returned to the hotel, my master stood angrily at the door, holding a half-open wallet in his hand.
It was obvious that my master had discovered that I had stole money. But my first reaction at that time was not guilty, but to blame Xian'er. If she hadn't encouraged me, I wouldn't dare to steal my master's money if I hadn't been tortured to death.
My master looked at me squintly, shook the wallet in his hand, and asked me, "Why is it missing ten yuan?"
I absolutely dare not lie in front of my master, so I can only say honestly: "I took it."
"What did you do with the money?"
"Play."
"Did you tell me when you took the money?"
"No."
My master's tone suddenly became higher: "You are stealing! How did I teach you? Where did your true intention go? Was he fucked by a dog?"
When the master spoke, he threw his wallet on my face. This was the first time my master attacked me.
I was really scared at that time and didn't dare to look up at my master's face. But when I saw that the master was trembling now, I knew he would be angry, but I didn't expect him to be so angry.
Seeing that I didn't say anything, my master yelled at me again: "What do you want to ask you? You're so bored!"
My heart was trembling and I didn't know what to say. I really don't know how to answer the question that Master asked. Where did my heart go? But I don't even know what my heart is.
At this time, my master suddenly rushed up. I thought he was going to hit me, so I was so scared that I quickly shrank my head. But my master directly pulled my collar and pulled me into the hotel.
The master walked very quickly, and he lifted me up to the second floor with my feet off the ground and my master took me into a house at the end of the corridor on the second floor.
This room is not for living. There is no bed inside, only a small shrine with portraits of the three ancestors.
My master kicked my thigh hard, and my legs became weak and I knelt directly in front of the shrine.
Just when I was worried that my master would hit me, my master really took out a ruler from behind the shrine.
As soon as I saw the thin and long ruler, my heart trembled and I quickly said, "No, Master, it's not me, it was Xian'er who asked me to take..."
Bang!
Before I could finish my words, the ruler fell heavily on my shoulders. I felt like my shoulders were cut open, and it hurt a lot, and a burst of pain came over.
My master glared at me angrily: "Say it again, who took it?"
"It was Xian'er who asked me..."
Another snap, the ruler fell on my back, hurting me and I felt like I couldn't even lift my waist.
My master pointed at my nose with a ruler and shouted at me: "Who took it?"
"I...I took it."
"Who is the hand growing on?"
"I..."
"Ask you again, who got it!"
"I."
My master was so angry that I was breathing, and his breathing sound became rapid. He held a ruler and shook it in front of me, while saying, "Your mother beat you before, but I was afraid that she would beat you up, so I persuaded you. I just deserve a beating! I stole things myself and blamed others for coming. Where is your true intention? Oh, where is it?"
I didn't dare to say a word, and knelt in front of the portrait of the ancestor with my head shrank, for fear that the ruler in my master's hand would fall down again.
But my master didn't plan to let me go today. I was scared, and the ruler fell down like raindrops, hitting my arm and butt, so much pain that I almost screamed.
But I was afraid that when I screamed, Senior Brother Zhuang would hear it and be embarrassed, so I gritted my teeth and didn't dare to speak out.
My master seemed to be possessed by my mother, and he beat and scolded: "I will let you steal something that is ineffective, let you steal..."
At this time, the door of the house was pushed open, and I heard Senior Brother Zhuang talking: "Uncle Master, Master Li from the corpse-driver lineage is here."
I endured it for a long time without saying a word, but I didn't expect that I was still seen by Senior Brother Zhuang. However, Senior Brother Zhuang didn't seem to care about my affairs, and said to my master again: "I've got the money and I'll put it in your room."
The master exhaled a long sigh and said to Senior Brother Zhuang: "Please trouble you, you go out first, I'll come later."
But just as my master finished speaking, another strange voice came from the door: "What's wrong, Lao Chai, I heard you scold and shouting, what's the matter?"
Listening to the voice, the person who speaks is an old man, and his age should be about the same as my master.
I heard my master responding angrily: "I'm punishing my apprentice, why are you here to do?"
"I don't do anything, just come and take a look." The man ran to me as he spoke. Only then did I see clearly what he looked like. He looked about the same age as my master, and the two of them looked a bit similar, both of whom had slender figures and wrinkles on their faces.
However, he is not as tall as my master.
He looked at me for a while and asked my master again: "This is your newly accepted apprentice. What's the matter?"
While he was talking, a small figure flashed from him. He was a boy who looked smaller than me. He was thin and handsome, and he was biting his fingers and looking at me timidly.
Don’t think about it. This child is not Luo Fei. Although he looks more feminine, he is indeed a man. He is the second life in my life - Liang Houzai.
As for the old man who came with Liang Houzai, it was his master, Li Liang. I mentioned before that my master had traveled to Guizhou to find descendants of the ancient Yelang Kingdom. The person my master was looking for at that time was Li Liang. Of course, Li Liang was just his pseudonym, and as for his real name, even my master didn't know.
Because Li Liang and my master have a life-long friendship, when I see him, I have to respectfully call him "Grandpa Li".
At that time, Grandpa Li and I hadn't had any interaction, and I didn't know how he was. I just felt that he was quite annoying, especially when he looked at me, there was a sense of joke in his eyes.
At this time, I heard my master say, "This kid is not a big man, he learned to steal things, and he angered me to death."
Grandpa Li looked at me for a while before smiling and said to my master: "Oh, it's normal for a child to make some mistakes. What's the case with you? You don't think about it. Just your strange force will break the child if you don't do it well."
My master said in a depressed manner: "I care about my own disciple. What are you involved in? What if your disciple steals something?"
Before Grandpa Li could speak, Liang Houzai, who was standing beside him, said in a low voice: "Bare to death."
