He accidentally bumped into the witch while flying on his sword.

"What happened?"

“Rui Ge, he…he…”

Seeing Zhang Chi's anxious appearance, Chen Shun also sensed that something was wrong and quickly opened his divine sense.

Sure enough, Wang Rui was being dragged by the collar by a burly, dark-skinned man into a secluded corner.

Chen Shun's eyes immediately turned cold, and the audio information transmitted back by his divine sense made him clench his fists.

The burly, dark-skinned man said, "It's normal to apologize after hitting someone, right?"

Wang Rui stammered, "Brother, didn't I already apologize to you?"

The burly, dark-skinned man: "An apology? Can an apology put food on the table?"

Wang Rui gritted his teeth: "Brother, how about I buy you a new shirt? Just name your price."

The burly, dark-skinned man held up five fingers.

Each one is as thick and ugly as a carrot.

"Brother... five hundred is too much..."

"What five hundred? Do you think I'm a beggar?"

"Then... could it be five thousand? Brother, I'm just a poor student..."

"Fifty thousand!" the burly man roared angrily. "Fifty thousand! Did you hear me? If you don't have the money, call your family and have them transfer it to you! Otherwise, you're not leaving here!"

"Here are five large sachets for you, do you want them?"

A familiar voice came from that familiar figure whose back was to the rising sun.

"Shun-ge'er!?" Wang Rui was both surprised and delighted.

Chen Shun grabbed Yun Yi's leg and carried her slowly to Wang Rui.

The little witch was always on top of his head, her eyebrows raised, seriously yet cutely swinging her fists at the burly black man.

The burly, dark-skinned man almost burst out laughing at the comical scene.

"Where did this idiot come from... Go home and let your mom breastfeed your sister!"

Yun Yi simply looked at the other person with a cold expression and said in a cold voice:

"Go, let me slap him twice."

Chen Shun carried Yun Yi on his back and slowly walked up to the burly, dark-skinned man.

The burly, dark-skinned man chuckled: "You actually dare to come over here? Aren't you afraid I'll squash your sister?"

Wang Rui looked at Chen Shun with a worried expression, wanting to say a few words of advice, but seeing Chen Shun's cold eyes, he swallowed his words back.

Although he didn't know why, he had a feeling that this burly, dark-skinned man was going to be in trouble.

The little witch swung her fists with a whoosh, then spread her fingers and seemingly weakly slapped the burly black man's face.

===Chapter 233 It's reasonable for a witch to live in a castle, isn't it?

In the eyes of the burly, dark-skinned man, the extremely delicate little girl was about to slap him across the face.

He sneered, finding the group of young people both foolish and ridiculous.

This light punch was less powerful than even the soft, delicate hands of the cute girls in the club pounding their own chests.

Not to mention the vigorous scrubbing of the elderly men and women in the bathhouse.

If you slapped that on your face, it probably wouldn't even kill a mosquito.

A disdainful, mocking look appeared in the burly black man's eyes. Seeing the young man carrying the little girl in front of him, his thoughts couldn't help but drift back to twenty years ago.

At that time, he was eleven years old, and his nickname was Tie Niu (Iron Ox).

He met Erniu from the next village.

Children in the countryside are different from those pampered in the city; they are either skin and bones or sturdy and honest.

He, of course, belongs to the former.

Erniu is a strong girl.

The two, who were not many people of the same age, reluctantly became friends.

However, Erniu, who was two years older than him, was completely obsessed with the popular youth campus dramas at the time, and fantasized every day that she could one day become one of those country girls who successfully turned their lives around and were surrounded by a group of handsome guys.

The only person she might play with is Tie Niu.

She was skinny, and when she wrestled with him in the rice paddy after the harvest, she didn't dare to use too much force.

I'm afraid I might accidentally take it apart and then I won't be able to put it back together.

Erniu, who was poisoned by the surge of campus dramas at that time, suddenly asked him to carry her on his back one day.

He, who harbored feelings of longing for Erniu, agreed without hesitation.

……

That day, the sunset was fiery red, and the afterglow was absolutely stunning.

Tie Niu collapsed in the rice paddy, secretly wiping away tears, vowing to develop an indestructible body and become a demonic flesh-and-blood man.

In his more than thirty years of life, he had never suffered such a great humiliation.

That sentence, that scene, even after all these years, still remain...

As dusk fell, Erniu, her face flushed, shyly turned to him and said:

"Brother Tie Niu, how about..."

"Let me carry you."

……

From that moment on, he trained like a madman, weeding, harvesting wheat, taking on any tiring job, sleeping later than a dog and getting up earlier than a rooster.

Because of his hard work, Tie Niu's family's harvest was 30% higher than that of other families.

Later, as his family became increasingly wealthy, Tie Niu went to the city and systematically learned how to build an indestructible body. His body transformed from a skinny monkey into a real iron ox.

……

Once, when he returned to his hometown, he found that Erniu had actually lost weight and become very beautiful. After helping Erniu's family harvest wheat, Erniu, who was moved, confessed her feelings to him.

He then realized that a person needs not only an indestructible body, but also an indestructible kidney.

……

Today, Tie Niu has become a local bigwig, running a well-known guesthouse on the beach and practically monopolizing all the rental services in the vicinity.

He was a big, strong man, and the local residents and tourists were not too afraid to provoke him, which made him even more emboldened.

I never expected to actually run into a bunch of simpletons today.

Would you really dare to slap yourself?

and many more……

"..."

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Tie Niu's mind.

Why did I just do that?

Will it bring back memories of that bitter and difficult childhood?

Why do memories from the past twenty years or so play on a loop in my mind like a movie in an instant?

It's like... a revolving lantern.

Tie Niu still remembered what the old man said: before a person dies, they will recall the past, even many details that have been forgotten.

He just remembered that after Erniu confessed her feelings to him, she gave birth to a big, healthy boy eight months later.

"Damn it... I had already forgotten about it! Waaaaah..."

"Wait... am I in a revolving world?... Am I going to die?"

His pupils contracted rapidly, his eyes widened, and as he stared at the soft little hand getting closer and closer, Tie Niu, who had been disdainful, was now terrified.

After this chapter, he'll kick the bucket!

Snapped.

A burst of fragrance.

It wasn't Xiao Yunyi who struck him, but rather the burly, dark-skinned man, Tie Niu, who, without anyone noticing, teleported to Wang Rui's side, chuckling awkwardly as he put his arm around Wang Rui's shoulder and back.

"Huh?" Looking at her empty hand, Yun Yi's small face showed a big question mark.

Perhaps because he had just failed, Yun Yi opened his palm and gently patted Chen Shun's face.

Tie Niu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his bones aching slightly.

God knows how much potential he had just unleashed to escape from that seemingly soft but devastating palm strike.

Looking at the little girl again, one can clearly see the distorted space around her, exuding an ominous and evil aura.

Who is this handsome young man in front of me? He was attacked by such a terrifying palm and he's completely unharmed!?

No wonder it could become her mount!

"Hey bro, traveling?" Tie Niu shook his head, forcing a friendly smile that made Wang Rui afraid to even breathe.

"Hmm..." Wang Rui responded.

"Hehe... I see you guys seem to be living in that seaside villa?"

"Um...brother, is there something you need?"

"No, hey, don't call me 'brother,' it's too formal! How about this, you call me 'Brother Niu,' and I'll call you 'brother,' okay?"

"..."

With a tearful face, Wang Rui thought Tie Niu was making fun of him, and quickly looked to Chen Shun for help.

Chen Shun, carrying the still-unsatisfied little witch, slowly walked towards Wang Rui.

With each step he took, Tie Niu's dark face grew increasingly grim.
