Chapter 13

Wei Xiaobao rolled over and pressed down on Xiaoxuanzi’s back, remembering what Hai Dafu had taught him, he reached out to grab the acupoint on his lower back. However, since he had never practiced the art of striking or seizing acupoints, how could he succeed in one attempt?

His hand was slightly off target, and Xiaoxuanzi had already flipped over, grabbing his left arm and twisting it backward.

Wei Xiaobao cried out, “Ouch, how shameless, twisting someone’s arm like that?”

Xiaoxuanzi laughed, “Learning wrestling is all about twisting arms, what’s shameless about it?”

Taking advantage of his momentary distraction, Wei Xiaobao used all his strength to ram into Xiaoxuanzi’s lower back, slamming his back into Xiaoxuanzi’s head. His right hand slipped through Xiaoxuanzi’s armpit and pushed upward.

Xiaoxuanzi’s body flew over Wei Xiaobao’s head and landed with a thud on the ground.

Xiaoxuanzi quickly jumped up and said, “So you know the move ‘Antelope Hanging from a Branch’ too.”

Wei Xiaobao didn’t know what “Antelope Hanging from a Branch” was, but he had won by chance and felt very pleased. He said, “What’s so great about ‘Antelope Hanging from a Branch’? I have many more powerful moves I haven’t used yet.”

Xiaoxuanzi said happily, “That’s even better, let’s go another round.”

Wei Xiaobao thought, “So you’ve learned martial arts, no wonder I can’t beat you. But if you use a move, I’ll learn it. Even if you throw me a few more times, I’ll eventually learn your techniques.”

Seeing Xiaoxuanzi charge at him again, Wei Xiaobao also lunged forward.

However, Xiaoxuanzi’s charge was a feint. When Wei Xiaobao lunged, Xiaoxuanzi had already stopped, sidestepped, and pushed him from behind.

Wei Xiaobao, unable to stop himself, was pushed forward and fell heavily to the ground with a thud.

Xiaoxuanzi cheered loudly, jumped over, and sat on his back, shouting, “Do you surrender?”

Wei Xiaobao said, “No, I won’t!”

He tried to flip over, but suddenly felt a tingling sensation in his waist. Two acupoints on his lower back were already being pressed by Xiaoxuanzi’s fingers, the exact technique Hai Dafu had taught him last night. Although he had learned it, Xiaoxuanzi had used it first.

Wei Xiaobao struggled a few times but couldn’t break free, and had to say, “Alright, I surrender this time!”

Xiaoxuanzi laughed heartily and let him up.

Wei Xiaobao suddenly tripped him, causing Xiaoxuanzi to stagger. Wei Xiaobao then punched him in the waist.

Xiaoxuanzi grunted in pain, bent over, and Wei Xiaobao pounced from behind, wrapping his hands around Xiaoxuanzi’s neck.

Xiaoxuanzi felt dizzy and fell to the ground.

Wei Xiaobao was delighted, tightened his grip, and asked, “Do you surrender?”

Xiaoxuanzi grunted and suddenly rammed his elbows backward. Wei Xiaobao felt a sharp pain in his ribs, screamed, and fell backward.

Xiaoxuanzi flipped over and sat on his chest, having won this round. He was panting heavily, exhausted, and asked, “Do you... do you... do you give up?”

Wei Xiaobao said, “Give up my ass! I... I... I don’t... don’t... don’t give up, not a hundred... a... a thousand times!”

Xiaoxuanzi said, “If you don’t give up, get up and fight again.”

Wei Xiaobao propped himself up with his hands, trying to spring up, but his chest was pinned, and he couldn’t muster the strength. After a long struggle, he had to surrender again.

Xiaoxuanzi stood up, feeling his arms were sore.

Wei Xiaobao struggled to stand, swaying, and said, “Tomorrow... tomorrow we’ll fight again, I’ll... I’ll make you surrender.”

Xiaoxuanzi laughed, “Fight a hundred times, and you’ll... you’ll... you’ll still lose. If you have the guts, come back tomorrow.”

Wei Xiaobao said, “I’m not the one without guts. Why would I be? Dead set, no backing out.”

Xiaoxuanzi said, “Alright, dead set, no backing out.”

...

Lin Yi ate his cake and watched the two boys fight, finding it quite entertaining.

In the live stream, the chat was buzzing—

“This must be some expensive actors, they fight like it’s real!”

“Exactly, they’re really into it!”

“The host is rich and can do whatever he wants. Does he need more actors? I’m pretty good at fighting too!”

“The host is eating while watching them fight, what a pervert!”

“Looks like the host has some special kinks.”

“The cake looks good, I’m hungry too!”

“Kneel down, shut up, open your mouth, and enjoy it.”

“You’re dirty, man.”

...

After Emperor Kangxi and Wei Xiaobao finished their fight and set another dead set, they said goodbye to Lin Yi and left.

Wei Xiaobao was glad he didn’t mention the gambling money, pretending to forget. If he had won, he would have demanded the money.

“Big Brother, let’s go!” Wei Xiaobao said with a smile, not forgetting to grab a few pieces of cake from the table.

“Sure, let’s go!” Lin Yi nodded, thinking to himself that Wei Xiaobao was still a troublemaker, always stealing and sneaking around, even though he had enjoyed the food earlier.

Wei Xiaobao asked, “Big Brother, are you staying at my place tonight?”

Lin Yi nodded and fibbed, “I’ve already told Eunuch Li, I’ll be staying at your place from now on!”

“Oh! Great!” Wei Xiaobao exclaimed, feeling relieved. He was scared of living with Hai Dafu, afraid that the old turtle might discover he wasn’t the real Xiaoguai and kill him.

Having a “big brother” around would be good for his courage.

Lin Yi smiled and nodded, walking out with Wei Xiaobao, thinking to himself that this kid was quite amusing, not understanding the palace rules.

How could the palace eunuchs just choose where to live? That would be chaos.

The two returned to Hai Dafu’s residence.

As soon as Wei Xiaobao entered, he said to Hai Dafu, “Eunuch, your techniques are useless, too ordinary.”

Hai Dafu snorted, “No ambition, you lost again.”

Wei Xiaobao said, “If I use my own methods, I might not win, but I wouldn’t necessarily lose. But your techniques are too weak, everyone knows them, what’s so special?”

Hai Dafu was surprised, “He knows this technique? Show me.”

Wei Xiaobao immediately rammed his elbows backward, saying, “He hit me like this, and I felt every one of my three thousand bones ache.”

Hai Dafu’s ears twitched, and he said, “This is the ‘Armpit Hammer,’ it’s not that special.”

He paused and said, “Let’s eat first. After dinner, I’ll teach you a few more moves.”

Wei Xiaobao nodded, helped Hai Dafu to the inner hall, and sat down. The table was already set with four dishes and a soup.

Lin Yi also came over and sat down, and the three of them started eating.

In the live stream—

“Is this old man Hai Dafu?”

“Yes, the new viewers, this old man appeared yesterday, playing the role of Hai Dafu!”

“He’s quite convincing, must be a veteran actor. Why haven’t I seen him on TV before?”

“Who knows? The host must have found him from somewhere. Money talks, no money, no talk.”

“Stop arguing, the host is eating again. Four dishes and a soup, I’m eating instant noodles, I’m jealous!”

“By the way, the host shouldn’t drink the soup today! Be careful, it might be poisoned!”

“23333, right, host, just eat the dishes, looks like there’s braised pork!”

“Kneeling for the host who gets braised pork!”
