Chapter 202: Four Seas Catching Thieves
"Hey—Master, there's no one here!"
Sihai groped and found the arrow.
The arrow was there, but the sound just now was clearly a human scream.
But now there is no sign of anyone.
Sihai squatted down, his fingertips touched the cold shaft of the arrow, and he picked up the arrow with doubts.
When A Yue heard this, she looked away.
The wind blew by howling, and A Yue was just about to walk over.
Sihai's little hand held her.
"Let's go, Master. Maybe we heard it wrong."
Sihai shrugged and pulled A Yue back.
Xu Guining watched the two of them leave and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The next moment, an arrow came flying.
It hit him on the forehead again, and Xu Guining's eyes became blurry and he collapsed to the ground.
When Xu Guining heard footsteps, he looked up in panic, his eyes evasive, just like a cat that was caught stealing food.
"Great! It's you!"
Sihai ran to Xu Guining with his short legs.
The child shouted, startling Xu Guining.
"Tell me—what are you doing here like a ghost?"
Sihai's brows were twisted into a knot. He took two steps forward, lit the fire stick and raised it high. The dazzling light hit Xu Guining's face directly.
The child asked loudly, his childish face full of seriousness and vigilance, his eyes wide open, staring at Xu Guining.
He just noticed the movement here.
The kid is so young but his brain works very quickly.
Sihai felt that if someone was accidentally shot by him, he would definitely not hide and dare not let them find him.
Only those who have done bad things and feel guilty will hide like this.
So he shot the second arrow without thinking.
"It's sneaky, right? Can you read?"
Xu Guining stood up with his hands covering his head, speaking helplessly.
He hid so well but was still discovered by this little devil.
"Don't interrupt me. Why are you outside my house when it's dark instead of staying home? You must be up to something!"
Sihai said this angrily, and the three-headed little kid was just angry.
Xu Guining didn't care either.
Sihai looked around and ran back home with his bow and arrow on his back.
He ran and shouted, "Sister, come out quickly, I caught a thief!"
When Xu Guining heard this, he panicked and subconsciously wanted to run away but was stopped by A Yue.
"Big sister, please get out of here quickly. I caught a thief. He was sneaking around outside our house. He must be planning to take our house."
Sihai jumped into the house, rushed into the kitchen and pulled Xu Yiyi out.
Er Er took a look and greeted him.
"Sanchuan, come and light the fire. I'll go out and take a look..."
After saying that, he ran out with the harpoon in his hand, Sanchuan pouting.
He put out the fire in the stove, then ran out holding Wu Yuan and a lantern.
Er'er ran down the slope dragging the harpoon. He heard footsteps and turned around to see that it was Sanchuan and Wuyuan.
"Why are you here? Didn't I ask you to watch the fire?"
Er'er was shocked and wanted to go back immediately.
"I put out the fire."
Sanchuan pulled Er'er's hand and ran forward, while Wuyuan lay in his arms and screamed.
……
Xu Guining was naturally unwilling to be stopped by A Yue, so he turned around and was about to leave.
A Yue naturally refused.
He directly removed the man's shoulder, and the pain was so severe that he couldn't walk.
"Big sister, look, this is the person."
Sihai pulled Xu Yiyi and pointed at Xu Guining with his little hand.
The child now has someone to support him, so he speaks more confidently.
"Hey—isn't this 'Uncle'? Why are you running here in the dark instead of staying at home?"
Xu Yiyi clasped his arms across his chest and sneered at Xu Guining's painful expression.
Uncle A’s house is the closest, so Sihai shouts loudly.
As soon as he heard it, he ran out quickly.
When he saw it was Xu Guining, he slapped him.
"This bastard was still determined to steal. He came here this afternoon, but I caught him and he didn't succeed."
The uncle glared at him fiercely and raised his hand to strike him, but he dodged.
"Don't talk nonsense here. Is there anything wrong with me coming to my nephew and niece's house? You are pure slander..."
Xu Guining retorted.
"I'm not saying this to you, your uncle, but you really can't let a kid like Sihai play with a bow and arrow here. If you're not careful, it could end up like what happened today..."
As Xu Guining spoke, he still felt dizzy.
Sihai was unhappy when he heard this. "My arrows don't have arrowheads, so even if they hit someone, it won't be a big deal. Besides, the uncles and aunts in the Chen clan all know that I'm practicing archery with my master, so they won't come here."
Sihai mumbled something, and he didn't mean it.
Blown by the wind.
Xu Guining was so angry that he laughed when he heard this, and rushed to Xu Yiyi in two steps.
The redness and swelling on his forehead from being hit was glaring.
He completely disregarded his image. His hair was soaked with sweat and stuck to his cheeks in clumps. His eyes were wide open, full of anxiety and excitement.
"Look, look, look at this, is this okay? My head is still dizzy. This guy did it once, but he shot here again for the second time."
Xu Guining bent down slightly and put his forehead close to Xu Yiyi's eyes. The bruise was dark purple with blood oozing from the edges. He pointed at the wound with trembling fingers, and his voice rose several degrees with excitement.
"Oh, then I thought you were a thief! Who would be sneaking around here like that?"
Sihai waved his hands, somewhat unhappy.
"That's right, you were the one who acted like a thief first, and Sihai didn't mean to do that either."
The uncle said lightly, and Xu Guining took a look.
This is totally to protect this kid.
"I said I'm not a thief, I'm his uncle."
Xu Guining said in a hoarse voice.
"Alright, alright, uncle, it was Sihai who was wrong this time. I will definitely teach him a lesson later. Please be magnanimous and don't argue with him, or you will get sick from anger."
Xu Yiyi spoke lightly, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that Xu Guining had bad intentions.
"I was so reckless! The arrow flew straight at my head and I was hit before I could dodge. Isn't that infuriating?"
Xu Guining muttered to himself, feeling somewhat angry.
When he gets angry, he loses control of his words.
But he suddenly thought of something and changed the subject.
"Since he's my nephew, I, as his uncle, can't be too picky. How about this, let's just negotiate and just compensate me a little money and let it go."
Xu Guining's hand was taken back by A Yue, and he was now covering his head and crying out in pain over and over again.
Her eyes rolled around, telling Xu Yiyi clearly that it was all her brother's fault.
It would be unacceptable if I didn't pay compensation.
"Get out of here! How dare you say that? Since you're Sihai's uncle, how dare you ask for money?"
The uncle cursed.
I thought to myself that this bastard was really bad from the beginning and he hadn't gotten any better after all these years.
Now he is even more shameless and asks the younger generation for money.
"Look at you, Sihai. You've ruined my uncle's life. Hurry up and apologize to him."
Xu Yiyi smiled, turned around and said something to Sihai.
The child was stunned for a moment, then took a step forward with an apologetic look.
"I'm sorry, uncle. I was wrong. I won't do this again. Please forgive me."
The child looked pitiful and stared at Xu Guining.
"I'm sorry, uncle. Look, he's just a child. He's already apologized to you now, so don't take it too seriously."
Xu Yiyi said with a smile, looking directly at Xu Guining.
"you……"
Xu Guining was so angry that he was shaking. He was like this.
Xu Yiyi actually wanted to send him away with just a simple "I'm sorry"?
