Chapter 246 Adopted Son
Killing a horse with bare hands is a technical job.
It goes without saying that only a ninth-level warrior who has mastered Ming Jin can kill him with one blow.
A stronger martial arts apprentice can also do it, but it will take at least four or five punches to beat a strong horse to death.
As for ordinary hardcover men...it's better not to try such a difficult challenge. A rabbit will bite when it's anxious, and a horse will kick and bite when it's anxious!
And now, his horse was beaten to death by a punch from a half-grown boy!
Zhang Chu looked at the boy.
Judging from his stature, he was about thirteen or fourteen years old. His exposed hands were so skinny that they looked like chicken feet. It seemed that he was caused by long-term malnutrition.
He is very dirty.
There was dirt between his fingernails, the dirt on his face covered his skin color, his hair was in clumps, Zhang Chu could smell a bad smell even from a distance, and he didn't know how long it had been since he took a shower.
The big yellow dog in his arms is just like him, dirty, thin, and still shedding hair. Moreover, judging from the grayish white around the big yellow dog's beard, it seems to be an old dog.
Zhang Chu took a step towards him and asked gently: "My child, what is your name?"
The boy took a step back, bared his teeth at him like a dog, growled low in his throat, and his bright eyes flashed with threats and ferocity.
Zhang Chu stopped and frowned.
He didn't see the light of humanity in this child's eyes.
Instead, it reminded him of a rumor he had seen in a previous life: Wolf Boy.
The abandoned baby was raised by wolves. He grew up eating raw meat and drinking raw blood among the wolves. When he grew up, he behaved exactly like wolves...
"Big Bear, take a few people to the neighborhood to find out whose child this is!"
"yes!"
Da Xiong waved his hand, and ten Xuanwu Hall brothers followed him and walked towards the neighbors who were watching the excitement.
Zhang Chu knelt down and looked directly into the boy's eyes calmly, trying not to put pressure on the boy, "Bring me the cakes on the carriage."
"yes."
A Xuanwu Hall brother responded, turned around and climbed onto the broken carriage, took out an exquisite sandalwood food box, held it in his hands, and presented it to Zhang Chu respectfully.
Zhang Chu opened the food box, took out a piece of carved osmanthus cake and held it in his hand. He spread his hands and gestured to the boy with interest, "Come..."
The boy looked at the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in his hand and seemed to move it, but his feet did not move and he still looked at him warily.
Zhang Chu thought for a while and threw the sweet-scented osmanthus cake to him as if feeding a puppy.
The little boy still didn't move.
The big yellow dog in his arms moved.
The big yellow dog struggled from his arms and fell to the ground, limped to the piece of osmanthus cake, picked up the osmanthus cake, but did not eat it, but wagging its tail and picked up the piece of osmanthus cake back to the little boy.
, stretched out her long mouth to cup his hand.
The boy opened his hand, and the big yellow dog spit the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in his mouth into his hand.
The boy divided the sweet-scented osmanthus cake into two halves, stuffed half into Rhubarb's mouth, and the other half into his own mouth.
One person and one dog, the food was extremely enjoyable.
Zhang Chu looked at this scene and felt a little moved.
Sure enough, the more people you meet, the more you like dogs...
He took a breath, forced a smile and took out a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake from the food box, held it in his hand, and motioned to the boy over there, "Come here..."
The boy's eyes finally no longer looked so threatening.
But he took a step toward Zhang Chu and then stopped, still seeming a little scared.
The big yellow dog, on the other hand, walked up to Zhang Chu with its head and tail, licked his hand, then took the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in his hand and ran towards the boy in a hurry.
It’s still half a person and half a dog.
This time, when the boy was eating sweet-scented osmanthus cake, his face finally showed a smile.
…
When Big Bear came back, he saw the little man standing in front of Zhang Chu, holding the food box at home, grabbing cake after cake and stuffing it into his mouth.
"Master Chu, I found out that this child's name is Shitou. He was born with brain problems. His mother died in childbirth when giving birth to him. His father worked as a coolie at Beicheng Pier to raise him. In mid-November last year, he
Dad froze to death, and he was left wandering alone in this area. The neighbors felt sorry for him, and occasionally gave him some cold meals."
"Idiot?"
Zhang Chu just finished checking the child's body and sighed with regret after hearing this.
This child is born with supernatural powers and has extremely strong bones. He is a natural talent for martial arts training.
It's a pity that he is a moron...
Practicing martial arts requires brains.
Without brains, no matter how good your physique is, you can't achieve anything great.
Apart from that, I am not smart enough to understand the more complicated martial arts secrets...
"Hungry."
Shitou finished eating the last piece of osmanthus cake in the food box, threw the exquisite sandalwood food box aside, grabbed Zhang Chu's wrist pitifully, and pointed to his withered belly expectantly: "Hungry."
Zhang Chu frowned... He actually felt the slightest pain in his wrist!
How can it be!
"Go and buy some steamed buns."
Zhang Chu said without changing his expression.
"Yes, Gang Leader."
A brother from Xuanwu Hall pressed the long knife on his waist, turned around and ran out.
"Steamed bun."
Shitou's eyes lit up, and he struggled to speak word by word.
…
It wasn't until the brother who bought the steamed buns came back that Shitou finally let go of Zhang Chu's wrist.
Zhang Chu pulled up his sleeves, and Daxiong, who was standing beside him, was horrified to find that there were five black fingerprints on his eldest brother's wrist!
What did this child grow up eating when he fell to the ground?
He himself has also practiced the "Golden Clothes Kung" to great perfection, and he knows best how terrifying the defense power of the "Golden Clothes Kung" is after it is mastered!
Even the sword that I could strike with could not leave a single white mark, but the child could actually make five finger prints?
Zhang Chu looked at his wrist and secretly thought that this child's hand might have several hundred kilograms of strength!
He is only thirteen or fourteen years old now, and he is still malnourished for a long time...
This is true talent!
"Sure enough, when God gives you something more, he will definitely take something away from you!"
The more he realized that this child's talent was terrifying, the more regretful Zhang Chu felt: "What is this child's last name?"
When Big Bear heard this, he quickly apologized, turned around and walked quickly towards the surrounding neighbors.
After a while, the big bear came back.
"Mr. Chu, this boy is really close to you. His surname is also Zhang."
Zhang Chu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Then I can't even recognize this godson?"
This time it was Big Bear's turn to be stunned again, "What, you want to adopt this kid as your adopted son?"
Zhang Chu trimmed Shitou's messy hair and said, "Let's raise him as a godson for now. Anyway, he won't be short of food."
