Chapter 2020 A Hero in His Twilight Years

Li Dabai watched as Zhao Ritian stretched out his hand, getting close to him, his eyes wide open, revealing his dark face.

I hate it so much!

She grabbed his face and yanked it, gritting her teeth as she spoke, "That was before!"

"Ouch! It hurts, senior! Senior! My face..."

Li Dabai released him: "Hey, that's enough! I'm one of the Five Elders, give me some face!"

Xiaoli and Lao Zu were laughing so hard they were almost out of breath.

Rose kept asking questions; she was very interested.

Now, Xiaoli and the old man are having a good chat!

Lu Chengwen continued playing: "There's more!"

Xiaoli clutched her stomach: "Let it out, quick, let it out, hahaha..."

Li Dabai said, "Cheng Wen, have some decency for me..."

Even the old medicine man couldn't help but laugh: "Release him, Cheng Wen is fine. Since things are already like this, let the world get to know Li Dabai again, hahaha!"

"okay!"

then:

"Comparing himself to that old medicine pot in alchemy, does he even know how to make pills? He knows nothing! Right! He farted into that old medicine pot's alchemy furnace, and the fart caught fire, burning a huge hole in his pants and burning his buttocks red. He couldn't sit on a stool for half a month. Did he tell you about this?"

"No, no."

"Of course he didn't! The old medicine maker kindly gave him a plaster and told him to put it on, saying he'd be better that day. But he insisted he was fine and wanted to make his own medicine. As a result, he picked the wrong two ingredients, and after taking it, he had diarrhea and pus coming out of his anus, which smeared all over the old medicine maker's kang (heated brick bed) in the west wing. He didn't tell you about this, did he?"

The situation is out of control.

Several veteran martial arts artists who were previously dignified, composed, and highly respected have now completely let loose.

Some were slapping the table in laughter, others were roaring with laughter, some were crying tears of joy, and still others had stomach aches...

Not to mention them, everyone at the banquet was laughing because of what they did.

There was no one who didn't laugh.

Moreover, these elderly people started talking non-stop, bringing up many romantic escapades and funny incidents from their youth.

Li Dabai covered his forehead and lay face down on the table.

After a long while, he raised his head and pulled Rose along, saying, "Rose, listen to me..."

"Oh, I'm busy, I'm busy."

Rose pushed him away and leaned closer to the old man: "And then what happened?"

The old man chuckled and said, "Later, when we talked about having barbecue, Li Dabai said he was going to get the meat, but actually he meant to steal it. It turned out the place belonged to a local bully, and the bully's wife was promiscuous; she and Li Dabai started an affair. While Li Dabai was out there having his fun, we waited and waited for the meat, but it never came. We were starving..."

Xiaoli chuckled: "Turns out that the woman wasn't clean. When Li Dabai came back, his crotch was swollen, and he even covered it with clothes, thinking we wouldn't notice."

The old fisherman said, "He went to the old medicine doctor for treatment, but the old medicine doctor looked down on his approach and scared him, saying it was a terminal illness. Unless he cut himself open. And then...and then...and then...hahaha..."

"As a result, he secretly went to the backyard in the middle of the night, took off his pants, brandished the knife, but didn't dare to do it, and cried sobbing... Hahahaha..." Antarctica laughed so hard he almost fell over.

The old herbalist nodded with a happy expression, completely agreeing.

Zhao Ritian looked at Long Aotian and said, "You should learn from Senior Da Bai. He almost made up his mind once too."

……

While a group of elderly people were telling stories, Jiang Shang secretly called his sons together.

Jiang Shang said, "I'm going to fight that rat in a bit. If anything happens, leave the family matters to Bo Zheng. Shan'er, Zheng'er, you must do your best to assist your elder brother."

Jiang Yuanshan was taken aback: "Father, why do you say that? It's just a rat. If we all attack it together, what can it do?"

"Hey, so many people are watching. I'll give it a try first, and we'll see if it works. Remember, you all need to assess the situation carefully and not embarrass the Jiang family."

Jiang Yuanzheng asked, "Isn't there any other way?"

Jiang Shang laughed and said, "He might not necessarily be able to beat me without a doubt. I'm just letting you know in advance so you can be mentally prepared. I'm just saying in case."

Jiang Bo clenched his fists: "Father, don't pay any attention to him. I'll go and fight him again!"

Jiang Shang shook his head: "You are the future head of the Jiang family, and you can't take any more risks. If I can't handle it, I'm sure the Fifth Elder will intervene. He has to protect me at least."

Jiang Yuanzheng was very serious at this moment: "In a battle of this level, the slightest difference can lead to a huge loss. A small detail could... Father, let's not worry about saving face. There are many of us in the Jiang family, so we can use our numbers to bully the few."

"Nonsense!" Jiang Shang said, "So many people are watching! I'll say it again, if anything happens to me, the burden of the family will fall on you. That rat... that damned rat, I never imagined it was so strong. Could today be the turning point for the Jiang family's decline?"

Jiang Shang was stunned for a moment, then suddenly came to his senses: "Oh, I'm sure there's a high probability that there won't be any problems. You all go and make preparations, don't neglect the guests."

The entire Jiang family was heavy-hearted.

Jiang Bo gave a brief description, and Jiang Shang felt even more that this person was unfathomable and was a formidable opponent he had never encountered before!

I never imagined that as I've grown old, the real test has only just begun.

Jiang Shang was already prepared. Even if he had to risk his life to fight the other side, it would be worth it as long as he could protect the reputation and face of the Jiang family.

The subordinates fitted Jiang Shang with soft armor, checked his clothes and accessories, and inspected his weapons again.

Jiang Shang suddenly realized that he hadn't really made a move in many years.

Holding his familiar weapon, he felt a surge of emotion.

The general has been retired for many years, his temples are white and his bones are withered.

Even an old steed retains its heroic spirit; it can still fight and return victorious.

Jiang Shang looked at his treasured sword and gave a bitter smile. The smile quickly disappeared, and his face became frighteningly serious. Two fierce glints shot out from his eyes, and his domineering aura was instantly revealed.

He strode towards the outer hall, pushed open the door, and sunlight streamed in, bathing him in its warmth.

The wind blew up his beard and sideburns, and a few strands of pale hair fluttered gently in the breeze.

The general has been out of armor for many years, but the steel blade in his hand is still intact!

Heroes have never feared tigers and leopards, even if it means sharing the death with you!

Jiang Shang straightened his chest and raised his head, laughed loudly three times, and walked out. The surrounding guests all bowed to him, and Jiang Shang greeted them one by one with a smile.

What heroic spirit! So full of boundless pride!

But the Jiang family's hearts sank; they knew very well that the old man was going to risk his life.

Jiang Bo was heartbroken. If he were strong enough, why would his father need to make such a tragic entrance?

Jiang Bo was furious with that stinky rat; he was so angry he wanted to grind his teeth!

He turned to look at Jiang Yuanshan and Jiang Yuanzheng and gave them a wink.

That means, you have no shame!

If their father were to falter even slightly, the three brothers would rather the Jiang family lose face than let their father fall apart.

Jiang Yuanshan and Jiang Yuanzheng shared the same sentiment.

Screw reputation!

In this life, I only have one father! How could I possibly fight to the death with a mere rat?!

……

In another corner, President Lu also made his move.
