Madmen don't keep diaries

Chapter 80 Can people be the same as cows?

It would have been fine if she hadn't said that, but now that she did, Feng Xiuhu would have to have a good talk with her today.

Feng Xiuhu assured the God of Mist that he had no intention of venting his anger on Xi Yaoer's behalf. He just wanted to explain the truth to Xiong Guiyuan.

He said, "Oxen are not born knowing how to plow the fields. They have to be whipped until they feel pain, and then they learn how to do it."

"So if even this cow can learn it, then why can't a human learn it?"

Xiong Guiyuan was almost confused: "This, this... How can humans be the same as cows?"

Feng Xiuhu spread his hands and said, "Yeah, how can humans be the same as cows?"

Xiong Guiyuan opened her mouth, not knowing how to continue.

Feng Xiuhu pulled her forward, and the two of them were almost face to face.

Feng Xiuhu asked her, "So are we talking about people or cows? Think carefully before you speak."

"What we were talking about, what we were talking about..." Xiong Guiyuan stuttered, her thoughts turning around and around in her mind, and she still couldn't figure out whether the lowly household should be considered a human being or a cow.

She was almost regretting coming here today.

After a long while, Xiong Guiyuan weighed the pros and cons for a long time before finally speaking: "It's... a person, right?"

Feng Xiuhu nodded in satisfaction and sat back down: "It's right that he is a human being."

"Then again, if cows can learn to plow the land, how can humans not learn to serve others? Don't you think so, Guiyuan?"

Xiong Guiyuan smiled and nodded, thinking that she would just accept whatever this crazy tiger said.

However, she didn't expect that this nod would cause trouble.

Feng Xiuhu asked again: "Now tell me, can you serve others?"

Xiong Guiyuan's face changed - why did they come back again?
She froze in her chair, slowly turning her neck and shaking her head: "Master Feng—Deacon, you're really putting me in a difficult position. I really can't…"

"Hey!"

Feng Xiuhu waved his hand and said casually, "It doesn't matter if you don't know how to do it. We can learn."

Xiong Guiyuan looked at him in disbelief: "Why should I learn this?"

Feng Xiuhu pointed at her and laughed: "The cow must have said the same thing before it was whipped."

"Xiyaoer, close the door!"

As soon as Feng Xiuhu called out, Xiyaoer responded immediately, trotting over and closing the door of the main hall.

"What's this?"

Xiong Guiyuan's face turned pale and she turned around to see Feng Xiuhu unbuttoning his belt.

Her expression changed again, and she stood up in shock: "Deacon Feng!"

Feng Xiuhu pulled her over and pressed her down on the table: "You still don't understand this principle. Let me correct it for you."

Xiong Guiyuan struggled hard, shouting and screaming - she came to visit today, and she thought Feng Xiuhu was one of her own, so she left all the guards outside the mansion, but she didn't expect this turn of events to happen.

Xi Yaoer was so happy to see this that she quickly pulled off her bellyband from her clothes and stuffed it into Xiong Guiyuan's mouth: "You are such a coquettish bitch. My master has the final say. I let you be stubborn so that you can learn a lesson."

Xiong Guiyuan couldn't shout out, and tears streamed down her face in anxiety. She scratched around with her hands, leaving several bloody marks on Feng Xiuhu's arms.

Even though Feng Xiuhu was very strong, he didn't want to be scratched by her, so he took off his tie and tied Xiong Guiyuan's hands with it a few times.

Xiong Guiyuan's struggles became quieter. Feng Xiuhu pressed her back and wiped the sweat from her forehead. "Wow—Guiyuan, you're really strong!"

Xiong Guiyuan lay on the table and sobbed. Although no one knew what she was saying, she was probably begging for mercy.

Feng Xiuhu comforted her: "Don't be afraid, I'll be gentle."

The hand pressing on the waist and back slowly moved down and stopped at the tailbone.

Despair was revealed in Xiong Guiyuan's eyes, and all the muscles in her body were tense.

Suddenly there was a crisp sound.

Xiong Guiyuan was whipped on the buttocks, and the burning pain instantly spread throughout her body.

Feng Xiuhu held up the belt and asked her, "Can you learn?"

Xiong Guiyuan was filled with grief and anger. She turned around and stared at Feng Xiuhu with tears in her eyes.

Xi Yaoer was also confused. She looked at Feng Xiuhu and said, "Master, what are you learning?"

"To serve others," Feng Xiuhu said confidently, "isn't this how you train a cow to plow the land?"

Xi Yaoer opened her mouth, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

Seeing Xiong Guiyuan remained silent, Feng Xiuhu whipped her again: "Do you want to learn or not?"

Xiong Guiyuan trembled all over and buried her head in her arms to prevent Feng Xiuhu from seeing her face flushed with shame and anger.

"Hey!"

Feng Xiuhu was surprised and said, "Guiyuan, I didn't realize you are such a man of steel!"

He changed his hand and whipped the belt towards the other buttock - snap!

"I'm asking you something!"

In his arms, Xiong Guiyuan nodded vigorously.

Feng Xiuhu whipped him again: "Speak!"

Xiong Guiyuan sobbed.

Xi Yaoer whispered, "Master, her mouth is blocked."

Feng Xiuhu slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, it's my fault. I forgot."

The belt tapped his back lightly. Feng Xiuhu said, "Being willing to learn is the right thing to do. It means the whipping wasn't in vain. But just being willing to learn isn't enough."

As soon as he finished speaking, he whipped her again and asked, "Plowing the land is a skill, and serving people is also a skill. There is no easy skill. Can you learn it?"

Xiong Guiyuan squeezed her thighs together, her calves trembling slightly, but she didn't forget to nod repeatedly: "Mmmmm--"

Feng Xiuhu said to Xiyaoer in surprise, "No wonder cows can learn to plow the land. This method is very effective."

Xi Yaoer laughed dryly and nodded in agreement: "Hehe, hehe..."

Feng Xiuhu was satisfied, and he personally helped Xiong Guiyuan up.

Xiong Guiyuan's legs were so weak that she could hardly stand. Her body tilted and fell into Feng Xiuhu's arms. Feng Xiuhu quickly held her steady.

The restraints had not been untied yet. Xiong Guiyuan held her bellyband in her mouth and looked at Feng Xiuhu with her watery eyes, a complicated look in her eyes.

Feng Xiuhu misunderstood this look and put on a serious face: "What do you mean? Do you also think I'm not smart?"

"Uh-huh--"

Xiong Guiyuan shook her head in panic.

Feng Xiuhu was satisfied again. He took off the bellyband that was stuffing her mouth, untied her hands, and reminded her, "Remember to study hard when you go back. I'll test your results next time."

Xiong Guiyuan's moist red lips trembled, and after a moment she forced a smile: "I'll remember, I'll remember."

She held onto the table and turned to walk out.

Feng Xiuhu called out to her, "That's it?"

Xiong Guiyuan's body stiffened and she slowly turned around.

The two looked at each other.

At this moment, Xiong Guiyuan only felt that the man's figure was extremely huge in her eyes, as if a mountain was about to press down on her.

The immense psychological pressure made Xiong Guiyuan afraid to even breathe.

After an unknown amount of time, Feng Xiuhu suddenly asked, "Are humans the same as cows?"

Like a drowning person breaking out of the water, Xiong Guiyuan suddenly came to her senses, gasping for breath.

He looked up and saw Feng Xiuhu staring at him with a serious expression.

Xiong Guiyuan quickly replied: "It's different. A cow is a cow, and a human is still a human."

Feng Xiuhu nodded, now completely satisfied.

He smiled and said, "It's not in vain that I taught you."

Xiong Guiyuan lowered her eyes, not daring to look at Feng Xiuhu again. Her voice was as soft as a mosquito's hum: "Thank you, Master Feng, for taking the trouble to teach me. I will take my leave now."

Feng Xiuhu waved his hand, and Xiong Guiyuan turned around and limped away.

　Sir, have you recommended my book to me today?
