Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

When Liu Haizhong saw Yi Zhonghai being pointed at and scolded by everyone, the corners of his smiling mouth almost reached his ears.

"Cough cough!"

Liu Haizhong coughed twice and said earnestly: "Old Yi, as a neighbor, I have to criticize you. No one is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes. As long as you know your mistakes and can correct them, you are still a good child!"

"Pfft!"

When everyone heard Liu Haizhong say that a boy is a good boy if he can admit his mistakes and correct them, they couldn't help but laugh. After all, Yi Zhonghai was already an old gangster with gray hair.

When enemies meet, they are extremely jealous of each other. Seeing that the other party was teaching him as if he were teaching his grandson, Yi Zhonghai became even more furious.

Yi Zhonghai's eyes were bloodshot, his face was ashen, he pointed at his fringe and gnashed his teeth, saying:

"Liu Haizhong, you are such a sinister villain. If you want the position of a great master, I will give it to you. Why do you want to spread rumors to slander me?"

Liu Haizhong was stunned for a moment, then said: "Yi Zhonghai, don't bite like a mad dog. When did I spread rumors about you?"

"However, with your bad reputation, you are really not suitable to be the head of the compound anymore. I will unite with the residents of the courtyard to remove you from your position as head of the compound."

Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai looked at Liu Haizhong with bloodshot eyes and said sternly: "It turns out that you, a bastard, are stirring up trouble behind the scenes. I will beat you to death, you bastard!"

As soon as Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, he punched Liu Haizhong on the nose, and blood immediately gushed out of Liu Haizhong.

Liu Haizhong had never suffered such a big loss before, so he immediately launched a counterattack, raised his hand and punched Yi Zhonghai in the eye, and a panda eye appeared instantly.

Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong are both big and strong men, and they have been working as screwdrivers for years. They are both heavyweight boxers, and when they fight, they use real punches, so most people don't dare to get close to them.

In a flash, the two had exchanged more than ten moves. Because Yi Zhonghai succeeded in a sneak attack and seized the initiative, he became more and more courageous as the battle went on, while Liu Haizhong struggled to support himself, but was obviously at a disadvantage.

Several disciples among the fringe looked at each other and stepped forward to stop the fight. Their way of stopping the fight was not a normal one, but a biased one.

Several people held Yi Zhonghai's hands and feet and shouted, "Master Yi, stop hitting me. Let's talk it over..."

Liu Haizhong seized the opportunity and punched Yi Zhonghai in the face several times, causing Yi Zhonghai to scream in pain.

"You bastards, you only pulled me and not Liu Haizhong, you are obviously taking sides."

"Stop it all!"

With a roar, the comrades from the security department made a brilliant appearance.

Wei Dayong had a solemn and resolute look on his face, and he stood there with an intimidating presence without even getting angry.

"Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, you two are so brave that you dare to fight openly in the workshop."

Liu Haizhong said anxiously: "Chief Wei, it's none of my business. You, Yi Zhonghai, started it first..."

"Shut up! You think you're right to fight in the workshop?"

"In order not to affect the factory's production, you two come with me to the Security Department. Director Guo, you come too!"

The three did not dare to refuse and followed Wei Dayong directly to the Security Department.

As soon as he arrived at the security department, Wei Dayong slammed the table and angrily shouted, "Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, one of you is an eighth-level fitter and the other is a seventh-level fitter. You are both in your forties or fifties. Why are you still fighting like children..."

"It's you, Director Guo. People in your workshop were fighting, why didn't you stop them?"

Guo Piezi smiled awkwardly and said, "Chief Wei, this is not my fault. I just arrived, and everything happened too fast..."

Wei Dayong glanced at Guo Piezi, then turned his gaze to Yi and Liu again, "Now you two tell me what happened? Liu Haizhong, you go first!"

Liu Haizhong said with a face full of grievance: "Chief Wei, this is really not my fault. I don't know what made Yi Zhonghai so mad. He came up and punched me in the nose without knowing right or wrong. My nose is still bleeding!"

Wei Dayong turned to Guo Piezi and asked, "Director Guo, was it Yi Zhonghai who started it first?"

Guo Piezi nodded and said, "I saw it with my own eyes, it was indeed Yi Zhonghai who made the first move!"

Wei Dayong's tone suddenly became heavier, and he said sternly: "Yi Zhonghai, what's wrong with you? Yesterday's fight was also because of you, and today's fight is because of you. Do you have masochism? Do you feel uncomfortable if you don't fight for a day?"

Yi Zhonghai said in a stiff tone: "Chief Wei, I'm not a psychopath, why would I hit someone for no reason?"

"Yesterday, I was simply caught in an unprovoked disaster. It was indeed me who started the fight today, but I don't regret it, because that villain in Liu Haizhong was the one who spread the rumors about me!"

Liu Haizhong's face changed drastically, and he said angrily: "You are talking nonsense. When did I spread rumors? Stop spitting blood at me."

Yi Zhonghai glared at him, "Liu Haizhong, you are a despicable and shameless villain. You dare not take responsibility for what you did. How dare you say that you didn't spread rumors and slander my reputation for the sake of the position of a big boss..."

"Snapped!"

"Shut up, both of you. What do you think my security department is? If you don't know the rules, I will put you both in the detention room immediately."

Seeing Wei Dayong angry, the two of them immediately became obedient.

The security department of this era was not as easy as that of later generations. They not only had to protect the safety of factories and workers, but were also responsible for monitoring and intelligence, and even for catching spies.

Therefore, the security department during this period not only had solitary confinement rooms, but also interrogation rooms.

The factory security guards of this era are all veterans who have retired from the battlefield, and they all carry guns. Some factories’ security departments even have anti-aircraft guns. I just want to ask you, are you afraid?

Wei Dayong saw that the two men had corrected their attitudes and continued to ask, "Yi Zhonghai, you said that it was Liu Haizhong who spread the rumors. What evidence do you have?"

Yi Zhonghai said categorically: "Liu Hai has a motive for committing the crime, it must be him."

Wei Dayong said in a deep voice: "I am asking you what evidence you have? Not your motive for committing the crime..."

Yi Zhonghai said dissatisfiedly: "Isn't this obvious? What evidence do you need?"

Wei Dayong glanced at Yi Zhonghai and said, "What's so obvious? Don't make irresponsible statements without any evidence. Be careful that Liu Haizhong will sue you for defamation."

"Yi Zhonghai, I'm warning you, don't cause trouble again, or you'll suffer the consequences."

"Okay, you two go back to work first. I will discuss your punishment with a few leaders and inform you later!"

Liu Haizhong suddenly said, "Chief Wei, I feel dizzy now. I think I have lost too much blood. I want to go to the hospital!"

Yi Zhonghai said angrily: "Liu Haizhong, don't go too far!"

Liu Haizhong said coldly: "I went too far? You beat me up for no reason. Was it me who went too far or you?"

"Yi Zhonghai, you are just like Zhu Bajie climbing the city wall, blaming others for what they did. Otherwise, I would have made you bleed so much. Do you think you are dizzy?"

Yi Zhonghai said with disdain: "Then come and fight if you have the guts!"

"Snapped!"

"Xiao Wang, Xiao Li, lock these two people in the detention room immediately!"

Guo Piezi said anxiously, "Chief Wei, please calm down. The production task of the factory is very heavy right now. They are the technical backbone of our workshop. I beg you to show mercy and let them go."

Wei Dayong was silent for a while before nodding slightly.
