“Where 
do 
you 
get 
off 
beating 
it 
like 
that? 
No 
animal 
deserves
that 
kind 
of 
treatment.”
His 
words 
were 
barely 
out 
of 
his 
mouth 
when 
young 
Yu 
screamed
furiously, 
“You 
again? 
What 
do 
you 
want!”
Instantly 
the 
two 
men 
were 
tumbling 
about 
on 
the 
ground, 
mule
dung 
and 
all.
The 
old 
gentleman 
next 
door 
had 
just 
finished 
dinner, 
and 
he
emerged 
from 
his 
house 
patting 
down 
some 
of 
Yu’s 
precious 
Changsu
tobacco 
in 
his 
pipe 
bowl. 
Witnessing 
the 
fight, 
he 
rushed 
over, 
but
didn’t 
dare 
try 
to 
separate 
the 
two 
men.
“Hey, 
you 
two, 
what’s 
the 
reason 
for 
this? 
If 
you 
have 
something
to 
say, 
then 
out 
with 
it.”
He 
began 
walking 
in 
circles 
around 
them.
“Talk 
it 
out, 
you 
two—huh? 
I 
said 
talk 
it 
out!”
