Chapter 147 Breaking Out of Tiannan Town
"Cough cough..." Yokoyama coughed suddenly and looked in the direction of the voice. He saw that the person who spoke was a handsome young man named Ryuu-wu.
"Damn it! Where did this guy come from? Why is he talking so rudely?" After coughing, Yokoyama cursed inwardly, wishing he could punch the other man's handsome face to pieces.
But then he thought about it again. This young man had appeared with Xiao Chong, and judging from his tone, he clearly had a close relationship with Xiao Chong. So he became a little hesitant.
After thinking it over, Yokoyama decided it was best to confirm, so he pulled Xiao Chong aside and whispered, "Brother, where did you find this young man? Why have we never heard of him before?"
"Didn't you hear him call me boss? Of course he's a thug I hired!" Unable to explain Long Wu's background, Xiao Chong could only laugh it off.
"Hire?"
Yokoyama coughed violently again after being choked, and his eyes showed a "you're unreliable" expression as he looked at Xiao Chong.
Okay, even if I believe he was hired by you, what about the "thugs"? Do you think just anyone can become a qualified thug?
Moreover, I observed that apart from the long spear in his hand, this guy clearly had no trace of martial arts cultivation on his body. Why should he be a thug?
The more he thought about it, the more suspicious it seemed. Yokoyama asked in a low voice, "You haven't been fooled, have you? I think this person only knows a little bit of basic kung fu. You must be naive and have been fooled."
Yokoyama thought he had a sharp eye and kept his voice very low, but the young man, Ryuu, still heard him.
"Tch! You're ignorant. Today I'll show you what Fifth Master is capable of!" Long Wu completely disregarded Hengshan's doubts, merely scoffing as he stepped forward to face the two Mongol elephants in the arena.
Upon seeing the two Mongol mammoths, everyone was somewhat puzzled. Although it hadn't been long since Hengshan was rescued, it should have been enough time, yet the two Mongol mammoths hadn't launched an attack, and even the other wild beasts around them had temporarily stopped moving.
Originally, everyone's attention was focused on the suddenly appearing Xiao Chong and the handsome young man. Now that they had noticed, they couldn't help but wonder.
Amidst the puzzled gazes of the crowd, Long Wu did not raise his gun as if to strike, but simply turned to the elephant and let out a high-pitched roar.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, something strange happened. The two mammoths, as if startled, took a step back in unison and kept circling around in place, looking like they wanted to retreat but were unwilling to give up.
"They're really something! Those two Mongol mammoths are extremely fierce, they didn't even put Hengshan in their eyes, so how could they be scared by a little kid's long roar?" Everyone was dumbfounded, their mouths agape.
Even Yokoyama was speechless now, standing there stammering without being able to utter a sound.
In the silence, Long Wu saw that the two mammoths were only frightened but did not retreat immediately, and his face immediately turned ugly.
"Disregarding Fifth Master is courting death!" Long Wu roared, leaping to a mammoth and thrusting his spear.
The mammoth seemed genuinely afraid of Long Wu, and dared not confront him head-on. Instead, it turned around to dodge the spear and vented its anger on the onlookers.
Snapped!
One of the town's servants was unable to dodge in time and was struck by the mammoth's long trunk. He was sent flying backward and crashed into a dilapidated courtyard wall, clearly beyond saving.
"How dare you kill someone right under Fifth Master's nose? You really don't respect me at all!"
The shot missed the mammoth, but instead cost a man his life. Long Wu felt humiliated and his anger intensified. He raised his gun and chased after the mammoth.
Unfortunately, the elephant didn't confront him directly; instead, it kept circling around him and occasionally launching sneak attacks on the group.
Fortunately, with the example of the dead servant, everyone became more cautious, and there were no further losses.
Seeing that Long Wu was chasing him relentlessly like he was on steroids, and that no one could gain the upper hand for the time being, Xiao Chong felt that he couldn't let him play around like this. He should hurry up and escape from Tiannan Town.
In Xiao Chong's mind, Long Wu still often did unreliable things. What if things got complicated and Long Wu's so-called "dragon might" failed him? If such a golden opportunity was missed, everyone present would probably be crying in the toilet, and where would they find so many toilets then?
"Xiao Wu, stop being naughty! It's more important to get everyone out of here first!" Xiao Chong stopped Long Wu and shouted.
"I told you to call me Fifth Master, didn't you hear me?" Long Wu was so engrossed in chasing that he didn't even see who was in front of him.
"How dare you kill such a scoundrel! Are you getting too cocky?" Xiao Chong roared angrily, his face darkening.
"A good dog doesn't block the way, but you're blocking Fifth Master's path... Oh, boss? How... how come it's you?"
Long Wu was halfway through his sentence when he looked up and saw Xiao Chong. He immediately froze, and in his shock, he hurriedly nodded and bowed, unable to even speak properly.
"Who do you think you are?" The black lines on Xiao Chong's forehead deepened, and his eyebrows twitched violently, as if he was about to explode at any moment.
Long Wu dared not look at Xiao Chong again, turned around and shouted to the crowd, "My lords, follow me and charge out!"
Having said that, he didn't bother chasing the mammoth anymore and charged out of the mansion with his spear in hand.
"Damn it, 'all the nobles'? Do you think this is a play on stage?" Xiao Chong kicked Long Wu, sending him staggering.
Long Wu dared not look back, steadied himself, and ran as fast as he could. The others followed behind him, running towards the outside of the mansion.
Hengshan, who had recovered completely, hurriedly grabbed Xiao Chong and said, "Brother Xiao, my treasury still has a lot of Yuan Stones, treasures, gold, silver and valuables. Are we just going to throw them away like this?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chong slipped and nearly fell. He felt utter contempt for Hengshan's petty and greedy behavior.
What time is it? Who cares about those possessions that you can't take with you when you die? Escaping is the most important thing! Besides, your treasury is already spotless, cleaner than if it had been robbed. Where are you going to find spirit stones?
Therefore, Xiao Chong looked up, pointed at the large number of eagle-winged beasts circling in the air, and asked, "The cloud boat can't get out anymore. Does Brother Heng intend to carry those things away empty-handed?"
"This..." Yokoyama was at a loss for words and didn't know what to say.
"Stop with the fuss. As the saying goes, 'Where there's life, there's hope.' Brother Heng has a large and prosperous family; there will be plenty of opportunities to make money in the future. We can always find another one, right?" Xiao Chong pressed his advantage.
"Enough, enough! We'll do whatever Brother Xiao says, escaping is the most important thing!" Hengshan slapped his thigh and wailed as he caught up with the fleeing group.
But why was there a snicker coming from behind? Hengshan was filled with nothing but admiration for Brother Xiao, who could still laugh in such a critical moment!
