Chapter 120: Chapter 120: Courting Death
At eleven o’clock in the evening, the bedroom’s landline suddenly rang.
After the phone rang three tis, Chen Shouyi, who was practicing the Thirty-Six Techniques for Body Conditioning, stopped and glanced at Shell Lady who was watching cartoons without blinking, walked over, picked up the phone, and said in a deep voice: "It’s Chen Shouyi!"
"Co quickly and save ." The call was from Lu Weifeng.
Chen Shouyi’s heart sank: "Where are you?"
"I’m in the lower district on Shouming Street... Number 29, beside the public phone booth, I can’t hold on much longer... Rember, do not call the police, I don’t trust anyone right now." He coughed a few tis suddenly, seeming to have been injured.
Chen Shouyi hesitated for a few seconds, then said: "Wait, find sowhere to hide first, I’ll be right there!"
Then he hung up the phone.
Lu Weifeng was a martial artist from the sa class as him and was considered his closest martial artist friend; Chen Shouyi couldn’t let him die, and with his temperant, he couldn’t do such a thing.
Damn, is the Pantheon targeting Lu Weifeng this ti?
He stood for a while, a trace of killing intent flashed in his eyes, picked up his sword, and quickly left.
He walked quickly out of the community, flagged down a taxi, and as soon as he sat in the car: "Go to Shouming Street, Number 29."
The driver glanced at the sword in Chen Shouyi’s hand, made no comnt, and soon started the car.
Chen Shouyi’s expression was as calm as water, watching the lights outside the window rapidly recede; inside the car was silent.
Gradually, he cald himself down, held the sword, and began to close his eyes to rest. About half an hour later, he opened his eyes and found the car seed to be straying off course. He asked: "Driver, you took the wrong road, haven’t we arrived yet?"
"I’ve been driving taxis for ten years, Hedong’s streets—I could navigate them with my eyes closed; Shouming Street is in the suburbs!" the driver smiled and said.
"Then drive fast, I’m in a hurry." Chen Shouyi nodded, not suspecting anything, he hadn’t heard of Shouming Street before moving to Hedong.
"Alright!" The driver suddenly slamd the accelerator.
Ti was approaching twelve o’clock, and there weren’t many vehicles on the road.
The taxi sped along, slowly revealing large areas of unfinished buildings on either side. Before long, the driver suddenly turned the steering wheel, heading toward a construction site!
"Driver, are you sure you didn’t make a mistake." Chen Shouyi finally felt sothing was wrong and said coldly.
"Sorry, drank too much water and need to relieve myself, found a place, need to go first."
At this mont, Chen Shouyi keenly noticed, although the driver looked apologetic, there was a trace of a cold smile at the corner of his mouth.
An idea flashed like lightning through his mind, in an instant he understood everything.
This was a conspiracy, a plot targeting him.
From Lu Weifeng’s plea for help to the conveniently passing taxi driver to the dark construction site ahead, it was all a trap.
A strong anger rose from his heart.
Lu Weifeng, damn it, you’re asking for death!
Without a second thought, Chen Shouyi smashed the taxi’s driver’s seat railing with a hand, grabbing the driver’s neck, the driver suddenly let go of the steering wheel, clutching Chen Shouyi’s hand with one hand.
But that hand was like cast iron, completely unmovable.
"What a grand setup, excellently disguised, you’ve even deceived ." Chen Shouyi sneered.
Judging by his struggling strength, he turned out to be a martial artist in disguise.
"Don’t... don’t kill , I’m forced." A long cut made by a steel pipe appeared on his face, the flesh rolling open, blood gushing.
Full of fear, one hand desperately reached under the seat, where there was his protective short sword.
But before he could reach it, the next mont, an irresistible force ca over, the driver’s seat railing instantly broke, his body like a broken sack hit the windshield, rolling over a dozen tis, until the back of his head hit the wall with a thud, finally stopping.
He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his mind blank.
"Bang!" With a loud noise, the passenger door was kicked flying over ten ters.
Chen Shouyi with the Long Sword walked out.
That "driver
