Chapter 15
All things slumbered. The roar of the brook beneath the cliff grew clearer, and the sound of leaves rustling in the wind blended with the chirping of unknown birds. Mist enveloped the chain bridge, hazy and dreamy. In the distance, the sky was revealing a turquoise white belly, a faint glow of light.
“Crack!”
A slight sound mixed in with other sounds. Chu Huaiqin in the tent opened his eyes, quickly turned over and slowly opened the tent. From a distance, his eyes met Xia En's, who was standing opposite his tent. Through the dim light, the two nodded at the same time and turned over and walked out of the tent.
Office workers who are rushing to catch the subway get up at around six o'clock, and the first thing they do is turn on their computers to watch live broadcasts. It is not surprising that there are people chatting in the live broadcast room. In the entertainment era, there are many people who watch dramas, play games, and watch live broadcasts all night long.
"Boring! Someone wake them up! Bad review for the drone. After flying all night, why didn't they learn to fly into a tent? Don't other reality shows just show people sleeping?"
"That's a good suggestion. I want to see Chu Huaiqin and the little monk. I like them the most. I'll go give the production team a suggestion right now so that no one will be bored tonight."
"It won't be boring. I can listen to the sound of the stream for ten thousand years. You can't hear such a primitive sound in this big city."
"Are you all up all night? Great! I just woke up and have to go to work."
"It's already night so soon? I've been watching the tent all night. Strange, why doesn't anyone come out? Night, night, ah, they really came out."
The live broadcast room was drowsy, and he was still confused when he saw Chu Huaiqin and Xia Entang coming out of the tent at the same time.
"What's going on?"
"Ah, the little monk has come out too. He's hiding behind the tree."
"What happened? Did I miss something?"
The live broadcast room was instantly filled with comments, and everyone was guessing what was going on. Soon, someone with sharp eyes saw two men in camouflage uniforms appear in the camera. They were wearing black masks, holding guns, and walking towards the tent carefully step by step. In the bushes he passed by, Chu Huaiqin was squatting there.
audience:……
"Hi!"
A brisk voice sounded behind the two assassins. They were startled and just turned back when a fist came towards them with a sharp sound of wind. The man was so scared that his body stiffened and his legs kicked out instinctively. Chu Huaiqin moved his body and dodged in an instant, and his hand quickly grabbed the gun on the man's chest. How could a trained man have his gun snatched away so easily? Feeling that Chu Huaiqin was capable, he also started to take it seriously and started fighting directly.
The live broadcast room was stunned. While Chu Huaiqin was fighting with the man, Xia Entang also started fighting. The four of them fought fiercely in front of the camera. Not only were the people in the camp awakened, but even Director Huang who was far away in the command center was woken up by the staff.
"Director Huang," the stagehand gulped, looking at the five of them, including the newly joined young monk, fighting fiercely. He asked in a hoarse voice, "Did you specially choose Chu Huaiqin and Xia Entang?"
"No." Needless to say, the little monk came from Shaolin Temple and knew some martial arts. Director Huang was very clear about this. Director Huang also knew Xia Entang, who had practiced martial arts. Chu Huaiqin was pleasantly surprised. Not only did he know martial arts, but his moves were also very similar to Xia Entang's.
It is Jeet Kune Do, also known as JKD in the international community. It is a martial arts style founded by a generation of Chinese people and is famous all over the world.
Jeet Kune Do is different from other Chinese martial arts. Its moves are integrated with boxing and it is famous for its ferocity. When Chu Huaiqin kicked the man out with a flying kick and then choked him, everyone was shocked by the ruthless momentum. Everyone thought that this "assassin" would be killed, but they saw Chu Huaiqin change his fist into a palm and press hard on the man's shoulder, kicking him on the back knee and pinning him to the ground.
The man seemed to be frightened by Chu Huaiqin. He lay on the ground motionless and it took him a while to recover.
"Your martial arts skills are amazing. I didn't expect to meet a master here."
"Same here. I didn't expect Director Huang to be so serious about this, even bringing in a retired soldier."
"I'm also a fan of wilderness survival. It looks like there's hope today," the man sighed softly and gently touched his shoulder. "You're making me tired. Can you let me go?"
"Of course," Chu Huaiqin replied. He stretched out his hand and took the colored gun that was pressed against the man's chest. He turned around and said to Su Huaichen who was standing outside the tent in a daze, "Get a vine and tie him up."
Su Huaichen was happy and ran to cut the vines with his clothes on.
The man was surprised: "Really?"
"Really?" Chu Huaiqin nodded seriously. He sat on the ground with the man, watching the little monk and Xia Entang still tumbling with the other 'assassin'. He asked, "Are there only two of you?"
"I can't say."
“How many people are behind?”
"I can't say."
Chu Huaiqin smiled and said to Su Huaichen and Bingxiang who were carrying the vines, "Tie it tighter."
man:……
After Chu Huaiqin dealt with the man, he walked towards his sister and others and asked them to pack up their things as they had to cross the bridge first.
"Aren't you going to have breakfast?" Lin Yongfu touched his stomach.
"Once we're across, we can rest for a few days as long as we hold the bridgehead." Hadn't they been rushing along these days just to distance themselves from the 'assassins'? Now that they were catching up, there was no need to lie down. For the sake of the journey ahead, it was best to rest first.
One man guarding the pass, ten thousand men cannot break through. Lin Yongfu's eyes lit up. Rest, this is the word he wanted to hear most during his travels these days.
"ah!"
The man who had fought the little monk and Xia Entang was finally pinned to the ground. Su Huaichen and Bingxiang ran over with ropes and tied him up in no time. The little monk ran to find Chu Huaiqin, calling out "Brother, you're so awesome! You know martial arts!" from afar.
Balabala circled around Chu Huaiqin, and Chu Huaiqin kept responding to him with a smile. The picture of the two standing together was unexpectedly harmonious, and Xia En suddenly felt like he was out of place.
Walking back to the camp with a frown on his face, Xia En was lost in thought. After a while, he asked the others to pack up and prepare to leave with Chu Huaiqin and the others.
The live broadcast room was silent. Everyone sat in front of the computer, watching all this, as if they wanted to say something but didn't know what to say.
"Ahem, well, is Chu Huaiqin the incarnation of that thing, that thing?"
"Ahh, what is that?"
Someone finally spoke in the live broadcast room, but was still a little confused. He was a little dazed watching the people in the room hurriedly packing up their things.
"Where's that blood-sucking thing?"
"Pfft, are you crazy? Are you still not awake or are you too sleepy?"
"Ah, I think so too. Look, Chu Huaiqin is here again..."
At this time, the sun rose, the mist on the iron chain bridge dissipated, and the temperature rose. Chu Huaiqin, who was helping to pack up, slowed down, sweat began to flow, his cheeks flushed, and he looked lifeless again. Thinking of the previous time when Chu Huaiqin was so energetic and captured the retired soldiers, it seemed out of place no matter how you looked at it.
Everyone packed up their things quickly. The summer sun rose quickly and was hot. Chu Huaiqin walked to the bridge and touched it with his hand. It felt that the dew had almost disappeared.
"Aren't you going to untie us?" the two tied men said in unison when they saw them about to leave.
Chu Huaiqin glanced at the drone and said, "Someone will help you get rid of it."
Chu Huaiqin then told everyone to get on the bridge. The entire bridge was made of iron chains, without a single wooden plank. The chains were spaced about 5cm apart, so if you stepped on it, you could see the rushing stream below.
As the group approached the suspension bridge, many paled. Lin Zhinan and Su Huaichen were the quickest to react, their first instinct being to rush towards Chu Huaiqin, ready to seize his arm and lead them across the bridge. They suddenly turned around to see Xia Entang, who was holding Chu Huaiqin's arm. Chu Huaiqin, in turn, looked at Xia Entang with a strange expression, attempting to pull his arm away. Su Huaichen froze for a moment, while his sister, the quickest to react, seized Chu Huaiqin's other side.
Su Huaichen was a step late and gritted his teeth secretly. It was not easy to compete with the little girl, so he could only look at Xia En.
Xia En suddenly became alert and pulled Chu Huaiqin's arm even harder, holding it close to him. He said to Su Huaichen expressionlessly, "I'm scared."
Su Huaichen: ...
