"Three days later, I will definitely pay a visit to the River-shaking Fortress!”This was what Chu Feng said to Jiang Shaobao before he left. Everyone on the streets of Hangzhou heard it clearly.
Three days passed quickly, and Hangzhou was still peaceful. No one cared about what a nameless kid said. Even though he had once broken Mr. Gudang Mountain's chess game, not many people knew about him. The River-Shaking Fortress would not change even the slightest bit just because of a single sentence from him.
For the past three days, Chu Feng had been recuperating behind closed doors at the Wangjiang Tower. Now, he had completely recovered, but there was an additional scar on his face. It was the finger mark left behind by Wei Di. He looked at himself in the mirror. Not only did he not mind, he even liked it a little. When he was bored, he would touch the finger mark on his face with his hand. He even felt a sense of familiarity.
In fact, although Chu Feng was handsome, there was nothing special about him. However, this finger mark made him look more resolute and tenacious. Coupled with his handsome and reserved eyes, he actually had a domineering aura that looked down on the world.
The River-Shaking Fortress was not in Hangzhou City, but in the suburbs. It was even a little remote.
Chu Feng was on the way to the River-Shaking Fortress because he had said that he would personally pay a visit to the River-Shaking Fortress. He walked unhurriedly, not only because it was still early, but also because he had already asked Manager Liu of the Wangjiang Restaurant how to get to the River-shaking Fortress, so he was not in a hurry.
On both sides of the road were endless weeds. This kind of grass was very special, almost as tall as a person. From time to time, birds would fly in groups in the grass, creating a different scene.
Chu Feng thought as he walked. That Abbot Hui Kong of the Tiger Running Temple was quite remarkable. He could tell with a glance that he had met with an undeserved calamity. As expected, the next day, he was humiliated and beaten up by the young master of the River Shaking Fort on the streets of Hangzhou for no reason.
As he walked, another flock of sparrows suddenly flew up from the bushes on both sides, squeaking in panic. Chu Feng's eyes flashed, and his body suddenly rushed forward. Two shiny sharp knives, one on the left and one on the right, slashed at the place where Chu Feng was just now.
Chu Feng turned around and saw that the ones who had ambushed him were the two Japanese female assassins who had attacked the green-robed woman by the Qiantang River. They were still wearing their warrior clothes, their faces covered, and only their eyes were exposed. The two of them did not expect Chu Feng to be so sharp. He dodged their fatal attack and slashed his steel knife horizontally, shouting delicately.
Chu Feng didn't dare to be negligent. He bent his body and let the sword pass him. With a clang, he pulled out his long sword and slashed it in the opposite direction. The two steel knives crossed and blocked the long sword, then split it into two and split it into Chu Feng's shoulders. Chu Feng turned his body sideways and barely passed through the two blades. It was truly extremely thrilling.
The two female killers were skilled with their sabers and had a tacit understanding of each other. Chu Feng quickly became very passive. No matter how clever his movements were and how agile his reactions were, he was still in a dangerous situation when faced with each fatal saber move. Several times, the saber light brushed past his throat. His clothes had been cut in dozens of places, and some of them were even bleeding. Fortunately, the wounds were not deep.
Chu Feng knew that if this continued, he would eventually be cut into pieces, and his thoughts quickly changed. The two of them immediately saw that Chu Feng wanted to escape, and they repeatedly shouted, their twin blades crossing as they slashed towards his heart.
" This is a good opportunity!" Chu Feng decided to take a risk. He suddenly leaned forward, his entire back almost touching the ground. Then, he hooked his heel on the ground, and his entire body passed through the layers of blade lights. Then, he rolled and entered the tall grass.
The two female killers also flew into the bushes and chased after him. Chu Feng withdrew his sword and used the bushes as cover to turn left and right, playing hide-and-seek with the two. The two female killers couldn't do anything to him.
As Chu Feng burrowed, he suddenly heard a rustling sound of grass being plucked, followed by two shiny sharp knives reaching out. Aiya! It turned out that he had been going left and right, and even he himself had lost his direction and had actually turned around.
When the two assassins saw Chu Feng suddenly charging towards them, they gave a slight grunt. Then, with a delicate shout, they slashed with their two sabers. Chu Feng rolled his body and barely dodged. Fortunately, the two of them had bitten him just now. Otherwise, Chu Feng would have been split into three pieces.
Due to the dense grass, it was not easy to use the saber technique. The two assassins waved their hands and cut down a patch of grass around them. However, Chu Feng had already darted into another patch of grass. He did not even turn around and giggled,"Come quickly, I'm here!"
The two female killers snorted coldly. They brandished their sabers, forming a net of sabers. Wherever they passed, the grass would be sliced away. They charged at Chu Feng with irresistible force.
Chu Feng was shocked. He knew that the two of them were going all out to kill him in one strike. He could only desperately move forward. The knife net behind him was chasing relentlessly, getting closer and closer.
" Whoosh!" Chu Feng only felt his vision suddenly become empty. It turned out that he had actually crawled out of this large patch of grass. In front of him was a wilderness with some tall trees. These trees were very special. They were very tall and straight, and they did not have any branches. Only at the top of the tree did they grow into a huge crown, looking like a fan.
Chu Feng turned around and wanted to hide in the bushes. " Whoosh! Whoosh!" The two female killers also flashed out. Two sharp sabers intertwined with a saber net and came straight for him!
Chu Feng didn't have time to turn around, he could only desperately retreat," Pow " his back hit a tree. A cold light flashed in the eyes of the two female assassins, and they stabbed their daggers into Chu Feng's throat!
Chu Feng saw the two blades stabbing towards him and in a moment of desperation, he shouted,""Stop! I know where she is?"
The ice-cold blade stopped less than half an inch away from his throat. Bean-sized beads of sweat oozed out from Chu Feng's forehead.
"Speak! Where is she?" The two assassins shouted in unison.
Chu Feng panted and pretended to be terrified as he hugged the tree trunk with both hands and said with a trembling voice,""Two…two great…heroes, can…can you move the tip of the knife a little first? I…I'm looking at my heart…I'm flustered.”
The two of them looked at each other. They were not afraid that he would play any tricks. They moved their knives at the same time. Unexpectedly, the tip of the knife moved. Chu Feng's feet suddenly touched the ground and his whole body bounced up against the tree. The two female killers snorted coldly and jumped up at the same time. They stabbed their knives.
Chu Feng's momentum was about to be exhausted, he had nowhere to hide and was about to die. Who knew that with his back against the tree, Chu Feng hugged his arms and legs behind him, gripping the tree trunk, and like a gecko swimming on the wall, he climbed up to the top of the tree with a few hissing sounds!
The two female killers were dumbfounded. One had to know that Chu Feng was climbing up with his back against the tree. It was many times more difficult than an ordinary gecko to swim up the wall, but his speed was shocking.
Chu Feng climbed to the top of the tree and heaved a sigh of relief."So this old Taoist's trick is so useful. When he taught me to climb trees like this, I laughed at him for two days.”
The two female killers did not dare to climb up, and could only glare at Chu Feng and shout,""Brat, if you have the ability, come down and fight to the death!”
Chu Feng proudly sat on the top of the tree and leisurely said,""Girl, if you have the ability, come up and fight! However, I don't think there's a need to make a decision. Your voices are delicate, and your bodies are exquisite and curvy. I can tell at a glance that you're female.”
The two of them were furious. How dare you tease us! Tell me, where is that green-robed woman? Otherwise, I'll chop you into meat paste!”
Chu Feng giggled." You don't have to be anxious. My memory isn't very good. I forgot about it for a moment." I'll tell you when I remember.”
"Humph! What is your relationship with her?"
"Why don't you tell me why you want to kill her first?”
"Sister, don't talk nonsense with him. I think he probably doesn't know either!”
"That might not be the case. In the end, I was the one who saved her from your knives.”
"Alright, as long as you tell us where she is, we'll let you go.”
"Hehe, I'm not as stupid as you!”
" You..." The two female killers were so angry that their eyes widened.
Chu Feng smiled," Hey, I heard that Japanese women are all very beautiful. How about this, show me your true faces. If you don't disappoint me, I can consider telling you."”
"Bah! Dream on!"
"Hey, tell me the truth, are you guys from Japan? Why do you want to be an assassin?"
"What does it have to do with you?" One of them shouted.
"Hehe, how is it none of my business? If your looks are alright, I plan to take you as my concubines. Of course, I have to know your background first. If you're not a woman but a sissy, then Amitabha.”
"You…"
The two female killers were so angry that they shouted and jumped into the air together. Their feet kicked along the tree trunk and jumped to the top of the tree. They waved their knives and slashed at Chu Feng. However, the tree was quite tall, and by the time the two reached the top, they were already at the end of their rope. Chu Feng wasn't in a hurry. He drew his sword and blocked to the left and right, easily knocking the two back to the ground.
They were unwilling to accept this and flew up again. They were beaten down by Chu Feng several times in a row, feeling angry, annoyed, and hateful.
Chu Feng was even more pleased with himself as he giggled.
The two of them suddenly bent down to pick up a few stones and raised their hands to throw them at Chu Feng like arrows.
Chu Feng smiled. Not only did he not dodge, he even kicked the stones that were thrown back. The two of them were almost hit by the stones that were kicked back, and they were in a rather sorry state.
"It's fun!" Chu Feng said excitedly. Interesting! Come on, hurry up and throw more. Maybe I'll tell you when I'm happy.”
The two of them stared at Chu Feng. They had no choice but to sheath their sabers and sit cross-legged on the ground. They closed their eyes and did not speak.
Chu Feng smiled again and thought, When I was on the tree for three days and three nights without eating or drinking, you were still drinking milk.”
He wanted to annoy them, so he shouted,"Hey! Your Japanese names are really funny. What's the second son of the small volume, the governor of Kawaguchi, the Chinese goji, the ploughing of the fields on the mountain, the planting of the trees at the foot of the mountain, and the Chi Zaoxiang, the original Koto Rixiang? They're all weird and messy. Sigh! Are you Curly or Kawaguchi, Ike Saaka or the original Koto Hika?”
The two of them did not make a sound.
"Your Japanese surnames are really weird. Inoue, Matsushita, Tanaka, Yamaguchi, Watanabe, and Kondo are all a mess. For example, the child born by the well was called Inoue, the child born under the pine tree was called Matsushita, the child born in the field was called Tanaka, and the child born at the ferry was called Watanabe? Sigh! Are you Inoue or Matsushita?"
The two female killers still didn't say a word, but their face masks fluttered, obviously suppressing their anger.
Chu Feng continued," I see that you are both pretty and delicate. You should look pretty good. It would be unfair to let you be concubines. If I let you be Furen, I'm afraid that you are not beautiful enough. It's a headache." How about this, you guys decide whether you want to be a concubine or a wife. Who will be the big one and who will be the small one? However, it is not easy to be my concubine. You must at least be obedient. Do you know what the Three Obediences and Four Virtues are? The third is to follow the father before marriage, to follow the husband after marriage, and to follow the son after the husband dies. Forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you. I see that you guys are so fierce and don't look like people who follow the Three Obediences and Four Virtues. Why don't you guys be little concubines for now? When we have an Inoue or Matsushita in the future, I'll make you upright…"
One of the assassins couldn't take it anymore. He stood up abruptly and glared at Chu Feng. He gritted his teeth and said,"Brat, you better not fall into our hands. Otherwise, we'll cut off your tongue and cut you into pieces!”
Chu Feng stuck out his tongue and giggled,""You better not fall into my hands, or else don't blame me for killing you and Matsushita.”
The two of them were furious and resentful. They stomped their feet and flew away.
Chu Feng didn't go down immediately and stayed on the tree.
"Stupid brat! Why are you still standing there?”An old voice suddenly sounded above his head. It was a little familiar. Chu Feng was shocked. He raised his head and saw an old man lying among the branches and leaves. His clothes were ragged. It was the old beggar who had called out to him at the corner of the Wangjiang Tower that day!
"Old man, it's you!" Chu Feng said in surprise.”
"Of course it's me. Could it be you? Dumb brat, why aren't you leaving? Are you waiting for those two girls to come back and catch you?”
"Old man, I'm just afraid that they're hiding nearby and waiting for me.”
"Stupid brat, what can you do if they cut down this tree with one slash? Don't drag the old beggar down so he can't sleep!”
Chu Feng was startled and couldn't help but look at the trunk of the tree. It wasn't very thick and indeed wasn't difficult to cut. Fortunately, the two killers just now didn't think of cutting the tree.
He hurriedly turned around and was about to jump down when he stopped and looked up."Old man, what should you do?"
"Stupid brat, you can't even tell that I'm here, but can those two girls see me? I can only sleep soundly when you're gone!”
Chu Feng thought for a moment and agreed, so he jumped down and hid in the grass. However, he did not leave immediately, but held his breath and waited.
Just as he hid it properly," Swoosh! Swoosh!" Two figures flashed over. As expected, the two female killers had returned. They rushed to the tree and raised their heads, but Chu Feng was nowhere to be seen! Looking around, one side was a wilderness, and the other side was tall grass. There was no one!
One of them stomped his feet in hatred and said,""I miscalculated just now. I didn't think that I could cut down the tree and let this kid escape! How infuriating!"
"Hmph!" said another. He wouldn't be able to escape there! Let him go today, we'll go back first.”
The two of them flashed and finally left.
Seeing the two of them leave, Chu Feng felt relieved and left. However, he was immediately troubled again. He could no longer tell north, south, east, and west. He was very confused as to which direction the River-shaking Fortress was in.
He walked east for a while and felt that something was wrong. Then he walked west for a while and felt that it didn't seem right either. Then he walked north…
