Zhong Kui's Diary
Lu Shaoyang was taken aback for a moment, seemingly not understanding why I would ask such a question. After a while, he slowly said, "Mr. Zhong, do you think the Lu Family only has this few people? We have tens of thousands of clansmen distributed around the oasis. If I can't capture the Golden Tent in time, my elder brother will trigger the communication mechanism inside, and those clansmen will know about the situation here. The only way is to lure him out of the Golden Tent. For that, I have to thank you; if you hadn't saved Lu Yue, how could he bear to leave the main tent?"
"I see," I smiled and no longer paid attention to Lu Shaoyang. I turned to the big fatty and asked with a smile, "Brother, what is your surname?"
"No need for formality, just call me Gao, Rich Handsome Guy. Gao is for Rich Handsome Guy's Gao, Fu is for Rich Handsome Guy's Fu, and Shuai is for Rich Handsome Guy's Shuai!" the Fatty replied with a grin.
"Are you ready?" I suddenly asked an inexplicable question.
The big fatty was momentarily stunned but then his eyes sparkled as he nodded.
I waved my hands, and two bolts of lightning as thick as chopsticks shot toward Lu Shaoyang and another man who was aiming a firearm at Lu Zhengyang's chest.
Knowing the power of my lightning, I naturally had to adjust the attack points slightly; these two bolts were aimed at their eyes.
This was also a gamble, betting on human instinct. No matter who it is, when something suddenly shoots toward their eyes, they will instinctively reach out to block it. Moreover, in most cases, the startled person will use their dominant hand to block; for Lu Zhengyang and his companions, that hand was undoubtedly the one holding the gun.
Of course, there was a risk involved; if these two reacted too violently, it could lead to accidental discharge of their firearms. However, I decided to proceed because human movements are sequential under instinctive drives—first twisting the waist, then raising the shoulder, followed by lifting the elbow and curling the fingers. Even if they pulled the trigger in panic, by that time their shoulders and elbows would have moved away from their original positions, causing the gun muzzle to shift as well.
The situation unfolded as I expected; both men instinctively reached out to block the lightning. The big man’s firearm went off with a bang, and nearly half of the iron pellets hit Lu Zhengyang's left shoulder.
Fortunately, Lu Shaoyang's gun did not misfire. Just as Lu Shaoyang raised his hand to shield his eyes, Rich Handsome Guy suddenly charged forward like a bullet toward Lu Shaoyang.
Uh, can I use a different metaphor?
He charged at Lu Shaoyang like a cannonball because cannonballs are thicker than bullets.
At that moment, I swiftly pulled out two Beer Bottles from the Mustard Seed Pendant, swinging them towards the two men holding knives and threatening Lu Zhengyang.
The two men were still stunned by the sudden attack and did not react in time. With a couple of loud crashes, the Beer Bottles hit them in the face. One man collapsed immediately, while the other let out a cry and instinctively covered his face.
As I expected, under instinct, a person will retract their most commonly used hand. When this man wiped his face, he completely forgot he was still holding a knife. In a swift motion, he accidentally slashed off one of Lu Zhengyang's ears with the Machete.
Fortunately, he was swiping upwards; if it had been a horizontal swipe, well, I shudder to think how gruesome that scene would have been.
Bang! Another gunshot rang out. Turning to look, I saw Rich Handsome Guy had already seized Lu Shaoyang's gun and twisted it away. Lu Shaoyang finally reacted and pulled the trigger, but unfortunately, the bullet shot straight into the sky.
With a cold snort, Rich Handsome Guy transformed his palm into a blade and struck directly at Lu Shaoyang's wrist. There was a crisp snap as Lu Shaoyang's wrist separated from his arm; Rich Handsome Guy had literally severed Lu Shaoyang's wrist.
With another cold snort, Rich Handsome Guy executed a side throw that slammed Lu Shaoyang to the ground. He kicked up a Machete that flew into his hand. Stepping on Lu Shaoyang's head, Rich Handsome Guy quickly disarmed him, tossed aside the severed hand, and held the knife against Lu Shaoyang's neck while aiming the gun at everyone around.
As for the Scarred Man with the Firearm, we ignored him entirely. In a sense, this Firearm was a one-time weapon. Each time it fired, it needed to be reloaded with iron sand and gunpowder. Jokingly speaking, with this Kung Fu skill, some impatient youths might even finish their Health Treatment before they could reload.
These actions were executed in a flash. By the time Lu Shaoyang's subordinates regained their senses, the situation had completely reversed. Although their Machetes glimmered ominously in their hands, Lu Shaoyang was already taken hostage; no one dared to act recklessly for fear of repercussions.
I breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully they were unarmed. If everyone had a gun, my only option would have been to escape through the portal.
Lu Zhengyang nodded at me with gratitude in his eyes. However, instead of remaining passive, he picked up a Machete from the ground and swung it around despite his injuries before striding towards the Golden Tent. The crowd parted for him; not one person dared to stop him.
After a while, Lu Zhengyang returned from the Golden Tent, nodded at me again with pride in his demeanor as he declared loudly, "The Lu Family army will arrive shortly. If you don’t want to die, drop your weapons now. Let me be clear: I won’t hold any grudges against you for what has happened before, but I can guarantee that your families will not be affected. As for specific penalties, I will handle them accordingly."
The crowd exchanged glances for a long time until one person dropped his Machete. Then came another and another… In the end, only the eight men who had killed Lu Zhengyang's bodyguard did not drop their Machetes.
"Damn, since we're going to die anyway, we might as well fight now..." One of the big men gritted his teeth and raised his knife, ready to charge at Lu Zhengyang.
Before he could finish his words, a loud bang echoed as a blood hole appeared on his forehead. He stood frozen for a moment before collapsing backward.
Across from him, the Rich Handsome Guy held his smoking gun.
"Damn! Since we're going to die..." Another big man also raised his knife.
Bang! Another gunshot rang out, hitting this man's right eye. In an instant, the area around his right eye was left a bloody mess, with the eyeball blown away. He too stood frozen for a moment before slowly falling to the ground.
It was expected that the remaining six would be intimidated, but to everyone's surprise, they showed no fear of death. One big man laughed loudly, "Brothers, let's all go together! This 54 pistol only has eight bullets. Earlier, Lu San Shao fired one shot and just now he fired two more. At most..."
Bang! A gunshot cut off the rest of his words as he fell heavily to the ground.
"He only has four bullets left; we still have five..."
Bang! After the gunshot, the next big man also collapsed to the ground.
"Three bullets left..."
Bang!
"Two left..."
Bang!
"We still have..."
Bang!
"Out of bullets, huh?" The last big man laughed ferociously, swinging the machete in his hand towards Lu Zhengyang. He looked somewhat deranged, his eyes bloodshot. It seemed that only one thought occupied his mind: to take someone down with him even in death.
Suddenly, a shadow flashed by, and the Rich Handsome Guy smashed his handgun against the big man's forehead, causing him to fall back in shock.
"Fool!" the Rich Handsome Guy chuckled innocently.
Lu Yue tore off a piece of cloth and wrapped it around her father's ear. As for the iron sand on his left arm, that could only be removed by a doctor.
The Rich Handsome Guy dragged Lu Shaoyang over to Lu Zhengyang and casually tossed Lu Shaoyang onto the ground, standing beside him with an indifferent demeanor, as if he were just an honest and simple big fatty.
Damn, you all are having a reunion, but you've wasted a lot of my Kung Fu time. I couldn't be bothered to greet them and turned to Shen Sipan to continue digging.
Seeing this, Lu Yue asked, "Brother Zhong, what are you doing?"
I replied irritably, "I'm treasure hunting. You're just a kid; don't mess around."
"Are you looking for that metal plate down there?" Lu Yue pondered for a moment and frowned.
"You mean there's also a metal plate down there? Huh, how did you know?" I was taken aback.
"Because we dug it open and looked. It seems you're really after that metal plate. No wonder you came to our oasis. But why didn't you move the stones and dig from above?" Lu Yue smiled brightly.
"Look, this is a big rock! How could I possibly move such a large stone? Do you think I'm China Mobile?" I rolled my eyes and scoffed, "You really are talking without feeling the pain. Come on, why don't you move it for me? Or maybe you can just kick it away."
As soon as I finished speaking, I noticed a strange expression on both Lu Zhengyang and Lv Yue's faces. Just as I was wondering what their expressions meant, Lv Yue lightly coughed and stepped forward to kick the big rock.
I thought Lv Yue was just embarrassed by my mockery and was kicking the stone out of frustration. Seriously, would she dare to kick such a large rock? Whatever, it wouldn't hurt me.
To my utter surprise, when Lv Yue kicked it, the big rock actually flew away.
Yes, I wasn't mistaken; this rock, which was about the size of a classroom, was kicked away by Lv Yue! Damn, this is not scientific. Newton, please get up and explain to me what your Newton's Second Law is all about.
Then I felt something was off; the rock was floating in the air as if it were a balloon. It took a while before it finally fell into the lake.
"What does this mean?" I pointed at the 'big rock' that had landed far away on the lake's surface and was actually floating on the water.
"Because I made this rock myself using the principle of balloons," Lv Yue replied with a smile.
"You made it yourself?" My mind was in a jumble, and I shouted, "Impossible! There has been a big rock here for hundreds of years; your grandfather wasn't even born back then!"
