Chapter 21: True Help in the Snow
Chapter 21: True Help in the Snow
Chen Fengshi smiled. These people were here to watch a show. He originally did not plan to sell, but—an easy-to-think-of realistic problem was that if they forcefully attacked him, he would still have to fight, and they would achieve their goal without paying.
Since this tall, thin man with thick lips and golden hair gave off a rich and willful vibe, Chen Fengshi felt he might as well help him out!
Praise all the rich folks who throw money around, only then can there be money to pick up.
“These four…” Chen Fengshi pretended to carefully look over the three men and one woman, pondered for a moment, and then said: “At one glance, I can tell you are experts! Not ordinary experts! If you take turns fighting, how about I charge ten thousand per person?”
The man grinned, adding a bit of mockery to his tone. “What is the point of a one-on-one?”
“Easy, all four of you attack at once, four times the price!” Chen Fengshi saw that the man was truly insensitive to the price, so he quoted his planned highest price. He thought to himself, there is no way he would still agree to this, right? One hundred and sixty thousand to watch a show? Forget about whether he is rich or not, is the show worth it?
Unexpectedly, the man did not even frown, and agreed without a moment of hesitation: “No problem. If you win, I will pay without a second word. If you lose, you have to let them beat you up for one minute, and I will still pay.”
The beautiful woman with long red hair beside him mocked sarcastically: “You think over a hundred thousand can scare Young Master Wang?”
The group of people who came on motorcycles all pointed their thumbs down, booing and jeering at Chen Fengshi.
Alright, Chen Fengshi could only say that this rich guy was totally ruthless. Was this man really willing to spend over a hundred thousand to buy a show? However, they were obviously not good people. Knowing that Chen Fengshi intentionally drove the price up, getting beaten up for a minute if he lost was equivalent to returning the favor for his sky-high asking price. The meaning was obvious: to earn this money, Chen Fengshi had to take the risk. He was a rich guy, but not an idiot or a sucker.
Chen Fengshi’s quoted price was accepted by the other party, and now, a group of people were booing to see if he dared to accept the risk of failure.
“No problem!” Chen Fengshi naturally agreed. Just for one battle, winning would bring an income of one hundred and sixty thousand? That caught up to his father’s income for more than half a year, and exceeded his mother’s income for a whole year. Truly ruthless!
However, having money thrown at him like this made him happy!
The three men and one woman came straight over without another word—Chen Fengshi did not expect to be able to fight like he did just now. If they were all trained, how could he rely on footwork and dodging to bully them? His confidence came from the abnormal gap in their basic attack and defense abilities.
The four people launched their attacks with perfect coordination. In just one exchange, it fully showed the cold reality that two fists could not beat four hands. Under the combined attack of the four, even if Chen Fengshi tried his best to block, punches and kicks still hit him continuously like raindrops!
“Nice!” The people watching the show around them booed—for them, rather than seeing Chen Fengshi successfully earn over a hundred thousand by fighting one against four, they would rather see an unknown guy who single-handedly beat up a bunch of trash, then get beaten down by their recognized experts, ending up with a miserable lifelong disability in exchange for the over a hundred thousand.
Even though Chen Fengshi tried his best to block, the three men’s fists still occasionally hit his ribs, and their kicks landed on the numb spots of his thighs; and that long-haired woman, who looked beautiful with a well-proportioned and attractive figure, was the most vicious when she fought!
Probably because of her gender, her strength was a bit less than the men’s, so she developed a nasty habit in combat of always aiming for a man’s crotch.
That is right, she always wanted to kick there.
For a moment, Chen Fengshi, who was only defending and not attacking, seemed to be beaten so hard that he had no power to fight back. The crowd was cheering and applauding, and some were even shouting excitedly things like ‘beat him to death’.
The rich guy who paid the money was also very happy, casually sitting on the hood of the car, smoking leisurely and watching.
However, as time passed, some people felt that something was not quite right.
Yes, Chen Fengshi had been surrounded and beaten by the three men and one woman for dozens of seconds, but he was still standing there steadily!
The crowd watching the excitement all noticed something was wrong, and the three men and one woman who were besieging Chen Fengshi realized something was wrong even earlier.
What it felt like for Chen Fengshi when their punches and kicks landed, they did not know, but they felt like they were hitting a wall, and they hurt a lot! Chen Fengshi was completely indifferent, as if he treated their fists like a toddler’s touch. Even when they kicked the numb spot on Chen Fengshi’s thigh, there was still no special reaction.
His damage resistance was actually this terrifying? How was that possible?
The more they fought, the more unbelievable the three men and one woman found it!
The woman secretly gritted her teeth, finally found a good opportunity, and instantly thrust her bent middle finger toward Chen Fengshi’s temple.
Just when it seemed she would succeed, Chen Fengshi, who seemed unprepared, suddenly moved his right palm back and blocked her attack. Immediately after, his legs finally moved! He instantly dashed sideways, smoothly wrapped his arms around the long-haired woman’s waist, swung her out to knock down two men, and then raised his leg and kicked the third man in the stomach, instantly kicking him flying away—the man did not even struggle, just lay on the ground motionless.
Among the onlookers, someone could not help but exclaim: “Damn! Are we shooting a movie?”
But in the time it took to say this, one of the two men whose bodies were out of control from being thrown was directly punched in the face by Chen Fengshi and fainted on the ground; the other one defensively stepped back in a circle, continuously throwing punches and kicks as feints, trying to trick Chen Fengshi into attacking and revealing a flaw.
After retreating seven or eight steps and using feints more than ten times, Chen Fengshi saw that this man’s footwork was flexible, and the woman who had been thrown out had gotten up dizzily holding her forehead. He did not want to drag it out any longer, so he pretended to be fooled by the man’s feints and made a motion to punch.
The man instantly seized the opportunity, leaned forward, and punched him under the ribs.
However, Chen Fengshi did not feel pain at all. He had deliberately sold a flaw, so he directly grabbed the man’s arm with a backhand, casually exerted force and threw him out, instantly making him crash into the woman who had just gotten up.
Before they could stand up and gather their wits, Chen Fengshi was already over there, grabbing each of them by the hair, and then said to the woman: “Beauty, was it really necessary to be that ruthless just now?”
After speaking, he smashed the two people’s heads together, and then let go of the two dizzy heads.
The surrounding crowd was completely silent…
The tall, thin, thick-lipped Young Master Wang silently watched Chen Fengshi walk up to him. The ash on the cigarette between his fingers had grown quite long.
After a moment, he let out a long breath, flicked the ash, and took a drag. “Are you playing us for fools?”
Chen Fengshi put his hands in his pockets and said with a smile: “You spent money, shouldn’t I sell you a few seconds of battle entertainment?”
Young Master Wang laughed. “I like that answer.” He glanced at the three rows of people squatting by the wall, and asked Chen Fengshi: “Can you take them on one more time?”
Before Chen Fengshi could answer, a sudden angry voice shouted: “He is not interested!”
Chen Fengshi looked in the direction of the voice and saw Sister Yao leading Liu Shuzhi over. Her appearance seemed to surprise Young Master Wang, who could not help but glance at Chen Fengshi again, and then asked her: “Your man?”
“So—don’t even think about playing him to death.” Sister Yao’s face showed anger. She just popped up out of nowhere, acting as if it was a matter of course to make decisions for Chen Fengshi, and finally, she even stood in front of him, provocatively staring at Young Master Wang.
The group of people, including Young Master Wang, could not help but be attracted by the muscular man Liu Shuzhi! It only took one glance, just one glance, for everyone to be intimidated by Liu Shuzhi’s terrifying muscles! They did not even dare to imagine what terrifying power those muscles possessed, they just felt that even if a knife stabbed at them, it would not pierce half the thickness of the muscle.
“This brother…” Young Master Wang was always arrogant, and had not known what fear felt like for many years. But at this moment, Liu Shuzhi’s terrifying muscles made him involuntarily feel panic. An instinctive sense of fear in the face of power actually made him unable to keep his voice normal.
This made him feel extremely frustrated! Afraid? Fear? What did he, Young Master Wang, have to fear? His family’s wealth was his strength! Was some muscular guy hanging out with Sister Yao worth his fear? No matter how big he was, he could crush him to death with money!
This allowed Young Master Wang to regain his confidence. His gaze shifted from Liu Shuzhi to Sister Yao’s face. “I was having fun playing, and you say stop? Should I play with you instead?”
Sister Yao’s face turned pale for a moment. She did not expect Young Master Wang to show her such little respect, but now that he had actually done so, she realized she did not have enough confidence to go against him.
Before she could say anything, Young Master Wang took a drag of his cigarette and said again: “It is a pity that even if you are willing, I have no interest in playing with you now. Perfect—your man can fight, and this big guy looks domineering! Have you seen the hundred-man battle array in the movies? Right, I heard there were some good fighters tonight, so I wanted to see a real-life hundred-man battle array! These two can team up—”
Young Master Wang turned and shouted at a man riding a motorcycle without a helmet: “Where are the people?”
“They have been here for a long time!” The man yelled at the top of his lungs: “Get the hell out here!”
In an instant, rapid footsteps sounded from the surrounding alleys. For a moment, it felt like enemies were closing in from all sides. Dense crowds of people surged out, and the small open space in front of the internet cafe was quickly surrounded.
Chen Fengshi had seen this kind of scene before, but those were just extras to pad the numbers. Today, these guys were the real deal who would actually fight.
Sister Yao’s expression changed, and she angrily scolded in a low voice: “You are going to get us killed!”
Chen Fengshi said in annoyance: “I say, you make all sorts of baffling decisions for me without even saying hello. Are we that close?”
Sister Yao was angry and was about to speak, but Chen Fengshi already ignored her and directly said to Young Master Wang: “There is no need to find them for the show you prepared for me. It is no fun having such a big guy join the fight either. As long as the price is right, I can satisfy you with a hundred-man battle array too!”
Sister Yao could not help but be stunned. She remembered that Chen Fengshi had a stubborn temper, but he was not Superman. With so many people, they could exhaust him to death! However, what could she do to help? And how could Liu Shuzhi possibly fight to the death for Chen Fengshi? She glanced at Liu Shuzhi, and sure enough, he had no intention of actively seeking a fight.
After all, Liu Shuzhi had suddenly become strong, and he had no accurate understanding or positioning of his own strength, let alone the self-confidence to dare to challenge others as a foundation. In contrast, Chen Fengshi had long had street fighting experience, had a clear assessment of the limits of his strength improvement, and possessed the self-confidence to dare to face challenges when things happened.
“Badass!” Young Master Wang laughed and said to Sister Yao: “You have good taste!” After he finished speaking, he suddenly changed his tone and mockingly asked: “You actually think you can win? Are you Superman?”
