Chapter 23: As You Wish

Yeah, they all felt this was just too damn fake! Was this a movie? Was Chen Fengshi’s staff the magical Ruyi Jingu Bang weighing thirteen thousand five hundred pounds? They just watched it sweep past a group of people’s legs, and then people fell to the ground in clusters, hugging their legs and screaming?

This was too fake…

However, not everyone felt this way. The four people who had just fought with Chen Fengshi were not surprised at all. When they saw Chen Fengshi test his staff earlier, they could tell that Chen Fengshi had years of training in traditional martial arts routines.

Under normal circumstances, this was useless. They were all human, and the strength gained from ordinary martial arts training would not be outrageously higher than that of a normal person. This was true for strength, and also for stamina. However, they knew that Chen Fengshi’s physical fitness was so strong that it was simply inhuman, so the difference was huge.

Simply put, when someone using a martial arts routine staff fought in a group brawl, it was just a person swinging a staff to hit people; but when Chen Fengshi swung it, others were like paper people in front of his staff, and one sweep could knock down a whole circle! With a casual swing of the performance staff techniques from martial arts routines, a bunch fell. After continuously finishing a set of staff techniques, he easily smashed a large group to the ground.

“Hey! Don’t back away!” Chen Fengshi noticed that the people behind him were not coming up. The people lying around blocked the way. At first, some people still tried to find gaps among the fallen to get closer, but now there were none. He had to take the initiative to go over, but the group of people he approached instead backed away as a whole.

Wasn’t this just a waste of time?

Fortunately, although those people wanted to retreat, they still worried about the consequences of being deserters right under Young Master Wang’s nose. In the end, they gritted their teeth and shouted as they attacked.

However, this was useless. Their active attacks instead shortened the time Chen Fengshi needed to sweep them to the ground.

Two iron staffs swung in Chen Fengshi’s hands, and one sweep around his body knocked down a circle of people. He didn’t care at all whether the weapons of the people surrounding him would hit him. Even if they hit him, they wouldn’t cause serious damage, so he just needed to swing his staffs even faster. Those routines he had practiced before, which he thought could only be used for performance, were incredibly mighty today!

Of course, this was not the credit of the staff routines themselves, but the effect of Chen Fengshi’s extraordinary physical abilities now.

Sister Yao was also dumbfounded. She jumped onto the hood of Young Master Kai’s car to watch, and then involuntarily moved to the roof to watch, while the stunned Young Master Kai didn’t even notice her uninvited ascent.

Liu Shuzhi was big, and from the beginning, he hadn’t dared to think about standing on someone else’s car to watch the battle. These cars looked unfathomably expensive. He would worry about dirtying them and being asked to pay compensation just by touching them, let alone stepping on them! So, he just stood on the ground to watch, but his height had no advantage, and he only saw many people rushing forward.

Then, he saw knives and staffs flying around, then saw the crowd retreating, and then advancing a few steps. He didn’t know the situation of the fight, and only heard many different voices howling and screaming.

Not long after, he finally saw Chen Fengshi, because the crowd surrounding him on this side was already all lying on the ground.

Liu Shuzhi saw more and more people falling to the ground, more and more… No one present could understand his feelings at this moment.

Yes, his feelings were not just shock or disbelief or anything like that.

Absolutely more than that!

Chen Fengshi… was this powerful? This powerful!

This was simply a scene that ordinary movies wouldn’t even dare to film, because it would make people feel it was unrealistically exaggerated. But he witnessed it. Chen Fengshi was single-handedly fighting a group. A hundred people? It looked like it was totally not enough for him to beat up. Maybe it just warmed him up? Because Liu Shuzhi didn’t see much sweat on Chen Fengshi’s face.

Then, what about himself?

An iron staff flew down and landed at Liu Shuzhi’s feet. He looked down, and as if possessed, he bent down and picked it up. He held it, looked at the staff, then looked up at Chen Fengshi, who was chasing the small crowd and swinging his staff to beat them, and then looked down at the staff again.

Suddenly, Liu Shuzhi’s hands gripping the iron staff exerted force. At first, he just wanted to try, but with a little force, he felt—he could really bend it! Then, he increased his force! So he watched the iron staff in his hand being bent little by little with his bare hands, continuing to be bent even more, until it finally became a U-shape.

Liu Shuzhi stared blankly down, looking at the iron staff that was easily bent into a U-shape in his hand…

Chen Fengshi caught up with two who tried to run away and directly swept his staff at their legs to knock them down. Looking around, there were still dozens of people standing.

It was no one else, but the group of people who had just been beaten by him.

Seeing Chen Fengshi’s gaze, among that group, the car thief in white quickly dropped the machete in his hand, then ran to the position where he was squatting just now, hugged his head and crouched down.

Chen Fengshi saw that the others were still standing there in a daze, and impatiently waved the staff in his hand. Seeing that group just subconsciously take a step back in a daze, he knocked the iron staff against the concrete floor and pointed at the car thief in white.

So, that group of stunned people woke up and threw their knives and staffs all over the ground as if dropping hot potatoes, then swarmed to the wall, consciously found their previous spots, and quickly squatted down.

Chen Fengshi noticed that the car thief in red was missing. He swept his gaze around and found him hugging his leg, lying on the ground and howling.

‘This guy really has guts, he refuses to admit defeat no matter what.’ Chen Fengshi silently praised the ruthlessness of the car thief in red, but he couldn’t remember when he had swept the car thief in red’s leg and broken it. There were really too many people, it was too chaotic.

There was no one left. It took less than the time to smoke a cigarette. If it weren’t for the people running all over the place to dodge him, the battle would have ended even faster.

Sister Yao stood on the roof of Young Master Kai’s car, clapping her hands hard with a mix of joy and surprise, shouting and cheering. “Great! Old Chen, you’re the man!”

Young Master Kai had already recovered his senses. Seeing her jumping ecstatically on the roof of the car, he should have felt heartache, but then he remembered that he had lost this car to her. Now she was jumping on his own car.

Young Master Kai’s mood could only be described as absolutely terrible! How was he going to explain this to his family in the future? Just thinking about it made his mood very bad…

Looking at the people on the ground hugging their legs and screaming, Chen Fengshi’s joy of victory quickly disappeared. Looking at their faces twisted in pain, and their miserable appearance with snot and tears mixed together, he couldn’t feel happy. He couldn’t help but mock himself in his mind: ‘I really have the heart of a sheep. Even though I hurt these bad guys, I still feel unbearable. No wonder when I traveled to the temple that year, the old monk said I had an affinity with Buddha. I am just naturally compassionate…’

Chen Fengshi didn’t want to overly praise his own soft-heartedness, and even less did he want to be dominated by it and lose his rationality. He had always reminded himself that he had to be hard-hearted when necessary, otherwise it would easily develop into a holy mother personality, and he would easily be taken advantage of and easily deceived by people who were good at pretending to be weak.

Therefore, he felt unbearable in his heart, but he didn’t show it on his face. Instead, he looked as calm as if it was a common sight. He walked through the middle of the screaming crowd as if strolling in a courtyard, jumped onto the hood of Young Master Wang’s car, saw that there were too many people standing on the roof and it was too crowded, so he just stood there, looked at Young Master Wang and asked: “Boss Wang, can I get the bill?”

The cigarette butt in Young Master Wang’s hand had burned halfway down. Only then did he realize he wanted a smoke. He threw it away in disgust and took out a new one, but damn it, his lighter was out of fluid and wouldn’t ignite no matter what! In his annoyance, he threw the lighter, which was worth over ten thousand, and cursed fiercely: “Fuck!”

Sister Yao, who was standing on the roof of Young Master Kai’s car, restrained her attitude at this moment and said to Chen Fengshi: “It’s not our place to press Young Master Wang for the debt. This little money is just a drizzle to him.”

Young Master Wang scoffed, pulled open his collar, and with a very displeased expression, lashed out at Sister Yao: “No matter how little the money is, I still have to be willing to pay it! Not a single cent of the money I give is what you deserve!”

Sister Yao understood Young Master Wang’s temper. He was unhappy about losing, so of course she had to yield in her words. Anyway, she had won. If she didn’t let him save some face, with his competitive nature, he would definitely explode. So she smiled and nodded: “That’s true, it’s always Young Master Wang who has the final say.”

Chen Fengshi listened to their conversation and watched their performance. He could only say that he admired Sister Yao’s ability to deal with this guy. However, he also felt it was quite boring. Sister Yao handled it this way simply because she didn’t want to give the other party a reason to lash out and refuse to pay. And he actually felt quite displeased listening to Young Master Wang’s words. He didn’t lash out partly because he was in a good mood, and partly because he wanted to successfully collect the money.

Analyzing his current mental state like this, Chen Fengshi felt that he had suddenly become very petty. He actually chose to be pressured by money?

But on second thought, he wasn’t very unhappy about it. Why make things difficult for himself? Being pressured by a rich guy with money is actually a happy thing like winning the lottery!

Young Master Wang jumped down from the roof of the car, opened the door, took out twenty stacks of brand-new cash from the car and put them into a bag. He threw it onto the ground in front of the car and said to Chen Fengshi: “Here’s twenty stacks. Have your woman come find me tomorrow for the rest.”

Chen Fengshi wasn’t worried about him refusing to pay. Taking out so much cash on the spot actually startled him, and he couldn’t figure out how he could casually keep so much money in his car. ATMs couldn’t dispense this much at this time anyway, so they could only wait until tomorrow.

Sister Yao reached out her hand to Young Master Kai, smilingly watched him take out the car keys and registration, and forcefully slammed them into her hand.

Sister Yao didn’t mind, because she didn’t feel it hurt. “I’ll drive it for a few days. If Young Master Kai likes it, he can buy it back with money.”

Young Master Kai didn’t make a sound. He knew that Sister Yao guessed it would be hard for him to explain to his parents, and he definitely would have to find a way to get money to redeem the car. But her words left him some dignity, and saying it in public now was equivalent to giving him a way out. Although he was in a bad mood and didn’t want to take the way out, he certainly wasn’t stupid enough to reply to Sister Yao’s kindness with harsh words. So he silently walked away, squeezed into the car of the friend who came with him but didn’t participate in the gambling, and drove away behind Young Master Wang’s car.

A group of motorcycles that came with them also started their engines at this time and followed them away.

When these people passed by Chen Fengshi, they all turned their heads to look at him a few times, in order to remember him more clearly.

Being so good at fighting really shocked them too much!

Sister Yao was in a particularly beautiful mood holding the car keys. After Young Master Wang’s people left, she asked Chen Fengshi: “You know how to drive, right?”

“No.” Chen Fengshi could guess what Sister Yao wanted to do. It was nothing more than she had driven here herself, and wanted him to help drive the won car back as well. However, he didn’t want to help her.

“Will it kill you to help out?” Sister Yao bit her lower lip, almost wanting to lash out, but she held it back and said: “Fine, isn’t it just that you want me to go to the hospital? I’ll go tomorrow.”

“We’ll talk after you go. I don’t dare to talk to you right now.” After Chen Fengshi finished speaking, he frankly added: “I do know how to drive, but I don’t dare to drive this car. The pressure is too huge! My driving experience is nothing more than acting as a temporary driver when my parents both drank during family outings. My total driving distance is probably less than three hundred kilometers. If I bump or scratch your car, if I don’t pay I’ll feel I owe you, and if I do pay it will definitely hurt my wallet!”
