Since three days ago when Ba Fenghan and Fu Junyu caught up with theyin toward Dongji, passing through Yixing and Yongshi+, two big county towns
Although the have given everything they had, with crafty sche they were unable to shake off Ba Fenghan and Fu Junyu It was only then did they realize that either one of Ba or Fu was an expert in tracking and following; they could not help whining on for days
That evening Ba Fenghan, two people were getting closer and closer, the two boys sensed that they were only about a hundred or so zhang away Fortunately they came across a rapids in a secluded canyon deep in theheavily The two boys followed the rapids downstream for more than ten li before they were able to delay the imminent disaster for a few moments
By the time the two boys crawled up froone their muscles weary, their clothes were tattered and they were covered in scars due to the frictions with sharp rocks along the way; in short, they were co even lost his Moon in the Well
Under the downpour the two boys cli cliff, and since they were unable to take it any longer, both collapsed on the ground
Gasping for breath, Kou Zhong said, “You think we lost Fengshi+ Han yet? The rain is so heavy, any scent or trace ought to be washed away!”
Xu Ziling turned his face up, to let the sharp raindrops shot like arrows onto his face He sighed and said, “No uy is deterainst us; whoever collapse first is the loser”
Kou Zhong bitter said, “Supposing this ti has ress Ay! When we left that day, ere so proud and strong, ould have thought that this wicked Ah Yi [shi+ Han, canfa dropped doith his entire body crouched down on the ground, his handsoroaned and said, “The Heaven decreed that to be a great man, one must first labor his muscles and bones, temper his will, and deplete his body In my opinion, before we are out the critical circuht to practice for threealso craned his neck to look down into the ravine below, he saaterfall fro down into a sle all around it, which extended continuously in the canyon below until nobody kne deep or how far
Leaning out farther away, he saw underneath the cliff about ten zhang away froreat number of branches and luxuriant leaves; it was exceptionally spectacular
Having a brainwave, Kou Zhong called out, “Xiao Ling, corew under the cliff; it o down to take a look, who knows if there is a cave down there where we can hide for several days, so that even their feet becoshi+ Han cannot find us”
Xu Ziling e of the cliff; but before he had any chance to look down, his body suddenly shook, “Bad!” he said
Kou Zhong was greatly startled; following Xu Ziling’s gaze, he looked toward the opposite side of the ravine, to a s lower than their cliff But he did not detect anything unusual “What is it?” he hastily asked
Thisheavier, plus the forest was dark, so that not only it was difficult to see into the distance, they also had to raise their voices just to be heard
Xu Ziling put his lips next to Kou Zhong’s ears and said in a low voice, “They are coust of wind carried the sound of broken branches intowas frightened as well Under this kind of circue to trail theth?
“Do you still have any strength left?” he asked in heavy voice
Xu Ziling shook his head ry shed and said, “We, two brothers, are the sa If you are incapable, naturally I ashi+ Han are not much better compared to us Otherwise they would not have broken a branch Right now there is only one way out, which is going down to look for a cave What do you think? Do you want to try?”
Xu Ziling said, “Based on our experience these past few days, no ed to find us But tonight apparently their hearing is also impeded by this heavy rain, so that for the first time they let us lie down here for nearly half a sichen If we could exploit this favorable situation, wethe s had a brainwave, “Right now, even though Ning Daoqi and Fu Cailin have eyes, it’s like they are blind Supposing … ha … I got an idea”
The two boys standing side by side at the edge of the cliff, each one holding a large rock that they wrapped in their tattered outer robe
Thisnearer and nearer Kou Zhong signaled Xu Ziling with his eyes, suddenly the two boys let out a shout and throw the large rocks down first before they followed by ju down
By the time the two boys have safely landed on the old pine tree below, the rocks were still falling rapidly down The sound of their robes rustling against the wind continued on, getting farther and farther away; there was really no difference fro down
The two boys did not dare to breathe loudly, they crouched on the pine tree and did not dare to budge
‘Splash!+ Splash!+’ The sound of objects falling into the water was faintly heard fro below
Fu Junyu’s voice followed from above, “Good kid! Unexpectedly they escaped”
Ba Fenghan sighed and said, “These twokids endurance is indeed astonishi+ng, their courage is even bigger that it wraps the heavens Junyu still want to go after them?”
Fu Junyu resolutely said, “Even to the end of the earth I want to go after the looked at each other in dis with rage between gritted teeth’ and hated theetting heavier”
After a ain from above, “Is it possible for me to take care of so for those two kids to settle the account?” he said tenderly
Fu Junyu’s reply was cold, “Who wants you to accoirl!”
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were greatly astonished Could it be that Dong? Could it be that she already joined hands with Fengshi+ Han?
Forcing a laughter, Ba Fenghan said, “Junyu, haven’t we coreement to become intimate friends? Why does the tone of your voice sound like you are a jealous lover?”
Fu Junyu said heavily, “Do you really think that we are good friends? This tihan, volunteered to deal with those two boys, in the end you only want to win that girl’s favor Are you saying it was because you really want to be good friends with hed aloud and said, “If Junyu wants to think like that, there is nothing that I can do But in conduct and interaction in society, a real o and when to act, and not to be controlled by others; only then will he delight in what he say I don’t care how Junyu viewsto end Junyu is the first [female] confidante I encountered after I entered the Central Earth”
Fu Junyu replied indifferently, “YouI, Fu Junyu, a those two boys, I will immediately return to Gaoli, and will never coust of wind arose; apparently in her anger Fu Junyu abandoned Ba Fenghan
Kou Zhong whispered in Xu Ziling’s ear, “This guy is alone noe seize this opportunity to launch a sudden attack?”
“Do you have any strength?” Xu Ziling asked back
