A few days after the new year, the snow on the road had mostly melted. However, an even bigger snowstorm had covered the road, covering the wheat sprouts and leaves that had just emerged from the snow.
The elders of Swallow Dock shouted that the snow was a sign of a bountiful year, and that there would definitely be a good harvest this year.
No matter what status they had in the outside world, they were simple and pure farmers in Swallow Dock.
Kacha kacha —
The car rolled over the hard, frozen ground. Every time the tires rolled, the sound of ice and snow being crushed could be heard. These beautiful spirits were both tenacious and fragile.
Fang Yixing was driving very slowly. The black Buick sedan was like a giant tortoise slowly climbing on the surface of the snow.
Fang Yixing had been very busy these past few days. His art exhibition was going to be held at the Glittering Jewel Hall. After Fang Yixing had given up on martial arts, he had focused all his attention on writing poetry and painting. As a result, he had always been ridiculed and ridiculed by the people of Swallow Dock.
After so many years of hard work, he had finally achieved something in this area. It was indeed something to be happy about.
"If I can't become a brilliant martial artist, then I'll become a brilliant painter." Fang Yixing had a kind smile on his face. "That way, I won't be embarrassed by that kid, right? You don't know, but when our old man talks about that kid, he's so excited that he can't help but sing. "
"It's us brothers who have disappointed master too much. That's why he has placed more of his hopes on Fang Yan. When the art exhibition is held, I'll invite sister-in-law and Fang Yan over to take a look. "Wang Dong said with a smile. "They'll definitely be proud of you when they see your work."
Wang Dong was Fang Huwei's disciple, and also Fang Yixing's junior brother. Later, because he cultivated too hard, his Qi Sea was torn apart, causing his internal energy to leak out. Fortunately, he was discovered in time by Mo Qingdi, who used the Great Art Dispersal Technique to disperse the violent energy in his body through his acupuncture points and countless hairs. This saved his life.
However, from then on, Wang Dong was cut off from the path of martial arts, and could no longer gather internal energy. If he used too much energy, his whole body would ache.
Wang Dong remained in the Fang Family and became a member of the Fang Family. He helped the Fang Family manage some of the family's businesses. Following the paralysis of Elder Fang Huwei and the sudden death of Mo Qingdi, the Fang family's business plummeted. Their market share was almost swallowed up by others.
Since Wang Dong didn't have a place to use his skills in Beijing, he could only work as an assistant to Fang Yixing's art exhibition. When Fang Yixing was rushing between Swallow Dock and Swallow Jing City, Wang Dong acted as his temporary driver.
"Yes, we have to bring them to have a look." Fang Yixing said with a smile, but there was a desolate look on his face. "If we don't give that fellow a good shock, I'm afraid we won't be able to control him. I heard that he's dating a child from the Ye Clan. Isn't he afraid that the Ye Clan will break his legs?"
"Let the children handle their own matters." Wang Dong consoled him, "If this matter really succeeds, then it'll be a match made in heaven for our Swallow Dock. In the past, I felt that Fang Yan and Miss Ye looked like a couple. The Ye family's attitude was important, but it wasn't the most important. The key is still Miss Ye's choice. "
"Yes, I'm very satisfied with the Ye Clan's daughter's appearance and character. It's just that she's too unsociable, and her martial arts are a bit too high. I'm afraid that Fang Yan will be bullied." Fang Yixing thought of his son's miserable state every time he sparred with Ye Rou. He couldn't help but worry about his son's future marriage. If he married a girl like Ye Rou, wouldn't he get beaten up every three days and beaten up every five days? When it came to marrying a wife, it was naturally better to have a virtuous and loyal wife.
Wang Dong laughed heartily. "Senior, there's no use worrying about this. Miss Ye is proud and arrogant. There are quite a few youngsters in Swallow Jing who like her. However, Fang Yan was able to succeed. Naturally, he has his outstanding points. Moreover, who knows if this is someone's private affair, and Fang Yan enjoys it? "
Fang Yixing was a bit angry. He thought to himself, "Could it be that my son was born to be so cheap that he likes to be beaten?"
Pa!
The car window was hit by a huge object, causing a muffled sound.
Bang!
Wang Dong slammed on the brakes. The heavy car skidded a few times on the layer of ice and snow before coming to a stop.
Wang Dong didn't immediately open the car door to check. Instead, he sat in the driver's seat and looked around vigilantly.
The red and white object had already slid to the ground. A shocking brownish-red bloodstain had fallen onto the car window.
From the color of the bloodstain, it could be seen that the object had already been dead for a long time.
"What was it?" Fang Yixing asked.
"I don't know." Wang Dong said. "I'll go down and take a look."
"No need. Let's go. "Fang Yixing said with a serious expression. "There might be trouble."
Wang Dong didn't say anything else. He prepared to start the car and leave this dangerous place. He had practiced martial arts for many years. Even though he had lost all of his Qi, his intuition towards danger was still quite sharp.
"It's too late." Fang Yixing said.
It was indeed too late. In front of the car stood a mysterious person completely shrouded in a black robe.
He appeared like a ghost, like a wandering ghost in the wilderness.
"Trying to be mysterious."
Wang Dong clenched his teeth and started the car. He slammed on the accelerator and charged towards the black-robed person.
Boom — —
The car ran over the black-robed person's position, but the black-robed person had already disappeared.
Wang Dong didn't dare to slow down. The car maintained its high speed as it sped towards Swallow Dock.
As long as they returned to Swallow Dock, or rather, as long as they got close to it, they would be truly safe.
He believed that no one would dare to behave atrociously in Swallow Dock.
Because the ground was too slippery and the car was moving too quickly, the car's tires skidded left and right. From time to time, it would jump into a nearby ditch.
Wang Dong gripped the steering wheel tightly and tried his best to control the direction of the car so that it wouldn't jump into a ditch or flip over.
Wang Dong's forehead was covered in sweat and the hair on his body stood on end. His palms were also drenched in sweat as he continuously adjusted the steering wheel.
They'd already sped for quite a distance, but Wang Dong was still very clear that they hadn't escaped from danger.
That feeling of fear was like a shadow following the body. It was as if the mysterious black-robed person was standing behind you and looking at you with a sneer.
Fang Yixing's expression was as gloomy as the color of the sky. He scanned his surroundings for the black-robed person's whereabouts.
It was impossible for the black-robed person to be a specter. He also didn't believe that there were any specters in this world.
There was a notorious assassin organization in the Arab world that was named after specters. However, Fang Yixing knew that the black-robed person they'd seen was definitely not a member of that assassin organization.
He'd already appeared once on New Year's Eve. At that time, he'd wanted to borrow Zhou Fan's hands to take the lives of the entire Fang Family.
Now, he'd appeared once again. This time, he only wanted to take his life?
Fang Yixing's nerves were extremely taut. He was extremely clear that the danger hadn't truly been resolved.
He'd seen a lot of things in Swallow Dock, so he didn't think that he'd be able to leave the black-robed person behind just by sitting in the car. This was because there were many people in Swallow Dock who could truly start their cars faster than a car.
The fact that they'd suddenly appeared and then suddenly disappeared proved that the black-robed person's speed had already reached the limit. Furthermore, Fang Yan had said that the black-robed person had escaped in order to save Zhou Fan when they'd fought. Not everyone could escape from Fang Yan's hands. Especially escaping from Fang Yan's hands.
Crack — —
A crisp sound rang out from above their heads.
The hard metal roof of the car was sliced open by a sharp blade, which pierced towards Wang Dong's head.
Wang Dong's body leaned forward, avoiding the most dangerous position, which was his head.
"Jump out of the car." Wang Dong shouted loudly.
The black-robed person was on the roof of the car, above their heads. As long as he wanted to, he could stab them a hundred and eighty times at any time. With such a small space to move around and dodge, every stab could cause them fatal damage.
He shouted loudly for Fang Yixing to jump out of the car first. After Fang Yixing jumped out of the car, he'd drive the black-robed person towards the deep ditch on the side of the road.
Perhaps that way, he'd be able to buy his senior brother a minute to escape.
Even thirty seconds was fine.
Bang!
Fang Yixing didn't hesitate. He pushed open the car door and jumped out.
His body rolled on the snowy ground, then he crawled up and threw himself in the direction of the car.
He didn't run away. He wouldn't abandon his brother and escape by himself.
Moreover, he was extremely clear that even if he wanted to escape, his chances of success were extremely low. If he stood together with his brother and gathered all of his weak strength together, then perhaps he'd be able to struggle for a chance at survival.
When Wang Dong heard the sound of a car door opening behind him, he forcefully turned the steering wheel and drove the black-robed person towards the deep ditch on the side of the road.
Don't you like to hitch a ride? He wanted to bring the black-robed person into the ditch.
Crack — —
Another blade pierced through the roof of the car. This time, it was still aimed at the top of Wang Dong's head.
Wang Dong's body leaned towards the backseat, but because he was too slow, the blade sliced off the tip of his nose.
Fresh blood violently gushed out, quickly dyeing his mouth and clothes red.
His mouth was filled with large mouthfuls of blood. Even if he coughed, he'd spit out blood.
He firmly stepped on the accelerator. Even if he died, he'd drag the black-robed person down.
Crack — —
Another blade pierced through.
This time, the blade was both fast and ruthless. It directly pierced through the top of Wang Dong's head.
Wang Dong opened his eyes wide with unwillingness. His hands powerlessly fell to the ground. The forcefully twisted steering wheel quickly returned to its original position, emitting a whining sound.
At this moment, the car leapt into the air and fell towards the deep ditch on the side of the road.
Finally, he'd bought his senior brother a minute of time.
Even if it was only thirty seconds, he was willing to trade his life for it.
