There was a faint light in the cabin. Lu Fei told Zhang Wuji not to make any noise, not even to breathe loudly.
Lu Fei leaped forward with Zhang Wuji in tow. The two of them hid behind the door and peeked inside. They saw Zhu Changling, father and daughter, and Wei Bi sitting with their backs to them. There was also a tall man, the one Zhang Wuji met the other day pretending to be Xie Xun. Presumably, he was Wu Lie from Wu Family Village. Sitting next to him was Wu Qingying.
They were discussing how to disguise themselves as merchants and go out to sea to find Xie Xun. They talked about finding the treasured Saber and being able to dominate the Wulin world. They were all very excited. They also talked about how to poison Xie Xun. Zhang Wuji's whole body trembled, perhaps because of anger, or perhaps because of fear.
Lu Fei saw Zhang Wuji was about to lose control of his emotions, so he quickly pulled him outside. Unexpectedly, Zhang Wuji's state of mind was so chaotic that he stepped on a dead branch, immediately producing a crisp sound.
They were in a forest, but after the heavy snowfall, the forest was full of snow. Lu Fei carried Zhang Wuji with one hand and ran at full speed, while the other hand dodged the branches reaching out from all directions to avoid scratching their bodies. Behind them came the faint sound of voices. Lu Fei knew they had caught up.
The two of them ran out of the forest. Before their eyes was a vast snowy plain. They had no cover, no place to hide.
Lu Fei said, "You'll hold them back? Are you kidding? If they use you to threaten me, won't I have no choice but to be captured? "
Zhang Wuji blushed, but in his heart he was grateful to Lu Fei for his loyalty. "Then what should we do now?" he asked. "If we keep going forward, the footprints we leave on the ground will be enough for them to catch up."
Lu Fei thought, "Right now the 'Jiu Yang Shen Gong' has not been perfected, and the 'Solitary Yang Finger' has not been mastered, so killing Zhu Changling and Wu Lie will be difficult. Moreover, I have Zhang Wuji with me, which will increase the difficulty of escaping." Having thought this, he said, "We have no choice but to keep going forward. I know a place where we can hide for a while."
Immediately, he sprinted madly with Zhang Wu Ji in tow. With his current skill, he was still unable to 'tread on the snow without leaving a trace'. Moreover, he was carrying Zhang Wu Ji, so it was even more impossible for him to leave no footprints behind.
After running for a while, five figures appeared behind them. Zhang Wuji said in shock, "They've caught up."
Lu Fei saw that there was nowhere to hide in this area. Even carrying out a sneak attack was impossible. His footsteps quickened. There was a forest in front of him on the mountain. The forest was filled with dense grass and could be used for a sneak attack.
After all, there was still some distance between the two sides. As Lu Fei rushed into the forest, he saw no one behind him. Wu Lie and Zhu Changling took the lead, Wei Bi followed behind them. Zhu Jiuzhen and Wu Qingying were even further behind.
Lu Fei and Zhang Wu Ji continued to move forward. Finally they arrived in front of the thick grass. The grass was waist-high. The two of them walked for a while. Lu Fei told Zhang Wu Ji to move forward a bit to avoid being caught, while he himself hid in a position closer to the front. As soon as the enemy entered their range, he would carry out a sneak attack.
After the two of them were well hidden, they heard footsteps. Wu Lie said, "Those two kids must be hiding here. They can't have run far …"
Zhu Changling stopped him. "Ay," he said, "I don't know what Zhen 'er said wrong to offend Zhang Xiongdi. I am really worried that he is so young. If something bad happens to him in this snow-covered mountain range, even if I die a horrible death, I would not be able to face Zhang En Gong. "
Lu Fei thought that even now he was still thinking of deceiving people. This man's scheming had really reached the point where it was impossible to understand. He heard Zhu Changling and Wu Lie, two people, each holding a wooden stick, beating the grass. Fortunately, the forest covered a large area, so even if they wanted to beat every inch of the grass, it would be impossible. Not long afterwards, Wei Bi and the Two Beauties of the Snowy Ridge also arrived. The five of them searched the forest for half a day, but all along they did not find anything. They all felt tired, so they sat down on a rock to rest. Actually, the place where the five of them were sitting was no more than three 'zhang's away from Lu Fei, but the forest was dense and the grass was so long that his body was completely hidden.
Lu Fei saw these people had entered his attack range. He gathered his strength and waited. He arched his body in the grass, and suddenly his two fingers shot out high up in the air. These two fingers were the result of his all-out effort. Two swift and fierce gusts of wind produced a sharp whistle in the air, shooting toward Zhu Changling and Wu Lie. Zhang Wuji stood up, and without giving them a second glance, he quickly retreated and flew away.
Zhu Changling and Wu Lie, two people, were shocked; they did not expect that there were two martial art masters hiding in the grass. They were caught off guard and were thrown into a very difficult situation. The two of them did not have enough time to evade, they were only able to lean sideways to avoid being hit on their vital points. Unexpectedly, their acupoints were sealed and they were unable to move a single step.
Seeing Lu Fei's figure, Wei Bi was about to jump and pursue when Wu Lie hastily said, "Don't chase him, you are not his match. Wait until we open our acupoints first."
Lu Fei's two fingers were indeed formidable, unexpectedly they broke through their 'zhen qi' protecting their bodies. If they were hit on their vital points, there was a real possibility that they would be injured. Zhu Changling angrily said, "How can this kid use the 'Solitary Yang Finger'?"
Zhu Jiuzhen looked astonished. "Most likely," she said, "He … he learned it when he saw Father practicing."
"Humph," Zhu Changling snorted, "He can see the style, but can he also see the route of the energy circulation? Presumably he peeked at the 'Solitary Yang Finger' manual. "Speaking to this point, his anger was difficult to quell." This kid must die, "he said.
Zhu Jiuzhen stared blankly, her heart was filled with disbelief. Could it be that the person she gave her body to was unexpectedly a despicable and shameless thief? She did not expect that their family's deception was actually even more despicable and shameless. Thinking that she and her lover were enemies, and that they would never be able to enjoy life together again, she could not help feeling disappointed and frustrated, her heart was empty.
Lu Fei went to a distance and grabbed Zhang Wuji. The two of them continued to dash forward. Before long they reached the edge of a cliff. They saw several wolves standing on the snowy plain on the opposite side of the cliff, howling and howling. "Call me your sister," Lu Fei shouted.
Zhang Wuji was puzzled. Everything was fine, why did he want others to call him 'sister'?
Lu Fei looked down and said, "This is the place."
Hearing this, Zhang Wuji was aghast. "What?" he said, "We … we are going to jump down?"
By this time Zhu Changling and Wu Liewu had already caught up. Lu Fei was not able to injure them even when he launched a sneak attack. Now that they were prepared, it would be even more difficult to kill them. Right now the only way out was the cave where they obtained the 'Nine Yang Manual'.
Zhu Changling saw the two of them were about to jump off the cliff, so he immediately stepped forward and said, "Don't take things too hard …" Lu Fei stretched out his hand and pointed his finger in the air, creating a strong wind. Zhu Changling did not dare to be careless and hastily dodged.
