Chapter 1167 - 1167: The Tattoo on His Neck

Tang Mingbo didn't bother to ponder whether it was bullets or steel balls that hit the dirt mound, or perhaps something else entirely.

He couldn't help but think, if he hadn't crouched down just now, or if he had reacted just a tad bit slower...

A sudden tingling sensation crept over his scalp, followed by a cold sweat breaking out all over!

"What are you standing there for? Waiting to die?" Xiao Feng shouted harshly.

Tang Mingbo snapped back to reality instantly and hurriedly ran towards the distant house.

As he ran, he noticed two figures leaping down a hillside on the other side of the creek.

The hillside wasn't very high, just a bit over four meters.

The two jumped into the soft field, rolled to dissipate most of the impact, and squatted back-to-back on the ground.

"You go first, once you're safe, inform Sister Wang that Tang Mingbo has already discovered this place and let her prepare," said the person holding the steel ball gun solemnly.

The other frowned and asked, "What about you?"

"I'll stay and see if I can take Tang Mingbo out directly."

"Alright, Eagle, be careful. Don't force it if you can't kill him."

With that, the person immediately got up and sprinted away.

The man left behind, nicknamed Eagle, then ran towards Tang Mingbo. Once within effective shooting range, he quickly raised his gun and fired.

"Bang bang bang bang bang!"

Behind Tang Mingbo, the soil flew instantly, giving one a heart-pounding feeling, like dancing on the blade's edge.

Thankfully, Tang Mingbo didn't panic and run blindly, otherwise, he might have turned into a sieve by now.

This was not something Xiao Feng could just stand by and watch.

As he had said before, the hope of finding Wang Tingwei now rested solely on Tang Mingbo.

If Tang Mingbo died, this clue would break, and finding her afterward would truly be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"Hurry up and protect..."

Xiao Feng turned to look at the driver behind him, intending to instruct him to protect Tang Mingbo, since he had noticed from some details on the way here that the driver was quite skilled.

But unexpectedly, the driver was running in the opposite direction of Tang Mingbo, heading straight for the parked car, seemingly planning to flee on his own.

"Damn!" Xiao Feng couldn't help but curse.

Even though skilled people get scared seeing a gun and run, it's not shameful. But with him running away, Tang Mingbo's safety was no longer assured.

In desperation, Xiao Feng quickly retreated, sprinted, and leapt across the nearly three-meter-wide creek, charging towards the gun-wielding Eagle.

Seeing Xiao Feng coming at him while reloading, Eagle hesitated for a moment before giving up the chase after Tang Mingbo, quickly stepping away to leave.

However, how could Xiao Feng give him a chance to escape? While chasing relentlessly, his eyes scoured the ground like a hawk, spotting a handy stone, he immediately bent down to pick it up.

During the stone-picking process, Xiao Feng didn't slow down at all, and the distance between them shortened even more.

Of course, Eagle wasn't idle either; he had already finished reloading while fleeing.

With the magazine loaded, he gradually slowed down, waiting for the right moment to turn and shoot.

Xiao Feng was naturally aware of his plan, and without hesitation, he used arm strength to drive wrist force, throwing the fist-sized stone in his hand.

"Whoosh!"

"Bang!"

"Ah!"

Three sounds occurred almost simultaneously.

When the noise subsided, Eagle was already lying on the ground, his steel ball gun out of hand, a pained expression on his face.

Xiao Feng wouldn't miss this opportunity and rushed in front of him, unleashing a storm of punches and kicks without a word.

"Ah ah ah ah ah... Stop, stop hitting!" Eagle screamed and begged for mercy.

Without pausing to catch his breath, Xiao Feng reached over and lifted Eagle's coat, angrily saying, "You damn well don't even wear a belt when you go out, do you have no shame?"

"I... It's an elastic rope, no need for a belt, and there's nowhere to put one," Eagle said, on the verge of tears.

Xiao Feng grabbed his shoulder, flipped him over, and then pulled the elastic rope out of his pants.

"You... you... I..."

Eagle, already beaten black and blue, was now full of terror in his eyes.

He'd never seen someone immediately yank out the elastic from a person's pants.

If this continues, wouldn't they just pull the pants off next?

Xiao Feng didn't give him time to let his thoughts run wild. After pulling out the elastic band, he immediately took both of Eagle's hands, wrapped the elastic rope around his wrists a few times, and tied a dead knot.

However, this didn't completely reassure Xiao Feng.

Compared to a belt, the elastic band was still not sturdy enough and could be broken free.

Thinking about this, Xiao Feng reached towards his own waistband.

But then he thought it was inappropriate, having spent over a thousand bucks on it; using it as a rope seemed a bit too extravagant.

As Eagle watched Xiao Feng's actions, the more he looked, the more frightened he became, and his body from mid-back downwards uncontrollably tensed up...

"Besides you two, is there anyone else ambushed?" Xiao Feng asked.

Eagle's body shook, and he replied with a trembling voice, "No, no more."

Xiao Feng temporarily breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that the house Tang Mingbo ran towards also had ambushes waiting for him to walk into a trap.

Now it seemed he didn't have to be so tense.

Relaxing his mind, Xiao Feng looked down and noticed Eagle's boots... shoelaces.

This made his eyes light up, and he squatted down, quickly removed Eagle's shoes, and then took off the shoelaces to bind Eagle's wrists.

Well, now it felt more secure.

"Who ordered you to kill Tang Mingbo?" Xiao Feng asked.

Eagle initially didn't want to answer, but worried that if he didn't, his pants would be pulled off immediately, he bit his lip and replied, "Wang Tingwei."

"Where is she now?"

"I really don't know."

Xiao Feng narrowed his eyes and sneered, "You don't know?"

"I really don't know, I swear to heaven!" Eagle said, almost in tears.

First, his pants' elastic band was pulled, then his shoelaces were taken.

This made him suspect that Xiao Feng had some peculiar fetish for long objects and just had to pull them?

If it were true, then the long thing between his legs might also suffer a misfortune?

Thinking of this, a cold chill rose from the soles of Eagle's feet, gradually permeating his body.

If that thing were gone, even if he survived, life would be worse than death!

Just then, Xiao Feng suddenly noticed a possible tattoo on Eagle's neck...

He reached over, intending to pull down Eagle's collar.

"Don't!" Eagle quickly lay flat on the ground, pleading, "I'm not some handsome guy, I'm uglier than most, can't you pick someone else to mess with?"

"???" Xiao Feng looked dumbfounded.

Mess with?

This word use... certainly a stroke of genius!
