The Magnificent Son-in-law

Chapter 680 - 680: Dangerous Overtaking on the Highway

  • Next Chapter

Hui Yi and the others stood still, looking at the closed monastery doors, their emotions incredibly complex.

There was reluctance, there was nostalgia.

As if they knew that stepping out of the monastery this time, there would be no chance to return.

Even if there is, it would take a very long time.

"Why don't I take a photo of you?" the little girl suggested.

"Hey, that's a good idea." Hui Shiba was the first to agree.

The others also nodded one after another.

Hui Yi instructed the junior brothers to stand properly, nine standing at the back, nine squatting at the front, with a standard smile on their faces.

"Click!"

The shutter snapped, and the photo immediately came out.

The little girl handed the photo to Hui Yi and said, "There's a date at the bottom right corner, keep it as a memento. When you get to Jiangcheng, you can scan a dozen copies, one for each of you."

"Thank you." Hui Yi sincerely expressed gratitude.

As soon as the words fell, Hui Ba pointed to the east and exclaimed: "Look, auspicious clouds!"

Xiao Feng and the others turned their heads simultaneously, seeing a colorful cloud hanging in the distant sky horizon, indescribably brilliant, as if the Celestial Palace Fairy was watching over the mortal realm.

The little girl did not hesitate to press the shutter, capturing this rare moment.

The printed photo eerily resembled a scene from a comic book, it was beautiful, but somewhat artificially beautiful, like it was synthesized.

Of course, this was related to the camera itself, the instant camera ultimately couldn't match a professional DSLR.

"Auspicious signs have appeared, which means everything will sail smoothly for us in the future." Hui Er said excitedly.

Xiao Feng did not spoil the mood for the Martial Monks at this moment, though he still thought in his heart, this auspicious sign... might as well call it auspicious.

It should have appeared for the monks in the monastery.

Because for the monks in the monastery, Hui Yi and the others' departure meant the sudden absence of eighteen who exerted authority over them.

However, what Xiao Feng didn't know was that their group's departure was also a celebratory event for the neighbors around their quadrangle courtyard.

People, always see others, but not themselves.

...

For safety's sake, Xiao Feng chose to travel back to Jiangcheng with a semi-truck.

He sat in the back seat, took a glance at the time, and asked: "How long will it roughly take to get there?"

"If there are no traffic jams, it'll take at least five hours." The driver in the front row, Old Cui, answered.

This was unavoidable; on the highway, heavy trucks like these could only drive in the slow lane, making it difficult to speed up, which increased travel time.

Of course, others traveling by bus would be slightly faster, but not by a significant margin.

At this moment, Old Cui, who had just tossed a betel nut into his mouth, suddenly cursed: "Is this dogshit idiot serious?"

While swearing, he quickly looked toward the right rearview mirror, found no cars, and immediately turned the steering wheel to the right.

"What's happening?" Xiao Feng frowned.

On the front passenger seat, Little Stone turned his head and explained, "There's a container truck upfront that changed lanes without signaling, if Brother Cui's reaction was even two seconds slower, there would have been an accident by now."

Xiao Feng's eyes narrowed, instantly realizing the problem.

No matter if it's on the highway, provincial roads, or national roads, no matter if it's luxury cars or ordinary cars, no matter if it's an experienced driver or a rookie.

It can be said that unless he's crazy or foolish, when seeing such a big semi-truck, one should either brake to slow down and maintain a safe distance.

Or step on the gas pedal to overtake, close following or parallel driving is not a good choice, let alone changing lanes to block the truck.

As he thought about it, Old Cui slammed his fist onto the steering wheel.

"Beep beep!"

The whistle sounded urgently.

This time, even Little Stone couldn't help but curse: "Is this son of a bitch crazy?"

"Is it still that container truck causing trouble?" Xiao Feng asked.

Old Cui nodded, holding the steering wheel tightly and said nervously: "This bastard is repeatedly braking in front, looks like he's trying to force us to stop."

After listening, Xiao Feng was thoughtful, knowing his temper, charging ahead would be the best choice without thinking.

But the problem is, considering from the overall perspective, although it's venting, it would bring trouble.

Therefore, despite being very angry, he had to calm down and solve the problem in another way.

"Slow down, stabilize the speed around forty." Xiao Feng ordered in a commanding tone.

"Alright." Old Cui responded, stepping on the clutch and downshifting.

"You! Come to the back." Xiao Feng patted Little Stone's shoulder, thumb pointing backward, and made room.

Little Stone was stunned: "What do you want to do?"

Xiao Feng impatiently replied: "Just do what I say, stop asking questions in front of me!"

Meanwhile, in the front row of the container truck, Liu Bapi kept driving, watching the rearview mirror with an unspeakably fierce expression.

"Brother Pi, I told you, they wouldn't dare to collide." Zhang Shuai said on the passenger seat: "It's exactly as I, oh no, as you analyzed, they must be carrying illegal goods in their truck."

In the eyes of ordinary people, the term 'illegal goods' means absolutely no chance to get close.

But for someone like Liu Bapi, what he sees is stacks of cash, how could he not get involved?

At this moment, one of the people constantly looking backward in the rear seat suddenly widened his eyes and exclaimed: "Boss, look at the rear."

Upon hearing this, Liu Bapi looked toward the rearview mirror, showing an equally incredulous expression.

Because in the rearview mirror, Xiao Feng had somehow appeared on top of the semi-truck.

He was half squatting, his gaze sharp like a hawk, locked onto the container truck.

"Courting death!" Liu Bapi sneered: "Use the Hand Crossbow to shoot him down."

The person in the back hesitated: "Boss, that really could turn lethal."

"Cut the crap, I want him dead!" Liu Bapi roared.

At this moment, Zhang Shuai reached out: "Give me the crossbow, I'll do it!"

Liu Bapi glanced surprisedly at Zhang Shuai beside him, smiled: "Didn't expect you to be quite the ruthless type. Okay, if this works out, you'll work for me."

"Thank you, Brother Pi!" Zhang Shuai's voice changed with excitement.

On the roof, Xiao Feng tapped twice with his fingers on the rooftop.

This was the prearranged signal, one tap meant slowing down, two taps meant accelerating, and quick successive taps meant braking.

Soon, Xiao Feng clearly felt the speed increasing, and the distance to the container truck ahead gradually closing.

But just as he was about to assume a jumping stance, Zhang Shuai's head popped out from the container truck in front, holding a Hand Crossbow.

"Da!"

A steel bead spun towards Xiao Feng, almost indiscernible to the naked eye.

Xiao Feng's pupils suddenly contracted and without hesitation, chose to lie down.

The trajectory of the steel bead was unknown, but it didn't hit Xiao Feng.

The reason for choosing to lie down was that when aiming, only a sniper extremely confident in his shot would choose to aim at the legs, most aim for the more easily hit upper body.

"Dong dong!"

Xiao Feng tapped twice again on the rooftop, signaling to continue accelerating.
