C214: Attacks
The training room was not big. The light shone on the transparent glass, and the waves were sparkling. It was a mysterious and tranquil beauty.
Tang Zheng began to search, the room did not have any cabinets or other storage areas, it was simply empty.
Seeing that he had already searched twice, he still did not find anything. Mu Hongyan said: "Ever since my husband's death, I have rarely come to this room and I have never touched the bricks and wood inside."
Tang Zheng stopped, as he lowered his head in contemplation. Magic treasures were very important so of course they could not be placed in the open.
He believed that Daoist Tianji must have secretly snuck into this house and searched everywhere, so this training room naturally would not be forgiven.
However, Daoist Tianji was still like him. If he was still unable to find anything, then that meant that Magic treasures was not something that could be easily found.
"Could it be that the magic treasure is somewhere else?" Tang Zheng was unable to come up with an answer and asked: "Does he have any other places he would like to stay?"
Mu Hongyan shook her head: "He spends most of his time in the training room."
"I've already searched twice and I haven't missed a single detail. Why haven't I found any clues?" Tang Zheng shook his head, feeling very puzzled.
"Did he take the Magic treasures somewhere else? Perhaps I am not fated to be hit by this magic treasure?" Tang Zheng could not help to feel discouraged.
This continued to drag on until dawn, but there was no need for it. This caused Tang Zheng to shake his head in disappointment as he did not continue searching and left the training room together with Mu Hongyan.
"Tang Zheng, I'm sorry but I really don't have any other useful information to provide." Mu Hongyan said ashamedly.
Tang Zheng lightly said: "Magic treasures can only be found by chance, don't worry, I still know how to teach your darling technique, but during this period of time when Li Xiaotian is here I am afraid that she will discover it, so when Nannan grows up a bit more, I will personally teach her a cultivation technique."
Mu Hongyan smiled in relief: "Thank you."
The two separated, and Tang Zheng once again secretly made his way to Fang Shishi's room. Tang Zheng truthfully told Fang Shishi of their conversation and Fang Shishi advised him not to worry about it.
For the next few days, the group did not stay idle as they followed Mu Hongyan's lead and visit the mountains and rivers of Dian Nan. The scenery of Dian Nan was indeed beautiful, leaving behind the most natural scenery, causing Tang Zheng and Fang Shishi, who have lived in the city since they were young, to feel especially happy.
Tang Zheng temporarily put down his hope of finding a magical treasure, as he was immersed in the mountains and rivers, he discovered a bit of clues. The Ling Qi between mountains and rivers was clearly thicker than in the city, and there was even more spiritual than in Chang Heng Mountain. If it wasn't for Li Xiaotian who was covetously watching him from the side, he would have already used the Spirit Gathering Pill to absorb the Lin Qi in the forest and quietly cultivated for a period of time.
Today, several people drove the car to visit the highest and most dangerous fairy peak in Dian Nan. The legend said that there were fairies who descended from ancient times, hence the name of this mountain.
The Fairy Peak was precipitous. Only one winding mountain road led up to the mountain. Most of the tourists were using means of travel, and very few people hiked the mountain.
Tang Zheng and a few others of course took a car to go up the mountain. After looking around and seeing that the sky was already dark, they took a car and descended the mountain. Mu Hongyan personally drove while Tang Zheng sat in the front passenger seat, holding Nannan in his arms.
This little girl was becoming increasingly attached to Tang Zheng, wishing for nothing more than to hang on to him, as she had more authority than a true girlfriend Fang Shishi.
However, no one bothered with her as a child. Instead, they found her incredibly adorable.
The car was moving at a uniform speed, and there was a bend in the road ahead. Suddenly, there was an intense collision sound, and then the entire car felt as if it was about to fly up into the air.
"Be careful!" Tang Zheng gave a loud shout and saw from the rearview mirror that a huge SUV had crashed into their rear end.
"There's a car accident!" Mu Hongyan also felt this and hurriedly cried out: "Everyone, don't panic!"
This group of people were no ordinary people. Other than the initial panic, they did not make a fuss.
"Our car is still skidding forward. Be careful." Tang Zheng reminded, Mu Hongyan hurriedly stepped on the brakes, but the car's forward momentum and did not stop as the SUV behind was like a roaring wild beast that charged towards their rear end.
In the blink of an eye, their car was pushed to the edge of the cliff at the bend and smashed into the railings.
Their hearts sank. This was not a car accident, but rather a planned assassination attempt to knock them off the cliff.
Tang Zheng cried out in shock: "Shishi, hurry up and open the car door!"
Fang Shishi's reaction was fast but Li Xiaotian's reaction was faster than her. She unbuckled her seat belt and kicked open the deformed car door. Like a leopard, she bent her body and charged out.
Bang! Bang!
The sound of two heavy gunshots rang out, and the group of people were dumbstruck. The assassin had actually used a gun, this was too big of a decision.
"Shishi, be careful of the gun." Tang Zheng reminded.
Fang Shishi loudly cried out "Understood", as she arched her body and rushed out of the car. A bullet just happened to land at the car door, and if she was a second late she would have been hit by the bullet.
"These people are not ordinary people." Tang Zheng thought inwardly, but he did not have the time to think about who the other sent and their target was. Right now the only thought in his mind was to escape.
Even though he wanted to escape, Mu Hongyan was not that easy to escape since she did not know martial arts and in her panic she did not even have time to unbuckle her seat belt. Then, with a loud bang, the car crashed into the railings causing half of the car to be suspended in midair while Mu Hongyan's side of the car door was severely deformed by the impact. The force of the impact froze her in her seat.
She unconsciously let out a pitiful cry. Seeing the situation, Nannan loudly cried out. She was in Tang Zheng's embrace and was not injured but when the little child saw this scene, she unconsciously felt fear.
"Mom …" Nannan cried out in pain as Mu Hongyan loudly cried out: "Tang Zheng, hurry and save Nannan. Don't worry about me."
"You persist for a bit, if I bring Nannan out then I will come save you."
This matter was too urgent for Tang Zheng to ponder as he kicked off the car door and rushed out.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A hail of bullets splattered around Tang Zheng, leaving behind a trail of dust. Tang Zheng was unable to put Nannan down so he could only tightly hold her in his embrace to prevent her from getting hit by the bullets.
With a casual glance, he saw four pitch-black gun muzzles poking out of the SUV's window, sweeping towards them.
Dammit, who was this person that dared to use such a powerful firepower?
Tang Zheng gnashed his teeth in hatred, but discovered that Fang Shishi and Li Xiaotian were both lying on the floor, not daring to show their heads. These gunners were too hateful as they must know that they know martial arts, so they did not stop their firepower.
"This can't go on." Tang Zheng turned his head to take a glance and discovered that the car's body was already leaning towards the cliff. If he did not take care of these few gunmen then he would not have the time to save Mu Hongyan.
So, she sent Nannan into Fang Shishi's embrace and warned: "Protect Nannan. Be careful yourself as well, I will deal with these people."
"Be careful." This was Fang Shishi's first time seeing such a thrilling scene, and she could not help but feel excitement and fear.
Whiz!
Tang Zheng charged out, the bullet flew past his body, and with a roar he casually waved his hand, causing a few stones he picked up to be shot through the windscreen.
Puff!
Under the broken windshield, the driver was hit by a rock on the spot and fell onto the steering wheel.
Suddenly, the SUV sped up and at this close distance, Tang Zheng could see the shock on the other gunners face. They clearly did not expect Tang Zheng's reaction speed to be so fast and moreover, the driver stepped on the gas before he died ,so the SUV charged towards Tang Cheng like a runaway horse.
Tang Zheng hurriedly moved aside and saw the SUV fly past him. Tang Zheng's hands were fast as he grabbed onto the car window and flew up to the roof of the car.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The gunners discovered Tang Zheng's tracks, and one by one they aimed at the roof and pulled the trigger, but Tang Zheng did not stay on the roof as he nimbly jumped over the roof and landed on the other side. From the other side of the window, he punched a gunner in the face, and at that moment the gunner's face exploded in a shower of blood and he died on the spot.
Tang Zheng's rage was stoked as just this one punch was enough to kill him.
The remaining two gunmen shouted, "Fire! Shoot him! Shoot him!"
The sound of gunfire rang out, but two gunmen had died. The danger Tang Zheng felt was greatly reduced and Tang Zheng was able to easily grab onto the copilot's outstretched hand. With a fierce tug, the gun arrived in his hand.
Tang Zheng did not hesitate as he turned his gun and aimed at the other gunner in the back seat and pulled the trigger. Even though Tang Zheng had never used a gun before, he was still able to move his hand at such a close distance. Moreover, his palm felt a bit of recoil and the gun did not move at all as the bullet flew out and completely entered the enemy's body.
When the last gunner saw this scene, his face turned pale with fright. He screamed out in fear and was about to fight back.
Tang Zheng fiercely slammed the gun onto the other's head, blood flowed out, and the gunner fainted.
"Tang Zheng, be careful!" Suddenly, Fang Shishi let out a cry of shock. Tang Zheng did not even have time to react when he felt a wave of force collide with him. If he had not firmly grabbed onto the car window he would have been sent flying.
Following that, he saw a frightening scene. The SUV crashed into Mu Hongyan's car and the two cars fell off the cliff at the same time.
Tang Zheng's body was also in the middle of the air, as he felt a gust of cold wind blowing up the cliff causing him to unconsciously break out in a cold sweat.
Mu Hongyan's scream rang out from within the car and Tang Zheng did not even think as he leaped up ,and two cars and one person descended rapidly.
