Chapter 208: Enemies on a Narrow Road

On the streets of Hangzhou, the off-road vehicle sped along the smooth, wide highway.

Wind rushed in through the car windows, dispersing the sticky sweat on their skin, cool and refreshing.

Bai Youwei sat in the passenger seat, humming a song in a cheerful mood: “Little white rabbit, white and bright, two ears standing upright, loves to eat carrots and greens, hopping and jumping so cute~”

Tan Xiao chimed in from the back seat: “Haha! I know this one too! Let me recite one for you!”

He cleared his throat and recited with dramatic intonation: “Little white rabbit, white and bright, two ears standing upright, peel off the skin, chop into chunks, put it in the pot and stir it up, add some water, cover the lid, sprinkle coriander before serving!”

Before anyone else could react, he amused himself first, laughing “hahaha” non-stop.

“How was that? How was that? Don’t I deserve a like?” Tan Xiao raised his elbow and nudged Cheng Weicai. “Old Cheng, you do one too! Come on! Come on!~ The Chinese teacher should do one~”

Teacher Cheng couldn’t refuse and stroked his chin. “Alright, let me think… Ah, got it! I urge you to drink one cup, sir, do not decline; I urge you to drink a second cup, sir, do not doubt; I urge you to drink a third cup, sir, and you’ll begin to know…”

“Old Cheng, that won’t work!” Tan Xiao interrupted him. “There’s no little white rabbit, it doesn’t count, doesn’t count!”

“Aiya, I haven’t gotten to that part yet. Listen to me continue.” Cheng Weicai went on, “I urge you to drink a third cup, sir, and you’ll begin to know—your face today is older than yesterday, your heart when drunk surpasses when sober…”

Tan Xiao: “Doesn’t count, doesn’t count~ Still no little white rabbit!”

Cheng Weicai grew anxious. “Listen to me continue, it’s coming right up, the rabbit is coming!… Heaven and earth stretch far and endure long, the white rabbit and red crow chase each other running. After death, gold piled high reaches the Northern Dipper, but not as good as a cup of wine while living! See! Isn’t it there? White rabbit and red crow chase each other running—white rabbit, it’s there, right?”

Tan Xiao: “Hahahaha! Don’t understand it, but whatever, I’ll let you pass~”

Pan Xiaoxin sat silently beside them: “…”

Ever since this group found Fei Ge, ransacked Fei Ge’s place, emptied Fei Ge’s gasoline, and beat up Fei Ge’s gang, they’d basically been in a state of “singing and dancing” continuously.

…Are all adults this carried away?

“Kid! You’ve got good judgment!” Tan Xiao suddenly put his arm around Pan Xiaoxin’s shoulder. “You knew to rein in at the cliff’s edge and choose the right path! In the future, you’ll definitely have your place in the martial world!”

Teacher Cheng corrected: “It’s ‘rein in at the cliff’s edge’…”

“It’s close enough in meaning.” Tan Xiao shook Pan Xiaoxin. “Come, tell Xiao Ge, what were you thinking? Telling us their plan—aren’t you afraid they’ll retaliate?”

Pan Xiaoxin was shaken until dizzy.

Teacher Cheng said, “Don’t look at his young age. Children can also distinguish right from wrong. Xiaoxin is a good kid, of course he wouldn’t help tyrants do evil, right, Xiaoxin?”

Pan Xiaoxin: “…”

Actually, it was fine…

He just felt that Shen Mo and Bai Youwei’s side had more strength than Fei Ge’s side.

Seeking advantage and avoiding harm is human nature—even children understand this principle.

“Mo Ge, where are we going next?” Tan Xiao asked.

“First find a place to spend the night.” Shen Mo gripped the steering wheel, eyes looking straight ahead. “Going north is Jiaxing, going south is Shaoxing—both are places where mazes might appear…”

His words paused as he slowly decelerated.

Everyone looked out the car windows to see a severely congested highway ahead, and by the roadside, five people had set up camp. Three of them were exactly the guys who’d nearly gotten into a fight with them last time.

Tan Xiao instinctively whistled and said, “Enemies on a narrow road…”

Bai Youwei snorted disdainfully.
