?27: Chapter 24 My Name is Lei Feng 27: Chapter 24 My Name is Lei Feng Linchuan City, long-distance bus station.

    A long-distance bus left the station, already packed with passengers, heading towards the highway of Linchuan City.

    It didn’t take long for the bus to leave Linchuan City and start heading towards its destination.

    The ultimate destination of the bus was a place called Jingyang County, which is the most remote and distant county within Jingyang City, and this was also Li Chen’s destination.

    He had started out from Jingyang County, later made a name for himself, went abroad, earned the title of King of the Netherworld, and now he was on his way back, with all these past events flashing through his mind.

    Sitting in his seat, Li Chen didn’t look at the scenery outside the window.

    He closed his eyes, seemingly listless.

    He was resting, returning to Linchuan had really tired him out, a series of events and conspiracies behind them gave him a sense of being overwhelmed.

    After an hour and a half, the bus turned onto a rather secluded road, officially leaving the area of Linchuan City, and the view outside the windows gradually changed to that of towns and villages.

    Li Chen felt drowsy from sitting so long on the bus when, at that moment, the two girls in the same row on his left looked at the scenery outside the window and couldn’t help expressing their worries, “Could there be robbers or something in this kind of place?”

    “Oh, Wenwen, how could that be?” another girl comforted her, “Don’t worry, I’ve ridden this long without encountering anything, and we’re only a few stops away from getting off.”

    “Even if a robber comes, there’s no need to be afraid.” Just then, a young man sitting diagonally from Li Chen turned his head to interject.

    He was average-looking, with a smile on his face.

    “Why not be afraid?” Wenwen asked, while several other girls on the bus also turned their gazes towards the man.

    “Because I’m here,” the man said with a slight smile, “I’m the national Sanda champion.

    A mere robber?

    I’d send him reeling.”

    “Really?” Wenwen’s eyes brightened, and the other girls also looked half-convinced, half-doubtful.

    “Of course,” said the man, more excited, “Let me show you.”

    With that, he stood up and bent his arms, immediately showcasing his biceps.

    The strong muscles in his chest were also unmistakable even through his thin clothes.

    This convinced the girls, who squealed with excitement, and Wenwen’s eyes were filled with admiration.

    Li Chen, with his eyes closed, glanced over, saw the empty show of force, and, uninterested, turned his head to continue sleeping.

    However, the man noticed this small gesture and, amidst the girls’ admiring looks, he pursed his lips, “For someone like him, I could take on a dozen alone.”

    The girls saw Li Chen’s posture, heard these words, and burst into another round of laughter.

    Li Chen didn’t even lift his eyelids, pretending he hadn’t heard.

    “How did you build those muscles?” another girl joined the conversation.

    “Diet and exercise,” the man struck another pose, “You see these muscles here?

    They took multiple efforts to build.”

    “Can we develop abs like yours?” yet another girl asked.

    “Of course,” the man’s gaze shifted, “if you do it the right way, definitely.

    And if I help you, you’d get twice the result with half the effort.”

    The other girls got excited as well, “Really?

    Really?

    Then how do we train, teach us.”

    “How about this, give me your phone numbers, and if there’s time we can meet up in Linchuan City, and then I can teach you.”

    “Yeah, okay.”

    All the girls agreed.

    Li Chen thought to himself, what a poor pick-up technique, did he really need something like this to pick up girls when a beautiful wife would just throw herself at him?

    The bus continued onwards, and the scenery outside the window was now of the hinterlands; in a few hours, they would reach Jingyang City.

    Jingyang City was quite a famous tourist city, but Jingyang County under its jurisdiction was largely unknown.

    Given its extreme remoteness, hardly anyone had ever visited, let alone the small village beneath Jingyang County.

    The man and the girls continued to chat when suddenly, after stopping at a station where five new passengers boarded, the bus resumed its journey.

    “Did you know?

    During the national Sanda championship, I took down my opponent in just three moves in the first round,” the man continued to boast.

    Li Chen, with his eyes closed, thought to himself, how this man was like a crow.

    Yet the girls seemed to enjoy his stories; the journey was boring, and having someone to chat with was quite nice.

    The bus kept moving toward Jingyang City, needing to pass through a large mountain.

    The place was very isolated and just at that moment, suddenly, a loud shout on the bus rang out, “Don’t move!

    This is a robbery!”

    The five passengers who had boarded earlier pulled out weapons hidden in their belongings; one of them quickly gained control of the driver while the other four pointed guns at the passengers.

    “Screech—”

    The sound of the bus abruptly braking filled the air, and the bus went silent in an instant.

    “Hurry up, everyone hand over your money to us, brothers,” the robbers, besides the one controlling the driver, started to threaten the passengers.

    Everyone was somewhat dazed, with Wenwen looking completely petrified as if asking, “How could there be a robbery?”

    The other girls were also terrified, never having encountered such a situation before.

    A robber approached Li Chen; the passenger sitting next to him, without needing much intimidation, quickly fumbled for his wallet and, as he pulled it out, the robber snatched it away.
