"What are you afraid of, Tangtang? We have so many people here, don't be scared. Besides, there are so many tourists who co to Miaojiang each year, and they don't encounter these things, right? We won't encounter them either."
Another girl comforted her.
"No, I an things like leopards and wild beasts," Tangtang said worriedly.
"We have a guide with us, nothing to worry about," another girl said to the chubby guy from before, "Isn't that right, guide?"
"Huh?" The chubby guy was counting money and suddenly heard soone calling him, so he turned his head.
"Will we encounter any danger?"
"Danger? Of course not."
The chubby guy chuckled, "Don't worry, although this Miaojiang is full of poisonous insects and wild beasts like tigers, leopards, wolves, and bears, it's okay, as long as I'm here. I'm like a living map of Miaojiang; follow , and I guarantee we'll avoid those wild animals."
"Really?" Tangtang's eyes lit up, "What if we encounter robbers instead?"
"How could we possibly encounter robbers? That's such a low probability event, there's no way it'd happen to us," the chubby guy chuckled, "Don't worry, this is how travel goes."
After saying that, the chubby guy went back to his seat to continue counting money.
"Ladies, don't worry; there's no need to be concerned," at this mont, a man spoke up.
"Why shouldn't we worry?" Tangtang and a few other girls looked at him.
"Because I'm here," the man smiled slightly, "I'm a boxing champion, the national sanda champion. If robbers co, I'll beat them senseless; if wild beasts co, I'll tear them apart!"
"Really?" Tangtang's eyes brightened, and the other girls looked half-skeptically.
"Of course." The man's face grew more excited, "Let show you."
With that, the man stood up, flexed his arms, and instantly, his biceps showed, and the strong muscles on his chest were apparent even through his thin shirt.
That demonstration made the girls believe him instantly, and they scread excitedly, with Tangtang's eyes full of admiration.
Ren Feng took a glance, smiled slightly, and shook his head disdainfully, dismissing it as a re show of skill.
This small gesture, however, was unexpectedly noticed by the man, who, amidst the won's admiration, pointed at Ren Feng, "Soone like him, I could take on a dozen at once."
The girls laughed again upon seeing Ren Feng's deanor and hearing such words.
Ren Feng didn't even lift an eyelid, pretending not to hear.
"How did you build those muscles?" one girl interjected.
"Diet and exercise," the man struck another pose, "These muscles here were built over ti."
"Can we develop abs too?" another girl asked.
"Absolutely," the man's gaze shifted, "As long as the thod is right, you definitely can, and if I help, you'll get twice the results with half the effort."
The other girls started chatting, "Really? How do we do it? Teach us!"
"Sure, let's exchange contact info, and once we're out of Miaojiang, I'll teach you if there's a chance."
"Alright."
The girls all agreed.
Ren Feng was speechless inside, thinking it was such a lousy way to flirt, but Liang Keqing, who was sitting beside him, glanced at the man, shook her head gently, "All show, no substance."
Her voice was small, but Ren Feng heard it, and he asked with interest, "Why 'all show, no substance'?"
Liang Keqing was a bit surprised and turned to look at Ren Feng.
"That pose isn't aggressive and can't really harm an enemy. My dad told to never need a second move if one move will do," she said.
Ren Feng was slightly surprised and smiled, "You know martial arts?"
"Of course," Liang Keqing tossed her head with a face full of pride and confidence, "My dad taught all my martial arts; he's really strong, a Grandmaster."
"I'd love to et him if there's a chance," Ren Feng replied with a smile.
At this mont, Ren Feng beca a bit interested in Liang Keqing. He hadn't expected this young woman, appearing to be only in her early twenties, to know martial arts, showing good insight and likely skilled in martial arts.
Could she be from the martial arts world?
Ren Feng speculated but didn't ask more since getting to Miao Village to find the Yin Spirit Essence Fruit was crucial. The Yang Tribulation on him was becoming harder to suppress recently, so speed was essential.
The bus was still heading forward, and the chubby guy in front introduced, "Everyone look, we are entering the mountains now, but we're not at our destination yet; there's still so distance to go. You can look out the window at the views; this is Miaojiang!"
The passengers turned to look outside, and those green mountains were indeed lush, and the sky was very blue, with no trace of smog.
"This is not Miaojiang," Liang Keqing whispered.
Ren Feng's heart stirred upon hearing this.
"By around tonight, we'll reach our destination, which is a little cabin in the mountains. You'll be free to explore once we arrive."
"Fantastic," the tourists on the bus were already excited.
Ren Feng took another look out the window; it was already quite secluded, surrounded by mountains and a forest, as if entirely undeveloped.
The man and a few won, including Tangtang, were still chatting when suddenly the bus made an abrupt stop.
"What's going on?" everyone looked forward and saw a disheveled man blocking the bus.
"What's the deal?" the chubby guy looked annoyed, "I need to head back for more passengers later; this is costing money. Open the door."
The driver opened the door, and the chubby guy leaned out to see the man coming over and started cursing, "Damn it, don't you have eyes..."
Suddenly, the chubby guy felt sothing cold pressed against his chest.
The chubby guy froze completely, looked down, and saw a black handgun.
Gulp!
The chubby guy swallowed hard.
Damn, they really encountered a robbery; that girl from before was a jinx!
The chubby guy was inwardly crying, forcing a smile, "Hey, brother, hello, I don't really have much... ah!"
Before he could finish, the man grabbed him and tossed him to the ground. At the sa ti, several people suddenly darted out from the surrounding forest, wielding shiny weapons, and rushed towards the bus.
