Chapter 131: Lin Shiyou

As soon as Chen Fan and Xia Zhiqiu walked out, the group surrounded them.

"Boss, Senior Brother Xia, any gains?"

Chen Fan nodded and said: "The girl's name is Lin Shiyou, and she just left not long ago. Let's split up to inquire; we might still be able to catch up."

"She just left?" The group hurriedly chased outside.

"Wen Hua, your strength is slightly weaker, so it's not suitable for you to act alone. Come with me." Chen Fan took Wen Hua with him and chased in one direction.

Tianshan City is very different from other cities; it is extremely chaotic. Although the sunset had not yet sunk in the west, most of the storefronts on both sides of the street were already closed, and almost no pedestrians could be seen on the street.

The two walked along the street for nearly a kilometer before seeing a shop that hadn't closed yet.

This was a food shop named "Old Soldier Steamed Bun Shop." There were no diners left in the shop, only the owner was still cleaning up, clearly also preparing to close.

Chen Fan and the other pushed open the half-covered glass door and walked in.

The owner was a middle-aged uncle. He seemed to be hemiplegic, and he limped extremely severely when he walked.

He put down the steamer he was holding and said to Chen Fan and the other with a slight apology: "Sorry, young men, the steamed buns are sold out. Come back tomorrow; I'm also preparing to close."

Although this person had inconvenient legs and feet, his waist was straight, and the temperament that a soldier once had could still be faintly seen on him.

"No wonder it's called Old Soldier Steamed Bun Shop." Chen Fan understood.

He couldn't help but think of the retired old soldiers outside Qingcheng City who fought fearlessly to resist the beast tide. He felt a sense of awe in his heart and said politely: "Uncle, we are not here to buy steamed buns; we just want to ask you if a girl with twin ponytails passed by just now."

"Why are you asking about this?" The owner stopped what he was doing, and his expression became vigilant.

"Uncle, she is our friend. We got separated just now, so we wanted to ask if you have seen her." Chen Fan had already thought of an excuse.

"Oh, oh, I see." The owner looked the two up and down. Seeing that they were not old and were polite, he felt relieved.

"That girl bought a few steamed buns from me and just left not long ago."

"We found the right direction!" Chen Fan and the other felt happy in their hearts, hurriedly thanked him, and were about to chase after her.

However, before the two walked out of the door, the owner's voice came from behind again.

"Young men, wait a moment, help me take this to that girl."

After the owner finished speaking, he stuffed an old envelope into Chen Fan's hand.

"What is this?" Chen Fan was a bit surprised. He glanced inside and saw that it contained some scattered paper money.

The owner sighed and said: "That girl is kind-hearted. Every time she comes to buy steamed buns from me, she gives extra money."

"I have difficulty moving, so I couldn't refuse her, but I put all the extra money she gave every time inside. Please help me return it to that girl and say thank you to her for me."

"Don't worry, Uncle." Chen Fan pondered slightly and then tucked it into his bosom.

He felt a little moved in his heart. He took out some hundred-yuan bills from his space ring and quietly stuffed them into the pocket of this disabled old soldier before leaving with Wen Hua.

"This girl is quite kind-hearted." Wen Hua said to Chen Fan. At this time, he was full of curiosity about the girl they were looking for.

But Chen Fan didn't answer. He was a bit puzzled why a retired old soldier would end up like this. It should be known that the government's treatment of retired soldiers is very good, and they could live their second half of their lives without worry.

After the two walked along the alley for a few more minutes, noisy sounds came from the quiet street.

"Stop her, don't let her run again. Today I must skin her alive!"

"Little bitch, you actually dared to use poison to plot against us last time. Even if the Heavenly King himself comes today, he won't be able to protect you!"

The voices in front were extremely furious, and there was a lot of noise, clearly there were quite a few people.

"Let's go, let's go over and take a look!" Chen Fan and Wen Hua looked at each other and hurriedly chased in the direction of the voices.

At this time, on the street not far away, a girl was fleeing in a panic, and behind her were several men holding weapons chasing closely.

This girl wore twin ponytails. Although she didn't have a stunning appearance, she had bright eyes and white teeth, and was lively and cute, completely matching the image of the girl Chen Fan was looking for!

At this time, she was fleeing in a sorry state toward Chen Fan's side, and the steamed buns in her hand had long been scattered all over the ground.

"Hurry up and get out of the way, don't block the road!" This girl looked anxious, afraid of being intercepted by Chen Fan.

At the same time, the group of men behind were also shouting loudly: "You pretty boy in front, stop that little bitch, otherwise we'll skin you alive too!"

"Pretty boy?" Chen Fan's mouth twitched. Both he and Wen Hua were of the delicate type, but being called a pretty boy really hit Chen Fan's trigger point.

He silently took down the "Zhuidian" on his back, feeling cold in his heart: "Don't blame me for being ruthless later."

"Girl, hide behind me. After I deal with this group of guys later, I have something to ask you." Chen Fan said lightly to the woman who rushed over.

The other party showed a look of surprise in her eyes. She originally thought Chen Fan took down his weapon to make a move on her.

She couldn't see through Chen Fan's strength, but since he was about the same age as her, she thought he couldn't be that strong and definitely couldn't be a match for the group of mercenaries behind her.

"Hey, hurry up and run, there are Tier 3 ability users among them!"

"Tier 3?" Chen Fan glanced at the crowd and felt disdain in his heart: "They are all just at the early stage!"

Chen Fan planted his long spear on the ground, having the posture of one man holding the pass and ten thousand men unable to open it: "If you retreat now, you might still escape a disaster!"

This group of mercenaries had at least Tier 2 strength; how could they be scared by the kid in front of them? Everyone showed disdain and rushed toward Chen Fan with knives.

"Damn kid, if you want to be a hero, you have to see if your hair has grown out yet!"

"Hero saving the beauty? Give him some color to look at!"

A Tier 3 early-stage man took three steps in two, flew up, and with flames rising on his long knife, slashed fiercely at Chen Fan.

Chen Fan's mind moved, holding the spear with one hand, and with lightning speed, he pointed the spear at the opponent's blade.

Clang! With a crisp sound, this plain and unadorned spear strike shattered the flames on the opponent's knife with one blow.

"What?!" This man was shocked and wanted to withdraw and retreat, but it was already too late.

The next moment, the long spear moved again, like a spirit snake exploring a cave. Amidst the changing spear shadows, a bloody hole appeared on his chest, and his body instantly flew backward more than ten meters away.

"Yuan Kui!" The crowd was shocked. At this time, the man vomited blood and fell to the ground, life or death unknown!

"Kid, you hurt my brother, you are looking for death!" Another person jumped up violently, a tiger evil phantom appeared behind him, and he punched Chen Fan.

Chen Fan felt disdain, shattered the opponent's fist momentum with one spear strike, and the next moment the long spear whipped onto his head.

Bang, the figure flew backward, and instantly fell to the ground, unable to get up.

Chen Fan made two moves and shocked everyone present. They couldn't imagine how such a young man could have such strength.

Chen Fan looked down at the "Zhuidian" in his hand, feeling shocked in his heart. Is this the Master-level Spear Technique?

However, this group of mercenaries quickly broke free from the shock.

"Attack together, even if this kid's spear technique is powerful, he can't block all of our attacks, right!" ===== CHAPTER 132 =====
