Chapter 50

Hidden among the crowd, Lin Zheng smiled at the corner of his mouth and another stone shot out. However, this time there was no sound or movement, and it headed straight for the fatty's buttocks, drawing a strange arc as if it had merged into the air, then fiercely struck a large part of the fatty's body!

"Ouch, which bastard hit Fat Master's buttocks?" The fatty, in pain, couldn't help but curse, but his body didn't stop, and he continued to run quickly without looking back.

Lin Zheng felt extremely pleased and pinched his voice to shout, "Brothers, pick up whatever you can and hit him!"

This instantly reminded everyone, and they all took out various hidden weapons or low-grade crystal stones, and even some took out fruits. For a moment, the sky was filled with a dark mass heading towards the fatty.

"Damn! That inhumane guy, Fat Master will never let you off!" The fatty let out a strange cry, and his speed increased by three times, leaving various hidden weapons behind him.

Under the interference of the crowd, the fatty's speed gradually slowed down. Seeing this, everyone was delighted. It turned out to be such a trick? So everyone threw various items even more enthusiastically.

At this moment, the fatty didn't even have the chance to curse, constantly dodging and then speeding up to leave. Just as the fatty was about to pull away, that voice that made him go berserk sounded again.

"Brothers, don't forget to release the spirit beasts, attack from the sky and the ground!"

"Go to hell!" The fatty roared in anger, but his body didn't dare to stop for a moment!

Instantly, the fatty's situation became even more critical. At this point, Lin Zheng had played enough and quietly slipped out of the crowd. Then Lin Zheng quietly tore a piece of his clothes to cover his face and disappeared from the spot.

At this moment, the fatty was running for his life. He knew that if he was caught, the outcome would be very bad. That hateful old man, that hateful instigator. Just as he was about to be caught by the crowd, the fatty gritted his teeth and prepared to use his ultimate move, when a somewhat familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of him. Before the fatty could react, the person grabbed him and jumped out of the range of the crowd's pursuit, then the two quickly fled!

The crowd, who were still throwing things, were suddenly stunned.

"What just happened?"

"Damn! Someone is snatching the business!"

"The fatty almost got caught, and the shameless guy took the fruit!"

"Don't worry, we'll go to the elders and wait. Once someone comes to claim the reward, hey, hey, hey!"

So everyone left with a sinister smile, preparing to wait for the fatty! If you dare to come, you're a fool!

Speaking of which, Lin Zheng had brought the fatty away from the crowd's pursuit. The two quickly ran towards the small house where Lin Zheng used to live. Since Lin Zheng's house was empty, it had become the fatty's place to stay, and this place was remote, so not many people would come here!

"Phew!" The fatty panted and said, "Thank you, brother, for your help!"

"Hehe, who are we to each other!" Lin Zheng took off the face covering and grinned at the fatty.

The fatty, upon hearing this voice, jumped up as if he had been pricked in the buttocks, and with wide eyes said, "Damn, damn, damn! It's you, you guy! Didn't you go down the mountain? Why did you come back?"

"Hehe, I'm preparing for a long journey, so I came up the mountain to take a look. I didn't expect that, fatty, you've become even more popular with everyone!"

"Don't talk about it, it's all tears!"

"What happened?"

"This has to be explained from shortly after you two went down the mountain..."

It turned out that after Lin Zheng and the fatty went down the mountain, the fatty was taken by the old man for special training. However, the old man didn't seem to teach the fatty anything, but instead took him around to harass the female disciples within the sect. The old man had a knack for making the fatty take the blame, and every time the fatty would be pushed out to take the fall. Especially now, the old man no longer hid his intentions and had even more ways to make the fatty take the blame!

"And, he actually made me steal a thousand pieces of women's underwear to join the sect!" The fatty's face was full of anger.

"Wha?" Lin Zheng's face was full of black lines, and he asked, "How many have you stolen so far?"

"Exactly one hundred pieces, including today!"

"Wow, you're quite something! On average, one piece every three days over the past year, no wonder everyone in the sect is out to kill you! What about those elders?"

"It's all the old man's fault. He stole the clothes of a few elders and hid them in the back mountain, telling me that one piece was worth ten. I didn't know they were the elders' clothes. Just as I got them, the old man suddenly appeared with a group of people, and then..." The fatty sighed deeply!

Lin Zheng, trying to hold back his laughter, said, "Why don't you find another master?"

"Are you stupid? You should know the old man's abilities!" The fatty said with a look of disdain.

"Right, you're just asking for it, you deserve to be attacked from the sky and the ground!" Lin Zheng teased.

The fatty suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Wait, repeat what you just said."

"You deserve to be attacked from the sky and the ground!" As soon as Lin Zheng said it, he knew it was bad and quickly disappeared from the spot. The next moment, the fatty appeared where Lin Zheng had been standing!

"Damn, it's you, it's you who was instigating in the crowd, even changing your voice, Fat Master will fight you to the death!" The fatty, with a face full of anger, was ready to fight Lin Zheng to the death! He knew how dangerous it had been, and if not for Lin Zheng's change of heart, the fatty's several hundred pounds would have been left there!

Lin Zheng, knowing he was in the wrong, quickly took out a specially made large soft armor from his ring to bribe the fatty. The fatty stopped and calmly accepted the gift, then extended his hand, rubbing his thumb and index finger together!

"Not bad! Anything else?"

Lin Zheng then took out a large bracelet made of the skin of a hundred-flower python and handed it over.

The fatty continued to rub his thumb and index finger, and then Lin Zheng kicked him directly.

After a while of commotion, the two finally sat down calmly. Lin Zheng, playing with the bracelet, said to the fatty, "Fatty, I'm going down the mountain tomorrow, and I might leave here!"

"Do you need help? What are you going to do?" The fatty, wearing the bracelet on his chubby hand, said, not caring that it was somewhat feminine!

Lin Zheng felt a warm feeling in his heart, shook his head, and said, "No, I don't think you can help much with this. If you get involved, it might bring you big trouble!"

"Am I the kind of person who fears trouble? Here, take this!" The fatty handed over a purple-golden token with a large "Pang" on the front and a large "Shang" on the back.

"This is our Pang family's chamber of commerce token. As long as you are in our family's chamber of commerce, you can withdraw a certain amount of crystal stones and gold coins, and you can also use the Pang family's intelligence network. I'll notify my father to give the order."

"Okay!" Lin Zheng didn't refuse and put the token away. They didn't need to be polite, but Lin Zheng still remembered this favor.

"We should gather tonight. I'll go get some dishes, and we'll have a good drink tonight."

"Sure, definitely. I'll go with you. I'm afraid you won't be able to come back alone with your reputation now."

"..."

Not long after, Lin Zheng and the fatty returned with a lot of dishes and drinks, as well as some seasonal fruits. They set up a full table as they had a year ago. After everything was ready, the sky had already turned dark, and Li Ruoshui quietly arrived.

The three smiled at each other, sat down, and drank several cups of wine, with a sense of everything being understood without words. They hadn't realized that a year had almost passed, and they didn't know if they would have the chance to gather again, to enjoy the moon and drink wine like this.

Lin Zheng and the fatty drank a lot, and even Li Ruoshui had several cups. The three, like last year, drank under the moon, laughing loudly, and the small courtyard was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

In the middle of the night, the old man appeared in the courtyard, sat down without any courtesy, and started eating and drinking, occasionally teasing Lin Zheng and the fatty. The two, of course, didn't back down and responded with words, making a noisy and lively scene.

"Hey, old man, what are your plans?" Lin Zheng, leaning on the chair, tilted his head and asked.

"What else? In a while, I plan to take this fatty down the mountain. There's no challenge in the sect. This time, the target is the homes of the various noble families. This kid just needs more pressure!"

"Wha?" The fatty was a bit stunned.

Lin Zheng and Li Ruoshui were already imagining the scene of the fatty being chased across the continent, shivering at the old man's bizarre idea!

"Hehe, fatty, work hard! I'm waiting to hear your news spread across the wilderness. Work hard, I believe in you!" Lin Zheng teased.

"Future master, you can't play like this, can you?" The fatty ignored Lin Zheng and looked at the old man with watery eyes, making a very cute expression, but it was quite shocking!

"Tsk, look at you. I also plan to take you to the Six Small Realms in a while! I heard their holy maiden has already appeared..."

"Clang!" The fatty fell backward.

Can just anyone go there? The fatty was already in tears!

The next morning, after breakfast, the three saw Lin Zheng and Li Ruoshui off to the mountain gate. The fatty, completely ignoring the crowd's fiery and disdainful gazes, said goodbye to Lin Zheng and Li Ruoshui and then started running. The next moment, the sound of a fierce fight echoed, and the crowd continued to chase the fatty, making another
