Chapter 113: Helpers Appear: Breaking Through Adversity
Chu Feng's heart sank suddenly.
He was caught in a pincer attack.
Lin Xiao's half-smile made him realize that this woman was definitely not someone to be trifled with, and might even be in collusion with the dark forces behind the scenes.
Sweat soaked his collar, and the box in his hand seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.
"What? Are you scared?" Lin Xiao's voice was full of mockery. She moved lightly, step by step, closer to Chu Feng, like a cat teasing its prey.
Chu Feng did not answer. His eyes swept over the crowd around him. Those spectators had expressions of enjoying the show on their faces and were whispering to each other.
Some people even started placing bets on how long it would take to catch him.
These sounds pricked his nerves like needles and made him feel isolated and helpless.
"Kid, if you know what's good for you, hand over the things. Boss Sun can leave you with an intact body." A burly man with a face full of flesh walked out of the crowd, followed by several younger brothers, all of whom looked ferocious.
They were the subordinates of the leader of Sun's dark forces. At this moment, they were approaching Chu Feng step by step, with greed flashing in their eyes.
With every step the burly man took closer, the air around him became more solemn.
Chu Feng felt like a prey trapped by a giant python, unable to move.
He understood that today would probably not end peacefully.
"What? Is it a big deal just because there are more people?" A calm voice suddenly sounded.
Pan Yue appeared beside Chu Feng at some point. Although he was not as strong as those strong men, his eyes were extremely firm and he did not show any fear.
"Hey, another one looking for death?" The strong man sneered disdainfully, "Brothers, come together and destroy these two ignorant brats!"
At this moment, Pan Yue suddenly leaned close to Chu Feng's ear and whispered, "Fengzi, I saw..." Before he finished speaking, a scream suddenly came from the crowd, and then chaos broke out... The crowd fled in all directions as if a pot had exploded.
Pan Yue grabbed Chu Feng's wrist and growled, "Go!"
Pan Yue whispered quickly into Chu Feng's ear, "I used my ability to go back in time and saw Boss Sun's plan! They're lying in wait among the crowd, ready to catch them in a trap. I created chaos, and now is the perfect time!"
Chu Feng was shocked. Pan Yue’s ability could actually be used in this way!
There was no time to think, he had to seize this fleeting opportunity.
Taking advantage of the chaos in the crowd, he suddenly ducked and squeezed out of Lin Xiao's encirclement.
Lin Xiao was caught off guard and watched him disappear in the crowd, a trace of anger flashing across his face.
"Damn it! Chase!" Lin Xiao shouted at the men in black around him.
Chu Feng shuttled through the chaotic crowd like a slippery loach, constantly changing direction to shake off the pursuers behind him.
He knew that Boss Sun's men would not give up, and he had to find a safe place to hide the information as soon as possible.
However, when he rushed out of the crowd and came to a secluded alley, he found that the situation was worse than he had imagined.
At the entrance of the alley, there were several seemingly ordinary potted plants placed there, but Chu Feng keenly noticed that the placement of these potted plants was extremely strange, and seemed to contain a mystery.
He took a tentative step forward, and the bluestone slab under his feet suddenly sank. Several sharp spikes shot out from the ground, heading straight for his ankles.
Chu Feng quickly retracted his steps, breaking out in a cold sweat.
"Trap?" Chu Feng thought to himself that this was not good.
He looked around and found that the walls on both sides of the alley were also covered with mechanisms, crossbows, poison needles, steel wires...all kinds of deadly traps were hidden in the dark, like a huge mouth ready to devour anyone, waiting for him to step into it.
"Fengzi, over here!" Pan Yue's voice came from not far away.
Chu Feng looked in the direction of the voice and saw Pan Yue standing on the other side of the alley, looking at him solemnly.
"Be careful, there are traps everywhere here!" Pan Yue warned in a low voice.
Chu Feng took a deep breath. He knew that he had no way out. He had to rely on his wisdom and courage to get through this death trap.
"I know." Chu Feng's eyes were firm and his tone was cold.
He tightly grasped the box in his hand. He knew that this was not just a piece of information, but also the hope of countless people.
He must not fall here!
He slowly raised his foot, his eyes fixed on the front, one step, two steps...
Chu Feng held his breath and carefully calculated every step.
He first dodged the spikes on the ground by turning sideways, then rolled forward to avoid the crossbow arrow shot from the wall, and then jumped over a steel wire in the air with lightning speed.
His movements were fluid and precise, as if he were performing a dance of death.
Lin Xiao led his men to the alley entrance and watched Chu Feng moving through the traps, with a barely perceptible admiration flashing in his eyes.
She waved her hand, signaling her men to stop chasing.
"Interesting little guy, you're quite skilled." She chuckled, with a hint of amusement in her tone.
Chu Feng caught a glimpse of Lin Xiao's expression from the corner of his eye, and became even more confused.
Is this woman a friend or an enemy?
Why should she help herself?
What is her purpose?
A series of questions swirled in his mind, making him more alert.
Pan Yue was watching anxiously on the other side, occasionally reminding Chu Feng of the location of the trap.
He knew that Chu Feng was facing great danger and would be doomed if he was not careful.
"Fengzi, left! Two o'clock!"
Following Pan Yue's instructions, Chu Feng slid to avoid a row of poison needles, then used the force to flip over and landed steadily on the other side of the trap.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead and his heart was beating violently.
He knew that he was approaching his limit.
Finally, he came to the end of the alley.
There is a high wall here. There is no mechanism on the wall, only a tightly closed wooden door.
Chu Feng took a deep breath and pushed open the wooden door.
Behind the door was an abandoned warehouse filled with junk and the air was filled with the smell of dust.
Chu Feng quickly glanced around and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was no danger.
He had to find a safe place to hide the information as soon as possible. He scanned every corner of the warehouse, but no place seemed safe...
"Found it..." Chu Feng's gaze lingered on an inconspicuous corner, where...
