Lord Zhang Fei

Chapter 2



Chapter 2: A Zhang Of The Past [II]

That evening, in a van, Zhang Fei drove Da Meng and San Shun from the village to drink at Donghai’s house in the neighboring city. Donghai was the carpenter in their team. This craftsmanship was inherited from his ancestors, and what he was crafting were called a masterclass!

As soon as the car got off the highway, San Shun, who was sharp-eyed, found at a glance that the driver who paid money next to him seemed to be the long-lost Boss Zhang! Even though the man was wearing a disguise of toad mirror, he recognized him from the voice and manner of his speech!

After paying their own money, Zhang Fei stepped on his van’s accelerator, pursuing Boss Zhang’s Audi car. The Audi was a good car with great performance, and there were not many cars on the road during this Chinese New Year. So, Boss Zhang was running at great speed.

Zhang Fei continued to step on the accelerator, and the van continued to shoot forward with great speed too. Now, they could see the back of the Boss Zhang’s Audi car at a distance from them.

In a blink of an eye, two vehicles shot into the mountainous area, one after the other! The road in the mountains had been crushed and damaged by the carts that pulled ore over the years. The asphalt road was no longer in excellent condition, but fortunately it was still relatively fair for vehicles to use. Except for the occasional big pits, it was fairly manageable to drive on.

New Year’s Eve, the carts for pulling the mines had long been put out of service. And there were only a few cars on the road. So, the Audi car ran leisurely at the front, throwing up all the dust.

Seeing that the sky was going to darken, Xiao Yu’s anxious heart almost jumped out. “Faster.”

.....

“Brother Fei, hurry up! Or that tortoise grandson will escape.” San Shun urged anxiously, staring at the back of the looming car in the smoke of fumes.

“Don’t worry, even if the van falls apart, I will catch up with him!”

As soon as Zhang Fei replied them, everyone suddenly realized that the Audi car in front had started to decelerate and was turning towards the gas station. At the same time, they turned on the turn signal and drove to a gas station not far ahead.

“Don’t rush to get out of the car. When we get closer, let’s check the situation first.” Zhang Fei said as he slowed down and leaned towards the gas station cautiously.

“Yes, let’s take a look at a few people in the car first.” San Shun also said nervously. Probably because of excitement, his voice was trembling a little.

Gas stations in the mountains were not generally big, at least this one was quite small! There were only two gas pumps and a simple small supermarket at this gas station.

Because of the New Year, there were two large rows of gift boxes of various colors outside the supermarket, blocking the glass of the supermarket, and you couldn’t see the inside from the outside!

In addition, there was an old motorcycle parked in front of the supermarket. No one inside the supermarket could even see a person in the entire gas station!

Boss Zhang honked the horn three times in the car, but no one came out. So casually, he said. “Damn, where is the person here.”

Pushing the car door, he rushed to the supermarket and shouted: “Is anyone here? Are you still open to business.”

Still no one responded.

Boss Zhang looked around for a while, and discovered that the whole place was empty. There was not even a dog. Only a broken van behind it slowly turned around from the road, maybe it was also here to buy fuel or something.

Zhang Fei saw that it was Boss Zhang who got off the bus, and along with the others, was very excited! Sure enough, it had been no goose chase. They had really found the right man they had been searching for all this days.

While they were thinking about their next move, Boss Zhang suddenly glanced at them. Everyone of them became frightened, and immediately bowed their heads. Da Meng who sat in the co-driver’s frontier, didn’t pay attention to his seat, and his forehead hit the car panel. He grimaced in pain as he slanted his head and asked Zhang Fei. “Damn. Did he see us?”

“No. You can calm down.” Zhang Fei shrank half of his neck, and peeked. He saw Boss Zhang walking towards the door of the supermarket. There was no one in the supermarket, so he slowly leaned in.

The van stopped side by side next to the Audi. Through the open window of the Audi, everyone saw that there was no other person in the car except a gift box, so they took a long deep breath.

Da Meng stared at the other two and said fiercely. ” Brother Fei, should we go in and apprehend Boss Zhang?”

“San Shun, check if there is a rope on the back seat.” Zhang Fei uttered, before turning his attention back to the entrance of the supermaket.

“Yes, there is also a pickaxe handle. I just bought it yesterday.”

“Okay. You take the rope, Da Meng, and I’ll hold the pickaxe handle, and you will tie this man up as soon as we block him.”

After the order, they all got out of the car, took the instruments and rushed to the supermarket!

Outside the supermarket, Boss Zhang shouted for a long time, but no one responded. He cursed and walked up and down the entrance of the supermarket: “Where are all the people? Is everyone dead?”

When he walked to the entrance of the supermarket, Boss Zhang raised a corner of the thick cotton curtain with his hands. As soon as he put his head in, he felt his chest tighten and he was lifted in! Then a soil gun was placed to his forehead.

“Don’t move! Raise your hand and put it behind your head.” Said a man wearing a motorcycle helmet in a hoarse voice.

“No, don’t shoot. I’m not here to take anything..” Boss Zhang was a little frightened by the sudden development. He hurriedly raised his hands, and glanced left and right with trembling lips!

There were four people in the supermarket. Two of them wearing motorcycle helmets should be gangsters! There was also an old man and a handsome girl, both tied back and squatting on the ground, with towels in their mouths!

At this time, another gangster came over, reached out his hand and started groping on Boss Zhang. He threw Boss Zhang’s wallet and mobile phone into the satchel hanging around his neck.

“Intruders!” The man with the gun shouted to the others as he suddenly saw three men rushing out of the van parked outside the supermarket through the gap in the glass window. The guy with the gun in his hand was rushing towards the entrance to the supermarket.

The two other gangsters also ran towards the entrance door in shock. The man with the gun didn’t forget to give Boss Zhang a barrel blow before he went out, and Boss Zhang fell on the ground like a big dead horse.

Zhang Fei and the others were about to rush through the entrance of the supermarket when all of a sudden, the curtain parted and three men wearing helmets rushed out. One of them pointed a short gun in his hand at the three friends. Zhang Fei and his friends were shocked by the scenery in front of them. They didn’t know who these people were or what they were doing there, so they immediately stopped.

The three looked at each other. Zhang Fei’s hand tightened on the handle of the pickaxe, preparing himself for a fight. But they saw three gangsters quickly rushing onto their motorcycle, and took off. As soon as they stepped on the accelerator, the motorcycle spewed long exhaust gas in a high pitched scream.

“Thieves, stop them!” Boss Zhang rushed out with blood on his face, and went straight after the motorcycles, chasing after them. Just after a few steps, he found a beer bottle spinning in the air towards him, flame blazing on its mouth.

Boss Zhang immediately dropped to the ground, and the bottle flew over his head, slightly rubbing his scalp.

Zhang Fei and others were already chasing after Boss Zhang when he dropped on the ground, a fire-breathing bottle passing over his head and smashed towards them.

The three immediately rolled away in different directions.

“Asshole, don’t you know that gas stations don’t play with fire?” San Shun shouted at the fleeting thieves as he got up from the ground.

“Fire!” The three screamed suddenly, realizing that the gas pump had started to burst into flames!

“Run!” The four of them crawled and ran away from the gas station!

Before they could run far enough, there was a loud “bang” from behind. Zhang Fei felt his body shook as a shock wave mixed with debris smashed at him.

Zhang Fei opened his mouth wide and screamed, but he couldn’t hear his own voice! The surrounding sceneries spread out in his sight, little by little, like slow motion. He saw Da Meng flying forward slowly, not far away from him, his limbs slowly drawing circles in the air. A man was sent flying, farther away, fluttering slowly likewise. Judging from his clothes, Zhang Fei deducted that person to be Boss Zhang.

Masses of fire rolled over and gradually overwhelmed everybody present. Zhang Fei eyes suddenly became full of flashes of fire! Slowly, the fire light brightened, and Zhang Fei who was being blinded by this strong white light, couldn’t open his eyes.

“Am I going to die?” Zhang Fei slowly stretched his hands to his eyes, and then stretched them forward, trying to grab something. But there was nothing in front, only endless white light. After a few seconds, his body slowly flew towards the white light.

Before he knew it, everything became nothingness. And his consciousness gradually disappeared!
