Chapter 39 It’s chaos
The leader was utterly bewildered. Why would they injure their own men for no reason? Were they truly possessed? So, he turned to his companion on the right, who was clutching his bleeding arm and sweating profusely from the pain, and asked, "Xiao Jin, what exactly happened just now?"
Hearing this, Xiao Jin, enduring the excruciating pain, replied, "Big brother, ask him!"
As Xiao Jin spoke, he turned his head toward the man to his left, who was also grimacing in pain and covered in sweat.
When the answer was irrelevant, the leader immediately flew into a rage, yelling, "Damn it, that's not what I'm asking. I'm asking why you cut down the little horse just now."
Upon hearing this, the man named Xiao Jin was suddenly stunned and exclaimed in alarm: "That's right, I was clearly slashing at this kid just now, how did I end up slashing at Xiao Ma? Strange!" He then said with a puzzled look: "Brother, I don't know what happened either. I was clearly slashing at him just now, but somehow the knife landed on Xiao Ma. But I swear to God, I really didn't mean to slash Xiao Ma."
The man in the lead then asked the little horse on his left, "Little horse, what about you?"
Despite the excruciating pain, Xiao Ma replied, "Brother, me too. I was clearly trying to cut this kid, but the knife landed on Xiao Liu instead. I swear to God, I didn't mean to cut Xiao Liu."
Upon hearing this, the leading man exclaimed in surprise, "How could this be? What exactly is going on? Could this kid really know the 'Great Shift of Heaven and Earth'? No, that kind of thing doesn't exist in real life!"
The leading man was greatly surprised and extremely confused. He glanced at Chao Bufan and saw that Chao Bufan was standing there nonchalantly with a faint smile on his face. He immediately flew into a rage and shouted, "Get out of the way, you bastard! I don't believe in this nonsense!"
Almost simultaneously, the gangsters quickly took several steps back, thinking that this kid was very dangerous and they didn't want to become their boss's target.
Ignoring the blood streaming down his forehead, the leader roared and quickly drew his gleaming machete from his waist. Pointing at Chao Bufan, he said angrily, "Kid, I don't care if you're a man or a ghost, you're dead today."
With that, he swung the half-meter-long machete in his hand, aimed it at Chao Bufan's neck, and brought it down. However, as he raised his hand to strike, he had no confidence at all. After all, what had just happened was too strange; he was supposed to be attacking him, but he ended up hitting someone else instead. That's why he told his men to retreat.
Start...
The knife fell...
The leading man suddenly felt a huge external force pulling his wrist to the side, completely out of his control.
As a result, the leader himself let out a scream of agony, like a pig being slaughtered: "Ah... my foot!"
The leader's slash landed squarely on his own left foot. Fortunately, he had been careful and hadn't used his full strength, so the blow didn't break any bones. Even so, it was still painful, as it drew blood.
"Big brother."
The others gasped in unison, their faces filled with disbelief as they stared at their eldest brother, a strange sound escaping their throats. "My goodness! Our eldest brother is really ruthless! He actually cut himself!"
"Ah! My feet, my feet, they hurt so much, they hurt so much!"
The leader threw down his machete, grabbed his left foot with both hands, and started jumping around on one leg, screaming in pain.
He jumped around for a while, then forced himself to calm down, but when he looked at Chao Bufan, his eyes were completely different from before. He asked in a terrified expression, "Kid...boy, are you a human or a ghost?"
However, even he himself felt foolish and ridiculous to ask such a question. What kind of ghosts exist in this world? Besides, the idea of ghosts is simply absurd and laughable; he never believed in such things in the first place.
Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan's smile vanished, and he retorted, "A living person standing here like this, would you call it a human or a ghost?"
The leading man was speechless with anger. He thought, "If it's a human, then how come I clearly felt an invisible force pulling my hand away? Could this kid really know magic?" At that moment, the man couldn't think of a better explanation for the strange external force than magic. His brow furrowed, and he asked again, "You know magic?"
Suddenly, the man remembered something and exclaimed in alarm: Isn't this the dancing god I saw on TV during the day?
During the day, this gangster happened to see the news reports about the wedding of Qi Minghao, the son of an official, and the daughter of the Kong Group. Naturally, he saw the two wonderful dances performed by Chao Bufan. After reading the report, he was very envious of Chao Bufan, and thought that his idol, a certain handsome man, was nothing compared to Chao Bufan.
Therefore, the man couldn't help but take another look at Chao Bufan. After confirming that the person in front of him was indeed the Chao Bufan he had seen on TV during the day, he was overjoyed. He quickly put away all his previous anger and forgot the pain in his forehead and feet. He asked cautiously, "Are you the dance god Chao Bufan?"
Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan's brows furrowed, and he asked suspiciously, "How did you know?"
Upon hearing this, the leader was overjoyed and exclaimed, "You really are extraordinary! Oh my god, I'm so glad I've finally met you! Dance God, I admire you so much! Ever since I saw you perform those two earth-shattering dances at Qi Minghao and Miss Kong's wedding during the day, I... I've been... I've been... Dance God, you know what? I've made you my idol, extraordinary... Oh, no, brother, can you teach me those two dances?"
"Forehead?"
The gangster boss's sudden 180-degree turn caused Chao Bufan to gasp in astonishment, and even his henchmen were all taken aback, their faces filled with disbelief.
What's going on? Our boss sent us here to kill this kid, so why are they calling him "big brother" now? Oh my god, this is all messed up! What's going on here?!
As the saying goes, one doesn't hit a smiling face, so Chao Bufan shook his head and smiled, asking, "What's your name?"
The man in the lead quickly replied, "Pheasant, that's what everyone calls me."
Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan nodded and asked, "Shanji, why did you want to kill me? Did that Young Master Wen send you?"
Pheasant gave a somewhat embarrassed smile. Seeing this, Chao Bufan confirmed his guess, sneered, and said, "Pheasant, do you know? If I wanted to kill you, you would probably be dead several times over."
