Chapter 591: Chapter 257: Two Golden Eagles_1

No matter how good a sedan is, its chassis is only so high and its wheels are only so small. When confronted with such rutted and broken roads, there’s no way to step on the gas and accelerate - unless you’re not concerned about losing your life.

Yan Fei’s motorcycle had been seen by The Fifth Young Master Guo and his group before, leaving a rather deep impression. They all knew that catching up to that motorcycle would be quite easy.

"It’s just a motorcycle, right? If he dares to chase us, you can just run him over with our car. I don’t believe his kung fu is good enough to stop a car..." The Fifth Young Master Guo spat out grumpily.

"Could you stop going on about life and death?" The Third Young Master Guo flared up. "We don’t even know if we can make it back alive. Tell me, if someone messed with your woman, could you just let it slide? If he truly heard you were planning to annihilate his entire family, do you think he would let us off easily? Perhaps he’s just trailing us, plotting on how to silence us all!"

"So what should we do?" The Fifth Young Master Guo was starting to lose patience after being continuously berated. "This ain’t Hong Kong, I don’t believe he can hurt us here..."

On guard upfront, Xiaochun came up with an idea, opened a small tool box in the front of the car, took out a map and proposed, "Enough arguing, you two. I’ll check the map and we can take a detour even if it’s longer. Can you hold on for a bit longer, Fifth Young Master?"

Before The Fifth Young Master Guo could reply, The Third Young Master Guo nodded and said, "Right, we can go to the city first if it doesn’t work. Xiaochun, you look at which route to take. Once we’re in the city, we can get in touch with their local government and say that we’re here for an inspection. Once the local leaders are present, he’ll have to be careful given the crowd."

Upon hearing this, Xiaochun started to quickly flip through the map. After a while, he groaned in frustration, "I can’t tell which road is passable from this map. The nearest road marked on the map would still take us to the country town ahead. If that doesn’t work out, we should get off in the town ahead and ask for directions?"

The Third Young Master Guo was deeply frustrated and couldn’t help but curse, "Damn it, we shouldn’t have come here. Can’t even find a decent road..."

It was truly maddening. They were strangers in a strange land, relying on a map was utterly pointless. They were lost, even while driving the car. Could anything be more frustrating?

While they were talking, they arrived at a town. The driver got off the car to ask for directions. Third Brother, irate, had Fifth Brother hand him a cigarette. He got out of the car and lit it up on the side of the road.

The Third Young Master Guo had been sitting in the middle of the back row, with one injured individual on one side. When he got out of the car, so The Sixth Miss Guo could move to give him space, she came out too. Standing on the roadside of this unfamiliar and underdeveloped small town, The Sixth Miss Guo suddenly said with a whimper, "Third Brother, I miss home..."

The Third Young Master Guo sighed, "Don’t be afraid, little sister. This place isn’t like Hong Kong. I’m guessing that Yan fellow has a significant standing here. He might not risk it all..."

Even as he said this, he himself wasn’t sure. He looked up at the sky as he smoked, his usual poise completely gone, his face writ with hardship...

The Sixth Miss Guo also looked up at the sky with him. Even the usually fearless individual became sentimental, "How great it would be if I could fly like those two eagles in the sky!"

Neither of them noticed Da Jun, who went to a small roadside shop, spoke a few words, then ran back to ask Xiaochun for some money before running back to the shop.

They did notice when Da Jun returned. The sentimental ones couldn’t care about being sentimental anymore, and urged, "Third Brother, let’s go as soon as possible! We’ll feel safe once we reach the city. If it comes to it, we can just fly back from a nearby airport..."

Once back in the car and noticing Da Jun holding a few cans of Jianlibao, The Sixth Miss Guo couldn’t help asking, "We have drinks on the car, what are you buying these for?"

She probably should not have asked that. The normally composed Da Jun seemed extremely frustrated, "People in this place are crazy poor. To ask for directions, they made me buy something. They didn’t recognize or accept Hong Kong dollars and wouldn’t give directions unless I bought enough. It’s really a troubled land filled with troublesome people..."

Everyone in the car was frustrated beyond words.

The two vehicles set off again, taking a turn towards the city. As soon as they left the provincial road, conditions worsened. After a while, the passengers in the car were shaken to the point of being dazed, all of them with empty looks in their eyes.

While passing a village, the dirt road was completely wrecked by tractors. Their car tossed and turned like a small raft amidst a sea storm. Seeing his brother and Xiaochun, both injured, suffering, The Third Young Master Guo said, "Da Jun, stop the car. Let Xiaochun go sit in the back. Little sister, you go sit upfront so that the Fifth Young Master can keep his leg in a more comfortable position."

After switching cars and hitting the road again, the atmosphere in the car eased a bit. The Sixth Miss Guo, who had been brooding for a while, tried to strike up a conversation, "Third Brother, when we go back, help me get few beasts to keep. And buy a couple of eaglets too..."

"What happened? Didn’t you like dogs? Now you want to keep beasts and eagles?" The Third Young Master Guo forced a smile and said, "A girl raising those things just isn’t proper. You think our family will agree?"

"What’s wrong with being a girl? Does it mean I can’t keep beasts or eagles? If they disagree, I’ll throw a fit!" The Sixth Miss Guo retorted defiantly. "Besides, don’t you think it would be cool to go out with a few beasts and a couple of eagles? Like that jerk’s tiger and black bear, and the two eagles we’ve seen along the way..."

"Da Jun, stop the car!" The Third Young Master Guo had been listening to his sister’s words with a forced smile. Upon hearing the last sentence, his expression suddenly changed and he commanded the driver to stop.

"What’s wrong, Third Brother?" The Sixth Miss Guo immediately asked, seeing his reaction.

The Third Young Master Guo did not respond, his face dark as the bottom of a pot. As soon as the car came to a stop, he got out, looked up at the sky, and then stood there silently.

Seeing this, Da Jun pulled up the handbrake and got out of the car to ask, "What’s wrong, young master?"

The Third Young Master Guo turned to him and asked, "When we were by the river, did you see any eagles in the vicinity?"

Da Jun recalled, "I think so, when we were pulling the Fifth Young Master out of the river, I noticed two eagles perched on the shed roof. I didn’t pay much attention to it then, but I’m certain they were there..."

At this, the Third Young Master Guo looked up and said, "These two eagles in the sky have been following our car since we started changing clothes. Do you think these eagles could be raised by that Yan fellow?"

Da Jun looked up and was taken aback.

He understood that when the Third Young Master Guo had asked that question, he must have already had an answer in his mind. Therefore, he did not respond but jogged over to the car behind them. Coming back after a moment, he nodded at the Third Young Master Guo, "They’re not eagles, but Golden Eagles. Xiaochun and the others saw them too, those two Golden Eagles have been flying around us..."

Hearing this, the Third Young Master Guo continued to silently watch the sky, and Da Jun did the same.

"If he is determined to get rid of us, how likely do you think we could evade him, given his expertise?" The Third Young Master Guo spoke up after a while. "What about if we add in the protection of the local government here?"

"Based on our saying there’s danger, how much protection do you think a local government can provide?" Da Jun pondered, speaking with difficulty. "Unless we report and they arrest him immediately..."

"That might not be easy either. He’s probably considered rich in this poor area, and with his wealth at such a young age, he surely has connections. We’re here to invest, but the local government hasn’t seen a penny from us yet. Do you think they would arrest him immediately if we report him?" The Third Young Master Guo shook his head. "Moreover, what if that forces him into desperation and he recklessly seeks revenge against us, even if it means becoming a fugitive?"

"I don’t know!" Da Jun shook his head. "For a remarkable man like him, we can’t estimate his true capabilities. Unless we bring in the military from the start to surround him, once we startle him and he becomes determined to fight us to the death, even if we escape this time, we will never feel secure again. As long as he’s alive, we will never have peace..."

"Even if we return to Hong Kong and have gunmen for protection, it wouldn’t work?" The Third Young Master Guo asked persistently.

"He can throw a person weighing more than a hundred catties several hundred meters..." Da Jun said helplessly.

Hearing this, the Third Young Master Guo fell silent!

Yes!

If he could throw a person weighing over a hundred catties that far, then he surely wouldn’t have any issues hurling a package of dynamite that weighed the same. The Hong Kong police force might be formidable, but there were still many gangsters they could not handle! Given the poor conditions of the local police force they had glimpsed during their tour, he dare not even think about what would happen if they really angered that man!

What’s more, if they couldn’t get past this hurdle, there was no point talking about anything else!

Now as he thought about it, he felt deeply melancholic. Wasn’t it just because his little sister wanted to find a good beef supplier that they ended up in this predicament?

At this moment, the setting sun cast an orange glow across the sky, and a spring breeze blew over the endless green wheat fields, causing the crops to sway all at once. In the village behind them, smoke was curling up...

Yet the two men standing by the car had no interest in taking in this scenery. Watching those two leisurely Golden Eagles, they felt a chill run through them...

After a long silence, the two men in the car, seeing their stunned expressions, also got out of the car. Even after they asked several questions and received no answer, they joined them in their silent vigil!

The Third Young Master Guo suddenly spoke, "We’re going back..."

Da Jun was taken aback, "Going back?"

"Third Brother, have you lost your mind?" The Fifth Young Master Guo was shocked. "We barely have time to hide from him, and now you want to go right up to him..."

"Yes, we’re going back!" The Third Young Master Guo repeated, seeming to have reached a resolution. "Get in the car, we’re going back to see him..."
