"Damn, with that kid driving, he seems to have some skills!"
"Big brother, be careful, he's trying to force us to stop!"
"Fuck him, I'll give him a few more bullets!"
As he spoke, the guy who fired the gun squeezed over, raised his pistol towards the open window, and aimed it at the driver's seat, behind Lu Chen.
"Brother Chen, be careful, they're going to shoot again! Be careful!" Zhuang Keluo exclaimed.
Lu Chen smiled slightly: "Don't worry!"
With that, he slightly turned the steering wheel to the other side, then suddenly swerved, causing the Buick Regal to crash into the Wuling Rongguang. The outer wheel of the Buick even tilted up, causing the car to lean towards the Wuling Rongguang. The gunman's outstretched hand slammed into the top of the window.
The gunman fired a shot at that moment!
With a bang, the bullet was stopped by the upper frame of the Buick Regal's window, while the assailant's hand was scraped hard by the window. A cry of pain rang out, and the imitation Type 35 pistol fell to the road. The assailant, wincing in pain, quickly pulled his hand away. Looking down, a large patch of skin was scraped off from the back of his hand to the back of his forearm, leaving it bloody.
He shouted angrily, "Damn it, that kid's got some kind of magic! He managed to swerve the car! Ouch, that hurts like hell, a huge piece of skin!" His mouth twitched as he yelled.
The driver yelled, "Quiet down! That kid's a pro too, damn it! I'm going to have to fight him!"
With that, he slammed on the brakes, and the Wuling Rongguang came to a stop.
However, the Buick Regal didn't lurch forward as the assailant's leader had expected. Lu Chen's control was impeccable, or perhaps he had anticipated this. As the Wuling Rongguang slowed down, he also gently applied the brakes, not only slowing it down as well, but also forcing the Wuling Rongguang to hug the cliff even more.
The gang leader gritted his teeth: "Damn it, where did this kid come from? He's got no law or order, huh?!"
This guy was probably illiterate; he didn't know what "no law or order" meant.
His henchmen started complaining:
"Boss, since he's so stubborn, let's teach him a lesson!"
"Yeah, damn it! Let's teach him a lesson, knock him and that girl unconscious, take them both! We can have some fun with the girl, and harvest all the usable organs! Haha, these two girls are pretty good!"
"Boss, let's get out of the car, teach that kid a lesson, beat him half to death!"
The gang leader, however, waved his hand coldly, his face grim, and said, "Quiet down, all of you. My dignity has been challenged. This kid thinks he can outrun me just because he has some skills? Damn it, I'll show him what I'm capable of driving!"
"Hold on tight!" he shouted.
With that, he slammed on the gas and jerked the steering wheel, hurtling towards the cliff!
The other gangsters fell silent, silently grabbing whatever they could to secure themselves. Gong Xiaoyi, still unconscious, was in a sorry state, swaying on the floor, her forehead hitting the edge of the seat, leaving a bloody mark.
"Their counterattack has begun!" Lu Chen said calmly, a cold smile playing on his lips.
Zhuang Keluo was somewhat surprised, watching the Wuling Rongguang crash into the cliff. She asked in astonishment, "Brother Chen, look at that guy… is he committing suicide?"
"Of course not." A hint of worry flashed in Lu Chen's eyes. "Sigh, I just hope Xiaoyi is alright, otherwise, I'll kill all those guys!" As he spoke, a strong murderous aura emanated from his eyes.
The gang leader certainly wasn't committing suicide. Although the Wuling Rongguang rushed towards the cliff, seemingly seeking death, it was actually an escape plan. The wheels closest to the cliff edge scraped against the rock, and the entire vehicle seemed about to tip over to the other side. Then, the leader of the thugs suddenly swerved his car, heading straight for the Buick Regal with a menacing thud.
If the collision were to hit squarely, it would definitely result in mutual destruction.
"Damn it!" Lu Chen slammed his hand on the steering wheel and hissed, "That bastard, he knew I wouldn't dare to ram him head-on, afraid of hurting Xiao Yi inside, so he's being so bold!"
As he spoke, he had no choice but to slightly swerve his car and slam on the brakes, avoiding the Wuling Rongguang's impact.
The leader of the thugs smirked coldly and spat, "I thought you dared to ram me!"
With that, he turned the steering wheel again and sped off.
Lu Chen immediately floored the accelerator and followed!
And so, the two cars raced along. The Buick Regal repeatedly tried to force the Wuling Rongguang to a stop, while the Wuling Rongguang, by repeatedly surging up the cliff and then suddenly turning around to ram the Buick Regal, not only successfully escaped but also nearly collided with it several times. At several points where one side was a cliff and the other a precipice, Lu Chen was almost knocked off.
The most unlucky one was Zhuang Keluo. Sitting in the back seat, she lost her grip, swayed, and slammed her head against the window with a thud. The impact was so painful she almost fainted, and a large bump rose at her hairline.
She angrily yelled, "Damn it, I've never hit my head like that before! Those bastards, I'll kill them!" Then, with a sob in her voice, she said, "Brother Chen, watch me! I'm worried I'll get stupid."
Lu Chen was both amused and exasperated, and could only apologize.
Zhuang Kelu chuckled, "After we catch those bastards, will you rub them for me?"
What could Lu Chen say? He could only agree. At this moment, he had already made a decision. This stalemate couldn't go on. He could almost see that Gong Xiaoyi inside the Wuling Rongguang had already suffered some injuries. This made him quite uneasy! No, he had to force it to stop!
The leader of the thugs driving the Wuling Rongguang was gradually losing patience. He cursed, "Damn it, this kid's too cunning! I'm going to ram him!"
One of the thugs cautiously said, "Boss, we don't need to compete with him in driving skills. I reckon it's enough. Let's get out. There are only two of them, and the other one's a woman. They're easy to deal with!"
The leader of the thugs shouted, "You don't know anything!"
As he cursed, he looked ahead and suddenly smiled sinisterly, "There's a road ahead, just a dirt road, and there's a particularly narrow section. Damn it, I'll ram him there! Let's see who comes out on top!"
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two cars sped through the night, one after the other, heading straight into the depths of the mountains.
Soon after, the Wuling Rongguang suddenly turned the steering wheel, veering onto a dirt road that led even deeper into the mountains. The dirt road was only seven or eight meters wide, and in some sections even narrower, much steeper than the previous cement road.
Weeds grew rampant on both sides, some even encroaching on the road itself. Clearly, this road was rarely traveled.
Lu Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and continued on.
It was already past five in the afternoon, the sun gradually setting, and facing west, the sunlight was so bright it was almost blinding. Two cars sped past, kicking up large clouds of dust.
Not far ahead was a dangerous section of road. Not only did the road narrow, but the cliff on one side became even deeper and more treacherous. Most importantly, the gradient and curves increased significantly, with many more bends. Normally, cars would have to limit their speed to below 80 km/h here, otherwise, it would be dangerous.
But the Buick Regal and the Wuling Rongguang were still traveling at about 130 or 140 km/h.
The two cars quickly reached this dangerous section of road.
At this moment, the two drivers had a stark difference in their backgrounds: the gang leader was familiar with this route, while Lu Chen had never been here before.
Looking at the road ahead, Lu Chen quickly realized that this was about to be the climax of his high-speed duel with the gangsters in the Wuling Rongguang! He took a deep breath and said, "Luo Luo, lie down under the seat, grab the leg, and keep your balance. Don't stick your head out. The final showdown has begun!"
With that, he glanced at the Wuling Rongguang, which was about two car lengths ahead, and stepped on the gas, darting past it again, his car pressed against its side for the nth time. Simultaneously, Lu Chen subtly twisted the steering wheel, causing the Buick Regal to sway slightly, shaking the Wuling Rongguang.
Inside the Wuling Rongguang, the men were shaken violently, and the car began to show signs of losing control.
The gang leader snarled, "Damn it, this kid's a real bastard! Trying to control me with this kind of shaking? If my car were any better, you wouldn't have gotten away with it!"
Lu Chen swayed the car, repeatedly pushing the Wuling Rongguang towards the cliff edge, trying to force it to stop. It was like fishing for a big fish; you couldn't just hook it straight up. You had to slowly tame it before reeling it in.
However, the Wuling Rongguang wasn't a fish. The gang leader, a cold smile playing on his lips, shouted, "Come on, let's see if you can stop me, or if I'll ram you off the cliff!"
With that, he swerved again, charging towards the cliff.
This time, the charge was particularly powerful. The entire Wuling Rongguang resembled a giant spider, clinging to the cliff face. Soon, the car emitted a terrifying roar, like a wild beast's death throes, then twisted its front and rammed into the Buick Regal.
If they crashed, the Buick Regal would definitely be sent flying outwards. It was a bend in the road, and the surface sloped slightly towards the cliff; if the Buick Regal were hit, it would tumble and fall off.
The gang leader was ruthless.
Inside the Buick Regal, Zhuang Keluo didn't listen to Lu Chen's instructions. Instead of obediently lying under the seat, she plopped down and sat up, even sitting up and looking around.
Seeing the Wuling Rongguang rushing towards her like a tiger descending a mountain, she screamed, "Brother Chen, watch out!"
Lu Chen impatiently shouted, "Get down!"
"So fierce!" Zhuang Keluo stuck out her tongue, but still obediently lay down.
This time, Lu Chen didn't dodge as before. He slammed on the brakes, turned the steering wheel sharply backwards a little, and then rammed into the front of the Wuling Rongguang.
With a loud bang, the Wuling Rongguang was instantly flattened, no longer in its angled, head-on-headed position towards the Buick Regal. The thugs inside were also shaken and disoriented.
This was just the beginning!
Lu Chen gritted his teeth and swerved the steering wheel sharply inwards. Instantly, the Buick Regal pressed against the Wuling Rongguang, like conjoined twins.
A series of hissing sounds filled the air, and sparks flew from where the two cars met, creating a truly terrifying scene.
The Buick Regal continued to shove towards the cliff, and soon, the Wuling Rongguang was pushed back. This time, the latter didn't charge up the cliff on its own like a giant spider; it was forced up by the Buick Regal.
Inside the Wuling Rongguang, the thugs lay sprawled to one side, their bodies pressed against the windows. The leader of the thugs in the car slammed his head against the window frame with a loud thud, creating a large bump. His face ashen, he roared, "Damn it! This bastard, does he really want to fight me head-on, regardless of the girl's life or death?"
