The ultimate master in the city

Zhou Fengchen and Monk Yuanzhi immediately stopped laughing, looked at each other, and Zhang Shisan also looked up at the two of them. Then the three of them fell silent, not daring to move.

The sound of rushing water came from the hot spring, followed by the rustling of clothes being put on.

The three exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Retreat!"

After saying that, he took off running.

The surrounding area was filled with smooth stones that had been eroded by wind and water for countless years. Monk Yuanzhi was so excited that he slipped and fell down with a "thud." Zhou Fengchen and Zhang Shisan hurriedly pulled him up.

In the time that was wasted, the four girls from the hot spring had already gotten dressed and ran over, just in time to see them.

Zhang Shisan immediately took off his coat, pulled it over his head, and, like a thief, whispered, "Disguise!"

Zhou Fengchen and Monk Yuanzhi quickly followed suit.

The four girls behind them were enraged and chased after them, drawing their knives and swords and shouting.

"Three lecherous thieves! Stop right there!"

"Shameless scoundrel! Don't go!"

"You ill-mannered brat!"

"Stop! Don't run!"

……

"Holy crap!"

Zhou Fengchen and his two companions took off running, cold sweat pouring down their faces. This was way more exciting than being a thief! If they caught you, they'd beat you up so badly you wouldn't even dare call yourself a thief!

"Shameless scoundrel!"

"You son of a bitch!"

……

The four girls gritted their teeth and chased after the girl while hurling insults at her, the insults becoming increasingly vulgar.

Actually, with Zhang Shisan and Zhou Fengchen's abilities, it would be easy for them to shake off the four girls, but they were unfortunately burdened by the monk Yuanzhi, which was quite frustrating.

As Zhou Fengchen ran, he said dejectedly, "These girls aren't cute at all."

Monk Yuanzhi, also panting, said, "Yeah! At worst, I'll just take my clothes off and let them see all they want! It's no big deal, is it worth it?"

Zhang Shisan: "Hehe..."

After half an hour of this chase, a hillside appeared ahead, surrounded by wild grass covered with snow, and the space inside was quite large.

Zhou Fengchen's eyes darted around, and he quickly pulled Zhang Shisan and the other man behind the hillside, darting into the grass under the snow. "Let's hide for a bit!"

Zhang Shisan and Monk Yuanzhi were both stunned. "Dude, are you alright? There are footprints and traces. Do you think that girl is stupid?"

Zhou Fengchen pressed them down into a squatting position in the bushes, grinning, "You're forcing me to use underhanded methods!"

As he spoke, he formed hand seals and chanted, "Mysterious Eighteen, Five Elements Technique! The five elements of the world, in their respective seasons, nurture and create all things. Taoist magic is readily available. Metal generates water, so be it!"

With a single finger, a cloud of snowflakes rose up, completely concealing the footprints and traces in the grass, making them look perfectly natural.

Monk Yuanzhi gave a thumbs up.

Zhang Shisan looked at him with admiration, "You're incredibly skilled at the Five Elements Technique!"

"You're too kind!" Zhou Fengchen clasped his hands in a fist salute, pointed to the side, and said, "If we hide any further in, I suspect those young women will clear away the bushes nearby."

The group quietly crawled a little further in, then held their breath and dared not move.

Just then, four girls came chasing after them, cursing and swearing. They turned the corner and exclaimed in unison, "Huh? Where did they go?"

Zhou Fengchen and the other two peered through the narrow gap and saw four girls with wet hair, their faces flushed from the cold wind, fair necks and collarbones, slender figures, and a youthful and lively aura.

Wow! Aside from being nervous, it's actually quite interesting.

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at the distance and her surroundings, then said in confusion, "It doesn't make sense. How could the person suddenly disappear, and the footprints are gone too?"

Han Yu squatted down, dug through the snowdrift, looked left and right, shook his head, and said, "That's strange!"

Li Xin and Sang Xiaomi instinctively used the tips of their swords to clear away the snow covering the nearby bushes and peer inside. "Nothing there!"

Zhang Shisan and Monk Yuanzhi stared wide-eyed, thinking how close they had come to disaster. They both gave Zhou Fengchen a thumbs up, meaning that he had guessed correctly!

Zhou Fengchen clasped his hands slightly, meaning: You flatter me!

Su Xiaoxiao sighed, "They let those bastards get away!"

Han Yu asked, "Did you see who it was? Those clothes don't belong to the Miao people, and the only place with outsiders within a dozen miles is Guanxian Town. They must have come from that town."

"They..." Li Xin hesitated for a moment.

Zhang Shisan became nervous.

Li Xin said, "I feel like I've seen that bald, fat guy somewhere before!"

Sang Xiaomi exclaimed "Oh dear!" and clapped her hands. "That bald, fat guy seems to be following Zhang Shisan!"

Su Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth, "Let's storm their door!"

"Walk!"

The four girls turned the hillside and walked away, looking fierce.

Zhang Shisan and Monk Yuanzhi breathed a sigh of relief and were about to leave when Zhou Fengchen immediately stopped them and gave them a wink.

Zhang Shisan and his companion looked puzzled. Just then, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly jumped out from behind the hillside with a "Haha!" Then, after looking around and seeing no one, she said angrily, "There was no magic involved, the person really is gone!"

"Let's go! Let's go!"

The four girls then gradually walked away.

Zhou Fengchen yelled "Ah!" and jumped out of the bushes, lying down on the snow. "Oh my god! I was so nervous!"

Zhang Shisan and Monk Yuanzhi followed them out, lay down together, and said, "You're incredibly accurate at predicting people's hearts!"

"Accurate my foot! Those four girls are obviously shrewd; that's the bare minimum. My dad played hide-and-seek with me every day before he died, and it was much more exciting than this." Zhou Fengchen waved his hand and said, "The key thing now is, they seem to have guessed it's about you two!"

Zhang Shisan kicked Monk Yuanzhi, "Why are you so fat? You're too conspicuous!"

Monk Yuanzhi was furious. "When I brought you here yesterday, you didn't complain about my weight!"

Zhang Shisan chuckled, "Fine, we're even!"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Zhou Fengchen spat. "When we get to town, we absolutely cannot admit it! There are so many people there, it'll be embarrassing!"

Zhang Shisan also said, "That's right! They only said it seemed like it, but they weren't sure. I think we should get an alibi!"

"How do we do it?" Zhou Fengchen and Monk Yuanzhi asked in unison.

Zhang Shisan scratched his head and said, "Let's hurry back by taking a shortcut, climb in through the backyard, and ask the waiter to bring up a mutton hot pot. We'll pretend we've been drinking all day and haven't gone out."

"All done!"

The three of them got up and hurried towards Guanxian Town. By the time they arrived, it was already pitch black. They climbed over the back of the inn, entered their room, and immediately ran to the front window to look out onto the street.

Torches were lit in the street, and there were quite a few people on the street, but the four children were nowhere to be seen.

The three girls called over a waiter, and upon asking, they learned that none of the four girls had been there before. They breathed a sigh of relief and asked the waiter to prepare mutton hot pot, wild mushrooms, Chinese cabbage, and liquor.

These items were prepared by the restaurant next door and were served shortly afterward.

In Zhou Fengchen's room, the three of them closed the doors and windows, took off their shoes, and started eating around the mutton hot pot. While eating and drinking, they discussed how to deal with the four girls if they came looking for them later.

But in the end, since they didn't come, everything we said was just empty talk.

At this moment, Zhou Fengchen suddenly asked, "The nun Kuzhu is gone, so why aren't Han Fei, Su Luncai, and the other two here either?"

Zhang Shisan said, "The three of them went out to make money. A flying-headed woman appeared in Phoenix City!"

Monk Yuanzhi was taken aback. "Does such a thing really exist?"

I like the novel "The Strongest Master in the City".
