Chapter 310 Beast in the Way!
“Rumble…”
A large roar of the engine was heard from the snow.
Looking from a distance, there were more than a dozen traffic policemen riding motorcycles speeding towards them, not afraid of falling to the ground.
“Get out of here, all of you, turn around, run…”
The traffic police were shouting urgently.
Hearing that, the crowd was stunned.
“Run? Why should we run?” Everyone was confused.
There were no mountains or rivers on either side of the road, so it was impossible for mudslide or flood to appear, not to mention avalanche.
There was a small mountain next to them. But it couldn’t be an avalanche.
Just as everyone was in doubt, those traffic police who were driving the motorcycles finally stopped at the roadblocks that had been placed to block the road.
“Turn around and get the hell out of here.”
As soon as he got out of the car, a traffic policeman immediately shouted to the crowd who were stopped by the roadblocks. He shouted in an anxious tone and looked frightened.
“Why should we turn around? What’s going on up there?”
“Yeah, we still need to bring New Year greetings to our relatives. Why block the road?”
“What the hell is going on?”
“I don’t think there’s anything wrong. It’s just the snow. The road is not slippery at all. There’s no need to block the road, right?”
“Sir, please take down the roadblocks and let us go through. Since it’s the new year’s holiday, we’ll be extremely careful. The road is pretty flat though. We won’t bring you any trouble.”
The drivers got off their cars to negotiate with the traffic police.
“Stop!” While hearing what they said, the policeman instantly became anxious and shouted loudly, “It’s not about causing us trouble. There’s danger ahead. We just got a call which said that there was a beast on the road. We just went to the spot a while ago and found that the beast was quite big and had already hurt a lot of people. Now the armed police and firemen are coming. The road is now sealed. No one can cross it. Do you understand?”
“If you understand, turn around and leave here right away. Anyone who makes any trouble without reason will be regarded as obstructing the police in the course of their duty.”
When that came out, the drivers were stunned.
Helplessly, they could only turn around and return to the other road.
Fang Qiu also got in the car. His father drove them back to the road they took before.
“Wait.” When they came to an area where no one passed by, Fang Qiu, who had been frowning, suddenly said, “Dad, stop the car.”
From what the traffic policeman said just now, Fang Qiu learned that there was a giant beast attacking people on the road ahead.
Under normal circumstances, if it were just a lion or tiger, they wouldn’t need so many people to handle it. Now there were roadblocks, armed forces, and firemen.
Judging from this situation, the beast that the policeman talked about was not just an ordinary animal.
Maybe this one was the same as the giant toad.
If it was such a monster, even if the armed police arrived, it wouldn’t be easy for them to take down the monster. They could even get killed.
Thinking of this, Fang Qiu couldn’t just stand by.
But why this kind of beast would show up in a place like this?
Weren’t all these beasts supposed to be hiding in the middle of nowhere and barely showing up?
There must be something wrong with this.
“What’s the matter?” Pulling over the car, Fang Qiu’s dad asked.
“Nothing, I’m just worried.” Fang Qiu beamed. “You and mom go back home first, I need to have a look.”
“What?” Fang Qiu was trying to get out of the car but was immediately stopped by his mother. “Don’t you see the look of those traffic police? That beast has hurt lots of people. Don’t be silly, son. That thing will eat people!” Fang Qiu’s mom tried to talk him out of it.
Then she urged his father to drive away.
However, just as his dad was about to start the car, Fang Qiu suddenly shouted and immediately covered his stomach. “I have diarrhea. My stomach hurts. I want to get out of the car.”
While his mother was distracted, Fang Qiu opened the car door and jumped out.
“Come back here, Fang Qiu!” His mother yelled.
Fang Qiu wouldn’t listen to her.
However, both Fang Qiu and his father didn’t hear what she said.
His father was completely stunned by what he saw.
He could clearly see when Fang Qiu opened the car door and jumped out of the car, a huge figure suddenly rushed to them and stopped in the middle of the road.
“Ah!!!” At the sight of the huge beast, Fang Qiu’s mother was immediately frightened and cried out.
“Fang Qiu, get in the car! Get in the car now!” His mother yelled at him constantly.
But Fang Qiu didn’t reply.
Standing in front of the car, Fang Qiu stared at the huge animal.
As Fang Qiu took a closer look, he found that the beast looked like a hyena living in African Savannah. It was huge, which was about three meters long and two meters high, much taller than Fang Qiu.
The hyena had spots on its body. Its fur was a bit like that of the leopard, while its head looked like that of a fox or a dog. With its ears standing straight, it opened its drooling mouth, revealing the sharp tusks.
It seemed angry with those red eyes. It looked so scary.
“Howl!” Suddenly it made a sound like a wolf.
It looked like it was about to attack.
Narrowing his eyes, Fang Qiu didn’t have time to worry anything else. He channeled his power to frighten the hyena, shouting loudly, “Go away!”
“Woo-hoo…”
The hyena crouched on the ground, bellowing angrily and staring at Fang Qiu. But it didn’t dare to pounce because it could sense very dangerous power from Fang Qiu.
That power forced it to stay still, which was so strong that it couldn’t bear any longer.
“Howl!”
After a while, the giant hyena bellowed and turned to run away.
Seeing that, Fang Qiu’s parents finally relieved.
Both of them were frightened. The hyena looked as if it were about to eat Fang Qiu alive, which made them have their hearts in their mouths.
“Fang Qiu, come back here!”
“Get in the car right now,” His mother shouted.
Fang Qiu, who was about to chase the hyena, turned round at once and said, “You go home first, and I’ll go back by myself later. I need to deal with that beast.”
Then he moved and walked right through the snow.
In order to comfort his parents, Fang Qiu also especially showed his method of treading on the snow without leaving a trace.
Fang Qiu’s mother was freaked out.
In the blink of an eye, Fang Qiu had run over ten meters away. Seeing her son disappearing from sight, she was so anxious.
“Don’t worry.” Fang Qiu’s father quickly hugged her and pointed to the snow. “You see? Our son didn’t only scare the monster away but also didn’t leave a footprint when he stepped on the snow. He knows what he is doing. He would be fine.”
Hearing that, Fang Qiu’s mother looked at the snow and found that there was no footprint at all.
They were dumbfounded. Their son could tread on the snow without leaving a trace.
Did he know how to use Qing Kung?
How would he know that? They thought he was studying Chinese medicine. Was that still their son?
Fang Qiu kept chasing and following behind the hyena, running deep into the forest.
The hyena found that Fang Qiu was chasing it.
It occasionally stopped to howl at Fang Qiu and then continued to run in the deep forest.
Unfortunately, it was still too slow for Fang Qiu.
However, instead of catching the hyena, he chose to keep following it so that he could see its nest.
He knew that most of the hyenas lived alone, but they hunted in groups. If there were other hyenas out there, it would be better to finish them once for all, or more people would be hurt by them.
The hyena had run through so many mountains.
It ran all the way to the top of the mountain before it stopped.
“Howl…” The hyena turned to face Fang Qiu and didn’t take a step back, staring furiously at Fang Qiu.
“No other hyenas?”
After making sure there were no other hyenas around, Fang Qiu clenched his fists and rushed toward the giant hyena.
“Well. I can take this opportunity to test my strength of the grade-one Martial Superior after I re-developed my meridians.”
The hyena seemed furious. Without any hesitation, it pounced straight at Fang Qiu.
It had incredibly sharp paws and moved swiftly, which were far more powerful than Long Boan, who had already practiced the Dragon’s Claw to a certain level.
Fighting the hyena, Fang Qiu suddenly realized though this hyena was so big, it could attack swiftly and flexibly. While it just held out its left paw, its right paw was ready to attack.
Just before it put down its paws, half of its body immediately turned around, ready to launch the next attack.
Dodging two blows from the hyena, Fang Qiu was about to strike its chest. However, when the hyena’s forepaws just fell to the ground, its hind paws pounced and struck ferociously towards Fang Qiu.
Fang Qiu was startled and instantly took a step back.
When he did that, the hyena immediately pounced to him again.
This time, it didn’t just use its paws. It also struck with mouth and tail with incredible speed, which directly suppressed Fang Qiu. The hyena struck madly.
“Well, I’m impressed.” Fang Qiu gasped and was surprised that the hyena was so powerful.
However, that was exactly what Fang Qiu wanted.
If he wanted to beat the hyena, he could have just knocked the hyena out with all his strength. But he didn’t do that, for he felt the huge pressure on this hyena.
Under the stimulation and force of the pressure, Fang Qiu clearly felt that his internal Qi which was stored in the Lung Meridian of Hand-Taiyin had begun to show a tendency to condense. Fang Qiu was surprised.
As the pressure from the hyena increased, the internal Qi of his meridians actually began to condense.
Meanwhile, Fang Qiu remained to be suppressed.
For some reason, the hyena couldn’t stop attacking him.
After a long while, when the internal Qi in his body was fully condensed, he was so close to making a breakthrough. But the speed of condensing slowed down, and he couldn’t improve his internal Qi anymore.
Fang Qiu then turned to attack, looking for the right moment to directly hit the hyena’s hind legs.
