Chapter 532: Chapter 533: Wu Chen’s Changes Over Time
Although Huo Tian didn’t intentionally tell him, Wu Chen was clear that Huo Tian absolutely didn’t want Su Changfeng to know about this matter.
Listening to Wu Chen’s words, Su Changfeng couldn’t believe it. It was because Wu Chen’s attitude had completely changed as if he were a different person, making Su Changfeng suspect that Wu Chen had a dual personality. Otherwise, how could his attitude change so drastically?
He had just asked Wang Tianhu to kill him and Dao Jiu, but now Wu Chen was telling him to take Wang Tianhu down the mountain. This change was a bit too quick.
When Dao Jiu woke up, Su Changfeng forced himself to endure his discomfort and went out of the cave with Dao Jiu.
"Brother Changfeng, what happened?" Dao Jiu asked Su Changfeng suspiciously. When Wang Tianhu acted, Dao Jiu thought he was going to die, but the current situation seemed a bit strange.
Dao Jiu still remembered Wu Chen’s attitude towards the two of them, which was full of disdain. But just now, Wu Chen had obviously restrained himself a lot.
"I also find it very strange. Wu Chen’s attitude contrast is too great, it’s like he’s two different people. Does that old guy have a dual personality?" Su Changfeng asked.
Although Dao Jiu had some contact with Wu Chen, he didn’t thoroughly understand Wu Chen’s character, so he couldn’t judge this point.
"Brother Changfeng, why don’t we leave now? I’m afraid of any sudden changes in this situation." Dao Jiu said. Since Wu Chen was currently willing to let them go, they should seize the opportunity to leave immediately in case Wu Chen changed his mind.
"Given your current state, do you think you can leave?" Su Changfeng also wanted to leave immediately, but after being hit by Wang Tianhu, just standing up would require gritting his teeth, let alone going down the mountain.
The mountain road was particularly rugged. Even when they weren’t injured, it took a lot of effort, and if they left now, they might become food for the big creatures in the mountains.
"I fear that old guy might do something." Dao Jiu said anxiously.
Su Changfeng thought for a while and said, "Wu Chen asked us to take Wang Tianhu away, so I guess nothing will happen. We should rest for a while first."
Since Su Changfeng said so, Dao Jiu had to agree.
Although staying here was quiet without the bustle of modern cities and civilization, some things surprised Su Changfeng and Dao Jiu. They had been eating exceptionally well for the past few days, every meal filled with game whose rich aroma made their mouths water, even without seasoning.
That evening, Wang Tianhu used a rabbit trap to catch several rabbits, which he roasted over the fire, dripping with oil. Su Changfeng and Dao Jiu ate until their mouths were greasy, constantly burping, and slept soundly.
The next day, both of them had recovered considerably, but Su Changfeng wasn’t in a hurry to leave.
In the morning, while Wang Tianhu was practicing in the forest, Su Changfeng and Dao Jiu watched intensely from the side. The tree Wang Tianhu struck kept trembling, and the rustling leaves made Su Changfeng and Dao Jiu feel as if the mountain was trembling with each hit.
"Isn’t Wang Tianhu just a mere human? If an average person were hit like that, they definitely wouldn’t survive." Su Changfeng sighed.
Dao Jiu’s eyes were wide, almost falling out of their sockets. The training he had in the army seemed inhumane to him, but now compared to Wang Tianhu, it was nothing. The two weren’t even in the same league.
"Don’t say just ordinary people. Even if it were the two of us, if Wang Tianhu used his full strength on us, we might not survive. It seems like Wang Tianhu didn’t use his full force yesterday." Dao Jiu said with a fearful expression.
If Wang Tianhu had unleashed his current power yesterday, they’d probably be having tea with King Yama now; how could they still be standing here?
"Do you think Wang Tianhu can compete against that person from the Boxing Arena?" Su Changfeng asked confusedly. Chen Chen was exceptionally strong; even Dong Hao wasn’t his match. Thus he couldn’t definitively determine who was stronger between Chen Chen and Wang Tianhu.
Dao Jiu found it equally impossible to answer this question. Who was stronger or weaker could only be known through a fight since no one could predict the outcome.
"Even if he can’t beat him, he probably won’t lose." Dao Jiu said.
"That’s good enough. As long as Wang Tianhu stays unbeaten, Chen Chen won’t pose a threat to us." Su Changfeng was particularly satisfied to find such an expert as Wang Tianhu. Even if Wang Tianhu really couldn’t defeat Chen Chen, he wouldn’t feel any regret, as there weren’t many such experts to be found in the world.
After staying on the mountain for two days, Su Changfeng and Dao Jiu kept watching Wang Tianhu’s training and then the three of them finally descended the mountain.
As they were leaving, Wu Chen called Wang Tianhu aside and gave him many instructions. However, Su Changfeng didn’t know what they were and didn’t care much. Finding a helper like Wang Tianhu was satisfactory for him, even if Wu Chen had other plans, it was perfectly normal.
Wang Tianhu had a particularly large build. His usual practice and strength relied on brute force, which made him particularly clumsy and lacking in agility. This was apparent as they descended the mountain because Wang Tianhu often stumbled on the difficult path.
They finally reached the spot where Su Changfeng and the others had parked before climbing the mountain. Wang Tianhu seemed to see something new, circling around the car twice before asking Su Changfeng, "Brother Changfeng, what is this thing?"
"How old were you when you went into the mountains?" Su Changfeng asked puzzledly. Cars were common in today’s society, and even children from impoverished families who hadn’t ridden in one had at least seen one before, but for Wang Tianhu, this was apparently the first time.
"My master told me I went up the mountain when I was 2 or 3 years old." Wang Tianhu replied.
"Have you never come down once?" Su Changfeng asked in disbelief. If that were true, it would mean Wang Tianhu was completely isolated from modern society.
"Yeah." Wang Tianhu nodded and said, "My master has always stayed on the mountain, so I naturally stayed on the mountain too. Hurry up and tell me what this thing is."
"It’s called a car. People can sit inside and it moves very fast. If you want to understand what it is, go up and experience it." Su Changfeng helped Wang Tianhu open the car door.
Wang Tianhu was so big that it took him a lot of effort to sit inside. Su Changfeng smiled wryly and said to Dao Jiu, "Judging by the situation, we’ll need to buy a larger car when we get back."
Even though it was a little cramped, Wang Tianhu, who was riding in a car for the first time, didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. On the contrary, he was very excited.
Once the car started, Wang Tianhu, like a child discovering a new world, watched the scenery flying by outside the window, as happy as a 200-pound kid.
