Chapter 395 - 393: What Are You Shouting About
Mo Shaoyun thought for a moment, then shook his head with a bitter smile. Indeed, it was quite baffling. After all, this hole in the wall didn’t prove anything. If it was, in fact, a fight, with the skills of the two involved, the surroundings shouldn’t be so intact.
The two speculated a bit and finally decided to move forward.
However, they remained tense, worried that something might happen. After all, this area was indeed the location of the previous plan.
It wasn’t long before the two reached the next zone. There wasn’t a single figure, just some setups meant to scare people. After Mo Shaoyun called a few times and got no response from Shangguan Wei, he concluded he wasn’t there.
At this moment, a noise came from behind them. As they turned around, they realized it was another group of tourists arriving. Not wanting to delay others’ route, they quickly moved forward.
A few minutes later, the two walked out of the haunted house.
Still, there was no news of Shangguan Wei, leaving Mo Shaoyun a bit anxious.
Although Shangguan Wei was a bit dull, he was undoubtedly one of the top fighters at the Pure Yang Martial Arts Hall. If something untoward happened to him, Pure Yang wouldn’t let it go.
Therefore, Mo Shaoyun decided that they had to find Shangguan Wei. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have an explanation. If he wandered off and harmed someone, it would be a disaster.
"Young Master Hao, what do we do now? Shangguan Wei is unfamiliar with this environment. If something happens, it could get troublesome. You know, he’s got a Yellow Dao Five-Star level strength, and his mind isn’t exactly clear...."
Mo Shaoyun said worriedly.
"Hmm, indeed. Let’s split up and look for him. He might still be in the amusement park."
Hao Jian thought it over and said. After all, this was their plan. If something did happen, Pure Yang’s people wouldn’t rest until they had their answer. It would mean disaster for the Wu and Han families.
They originally sought a backer, but now, it seemed they had gained an enemy instead.
"Alright, let’s split up and call each other when we find him," Mo Shaoyun proposed.
"Alright."
Hao Jian nodded in agreement.
So, the two began their search. About ten minutes later, it was Mo Shaoyun who first spotted Shangguan Wei, surrounded by many people who seemed to be looking at him as if he was a fool.
Mo Shaoyun saw Shangguan Wei from afar and sprinted over.
But what he saw stunned him.
At this moment, Shangguan Wei looked like a porcupine, with more than a dozen silver needles stuck all over his body. It was quite horrifying.
"Wei, what’s going on? Why is there... so much stuff on you?"
Mo Shaoyun’s eyes widened. How did Shangguan end up looking like he fell into a patch of cacti, covered in needles?
However, what baffled Mo Shaoyun even more was that Shangguan Wei seemed not to hear him, or rather, he seemed not to understand what Mo Shaoyun was saying, as his eyes wandered around.
"Wei...."
"Why are you making such a fuss? Who are you? Stop waking me up."
Though Shangguan Wei had lost his memory, his strength remained. His mind was blank now, feeling extremely tired, wanting nothing more than to close his eyes and rest.
Hence, he didn’t even bother to move his limbs, appearing like a mummy to outsiders.
Suddenly, with a boy making a racket by his ear, he was furious, almost lashing out.
Mo Shaoyun, hearing Shangguan Wei’s words, was startled, quickly stepping back a few paces. Knowing Shangguan Wei’s formidable strength, if he went berserk, wouldn’t he be doomed?
He thought there must be something strange about this situation. Looking again at the dozens of silver needles on Shangguan Wei’s body, he suddenly understood—it must have been something blocking his acupoints, causing him not to recognize him.
Then, he stepped forward again. Having seen some acupoint books before, he took a deep breath, straightened his fingers, imitating an action from a Jin Yong novel, and pressed hard on an acupoint on Shangguan Wei’s chest.
"Boom...."
"Aow...."
A dull noise accompanied by a heart-wrenching scream stunned Mo Shaoyun.
He never expected that his little action would cause this—wasn’t it supposed to unblock the acupoint? How did it explode?
The explosion sound just now wasn’t incidental. Mo Shaoyun had knocked off a silver needle, releasing the Powerful Qi compressed within, resulting in an explosion.
At this moment, Shangguan Wei almost passed out. That small explosion was more unbearable than taking a powerful move.
A small hole appeared on his chest, with blood gushing down, quickly soaking his clothes, staining a large area red.
"Damn!"
Shangguan Wei finally caught his breath from the pain, hastily pressing two spots on his chest, obviously to stop the bleeding.
Those with high skills generally knew some acupoint techniques. Of course, Shangguan Wei’s technique was far inferior to Chen Tianlong’s, as his could only stop bleeding while Chen Tianlong’s could kill—this was the difference.
"Boom...."
A muffled sound occurred as Mo Shaoyun flew backward, crashing hard on the ground, spitting out blood, nearly losing consciousness.
At this moment, Mo Shaoyun struggled to place his hand into his pocket, painstakingly retrieving his phone, only to find the screen shattered. He was truly at his wit’s end now.
Now, he couldn’t even notify Hao Jian.
As the crowd dispersed in panic, several security guards appeared, quickly surrounding them. Mo Shaoyun realized things had turned bad. The bumbling uncle would definitely get detained, complicating the situation.
As expected, three security guards surrounded him, looking at Shangguan Wei as if he was crazy. A security guard in his forties or fifties said, "Brother, what are you up to? Performing tricks? Covered in needles."
Shangguan Wei slightly lifted his head, glanced faintly, and then returned to his original position, continuing to sleep with his eyes closed, completely ignoring the security guard’s intent.
Originally, the old security guard meant to be polite, not wanting to be too harsh, just inquiring about the situation. Later, when taking him to the police station, they could see if they could assist. However, seeing his arrogance and lack of manners, the guard started to flare up.
"Brother, I’m asking you. Did you injure that young man just now? Someone witnessed it and called it in to the police room. Is this true?"
The old security guard felt he should give this man another chance, as if there was a misunderstanding, it could be resolved on the spot.
"Why are you making so much noise? Can’t you see I’m trying to sleep?"
After Shangguan Wei’s recent pain, he couldn’t be bothered to get up. Simply closing his eyes to sleep seemed best, as his mind was blank. Right now, his IQ was probably around that of a three-year-old.
"What?"
The two young security guards standing by were also shocked.
Is this guy crazy? He spoke so politely, yet he showed impatience. One tall, thin, young guard said, "Don’t think we won’t arrest you. We’re giving you a chance; you’d better explain the situation, or we’ll take you in directly!"
The young guard couldn’t stand it anymore. It was the first time he had encountered such an arrogant, brazen person.
