Chapter 46 - Rescue

The men in the SUV did not say much. They picked up their weapons and ran toward Long Zhanyuan. “Go to hell!” They did not use guns. Instead, they chose the most primitive weapon, the longsword.

Long Zhanyuan was mad, “You are courting death!” He fought with his bare hands and kicked off a man’s long sword. After that, he held the head and twisted his neck with a click. The young men beside him fought with bare hands too. Both of them were brave and fierce. The vibe among them was truly appalling.

Song Yang watched them fight and got a little heated up, “Big brother, who are those people? Why do they want to kill these three people?” It looked like these burly men who suddenly appeared were not the opponents of these three people at all. Song Xiuyan saw that too, so he did not save Long Zhanyuan immediately. He saw another truck approaching not far away, and the back of the truck was full of people. He tugged on Song Yang’s sleeve and made a sudden realization face Song Yang. “I recognize him. This old man seems to be General Long Zhanyuan! I remember his appearance because I have seen his portrait!” he said.

Song Yang was shocked, “No way? How could General Long Zhanyuan appear in such a small place here?” His achievements had been spread around the place a long time ago. He was famous in Hua Xia. He was Song Yang’s favourite hero too.

“Let’s go and save General Long Zhanyuan!” Song Yang, who was full of enthusiasm, quickly made a decision.

“Okay, let’s use the powder made by Ding Yao to deal with those strong men’s helpers first.” As soon as Song Xiuyan finished his sentences, the car reached beside them. The men in the car drew their long swords respectively, ready to jump down and join the fight. At this moment, Song Xiuyan spilt a packet of poison powder on them!

“Ahhhhhhh …” The carriage was filled with screams instantly. They covered their eyes and jumped off the carriage like crazy. The men seated at the back who were not hit started to wave their long swords towards Song’s brothers and tried to kill them.

Song’s brothers had each solved the strong man who was hit by the powder and picked up their long swords in hand. Both of them faced the enemy by standing back to back without fear. Their family had an ancestral secret book of martial arts. The book was related to inner strength, heart, boxing, and foot moves. Other than that, they had another set of sword recipes with endless variations. Usually, they practised by using bamboo swords only. However, it did not affect their performances at the moment. A dozen men surrounded them but still couldn’t hurt them for a while.

At that moment, one of the men surrounding General Long Zhanyuan shouted, “Are you guys blind? Our target is here! Why are you all leaving the target man unkilled, but fighting with those irrelevant people?”

The burly men surrounding Song’s brother suddenly realized and switched their targets to Long Zhanyuan. They were blocked by Song Xiuyan and Song Yang. Long Zhanyuan and his followers had grabbed their long swords in hand. However, there were too many enemies. At the same time, they used the formation technique. Therefore, they couldn’t break out in a short time.

Long Zhanyuan noticed them and wondered what happened outside the formation. Why did these two young men with skilful martial arts help them? The two fighting groups finally converged. All of the men gathered Song Xiuyan, Song Yang, and General Long Zhanyuan in the middle.

“Who are you guys?” While fighting with the enemy, General Long Zhanyuan asked Song Xiuyan and Song Yang in a deep voice.

“We are villagers from the Song family village who passed by this place. Are you General Long Zhanyuan?” Song Yang asked with full enthusiasm.

“Yes, I am!” Long Zhanyuan called out his name confidently.

The admiration and fanaticism in Song Yang’s eyes raised to a higher level. “That’s great! We didn’t help the wrong person! You are General Long Zhanyuan!” he shouted.

It’s inappropriate to talk too much when faced with a vicious enemy, therefore Song Xiuyan kept quiet. General Long Zhanyuan stopped wasting his energy and concentrated more on the battle. Five of them fought bloodily and finished killing off all the men quickly. Apart from Song Xiuyan, the other four people had different degrees of injury. Song Yang was stabbed with a sword on his left arm. The whole arm was stained with blood. Both of General Long Zhanyuan’s followers were quite injured. One of them injured his thigh, while the other injured his back.

General Long Zhanyuan’s right shoulder was injured. If Song Yang had not rescued him in time, his whole arm might cut off by the enemy. Without the Song brothers, Long Zhanyuan and his followers would die here. General Long Zhanyuan was always cold-hearted. But now he was full of gratitude to Song Xiuyan and Song Yang.
