Chapter - 83 Endless Joy At the Reunion of the Seven Swordsmen (9)

WuJi jumped off the horse. He saw his parents and second uncle leap as if they're flying, clapped his hands and yelled, "Great! Great!" When suddenly, the soldier Zhang CuiShan knocked down with the spear sprung up. He quickly grabbed WuJi, jumped onto a horse, and began to gallop away.

Yu LianZhou and the Zhang couple gasped in shock. They quickly gave chase. Yu LianZhou leapt just two times before catching up to the horse. He jumped up again, and shot out with his left palm, aimed at that soldier's back. That soldier didn't even bother to turn around. His palm came out behind, matching Yu LianZhou's palm. Yu LianZhou sensed the opposing palm sending out an extremely powerful force, filled with incredibly icy yin-based inner power. Yu LianZhou felt like his whole body was frozen. He stuttered a bit, and retreated a few steps.

That soldier also couldn't handle Yu LianZhou's palm either, and fell off the horse. He then carried WuJi and ran forward. Applying lightness kung fu, he was already forty-some meters away in an instant.

When Zhang CuiShan caught up to Yu LianZhou, he saw a pale expression on his second brother. Knowing that he's seriously injured, Zhang CuiShan went over to help him.

Yin SuSu cared deeply for her child, and kept chasing. But that Mongolian soldier's lightness kung fu is much better than hers. He quickly disappeared into the distance. Even so, Yin SuSu still wouldn't give up. She only had one thought in mind, "Even if it costs me my life, I still must get my son back."

Yu LianZhou whispered, "Quick, get sister-in-law to stop chasing…" Zhang CuiShan raised his spear and killed the two soldiers besides them. He asked, "How's your injury?" Yu LianZhou said, "It's no big deal. First… first catch sister-in-law." Zhang CuiShan was afraid that there are more kung fu experts among the remaining soldiers. So he went around and killed all the soldiers first. Then he got on a horse to chase after Yin SuSu.

After a few miles, he finally saw Yin SuSu. But her steps are staggered, obviously from exhaustion. Zhang CuiShan picked her up onto the horse. Yin SuSu pointed forward, and cried in tears, "He's gone. I couldn't catch up, couldn't catch up." And then her eyes closed, and fainted.

Zhang CuiShan worried about Yu LianZhou, and thought, "I must first take care of second brother, then worry about WuJi." He turned his horse around, and returned to Yu LianZhou, only to see him meditating on the ground, readjusting his flow of chi.

Yin SuSu slowly regained consciousness, and immediately yelled, "WuJi! WuJi!" Yu LianZhou's face also slowly regained its color, opened his eyes, and said softly, "What amazing palm power!"

Upon hearing his second brother speak, Zhang CuiShan knew the injuries aren't life threatening. Zhang CuiShan calmed a bit, but still afraid to converse with Yu LianZhou. Yu LianZhou slowly got up, and said softly, "Is he gone?" Yin SuSu cried, "Second brother-in-law, what… what should we do?" Yu LianZhou said, "This person's kung fu is very good. He won't harm a little kid." Yin SuSu said, "But… but he kidnapped WuJi."

Yu LianZhou nodded, and put one hand on Zhang CuiShan's shoulder. After thinking for a while, he said, "I can't figure out the origin of his kung fu. Let's go ask master about it." Yin SuSu felt extremely irritated, said, "Second brother-in-law. We have to find a way to get back WuJi first. The kidnapper's origin doesn't matter right now." Yu LianZhou shook his head.

Zhang CuiShan said, "SuSu. Second brother's seriously wounded. That person's kung fu is also incredibly high. Even if we catch up, what can we do?" Yin SuSu said impatiently, "So… so are we just going to give up?" Zhang CuiShan said, "Even if we don't find him, he's going to come to us."

Yin SuSu is normally very intelligent, but the loss of her child really messed up her mind. But upon her husband's words, she immediately understood everything. If that soldier could injure Yu LianZhou in one blow, he could easily kill her and her husband. But instead, the soldier simply kidnapped WuJi. Obviously, the soldier wants to know Xie Xun's location. When Zhang CuiShan knocked him down with the spear, none of them cared to examine his appearance. Now that they thought back to it, that soldier looked like a typical Mongol soldier.

Zhang CuiShan sent his second brother onto the horse, and grabbed the horse's leash. The three horses strolled forward. Upon reaching An Lu City, they rested at a small inn. After asking the worker to send in food, the three stayed in the room. They were afraid of meeting more soldiers and get into trouble.After killing those soldiers on the road, they knew the government would retaliate by killing more innocent people. But at that moment, they could hardly ignore the situation. This is called 'The cruel fate of a conquered nation, country rich and vast, yet people live in torment'.

Yu LianZhou kept circulating his chi, trying to heal his injury. Zhang CuiShan sat besides him. Yin SuSu leaned back on her chair, but could not sleep. At midnight, Yu LianZhou stood up, and walked around the room three times to loosen up. He said, "Fifth brother, other than master, I've never met such a powerful person."

Yin SuSu only had her son in mind, and said, "He kidnapped WuJi, obviously to find sworn brother's location. I wonder if WuJi would say it." Zhang CuiShan said, "If WuJi said it, would he still be our son?" Yin SuSu said, "Right! He absolutely would not say it." Suddenly, she began to cry. Zhang CuiShan quickly asked, "What's going on?" Yin SuSu choked with sobs, said, "If WuJi won't answer, that monster… that monster would certainly beat him, perhaps they'd even use… use the torture chamber."

Yu LianZhou sighed. Zhang CuiShan said, "If jade isn't carved, it won't turn into a tool. This might be a good experience for him." Although he says this, Zhang CuiShan's heart is filled with grief, and the hope that WuJi's ok. But if WuJi is resting peacefully right now, then he must've told his godfather's location. It's much better for WuJi to be tortured than for him to be ungrateful and dishonorable. Zhang CuiShan thought, "Rather for him to be dead than live as a dishonorable person." He glanced at his wife, only to see tear-filled face with a grief-stricken, pitiful expression. He shuddered and thought, "If that person came and pressured with WuJi's life, perhaps SuSu might give in." So He said, "Second brother, are you alright now?"

The two brothers grew up together. Through just a single question and expression, they could read each other's thoughts. Yu LianZhou looked at the couple's expressions, and realized Zhang CuiShan's intention. He said, "I'm fine. Let's leave tonight."

Under the cover of darkness, the three traveled on the smaller roads. They weren't afraid of that person coming to kill them, but rather he torture WuJi in front of them.

But by traveling this way, they had no problems on the road. However, grief-stricken by the loss of her son, Yin SuSu became ill. Zhang CuiShan hired two mule-carts to carry Yin SuSu and Yu LianZhou. He himself rode his horse on the side. They finally passed by the city of Xiang Yang, and stopped at an inn in the town of Tai Ping Dian to rest.

Zhang CuiShan took care of his second brother, and was about to return to his own room. When suddenly a man opened the door and came in. This person held a horsewhip in his hand, and looked like a cart-driver. He looked at Zhang and Yu, let out a snicker, and walked back out. Zhang CuiShan knew he's up to no good, and felt quite annoyed at his blatant disrespect. Just as that man released the door curtain to leave, Zhang CuiShan grabbed the curtain, applied his inner power, and sent it forward. The bottom of the curtain swung up, and hit that man squarely on the back, sent him flying before falling flat on his face.
