Chapter 7.11- The Southern Faction

Wulang Huazha rode on the horse with Little Brother Zhang slung over its back like luggage.

After they caught up with the procession, many people looked at Wulang Huazha’s eye, which was now bandaged with a turban. They marched slowly among the procession so that Little Brother Zhang could observe everyone closely.

Wulang Huazha hadn’t dared make any moves before, but now he suddenly had the urge to kill Little Brother Zhang. He immediately turned around but stopped when he caught sight of Little Brother Zhang’s movements. Little Brother Zhang’s whole body was twitching like some kind of monster.

At that moment, the leader realized that the man hanging behind him on the horse was laughing.

It was that ferocious smiling face amid such high-speed movement that made the leader realize that he had no chance of winning. Little Brother Zhang’s behavior was a clear indicator of the disparity between the two men’s strength. The leader had thought he was at an absolute advantage, but the other party merely seemed to be using small tricks to deal with him.

“Do you really have no idea where the bride is hiding?” Little Brother Zhang asked after looking around.

Wulang Huazha shook his head, “Sir, we’re the security team. We serve as guards for the rich people and spend most of our time hunting. The details for sending off the bride are all planned by the bride’s family.”

“They didn’t warn you to pay special attention to anything?”

“No. The line is so long. People at the front think the bride is at the back, and people at the back think the bride is at the front. I didn’t realize the bride had disappeared until you mentioned it.” Wulang Huazha’s eye hurt so much that he kept squirming in pain.

Little Brother Zhang changed to a more comfortable position on the horse’s back. As he lay on his back and looked at the darkness above him, he suddenly remembered something. He quickly sat up and looked at the darkness around him.

“Go to the side,” Little Brother Zhang said. “Put out the torch.”

“What’s wrong, sir?”

“There’s another group,” Little Brother Zhang said. “Out of all the people who were chasing us, there’s a group of people I still haven’t seen.”

The best way to hide wasn’t by hiding in the crowd, but by creating another procession that was walking in the dark parallel to the main procession with its colorful lights, gongs, and drums. This procession didn’t have any torches and the sounds of their footsteps were muffled by the gongs and drums of the main procession. They hid in the shadows where the long rows of colorful lights couldn’t illuminate them.

Wulang Huazha slowly left the procession, put out his torch in the mud, and plunged into the darkness at a diagonal angle. As the horse walked into the depths of the forest, they gradually heard the faint sound of horses’ hooves.

Wulang Huazha slowly approached and saw a group of Abi people dressed in straw hats and cloaks who were walking silently in the dark. The horses’ mouths were sealed and their hooves were covered with straw mats. There was a shadow of a girl with a crown on her head sitting among the group of riders.

It should be the bride.

The area was extremely dark here, but the leader of that procession seemed to be very familiar with the road, so the people and horses all stuck together.

With the help of the moonlight, Little Brother Zhang saw vague shadows before his eyes. No one spoke or made any sudden movements, which made him feel like they were sending off a corpse.

Wulang Huazha’s equestrian skills were very good, so his horse barely made a sound as it approached them. It was completely dark as they got closer and closer to the procession.

Little Brother Zhang pulled the belt off his hands and said softly to Wulang Huazha, “Wait for me here.” With that said, he rolled over and dismounted from the horse.

In an almost completely dark environment, he relied on his instincts as he made his way into the procession. After a few turns, he came up beside the bride’s horse.

Everyone was walking forward stiffly, so he took the opportunity to jump onto the bride’s horse and cover her mouth. He pressed her arms down as he said in a very soft voice, “I’m here to rescue you.”

He was very thorough when it came to observing human bodies, so he clearly remembered the bride’s height and figure. Even though he had only met her for a short time on the street, he was able to remember all the details very clearly.

After he wrapped his hands around her arms, he found that his hands weren’t pressed on her waist like he had expected. Instead, they came to rest on her two exquisite, plump breasts. He froze for a moment as he wondered why this girl was suddenly shorter. Then, he touched them again.

When he had met the bride earlier, her breasts were barely visible because of her clothes. This bride’s breasts, however, felt very good to touch. They were like the big steamed buns in Xiamen that bounced and had cute shapes.

“Are you done groping me?” The bride whispered.

Little Brother Zhang was stunned for a moment. He was just wondering why her voice sounded so familiar when he suddenly realized what was going on. “Zhang Haiqi.”

“Let go of me. You’re an adult now. There’s no need to touch your mother’s breast. I’m still fucking young,” Zhang Haiqi whispered.

“Why are you here? Where’s the bride?”

“I’ve switched with the bride. What, am I supposed to wait for you while I go about my business?” Zhang Haiqi said in the Sichuan dialect, “Now I’m the bride. Get off the horse. If I’m going to remarry, there’s no way I can even enter the door with you getting in the way.”
