118: Like a lion hunting a rabbit, it goes all out.

Chen Yang smiled faintly.

"If Uncle Ming doesn't follow us, how can the other party feel at ease?"

Lilac thought for a moment, as if she had gained some insight.

"You want to... lure the enemy into a trap?"

Chen Yang nodded.

"Exactly!"

"The raw stones, you, and I, are all bait!"

"Hehe!"

"You are the sweet jujube, sweetening his mouth."

"I will be the steel ball that shatters his teeth!"

"Hmph!"

Lilac playfully hit him with a light fist.

"You are the sweet jujube!"

On the other side.

Uncle Ming immediately called Ding Qiufeng to report the situation.

Everything was normal!

He would follow the entire way and immediately report any changes.

Ding Qiufeng was very satisfied!

He praised Uncle Ming profusely and casually drew him a few more 'big cakes' (promised future rewards).

He told Uncle Ming to keep up the good work!

Ding Qiufeng, having known the time and route in advance, set off first.

A long motorcade.

He had brought at least dozens of people.

"Mr. Tian, are your men ready?"

Kameda Shoji and Ding Qiufeng.

They were sitting together in a luxury business van.

"Young Master Ding, I used my connections and spent a great deal of money."

"I hired 10 experts from the underworld."

"Among them."

"There are 3 Advanced War Generals, all rare great experts who can definitely crush them."

"What's more."

"To silence witnesses, I also had them all bring guns."

"It guarantees foolproof success!"

Ding Qiufeng laughed heartily.

"Hahaha..."

"Good!"

"I have only two demands."

"First, seize the raw stones!"

"Second, turn Lilac and Chen Yang into sieves."

Kameda Shoji immediately guaranteed that there would be no problem.

"Master Tian, as long as you help me settle this matter this time."

"Next, I will be the Ding Family's presumptive successor."

"My influence within the Ding Family will certainly increase greatly."

"At that time, the cooperation between us will definitely deepen further."

It must be said.

Ding Qiufeng was truly a master of making empty promises.

Right after finishing one for Uncle Ming, he baked another one for Kameda Shoji.

Piping hot!

It looked very delicious.

Kameda Shoji was overjoyed!

He had already begun imagining.

The beautiful scene of secretly manipulating Ding Qiufeng, utilizing the Ding Family channels.

And transporting all of Dragon Country's antique national treasures back to Japan.

Soon.

Zhuo Wuyang and Zhuo Xiaogang were picked up by the car.

Chen Yang replaced Lilac as the temporary person in charge.

He was fully authorized to command this escort mission.

The motorcade officially set off.

There were a total of four vehicles.

One large box truck carrying the jade raw stones.

Three black Mercedes-Benz vehicles, all of which were armored.

Uncle Ming was unaware of this fact.

Among them.

Uncle Ming and a small assistant sat in one car, leading the way.

Lilac and Chen Yang shared a car, following closely behind, directing from the center.

The large truck was sandwiched in the middle for maximum protection.

The last vehicle.

Zhuo Wuyang and Zhuo Xiaogang were inside it.

The total journey would take 5 hours.

Departing at 1 PM.

They would arrive in Jiangcheng at 6 PM.

According to the planned route.

There was only one place where Ding Qiufeng could make his move.

That was the Heifengling Rest Stop.

Because the entire route was on the highway.

It was impossible for Ding Qiufeng to attack them while they were traveling at high speed.

He had to wait until the cars stopped.

Or even when the people got out of the cars.

That would be the best time to attack.

There were originally three rest stops along the way.

However.

Due to recent renovations and repairs, the gas stations at two of the rest stops were closed for refueling.

Only the gas station at Heifengling could operate normally.

Therefore.

When planning the route, Chen Yang set the halfway rest point here.

With Uncle Ming acting as the informant.

Chen Yang successfully guided Ding Qiufeng to choose Heifengling as the location for the ambush.

There was still an hour and a half left.

Before they reached the Heifengling Rest Stop.

Chen Yang closed his eyes to rest his mind.

But in reality, he was summoning the System in his heart.

His own strength was still slightly lacking.

Especially his marksmanship.

It was simply atrocious!

He had to find a way to improve it again.

Even a lion hunting a rabbit must use its full strength.

Let alone himself?

This time.

Ding Qiufeng's preparations were definitely very thorough.

With the assistance of Kameda Shoji, this spy.

He would surely invite experts from Japan, disguised as Dragon Country citizens, to set up an inescapable ambush.

A slight slip-up meant eternal damnation!

Chen Yang could not afford to be careless in the slightest.

"Random draw."

[Ding!]

[Detecting Host currently possesses points: 350.]

[Three lottery modes are available.]

[1. Unreliable Level Draw: Requires 10 points.]

[2. Abnormal Level Draw: Requires 50 points.]

[3. Big Bang Level Draw: Requires 100 points.]

"Choose Unreliable Level!"

After so much experimentation.

Chen Yang realized.

The Unreliable Level.

Had a low winning rate, but correspondingly, the cost was also low.

The prizes drawn were varied and all-encompassing.

It carried greater uncertainty.

And often brought surprises!

[Ding!]

[Draw complete!]

[Congratulations! You have obtained the Calligraphy and Painting Skill, Entry Level: Marvelous Brushwork!]

[10 points deducted. Current remaining points: 340.]

In the depths of his consciousness.

A mysterious surge of knowledge was imprinted in Chen Yang's mind.

Countless basic techniques of calligraphy and painting.

Fused into his body.

Chen Yang was stunned for a moment!

"Holy crap!"

"This time, it was quite effective, winning on the first try!"

"Too bad."

"I am a War General; is it really appropriate for you to give me a civilian skill?"

"Marvelous Brushwork?"

"Does this mean my signature will be relatively handsome from now on?"

Chen Yang truly couldn't figure it out.

Besides signing his name.

What other use could a calligraphy and painting skill have for him?

Especially at this moment.

With a major battle imminent, it felt particularly ironic.

Book learning is useless!

Alas!

"Continue the draw!"

"Still Unreliable Level."

[Ding!]

[Draw complete!]

[Congratulations! You have obtained 1 bottle of Speed Essence Liquid!]

[10 points deducted. Current remaining points: 330.]

"Oh?"

Chen Yang's heart stirred.

Judging by the name, this time, it seemed like a good item.

An exquisite small green bottle.

Appeared out of thin air.

Chen Yang reached out his hand and easily caught it.

Lilac, who was beside him.

Was currently furrowing her brows in thought.

She was wondering what special arrangements Chen Yang had made along the way.

"Ah!"

She suddenly noticed.

A small bottle had appeared out of thin air.

She rubbed her eyes.

Lilac asked in surprise:

"Little Brother Yang, where did the bottle in your hand come from?"

"I saw it, it looked like it..."

Chen Yang laughed heartily.

"Are you too nervous?"

"I just took it out of my pocket and tossed it into the air."

"You just happened to see it as it was falling."

Lilac shook her head.

"That's not right!"

"I clearly saw it..."

Chen Yang laughed again.

"You don't believe me?"

"Then I'll show you the trick again now, watch closely."

Lilac nodded.

Her beautiful eyes were wide open.

She didn't blink.

Chen Yang tossed the small green bottle up and down in his hand.

Making sure Lilac saw it clearly.

The next second.

The small green bottle vanished.

And then.

It suddenly appeared in mid-air.

Free falling.

Chen Yang reached out his hand and caught it again.

Perfectly recreating the scene from before.

"See?"

"Did it appear out of thin air?"

Lilac nodded, then shook her head.

"Yes!... No!"

"Oh dear! My mind is confused!"

She tapped her head, looking utterly bewildered.

Seeing the girl completely bewildered by him.

Almost turning into a silly girl!

Chen Yang secretly chuckled.

How could the Master Level "Empty Hand Skill" be undeserving of its reputation?

It had already reached the realm of being traceless and invisible.

Even if an anti-pickpocketing expert came.

They wouldn't find any flaws.

Ignoring Lilac's self-doubt.

Chen Yang carefully examined the small green bottle in his hand.

The bottle was similar in size to an oral solution vial.

Inside, a dark green liquid flowed.

Should he drink it in one gulp?
