Chapter 0004: Young lady, your vehicle is truly unique
I do not know how much time has passed
Rows of towering skyscrapers rise abruptly, reaching into the clouds, while vibrant neon lights flicker all around. Pedestrians hurry by, and vehicles flow continuously, creating a scene of a prosperous modern metropolis
A sound of impact resounded.
Thank you very much, miss," Tang Bohu expressed his gratitude and reached out, intending to open the car door. However, he found, "Huh?" It wouldn't open! He pulled with all his might! Still, it wouldn't budge! This car door was as stubborn as an eighteen-year-old maiden, refusing to be opened.
Ah! Young lady, we have already entered the city, so you can drive a bit slower!" Tang Bohu said to the woman in red, then continued to gaze intently at the splendid lights on both sides. In the city, at night, the main melody is often composed of lights, and the vibrant and diverse array of lights is sufficient to showcase the city's colorful charm.
Upon thinking of this, Tang Bohu straightened his back, his face filled with pride. That unfortunate Tang Feng had not ridden in a sedan for eighteen years, while I, Tang Bohu, arrived and immediately rode in an extraordinary sedan. How impressive it is on the very first day. What else is to come? "Haha... good omen! Good omen!"
"Look behind you." The woman in red did not understand why Tang Bohu was so excited, but she did not slow down; instead, she slightly accelerated and charged forward.
Is this woman equivalent to a consort or noblewoman of the Ming Dynasty? Every time she goes out, she is always imposing and has an extravagant display. Tang Bohu couldn't help but murmur to himself. No wonder she refuses to take her time; this kind of spectacle is quite impressive! In his mind, Tang Bohu had already reached a conclusion.
Tang Bohu tightly pressed his heart, which was about to leap out of his throat, and exclaimed, "Phew! That was close! I almost had to meet the judge again!" Tang Bohu dared not descend to hell again, for a day in hell equates to a hundred years on earth. Having just spent a few days in hell, he found himself in this completely different world upon his return. If he were to descend again and walk for another two days, it was truly hard to imagine what he would become.
Seeing Tang Bohu leap onto the car without any hesitation, the woman in red's eyes flashed with a hint of curiosity. However, she had no intention of paying attention to his nonsensical chatter and abruptly stepped on the accelerator
The car suddenly swayed violently, awakening the drowsy Tang Bohu, though it was unclear what it had collided with
"Young lady, your heart is truly kind," Tang Bohu said. His heart softened slightly, overturning his initial impression of the woman before him.
The car drew closer and showed no signs of stopping, and in the blink of an eye, it was less than ten meters away from Tang Bohu
Ga ... ...
However, the abacus is indeed being played quite loudly. Through personal experience, Tang Bohu deeply realizes what modern people's self-protective awareness is, what the ugliness of human nature is, and what the trials of the world are!
The eyes slowly opened, a sliver of light filtered through the eyelids, and Tang Bohu suddenly sat up straight, "Is this the world five hundred years later?" (Note: From the time of Tang Bohu to the year 2011 is approximately five hundred years)
"Hurry up!" The woman did not even glance at Tang Bohu; instead, she was applying makeup in the rearview mirror, her brows slightly furrowing.
People in ancient times placed great importance on the study of feng shui, and Tang Bohu, being a person of the Ming Dynasty, was no exception
The furious shout of the woman in red indeed silenced Tang Bohu, who sat quietly and steadily. It seems that some people only understand when scolded! However, the woman in red soon realized she was mistaken! She could barely hold onto the steering wheel, for Tang Bohu was completely unresponsive. In her ear, she faintly heard him muttering to himself: "Only women and petty men are difficult to raise"
The surrounding landscape rapidly receded, and the woman directly ignored Tang Bohu's words
"Miss, your vehicle is truly unique! Getting in can also serve as a way to exercise!" It seems that Tang Bohu was quite pleased with himself for having found a way to get into the vehicle. "There’s no cover on top, so at night, you can still see the stars! How wonderful!" Tang Bohu's words flowed out as if he had opened a floodgate, "However, it wouldn’t be very convenient in rainy weather." Tang Bohu confidently analyzed the situation.
Little did they know, the affairs of the world are unpredictable! Just as the speeding car dashed out for about 100 meters, a loud "bang!" echoed, and then the car driven by the woman in red seemed to lose control, swaying left and right for a moment before skidding for over 100 meters and finally coming to a stop by the roadside
"Hey! Are you trying to get yourself killed?" Before Tang Bohu could regain his composure, a sharp rebuke in a delicate voice came through. It turned out that the owner of the carriage was actually a woman.
The woman in red noticed that Tang He and the scholar Tang Bohu were slow to board the carriage, so she turned her head to look at him, her eyes filled with confusion. Tang Bohu's face turned red as well; he hurriedly released his hand but suddenly his eyes lit up—he had an idea! He then leaped gracefully and landed neatly in the seat next to the woman. He picked up a strap that was in the way of his sitting down and chuckled.
Oh? In his indignation, Tang Bohu was confronted by a swirling red vortex, which was none other than a red sedan speeding towards him.
"How spectacular!" Aside from exclaiming this curse, Tang Bohu truly does not know how to express his feelings at this moment! At this time, Tang Bohu, to put it positively, is like a newborn baby with a pair of curious eyes; to put it negatively, he is nothing more than a genuine country bumpkin!
However, plans cannot keep up with changes. When a person is on the brink of death, there is always an unexpected joy awaiting them! Of course, this saying is attributed to Tang Bohu
Tang Bohu stood very straight, and there was not a trace of fear in his eyes. At first glance, it seemed so; however, at this moment, Tang Bohu's mind was racing, and he was also having second thoughts. "Is this a bit too extreme?" Tang Bohu muttered to himself, "Life and death are at stake; it would be better to withdraw for now. Moreover, it is not good to frighten others." In an instant, Tang Bohu made up his mind.
So smooth? Tang Bohu was taken aback for a moment, then secretly pleased, realizing that this move had no time restrictions! It seems that I, Tang Bohu, still possess my charm.
The red hair billows in the wind, framing a wonderful face with a heart-shaped visage, clad in a tight-fitting red outfit that accentuates an impressive figure! Enchanting! Paired with a red sports car, it evokes the sensation of a blazing flame, one that countless individuals willingly rush towards!
I took out their leader! The woman in red seemed to be speaking of it as if it were a trivial matter, making it feel as though taking out their leader was no more significant than killing a chicken, without any sense of abnormality.
"Miss, your car is really fast!" The two were in the same vehicle, yet not a word was exchanged. Tang Bohu found it quite strange, so he took the initiative to speak again, but to his surprise, the woman paid him no mind at all
Can you be quiet for two minutes? If you keep making noise, I will throw you off! The woman in red suddenly roared at Tang Bohu, clearly furious! In fact, one cannot entirely blame her; ever since Tang Bohu learned that he was being hunted, he has been constantly turning his head to look back, chattering incessantly like a gossiping old woman, pointing fingers. To others, it seemed like a blatant provocation! In fact, one cannot entirely blame her; ever since Tang Bohu learned that he was being hunted, he has been constantly turning his head to look back, chattering incessantly like a gossiping old woman, pointing fingers. To others, it seemed like a blatant provocation!
Oh? It's opened up again..." Tang Bohu's voice rang out once more, filled with excitement. Unconsciously, the earlier frustration in Tang Bohu's heart had vanished. Seeing that the car behind had been chasing for so long without catching up, and was instead gradually falling behind, Tang Bohu felt no more worry. "Miss, your cycling skills are truly impressive!" Tang Bohu exclaimed.
Setting aside his wild thoughts, Tang Bohu took a moment to observe the woman before him
During the Ming Dynasty, although there were night markets, compared to the current situation, Tang Bohu even secretly rejoiced, "Dying well! Dying well! Haha..." Sweat! Has anyone ever said they died well? Uh, there hasn't been an opportunity to say that either
Fasten your seatbelt! The voice of the woman in red rang out, neither hurried nor slow.
The car made another turn, narrowly avoiding an oncoming vehicle, and continued to speed ahead. However, the car behind still closely followed.
"Seatbelt?" Tang Bohu glanced around and finally focused his attention on the strap in his hand, "Is it you?" After confirming the identity of the seatbelt, Tang Feng had another question: how should this seatbelt be fastened?
This woman's temperament is undoubtedly fiery! With his keen eye for women honed through countless encounters, Tang Bohu instantly defined the woman before him as unique. Displaying a smile he considered very charming, he stepped forward and said, "Not at all, not at all. I do not wish to seek an end to my life; it is just that the day is getting late, and I need to enter the city. I hope the young lady can grant me a favor."
Call ... ... ''
Once again, a large vehicle sped towards the city, raising a cloud of dust that caused Tang Bohu, standing by the roadside, to cough incessantly. He had long lost any sense of novelty towards this iron box on four wheels. "Why are people in this era so hard-hearted?" Tang Bohu felt the outstretched hand growing numb, yet he still could not stop a single vehicle. Some cars that passed by him even seemed to accelerate as if they had seen a ghost. "Why are people in this era so hard-hearted?" Tang Bohu felt the outstretched hand growing numb, yet he still could not stop a single vehicle. Some cars that passed by him even seemed to accelerate as if they had seen a ghost.
I do not believe you will stop! Tang Bohu no longer wishes to eat dust; he steeled his heart and boldly dashed out into the middle of the road, extending his arms and staring directly at the oncoming car, presenting a truly reckless appearance
The woman in the red dress immediately felt her face flush intensely, while also suppressing the impulse to throw Tang Bohu out of the car. She then slammed on the accelerator and sped away, leaving a cloud of dust behind.
Cough... cough...
"Are we really going to walk back?" Tang Bohu was puzzled, but as far as he knew, it would take at least twenty minutes by car to return to the city from here. Walking? Tang Bohu did not want to waste that time and effort. "Damn it, wasn't the plan to send the injured to the hospital? How did they end up bringing Tang Feng's body to this desolate mountain?" Tang Feng's memories only lingered on the moment of the accident; he was completely unaware of what happened afterward.
After a while, the voice of Tang Bohu softly reached the ear of the woman in red, "Miss, is this already the fastest it can be..."
Wow! They've caught up! They've caught up!" Tang Bohu suddenly shouted, as the red-clad woman's vehicle accelerated once more, transforming into a fleeting shadow, clearly pushing its speed to the limit
With an air of literary elegance, it truly exudes a refined grace. Tang Bohu once captivated the entire female community of Jiangnan with this very charm!
Turning around at the sound, Tang Bohu exclaimed, "Wow! Are those... are those all your attendants?" In front of Tang Bohu stood several identical black cars, and even a truck, all filled with imposing men in black clothing, each exuding an air of confidence and authority
Better to avoid it if possible! Tang Bohu glanced at the blinding convoy behind him, then turned to look at the petite car he was in, suddenly feeling as if he were in a small boat adrift in the vast ocean, on the verge of capsizing
Tang Bohu, feeling self-deprecating, ceased to speak, though he was deeply affected internally! "I, Tang Bohu, once renowned as the killer of beauties in Jiangnan, possessing both literary and martial prowess, and with looks rivaling Pan An, have now fallen to such a state of being ignored!" In his frustration, Tang Bohu sighed, and soon felt a wave of drowsiness wash over him. As his eyelids grew heavy, his eyes slowly closed, and he began to drift into a light sleep.
However, how could a minor issue pose a challenge to the exceptionally talented Tang Bohu? Tang Bohu cast a sidelong glance at the woman beside him and promptly fastened his seatbelt in a manner that was both stylish and proper
Ah! Tang Bohu suddenly lost his balance and nearly fell, but thanks to his solid foundation, he quickly regained his composure. "Whew! This ride is truly dangerous"
He increasingly admired this iron box on four wheels, clearly devoid of life, yet capable of such astonishing speed! It was far superior to the mare of a thousand miles that Brother Zhu gifted me back in the day. This was his first time riding in a vehicle, and Tang Bohu was filled with emotion.
Tang Bohu was speechless as he glanced at the woman in red, who was indeed quite bold. However, did she really need to be so bold as to take down the leader? "Damn it, just as I arrived, I ran into this situation, an ominous sign! An ominous sign!" He had originally thought it was a good omen, but it suddenly turned into a disaster of bloodshed! Tang Bohu gritted his teeth, simultaneously harboring deep resentment towards those behind him, "Why did they choose today to pursue? Why not earlier or later? This is truly bizarre..."
Isn't this vehicle special, not relying on being pulled open? Tang Bohu couldn't help but feel puzzled. In Tang Feng's eighteen years of memory, there was actually no experience of pulling open the small car door. Tang Bohu knew to use his hand to pull, or it was from Tang Feng's memory of seeing others' actions on the street.
They are here to kill me! Before Tang Bohu could finish his reverie, the woman in red spoke, pulling him from paradise into the abyss, and Tang Bohu's laughter abruptly ceased
On the cemented ground, a crisp and prolonged screech of brakes echoed! The speed of the red sports car suddenly decreased, and finally, it came to a stop at a distance of just 0.001 centimeters from Tang Bohu.
"What? Kill... kill you?" Tang Bohu was momentarily stunned, his thoughts unable to return to clarity. He hurriedly turned back to look, and at once felt a wave of murderous intent rushing towards him. "Why would they want to kill you?" Tang Bohu also found it strange that so many people would simultaneously pursue a single woman
Even though Tang Feng had a vague understanding of the modern world from his memories, experiencing it firsthand left Tang Bohu deeply shocked by the atmosphere of modernization! The various fresh and novel things excited Tang Bohu, leaving him overwhelmed.
