Chapter 174

"The world of martial arts is really dangerous," said Wang Yao with a smile.

"Yes, it is dangerous, but not to the general public," said Zhou Xiong with a smile.

Wang Yao and Sang Guzi saw Zhou Wuyi together in the afternoon again. Zhou Wuyi's condition was basically stable, and he shouldn't have any new conditions anytime soon. However, his damaged and broken meridians needed to be addressed as soon as possible. Neither Wang Yao nor Sang Guzi could do anything about it.

"I can do nothing to repair his meridians at this stage," said Wang Yao to Zhou Xiong and his father.

Since he couldn't do more for Zhou Wuyi, there was no point for Wang Yao to continue staying at Cangzhou.

"I should go back to Lianshan," said Wang Yao.

"Okay, I will arrange for people to drive you back," said Zhou Xiong's father without hesitation. "But, I've arranged dinner; how about leaving after dinner?"

"Sure, thanks," said Wang Yao. He didn't decline the invitation this time.

...

"Uncle, how can you allow him to leave?" said Zhou Ying to Zhou Xiong's father after Wang Yao had left the living room.

"I understand you worry about your father. But it was us who invited him to come. He is our guest, and he has done his best to save your father. We shouldn't stop him if he wants to go back. You've heard him just now that he can do nothing more to help your father, and Dr. Sang will not leave for now," said Zhou Xiong's father.

"I'm sorry, Uncle," said Zhou Ying as he had calmed down.

"That's fine. Stay here with your dad, and leave everything else to me tonight," said Zhou Xiong's father.

"Okay," said Zhou Ying.

The dinner was not in a restaurant. Zhou Xiong's father made dinner at home. In some places, inviting people for dinner at home could be considered informal or even stingy. But in other places, it was considered a special treat, as the guest was treated as a family member or a very close friend.

It was a rich dinner with ample food. Considering that it was Wang Yao's first time visiting Cangzhou, Zhou Xiong's family prepared some famous local foods for him.

It was a pleasant get-together.

After dinner, Both Wang Yao and Dr. Sang were going to leave. They were going in the same direction, so they went in the same car.

The car didn't go very far before a strange sound was heard by the people inside. The car ran over something, causing it to lean to one side.

"What is going on?" asked Wang Yao.

"I think it is due to a flat tire. Let me go and check," said the driver who pulled over. As soon as he got out of the car, he was knocked out and fell to the ground without making a sound.

No! Zhou Xiong knew something was wrong.

"Everyone stay in the car!" shouted Zhou Xiong as he got out of the car.

His voice was especially loud in the quiet night. He did that deliberately to ask for assistance. They were still in Zhou Village, so there were still villagers nearby.

Ding! Wang Yao heard several short and loud sounds.

Zhou Xiong knelt down to the ground. He had two wounds already, and blood was gushing out of them.

Crash! A window of the car was broken.

"Dr. Sang, please stay out of this," said a hoarse voice.
