Chapter 435 Enlightenment

Inside the car, Lu Feng paused briefly, offering a measured word of advice, "The code workers' association is having an internal squabble. There's no need for us to be more active than they are, right?"

"Since you bet on Xu Hu, you have to help him. If he's not doing well, then your stake in him will be gone!" Li Xing frowned. "You recite Buddhist scriptures every day, don't you understand this basic principle?"

"Fine, you know more, then you go." Seeing the barb in Li Xing's words, Lu Feng didn't try to persuade him further. He hung up the phone and called out to the driver, "Stop the car, just wait here for a while."

"Huh? Not going?" the driver asked.

"Li Xing is more eager than Xu Hu's own son. Why would we go and steal his credit? Wouldn't that be annoying?" Lu Feng said lazily, "Smoking a cigarette, chatting for a bit, sounds pretty good."

Beside him, a burly man looked at Lu Feng's expression and suddenly said, "Feng-ge, I always feel… you've really changed recently. It feels like you're not interested in anything, you don't fight, you don't compete."

Lu Feng took a drag of his cigarette, "When I was fighting, I took on the Su, Bai, and Kong families alone. In the end, my brother went in, I lost money, and not only did I not receive a word of comfort, but I was also met with a lot of complaints, and Li Xing even called me useless… What's there for me to fight for?"

The burly man was silent.

"Besides, with the code gang's internal strife, you can choose to support Xu Hu, support him secretly, but you can't jump into the water yourself and do things with them, or even engage in hand-to-hand combat. From a Buddhist perspective, that's unwise, it's foolish." Lu Feng said mysteriously, the Zen meaning in his words quite profound.

Everyone was dumbfounded. The burly man asked in astonishment, "Can you even relate this to Buddhism?"

"Of course, everything can be explained with Buddhist thought, to glimpse the secrets of heaven!" The more Lu Feng spoke, the more mystical he became.

The burly man blinked, "Then explain this to me, please?"

Lu Feng took a deep breath of his cigarette, twirling his prayer beads, and said, "Buddhism speaks of karma. If you don't want to seek the fruit, then you must avoid the cause! Look, with Nick's matter, Gu Tongshan's matter, guns were fired in the city, and several people died. This is the initial cause! Going forward, the code gang is in chaos, Xu Hu wants to take over, causing a lot of disorder in Zha Nan, and now he wants to kill Wei Xiangzuo, these are all subsequent causes! And we were originally outsiders, but now we've been stirred up and completely involved in this matter! Our position has changed from onlookers to insiders, so you can't escape the consequences of everything in the future!"

The burly man looked blank, "Brother, I'm listening in a daze!"

"Your wisdom is shallow, very ignorant." Lu Feng explained speechlessly, "Who controls the Buddhist rules in the city?! It's the government! Recently, there have been frequent serious cases. The police department seems to be wary of the code gang's size and doesn't dare to suppress them too much, fearing it will cause a mass incident, but in reality, they are holding back their anger! You code workers' association, Chang Qing is relying on its size and social influence to make trouble to the death, whose face is it slapping?"

The burly man was stunned.

"There is a cause, there will be an effect." Lu Feng said lazily, "Regardless of whether Xu Hu succeeds or not, this effect will come sooner or later, understand? And we could have avoided the initial cause, but Lao Li was too impatient and had to jump in himself, so this effect will eventually fall on Chang Qing. Just watch, someone will pay the price for this."

Hearing these words, the burly man was completely convinced, "Big Brother is Big Brother! I almost converted listening to this explanation!"

"When people have faith, their hearts become pure."

"Big Brother is awesome, but please don't really become a monk! Brothers can't take it!"

"My wisdom is also shallow, my connection with the Buddha ends at the threshold." Lu Feng struck a particularly smooth pose.

Everyone was sweating profusely. There was no point in communicating with a master, their thinking wasn't on the same level, what was there to talk about?

…

Outside Dragon City.

The Su family's convoy was speeding along the highway, but because their vehicle models were not uniform and there were many people in the cars, their speed was not fast.

Behind them, Li Xing's police convoy had already caught up, and it looked like they would be blocked near the border.

In the car, a police officer looked at the Su family's convoy and said to Li Xing, "You should call Lu Feng and have him bring people up! I see that the Su family has a lot of people."

"They dare to resist arrest?! If they really resist arrest, that would be even better!" Li Xing replied with a gloomy face, and immediately urged, "Faster, fire a warning shot when we get closer!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the convoy sped up again.

…

On the road to the Sinalo Chi army base.

Yao Doudou and Su Tianyu personally treated the wounds of Wei Xiangzuo and his brother and gave him an emergency shot of antibiotics.

After everything was done, Su Tianyu was still worried about the situation in Dragon City and called Da Bai again to talk to him.

In the car, Wei Xiangzuo sat in the back seat and suddenly asked Yao Doudou, "Brother, where are you from?!"

Yao Doudou looked at him blankly, "Chinese!"

"…!" Hearing this answer, Wei Xiangzuo knew that the other party didn't want to communicate with him, so he didn't ask any further questions.

After a while, the car stopped on the side of the road, and everyone waited for the Chi army to come and pick them up.

Wei Xiangzuo touched Lao Gao's forehead, feeling a little anxious.

…

Dragon City, inside the police department.

Just as Wang Daolin was about to leave, he was suddenly called to the office by the deputy director.

"What's up, leader?!" Wang Daolin nodded and bowed to his superior.

The deputy director took out a document from his drawer and handed it to Wang Daolin, saying, "Take care of him!"

Wang Daolin opened the document and glanced at it, his expression a little strange, "What's the reason?!"

"Illegal gathering, suspected of participating in gang activities." The deputy director was too lazy to explain, he just said with a calm expression, "Find the rest of the reasons yourself, take care of him to death!"

"Hehe, the higher-ups are…!" Wang Daolin said halfway.

"Damn it, because of this damn port, the police units in all four districts of Dragon City are working overtime!" The deputy director leaned back in his chair and cursed, "Our boss went to a meeting today and was scolded by those people in the council!"

Wang Daolin nodded immediately, "Understood!"

"Go!" The deputy director waved his hand.

Wang Daolin left with the document.

…

On the road to Sinalo, Su Tianyu and the others waited for only a short while before they saw the Chi army's vehicle coming to pick them up.

Everyone got out of the car, ready to communicate with the other party, and at that moment, Wei Xiangzuo inadvertently noticed that one of the men following behind Yao Doudou was missing half of his left ear.

After seeing this scene, Wei Xiangzuo was completely stunned. A series of clues instantly connected in his mind!
