A carefree soldier king in the city

Chapter 38 Encountering an Evil Spirit

The man, clutching the cigarette butt Chao Bufan had just flicked away, suddenly broke down in his throat. He found it laughable and unbelievable that he had actually drawn blood from a cigarette butt; it was truly absurd and laughable.

But it is true, he was indeed hit by a cigarette butt and bled, which is not funny at all.

This man was clearly the leader of the gang. At that moment, he felt an indescribable frustration and anger, truly on the verge of tears. If word got out that he'd been hit on the forehead with a cigarette butt, leaving a gaping hole and bleeding profusely, wouldn't he be a laughingstock, utterly ridiculous? How could he ever face the underworld again?

His underlings couldn't help but laugh when they saw this, and each of them looked quite strange.

"I'm...I'm sorry, I'm sorry," Chao Bufan quickly apologized, saying with a "sincere" expression, "Big...Big Brother, I didn't mean to, I really didn't mean to, I didn't know you would be hiding there."

The man casually threw his cigarette butt on the ground, then spat and said viciously, "You dare to hit me, kid? You're asking for it! Get him!"

At the angry man's command, the others immediately drew their machetes and charged at Chao Bufan from both sides...

"Wait!"

Chao Bufan shouted urgently, immediately stopping the gangsters.

"Brother, don't you think this is ridiculous and laughable? I just threw away a cigarette butt, why are you making such a fuss?" Chao Bufan said righteously. "Besides, what can a cigarette butt do to you? Do you think your head is made of tofu? At worst, I'll hit you with a cigarette butt ten or even a hundred times, and see if it can make you bleed like you said."

Upon hearing this, the injured man immediately lost all confidence. After all, what he said made sense, but the fact remained that his forehead had indeed been hit by the cigarette butt that the man had flicked out, and it had even drawn blood. The cigarette butt was proof enough, and that was an undeniable fact.

"Fuck your grandma, you still think you're right?" the injured man cursed.

Chao Bufan shook his head and smiled, saying, "Brother, this isn't about whether to pay attention or not, but rather..." His voice turned cold, a glint of cold light flashed in his eyes, and he asked coldly, "Tell me, why have you been following me?"

"kindness?"

Everyone was startled. The injured man gave a cold laugh and said in a chilling voice, "So, you knew we were following you all along, and you deliberately threw a cigarette butt at me, right?"

Chao Bufan smiled faintly, then slowly took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, took a deep drag, and exhaled the smoke before saying something shocking: "So what if it is? I'm going to smash you, what are you going to do about it?"

"you!"

The injured man was instantly enraged, almost to the point of death. He gritted his teeth and roared, "Fine, fine, kid, you asked for this, so die..."

"Wait!" Chao Bufan shouted again, stopping the man from speaking.

"What? Scared?" the man asked coldly.

Chao Bufan smiled faintly and said, "Well, I'm afraid that you might hurt yourselves if you go too far when you make your move, so I want to remind you to take it easy when you attack."

"Hey kid, are you done farting?" the injured man asked impatiently.

“No…”

Chao Bufan suddenly stuck out his butt and let out a loud fart, then let out a long breath, looking as if a heavy burden had been lifted, and said: "All done, ah...that felt so damn good!"

"Damn it, even his farts stink like that. Go get him, chop him up!"

The injured man, covering his nose, gave an order, and the seven men immediately raised their knives and slashed at Chao Bufan.

Seeing this, Chao Bufan shook his head and smiled, completely unmoved, standing there without budging an inch as these thugs raised their knives to strike him. They...

Start...

The knife fell...

next second...

"what!"

"what!"

"what!"

……

Several gleaming machetes slashed down at Chao Bufan one after another, followed by a series of pig-like screams. However, the screams did not come from Chao Bufan, but from the gangsters.

Then, a comical scene unfolded—

"Ouch, my hand! You motherfucker, are you blind? You've chopped me!"

"Damn it, you still say he was the one who attacked me first."

"He was the one who slashed me first."

……

It turned out that when those gangsters swung their knives, they inexplicably and coincidentally slashed the left arm of their companion standing to their right, resulting in the astonishing scene of one slashing at another, and the other slashing at the other.

With a series of screams, the thugs dropped their machetes one by one, clutching their bloodied left arms with their right hands. Their faces were contorted in agony as they wailed and roared angrily at their attackers. Fortunately, their blows hadn't been very forceful; otherwise, one such blow would have likely destroyed their arms. Even so, the cuts were deep enough to expose bone, and blood flowed incessantly.

As for Chao Bufan, he was completely unharmed, standing there with a smile on his face, slowly smoking.

The gang leader was stunned when he saw his own men attacking one of their own. After a moment, he reacted, quickly shoving the man in front of him aside and yelling, "Bastards, what are you doing?"

"Brother, he chopped me."

"He also chopped me."

"He also chopped me."

……

The leader shouted sternly, "Shut the hell up, all of you!"

Upon hearing this, everyone endured the excruciating pain and dared not utter another word. The leader glanced at Chao Bufan, his brows suddenly furrowing, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. He thought to himself, "This is strange. I clearly saw their knives land on this kid, so how come they all missed? This is eerie. Does this kid know magic?"

However, the leader quickly dismissed this idea, after all, magic was just a deceptive trick. Then he thought of another possibility: could this kid know the "Great Shift of Heaven and Earth"? But he dismissed this idea again. The "Great Shift of Heaven and Earth" was something from fantasy novels and didn't exist in reality at all.

Could it be... a ghost? But the leader didn't believe in ghosts or gods at all. What ghosts could there be in this world?

In fact, Chao Bufan did use a little trick just now. Although it wasn't the "Great Shift of Heaven and Earth," it was very similar to it and was called "Shifting Technique." It had a similar effect to the "Great Shift of Heaven and Earth."
