The Magnificent Son-in-law

Chapter 360: Waiting for the Wind


In the twilight, dusk descended upon the earth, and the color of the sky quietly changed.

There was no moon, nor were there stars, giving an indescribable sense of oppression, as if a storm was about to break.

"Hehe, Brother Xiao Feng is really quite handsome, isn't he?"

At the entrance of the cave halfway up the mountain, the little girl was holding binoculars, watching Xiao Feng sleeping on a rock at the foot of the mountain, talking to herself.

"Hey, hey, hey, I say, can you stop being lovesick?" Zhao Guo'an couldn't help but say with a face full of black lines, "You've been watching for three hours without moving; don't you feel tired?"

The little girl had been watching for three hours, which also meant that the stalemate between Xiao Feng and Uesugi Yumi had lasted for over three hours.

"Who are you calling lovesick!" The little girl put down the binoculars, said irritably, "Brother Xiao Feng is just so good-looking, I could watch him for a lifetime and not get enough."

Zhao Guo'an was speechless for a moment, but he still asked, "Aren't you going to eat something?"

Currently, the corner outside the cave was already blocked by a huge rock, and Lin Zhiyan had specially arranged for a sentry just to guard against any ninjas sneaking up.

During the day it was alright, but now that it was night, extra caution was necessary.

"No need, Brother Xiao Feng hasn't eaten yet either." The little girl replied casually and continued to look at Xiao Feng through the binoculars.

But upon looking again, she found that at some point, Xiao Feng had already opened his eyes, with one hand resting behind his head, watching the sky grow darker.

The little girl put down the binoculars, cupped her hands around her mouth to shout, "Brother Xiao Feng, what are you doing?"

Xiao Feng smiled slightly, stood up, stretched his neck and limbs, and shouted back, "Waiting for the wind!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Guo'an's face twitched; this guy's level of posing was really getting higher and higher!

About five minutes later, the wind started to blow...

Xiao Feng grabbed a handful of soil and stretched out his hand, letting it float away through his loosened fingers, a hint of a smile appearing on his lips.

"Heaven really is helping me!"

Xiao Feng thought to himself in silence.

Not knowing whether it was really a fateful saying, last time he threw lime on the rooftop, the wind had aided him, and now the wind direction was again favorable for Xiao Feng.

"I've rested enough, it's time to move." Xiao Feng said calmly.

With these words, Uesugi Yumi and the others, hiding in the dark, all had a premonition of something ominous, as if something bad was about to happen.

In the next moment, Xiao Feng took out something like a blowgun, which was the tool Sun Shijie had given him last night to create a foul odor in the village. He had used it only partially and had intended to save it for a later need, but he hadn't expected to use it so soon.

"Enjoy it!"

After speaking, Xiao Feng blew a strong breath into the tube.

Iwakami Shigehiro and the others were inexplicably puzzled... Was that it?

Before this, everyone thought Xiao Feng was holding back to unleash a big move; it turned out to be posturing?

Uesugi Yumi watched Xiao Feng's actions, recalling last night's scene seen through the drone, and a look of realization appeared in her eyes, as if she understood what Xiao Feng was doing.

"Hold your breath!" Uesugi Yumi promptly ordered.

However, the order was ultimately a step too late, because at the same time she issued the command, the wind suddenly increased several times over, bending the crowns of even the slightly thinner trees nearby, showing the ferocity of the wind!

In an instant, some ninjas who didn't react quickly enough suddenly smelled a strong foul odor entering their noses, leaving them dazed and nauseous, wanting to vomit.

"Ugh..."

Finally, someone couldn't help but retch, but just that one sound already sealed their fate.

Fujiwara Keiaki, who had been lying in wait all afternoon, struck swiftly like an arrow, delivering a blow towards the source of the sound.

"Bang!"

After a dull thud, the ninja who made the sound had met his end.

"To be honest, I really look down on you ninjas." Xiao Feng was still standing on the rock, shaking his head and sighing, "I'm standing here like a sitting duck, and no one dares to attack me; how afraid of death are you?"

Xiao Feng's voice wasn't loud, but carried by the wind, each word clearly reached the ears of Iwakami Shigehiro and the others, instantly making many of them reveal a fierce light in their eyes.

Uesugi Yumi felt the same, but she wasn't an ordinary person. She soon realized that Xiao Feng was once again deliberately trying to provoke them into taking action, and as his opponents, they couldn't fall into his trap.

"Stay calm!" Uesugi Yumi said in a deep voice, "Don't look at him with your eyes."

Not using their eyes to look, the request sounded illogical, but Uesugi Yumi knew very well that true masters could sense the "killing intent" directed at them and could trace it back to its source.

Xiao Feng's deliberate provocations were nothing more than trying to induce them to harbor murderous intent towards him; looking at him with their eyes at such a moment was no different from revealing themselves.

"Lord Uesugi, but this smell..." a ninja said with difficulty, clearly expending a lot of effort with each word.

Uesugi Yumi replied calmly, "Huaxia has a saying, 'Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it,' meaning that everything has two sides; there is no absolute good or bad.

Xiao Feng can use the wind to spread the smell towards us, but the wind will also blow the smell he makes far away."

In fact, Uesugi Yumi was not someone who liked talking much, but her in-depth knowledge of Huaxia culture made her understand the importance of keeping the army's spirit steady. Not everyone was on her level, so she could only be patient, lower herself, and comfort others.

Sure enough, after a short while, the smell began to fade quickly, and it seemed it wouldn't be long before it dissipated completely. However, for the smell to persist for so long in such strong winds showed just how stubborn it was.

Xiao Feng was somewhat disappointed, raising the tube in his hand, shouting to the mountain, "Old Master Sun, is there more of this stuff?"

"No." Sun Shijie shook his head and replied; after all, who makes so many foul-smelling tools for no reason? One is enough.

Iwakami Shigehiro and the others suddenly breathed a sigh of relief; it's good that there's no more.

But before they could fully relax, they heard Xiao Feng shout again, "Anything else will do, preferably something poisonous, where just a whiff leads to death... Wait, never mind."

Suddenly remembering he still had the bottle of strong "Anti-Rape Spray" he made when he went to the scrapyard to rescue Zhao Guo'an, Xiao Feng thought, "This thing works wonders; if the moment comes, there's no hiding it."

Think about it, no matter how well you can hide, can you even hide what you just let loose?

Moreover, the strong anti-rape spray can make people unwittingly complete the diarrhea process, and by the time they realize what's happened, it's often too late.
