202: Chapter 180: Ah, Wu Dalang 202: Chapter 180: Ah, Wu Dalang The people around were all cheering. Inside the enclosure, the male African lion appeared, and like something out of Animal World, it had a plentiful mane and looked imposing. “Wow, brother-in-law, brother-in-law, isn’t it cool?” Lin Xiaoxiao excitedly shouted. “Cool.” Li Chen responded half-heartedly, while thinking to himself that, in fact, lion meat was quite delicious and wondered what this lion in front of him would taste like. During his time in the Middle East, Li Chen had eaten it several times. The most memorable occasion was eating it roasted in the wild, and another time when several princes had invited him to dine, the taste was unforgettable. As Li Chen reminisced about his foodie life, the tourists around him began taking out their phones to start taking pictures. The African lion seemed restless, having never seen such a large crowd. It paced around on the pebbles and occasionally looked up at those frantically taking photos, its irritation clearly growing in its eyes. The African lion opened its mouth wide, emitting a “grrrumble” sound. If it had been a normal day, that would have been a sign of anger, signaling the start of a chase. But this time, it was helpless. Suddenly, the African lion opened its mouth wide, revealing its ferocious maw, and let out a roar. “ROAR!!!” A thunderous roar erupted suddenly, startling the group of tourists outside the enclosure with its slaughter-intent-filled sound. The African lion, seeing the strange creatures in front of it immobilized by fear, seemed satisfied with its action, ready to stride forward with pride. But the strange creatures ahead burst into cheers. “Wow, the male lion is roaring!” “I saw it, haha, it’s awesome, so cool!” “I got a picture, I’ll post it on social media.” ... Suddenly, the tourists were all hyped up, which confused the African lion. What was going on? Why weren’t these creatures afraid of it? Li Chen watched in boredom as the crowd got excited. How boring. “I’m going to step out for a sec,” Li Chen told Lin Xiaoxiao, then he left to use the restroom. Lin Xiaoxiao hardly noticed; her attention was entirely captivated by the African lion. The African lion, seeing the creatures behind the opposite railing so audacious, could not stand it anymore. It slightly crouched then leaped forward, frightening the tourists, but they soon realized that the lion could only reach them through the railing, and they calmed down. “Quick, take a picture!” “The African male lion, really something else!” A group of excited tourists, while the African lion, realizing it could not hurt those creatures, leaped back into the enclosure. “Do it again.” A tourist aimed his phone at the lion, shouting loudly. The African lion looked at these strange creatures; it was a bit confused about the situation. At this moment, an employee came over, carrying a bucket full of raw meat and live chickens. He threw the raw meat into the enclosure, and the two live chickens as well, which flapped their wings as they fell, but the lion didn’t move. Instead, it watched the tourists then turned and walked into a small grove. “Why isn’t the lion eating?” The tourists were puzzled, but then, one of them exclaimed in surprise, “Look, the lion has fainted.” “Fainted?” Everyone turned to look into the grove and saw that the African lion indeed lay there motionless, as if it had suddenly passed out. The keeper noticed something was wrong too. Seeing the African lion had fainted and wasn’t moving, he opened the gate intending to check. He didn’t approach too close and used a stick to touch the lion, realizing it didn’t move. He approached slowly, but just as he got halfway, the African lion suddenly stood up. That was bad! The keeper was shocked at that moment, and the African lion, with power in its limbs, started running fiercely, leaping through the air directly towards the keeper! “Ah!” The onlooking tourists all shouted in alarm as the keeper was knocked over, but the African lion did not bite; instead, it turned to the visitors outside the barrier and charged toward the gate! It was then that the tourists realized that the gate was not closed, and they started shouting in panic. Lin Xiaoxiao was also a bit stunned; how could this be happening all of a sudden? As the African lion charged out, it roared at the tourists, frightening everyone. They ran off to the sides. “The lion has escaped, the lion has escaped!” The tourists were terrified. Lin Xiaoxiao also came to her senses and prepared to run, but just then, the African lion turned and fixed its gaze on Lin Xiaoxiao. Looking at the lion, which was as big as a person, Lin Xiaoxiao felt her legs go weak as she saw the intent in its eyes. Her breathing became rapid, and Lin Xiaoxiao felt her throat drying up. “Brother-in-law!” Lin Xiaoxiao didn’t dare move, but she shouted out for Li Chen, although Li Chen was nowhere to be seen. Surrounding tourists, seeing the lion slowly walking towards Lin Xiaoxiao, couldn’t help but worry, yet they dared not approach, for it would mean facing a certain demise—a double devouring, no less. The zoo’s management was aware of the situation and quickly dispatched people, but the incident was so sudden that help was still on the way, placing Lin Xiaoxiao in complete danger now. “Brother-in-law!” Lin Xiaoxiao’s words were filled with a crying tone as she looked at the massive lion, feeling helpless, but just then, a faint voice came from behind her, “Stop shouting, I’m right behind you.” Shocked, Lin Xiaoxiao turned around only to see Li Chen walking towards her leisurely, positioning himself protectively in front of her. “Really, how did you run out here?” Li Chen muttered, but then, looking at the African lion, he instead walked toward it. The tourists around were incredulous at Li Chen’s actions. This man is insane! Yes, to deliver himself to a lion’s jaws—was he tired of living? The African lion, upon seeing Li Chen, slightly moved its mouth and a “grrr” sound came, ready to pounce. Li Chen remained nonchalant, lazily beckoning with a hook of his finger; the watching tourists gasped in horror—fuck, this man must be crazy. Apparently, barriers are meant to keep out animals, but they’re also needed for people like him. Provoked by Li Chen’s taunt, the African lion couldn’t hold back any longer. It leaped towards Li Chen with its mouth open and its sharp claws splayed, intent on killing this unknown creature and then savagely ripping it apart! “Ah!” The surrounding female tourists couldn’t bear to watch and screamed out; the scene was too cruel. However, the surrounding male tourists let out a gasp of astonishment! What had they just seen? It was unbelievable! As the lion pounced, the young man threw a punch that landed hard on the lion’s forehead, a punch so powerful it sent the lion flying backward. “Pop” The lion, with its hefty body, crashed to the ground, but it recovered in an instant and began to circle around Li Chen. The tourists around were in a shocked state—is this still human? “Wu Dalang, oh!” A tourist couldn’t help but blurt out. “Dumb, that’s clearly Wu Song,” another person retorted. “Wu Song fought a tiger, this man is fighting a lion,” a third person added. All were staring at Li Chen, dumbfounded. In ancient times, if someone could fight a tiger or a lion with their hands, it was believable, but in modern times, taking on wild beasts without any equipment usually meant seeking death. Yet, here was this man, defeating a lion with a single punch. If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it. The African lion was also somewhat doubtful, but the pride of the king of the savannah wouldn’t allow it to back down, so it charged at Li Chen once more. Li Chen still unhurriedly threw a punch, but this time, the punch directly grounded the lion beneath him. After pinning the lion down, Li Chen positioned himself atop the lion, one hand clasping the lion while the other delivered punch after punch to its head. With the first punch, the lion let out an irritated roar. With the second punch, the lion issued a resigned noise, seemingly frightened. With the third punch, the lion was retreating, as if one more punch would certainly end its life on the spot. At this time, the zoo’s staff had also arrived, all armed with tranquilizer guns, ready to sedate the lion. But upon arriving at the scene, they were bewildered—why was it the man on top of the lion and not the other way around? The staff looked at each other, but seeing Li Chen was still vigorously beating the lion, they quickly raised their tranquilizer guns and said, “Sir, please stop, or we’ll have to accuse you of murdering a rare animal and sedate you too.” “It was the lion that ran out first, okay!” “Yes, what’s more important, people or the lion?” The crowd of tourists started making a noise. Li Chen stood up, shrugged, and said, “I’ve already sedated the lion for you. Just throw it back in the cage, and it’ll recover in a couple of days.” The group still exchanged puzzled looks, then cautiously approached the lion, finding it lying on the ground, motionless. Mom, I want to go back to the savannah! Tears filled the lion’s eyes. The king of beasts being beaten like a cat—it’s too much for any lion. And as they watched Li Chen’s retreating figure, some of the tourists who caught on snapped pictures—this man was too cool! Li Chen walked over to Lin Xiaoxiao, who was squatting on the ground. “What’s wrong?” Li Chen asked perplexed. Why squat on the ground? It would look bad if seen by some busybodies—so uncultured. “Brother-in-law, my legs are weak,” Lin Xiaoxiao replied. Li Chen was speechless, but okay, it seemed Lin Xiaoxiao was truly scared. It made sense, Lin Xiaoxiao had never experienced such an ordeal, so being frightened was only natural.
