Chapter 8 Parkour

The power cable was only one centimeter thick, but for Lu Feng, it was already sufficient. He could even gain leverage on water, let alone a power cable with greater bearing capacity.

Without hesitation, he took action!

Lu Feng darted towards the power cable as swiftly as a leopard. He channeled his inner qi to make his body lighter. Without pausing, he stepped on the power cable with his toes and quickly flew across.

In order to reduce the impact force at each landing point, Lu Feng shortened the width of each step. Originally, he could cover a distance of four to five meters in one step in the air, but now he changed it to two meters. However, he increased the frequency of his steps significantly.

As bad luck would have it, just when Lu Feng was in the middle between the two buildings, a sudden gust of wind blew, causing the power cable to sway violently, making it extremely difficult to find a stable landing point.

Seeing this, sweat immediately broke out on Lu Feng's forehead. If he missed stepping on the power cable, there would be only one outcome for him: death!

Calm down! He must stay calm at this moment!

Although the distance was only twenty-five meters now, under normal circumstances, it would be enough for him to leap across with a powerful jump. But that was when he could gain a strong boost from the last step on flat ground to take off.

Now he was in the air. He estimated that by stepping on and breaking the power cable to gain momentum for takeoff, he could fly at most fifteen meters. That is to say, he would be safe if he could cover another ten meters.

However, these ten meters, which he could normally cross in just two steps, had now become the most perilous section!

Lu Feng focused intently on the power cable beneath his feet. His mind followed the movement of the wind, constantly calculating the swinging trajectory of the power cable, striving to find the most stable landing point in his uninterrupted steps.

At this moment, Lu Feng was already in mid-air, and his foot was about to reach the position level with the power cable. However, the power cable was still ten centimeters away from his foot.

This is it!

A glint flashed in Lu Feng's eyes. He had already accurately grasped the trajectory of the power cable. He immediately channeled his qi, lifted his foot, and forcefully changed the direction of his foot, stepping firmly on the power cable.

With a light tap of his toes, Lu Feng took a step forward, spanning a distance of four to five meters. At this time, taking a step of two or three meters would be courting death!

With the experience of the first step, Lu Feng was much more agile and at ease when taking the second step, and he found the landing point steadily again.

After taking three consecutive steps, Lu Feng was still more than ten meters away from the building in front.

At the position of the last landing point, Lu Feng changed his landing method. He changed from using his toes to step on the power cable to using the entire sole of his foot. He stepped down heavily with his whole foot. Taking advantage of the powerful reaction force, Lu Feng leaped towards the building in front like an eagle descending from a mountain peak.

When his foot touched the opposite building, Lu Feng let out a slight sigh of relief. At the same time, he locked onto Wang Yumeng's red sports car in an instant.

Fortunately, Wang Yumeng was driving in a "Z" shape. The buildings on the upper and lower parallel rows were all side by side, with a distance of more than ten meters between them, and the distance between the two parallel rows was fifty meters. Fortunately, there was only this one fifty-meter section; otherwise, Lu Feng really wouldn't have known what to do.

The moment Lu Feng locked his eyes on Wang Yumeng's car, he started moving again without even having time to catch his breath.

His inner qi was being consumed greatly now. Although the reaction force on the building was strong, which reduced the consumption of his inner qi, the consumption was relatively large when he walked on the air between the buildings. However, he felt that he could still hold on for a while. If he couldn't catch up with Wang Yumeng during this time, all his efforts today would be in vain.

After running across five buildings in a row, Lu Feng was directly above Wang Yumeng's car, and he was running forward parallel to the car.

At this time, the abandoned buildings had reached the low-rise building area. Although there was no gap between the two buildings, the vertical height was thirteen meters!

Without hesitation, Lu Feng jumped down, stepping on the air.

A height of thirteen meters could maim a person even if it didn't kill them. Lu Feng had never tried to figure out what his safe vertical height was, but he thought that thirteen meters was nothing!

When he landed on the rooftop below, Lu Feng had already run a horizontal distance of twenty-five meters. The moment he landed, he immediately adjusted his body. After his toes touched the ground, he quickly used his inner qi to strengthen the bones in his feet, and at the same time, he channeled his qi to make his body lighter.

Even so, Lu Feng still felt a pang of pain when his heel touched the ground. However, he couldn't care about it anymore and channeled his qi again to continue the chase.

And this descent had once again increased the distance between him and Wang Yumeng.

From the rooftop of the twelfth floor to the rooftop of the eighth floor, and then to the fifth floor and the third floor, Lu Feng kept descending. With his accelerated running, the distance between him and Wang Yumeng's red sports car was getting smaller and smaller.

When Wang Yumeng's sports car turned a corner and entered another road, Lu Feng also entered a bungalow area.

Lu Feng looked at the direction in which the red sports car was moving and immediately felt anxious. Because there were no more obstacles ahead on that road, and there were no intersections either. It was a completely straight road. Once Wang Yumeng entered the truly straight road and successfully accelerated, his attempt to catch up with her would be a complete failure!

No!

He had to find a way to catch up!

Out of the corner of his eye, Lu Feng caught sight of the low and uneven buildings beside him, and an idea immediately flashed in his mind.

This was equivalent to a right triangle. Wang Yumeng was taking the two sides of the right angle, while he only needed to take the diagonal line. This was the only way. If he couldn't catch up this time, all his efforts and running around would be for nothing!

Without hesitation, Lu Feng turned around and dashed directly along this virtual diagonal line.

In the bungalow area, Lu Feng finally experienced the pleasure of being in his element. All the small buildings were of the same height, and running on them was almost the same as running on the ground.

Before he knew it, Lu Feng had chased all the way to the suburbs. If someone knew that he had measured most of Jiyang City with his feet, they would surely go crazy.

Although there were no people living in the abandoned buildings, there were people living in the bungalows. In order to avoid causing panic, Lu Feng had been carefully paying attention to his surroundings all the time. He didn't relax slightly until he jumped down from the bungalow and entered a small jungle.

After running forward for a while, Lu Feng rushed out of the jungle directly and stood in the middle of the road. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

If he remembered correctly, Wang Yumeng hadn't reached this place yet, so...

He had won!

At this moment, Lu Feng completely relaxed his body and immediately felt a wave of fatigue. Only then did he realize how much of his inner qi had been consumed. If he hadn't made some progress yesterday, with the amount of inner qi he had before saving people yesterday, he definitely wouldn't have been able to hold on until now.

Doing stupid things every day. When will you, Lu Feng, do something smart?

Lu Feng severely despised himself in his heart. Just at this moment, Wang Yumeng's red sports car appeared in his sight.

Lu Feng quickly waved his hand to signal. It would be really not worth it if he was run over and killed while trying to return something to them.

"Is the person in front... Lu Feng?"

The old man in the car looked at the person waving in the distance and asked. Before he could finish his question, he felt something was wrong. How could Lu Feng have arrived here in such a short time!

Lu Feng?

Wang Yumeng quickly focused her eyes and saw that the person waving in front did indeed look like Lu Feng whom they had just met today. Her expression was also filled with shock.

How could he be here?!

It was more than ten li from the clinic to here, and she had just arrived here in her sports car. How could Lu Feng have arrived here earlier than her!

"He's waving at us. Stop the car and take a look."

The old man said.

When the car stopped beside Lu Feng and the two people in the car saw Lu Feng's familiar sunny smile on his face, they were completely stunned. How could this be possible?!

Could it be that they had encountered a ghost?

But could one encounter a ghost in broad daylight?

With a look of doubt and shock in his eyes, the old man opened the car door and got out. Looking at Lu Feng in disbelief, he asked, "Lu Feng?"

"Yes, Grandpa, it's me."

Lu Feng said with a gasp, grinning widely, and his smile became even brighter.

Although he had done something stupid, he felt very happy. The experience just now was really exciting!

Upon hearing that it was really Lu Feng, the old man's expression was filled with even more incredulity. He quickly asked, "How did you get here? Did you come here specifically to find us?"

At this time, Wang Yumeng also got out of the car. She looked at Lu Feng with a surprised expression, constantly guessing in her heart how Lu Feng had arrived here.

Could he also have a sports car?

Wang Yumeng looked around Lu Feng, and this idea was immediately dispelled. There was not a single car around.

The idea of him taking a taxi didn't even cross her mind at all because there was no short cut here, and she hadn't seen any car overtaking on the road. Most importantly, a taxi could never be faster than her sports car!

So how on earth did he get here?

Could it be...

Wang Yumeng thought of a possibility and quickly asked, "Do you know parkour?"

Parkour?

Lu Feng shook his head.

He knew what parkour meant as Wang Yumeng described it, which was to regard the entire city as a large training ground, where all walls and rooftops became objects that could be climbed and traversed, especially the extreme street running sport in abandoned buildings.

Before he had achieved some proficiency in "Wu Xiang Sheng", he had been very interested in parkour and had even signed up to join a parkour group. However, he was laughed at by the people in the group for his uncoordinated body, which was as stiff as a piece of wood. He couldn't stand the ridicule of those people and left the group after only one day.

Parkour could be said to be a sore spot in his heart because he had never been looked down upon like that before!

As soon as Wang Yumeng said it, she immediately denied her own idea. Even if there was a stretch of ruins behind, it was absolutely impossible to catch up with her sports car using parkour. It was impossible both in terms of speed and physical strength. And Lu Feng's denial also proved her speculation.

"I came here to return the keys to you. Are these yours?"

Lu Feng took out a set of keys from his pocket.

Seeing the keys in Lu Feng's hand, Wang Yumeng quickly rummaged through her bag. After searching for a long time, she still couldn't find her keys and finally gave up dejectedly.

Seeing this, Lu Feng knew that the keys in his hand must have been dropped by Wang Yumeng, so he handed them to her.

Wang Yumeng took the keys and said thank you softly. Then her beautiful eyes stared intently at Lu Feng. Looking at him in disbelief, she asked, "You caught up with us just to return a set of keys?"

"Yes."

Lu Feng scratched his head awkwardly and said, "Actually, I forgot to bring my phone and couldn't call you. I was afraid that you might need the keys urgently, so I brought them to you."
