Half a month later, Cheng Yaojin, You Junda, and Shan Xiongxin set off together for Licheng County in Jinan Prefecture, Shandong, to celebrate Qin Qiong's mother's birthday.
After more than ten days, they reached the outskirts of Licheng County. Passing through a stretch of woodland, they ran into Luo Cheng, who had also come for the birthday celebration.
Luo Cheng stared at Cheng Yaojin for a long while. Seeing this, Cheng Yaojin said, "Pretty boy, what's wrong with you? What are you staring at me for?"
"Ugly bastard, so what if I look?" Luo Cheng said. "You're ugly, and you won't even let people look at you?"
"What the hell? Is there something wrong with you, brat? Did I offend you, or are you just itching for a beating?" Cheng Yaojin said.
"Hmph, you don't look like a decent man. You must be a mounted bandit, and you're surely in league with that short fellow who stole my things earlier. If you know what's good for you, give them back, or I'll poke a few holes in you with my silver spear," Luo Cheng snorted.
"Damn it, you really are itching for a beating! Fine, I'll teach you a proper lesson on behalf of your elders," Cheng Yaojin said.
"Come on, then! Let's see what you're made of!" With that, Luo Cheng took the Five-Hook Divine Flying Silver Spear from his horse, flicked its shaft, and watched Cheng Yaojin, waiting for him to draw a weapon.
Seeing this, Cheng Yaojin said, "Don't say I'm bullying you. I'll fight you with spear techniques today. Let's see just how good you are, pretty boy."
Then he turned to Shan Xiongxin. "Second Brother Shan, lend me your Golden-Ding Zaoyang Spear."
"Brother Cheng, just teach him a lesson. Don't go too far," Shan Xiongxin
