It was hot, very hot.

The sun at noon in September is very vicious. When the sun shines on people, it’s like they are covered with Sichuan chili powder, which not only makes people sweat profusely, but also has a burning pain.There is no wind, and the particles floating in the air are dust that is difficult to breathe, mixed with the disturbing sound of horns from cars and the noise of pedestrians...

This is Chengdu, Sichuan. Because it is located in a basin and the ground is very humid, it becomes a natural steamer in summer. In addition, there are so many vehicles in Chengdu. The huge amount of vehicle exhaust not only has a heating effect, but also causes strong air pollution. pollute.This kind of weather may not be a big deal to the locals who are used to it, but it is an indescribable torture to foreign tourists.

The train station is crowded and noisy.

At this season, at least half of them are students from all over the world. They dragged their bags and swarmed out in the sweat and dust of the station, and then tried to get away from this hellish place as quickly as possible.

Xie Lang was "rushed" out by the crowd.For the first time, he looked at the box he was dragging in his hand. Fortunately, his "treasure box" was safe and sound.Don't get me wrong, it's not a high-end cipher suitcase, it's just a very ordinary, old wooden box with a very old style, and it is estimated that it can only be seen in the antique market now.

"The provincial capital is a provincial capital after all. The people at the train station alone are comparable to country people going to the market!" Xie Lang sighed secretly, and then straightened the collar of his shirt with his hands. The shirt was his only shiny shirt. Seeing it crumpled from sweat and the crowd, Xie Lang felt a little pity in his heart.

"Hey, why does the sweat still smell a little?"

A faint fragrance mixed with sweat entered Xie Lang's nose.

Of course, the stinky sweat will not become fragrant for nothing. Xie Lang sniffed it carefully, only to find that the fragrance came from behind.Turning his head to look, he saw two women following him, and the scent emanated from one of them.That woman was about 22 or [-] years old, dressed in a very trendy fashion, like a movie star on TV, and she also wore a sparkling necklace and bracelet, which was very dazzling.Poor Xie Lang, he grew up in a mountainous area, so of course he wouldn't recognize that woman was wearing a Versace suit, carrying a GUCCI bag in her hand, and the jewelry on her body was also expensive.

As for the other woman, well, it should be a girl.About a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, petite and cute, she is only about 1.6 meters tall, wearing a knee-length light blue skirt, simple and generous, without makeup but radiant, especially her white and flawless face Inlaid with a pair of bright eyes and big eyes, the eyes are shining like stars, like a girl with big eyes in comics, very cute.

"It's the two of them who were trying to squeeze me at the back just now. No wonder there is a scent in the sweat of the clothes..." Xie Lang thought to himself, and suddenly felt that the crowding at the exit of the train station was actually a kind of otherness. What a treat.

These two women are not only attractive in appearance, but also fashionable and unique in clothes, unlike those women in the mountain, who are wrapped tightly and airtight, so Xie Lang couldn't help but look at these two more, completely confused I don't feel like I'm standing in their way.

"Why do you stop here for no reason? Don't you know that you are blocking our way?" The fashionable woman said to Xie Lang, meeting Xie Lang's eyes, she suddenly puffed her chest out, "Why? , have you never seen a beautiful woman?"

This woman not only has a beautiful face, but also has very plump breasts. The two round things almost broke her clothes. Her hot action undoubtedly frightened Xie Lang. Xie Lang blushed, turned around and said: " I'm sorry, I'm leaving now."

"Amitabha!" Xie Lang said silently several times in his heart. If a girl in the mountain dared to dress like this, she would definitely be called a vixen, let alone make such a bold and provocative move.

"Cousin, why are you so fierce?"

Xie Lang heard someone whispering behind him, although the voice was soft, but very refreshing, it sounded like he had just drunk a cold spring in his ears.

"Clover, let me tell you, when you are outside, you have to be fierce. You will be afraid of others if you are fierce, do you understand? People are kind and bullied, especially girls, you have to be more fierce and spicy, so that no one will be afraid of you. Dare to bully you." The woman preached to her cousin.

"Why are you so fierce, I don't want to be a policeman..."

Xie Lang walked in front of them, and could hear the two sisters clearly, but he couldn't agree with that "fierce" woman's argument. At least he thought it was better for women to be gentle and cute, just like that Stylish bitch girl next to woman.

"Oh, my GUCCI bag... a thief who has suffered thousands of knives, stand up for my aunt!"

Suddenly there was a scream and roar from behind Xie Lang, the decibels of the sound could be compared to the roar of wild animals in the mountains.

There was a commotion in the crowd in front, and a wretched man in a white T-shirt quickly slid through the crowd like a loach.

Xie Lang was about to yell for help, "Catch the thief", when his body staggered suddenly, and a snow-white, pink hand pushed him aside, and then he saw the fashionable woman from before rushing out quickly.

"Crack!~"

With a clear sound, the woman didn't take a few steps, and the pair of beautiful high-heeled shoes on her feet were killed.

"Damn it!~" The woman uttered a foul word, bent down very neatly, picked up the broken shoe, and threw it at the wretched man without thinking.

I don't know if it was luck or the woman's skill in throwing the shoe. The shoe crossed a distance of at least 20 meters and hit the wretched man on the head without any mistakes.

"Ouch!~"

The wretched man let out a cry of pain, but he didn't stop his fleeing footsteps.

At this time, although the fashionable woman had already chased her out, she was obviously powerless.The thief was obviously a habitual thief, and he was already at home in committing crimes in this area. Not only would the crowd not become his obstacle, but it could act as a barrier for his protection.

At this moment, a hat-like thing suddenly flew out of the crowd, circled rapidly, and then firmly covered the wretched man's head like a goshawk fluttering a bird.

"Ah! Ah!~"

The wretched man fell to the ground suddenly, and then let out a series of screams like killing a pig.

The fashionable woman had already given up, but when she saw the sudden change in the situation, she rushed up, slamming at that wretched man.

Xie Lang dragged his box and quickly followed.

Not to join in the fun, but he released that hat-like thing, so naturally it has to be recycled at this time.

The wretched man was already surrounded by the crowd, and it seemed that there was no hope of escape, but he had already given up escaping, because the cage-like thing covering his head tightly strangled his throat.It's not that the wretched man has struggled before, but when he pulled the birdcage above his head with his hands, he didn't know what mechanism was installed in the cage, and a pair of wooden figures the size of fists popped out. With great vigor, he slapped the wretched man on the head violently, causing the wretched man to have a bruised nose, swollen face, and weeping bitterly.When not struggling, the pair of wooden figures "hid" in the cage again.

By the time Xie Lang pushed the crowd away, the fashionable woman had stopped abusing the thief and put on the shoes with broken heels.One of her shoes is currently stepping on the chest of the wretched man.

Seeing that Xie Lang kept approaching the thief lying on the ground, the fashionable woman said vigilantly: "Is there any need to get so close to watch the excitement? You are not with him, are you?"

"I take back my blood drop... Oh, no, I just take back my birdcage." Xie Lang raised the green string in Yang's hand. One end of the rope was in his hand, and the other end was on the birdcage.

"Blood drop...why does this name sound familiar?" The fashionable woman muttered, seeing the rope in Xie Lang's hand, she immediately understood that this birdcage-like thing was released by Xie Lang to help her catch the thief.

In fact, not only have many people never seen the blood drop, but they have never even heard of it. The reason why this woman thinks the blood drop is familiar is because she usually likes to read martial arts novels and has seen this kind of thing in the book. There is a kind of thing, but she doesn't know that there is such a thing in the world.

The so-called blood drop, the ancient book in Xie Lang’s family described the usefulness of this thing in this way: “Within a hundred steps, taking a person’s head is like searching for a bag. It was a murderous weapon used by imperial spies during the Yongzheng period. This thing was originally a craftsman in Jiange of Xishu It was cast and used to deal with the scourge of zombies in the past. When this object flew out, it would wrap around the neck of the zombie, and with a click, the zombie would be decapitated, and even the most powerful flying zombies could not escape the pursuit of blood drops."

You can't even hide from flying zombies, let alone people?

As for the birdcage in Xie Lang's hand, it is not as scary as the blood droplet in the legend, because there were originally two extremely sharp flying knives on the edge of the blood droplet, which were used to take people's heads, and Xie Lang However, Lang replaced it with a pair of mechanical wooden figures. The pair of wooden figures could not take the head of a person, at most they could only punch a set of Arhat fists on the face of the person, turning the person into a pig's head.Xie Lang made this thing just to use it to catch birds and beasts. He thought the name Xuedizi sounded better than bird cages and animal cages, so he continued the name.

"Cousin...are you okay?"

Only then did the little girl catch up panting, and then looked curiously at Xie Lang who was about to take back the birdcage.

Xie Lang is about 1.1 meters seventy-five, with a well-proportioned figure. He wears a homemade shirt, gray trousers, and black cloth shoes. He is carrying an old wooden box in his hand, exuding a mountain air.

The little girl felt that this man's family must be very poor, and with his unkempt curly hair and dark skin, she was even more sure that he was from the mountains.What surprised her was that although Xie Lang's eyes were not big, they were very bright, and seemed to be very confident, without the trembling feeling of a countryman entering the city.In addition, Xie Lang has a pair of very special hands, which can even be described as beautiful: very slender fingers, some like the fingers of a pianist, the skin on the hands is very fair, like white jade, and there is no calluses visible.

Would rednecks be free of calluses in their palms?The little girl had some doubts about Xie Lang's identity.

"Bitch, let our elder brother go!"

Two little thieves with daggers approached the fashionable girl.

The crowd couldn't help but retreat a little, obviously the dagger still has some deterrent effect on the unarmed crowd.

The wretched man lying on the ground regained some toughness at this time, and shouted loudly at the two little thieves: "You two idiots are only dying now, you have to wait until the police arrive...ah!"

There were a few more screams. When the wretched man was struggling, he was hit on the nose and eyes a few more times, and he was also kicked in the chest.

The two little thieves swung their daggers and rushed towards the fashionable woman and Xie Lang. It didn't look like they were killing people, but they made Xie Lang and the vicious woman retreat.

"Bang! Crack!~"
