Chuanzhu Street was formerly called Chuanzhugou and was a market where bamboo weavings were made. Because of the terrain, the two sides are high and the middle is low, like a ravine, hence the name.
Later, when Feng Mingyuan came to Yongchuan City, he began to demolish some old streets and houses, and then built or renovated them. At the same time, he felt that the word "ditch" did not sound good, so he changed it to "street". But the business on this street has never changed, and it still mainly exists as a market for bamboo weaving products.
But recently, the shops on both sides of Chuanzhu Street have been deserted. Not only are there not many people around, there are even very few people passing by on the street. Everyone was in a hurry, as if they were afraid of staying here longer.
Some shops simply did not open their doors and went out of business.
The shops that are still open will not close until the evening as usual, but will start to put up the door panels after noon.
"What are you afraid of?! Now this place is under the control of our Xicheng Knife Studio! You just go about your business as usual. What are you afraid of?"
"I said, don't you understand people? Don't close the door!"
Whenever the store clerk is about to close early, there will always be a few streetwalkers and hipsters coming to stop him. But even if they are afraid of these vicious people, the shops will still close quietly and early.
Doing business?
Who would think about doing business when their life is not guaranteed to be stable?
Now is not the time to hate and fear these knife shops. The shops on Chuanzhu Street hope that the people from the knife shop will finish it as soon as possible. They really don't care who owns this place in the future.
But now you and I are fighting endlessly. Yesterday, people from the Dongcheng Knife Shop came to tell me not to close early, but today it was people from the Xicheng Knife Shop who came. Sometimes the two sides would often encounter each other, and then they would draw their knives and kill them.
If the killing continues, how can the merchants on this street make a living?
Among the twenty or so shops on the street, who hasn’t had blood spilled at their door? How many people have died these days? It's getting scary.
I didn't wait for the shops to reply in a panic. Just as the sun was turning to the west, several people with short swords on their waists came from the east.
"No! People from Dongcheng Knife Shop are here too! Hurry, close the door!"
The merchants were not stupid. Seeing that the people from the knife shops on both sides met again, they knew that today would not be a good one, and it would be a bloody killing again. So I quickly put up the door panel, closed the door tightly, and looked out through the crack in the door. Wait for the two sides on the street to decide the winner.
"What a bastard, Zhang Mazi! You dared to come after I let you run away last time!?"
"This is our Xicheng Swordsman's Hall now. Liu Zangdan, if you dare to run around, aren't you afraid of being hacked to death?"
You can't lose momentum in a scolding battle. Everyone pulled out their knives from a distance. Even the street wanderers fell behind and pulled out the daggers in their arms. No one ran away.
When they got closer, both sides didn't hesitate at all, and immediately started to attack each other.
But today there were more people on the Dongcheng Knife Hall side. After some killing, he only injured three people on his side, but he knocked two people from the Xicheng Knife Hall opposite to the ground. One's stomach was cut open and his intestines were flowing all over the floor, and his screams were getting weaker and weaker. Another had his neck slashed and fell to the ground twitching. After a while, both of them fell silent.
"Don't run away if you have the guts!"
Generally, you should avoid its edge at such times. Because I took advantage here, I don’t need to worry about harsh words. Do you really want to wait and not run? Not stupid.
Or play dumb.
So in the cracks in the doors of the shops on both sides, a pair of eyes were surprised to find that the people from the Dongcheng Knife Hall had won the chop but did not leave. Instead, several more waist knives came from the east, and even two red knives! It's just hidden in a corner of the street, blocked by buildings, and can't be seen unless you get closer.
What is this for? Going to have a big fight? !
In surprise and suspicion, the people on the street who had suffered losses before from the Xicheng Knife Shop returned, and this time more people came. Unfortunately, according to the eyes of some people in the shops on both sides looking through the gaps in the door panels, they were afraid that the people of the Xicheng Knife Shop would suffer.
This was the second round of killing. The corpses on the ground and the cold blood made everyone's eyes turn red. After meeting each other, they were no longer interested in even swearing. Only by waving knives can they express their desire for the other's death. Euphoria.
It's just a pity that this time the people from Dongcheng Knife Hall were obviously prepared and won again. At the cost of several injuries, three people from the Xicheng Knife Hall were hacked to death on the spot again. The remaining people from the Xicheng Knife Hall fought and retreated, and were finally squeezed out of Chuanzhu Street.
"From today on! Every one of the bastards in the Xicheng Knife Shop will die!"
The loud shout was like a taunt for the second defeat of Xicheng Swordsmanship Hall.
At this point, the people watching the excitement in the shops on both sides of the street finally calmed down along with the bloody blood. Five people died. This was already quite a battle. Today's scene should end here. It seems that the people at Dongcheng Knife Hall are more powerful?
But just as the people in the shop began to calm down, more people suddenly appeared on the street. And they are all from the knife shop. These people are probably close to a hundred! Someone in the lead recognized that it was Yang Xiu, the "Black Ax" from Dongcheng Knife Hall!
And in places where the view was restricted by the cracks in the door, the waist knives from the Dongcheng Knife Shop were carrying big cloth bags and climbed up to the roofs on both sides and hid them. Other waist knives took out strange ropes more than two feet long and hid them in difficult-to-see positions.
It only took half a stick of incense before and after, and I went to the Xicheng Knife Shop for the second time and came back again. This time there were also many people coming, but not as many as the people who were ambush at the Dongcheng Knife Hall.
The leader was tall, with messy short hair, a livid complexion, and an evil aura about him.
"Yang Xiu! It's really you who is causing trouble!"
"Li Guang, are you here to die?"
When the red knives on both sides meet, they naturally have to shout a few words. But what happens next will not change at all. Winning or losing must still be determined by killing, not by anyone's words.
kill!
But just when Li Guang was leading his men to prepare for a long-lost battle with the opponent, seeing that they were about to collide with each other less than ten feet away, he suddenly felt an indescribable discomfort in his heart, just like the one before him It's very dangerous, and I subconsciously want to stop or even turn around and leave.
"This is?"
Before Li Guang could think about it, suddenly a large piece of gray-white dust fell from the sky, like a blizzard falling. In less than three breaths, it had already captivated all the eyes in front and around him.
"No! It's a gray powder! Go back! Go back!"
The ash powder should not be touched by water. If it falls into the eyes and meets tears, it will generate high fever and damage the eyes. It's an extremely sinister thing. Unexpectedly, someone was hit, and screams rang out.
And almost at the same time as the ash powder was sprinkled, rapid sounds of breaking through the air came. It roared like a huge force.
Dang! With his eyes closed, Li Guang waved his sword to block the sound of a sky-piercing bullet coming towards him. The touch made him instantly understand what it was that was flying towards him.
"Be careful of the Locust Stone!"
