Chapter 1: Get the Knife(1/2)
"Hey, Aunt Qin. Did you receive my express delivery in the store today?"
"Oh, okay, okay, I'll be right over...it's nothing, it's just a knife."
"The one I used to have was broken... Don't worry, I still have plenty of money. I won't talk about it anymore. The bus is coming. Hang up now. See you later."
Chen Jing looked very excited when he put away the phone. He had not touched a knife for three or four days and now his hands were itchy. Fortunately, the courier arrived today and he could practice as much as he wanted.
Go to the countryside to try the effect?
Just as he was thinking this, the sound of a roaring engine rang in his ears, and a bus with a heavy iron cover had stopped at the platform skillfully.
Chen Jing put her thoughts back for the time being and quickly followed the crowd, lining up in an orderly manner to get on the bus.
The scene in Nansu City in the early morning does not look much different from other cities in Xia Kingdom.
Vendors, workers, white-collar workers, OL girls, students, the elderly, etc. poured into the streets.
The whole city woke up from its silence and burst into life with an eye-popping energy.
There is just one thing that gives the city of Nansu a completely different cold color.
In the middle of an intersection a hundred meters away from him, several heavily armed policemen wearing thick black protective clothing and helmets were holding firearms and looking around with vigilance.
Chen Jing looked at the special gun barrels in the hands of the police with great interest, which were obviously different from ordinary firearms, and then withdrew his gaze.
He had long been accustomed to this kind of sight.
Not only him, but also other people on the street didn't care.
It was his turn to get in the car.
Chen Jing stretched out her hand and tightened the black bow bag on her shoulder, took out a coin from her pocket, tossed it casually, and then strode in without looking at the result.
The driver who had been staring here was about to say something when he saw this, but he saw the coin accurately dropped into the crack of the coin box along a perfect parabola, and he shut his mouth in time.
There were still some empty seats on the bus. Chen Jing casually found a seat by the window and sat down. He put the one-meter-high bow bag behind him on his chest, rubbed his elbows against the window, supported his head with his hands, and looked confused.
I looked out the window lazily, my eyes unfocused, and certain memories suddenly came to mind.
Chen Jing is not his real name, to be precise, it is his name in this life. In his previous life, he died young due to a car accident, and traveled to this world that has many similarities, but is completely different. It has been fifteen years.
years.
I have to say that he lived an extremely wonderful life in this life.
Because of the knife, because of the bow...
"Are there any other passengers getting off the bus? Get off the bus quickly."
The driver sitting in the closed driving seat habitually shouted twice. When no one answered, he closed the door and drove away again.
The noisy environment in the car did not affect Chen Jing's contemplation, but he had shifted from his memories of his life experience to the confusion he had about martial arts training yesterday.
As if he had some inspiration, he involuntarily made gestures with his fingers in front of his chest.
Just as the bus drove out a few dozen meters, suddenly!
Boom!
A huge explosion suddenly sounded.
Chen Jing's whole body trembled violently, and his originally distracted eyes suddenly became focused and sharp.
Before anyone could react, he stood up quickly to investigate the situation, opened the zipper of the bow bag on his chest, and held the exposed black long bow tightly with one hand.
With the naked eye, a thick plume of black smoke suddenly rose due east, adding a layer of haze to the originally clear sky.
Although it was blocked by buildings and could not see the specific location, I could still tell that the place where the accident occurred was still some distance away from me.
The crisis was temporarily lifted, and Chen Jing breathed a sigh of relief.
It was here that the other passengers in the car just reacted.
Panting, trembling, screaming, questioning and other sounds were heard, and it was extremely noisy.
The driver also subconsciously stepped on the brakes. The sudden stop also caused a moment of silence in the car, and then the noise became even louder.
Seeing this, Chen Jing shouted "Quiet" several times, and her powerful voice actually suppressed the screams of everyone in the car.
For a moment, everyone was so shocked that they closed their mouths involuntarily.
Then he quickly explained loudly: "Don't panic, the place where the accident happened is still a long way away from us. It won't affect this side, so just relax."
After hearing what Chen Jing said and noticing that nothing happened on their side, the people in the car quickly became quiet.
From fear to calmness, the time is very short, as if I have experienced a lot of things.
At this time, Chen Jing also noticed that the gun-wielding policemen on the side did not go to support them as if they were faced with a formidable enemy. They were still vigilant and comforted the calm pedestrians on the sidewalk.
Seemingly seeing something unusual in his car, a heavily armed policeman came over and waved his hand to the driver to drive quickly and not to obstruct traffic.
The driver made an OK gesture and quickly started the car without hesitation.
Passengers on the bus who were out of crisis quickly changed their status and started chatting in low voices with great interest.
Some people near the window even picked up their mobile phones and pointed in the direction of the black smoke and took videos.
"Good guy! It's really loud! Was it hit by a shell?"
"No matter how idiot the military is, they won't hit their own people. Who else can do it except those uncivilized bastards?"
"Barbarian or beast?"
"Barbarians. Only they can pretend to be here."
"No, the digging insect can also do it. Its size is enough to make such a big noise."
"Haha, would it come so far to seek death?"
"Who knows? The mind of a beast cannot understand"
…
Chen Jing, who had nothing else to do, also sat back in his seat. He was also very curious about the cause of the incident just now.
Although it is not clear what happened, what is certain from the sound of movement is that this is definitely not caused by ordinary characters.
At the same time, the discussion in the car was still going on lively.
"When is this the first time this year?"
"Who knows? The third one? The fourth one? These are just the ones that made a lot of noise and couldn't be covered up. I don't know how many others were covered up that didn't make a big noise!"
"Hey! The world is really getting more and more difficult. It would be great if it were still the same as it was fifteen years ago!" A grey-haired old man said with an afterthought in his eyes, full of pain.
The passengers in the car seemed to be brought back bad memories by the old man's words, and there was a moment of silence.
"You can't say that!"
After a while, an excited voice sounded from behind Chen Jing. The boy who looked to be in the second grade of middle school blushed, holding a mobile phone in one hand, dancing and saying excitedly:
"In my opinion, we must thank the great changes in the world fifteen years ago. It was because of him that it was possible to practice in our world! One against ten, one against one hundred, flying over walls and walls, chopping bullets with swords, controlling thunder...
...Hehe! The martial arts dreams in the past are no longer fictions or fantasies, they have become reality!"
"I will definitely become a warrior in the future!" After saying this, the second-year boy clenched his fists and encouraged himself with a look of longing.
The carriage fell into silence again.
"Martial artist..."
After a long time, I don't know who was the first to sigh. Others also sighed with emotion.
Young people are full of energy, while older people are full of regrets.
"A warrior!" Chen Jing sighed inwardly, and at the same time, his extraordinary vision captured a high-speed moving afterimage.
Wearing a military uniform and holding a long sword, he crossed the road and ran towards the black smoke before ordinary people could react.
"Military warrior, third level or above."
…
"We have arrived at Akaoka Station. Passengers who are getting off please go to the back door and get off in turn."
After Chen Jing rearranged her quiver, she stood up and got out of the car with her hands behind her.
"Eh? This guy looks so familiar! Where have I seen him before?" The middle school boy sitting in the back glanced at Chen Jing's profile and thought in confusion.
Just when I wanted to take a closer look, the other party had already got out of the car.
"Who on earth is it?"
Ding ding ding…
Accompanied by the clear and melodious sound of wind chimes as the store door opened, Chen Jing walked into a clothing store.
The waiter who was preparing to welcome the guests smiled when he saw him and asked: "Why is Xiao Chen here?"
Chen Jing smiled and greeted the young uniformed woman in front of her: "Hello, Sister Zhao. Come and get something. Is Aunt Qin in the store?"
Aunt Qin is a good friend of his parents. When he was very young, his parents passed away unexpectedly and she has been taking care of him.
Sister Zhao pointed behind her: "The store manager is in the office, you can just go there."
