Chapter 46: Escaping the Tiger's Mouth

  The pawnshop in the game is not a national chain, so things pawned in Taiyuan can only be redeemed back in Taiyuan. Taiyuan, for Feng Xiao Xiao, is already a lair of dragons and tigers, but for "Ruo Xu"...

  "Pshaw, what's with 'Ruo Xu', it sounds really awkward!" Feng Xiao Xiao spat on the ground and cursed quietly.

  After packing up, they had been leveling up fiercely for the past few days and their use of medicine was also extremely fierce. Although they had picked up some small change during the leveling process, it was clear that their expenses far exceeded their income. Using the last bit of money they had left to replenish their medicine, they took a deep breath and chose to head to Taiyuan at the station.

  The man appeared at the edge of Taiyuan Station, but there were no voices ringing in his ears like "It's him!", "Catch him!" or "Kill him!". On the contrary, the city of Taiyuan remained calm and peaceful, without a single ripple due to the arrival of Feng Xiao-xiao.

  Walking carefully on the street, one step at a time, as if treading on thin ice, maintaining a highly concentrated spirit, and keeping the posture of a sprinter's starting position, thus becoming the most unusual behavior on the streets of Taiyuan City.

  They arrived at the pawnshop without incident and asked the owner for the treasure sword.

  The pawnshop in the game has surprisingly good credit, not only will it not take advantage of you by lowering prices, but it will also offer many different prices for you to choose from, with the lowest price being so low that it's almost negligible. Feng Xiao Xiao fully recognized this point and chose the lowest price initially, which is why she didn't encounter the embarrassing situation of not having enough money to pawn something.

  Smoothly retrieved the treasure sword, this heavy enough feeling is just different, the sword in hand is like a part of the body.

  As he turned to leave, a strange feeling suddenly rose in his heart. The wind felt a strong human presence, which referred to the degree of attention an object received from people. For example, if a website had a high click-through rate, they would say it was popular. Now, the wind felt a strong human presence, what's going on? He looked around and found that he was still alone in the pawnshop, so where did this presence come from?

  The wind swirled, and without losing his courtesy, he smiled and nodded to the pawnshop owner as he bid farewell. Then, with his unique gait, he approached the door of the pawnshop, gently pushed open the door that he had just casually closed, and stuck his head out to take a look.

  The pawnshop's gate was a step higher than the street outside, so when Windy looked out, all she saw was a sea of heads stretching far and wide, a vast expanse of blackness. If there were flashing lights on top of those heads, it would be just like a live concert by some big-name pop star.

  The wind was blowing fiercely, and he was startled by this scene. He felt as if someone had pushed him from behind, pushing himself out the door. Then, he heard the sound of the door closing with a "bang", and the voice of the pawnshop owner came from inside: "Don't say you know me!"

  "Damn it, I didn't know you in the first place!" Feng Xiao Xiao cursed under her breath. But Boss's prayer had already made it clear that these people outside were looking for him.

  As expected, the crowd outside saw Feng Xiao Xiao appear in front of them and immediately erupted into a thunderous roar that lasted for a long time. Some people even held up banners with the words "Vow to kill Feng Xiao Xiao to avenge the master" written on it, followed by "Wishing Longmen Inn prosperity".

  The wind is whispering, wondering how they knew his name, only to hear the crowd singing in unison: There's a B Nour, he's got some arrogance, he's also very domineering; there's a B Nour, his behavior is ***, he's just like a hooligan; oh......, oh......, oh...... The wind is this B Nour.

  Then a shout came from the crowd: "Cut him off and hang him at level 0!"

  The wind was howling ominously, and with so many people, it would be easy to get crushed to death in the crowd. The current situation didn't allow him to think twice, nor did the sea of people in front of him permit him to push through. With a sudden burst of energy, he leapt upwards towards the rooftop.

  Just got up, suddenly felt the darkness in front of my eyes, looked up and saw a large piece of black cloth being spread out and thrown down, the wind was already completely under its shadow, and at this time the crowd had also begun to rush towards its original landing point, ready to chop the falling wind into pieces.

  The wind was howling as he gritted his teeth, drew out the Ruoxue sword stuck in his back, let out a loud roar, and slashed at the fabric that was pouring down from above like a sky-covering, earth-shrouding avalanche.

  The cloth did not split in two with a "zip" sound as imagined, but instead the sword was wrapped up by the cloth with a "thud", and fortunately it didn't stop the trend of the wind whistling through the house.

  In an instant, the rooftop was already in front of him. Feng Xiao Xiao looked up at the rooftop, searching for a suitable place to land, but this glance made Feng Xiao Xiao spit out a mouthful of blood. The rooftop was also densely packed with people standing in a crowd.

  The wind was blowing fiercely, and in the midst of urgency, a clever idea emerged. Hastily, he tore off the black cloth wrapped around his sword, shook it out, and without worrying whether it was fully unfurled or not, he forcefully flung it towards the group of people on the rooftop. At this moment, Feng Xiao Xiao's "Welcoming the Wind and Waiting for the Moon" had also reached its limit, and the person fell along with the black cloth.

  Galileo's famous Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment tells us that the time it takes for an object to fall from the air to the ground has nothing to do with its mass, and the game also follows this principle well. After covering several people who couldn't dodge in time, the wind swept by and accurately trampled on these few people.

  The wind whistled as it wrapped around a round, slippery object, with one foot pressing down on it. The round, slippery object let out a cry, and the wind whistled in sync with the cry's rhythm, exerting force from the soles of its feet, displaying lightness like an arrow leaving a bowstring, flying away from the crowd, landing on the rooftop across the way.

  The crowd at the Dragon Gate Inn did not expect that this would make the wind disperse, and they let out a loud shout, jumping towards the rooftop of the house across from them.

  Unfortunately, most people's qinggong was not enough to cover the distance between two rooftops, and they jumped down to the street below like dumplings in a pot. Some had slightly better qinggong skills, but still couldn't quite make it to the opposite rooftop, and ended up sticking to the wall instead. The worst off were those who had spent years practicing their qinggong, only to be blown away by the wind just as they were about to land on the rooftop. Some of them were so weak that they died on the spot. The bloody lesson made everyone else who was eager to try flying over the rooftops give up on the idea.

  It's a pity that such a big waste of Zhang was blown away by the wind, and it really makes people feel resentful. A few quick-witted ones shouted: "Use hidden weapons to fly him!"

  The crowd came to their senses, and the gang members who practiced hidden weapons took out their own specialties and threw them at Feng Xiao Xiao.

  Hidden weapons! The winds are complicated with emotions, and their own level is almost all practiced with this stuff, but they also eat a few big losses on this thing.

  A colorful array of hidden weapons flew towards him, and Feng Xiao Xiao realized that now was not the time to indulge in nostalgia. First and foremost, he had to dodge this wave of attacks.

  At such a distance, the crowd's martial arts skills were clearly distinguished. The hidden weapons flew with varying speeds and weights, but even the strongest ones had weakened by the time they reached Wind Soughsao across the wide streets. With ample time to spare, Wind Soughsao dodged the first batch of relatively powerful hidden weapons that arrived, while others that were obviously mixed with amateurish elements had already begun their downward trajectory as projectiles by the time they reached him.

  The wind was blowing gently, and she took a few steps back, so many hidden weapons couldn't even touch the hem of her clothes. Adding to that, the distance was so far, and the accuracy had decreased, the flying hidden weapons seemed to have nothing to do with Feng Xiao Xiao anymore.

  Parabolic falling hidden weapons are even more numerous, and the wind whisks away a hidden weapon that is about to hit the ground. However, I hear a "ding" sound, and the system prompts: You have learned the 4th move of "Wind Dominates the World".

  The wind was blowing gently, and I felt a thrill in my heart. Good, it's finally appeared. Let me take out my martial arts skills to see.

  Fourth move, Capture the Wind and Shadow, a completely defensive move that captures the opponent's attack tool, quantity 1, success rate depends on the hand speed and hit rate, consumes 150 internal energy.

  The wind was blowing, and in his heart, he thought that this trip to Taiyuan was truly not a waste. Not only did he retrieve the "Ruo Xu" sword, but he also mastered the fourth move of "Wind Travels the World". This was all thanks to the people at Longmen Inn!

  The wind whistled as he thought to himself, facing the vast expanse and shouting loudly: "Thank you all, I'm off now, we'll meet again someday!" With that, he turned around, took a few leaps, and vanished.
