Chapter 30 Chapter 30 (Part 2) The trouble of leaving the market...
The eyes of the people around were all fixed on the kitchen knife that was slapped on the bed. Those who were originally crowding forward, not wanting to be left behind, subconsciously stopped where they were.
Ah... they just want to sell a few things, so there's no need for the girl to use lethal weapons like kitchen knives, right?
“I understand, I understand…”
A smart person saw the impatience between Chang Ruijia's eyebrows and hurriedly said while smiling apologetically.
In fact, they had no intention of rushing into the crowd. After all, the swallowing thing was no joke. What if they were involved?
But when I see others around me unable to help but move forward, I always have a herd mentality. What if they squeeze forward and get the chance, while I don’t move and miss it?
However, seeing the two little girls becoming increasingly impatient, the interest they had originally felt in being attracted by the crowd disappeared completely.
Their own lives are the most important thing, and they don't want to hit their heads with a kitchen knife.
However, some people were smart enough to push away, but some people looked at Chang Ruijia's pretentious kitchen knife in her hand, secretly curled their lips, and still squeezed in front of her as they pleased.
Even if the little girl had a kitchen knife in her hand, so what? She didn't look very old. Was she weaned? How could she dare to scare people with a kitchen knife?
Those people who were retreating now were a bunch of cowards! Even if they went forward and failed to exchange, so what? Maybe they could take this opportunity to secretly steal some of the things in her pockets.
They did not forget that the little girl had just taken out the two snow-white buns from her back pocket, and there might be other better things inside.
And, if you're lucky...
Looking at the comfortable big bed under Chang Ruijia, some people's little thoughts began to run wild again.
However, when they were thinking about Pianpian, I wonder if they ever considered how those things that made them drool were obtained by this little girl who was "not yet weaned".
There is never a shortage of people in the world who have simple brains but have extremely beautiful dreams.
Looking at the extreme greed of these people in front of her, Chang Ruijia almost laughed out of anger.
She thought that anyone who could enter this market should at least have some brains. Seeing her ostentatiously drawing a bed that was obviously not of normal proportions, and also taking out steamed buns at will, even if she used her feet to think, she should know that she was definitely not a good person.
But she didn't expect that she was narrow-minded. Saying that they thought with their feet was an insult to those people who still had some brains. These people would not even eat their brains even if the monsters in the sea were to eat them.
"You don't understand what I'm saying, right?" Looking at the crowd still pushing forward, Chang Ruijia sneered, and took out a kitchen knife from behind and slapped it in front of them.
"Do you understand this time?" A kitchen knife was stacked on top.
"What about this time?" Another kitchen knife was placed in front of Chang Ruijia.
"What now?"
Seven neatly arranged kitchen knives were placed in front of Chang Ruijia. She looked as if she could summon some magical thing by gathering all seven kitchen knives together.
Every time Chang Ruijia took out an unexpected kitchen knife, the atmosphere of the crowd who had been trying to push forward without giving up would become a little more frozen, until even the scorching sun in the sky could not withstand the coldness from the inside out.
There are really seven kitchen knives neatly placed in front of you!
Looking at the blade emitting a cold glow in the sunlight, the person who had previously mustered great courage in the crowd felt like a deflated balloon, and his whole body withered.
"I understand, I understand!" A faint voice suddenly sounded from the crowd. Almost at the same time when they saw the steps, the crowd, which was originally aggressive, instantly scattered.
Any idea of taking advantage of the situation disappeared at this moment. This gleaming kitchen knife was more effective than any threat.
"Wouldn't it be great if you could understand what people say earlier?" Chang Ruijia muttered softly, and she didn't let him leave until she put all the kitchen knives in front of her.
How damaging this is to the harmony among us!
However, this time, when walking towards the group of people who were setting up stalls to trade, Chang Ruijia had no intention of putting away the seven kitchen knives in front of her.
What if after she put it away, someone thought it was inconvenient for her to take it out in time and attacked her unexpectedly? It was better to leave it outside to have some deterrent effect.
She finally figured it out. Some people are just mean-spirited. If easy talk and negotiation doesn't work, they'll have to resort to some special means.
"As expected of someone who has left the crowd so swiftly and decisively several times, I really admire his means of deterrence!" Lu Baian, who had not been involved, spoke again.
Chang Ruijia silently rolled her eyes at Lu Baian behind her and ignored him.
He said this as if he had not quickly broken free from the crowd before. She remembered that every time she was about to leave, the figure of "Young Lady" appeared nearby.
Who of those who escaped from that crowd before didn't have some special skills? He said it as if he was so clean.
However, regardless of whether their hands were truly clean or not, when Chang Ruijia and Lu Baian walked among the crowd again, the people around them who were waiting for a deal looked at them with much more fear.
"How do you trade this board?" Looking at the board hanging on the wardrobe where a man was sitting, Chang Ruijia asked the uncle with a slight smile.
"No, no need..." The uncle looked at Chang Ruijia tremblingly, holding out the board with trembling hands, "If you like it, I'll give it to you directly."
"No," Chang Ruijia didn't expect the uncle to react like this. She waved her hands quickly, and the smile on her face became even gentler. "A normal exchange is still necessary. What do you want to exchange? Buns? Or something else?"
Seeing Chang Ruijia's hand reaching into the pocket behind her again, although he didn't get close before, the uncle's eyes became more and more terrified as he watched her take out seven kitchen knives.
"No, really no, please, I beg you, I have an 80-year-old mother and a child who just learned to walk. Please spare my life, I still want to survive on the sea."
Seeing the uncle almost crying in front of her, Chang Ruijia, who originally wanted to conduct the transaction normally, suddenly felt a little overwhelmed.
She was really annoyed by that group of people, so she laid out all the kitchen knives without any reservation. Unexpectedly, she did achieve the deterrent effect, but it seemed that she used a little too much force.
"Okay, okay, okay," seeing that an honest and decent uncle was actually scared like this, Chang Ruijia quickly withdrew her hand and said, "You should keep your board. I won't change it. Don't worry."
Chang Ruijia, who hadn't gone shopping for a long time, was suddenly relieved by this sudden incident.
She felt that she might just be incompatible with this market, so she might as well leave quickly. If she continued to shop there, she would definitely cause more panic than she would gain.
Seeing that other people were also looking at her cautiously, Chang Ruijia was speechless for a moment, and finally prepared to turn around and directly leave the crowd.
Lu Baian, who had been following behind Chang Ruijia, saw that she looked devastated and once again rang in her ear, "This market is open for more than just one day. How about I change my clothes tomorrow and come over to buy what you want?"
After being separated from the crowd for a distance, Chang Ruijia looked at Lu Baian who was still following her and shook her head, "No need. Maybe I really have no fate with this market."
She didn't originally want to exchange for many things. She asked the price of many of them because they looked useful. She wouldn't feel regretful if she didn't get anything. After all, she was already very lucky to get that string of bells.
But, "Mr. Lu, how long are you going to continue following me?" Seeing that Lu Baian didn't seem to have any intention of leaving, Chang Ruijia immediately ordered him to leave and said, "Since you have left the market, our consulting transaction should be over, right?"
"Of course, but there might be something near this market..."
Before Lu Baian finished speaking, a number of people standing on floating objects suddenly appeared in the direction the two men were heading, staring at them menacingly.
Lu Baian's expression froze, and he quickly caught up with Chang Ruijia's bed. "These people aren't the cowards in the market who have the will but not the courage to steal. They're used to killing and robbing people, and they've mastered the art of devouring others. They won't be easily scared off by a few kitchen knives. If there are more of them, they might be more intimidating."
Chang Ruijia really didn't expect that there would be someone standing in front of her that day. Looking at Lu Baian's back in front of her and the people who surrounded her cautiously, she couldn't help but squint her eyes.
If she hadn't been sure that these people were in the same group as the one who caused trouble last night, she would have really doubted Lu Baian's motives of "heroically saving the beauty" based on the timing of his appearance.
"It's okay, I ran into them once last night," Chang Ruijia's calm voice came, "Or maybe they came here directly to seek revenge."
Encounter? Seeking revenge?
Before Lu Baian could turn around and ask Chang Ruijia for details, the large group of people opposite were about to rush towards him with angry eyes. Obviously, the answer was just as Chang Ruijia expected.
"Hmph, now is not the night to be restrained. I wonder what tricks you can come up with to scheme against others!" The man in the lead glanced at Chang Ruijia and Lu Baian, then at the floating objects beneath them, his eyes full of greed.
Chang Ruijia said that it was only a few days, and even if they had become a gang, how could they have such a deep desire to avenge their members.
It turns out that because she is alone and weak, he plans to do something to satisfy his greed in the name of revenge!
"Brother, there is a kitchen knife on their bed," a man who probably followed them out from the market approached the man cautiously and reminded him.
"So what if we have a kitchen knife?!" Looking at the kitchen knife that looked like a dragon ball in front of Chang Ruijia, the leader's eyes narrowed suddenly, but he quickly said nonchalantly.
"How many kitchen knives does she have? How many of us are there? As long as we're fast enough, we can devour his floating objects as quickly as possible! That way, not only can we get those night vision goggles back, but even the kitchen knives will be ours!"
Chang Ruijia listened to the man's bold words, but her eyes paused on the floating object that was retreating without a trace.
Well, here's another person who's prepared to use someone else's name to pay for his own desires. There's nothing surprising about that.
Lu Baian, who was standing by, had originally thought that they might have some novel ideas, but unexpectedly they all came up with the same old, clichéd ones, and he couldn't help but sneer.
If this method worked for Chang Ruijia, she would not have been able to slip past all the people in the encirclement alone and escape unscathed.
He still remembers the rain of kitchen knives that came one after another, but he doesn't know how many rounds these people can withstand.
However, everyone has his own ideas. Although he once created the feat of raining kitchen knives all over the sky, Chang Ruijia couldn't help but sigh when she looked at the old, weak, sick and damaged kitchen knives in her hands, which had only a few uses left.
After this incident is over, we still have to find a way to replace these kitchen knives with a new batch. Otherwise, when facing the shameless threats from some people, we will always feel uneasy.
Looking at the ferocious crowd ready to rush over, Chang Ruijia clenched the kitchen knife in her hand, still raising all her vigilance, ready to get rid of these people at the lowest cost, preferably before the kitchen knife ran out of uses, otherwise she would fall into another embarrassing situation.
But just when the battle was about to break out, a familiar feeling of palpitations spread throughout Chang Ruijia's body.
Squinting her eyes and looking behind the ferocious crowd opposite, Chang Ruijia slightly raised her thin lips, as if she had found a more effective way to get rid of this group of people.
"Ah~" An unfamiliar chirping sound rang in everyone's ears.
The sound that suddenly appeared in everyone's ears couldn't help but make people feel a little creepy. Apart from the sudden appearance of humans, there are very few and unfamiliar movements in this world nowadays. How could such a sharp and terrifying sound suddenly appear?
Just when everyone was feeling a little overwhelmed and an inexplicable atmosphere of panic surrounded the crowd.
Chang Ruijia, who was standing opposite, suddenly stood up and shouted into the distance, "Xiao Yi! Over here!"
Is this noise related to the girl opposite?
For a moment, this thought floated in everyone's mind and lingered for a long time.
