Because we kept in touch on the phone, I saw the fat man who came to pick me up as soon as I got off the car.
At this time, it was almost dusk, and drizzle was floating in the dark sky, which cast a shadow on my mood and made me feel inexplicably heavy.
Looking up at the sky, despite the drizzle falling on my face, I couldn't help but feel worried. Fortunately, there was no red lightning in the sky.
It seems that the reality is not exactly the same as what I saw when I peeked into the sky. Otherwise, I can directly hold a funeral for Huzi and the others.
After getting in the car, I asked the fat man, "How are things going?"
"It's almost done. The only thing missing is the iron frame, which is still in the final stages of work. I paid three times the price, which means they have to finish it before dark, so it should be almost done!" said the fat man.
"By the way, how are you? Why do you look so listless?" The fat man looked at me and asked worriedly.
I have nothing to hide or say about the fat man. I have briefly talked about what happened before. As for the matter of the way of heaven, I cannot go into details, I can only briefly mention it.
However, Fatty was naturally smart and knew many things at once, so he had no intention of asking more questions and drove towards the city center.
"How about we go back to the shop first?" the fat man asked.
When I said this, the car had already reached the fork in the road, and if we walked a hundred or two hundred meters further, we could see our shop.
But at this moment, my heart suddenly jumped and a panic appeared in my heart.
"Fat man, stop!"
The fat man suddenly stopped and pulled over.
"Let's not go back and go directly to Kowloon City!"
This feeling of panic reminded me of one thing. When I was spying on Tiandao, the first thing I did after returning to Jiangcheng was to go to the store. Although I didn’t go in, if I went back now, I would undoubtedly have done the same thing again.
.
So I absolutely cannot do something similar, and I cannot repeat any situation where trajectories may overlap, otherwise I am worried that it will amplify the established facts seen in Tiandao.
Xiao Qin once said that there are too many red threads of fate in my body, and not even the law of heaven can completely control it.
Just this sentence gave me a little bit of confidence, and I secretly encouraged myself from time to time.
No matter what, I will try hard to change this trace.
In fact, Jiangcheng is not much smaller than Seoul, so the journey took nearly 20 minutes. By the time we arrived at Kowloon City, it was almost dark.
We parked the car on the opposite side of the road and looked through the window at Kowloon City after a long absence.
This is the place where our story begins, and it is also the place where my dream in the first paragraph was shattered. Here, I have left too many memories, and I can’t help but feel emotional at this moment.
Despite the wind and rain, the huge stone lion still stood in front of the gate of Kowloon City, still looking mighty and domineering in the dim light.
Compared with the last time, there didn't seem to be much change, and there was even a little less fierceness.
If Long Shuiyao had not sold Kowloon City, this lion might no longer be there, but would have been replaced by a copper bull.
At this time, the fat man couldn't help but started to complain.
"The two Zhao brothers don't have much ability. Isn't this lion exactly the same as before?"
But I shook my head gently, "It's different, this lion no longer has any fierceness!"
As I said that, I asked him to drive the car forward until he passed the front of the lion, and I discovered something unusual.
I pointed at the lion's back and said, "What do you think that is?"
"Huh!"
The fat man obviously also noticed that there was a square thing on the back of the stone lion.
"Take this guy with you, let's go over and take a look!"
As soon as he heard that he was about to get down to business, the fat man's face became unusually serious, and he made a sharp turn and arrived at the main entrance of Kowloon City.
I picked up the Ghost Slayer Sword and was about to get out of the car, but the fat man quickly stopped me.
Then he turned around and picked up a square password box from the back seat.
I looked at the fat man with some confusion, wondering what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd?
"I feel like things are a bit troublesome this time. Let's be careful. I made this thing for you to see."
The fat man chuckled and opened the lockbox directly in front of me.
When I saw the contents of the lockbox, I was slightly startled because there were actually several pieces of clothing inside.
It's just that this is not an ordinary piece of clothing, but a small vest. The style is extremely simple, as if it is two pieces of leather connected. One piece in the front and one in the back are simply connected with threads, but the wiring is extremely particular.
But the pattern on it looked extremely familiar, and I recognized it at a glance.
This turned out to be a small armor made of the skin of the big python.
"You made this into clothes?" I asked in surprise.
"Isn't that right? I made four pieces in total, and I also left a set for Little Mute and Brother Hu Zi. But don't worry, the snake skin is so big that not even 1/3 of it is used."
As he spoke, the fat man directly picked out the largest set, spread it on his thigh, and said excitedly.
"This thing is very strong, let me demonstrate it to you." It took a genius just one second to remember the address of this website: https://www.
As he spoke, he took out his bronze sword from under the seat, and then stabbed it hard at the snakeskin wallet.
A muffled sound was heard, and the sharp bronze sword stabbed the snake skin hard, leaving only a shallow scratch.
"So hard!" I couldn't help but widen my eyes.
Although I knew that this snake skin was indeed very strong, and I brought it back because of this, I didn't expect it to be so hard and able to resist the attack of a bronze sword.
After all, this bronze sword is no ordinary thing.
This armor is a bit ugly, but if worn on the body, it can indeed bring a lot of protection to the body.
Judging from the hardness, I guess even ordinary bullets can't penetrate it.
"I asked someone to air-dry this thing. It's just like cowhide. The harder it dries, the harder it gets! Fortunately, I have an electric drill, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get it out. Let's put it on just in case!"
When the fat man said this, I noticed something was wrong with his expression. I understood immediately and asked with some seriousness:
"Fat man, are you hiding something from me?"
The fat man's hand paused slightly, and after hesitating for a moment, he sighed softly.
"I didn't want to tell you at first because I was worried that you would be under too much pressure. I did a hexagram test before and the situation was not very good!"
"What does the hexagram say?" I asked.
The fat man sighed softly and said: "Heaven's secret has no form, Wuqu is on the left, and Greedy Wolf is out of position!"
My face suddenly turned ugly. The killing and disaster represented by the Greedy Wolf star was broken at this time. This was a bad omen. Could it be that Hu Zi and the others were really more in trouble than good?
"But strangely enough, this hexagram is a bit vague, the hexagram images are swinging left and right, and the martial arts also show signs of escape, so the final result cannot be seen for the time being!" Fatty continued.
I nodded and breathed a sigh of relief, which confirmed what Xiao Qin said before.
It seems that we still have hope.
I must calm down, I must change these disasters that are about to happen!!
There must be no mistakes this time, because one wrong step will lead to the next wrong step."
I didn't speak any more. After thinking for a long time, I gradually got an idea in my mind.
Without any further hesitation, I quickly put on the snakeskin vest under my clothes, then took a deep breath, opened the car door, and got out of the car with the fat man.
