"Survival period".

Despite the teller's persuasion, Li Yunshan chose the current account because he knew that a fixed deposit would earn him 300 yuan more in interest than a current account, and he was worried about having to spend a lot of money soon.

"Oh well."

Seeing that Li Yunshan wouldn't listen to reason, the teller had no choice but to open a current account for him.

But just then, a commotion broke out outside the bank.

Sharp screams, panicked shouts, things being smashed, and children crying all rang out at once.

Inside the bank, people who were originally waiting to deposit or withdraw money all crowded curiously at the lobby entrance to look outside.

"What's wrong? What happened outside?"

"I don't know, I just heard someone shouting outside, it sounded like someone was stabbing people with a knife."

"What? Attacking someone with a knife? In broad daylight, who would dare to do that?"

"He seems to be mentally unstable, has some kind of mental problem, and ran away from home..."

At the entrance to the bank lobby, a dozen or so people crowded around, looking out and discussing the situation.

Li Yunshan had just finished depositing his money, and as he was walking out from the counter with his passbook and deposit slip, he paused for a moment upon hearing this.

Neuropathy?

Is there something wrong with your brain?

He even tried to attack people with a knife?

That sounds kind of scary.

Before he even reached the lobby entrance, a scream erupted from the crowd that had been peering out: "Oh no! That lunatic is charging at us with a knife!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the dozen or so people who had been crowding at the entrance to watch the commotion suddenly scrambled back into the bank as if they had been electrocuted. Some of them lost their footing and fell to the ground, only to be trampled on several times by those who came back behind them. Their clothes and faces were instantly covered with shoe prints, making them look utterly disheveled.

Li Yunshan sidestepped the people who retreated in, and then pulled up the person who had fallen to the ground and been trampled on several times.

The bank staff were all on high alert, and one timid teller even turned pale and began to sob quietly.

"Don't be afraid, what's the panic!"

Li Yunshan glanced at the bank staff, then let out a low roar.

This sound was like a wake-up call, instantly calming the panicked hearts of the people.

Everyone looked at Li Yunshan.

Li Yunshan glanced around the lobby, picked up a thick wooden stick leaning against the wall, and walked out of the lobby.

He took small steps and moved slowly, but each step was steady and powerful, unlike others who were panicked.

Seeing someone pick up a wooden stick and walk outside immediately calmed the panicked people in the lobby.

Li Yunshan walked out of the bank and stood outside the gate. Looking down at the street, he saw that it was in chaos. People were running away in a panic. The aunties who were buying vegetables didn't even bother to pick up their baskets after they fell. Women with children hurriedly grabbed one of their older children by the hand and carried another child in their arms, and hurriedly hid in a nearby small restaurant.

The bicycle repair shop also closed its doors tightly.

All sorts of things were scattered on the ground in the street.

Crushed cabbage stalks, broken eggs, smashed frozen pears...

There was also a little boy wearing a padded jacket and a tiger-head hat, sitting alone on the street crying loudly. No one knew which heartless parents had left him there.

Not far from the little boy, a middle-aged man with drool dripping from his mouth was wildly waving a boning knife, chasing after a woman in a floral cotton-padded jacket and hacking at her.

The boning knife with its thin blade gleamed brightly in the winter sun, and the tip and edge were stained with blood, leaving one wondering who had suffered the worst misfortune.

As the woman ran, she screamed and hid in a grocery store, where the owner quickly closed the door.

The madman lost his target, and his unfocused eyes began to search for other people on the street.

Suddenly, he noticed the little boy sitting on the ground crying loudly. After a pause, he grinned foolishly and rushed towards the little boy.

"Ah! That lunatic...that lunatic rushed at that child! Someone, please save that child!"

A scream rang out the instant the madman charged at the little boy, and a woman pointed in terror at the little boy who was still sitting on the street, crying loudly.

"Let that child go."

A young man carrying a wooden stick rushed out from the side, trying to stop the madman. However, when he saw that the madman's gleaming boning knife was stained with bright red blood, he panicked first and was slashed on the shoulder by the madman.

"what!"

The young man dropped the wooden stick in his hand, let out a scream, clutched his shoulder and rolled around on the ground, cold sweat beading on his forehead from the pain.

Blood flowed from between his fingers, staining his military green coat red.

Those who were hiding were even more terrified when they saw this.

Screams and cries filled the air. Some people rushed to call the police, while others tried to attract the attention of the crazy man by shouting, but no one dared to rush out to save the little boy who was sitting on the street crying like a doll.

After injuring the young man, the madman didn't stop. Holding the boning knife, he walked straight towards the little boy, like a rabid dog that only knew how to kill and tear apart. Just then, Li Yunshan, holding a wooden stick, stood between the madman and the little boy.

Those who had been hiding nearby stared wide-eyed in astonishment at Li Yunshan's sudden appearance. Two of the bolder men hurriedly ran out of their hiding places and, taking advantage of the madman's inattention, quickly carried away the wounded young man, leaving a pool of blood on the ground, which looked extremely gruesome.

When the madman saw someone standing in front of him, holding a wooden stick as thick as his wrist, he subconsciously felt that this was a provocation. So he suddenly raised the boning knife in his hand and slashed at Li Yunshan.

Facing the gleaming boning knife coming at him, Li Yunshan neither retreated nor showed the slightest fear.

When two people meet on a narrow path, the brave will prevail. If you are afraid of someone who is mentally ill and vicious, the consequences will be unimaginable, and you may even put yourself in danger.

Only by facing it bravely can we protect ourselves and the little boy behind us who is still crying loudly.

So when the madman's boning knife came at him, Li Yunshan gripped the wooden stick in his hands tightly and swung it upwards to meet the sharp blade head-on.

The boning knife collided violently with the wooden stick in his hand, and Li Yunshan felt a tremendous force pressing down on him. The strength of this madman was far greater than he had imagined.

After the boning knife struck the wooden stick, it somehow became embedded in the stick.

Li Yunshan glanced at it quickly and realized that the boning knife blade had cut into the wooden stick more than halfway.

Fortunately, the stick was made from the trunk of a tree that grows on a cliff in the deep mountains with a long growth cycle. It is hard and has a dense wood grain, otherwise it would not have been able to withstand the full force of the boning knife's chopping.

Just as the boning knife embedded itself in the wooden stick, Li Yunshan, holding one end of the stick with one hand, punched the madman hard in the armpit with his right fist.

With a "bang," before the madman could react, he felt a pain under his armpit and instinctively turned half of his body to the side, a pained expression on his face, and his grip on the boning knife loosened considerably.

Just then, Li Yunshan suddenly took a step back, then gathered his strength and kicked out with a side kick, which landed squarely on the madman's abdomen.

Li Yunshan used almost all his strength in that side kick; the power was astonishing.

Although the charging distance was short, even the madman would have a hard time withstanding his side kick.

The moment Li Yunshan's foot struck him in the abdomen, the madman's eyes, which had been gleaming with madness, widened in shock, and a look of pain appeared on his face. His body, weighing over 100 pounds, flew backward like a cannonball, traveling seven or eight meters away.

Those around him who had been watching Li Yunshan with fear were almost all stunned when they saw this scene.

But after kicking the madman away, Li Yunshan did not stop. The moment the madman landed, he had already closed in on him.

With a "thud," as soon as the madman landed, Li Yunshan stomped on him, then grabbed one of the madman's arms with one hand, and with his right fist, he punched the madman's armpit seven or eight times.

Faced with Li Yunshan's attack, the madman let out a series of screams and spat out a mouthful of blood. Clearly, Li Yunshan's kick had seriously injured him.

After stabbing the madman under the armpit seven or eight times, Li Yunshan finally released his hand.

At this moment, the madman felt that one of his arms was sore, numb, and weak, and he couldn't even lift his arm. The nerves in his entire arm had been numbed by the few blows Li Yunshan had struck.

Faced with the ferocious Li Yunshan, the madman instinctively struggled to stand up and run away, but Li Yunshan forcefully stepped on his back and twisted his other hand behind his back.

Just then, a few daring people rushed out of the shops on the street. They pounced on the madman, pinned down his limbs, and one of them took out a rope and, together with Li Yunshan, hurriedly tied the madman's hands and feet together.

Seeing that he was about to be tied up with ropes, the madman began to struggle frantically, twisting his body violently and shouting like a madman, drool dripping from the corner of his mouth and onto the ground.

The men who were holding down the madman's limbs almost lost control of him.

Seeing this, Li Yunshan made a knife shape with his hand and slashed hard at the back of the madman's neck.

The madman then rolled his eyes and fainted.

The men who had been holding the madman down immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

After they had tied the madman's limbs securely, they all sat down on the street, panting heavily with tension.
