A man in Changsha, Hunan Province was so enraged when he suspected a local supermarket sold him fake cigarettes this Tuesday that he got together a couple of his buddies and went to trash the place.
Just in case you thought this situation couldn't get any more Chinese, though, just wait until he whips out his weapon: a Green Dragon Crescent Blade, the weapon wielded by legendary general and marshal deity Guan Yu in the classic Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
The unique blade was, so the legend goes, invented by Guan Yu himself, and it's after him that the class of poled weapon — the guandao — was named. The Green Dragon Crescent Blade was also known as the Frost Fair Blade after battle in the snow when Guan Yu's weapon was continually splashed with the blood of his enemies, which then froze on the blade.
As for our angry smoker, though, both he and his friends were taken in for questioning by police. The shop owner is under investigation as well, to see if the accusation of pushing fake ciggies is true or not.
Luckily, Guan Yu is the patron deity of both cops and gangsters, so this guy's got someone upstairs looking out for him either way.
