Chapter 63: The Ghost Bridge (2)
Miss Bailey took the card she drew and looked at it, and then glanced at Ye Xi meaningfully: "Miss Daoist, you are not simple. ”
Ye Xi: "......"
I'm sorry, but that doesn't sound very pleasant.
Joshua knew what she was thinking, and explained with a smile: "Miss Ye Xi, you may not know that the prototype of the fool is actually joker, that is, the big and small ghost in the playing cards, which means that you may be one of our trump cards in the future." ”
Ye Xi: "......"
Is this meant to put a high hat on me? It can't be some other attempt to put a high hat on me now, right? I can't see that this kid is very good.
After leaving Miss Bailey, Joshua took Ye Xi to a middle-aged man dressed in colorful clothes and full of tassels.
Ye Xi had seen this kind of dress, as if it was a shamanic dress, and guessed that he was a shamanic wizard.
Joshua introduced, "Miss Ye Xi, this is Mr. Billeg, a shamanic wizard. Mr. Billeg, this is Miss Ye Xi, a Chinese Taoist priest. ”
Bileg glanced at Ye Xi coldly, and there was no friendly expression.
Ye Xi didn't care, as the newborn sun of the motherland, she wouldn't care about these sunset reds.
Joshua then led her to an old monk in a red robe.
The old monk was probably past the age of the cane, and sat tremblingly on a stool with a cane.
Joshua introduced: "Miss Ye Xi, this is Master Zhitong. Master Zhitong, this is Daoist Ye Xi. ”
Master Zhitong squinted his eyes and stretched his neck to look at Ye Xi: "What is it called?"
Ye Xi: "......"
Ye Xi repeated it loudly three times before the old monk understood.
Looking at Master Zhitong's appearance that he was about to drive west, Ye Xi couldn't help but secretly curse the group of people just now in his heart: It is really unbelievable that he didn't even let go of such an old man!!
In the end, when Joshua was about to take Ye Xi to meet the last demon slayer, the man came to them first and quickly bowed 90 degrees to Ye Xi: "Hello, I'm Gao Kapokyi." ”
The girl in front of her, Gao Kapoian, was wearing a white blouse and a red scarlet hakama, with a delicate face and long black hair, which looked fresh and divine.
Ye Xi has watched a little anime under the influence of the third senior sister, and this person's dress should be the shrine maiden in a Japanese shrine.
Seeing Gao Kapok Yiye Xi, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: This behind-the-scenes player is too big, looking for someone from all over the world.
Ye Xi saw that Gao Kapok was still bowing, and quickly bowed back a 90-degree bow: "Hello, my name is Ye Xi, and I am a Taoist priest." ”
Gao Kapok bowed a 90-degree bow again: "First time we meet, please give me a lot of advice!"
Ye Xi also hurriedly bowed back a 90-degree bow: "Where is it, it's easy to say!"
Don't bow anymore, no matter how young your waist is, you can't stand such a toss.
After talking with Gao Mumian for a while, Ye Xi felt that Mianyi was similar to the Japanese girl she saw in the anime, although her personality was a little restrained, but the whole person was still very cute and polite, which made Ye Xi feel the charm of a girl.
Ye Xi: ......
Suddenly reacted, obviously I'm a girl, why do I have to feel the charm from others?!
After the six people in the conference hall exchanged for a while and were almost familiar with each other, the elevator suddenly opened again with a "ding".
Everyone looked over curiously: could there be any other masters coming?
In the curious eyes of everyone, out of the elevator came out of the few big men who were holding Ye Xi hostage, and after they came out, they immediately stood respectfully on both sides of the elevator, and a middle-aged man dressed very ordinary walked out of the elevator.
Ye Xi was instantly stunned when he saw this person.
Although she is a cultivator and rarely sets foot in the outside world, she still knows the mayor of City C.
It turned out that this middle-aged man, who was very ordinary in both dress and appearance, was the mayor of City C, Zhao Yuanzhi, Mayor Zhao.
Mayor Zhao greeted them and said, "Everyone, please take a seat." ”
Ye Xi and the six of them sat around this large round conference table.
Mayor Zhao glanced at them approximately, then looked at them with a heavy face and said, "Originally, according to the rules, I shouldn't have come to you, but now that the dead horse is a live horse doctor, I hope everyone here can do me a favor, if I can successfully solve this matter, the reward is not a problem." ”
There was silence as he waited for him to say the following.
Mayor Zhao's secretary turned on his laptop and projector, and a picture of a bridge appeared on a large screen in front of the conference table.
The bridge is quaint and magnificent, and at first glance people don't notice anything strange.
Mayor Zhao continued: "This bridge is called the North Third Bridge, which was built during the Republic of China period and was designed and built by a British engineer at that time. The North Third Bridge spans the C River and has been one of the important transportation hubs of City C until now. We asked experts to see that the quality of this bridge is absolutely fine, and it can still be put into use. But just these days, strange things have been happening with the bridge. As long as there is a vehicle driving to the center of the bridge, it will always rush out of the guardrail and rush to the heart of the river, and the bridge has to be closed now. ”
"We've ruled out all objective and subjective factors, and the rest is not what we can figure out. So I've invited you, and I hope you'll do your best to resolve this matter. Otherwise, the government would have to forcibly demolish the North Third Bridge, which is also considered a cultural relic, and would have to invest a lot of money to build a new bridge, which is really laborious and costly. ”
Ye Xi was moved by Mayor Zhao's words, and looked at Mayor Zhao with a firm look in his eyes and said, "Mayor, don't worry, we will definitely do our best to solve this matter." ”
Mayor Zhao looked at Ye Xi and pondered for a moment: "You are Ye Xi, right?"
Ye Xi was stunned for a moment: "Mayor, do you know me?"
When did I become so famous that even the mayor knew me? I'll have to talk to Master on the phone later to show off.
Mayor Zhao nodded: "It's Lao Zhang, it was Zhang Tianhua who introduced you to me, saying that you have a lot of ability, even the shelf is also very big, and if you look for you, you have to make an appointment in advance, so I directly asked people to bring you over, I hope you don't mind." ”
Ye Xi: "......"
Now the truth is revealed, it turns out that it's all the ghosts of this stinky uncle!
Ye Xi also drew a circle in his heart to curse Zhang Tianhua, and Joshua and Gao Mumian asked Mayor Wang's secretary about the details of the incident very professionally at first.
Miss Bailey, the gypsy witch, rubbed the tarot cards on the table like a mahjong player, and kept muttering to herself.
Although the shaman wizard Billeg, who was sitting upright and staring straight at him, looked very serious, in fact, the god had long since lost his mind, and he was typically deserting.
As for the elderly master of Zhitong, from the moment Mayor Zhao's secretary just turned on the computer, he had already fallen asleep with his head tilted back in his chair, and he slept very soundly.
Mayor Zhao: "......"
Is this group of people really reliable? Why don't I go and plan the new bridge first?
