Encounter with the old fox
"Seek good fortune and avoid evil, magical old turtle, very effective......" A loud shout like a tear spread over the town.
"Looks like this is it." Fang Xu, who got out of the car, had long hair fluttering, a silver square leather bag on his back, a long coat and trousers of the same color, and a light green tie, dressed quite charmingly.
The sun shone overhead, he raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, put on shiny casual leather shoes, and walked towards the destination in front of him.
Leaves and garbage are scattered on the ground at the intersection of the town, and the walls on both sides of the street occasionally overflow with black dirty water.
In front of the cement fence in the middle of the flower bed, surrounded by a bunch of people, the sun was blocked from the trees, although only the speckled light was leaked, but the power of the autumn tiger was still not to be underestimated, a sweaty and sour breath came from time to time from the surrounding crowd, Fang Xu frowned a pair of thick eyebrows with a little sunshine on his face, stretched out a hand, and covered his nose.
Looking through the cracks, an old turtle the size of a basin was tied to the trunk of a tree with a thick rope, stretched out half of its head, slightly closed its eyes, and lazily lay on the flower fence, and next to it, there was a large piece of paper full of calligraphy.
"This old turtle is really a god, he is not afraid of people, that is Lao Yu originally planned to sell it, for a few dollars, but brought to the county seat, he actually ran to a beggar woman next to him, biting her trouser legs, Lao Yu did not pay attention to it at first, when the beggar woman raised his head, but found that some faces were familiar. When I saw a black peach heart birthmark in her ear, I recognized that this person was actually herself, and her wife who ran away madly more than ten years ago ...... "Speaking of the old turtle, an onlooker said spittle.
"This old turtle is really a god, I won't buy it again, now Lao Yu only takes it every day, and comes to this town to solve everyone's problems. You see, just spread this piece of paper here, whatever you ask, just tell the old turtle and he will climb on the paper and tell you the answer......"
"Magical Old Turtle, I've finally found you," Fang Xu was overjoyed in his heart, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, letting go of the hand covering his mouth. He was handsome, fashionably dressed, and had a faint fragrance all around him, which contrasted sharply with the wrinkled and filthy face around him.
"What are you looking for him?" Guarding the right side of the old turtle was a short, bald man, who was what they called Lao Yu, about fifty years old, wearing a washed white blue overalls, with his back bent. He saw Fang Xu's eyes staring at the old turtle, his eyes instantly became vigilant, and the wrinkles around him were immediately straightened, he grabbed the rope on the old turtle's feet, picked up the old turtle, and put it into the big cloth box on the side......
"Okay, then don't talk nonsense, I want to buy him back. Say, how much? Fang Xu clasped his hands around his chest, looked at the old man, looking at what this person was wearing, it can be seen that his family background is not good, like this kind of person, he doesn't want to deal with it more, and it should be a direct and effective way to smash it with money.
"If you don't sell it, you won't sell it for any amount of money." Unexpectedly, the old man snorted and glanced at Fang Xu disdainfully, "Beauty, I can help you ask him if you want to ask, but if you want to buy it, then I won't send it away." ”
"I'll go, I'll make this number." Fang Xu was really taken aback, he stretched out a finger and shook it in front of the old man. I don't believe it, it's just an old turtle, you don't like money?
"A thousand?" Someone next to him glanced at Fang Xu with disdain, "Beauty." You want to sell Lao Yu's treasure for a thousand yuan, don't be delusional. We have someone here who has sold 3,000, but they haven't sold it. ”
"Go, go, go, they're all gone." Seeing that Fang Xu wanted to speak and stopped, Lao Yu got up and raised his hand to drive the people around him away, until no one came back, and then retreated to the opposite side of Fang Xu.
"I'm talking about 10,000." Fang Xu looked at Lao Yu and shook his head, "In addition, I want to state that I am not a beauty, I am a pure master." ”
"You're so pretty, you're not a beauty. It must be a shemale! Old Yu has strange eyes and grins.
"I don't know how to appreciate, this is called fashion." Fang Xu's face turned red with anger, communicating with such a mountain villager is really insulting my identity. He flicked his sleeves in anger and turned to leave.
"Don't come back to me until you bring the old turtle back." Yizhuo's words echoed in my ears. Fang Xu was shocked, got up and took a step, and retreated, "How is it?" Without further ado, do you sell or not? ”
"You've got to give me time to think!" Lao Yu held his chin in his hand, looked at Fang Xu from the gap in his squinted eyes, looking at the appearance of this young man, he was not from us here, he was in such a hurry, and he did not hesitate to endure the insult, he was willing to pay 10,000 yuan to buy such an old turtle, is there anything strange about this? Or, this is really a turtle, more than this price at all, and a mist appeared in Lao Yu's eyes, "Do you really want to buy it?" ”
This is an old fox, Fang Xu secretly said badly, "Nonsense, I ran so far, why waste my tongue, do you sell it or not?" ”
"Well, I think it's getting late. My family lives near this town, so why don't you come and rest with me for the night. I'll answer you when I'm done. ”
"How about I add another 5,000 with you? This is already the limit, you sell it to me now. "Anyway, Yizhuo gave 30,000 yuan, Fang Xu looked around, this place is too suffocating, I don't believe that this old man doesn't love money......
Add five thousand? I heard you right! The fog in Lao Yu's eyes was even thicker, his small eyes were bent into a line, staring at Fang Xu's bulging backpack intentionally or unintentionally, secretly thinking about what was lining it.
"Okay?" Fang Xu asked.
"If you are in a hurry, you can go back. I haven't decided whether to sell it to you or not yet, and of course you can come back tomorrow, but I can't guarantee what will happen tonight. "I don't believe that you are not fooled, and there is a hint of treachery between Lao Yu's eyebrows.
Old fox! Fang Xu secretly regretted that he was too eager, "Okay, I'll wait for you for one night." ”
The "Didi ......" phone rang, and it was Yizhuo calling, "How is it?" Did you find it? I want to meet him......"
"Come on, bring it to you tomorrow." For the sake of Yizhuo, Fang Xu decided to let go.
"Walk, call it a day, my darling." Lao Yu picked up the old turtle, walked to a nearby rusty tricycle, and placed it in the tricycle compartment......
