Chapter 62: The South Gate Bridge
In the south of X city, there used to be a moat, and a bridge needed to be crossed from the south out of the city, and then the old city was renovated, and the river was filled in, and the land area was expanded, and the bridge was not demolished, but became a landmark building, and people habitually called that piece the South Gate Bridge.
The sun has turned west, although the temperature has not dropped significantly, but it is much better than in the middle of the afternoon, especially the South Gate Bridge, I don't know if there was a river, the temperature in this part has been one or two degrees lower than the rest of the city, don't look at only one or two degrees, this is already a very terrible temperature difference.
Unlike the air conditioner at home, the enclosed space, you can be 20 degrees lower indoors than outside, but outdoors, in the case of enjoying the same sunshine, it is an incredible thing to want to have this temperature difference, look at the weather forecast, often 36 degrees at noon, 34 degrees at night, you can feel the body surface temperature at noon and night, you will know.
People say that it is because although the moat has been filled, the river god is still there, and the river god does not like high temperatures, so the temperature of the South Gate Bridge will be lower.
Entering the boundary of the South Gate Bridge, Dong Chenghu obviously felt much cooler.
The three Lin brothers formed a triangle to protect him in the middle, one thing Wang Ming was mistaken, Dong Chenghu never went forward and back, he would always take the three Lin brothers with him.
"Yo, this nobleman, come here and I'll show you! I see that your Yintang is black, and I think there is a catastrophe recently!" As soon as he walked a few steps, a middle-aged man with sunglasses beckoned and shouted on the side of the road.
There was a small table in front of the man, and a banner was erected next to it, on which were written the four big characters of 'Iron Tooth Divine Calculation'.
Dong Chenghu stopped, looked at the middle-aged man, and said with a smile: "Then did you calculate that you would have a bloody disaster today?"
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and was about to speak, when Lin Zhong already understood, stepped forward, kicked over his table, and smashed his fist on the middle-aged man's front door, shattering his sunglasses, cutting his face several times.
"Hmph, don't lie to people, don't talk about long-term eyes!" Next to the fortune-telling table, there were also many fortune-telling stalls, looking at the miserable situation of the middle-aged man, each covering his mouth and snickering.
Those who often come to Nanmen Bridge know that the fortune tellers here have no real skills, and can only be said to be students or couples who don't understand and newcomers who have just arrived.
That Dong Chenghu entered the South Gate Bridge, and did not look around, but walked steadily and straight, obviously with a goal, this kind of person must be an old oilman, you guy still dare to say that people have a big bad omen, aren't you looking for a fight, and look at the three entourages around him, all of them are not easy to get along with.
So when those fortune tellers saw Dong Chenghu from afar, they didn't see it, but the middle-aged man in sunglasses was new and didn't understand the market, so he started to laugh when he saw someone, and naturally he was going to be beaten.
"How are you beating people! I have good intentions to help you!" Lin Zhong seemed to be merciful, but he just broke his sunglasses and didn't hurt him too hard, so the middle-aged man struggled to get up from the ground, as if he was defending himself.
"Huh?" Lin Zhong, who was about to leave, couldn't help frowning when he heard this kid say more, and turned around, with a fierce look in his eyes.
"Eh, this master! You don't care about villains! He's a new big fool! Don't be sensible! If you punch him, you should be angry! Don't make a fuss!" When the other fortune tellers saw this posture, they hurriedly rushed up, and two of them went to block the middle-aged man's mouth and dragged him away, and the rest stopped in front of Lin Zhong.
"Let's go, just give the ghost old lady a face!" Dong Chenghu said.
As mentioned earlier, the South Gate Bridge has its own order, one of which is that if you are deceived here and find out on the spot, okay, you can beat the cheater, but you can't kill anyone, and secondly, if you don't find out on the spot, then you can only say that you are stupid, and you are not allowed to find fault again after leaving. This is the unwritten rule of the black area of the South Gate Bridge, and those who do not abide by it will end up miserable.
This rule is set by the ghost old lady, the ghost old lady is a very mysterious old man, living in a big mansion at the end of the South Gate Bridge, no one knows her age, only knows that she has a stunt, that is, you can invite ghosts!
Sometimes, if the ghost old lady asks a strong ghost to come up, it will be amazing! If you invite a ghost to come up, it can confuse people's minds!
A few years ago, there was a person who was not long-sighted and made trouble at the South Gate Bridge, but the ghost old lady invited the ghost to come up, confusing the man's mind, and let the man and eat by himself!
Soon after, I heard that the man had committed suicide out of shame.
And this is the reason why Dong Chenghu will come to find the ghost old lady.
Along the way, at the end of the South Gate Bridge, there is only one building here, antique, and the signboard at the door reads 'True Treasure Pavilion', which seems to be selling antiques.
As soon as I entered the door, a fat man in a coat greeted me with a smile.
"Yo, the tiger master is here, but I haven't seen you take care of it for a long time, I have a new treasure here, but it was from the Shang and Zhou periods! Look at it!" The big fat man didn't know where to pull out an oil-paper umbrella.
The umbrella is painted like a landscape painting, but it is not open, so it is not very realistic.
"Oh, yes, I'll see. Dong Chenghu took the umbrella and started to cool it, looking extremely new, and it seemed that he could still smell the ink fragrance of the paintings on it.
"I only found it in the morning, and I met you in the afternoon, it seems that this thing is related to you, so I will charge you 30,000!" the big fat man patted his belly and said.
"Thirty thousand, are you short of money to spend?" Dong Chenghu motioned to Lin Zhong next to him to give money, and then said: "But I don't want this umbrella, Shang Zhou?
Dong Chenghu patted the umbrella in his hand, banged it, and then handed it back.
"Hehe, it's worthy of being a tiger master, his eyes are like a torch!" The big fat man listened to the sound of ZFB's arrival, took the umbrella beautifully, and inserted the treasure of the 'Shang and Zhou periods' into the umbrella stand.
"I'm here to find the ghost old lady. Dong Chenghu said.
"Yo, that's really unfortunate!" The big fat man glanced at the time and said, "The ghost old lady is still taking a lunch break at this time, and it is estimated that it will take half an hour!"
"Okay, then I'll wait here for a while. Dong Chenghu nodded in response and sat down on his own.
After that, the big fat man didn't pay attention to Dong Chenghu anymore, and he didn't even pour a glass of water, what should he do.
He knew that everyone who came to find the ghost old lady had something to ask for, and as the servant of the ghost old lady, his shelf was naturally very high.
