They stayed at the old woman's house, which was big enough for them to move. This morning, Ye Duhong and Su Yu wanted to eat fragrant sea shrimp, and it happened that there was a sale fifty meters outside the door, and the two met there to eat shrimp together, and when they ate shrimp, they drank some wine, and felt comfortable, and when they left, they brought some shrimp and prepared to go back to others to eat. They love this kind of food and recommend it to others, they love to share the food with everyone, and sharing is happy.

On the way out of the restaurant with fried shrimp in the night, two children ran over and said in one mouth: "That door, rotten with such a big hole, black and dark, it's terrible, this is the third door." Another said: "It's useless to change a hundred doors, it's rotten, rotten, rotten, and rotten." Ye Duhong listened to this "rotten, change", and didn't understand, so he asked the two children: "What are you two talking about, what is rotten, change, what's going on?"

One of the children said, "It's at the south gate, and there are so many people gathered there, won't you go to see it yourself?"

There are still a lot of people on the street, most of them are moving in the south, that is, some people who go north, see people going south, join in the excitement, and also go south, Ye Duhong and Su Yu are also members of the crowd going south, do they want to see what is happening in Nancheng, provoke so many people to see, is it a dead person?

Although the owner of the island used to enjoy the prosperity in the palace, he could see the simple world here, he was still curious, he came to the door, saw a lot of people running south, and asked what happened, some people ignored the owner of the island, ran south, and some people left the sentence "hurry up and see", and followed the others to the south. The owner of the island only said that it was interesting, he didn't know what was going on. Two old women walked over, and the owner of the island learned a news from their slow telling: the south gate of the sixth time was broken again, this hole was not moth-eaten or burned, it was so good and decayed, this new city gate was only a week, and it broke down so quickly, the new city gate at that time was tested, hard and thick, but suddenly it decayed, incredible. The owner of the island listened to the old woman's painstaking narration and wondered: How could such a thick city gate decay, and could there really be anyone who could make an object vicissitudes in an instant? Wouldn't such a person be able to travel through time and space? The owner of the island thought so and walked south.

After Meng Hai ate ramen for a night, he was about to go home, and when he learned about the South City Gate, he wanted to go and see, but when he saw that the wind and sand were slightly rising at this time, he had the idea of going home and lying on the bed to rest, but so many people went in one direction, which caused a huge attraction to Meng Hai, people are like this, when they are not clear about their direction, the direction of most people may become his direction, so Meng Hai also went south.

The wind and sand blew on the passers-by, although many of them followed suit, but they still struggled to withstand the torture of the wind and sand, and soon, Meng Hai, the island owner, Ye Duhong, and Su Yu all came to the South City Gate, but they did not immediately see the appearance of the South City Gate, because there were many, many people gathered here, and this crowd blocked the road out of the city. The owner of the island asked Ye Duhong if he wanted to fly up to see, and Ye Duhong reprimanded the owner sternly: "It's not that if we can fly, we will always fly, as people who can fly, don't fly when we encounter things, don't always love to watch Xiàn, you know, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in the world, don't think that you have a broken bird and think that you are sorry, who is flying here? If we fly, will it look abrupt? Let's honestly squeeze and watch." ”

There are indeed a lot of people, but there are still gaps that can pass through the eyes, through the gaps of those people, Ye Duhong and others saw the city gate, such a big city gate, now it has become a pile of sawdust, this unbelievable thing happened in front of so many people's eyes, and they all expressed horror and doubt. The county magistrate had already come to the city gate, and called Taoists, Legalists, Yin-Yang families, Christians, Catholics, Mohists, Confucianists and other talents. Later, a scientist came, looked at the sawdust with a magnifying glass for a long time, and couldn't solve this problem, so the county magistrate scolded, how is this door broken, why can't you let out a fart?

Everyone was silent, and the county magistrate announced: Now, replace the old city gate and install the new city gate.

The new gate was inspected by professionals, including the county magistrate and the onlookers, and was indeed a sturdy wooden gate, which was lifted by a group of strong men, and a special person in charge skillfully fixed the door, so that the gate was installed.

Then, the door made a slight noise, and everyone saw that the door was turning into wood fragments little by little, and the county magistrate saw this, and snored to hell, how did the new door, which had just been installed, become sawdust?

Everyone exclaimed, and the door turned into slag of wood in the exclamations of the crowd. Ye Duhong and Meng Hai jumped over the crowd and landed in front of the county magistrate, Ye Duhong asked, "What's the matter?

The county magistrate said in a somewhat complaining tone, "This door is so thick," the county magistrate gestured, "Why did it become scum for a while?" This strange natural scene made everyone think for a long time, and they couldn't come up with a clue.

Finally, an old beggar came, and the old beggar was holding a strange-shaped wooden stick, and said tremblingly: "Comrade county magistrate, I was wandering in the south of the city, and I saw that there were monsters on the mountain in the south of the city, and I began to think that I was dazzled, but I wiped my eyes several times and looked again, it was indeed a monster, and the monsters were very large, and I was afraid that they would eat people, so I did not dare to go further south." Friend of the county magistrate, I think the monster is playing a prank on people. ”

After hearing this, the county magistrate went out of the city gate, looked to the south of the city, the hills were undulating, the grass was tender and green like smoke, and there was nothing unusual in sight, he stood for a long time, turned back to the old folks, and said: "Don't worry, everyone, I will organize manpower to investigate this matter and give you a satisfactory answer in the shortest possible time." Under the persuasion of the county magistrate, everyone gradually dispersed, Ye Duhong and others remained in the local area, Ye Duhong took the initiative to say: "The city gate has been changed, it has been broken, this is not a trivial matter." Something like this happened in the county, and I am willing to work for the county, what are the instructions?"

Meng Hai said: "Yes, county magistrate, there is such a big thing in the county, we must do our best to help if we can help." ”

The county magistrate said sincerely: "To tell the truth, the people in the county have enough food and clothing, and they are considered rich, but no matter how rich they are, they can't always buy the city gate, right? ”

"Don't worry," Ye Duhong said sincerely, "I will work with my partner to investigate this matter, and we must find out." ”

The wind and sand rose again, and although the south of the city was full of vegetation, it was desolate.
