Chapter 11: The Town of Antiques
"Bang!
With a soft sound, the shuttle bus cushioned forward for a while, and listened.
"It's here!
I only heard the bad driver holding a cigarette in his mouth, waving his hand to everyone, signaling that he had arrived at the station and letting the passengers get off the bus. The sound woke the girl up, and her little head spun around the woman's feet, rubbed her eyes with her little hands, and sat up with a big yawn.
She glanced at the carriage in confusion, and finally her eyes fell on the woman next to her, and said, "Mom, have you arrived?"
The woman gently rubbed the girl's head, her face was still so ordinary, it seemed that it was normal to turn the two into puppets, without setting off a trace of waves. smiled and said, "Yes, when you get home, is Xin'er Gao happy?"
With that, she picked up the girl and walked under the carriage. During this period, passing by Dao Chen's location, the girl greeted him with a smile and said, "Big brother, I'm going home! See you next time!"
Dao Chen obviously hadn't recovered from that scene just now, his eyes fell on the woman's back, and he couldn't help but shudder. In the end, he pulled up a far-fetched smile, stood up tremblingly, shook his hand at the girl and said, "Little sister, goodbye!"
However, just as he was wondering why the group sitting in the back seat didn't get out of the car with him and looked back, he was taken aback. I saw that the rows of seats behind him were empty, and there was still someone there!
Such a strange scene made Dao Chen shudder, he looked out through the glass window, trying to see if he could see them, but he didn't find any figures. The only thing I could see was the few pedestrians coming and going near the tall and majestic gate not far away.
"Shhh
Dao Chen gasped, his eyes fell on the car door, and he wanted to get out of the car quickly. Returning to the ground may give him a lot of peace of mind.
At this time, the driver chewed a cigarette, got into the car through the passenger entrance, and then went to the seat next to the cab and played with the chair.
As if he found that there was still someone in the car, his eyes fell on Dao Chen's body, and seeing that his face was a little panicked, he couldn't help but smile: "You should have just started practicing, right?"
Dao Chen, who just wanted to get out of the car, passed by his side, and when he heard this, his eyes fell on the driver's body, and after seeing that he had no malicious intent, he nodded suspiciously.
The driver continued to figure out his own, and said, "Soul puppet people are like this, you don't have to pay too much attention to it, there are too many things like this in the entire evolutionary world, and you will understand after a long time." ”
Dao Chen nodded, hugged his fists and said, "Thank you seniors for your enlightenment, I, Dao Chen, dare to ask my seniors' names?"
"What's the name?" After hearing this, the driver stopped what he was doing, looked at the ceiling of the carriage, and after a long time, he took off the cigarette in his hand, spit out the smoke ring, and said leisurely: "It's been too long, I have forgotten, who remembers the events of more than a hundred years ago." But they all called me the ferryman, I used to pick up passengers by boat, but the boat consumed too many resources, so I changed to a bus. ”
Seeing this, Dao Chen's face was stunned! The ferryman said that what happened more than a hundred years ago does not mean that the other party has lived for more than a hundred years, and he is still this young appearance, which shows the high level of evolution of the other party! He suddenly felt that he knew too little about the evolution world, and his bones were surprisingly handsome, and the other party might lack an apprentice.
So, Dao Chen's face became serious, and when the ferryman was puzzled, he suddenly bowed down. With a sincere tone, he shouted respectfully: "Master!"
After hearing this, the ferryman was stunned, and Dao Chen's face changed too quickly, which really made him a little overwhelmed. After a long time, he coughed and said, "You don't want to apprentice, my divine sense tells me that if you promise me, I will be pitted, so you should go and pit others." Moreover, I don't take apprentices. ”
Dao Chen had asked the Purple Demon about Divine Consciousness before, and he knew that people with strong Divine Consciousness had a certain amount of foreknowledge ability, and they could also read the minds of beings whose evolution level was much lower than his own, so he was not surprised by this. However, he also knows that the other party's ability to predict is related to the other party's mind.
Thinking of this, he began to hypnotize himself constantly, telling himself that he only wanted to apprentice. His face became natural, and he successfully hypnotized himself, and soon his face became serious again, and he sincerely shouted, "Master!"
After hearing this, the ferryman stopped what he was doing again, and he, who was originally calm, suddenly looked at Dao Chen in surprise. The small sense of crisis in his divine consciousness actually disappeared, and was replaced by the sincerity of the other party! He was very puzzled, and with a little puzzlement, he looked at Dao Chen in surprise and asked, "How did you do it?
Dao Chen's heart splashed with a trace of waves, and he hypnotized himself and suppressed his own nature. But the effect time was very short, and he obviously felt that he couldn't hold it anymore, and hurriedly said: "Because I am sincere, this is not a lie, this is sincere!"
The ferryman was stunned, and soon after that, he said with a black line on his face: "Give me down, I'm going to the next station, I don't have time to spend it with you!"
Because Dao Chen couldn't hold back, his nature broke through the barrier of hypnosis and was exposed to the ferryman's divine sense. As a result, the ferryman obviously felt a stronger sense of crisis, and immediately understood that this apprentice must be the goods of a pit elder, if he agreed, he would not be at peace in the future!
Obviously, Dao Chen also noticed this, so his face changed, he changed his previous seriousness, revealing a pitiful appearance, and said: "Senior, you can't help but look at the bones in amazement, as a genius in the cultivation world, am I simple, kind and handsome, being destroyed physically and mentally by others?"
I saw that the ferryman lifted the chair without changing his face, revealing the small box inside, and took out a scroll from it. After hearing this, he glanced at Dao Chen strangely, he had never seen a person who could praise himself like this, and said, "Bear with me, I have never seen someone as thick-skinned as you in half my life." ”
The doubts in his heart were swept away when Dao Chen's complexion changed drastically, and he was almost moved when Dao Chen hypnotized himself to reveal his sincerity.
At this point, he was still a little afraid, if he really agreed, he really didn't know what Dao Chen would do to pit the master! After feeling the warning of the divine sense getting stronger and stronger, he felt more and more that it was a correct choice for him not to agree, otherwise he might be pitted miserably for half his life.
Dao Chen showed a grief-stricken expression and said, "Are you so ruthless?"
"Get the hell out of here!"
The ferryman was originally writing with the brush taken out of the pocket of his clothes, but after hearing this, he couldn't help but feel a spirit, and the pen in his hand was also crooked, and he wrote the original word wrong! Then, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he lifted Dao Chen with black lines on his face, and threw him down. If it weren't for Dao Chen's respect, he would have done it a long time ago.
Then he climbed directly from the car to the cab, only to hear a car sound, he started the car and drove away.
"Ahem!"
Dao Chen fanned the dust brought up by the start of the car, coughed twice, and sighed: "If you don't agree, you won't agree! Don't be so rude, pity me, a genius with amazing bones." ”
As he spoke, his eyes fell on the gate of the town not far away, and he couldn't help but be speechless! This scene was too shocking, and the antique town was even more spectacular than what he had seen in the city square!
That gate is as magnificent as the Nantianmen painted by Jiang Fu when he was a child! Four pillars made of marble are arranged together, and the pillars engraved with pictures of a hundred beasts are lifelike, just like living divine beasts, as if they may rush out of the pillars at any time! The door plate at the top of the door, I don't know what material it is made of, is surrounded by a curling white mist.
In the white mist, it can be faintly seen, and there are three large characters carved on it. The font is vigorous and powerful, not at all like it was carved, but like it was written by a great calligrapher!
Dao Chen guessed that it should be written in three big characters "Antique Town", but the font was too old and he didn't know it. And through the gate, you can see the antique streets inside, without a trace of modern technology style!
With amazement, Dao Chen walked into what he thought was an antique town, and being in the middle of an ancient town made him feel like he had traveled back in time. If it weren't for the occasional pedestrian in modern costumes on the street, he would have doubted that he had really crossed over.
The houses on the street are all made of wood, and the roofs are all tiled in the ancient style, which is elegant and fragrant. At this time, many shops on the street are closed, perhaps because it is too early. However, there are also many people who set up stalls on the streets, and they all sit quietly on the chairs they have brought, waiting for the arrival of customers.
It's just that the equipment on their stall is a little strange, and some of it looks like technological products, and it is actually auctioned at the antique market. It made Dao Chen very curious, and at the same time, he also found an open space, laid out the packages on his back, and then placed the things neatly one by one.
