There are fishing fires by the river, and it’s hard to sleep alone.
As night falls, the lights of the ferry on the River Styx light up, not the deep blue as imagined, but the warm orange-yellow as seen in ancient paintings.
Laughing, leisurely and elegant, the lively Naihe Bridge seems to have traveled to Chang'an during the Ghost Festival. It is extremely lively. Coupled with the music from the modern radio, it seems that ancient and modern blend together, perfectly exuding their respective charms.
Well, it's a very strange and beautiful scene, if it weren't for the couplet in front of me...
Leftist Couplet: "Fishing on the Riverside"
Right couplet: "It's hard to sleep alone"
The horizontal plaque, that is, the plaque, has three big characters written in the square - Zuiyunxuan.
Looking at them individually, there seems to be nothing wrong, but looking at them together, something is wrong, very wrong!
This doesn't seem to be serious!
"Let's go, Lao Chuan, go in, I won't let you spend money."
I was speechless.
Who the hell just said he couldn't come to this place?
"Go, go, Mo Guan, just stay there. Believe it or not, if you step in with your front foot, I will burn incense for you with your back foot."
Lao Sun said with disdain, and then pointed to a small shop in Zuiyunxuan next door.
It's said to be a small shop, but it doesn't even have a sign. The house looks a bit old and weird.
"This is the destination!"
Lao Sun said to me so confidently.
"The destination is stupid! Can you have some potential? What fun is there in an Internet cafe? Why are you so ruined?"
Haha, it turns out to be a black Internet cafe...
"After the underworld introduced Internet cafes from humans, everyone from wandering ghosts to judges were addicted to the Internet. Therefore, in recent years, underworld Internet cafes have restricted status and age, especially for those with official positions. For people from the underworld, the only places they can go are black Internet cafes."
Mr. Zhao shook his head and explained to me with a smile, but his eyes were a little deep, and he was obviously thinking about something.
"Get lost! Since we don't have the same opinions, let Lao Chuan decide!"
"It was supposed to be Lao Chuan, the newcomer here for the first time!"
Well, I was even more speechless when I saw Lao Sun Moguan, who was arguing until his face turned red, and then looked at me expectantly.
What's going on? Why don't you just find a resting place and take a nap...
"Grandpa Zhao, what do you want to go to?"
"no!"
"You must come!"
Mr. Zhao seemed to have expected it. He raised his head and smiled at me, and then said sheepishly,
"Old man, I came here to find some restaurants last time. I visited some restaurants and it caused a little trouble. But old man, I don't have any hobbies other than these places. It's up to you, Xiaochuan, to make the decision."
Mo Guan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Lao Sun's face visibly relaxed and he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
I smiled awkwardly.
It seems that when Mr. Zhao was young, he must have provoked the whole underworld, even though he used his cooking skills...
Not sure, how can the underworld be so easy to talk to? There must be a few evil spirits who do all kinds of evil, well...
I silently raised my head and glanced at Mr. Zhao, who was smiling, and then I honestly stopped thinking about it.
Speaking of which, Mr. Zhao's knife skills are also very sharp.
I shook off all the bloody images that came to my mind and pretended to be calm, pointing at them casually without even looking at them.
"How's it going there?"
"Good place!"
"no problem!"
"I think it's okay."
Looking at Old Sun Moguan, who also answered quickly without looking, and Old Man Zhao, who kept smiling, I once again had a deep understanding of Mr. Zhao's abilities.
Boss!
Hidden boss!
The top kind! !
However, when I led this group of people to the place I pointed at randomly, it turned out to be the same old-looking hut. It just had an extra sign than the previous dark Internet cafe, and an oil lamp was lit at the door.
"Huh? When did there be a divination room here, Mo Guan, do you know?"
Lao Sun pointed to the traditional Chinese character "Bu" and was a little surprised.
"I didn't know that there were thousands of newly opened shops and thousands of closed shops in the underworld in one day. I don't have the spare time to just go in and take a look."
Mo Guan glared at Lao Sun angrily, raised his feet and walked quickly, pushing the door open and walking in first.
As a governor who fishes all day long, I will see a ghost if I find out!
"Welcome, do you need a divination? There is a big opening discount now, four people are traveling together, one person is free of charge, dear~"
A young man, wearing a casual short-sleeved shirt and a pair of suit pants, greeted us warmly with a smile on his face.
Did you just come back from get off work?
"Oh, please forgive me, guest. I'm going to change my clothes first. I just returned to the store from get off work. There is free tea over there. You can help yourself."
As if he noticed my gaze, the young man's smile became brighter and brighter, and he turned and walked into the room behind him.
"This place doesn't look like a newly opened one, does it?"
I looked around and said casually.
"Oh, I just rented this house recently. It was originally used as a warehouse, so it looks a bit old."
As soon as I finished speaking, a young voice answered my questions with a smile.
I was startled and almost fell down, looking at the young man in front of me who had put on pajamas in confusion.
grass! What the hell is going on?
"This is not pajamas, it is a divination suit, dear~"
The young boss seemed to notice my doubts and explained with a broad smile.
Well, let's go, let's go quickly!
There is something wrong with this store! !
"Boss, what is your divination like? Please introduce it."
Lao Sun and the others seemed not to be surprised, and instead greeted the young boss casually.
"Sir, you are asking for the right point. Unlike other coquettish bitches on the market, our family has always adhered to the principle of honest service and careful production.
The divination method alone integrates various cultures and is universally used. Tarot cards, crystal balls, copper wires, turtle shells, palmistry, face reading, astrologers, I Ching, fortune sticks, etc. are all available, ensuring that you can choose the one you want. Like business. "
Damn it, it’s weird that you can calculate accurately, it’s obviously a lie!
I was speechless, and I raised my hand to interrupt and ask Lao Sun and the others to leave.
"Don't worry, and our divination results are absolutely accurate. No money is allowed, and you will be compensated ten for every false prediction!"
As if he had read my thoughts, the young boss stopped his smile for the first time and said firmly.
"Furthermore, even if you give me ten thousand courages, I wouldn't dare to deceive the Lord of the Underworld, Mr. Walker, and the current God of Cooking!"
Lao Sun, Mo Guan, and Mr. Zhao glanced at each other at the same time. They all saw the solemn look in their eyes. They each looked seriously at the young boss who was smiling and adding.
I looked calm and stared at the young boss.
Fake!
It must be so fake!
A living person as big as me can't see it, right?
"Oh, yes, and this ordinary man, you are welcome to visit the underworld. I wish you a happy body and mind, dear~"
Kiss you, you big-headed devil!
If you can tell the identity of Lao Sun and the others at a glance, why don't you give me a more eye-catching title! !
My face was expressionless and my heart was filled with sadness.
"I'm not surprised that you can identify me, but how do you know, Old Sun, and this chef god?"
Mo Guan asked casually with a face full of curiosity.
"This is the power of divination. Guest, do you need divination?"
The young boss’s smile never faded.
"Come on, come on, I'll just give you one, just tarot cards. I saw them in a video not long ago. Give me a fortune telling about my career."
Lao Sun said enthusiastically.
"No problem, dear~, thank you for your support!"
"Haha, then I, the old man, can do it too. I can just do a divination with a fortune stick. I can tell how the life of the person I care about will be in the future."
Mr. Zhao was smiling, but he looked a little serious.
"Dear, thank you for your support. Your support is the biggest motivation for our store!"
"Give me the most expensive divination service in your store. Well, let's calculate my life."
"Okay, dear~, please wait a moment."
The young boss's smile grew stronger. He took a piece of paper and wrote down the names of Lao Sun and others one by one. Then he turned his eyes to me and asked with an undiminished smile,
"Then what does this guest want to divine?"
"Ah, I don't need it, I have nothing..."
"Opening bonus, four people traveling together, one person free of charge, dear~, you can do it for free."
There was a flash of sympathy in the young boss's eyes, and then he looked at me with an undiminished smile.
It’s free of charge. I feel a little nervous.
How can I put it this way? Why don't you take advantage of the bastard? Moreover, no matter how you look at it, the boss's asking price cannot be lower.
Thinking of this, I nodded and then said,
"Then I can use any divination method, and then calculate my fortune..."
"Please calculate the marriage for him, thank you."
Lao Sun said calmly.
"No problem, please move aside and wait for a while while I prepare the props."
The young boss smiled and nodded, then wrote the words "Sun Tianchuan, Marriage" on the bottom line of the paper, then turned and entered the room.
At this time, I was surprised. I came in without mentioning my name at all. How did the boss know?
And it’s not just me, Mo Guan, Sun Xingzhe, Zhao Jianhua, the names on the white paper are word for word.
I looked at the back of the young boss and felt that he had become mysterious.
"It's interesting, Lao Chuan, you can't tell, you picked an incredible store."
Mo Guan squinted his eyes playfully, touched the big gold chain around his neck, and said with a casual smile.
"Since Mr. Zhao entered the underworld, the news has not spread at all. This boss, the medicine in the gourd is a bit unusual!"
Lao Sun looked around and saw nothing strange about the surrounding decorations, so he said something meaningful.
"How can my small shop stand up to Mr. Xingzhe's praise? Besides, my family doesn't grow gourds. However, I do have a gourd, but the content inside is not medicine, but wine, dear~"
The sudden voice sounded again, and in the center of the living room, the young boss could be seen smiling brightly. In front of him was a wooden table with a deck of tarot cards, a fortune stick, and a crystal ball on it.
