Prophet of Rebirth

Chapter 30 The First Customer

On the west side of the vegetable market in District [-], at a corner near the pig slaughterhouse, there is a square table with a height of half a person. A piece of yellow paper is spread on the table. On the flying side is written "Iron mouth dies", and on the right side is written "Predict the future".

The noon in late autumn always makes people prone to drowsiness. A child is dozing off on the table, opening his eyes from time to time, looking sleepily at the empty road, shaking his head and sighing.

The child was Ye Zhiqiu, and the reason why he suddenly came to the vegetable market to set up such a weird stall was entirely for the sake of a happy life in the future.Ever since he determined the great ideal of being a great god stick, he has been thinking about how to make his name famous. He wanted to make a shocking prophecy to make himself famous, but sadly found that he could only remember what happened. Except for the details of the people around me, I know almost nothing about the major events in the country, so I can only settle for the next best thing. First, let my reputation be like a thunder in this area of ​​​​Qiuhua Town, and then use the help of women to talk to each other. The crazy power of gossip made the reputation gradually erode the entire Xinghe County.With a population of several 10 in Xinghe County, it is more than enough to support this little guy.

The reason why I choose to start a business at this age is because it is more attractive for children to engage in this industry. At the same time, even if I am wrong, others will not care too much. To put it simply, he is doing an internship and accumulating experience.Of course, the main reason is that you don’t need to pay the booth fee to set up your own stall.However, there is always a gap between dreams and reality. The booth I had carefully planned was set up for several days, but no one cared about it. Finally, after reflection, I discovered the problem. Many people did not believe what those charlatans said, let alone Is he a little boy with no hair at all?Why should people believe you? Do you want Ye Zhiqiu to add a horizontal comment "I am a reborn" to the simple things he did?Isn't this a joke?Even if it is added, no one may believe it.This proved once again that Ye Zhiqiu was not the material for doing business.However, unwilling, he still decided to persist for a week. If he was still neglected like before, he could only find another way out.

And today is the last day of the one-week deadline, and if no one comes in another three hours, he can only pack up and go home to spend the summer vacation well.

"Trash monkey, remember, you dare to let me go, and I will clean you up after the guard today." Ye Zhiqiu looked bored when he thought of Ouyang Qiang and others. Originally, he told his friends about his idea of ​​setting up a stall. When they were alone, they still excitedly said that they wanted to help. They helped for a few days, but when they saw that no one was still standing in front of a table, they couldn’t take it anymore because they were restless, and began to find various reasons. He refused, and in the end he didn't even bother to say the reason, so he just absented from work.Originally, Ye Zhiqiu was looking for a few people just to create momentum for himself, but he didn't expect it to be so deserted. In the first few days, there were a few people chatting to relieve boredom, but since the few people stopped coming, he was bored all by himself. Get sleepy by noon.

"Hey, little fortune teller, there is no business today!" As time went by, the aunts selling vegetables all closed their stalls and went home one after another, because the place Ye Zhiqiu chose was the only way to get out of the vegetable market. So there is a lot of people at this time, and every uncle or aunt who passes by Ye Zhiqiu's booth will stop to make fun of it.

Although Ye Zhiqiu's reputation has not yet spread throughout Qiuhua Town, his eccentric actions and funny outfits have made him well known in the vegetable market, so there will always be one or two people who are too idle every evening. Sao people come to tease Ye Zhiqiu, the most important thing is that Ye Zhiqiu is so cute, if he meets those strange uncles with special hobbies, they will definitely abduct and sell him with big white rabbit milk candies.

Facing this kind of ridicule, Ye Zhiqiu could only smile wryly, got up helplessly and prepared to pack up his belongings, and panicked when he thought about the failure of his first business.

"Can you predict the future?" Amidst the many ridicules, Ye Zhiqiu was overjoyed by a remark that was obviously not a joke, "The business finally came, it seems that God still gave me a way out!"

But when he saw the interrogator clearly, his whole head drooped immediately. The person who came was a middle-aged man with a very burly figure. If he only listened to the voice and didn't look at his face, it would definitely make people think that he was a very strong man. He is a peerless hunk, but when you put your eyes on his face, there is a look of dementia in his silly face, the corners of his mouth are always slightly grinning, and saliva keeps flowing out of his grinning mouth.

This person is known not only to Ye Zhiqiu, but also to everyone in Qiuhua Town. His current fame is exactly what Ye Zhiqiu wants.

The passing crowd saw someone at Ye Zhiqiu's booth and surrounded him curiously. After seeing that it was Wang Ersha, everyone laughed. They didn't need to think about it to know that Wang Ersha was here to make trouble, but They really wanted to know how Ye Zhiqiu would deal with Wang Ersha's attack.

"Can you predict the future?" Seeing Ye Zhiqiu wryly smiling and shaking his head but not answering his words, Wang Er asked again with a silly smile.

"Well, what do you want to know?" In line with the business philosophy that the customer is God, not to mention that it was Ye Zhiqiu's first business in so many days, he felt that it was necessary to take it seriously, his expression tightened, and he sat back in his seat.

"Do you want money?" Wang Er scratched his head foolishly and said with a smirk.

"It's free." Ye Zhiqiu said simply.

"You are a good person." Wang Er's silly expression suddenly became extremely sincere, and his voice became serious, as if he had suddenly changed, "I want to know when I will die."

"Hahaha..." The onlookers, including Ye Zhiqiu, were stunned by Wang Ersha's suddenly serious expression and serious voice, but when he asked, everyone laughed.

Ye Zhiqiu didn't smile, life is a serious question, even if the person who asks this question is a fool, it will give this question a kind of sacred light.

"Did you know?" Ye Zhiqiu seemed to feel the urgency in Wang Ersha's tone, he shook his head and swept this absurd feeling out of his mind, and began to quickly search for all the information about Wang Ersha in his previous life. Ersha, formerly known as Wang Shi, was a smelter in the factory before he became insane. After he became insane, his wife ran away with outsiders, leaving behind a ten-year-old daughter to be taken care of by his mother... He was killed on August [-], [-]. He drowned in a small reservoir in the northern suburbs of Qiuhua Town. As for why he ran to such a far reservoir and what he was doing there, no one knows.

"Today is August [-]th, which means that tomorrow Wang Ersha will die unexpectedly." Thinking of this, Ye Zhiqiu couldn't help but feel shocked, whether it was a coincidence or a coincidence, he was a little confused.

"Do you know?" Seeing that Ye Zhiqiu didn't answer for a long time, Wang Er asked again stupidly, his expression still terribly serious.

"Tomorrow!" Ye Zhiqiu's voice was a little heavy, thinking that a fresh life today would disappear tomorrow, he couldn't be happy at all, and he was not at all excited about taking the first business.

"I'm going to die tomorrow, I'm going to die tomorrow." Hearing Ye Zhiqiu's answer, Wang Ersha suddenly laughed happily, and ran out of the crowd excitedly while shouting, as if to announce to the whole world that he was finally freed .

"A fool is a fool. He laughs when he knows he is going to die."

"If you don't laugh, you're still a fool?"

Everyone whispered about the farce that had just been staged, yes it was just a farce, a farce for everyone to chat and fart after dinner.

The crowd gradually dispersed, but Ye Zhiqiu stood in the evening wind and stared blankly at the direction of Wang Ersha's departure, motionless, his whole body seemed to be like a sculpture, and his heart could not be calm for a long time, because Wang Ersha turned his head and flew The moment he ran away, he clearly saw the tears falling from the man's eyes, and he read a sense of relief from this man.
