Taboo Master

Chapter 177 Catch the Thief

South of the city, overpass.

For me, this is a very strange place, but this time, it is different from the time I was looking for Fuyuan Street. As soon as I mentioned this place, everyone knew it, so it went smoothly. I just took a taxi and arrived. Chengnan Flyover.

The driver I met was still warm-hearted and talkative. From his mouth, I learned that the reason why this Chengnan Tianqiao is famous is because this place used to be a big miscellaneous market, where all kinds of teachings and nine streams gathered in the city. , People who set up stalls, performers, singers, shave their heads, and tell fortunes all gather here, just like the old Tianqiao in Tianjin.

Of course, today, most of those various businesses have disappeared. The driver said that over the years, Tianqiao has become a night market, and in those old businesses, there are only a few fortune-tellers who set up stalls all day long. Sitting in the shade of a tree, with legs crossed, drinking tea, cheating two pocket money.

When I heard this, I thought silently, fortune-teller, this profession should be more in line with the characteristics of an onmyoji. Liar, but Mr. Yang Hongxian clearly stated in the letter to me that he asked me to come to Chengnan Tianqiao to look for it. Could it be that the onmyoji I was looking for was actually a fortune teller?

Well, a fortune-teller counts as a fortune-teller, as long as it is that person, you know, I came to Pingshan City to find him, and it has been a few months in a flash, and this year is coming to an end. I found some clues, not to mention he is a fortune teller, even if he is a junk picker, I will recognize it.

Besides, the big hermit hides in the city, who can say that all fortune tellers in the world are liars?
I thought, there must be a few real experts.

However, when I arrived at the Chengnan Flyover, I was dumbfounded before I got off the bus.I saw a construction sign in front of me, and a big hole had been dug on the ground. All pedestrians and vehicles passed through the narrow road on the other side. Obviously, construction was going on here.

I asked the driver suspiciously, what is this doing?The driver said, isn't this an underground civil air defense project? In the future, underground shopping malls and passageways will be built.

I thought about it and asked him, when did this start, and where did those people under the overpass go?
The driver said that it has been more than half a year. As for those people, they have all dispersed. Who will inquire about those people? Maybe they will come back when the construction is completed in the future.

I couldn't help feeling very annoyed, and asked him again, what kind of project is this, and when will it be built?
The driver is like a know-it-all, told me, two years later.

I was immediately discouraged, two years later, mother, I will have graduated from college by then, no no no, I can't afford to wait.

Alas, I was depressed for a while, I finally got a clue, but another project was messed up.

The driver saw me sitting in the car in a daze, so he asked me, are you going to get out of the car or not?

I just came back to my senses, and after thinking about it, I asked him if he knew if there was one named Situ Yun among the few people who set up a fortune-telling stall here.

This time, the driver didn't know about it. He shook his head and said that he had never been a fortune teller, and he didn't believe in that stuff. Besides, as far as he knew, these fortune tellers who set up stalls had no names, they were nothing more than called A tall blind man, a crippled Guo, Liu Banxian and Wu Yixian for the more powerful ones, how could such elegant names come from Situ Yun and Sima Guang.

I couldn't help but smile bitterly, it seems impossible to learn more from him, but I am also very grateful for his half-day driver and tour guide, took out 50 yuan and handed it to him without asking for change , so he opened the car door and walked down.

Anyway, I arrived at Chengnan Flyover, so I have to take a walk anyway, take a look, look for it, maybe I can find some clues, I always feel that life is about persistence, until the real last moment, forever Don't give up easily.

Along the side of the road, I walked forward slowly, aimlessly, and there was a dilapidated small bluestone bridge next to it, which was in the middle of the road, and this road looked very old, paved with bluestone, It looks very old, but there is a sense of vicissitudes of time.Looking ahead, a large pit was dug in an open space, and several machines were working inside, making deafening roars.

I feel a little emotional that these ruthless years will pass away one day. Standing under the overpass, I seem to see the bustling scene here many years ago, the noisy market, the crowds, all kinds of businesses, and all kinds of people. yell.

But today, those people have passed away, only the old street flyover, although it still maintains the appearance of the past, but the former flyover square will soon be replaced by modern civil air defense projects, and the open-air market will also change. Into an underground shopping mall.

And on the flyover next to me, there was actually a red, big demolished word, and a red circle drawn. Obviously, this is also a building that is about to be demolished and abolished.

Maybe it's an occupational disease, but I suddenly became interested in this Kaizi. I stood by and looked at it for a long time, and couldn't help shaking my head, thinking to myself, although I am a good taboo teacher, I can't write this Kaizi.

No, I can write it, but it doesn't work.

Think about it, if someone writes a character, no matter what kind of building it is, whether it is a century-old house or a thousand-year-old temple, it is inevitable that it will be demolished. Well, you have to be fined.

Besides, when I write, I have to be sneaky and covert. People's handwriting is so bright that it's scary to watch, and no one can afford it.

I sighed, this word and that word, I think, this word splitter is the most powerful in the world, where there are ruins, it is more effective than machine guns and cannons.

After thinking wildly for a while, I walked forward again, thinking in my heart, to see if there is any stall on the side of the road, go over and ask, since I have this clue, I have to follow this line to find it anyway, After all, Pingshan City is only this big, so I don't believe I can't find it.

But it seems that there are really no stalls here, even the sidewalk is half occupied, it is very narrow, crowded, and after a few steps, let alone a stall appeared on the side of the road.

But I was discouraged before I fell down. This is an old lady with white hair and a stooped body, sitting on the ground, with some needles, threads, socks and insoles in front of her.

I originally wanted to ask, but after I said a few words, the old lady couldn't hear clearly at all, her ears were deaf, and I couldn't help it. I guess she was so old, it was useless to ask, but I couldn't bear to just leave. So I squatted down, took out my wallet, and thought to just buy a pair of socks. The old lady is not easy, she looks like she is over 70 years old, and she has to set up a stall to make a living.

I picked up a pair of socks at random, and was taking out money from my wallet, when suddenly a large group of people rushed behind me. Squeeze, I didn't pay attention, I was suddenly squeezed and staggered.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a person next to me suddenly made a lightning move, snatched the wallet from my hand, and then ran away!

I rely on!I was stunned for a moment. I have never encountered such a thing when I grow up. At least the thief is a bit shy. This guy just robbed it directly? !
"Catch the thief..."

I screamed heart-piercingly, and then chased after.

I saw the thief and robber in front of me swimming through the crowd like a fish, running very fast without slowing down at all, and none of those people dared to catch him, so they all dodged. He stumbled, but the thief dodged it lightly, his figure crossed left and right in the crowd, and disappeared in front of him in the blink of an eye.

This guy is not bad at escaping, I immediately became ruthless, I was the champion of the school long-distance running team since I was a child, and now I dare to jump from the third floor without blinking an awesome person, you dare to steal my wallet?seek death!
I squeezed out of the crowd in three or two steps, and saw that guy not far ahead, running happily, so I ducked down, lucky, and started to catch the thief!
