90,000 Years of Longevity

Chapter 177: World

It was getting late at sunset.

The setting sun gave this city another unique beauty.

Sitting in front of the bookstore, Ye Bei's eyes were always very indifferent as if there was no desire or emotion, and there was nothing that could enter his eyes.

But in front of the bookstore, the crowd around them kept increasing.

There were white-collar workers off work.

There were students.

There were also some tourists who came here to travel and prepare to return.

Many people were surrounded on the outer side. Even if they stood on their toes, they could not see the situation inside, but even so, they were all curious and unwilling to leave, and they continued to face the people next to them to inquire about the situation.

"Hey, buddy, do you know what the hell is going on here?"

"It seems that someone is setting up a fortune-telling stall here!"

"Huh? Fortune-telling? Someone sets up a fortune-telling stall here? Why not go to the Fortune-Telling Street?"

"Who knows, it seems that the fortune-teller is still a student."

"Interesting."

"Well, let's take a look first..."

...

In fact, when those people outside were discussing, those who stood in the front were talking more intensely.

"What an arrogant guy who knows the past and the future, is it possible that he is still a god?" An office worker in a suit and a briefcase said with a disdainful face.

"Looks too young, anyway, I don't believe he can tell a fortune." Someone next to him immediately agreed.

The office worker in a suit nodded, "Not only does he not know how to tell fortune-telling, but he is also very stupid. This is next to Peking University. Those who come here are all high-ranking intellectuals. It's possible for him to cheat some old ladies in some other places, but he came to a place with so many smart people instead?"

"Let's see how he makes the fool."

The discussion was too mixed.

As for the young man squatting in front of the white cloth, after hearing these voices, his heart of justice burst out, and he muttered to himself, "Although you are a fellow student, I can't let you deceive people like this... let me not expose you today."

Thinking of this, he raised his head, looked at Ye Bei, and continued to speak, "For fortune-telling, do you want a birthday character? I have my ID card here, um, but if you are not sure, classmate, you should go back and study hard."

In front of the bookstore, Ye Bei's eyes were indifferent as if the people around him didn't exist at all.

"Fortune-telling is fine, but the charge here is fixed. For one person, the charge is 5888." Ye Bei said weakly.

When he said this, his deep gaze fell on the young man in front of him.

The teenagers looked normal.

He had short hair and an average-looking face, in other words, a complete layman.

Had it not been for Ye Bei who wanted to enter and experience this red dust, on weekdays, he would definitely not have anything to do with such a layman, let alone 5888, even if someone traded a country for him, Ye Bei would never even cast a glance at him.

But these people at the scene did not realize the significance of allowing Ye Bei to tell fortunes.

Hearing Ye Bei's asking price, the people around him burst out instantly.

"Damn, the charge is so expensive, boy, why don't you rob people instead?" The office worker in a suit was angry and snarled as if his money was about to fly away.

"5888 Yuan fortune-telling? This is probably the most expensive fee I have ever seen." A student shook his head.

"This guy is not a liar, right?" Someone looked wary.

And the young man squatting in front of the white cloth was taken aback when he heard what Ye Bei said, then his cheeks turned red, but soon he calmed down again, "Classmate, it's impossible to give you money first. But I think if you are very accurate, I will definitely give you money. Instead, if you are fooling around, then you better don't want to get a dime."

"Yes, let's read his fortune first."

"If it is accurate, I will also pay."

"Even in the restaurant now, people eat up first and pay the bill after."

Around, a lot of voices followed.

Those voices questioning Ye Bei were no longer a minority. 

But even so, Ye Bei sitting in front of the door still had no waves on his face.

Those eyes were deep and indifferent and were not affected by this world at all.

He opened his mouth, his voice was very low, but it made people feel that there was no room for negotiation, "It's the cycle of cause and effect, no conditions, if you don't believe it, just leave."

"Ugh!" The young man was taken aback on the spot.

He originally thought it was possible to negotiate and bargain. As a result, the student in front of him seemed to be not giving him any face.

"Liar! You think I'm stupid?" After he froze, the boy's complexion quickly turned red.

Then he immediately stood up, dropped the sentence angrily, then turned around, and squeezed into the crowd behind without looking back.

Those who watched the excitement around didn't expect this kind of result, and they all felt disappointed.

"What the hell?" A girl murmured, she was very dissatisfied.

"That's just it?" Someone shook his head beside her.

There were also people who thought they are smart and look like a wise man, "If that person gives money, he will be stupid! If I were him, I would definitely leave. Do some calculations and ask for 5888 Yuan? Obviously, he's just a liar."

"Correct!"

"Let's go, it's fake here."

"I suggest calling the police or calling the city manager."

As the young man left, the surrounding crowd gradually dispersed. 

Of course, a few people still gathered occasionally, but after seeing Ye Bei's age or asking about the price, they left.

Time flew.

The sun went down the hill...

In the city, countless lights were lit.

The lights flickered, and the pedestrians on the side of the road not only did not decrease but increased.

In front of the bookstore, Ye Bei sat still...

Looking at the passers-by and the guests who gathered and dispersed, his complexion did not change at all from beginning to end, his eyes were deep and calm.

This was the world!

Everything was running continuously according to a certain law.

Many times, the opportunity lied in front of some people...

There were even many people who kept walking by that opportunity back and forth.

But the vast majority of people would choose to give up because they had to pay a small price, or they didn't believe it, and then they would do nothing forever.

How sad…

...

Time was getting late.

Later, those pedestrians didn't even stop at the door of this bookstore, they just looked a little and then left quickly.

When the number of pedestrians on the roadside began to gradually decrease, far away from the street, a figure was slowly walking towards Ye Bei.

The figure was very light.

When that person walked, there was no sound...

The figure stood in front of Ye Bei.

"Donor, can you read my fortune?" The voice was very soft.

Sitting on the wooden chair, Ye Bei seemed to have foreseen that someone would come. He raised his head slightly and looked at the figure. He had seen the figure in front of him before...
