Chapter 10: Believe it or not
In less than half an hour, Shi Luo heard a lot of gossips that seemed real or fake. Before leaving, Shi Luo said to the woman selling egg cakes: "Auntie, don't take the usual path you usually take when you go back today, change one."
"Hey, little girl, what do you mean?"
Shi Luo didn't respond and left straight.
It was not until the stall was about to close, and the security guard got off work. He also bought an egg cake by the way. The two of them were familiar with each other, so they couldn't help but say a few more words, and then they talked to Shi Luo.
After hearing the woman's words, the security guard swallowed the egg cake in his mouth and advised, "Listen to me, don't ask anything, just do as the little girl said."
The woman's home is in an urban village in the county town. She has to pass through an alleyway to get home. The alleyway is a bit narrow, and the houses and courtyard walls on both sides have been for many years. When she walked to the entrance of the alley, she suddenly remembered Shi Luo's words. The woman's heart suddenly broke out. She took a deep breath and turned the front of the car.
Just as she left the alley, a loud noise came from behind.
However, the wall of the courtyard at the edge of the alley fell. If she had walked this road just now, the wall would have to hit her.
At this moment, Shi Luo was sitting on the bus to Linshi. There is a large station in Linshi that can directly access Beijing.
Because it is not the Spring Festival travel rush, nor the school season or holiday, there are not many passengers on the bus. This time I took a large bus, which is spaciouser than a minibus and has air conditioning.
This is the first time Shi Luo has taken such a big bus in 20 years.
It takes nearly three hours to walk from Xihai County to Linshi.
Shi Luo, who has always been able to calculate and calculate, never expected that she would get motion sick in just three hours.
After walking for more than an hour, she began to feel dizzy and feel disgusted. Her originally white little face turned pale. Shi Luo wanted to roll her eyes at this moment. Her master actually lied to her and said that although it was far away to go to Beijing, there were comfortable cars and air conditioners on the road, and food was sold in the car. They were all delicious food from all over the country, and she told her not to be reluctant to spend money and buy whatever she wanted.
If the old man was in front of her at this time, Shi Luo felt that he might have done something to deceive his master and destroy his ancestors!
I touched the orange that I hadn't eaten in the bag, and I peeled it off and put it on the tip of my nose to smell it.
The oranges taste the best at this time, and they smell a little sour, not astringent, and they are sweet and sour when eaten.
Shi Luo ate two, put the orange peel under his nose, and smelled it all the way.
Even so, she was weak when she arrived at the station. She slowed down for a while before she recovered some strength.
Shi Luo originally planned to take a bus to Beijing, but now he changed his mind.
Linshi is a thousand miles away from Shangjing, and it takes as fast as eight or nine hours to take a bus. She is dizzy now and really doesn't want to take it for that long time.
Fortunately, there is not only a large bus station here, but also a medium-sized train station with high-speed trains at the station, but the fare is more expensive than the car. I counted the remaining money I spent, which was enough to go to Beijing.
However, when she saw the scene outside clearly, Shi Luo was a little confused. She found that the road was being built outside the station. There was originally a bus leading to the bus station and the train station. Because the road was built, the bus took the road. Shi Luo was a little worried. She had just walked around but didn't see that there was a free map for the station to see.
"Are anyone going to the train station? Some people get on the train as soon as possible?" A group of people who were originally waiting at the entrance of the station rushed forward, and Shi Luo was also pushed forward.
Forget it, just get there, taking a car is always cheaper than taking a taxi.
It turns out that the outside is the same as the book says, and it doesn’t cost money to breathe.
But the car has been gone for ten minutes, and no ticket seller charges.
She looked around and saw that no one else was strange. Shi Luo asked the driver, "Don't you charge a fare?"
Through the rearview mirror, the driver looked at Shi Luo and smiled and said, "No, isn't this a road construction outside the station? It's troublesome to take a taxi and take a bus. The station leader will ask us to take you to the train station for free. If you can't go to other places, you still have to take the bus by yourself."
This saved a lot of trouble, and Shi Luo thanked him.
If there is a direct car, the speed is much faster.
Shangjing is the capital, so there are naturally many trains. Shi Luo stood in the ticket hall, looked at the screen on the top, and counted, and there were more than a dozen trips a day. However, there were many trains and many people went to Shangjing. Shi Luo counted and counted, and there were only a few seats left after 11 o'clock in the middle of the night.
This station is not like a county station. It is a sparsely populated area. Looking at the crowds, Shi Luo felt that he was still too ignorant.
She bought the ticket and did not rush to go to the waiting room. Instead, she carried her baggage out of the station.
After finding a cool corner, Shi Luo took out the prepared small wooden sign and wrote the words "fortune telling". She squatted behind the wooden sign and did not rush to attract customers.
There was a rough fortune telling wooden sign in front of a flower-like girl, and the picture looked a little out of place.
There are many people coming and going to the station. Although Shi Luo's squatting corner is a bit off, it still attracts the attention of many people.
Nowadays, fortune-telling is feudal superstition in the eyes of most people, especially young people, who can be called sneering. However, Shi Luo is outstanding in appearance, which makes people unable to help but look at it twice more.
Various eyes fell on him, and Shi Luo frowned.
After following her master for so many years, she should have adapted.
"Girl, are you short of money?" An enthusiastic aunt came over and asked Shi Luo.
In the aunt's opinion, if a girl like Shi Luo comes out to set up a stall, it will definitely be a big deal that can't be eaten.
Shi Luo nodded, she was indeed short of money.
The aunt squatted in front of Shi Luo and advised earnestly, "Listen to the aunt's advice, you are still young, you can do anything, but don't come out--"
The aunt is embarrassed to say the four words "scam and cheat".
She pointed to the diagonally behind and said, "You go northeast, there is a street over there, and there are all kinds of shops on the street, and there are all kinds of shops. Those shops will also recruit people. Go and try it, they will keep you."
Even the aunt knows that in this era, sometimes faces can be eaten as food.
Shi Luo shook his head, "I need cash."
The aunt looked at Shi Luo as if she was looking at the fallen girl. She sighed, "Young people should be down-to-earth."
Shi Luo asked, "Do you want to tell fortunes?"
The aunt shook her head first, then nodded again, but she asked first, "How much does it cost to have a divination?"
Shi Luo raised three fingers.
"thirty?"
"three hundred."
The aunt's face changed and she stood up. Her tone of speaking was not as good as Cihe, "Little girl, you're robbing money."
Shi Luo glanced at the angry aunt, "What I care about is your love and my wish."
"Then can you guarantee that you can calculate accurately?" The aunt looked at Shi Luo suspiciously.
Shi Luo is still not too slow, "If you believe, you are accurate; if you don't believe, you are not accurate."
"Doesn't you say that you didn't say it?" The aunt felt more and more that Shi Luo was unreliable.
She just stared at Shi Luo.
Shi Luo is not guilty.
The aunt felt even more uncomfortable, so she squatted down again, "Then, you can calculate it for me. If it is accurate, I will give you three hundred. If it is not accurate, I will not give you the money."
