From the bathhouse to the hotel, you have to pass an overpass. The location of the overpass is not prosperous, but the flow of people is huge. On the overpass, there are many people who set up stalls on the left and right sides to make a living, such as selling CDs, buying socks and selling daily necessities.
Even Lin Xi saw that someone was sitting on the ground on the overpass, pulling a piece of cloth in front of him, drawing a big eight diagrams in the middle, and writing various fortune telling terms on the rest of the place. It seemed very professional. It was obviously used to attract customers to do fortune telling.
In fact, the theory of fortune telling itself is not a feudal superstition, but excessive belief in fortune telling has become a feudal superstition. Since the founding of the people's Republic of China, we began to crack down on feudal superstition. Although it has achieved good results, it has not been completely eliminated.
Why? We should know that the history of feudal superstition may even be longer than that of the Chinese nation. The influence of thousands of years of history, especially in a short time, can disappear. Even today, in some remote mountainous areas, people prefer to believe in feudal superstition rather than seeing it with their own eyes and Science, let alone more than ten years ago!
Moreover, in Lin Xi's time, no matter which city it is, the overpass is always the most popular place for fortune tellers. Often, there are more than ten fortune tellers under one overpass. I don't know if those fortune tellers have real talent and learning, but they live a comfortable life. They do business when they have business, and they brag and play chess when they don't have business. They can make people happy Envy death.
What surprised Lin Xi was that the fortune teller sitting on the pony was about forty or fifty years old. He combed his hair meticulously and even put on wax. He was quite stiff in his suit and shoes. He didn't seem to have the appearance of the fortune teller he had imagined.
So that Lin Xi secretly speechless, now fortune teller, also began to follow the international standards?
What's more, at that time, the fortune teller was telling a woman's fortune with a cigar in his left hand, and then he put his elbow on his knee with a notebook under him.
In his right hand, he wrote down a series of numbers in his notebook with a pen. Every time he wrote a few numbers, he would explain them to the corrupt women. Then he took advantage of the gap to smoke a cigar. After swallowing the clouds, he continued to write down new numbers in his notebook, explaining them to the women again and again.
Let's not talk about the real cigar or the real talent of the fortune teller. Lin Xi can't laugh or cry just because of his present style. People believe that he is a fortune teller or even the boss.
Standing in front of the fortune teller, Lin Xi couldn't help shaking his head. Although the fortune teller was right, in Lin Xi's opinion, it was just something to deceive people.
The old man taught Lin Xi the method of fortune telling, although it is not common, or even a unique secret, but he also heard the old man say that the method of fortune telling can never be separated from its origin, not like the fortune teller he saw now, who can't even get round himself, so that even women began to doubt him.
The weather in April and may is getting longer and shorter. Even though it's already five o'clock, it still doesn't have the meaning of dusk. The sun hanging far away from the sky is still far away from the end of the curtain.
"Fifty yuan, as long as fifty yuan ago, you can't buy it at a loss, and you can't be fooled. Just guess right, give 100 yuan of hard work immediately, and I'm going to drive away"
Lin Xi, who is about to finish the overpass, suddenly heard a loud noise, one of which was obviously high, which immediately aroused his interest.
Following the source of the sound, a large group of people gathered at the corner under the overpass and surrounded the square inch place in the middle, so that Lin Xi could not see what was happening in the middle.
What's more, all the people gathered and talked. It was obvious that there was something lively to watch, and what they were interested in and talked about was the lively one in the middle.
"Come on, let's drive the first one, open your eyes wide, let's drive it... No, let's drive the next one"
the high sound aroused Lin Xi's strong interest. He stepped down the overpass and leaned over to the crowd to see what was really busy inside. When he came to the outside of the crowd, he continued to shout high Harmony: "if you don't have the first two, then open the third one again. It must be in the third one."
"look, see, it's under the third bowl. This elder brother and younger brother, I mean what I say. This hundred yuan is your money."
it's not easy to squeeze into the crowded crowd. Lin Xi finally saw the bustle in the middle, which turned out to be a rather high place A thin middle-aged man squats on the ground with a chopstick in his hand. In front of him are three fist sized porcelain bowls. Under the porcelain bowl on the far left, there is a folded red bill.
At the same time, the tall and thin man took out the 100 yuan under the porcelain bowl and gave it to a simple and honest young man in the front of the crowd. He said again, "brother, your 50 yuan just now, plus my 100 yuan, are all yours now. Please help me to be a witness. My game here is absolutely foolproof."Maybe I didn't expect that I could earn 100 yuan so easily, almost equal to his two-day salary. The simple and honest young man who took the money from the tall and thin man suddenly laughed happily and said incoherently: "witness, I will, I will give you witness"
ignoring the incoherence of the simple and honest young man, the tall and thin man took it out of his pocket One hundred yuan. After folding skillfully, throw it under the three porcelain bowls again and fasten all the three porcelain bowls.
But this time, the tall and thin man didn't rush to move on. Instead, he used his chopsticks to tap on the porcelain bowl in the middle, making a melodious sound of "Ding Ling", which successfully attracted everyone's attention.
"Dear brothers and sisters, my younger brother is here to thank you for your support. When I come out to play in the world, I pay attention to the rules and integrity. Maybe some older brothers and sisters are later and don't know the rules of the game, so in order to be honest, my younger brother will tell me the rules of the game again"
speaking of this, the tall and thin man will put the porcelain bowl in the middle He opened it to reveal the folded red head banknote inside, and then continued: "my younger brother has been running around the world with his master since he was a child, and he has learned the skill of the devil's hand for so many years. I have nothing to do today, so I want to play a game with my brothers and sisters. There is 100 yuan under this bowl. Which brother and sister can see where the 100 yuan is faster than his brother's hand Under the bowl, then my brother will make up 100 yuan. "
When talking, the tall and thin man buckled up the porcelain bowls in his hands, and then changed the positions of the three bowls with his fast hand speed. It was almost dazzling. He could not see clearly which bowl was the hundred yuan.
Some people say it's on the left, some say it's on the right, and some say it's in the middle. As for where it is, no one can be confident and sure. They can only make random guesses.
Looking at his trick, the success attracted everyone's attention. The tall and thin man suddenly showed a proud smile. Without any hesitation, he lifted the left and right porcelain bowls in turn, revealing that the bowls were low and empty.
Then he buttoned up the two bowls and opened the middle one, only to find that the folded one hundred yuan was still under the middle one.
"I said that the bowl in the middle, you still don't believe it, and now you still believe it"
it's also at this time that those who speculate on the middle porcelain bowl immediately show their satisfaction and constantly make self righteous comments, and their words are also full of excitement and eager to try.
When everyone's mood reached its climax, the tall and thin man used his chopsticks to ring on the porcelain bowl again. After the "Ding Ling" sound, he continued: "since this is a game, of course, there must be win and lose, otherwise it will be meaningless. My younger brother can't just lose money. Still, if you want to join the game, you have to press 50 yuan before each start If the brothers and sisters guess right, the money is still yours "
