Blind fortune teller
The incident happened the day after the chemical plant den was raided.
In the Qinglong Gang's stronghold, Brother Hu was cornered by the second in command, who whipped him with a belt and beat him so hard that his body was bruised and his legs and feet were twitching.
Brother Hu was filled with hatred!
He originally wanted to catch a chemistry doctor during the chaotic times and bring him back to improve their technology so as to make a fortune during the chaos. However, who could have expected that this chemical plant would be reported to the police and investigated by the Municipal Bureau!
The second in command threw out an A4 paper with a copy of the evidence on it - a Polaroid photo.
With a cigarette in his mouth, he sat on the sofa and kicked him: "Damn it, no matter if this guy handed it to the police station or the police station, my people could have stopped him and quietly dealt with the goods and the body. Who knew that this bastard would be delivered to Xie Ling! Damn it, the chemical plant has been investigated before we received any news!"
In fact, Jiang Miao just didn't want to reveal his identity. The surveillance cameras in the police station and police substation are still on 24 hours a day. Although he couldn't view current events online, he could still call up the surveillance cameras by replacing the memory card.
Who knows that it would be a blessing in disguise.
He looked grim and put his cigarette in the ashtray: "Don't let me catch who it is!"
Brother Hu lost his job and fell to a marginal position in the organization. Many money-making jobs in the gang did not want to involve him. He was far from being the bully who ran the city and collected protection fees in his previous life.
Moreover, the Qinglong Gang no longer has the chemical plant as a cover, and the goods below have been almost sold out. In the troubled times, they still have to rely on these drug addicts as thugs to expand their territory. Without thugs rushing forward to die, how can the Qinglong Gang continue to run rampant and violent?
After Jiang Miao's interruption, the development of the Qinglong Gang was not as rapid as in the previous life, and its sphere of influence was not as large.
When we came out of the community, the property management behind us announced with a loudspeaker that the electricity usage hours were limited to 12 o'clock in the evening to 3 o'clock in the morning, which was even shorter.
But Jiang Miao was not worried about his electricity consumption so he just listened and forgot about it.
When I passed by the crowd, I heard them sighing: "This is in a high-end community like Lanwan Community. Many circuits that were short-circuited by hail have not been repaired yet. Now the temperature is getting higher and higher. When the day comes when our community also loses power, we will have to endure hard times."
Jiang Miao lowered his baseball cap and left quickly. Human civilization was fading away in the collapsing world, and survival of the fittest had become the only law of survival.
In fact, high temperature is not the most terrifying and difficult of all natural disasters. As long as you want to survive, no matter what means you use, as long as you work hard, it is not difficult to do it.
But Jiang Miao would not say a word about these words, because they were of the same kind, doomsday competitors. If others accepted their fate and lay low, she would have more resources in the future.
More and more people come to the commercial street to exchange supplies. Almost every stall is surrounded by people. Everyone wants to squeeze in to see if the stall has what they need. With so many people, there are more robberies and crimes. The municipal department has to send people to maintain order. Electric batons are not effective, and guns are required.
On the market, daily consumables such as rice, oil and salt are in short supply. Nowadays, a gold ring can only be exchanged for a bag of salt.
After the nuclear leak caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011 led to the contamination of seawater, which triggered rumors that salt was inedible, someone stockpiled a whole room of salt and there is still a lot left. That person's stall was surrounded by customers who came to exchange salt, and it was so crowded that no one else dared to set up their stalls there.
Jiang Miao thought that he would never be able to finish all the salt in his space in several lifetimes, so he did not join in the fun. However, when he passed by that stall, he was attracted by a peculiar little stall next to it.
The dark blue cloth was spread on the ground, looking gray. On it was only a white ceramic bowl full of rice and a few copper coins and tortoise shells. The stall owner was sitting on the ground very casually. He looked young, wearing a sleeveless jacket and shorts, with a pair of old cloth shoes on his feet. The most eye-catching thing was the pair of blind man's sunglasses on his face, with round frames, which was very much in the style of the Republic of China.
A blind man can still tell fortunes in the end times? He is also a talent.
Just as he was about to leave, Jiang Miao saw out of the corner of his eye someone furtively coveting the bowl of rice on the broken stall. Just as he was about to touch the edge of the bowl, the blind man took out a ruler from his bosom and slapped the person's hand.
The thief saw that stealing secretly failed and thought of robbing openly, but the ruler seemed to have eyes and hit him accurately every time!
She was so angry after being beaten that she couldn't help but lift his glasses: "Fuck, you are pretending to be blind and lying to me, believe it or not, I will tear down your stall!"
The fortune teller raised his head and looked straight at me. His beautiful eyes had a patch of white in the middle, with only a small, immovable black dot in the center. It looked terrifying.
"Although I have been unable to see for many years, at least I have not lost my skills. Your steps are unsteady, your breath is impatient, and your moves are slow. I don't even need to stand up to teach you a lesson."
"Fuck." Encountering a tough guy, the man gritted his teeth and left in anger.
"Stop!" The blind man counted with his fingers and said, "Not good! Not good! You will have a bloody disaster within three months!"
Jiang Miao stood with his arms folded, watching with great interest. The thief looked thin, with dark circles under his eyes. If the high temperature continued like this, he would probably die in more than a month. However, everyone was now looking forward to the early arrival of autumn so that they could return to their old lives after the temperature dropped. But who could predict what would happen three months later?
Is this person really blind, or is he pretending to be blind and deceiving others?
If it were in the past, she would definitely say it was feudal superstition.
But after rebirth...it's better to believe it than not to believe it.
The fortune teller babble on and on: "...I just need a bowl of talisman water."
Jiang Miao turned and left.
Talisman water is just water and paper ash. This liar is probably pretending to be blind and wearing colored contact lenses.
Of course Li Chongyu saw the girl on the street.
With his back straight, steps brisk, and eyes clear, the spirit and energy he exudes is totally out of tune with the other people around him!
A rich man!
It's a pity that he left like this.
Jiang Miao walked around the market but still didn't see any trace of the middlemen, so he had to go out of the commercial street and go to the industrial park to have a look.
"Beauty, you're alone."
Even if Jiang Miao covered herself tightly, she still couldn't stop the sex-hungry ghosts from coming to cause trouble, so so many vicious incidents happened, and it had nothing to do with what the girls were wearing.
Jiang Miao glanced at the environment of the alley. It was pitch black all around and there were dense dead branches on both sides. Even if people upstairs wanted to look down, they would not be able to see clearly.
Trainer number two is here.
Jiang Miao turned around and took two steps back as if in fear, wanting to go to a deeper place for easier action. This place was not far from the commercial street, and if he fought it might attract the security there.
"Don't come over here."
Jiang Miao spoke with a blank expression and trembling words, which attracted the big man at the entrance of the alley to lean in: "Fuck, this voice is so fucking soft! My bones are weakened by it!"
The big man in front of him laughed and said, "Go away, this treasure is mine, if you want to eat it, wait for the next round!"
There are actually two people?
Retreating to a suitable position, Jiang Miao did not dare to underestimate the enemy and held the Huaying Sword behind him: "Please, don't come over."
She really had no experience in acting coquettishly, she just kept turning over and over and kept saying "don't come over here, don't come over here". Her acting was so bad that Jiang Miao couldn't bear to watch it herself. Fortunately, the two people on the other side were stupid and didn't suspect anything.
The person in front of him pounced on him and tried to pull him into his arms for a kiss: "Hey, I'm coming over here, what can you do to me...ah!"
He stabbed at him with a sword, but he spotted it and dodged it. Seeing that he was about to rush over again, Jiang Miao kicked him away. The man rushed over too fast and lost his balance and fell to the ground. People outside the alley saw their companion fall and walked in with a sneer: "Fuck, you can't even handle a girl, and you still brag to me?"
"Damn, this woman has a long knife!"
"What?"
The man ran over faster and surrounded Jiang Miao with the big man who had fallen and stood up: "You stinky brat, grandpa is coming...ah!"
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Miao, a ruthless man with few words, drew his sword quickly and cleanly without using any skills, not giving his opponent any chance to escape, and directly cut his opponent's arm.
Seeing this, the other person immediately came over to grab the weapon, but she would not let him succeed. She immediately bent down to avoid it and turned around and slashed at the back of her shoulder with another sword, causing blood to spurt.
A moment later, both of them were injured.
They were neither prisoners nor desperadoes, so when they saw the situation was not going well, they naturally slipped away without even having time to get up and run with their companions.
However, the wounds on his body were not shallow. The hospitals were closed at this time, so how to treat the wounds was a big problem. Lust is like a sword hanging over one's head. After committing crimes together for several days, they met a tough guy.
Don't chase a desperate enemy. Jiang Miao's two cuts were deep. If he is not treated in time, it is only a matter of time before he gets infected and festered under such high temperature conditions.
The Huaying Sword dripped and splashed blood. Jiang Miao took out disinfectant to rinse it, and also used the water to wash away the bloodstains on the ground in the alley.
"You are, the smoke from the cooking stove?"
“…”
Jiang Miao looked up and saw the blind man standing at the entrance of the alley with a piece of rag rolled up in his hand and a cloth bag slung across his back. The man had taken off his black sunglasses, and his eyes, which were clearly black and white, did not look scary at all. It was indeed beauty contacts.
“I don’t know him.”
Hearing the denial, Li Chongyu was very angry and excited: "How come you have the Huaying Sword if you are not Cuiyan Miaomiao! He bought this Huaying Sword from me. At that time, he spent a lot of money to buy this sword and said that he liked it very much and would never give it away easily!
He remembered how the girl had quickly put away her sword: "What have you done to Cuiyan Miaomiao? Did you kill him to get the sword? Stop right there and don't leave, or I'll call the police!"
Jiang Miao frowned, so noisy.
Wherever the sword pointed, there was instant silence.
"I bought the sword. It has nothing to do with you."
It was not convenient to take back the space in front of others, so Jiang Miao could only use the backpack as a cover to take out a thin long black cloth, and wrapped it from beginning to end until it could no longer be seen in its original shape and only looked like a stick, then he walked around him and walked out of the alley.
Ever since the high temperature, fewer and fewer people have come to the Taoist temple to seek fortune-telling. With fewer pilgrims, there is naturally no food to eat. Several senior and junior brothers in the temple have gone down the mountain to survive. He was the last one to leave the temple. He has not eaten for two days and has not drunk water for one day. He is in urgent need of business.
He licked his dry lips and said, "My name is Li Chongyu, my online name is Yijian Xiaoyao. If you know Cuiyan Miaomiao, please tell him a message. I also have a bow and a crossbow and hidden arrows. Do you want to buy them?"
At the alley entrance, Jiang Miao stopped walking, turned around and said very sincerely: "I am Cui Yan Miao Miao, I want to buy it."
