Chapter 1: Two Copper Coins

Chapter 1: Two Coins

Two copper coins, round on the outside and square on the inside. The blind man gently weighed the weight in his palms, rolled his eyes, recited a string of unintelligible hexagrams, and threw them into the air.

"Ding" The copper coins collided and spun out a butterfly flower. After deflecting for a few turns, they fell down obediently.

The blind man's ears moved, and a withered hand grabbed for the source of the sound. However, he really didn't expect that his grasp would be in vain.

And those two copper coins are now lying quietly in the hands of another person.

"Fortunate God, how is business today?"

The blind man's hands trembled for a moment, and without saying a word, he grabbed the small flag of 'Tiekou Shenshu' beside him and started to run away.

"Don't worry, I'm not a city manager!"

"Then you are?"

"Old man" the man in black put his mouth to his ear.

"Yin Hui? So it's you! Oh, you scared me to death, you scared me to death... You didn't inform me before you came. You just wanted to see my joke, didn't you?" The blind man fearfully stroked his heaving chest.

"Haha" Yin Hui smiled and accepted without further explanation: "How is business?"

The blind man sneezed angrily and said bitterly: "I guess it was you who cursed me. I rushed the urban management from East Street to South Street early in the morning. I just sat on South Street to warm my butt, and then I was kicked out to Sanlitun Street. Okay?

It’s easy for a woman to come to see me and say that I always touched her hands and wanted the old cow to eat young grass. Not only did she not give me the fortune, but she also slapped me in the face, and my old face is still burning to this day!”

"Damn it, all the bad luck I haven't had in eight lifetimes has happened to me alone."

"Damn, it's so miserable? Why don't you smoke a cigarette to calm down the shock?" Yin Hui took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one, and flicked it.

The blind man picked up the cigarette, put it to the tip of his nose and smelled it: "What brand is it? Don't fool me with the big front door!"

"Don't worry, it's an authentic soft panda!" Yin Hui lit him up with a lighter with a smile.

The blind man didn't refuse, he just squinted his eyes, crossed his legs, and puffed out the smoke as if he was enjoying it.

"Now can you answer my question?" Yin Hui wiped her nose.

"explain!"

"Tonight's hexagram!" A truck roared past Yin Hui, and the strong wind caused piles of gold and silver paper money on the ground to fly everywhere.

"Look at my two copper coins..." the blind man said calmly.

Yin Hui understood and slowly spread his fingers: "Both are opposites!"

The blind man sighed slightly: "On July 15th, it is forbidden to get married, travel, and wear red clothes. All things are not suitable!"

After speaking, he touched the stall with his hand and picked up the radio that accompanied him day and night: "The following is our consultation. It is reported that there have been many murders in our city in the past week. The criminals' methods were cruel and their targets were

Most of them are single women, and they are now suspected to be immigrants from other places. The police are currently involved in the investigation, please pay attention to your safety."

"Pa" Yin Hui reached out and turned off the radio switch: "He hasn't left yet?"

The blind man stroked the goat's beard under his chin: "Well, another one died last night, and it was near here. What, did you find anything?"

"Nothing!" Yin Hui also lit a cigarette and sat on the side depressedly: "I have to say that this guy is hiding very deep."

"And you?"

"Me?" The blind man smiled and nodded. Seeing this old guy acting like this, Yin Hui's eyes immediately lit up and she quickly grabbed his arm: "Say it quickly!"

"The rest!" The blind man spread his hands, not seeing the rabbit but the hawk.

"Half?" Yin Hui asked tentatively.

The blind man shook his head.

"June 4th?" Yin Hui frowned.

The blind man continued to shake his head.

"Q3?" Yin Hui's voice trembled a little.

But the blind man still shook his head.

"Then how much do you want?"

"It's all mine!" the blind man smiled.

"Deal!" Yin Hui gritted his teeth and smashed the entire pack of soft pandas over.

"You can talk now!"

The blind man put the cigarette into his arms with satisfaction: "Idiot, don't you smell a faint smell of blood? It's still too late to go to the southeast!"

"Damn it, old bastard, if you didn't tell me earlier, I'll settle the score with you next time!" The words reached the blind man's ears, and Yin Hui had disappeared.

"Hey, tell me earlier, tell me earlier, could you give me a cigarette?" The blind man smiled, packed his things, and slowly disappeared into the night with a fortune-telling flag.

A huge blood-colored full moon hung in the dark sky, reflecting the clouds into a strange black-red color, as if they were a stain of solidified blood.

When the woman came out of the disco, it was already past ten o'clock. The air was humid and had a dull and depressing smell. There were faint electric lights flashing in the thick dark clouds in the sky. It seemed that there was going to be a storm tonight.

A taxi stopped next to her. The driver rolled down the glass, stuck his head out and asked her where she was going. The woman shook her head and walked away.

She was drunk with several bottles of foreign wine today, and her brain was still groggy. The wind outside was very strong, which could help her sober up. Besides, the way home was not too far, and it only took about ten minutes to walk.

Although it was very late at night, the city did not mean to sleep at all. Street lights, car lights, and neon lights filled the streets, turning the streets into a glow.

After walking along the road for about five minutes, the wind suddenly picked up. The willow branches on the roadside were picked up by the strong wind and danced wildly, casting messy shadows on the ground, like the waving hands of a drowning person.

Some faint pink gradually appeared in the originally dark sky, indicating that a storm was coming soon.

The woman thought in frustration: It seems that it will be difficult to get home before then.

Suddenly, she remembered a shortcut. There was an alley just a few steps ahead. Go through the alley, turn a corner, and cross the road to reach home. It would only take three or four minutes. She had already

She knew this road and had walked there once during the day, but the alley was full of trash cans and there was always a rancid smell in the air, so after walking there once, she never walked there again. And the alley

There are no street lights here, so walking at night always feels a little scary. But it's better than being caught in the rain, and it's only a three-minute walk.

Thinking of this, she took two quick steps and turned into the dark alley.

The strong wind blew through the long alley, making a strange "woo-woo" sound, like a cry floating in the darkness. A mouse suddenly slipped past her feet and made a "squeak" sound, scaring the woman into a cold sweat. In the darkness

After walking for a while, the woman began to regret that she had chosen such an uninhabited path in order to take a shortcut.

The sound of footsteps suddenly sounded. Although it was very light, it still did not escape the woman's keen ears.

When she looked back, it was completely dark, but there seemed to be a vague shadow in the darkness.

The woman was suddenly reminded of the serial murder case that has been making a lot of noise in the news these days. It is said that this murderer specializes in killing single women in the dark. Five women have died at his hands so far. It is said that the death is extremely horrific. It must have been before death.

He was tortured a lot, but the police were unable to do anything about this serial murder case. They cast a wide net several times, but they couldn't even figure out whether the criminal was round or square.

The woman found that she began to tremble, no, not because of the night wind, but because of the fear deep in her heart.

She started running so hard. The footsteps behind her also became faster and louder, and it seemed that the people behind her were also catching up. The four or five minutes of walking suddenly became longer, as if it would never end, and a hundred meters away

The twinkling street lights seemed to have turned into stars in the sky, out of reach.

Go faster, faster, faster. As long as you can run under the street light, there will be pedestrians, and you will be safe by then.

The lights were getting closer and closer, and the voices of pedestrians could be faintly heard. The woman felt a little relieved, but soon this feeling was swallowed up by fear. Someone grabbed her long hair and pulled her back violently.

, the whole person was forcefully pulled to the ground.

"Help..." Before she could cry for help, a cold hand sealed her mouth.

Lightning flashed in the sky, instantly illuminating the woman's panicked face, and then thunder rang out, drowning out the sound of the woman kicking over the trash can as she struggled.
