Ghost Stories: Only Jjajang, No Noodles
After I left the ghost market, I heaved a sigh of relief. Looking back, I felt that this experience in the ghost market was probably the biggest scene I had ever encountered in my life. But later I found out that I was wrong, because there was also the drought demon. ╠fěi:
After we came out and crossed the river, Cui Zuofei took out his cell phone and started making a call. After he told the other party about our experiences, he seemed to be relieved.
"Who is it that allows you to come and report your work?" I asked Cui Zuofei. I knew that Cui Zuofei was undisciplined and would never be anyone's subordinate.
"It's okay, my boss." Cui Zuofei replied casually.
"Your boss? What do you mean?" I looked at Cui Zuofei and asked, "It seems like you are the boss of Fuzetang."
"You're overthinking it. Do you think I would come to help get the drought bone if there was no benefit? He pays and I do the work. It's a very legitimate business." After Cui Zuofei finished speaking, he ignored me and took us back to Fengdu Hotel. He booked two rooms and we rested.
Cui Zuofei, Yi Xinxing and I shared a room, while Li Mingyao and Qiao Shengfeng shared a room. After entering the room, I simply washed up and checked the time. It was actually nine o'clock in the morning. The sky was the same inside. So much time had passed without me noticing. I was really tired. I can say that I haven't been so tired in a long time. I lay on the bed, closed my eyes, and fell asleep in a few seconds, and I knew nothing.
"Xiaojiu, get up." I felt that I had just closed my eyes for a while, and then I heard Yi Xinxing's voice in my ears. I looked up and saw Yi Xinxing shaking me.
"Brother, what time is it? You called me." I picked up the clock in a daze and saw that it was only ten o'clock. "Old Yi, fuck you, I only slept for an hour and you called me, what does that mean?"
"Xiaojiu, you shouldn't drink. Today is already ten o'clock the next day." At this time, Cui Zuofei was leaning on his bed, smoking.
"What?" I slapped my head. My temple hurt. I still felt very uncomfortable. "Oh, I'm getting old. I used to be able to stay up for four or five nights without yawning."
"Come on, you're such a coward. Look at your eyes, they're as big as a panda's. I guess after four or five nights you'll go downstairs and play mahjong with the King of Hell." Cui Zuofei laughed when he heard it.
When I heard that, I saw a mirror on the bedside table. I took it and looked at it. I was shocked. It was true. It was as black as a panda. But I was still unconvinced and said, "If you don't believe me, go ask the guy next door, Li Mingyao. I was the all-night prince. I could stay up four or five nights without blinking an eye."
"Are you sure?" Cui Zuofei took a puff of his cigarette, smiled at me and asked.
"Well, you have to be sure." I coughed. It was true that I stayed in the Internet cafe for four or five nights, but I also slept in the Internet cafe for four or five nights. Because of this, Li Mingyao, Kaizi and others laughed at me for a long time.
"Okay, we'll ask Li Mingyao later. If he says yes, I'll immediately give gifts and apologize to Brother Xiaojiu." Cui Zuofei said jokingly.
"No, no, look, you're just trying to give me a gift by saying that. You're too tacky. We're all brothers, buddy. I can't accept this gift."
"Oh, now that you put it that way, I have to ask you something. Just tell me what you would bet on if he said it wasn't you." Cui Zuofei immediately became interested and asked me.
"I, if I lose, I'll treat you to breakfast today." Then he thought for a moment and added, "Only noodles, nothing else."
I added this sentence to prevent Cui Zuofei from shamelessly going to eat at restaurants with a few stars on the door. You can't just go into those restaurants with magnificent palace walls and yell, "Waiter, give me a bowl of noodles."
When I thought of this, I felt relieved. I took out a cigarette and started smoking, then picked up my phone and read a novel.
"Knock knock knock..." There was a knock on the door. Cui Zuofei immediately looked at me and said with a smirk, "Wait for the noodles." After that, he got out of bed and opened the door.
As expected, the people who came in were Li Mingyao and Qiao Shengfeng. As soon as Li Mingyao came in, Cui Zuofei asked with a smile: "Brother Li, I heard that you and Xiaojiu have known each other for a long time."
"Yeah, that's right. We have known each other since he just started college." After Li Mingyao said that, he turned around and smiled at me. When I saw me, I immediately blinked at him hard, trying to give him a hint, but he seemed not to see it.
"Yes, young people nowadays like to surf the Internet. I heard that Xiaojiu used to surf the Internet frequently and was even nicknamed the "Little Prince Who Stays Up All Night"?"
"It's true that he often goes to my place, but I've never heard of the all-nighter prince." Li Mingyao answered honestly. Not only has he never heard of it, even I haven't heard of it either. What the hell.
I immediately hinted to Li Mingyao, "Old Li, you forgot that I used to work four or five all-nighters and someone sent me here. It's normal that you don't know. It was my school buddies who sent me here to give me face. You know that I worked four or five all-nighters, right?"
"Yes, yes, that's true." Suddenly, Li Mingyao seemed to recall something and said nostalgically, "It was really good when we were young. I could work four or five all-nighters without any problems. But now it's not possible."
"Lao Cui, what do you think?"
"Why would I watch that? I'd rather watch KuaiBo." Cui Zuofei became discouraged upon hearing that.
I also felt relieved when listening to what Li Mingyao said. He is indeed my best friend. He is different. But then Li Mingyao suddenly remembered something and asked, "I really miss you, Xiaojiu. And you seemed to have caught a cold during those four or five days you slept in that internet cafe, right?"
When I heard that, I immediately swallowed back the words I was about to say: "No, I caught a cold from surfing the Internet for four or five days."
"No, no, I remember you asked me to buy you a quilt. It cost me thirty dollars. I won't be wrong."
"Hehehe. Xiaojiu, let's go and eat noodles," Cui Zuofei suddenly laughed sinisterly.
"It's just noodles, just eat it. Are you afraid you can't afford it?" I pursed my lips. Looking at Cui Zuofei's smug look, I wanted to beat him up.
"Boss, we've covered all the expenses for this stall this morning. Don't worry, we're the ones treating. Please go ahead, Master."
I was standing at the door of the noodle shop at that moment and was stunned when I heard Cui Zuofei's words. Fuck him.
"Brother Cui, I don't think I ever said I wanted to pack it." I said in a low voice.
"What are you afraid of? It's better to share happiness with others than to enjoy it alone." Cui Zuofei shouted as he entered: "First, give us five bowls of noodles with soybean sauce to whet your appetite. Only soybean sauce is needed, no noodles."
