after the car drove past three bus stops, fang shan suddenly asked the driver, ” uncle, when do you guys drive a car? how often do you maintain this car? ”

the driver had been driving for many years and had met people who liked to ask questions. it was not as if he had not heard the question that fang shan had raised before. the driver smiled kindly and said, ” they’ll send it for repair every month. the company pays for it anyway. ”

“so it was repaired last month?”

” it’s not last month. our car was just repaired yesterday afternoon. ”

the driver glanced at fang shan and asked him, ” why, little brother, are you worried that our car is not safe? our binjiang city’s rental cars have just been changed, so we’re all driving the new volkswagen. it’s safe!”

fang shan smiled and nodded, but his heart felt like it was being squeezed tightly by a hand, and he felt suffocated.

although fang shan said that he did not believe in the charlatan’s words, when it came to this, he was still afraid of death. fang shan suddenly said, ” i remember, i have a friend waiting for me in front. uncle, can you put me in front? i’ll pay 30 yuan. ”

the driver and the couple didn’t say anything after hearing what he said.

fang shan took out the money. before he got out of the car, he looked at the couple and the driver. he wanted to tell them that something might happen to the car and to get them out. but even if he said it, they wouldn’t believe him.

fang shan gritted his teeth and still reminded them, ” when i came here just now, i met a fortune-teller. he told me not to take the car with the number ending with 83. he said that there would be an accident. do you guys want to get off the bus with me?”

hearing fang shan’s words, the driver’s expression changed and he said in a bad tone, ” how can you believe in superstitions at such a young age! ”

the couple glared at him and said, ” what’s wrong with you? don’t you know how to talk? ”

fang shan shook his head and got out of the car.

as soon as he closed the door, the driver drove away. fang shan stared at the car for a while and saw that the car was at a red light and was waiting for the green light. he had just turned around and taken a few steps when he suddenly heard a few loud clanking sounds behind him.

his heart felt as if it had been hammered a few times.

fang shan’s entire body shook. he heard someone shouting that there had been an accident. he looked back in disbelief and saw that the car that had just picked him up had overturned and fallen in the middle of the intersection.

he also saw an arm sticking out of the window. he couldn’t tell whose hand it was, but judging from the seat in the car just now, that hand should be the driver’s.

fang shan panted heavily and walked to the intersection with his weak legs.

someone at the scene was calling the police, and someone was checking the situation in the taxi.

fang shan heard someone say, ” it’s so tragic. i was about to cross the road just now when i saw the taxi across the road getting ready to cross the green light. who knew that at this moment, an off-road vehicle would crash into us at a high speed? that speed was probably more than 200 km/h. was the driver drunk?! ”

fang shan’s breathing became heavier.

the youngster’s young and handsome face was as white as a layer of powder, without any color.

fang shan watched as they dragged the driver and the couple out of the car. the driver and the boy were both dead. only the girl was still alive. she was crying in the middle of the road.

after crying for a long time, the girl looked up. her head was bleeding and she suddenly noticed fang shan in the crowd.

their eyes met, and the girl’s face turned even paler.

fang shan stood where he was. when his legs were not so weak anymore, he ran towards fraud street. when fang shan arrived at the place where he had seen the young quack, he realized that he had already left.

he noticed a pool of red blood on the ground.

fang shan asked an old fortune-teller beside him, ” this old man, the young fortune-teller who was sitting here just now, has he left? ”

“you mean ah ming?” the old man pointed at the pool of blood on the ground and said, ” more than ten minutes ago, ah ming, who was playing with his phone, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. i saw him wiping his mouth, then packing up and leaving. he probably went home.”

fang shan was shocked. ” he didn’t even go to the hospital when he vomited blood? ”

” it’s an old problem. i’ve seen him vomit a few times. ”

fang shan’s opinion of the young man had changed greatly. he gave the old man a phone number and said, ” this is my number. please give me a call the next time you see him. ”

the old man extended five fingers.

fang shan was stunned. ” what do you mean? ”

“five hundred dollars, it’s a tip.”

they were all smart people.

fang shan took out the money willingly.

he didn’t go to school that afternoon, but he didn’t tell his friends that he almost died. fang shan returned home and slept soundly for the entire day. he only went to school on the third day.

he had been waiting for the old man’s call. on the fifth day, which was the weekend morning, he finally received the old man’s call.

“ah ming is here.”

the other party hung up after sending the message.

at that time, fang shan was playing cards with a few friends. among his friends, there were adults in their 20s who were working, and there were also high school students. when he received the call, he immediately put down his cards and apologized to his friends. he took his coat and drove to fraud street.

in the early years, the country had changed the law and stipulated that the age of adulthood was 16. everyone could get a driver’s license when they were 16 years old.

fang shan drove to fraud street. as expected, he saw the young man named ah ming sitting in the same spot as the other day, reading the fortune of a young lady. he was still wearing his mask and hat.

fang shan alighted from the car and walked over with light steps. he heard the young man say to the lady in front of him, ” do you want to hear the truth? ”

“of course.”

the young man said, ” your boyfriend is two-timing you behind your back. the person who has been protecting you is the one you can trust better. ”

the girl was shocked for a moment. her expression was one of surprise, confusion, and suspicion. “are you telling the truth?”

the young man pointed at the four words on the signboard, ” i’m not lying. ”

the girl left after giving him the money. he didn’t know if she believed him.

when his stall was quiet, fang shan strode over and sat down on the stool in front of him.

” counting marriage and studies starts at 50, official career and fortune starts at 60, and life expectancy starts at 500. ” as he spoke, he raised his head and saw fang shan. he suddenly stopped.

seeing that he still remembered him, fang shan asked, ” why is the lifespan of 500? it’s unreasonable for it to be so expensive.”

the young man stared at him and did not reply.

fang shan asked him again, ” you saved my life, how much should i pay you? ”

the young man then said, ” as you wish. ”

fang shan asked, ” how about 5 yuan? ”

the young man was shocked by how shameless fang shan was.

after a long while, he said, ” up to you. ”

fang shan immediately scanned the qr code to pay.

the young man heard his alipay’s notification that he had received a payment. he was about to take it out when he heard a string of messages. he opened it and saw that it was a transfer from a person called’* shan’. he had transferred 50000 each time, and he had transferred 200000.

the young man was stunned by this huge sum of money.
