The story of Rose starts with being a brother

Chapter 519 Zhang Wei: My real girlfriend is still in elementary school?
"Huang Feihong?!"

Zhang Wei was shocked and looked the person in front of him up and down, his face full of disbelief.

"Hey, don't misunderstand!"

Huang Huifeng waved his hand and then explained, "It's Huang-Hui-Feng. I have no connection whatsoever with that Baozhilin from Guangdong Province."

Zhang Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief. If Wong Fei-hung looked like that, he would never dare to watch Wong Fei-hung movies again.

"You just said you're some kind of water spirit or some kind of demigod, do you know anything about tomb raiding?"

"Of course!"

Huang Huifeng struck a pose with his hands behind his back, like a master, and then corrected him, saying, "He's called Huang the Half-Immortal Who Divides Gold and Cuts Water; that's what my fellow thieves call him."

"Thief...friend?"

Seeing Zhang Wei's bewildered expression, Huang Huifeng patted him on the shoulder and laughed, "The word 'dao' in 'tomb raider' means 'friend' in 'friends.' Since ancient times, wherever there are people, there is a jianghu (江湖, a world of martial arts and chivalry), and wherever there is a jianghu, there are friends in the circle!"

"Hehe, are all of you tomb raiders possessing extraordinary skills and eccentric personalities?"

Huang Huifeng shook his head and said, "Hey, that's all made up in novels. When you're out in the business, you should always try to make money peacefully. You're like me, it's perfectly normal!"

“That’s true.” Zhang Wei nodded.

But he quickly realized something and frowned, saying, "But how do I know if you really know how to rob tombs?"

"Damn it, do you think I'm a con artist?!" Huang Huifeng exclaimed anxiously. "Do you expect me to find you a grave and dig a hole for you before you'll believe me?"

"Uh...no need for that." Zhang Wei quickly waved his hand, then thought for a moment and added, "Then how can I trust you?"

"Well, my title just now is enough to prove it."

Huang Huifeng resumed his masterly demeanor, shaking his head and slowly saying, "The 'golden division' in my 'golden division and water severing' refers to my skill in determining the location of auspicious sites. The so-called 'golden' is not just gold and silver, but also the golden vein and dragon energy. With these eyes, I can distinguish between the three feet below the ground, which is the gate of life and which is the gate of death!"

At this point, Huang Huifeng glanced at Zhang Wei, who seemed a little lost in thought, then rolled his eyes and walked behind his trolley, opening a cabinet behind the trolley from Zhang Wei's out of sight.

In the corner of the cabinet was a pile of compasses. He first picked up a small one, but after glancing at Zhang Wei, he put it back and picked up a large compass next to him.

"Hey bro, take a look at this."

Huang Huifeng took out the compass and brought it close to Zhang Wei.

"This item is the magic weapon of our tomb raiding lineage for locating burial sites. It is called the 'Qiankun Dingsha Pan'. With it, no matter how difficult the tomb is, we will not be afraid of not finding the gate of life or the dragon vein."

"Really?" Zhang Wei examined the compass curiously. "How much does it cost?"

"Unbeatable price, only 888!"

"Even after a price drop, it's still so expensive?!"

Zhang Wei was shocked: "Forget it, I'm not a tomb raider, I was just curious. Besides, is this broken plate worth that much money?"

"That's not what I meant by 'broken plate.' The compass is good, absolutely worth the price." Seeing that he was having second thoughts, sales master Huang Huifeng quickly coaxed, "Don't let its unassuming appearance fool you; its origins will shock you!"

"This plate was personally consecrated and refined by my grandmaster's grandmaster at the Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain on a certain Jiazi day of a Jiazi year at the hour of Zi. It absorbed the essence of the Big Dipper and the nourishment of the Tianchi Lake water. Pure Yang energy surrounds this plate, and ordinary evil spirits will retreat when they sense its aura!"

Seeing the change in Zhang Wei's expression, Huang Huifeng quickly said, "Of course, if you think 888 is too expensive, then..."

"888 it is!"

Zhang Wei suddenly interrupted him.

"Ok?"

Huang Huifeng was taken aback. He was about to say that eighty-eight would be fine, but since that was the case, he immediately changed his tune and said, "Okay, brother, you know your stuff!"

Zhang Wei stared intently at the compass and asked, "You're saying this compass was made in Changbai Mountain?"

"Of course!"

Huang Huifeng, who seemed oblivious to the concept of guilt, nodded in affirmation without even blinking.

"Oh, that's good, that's good."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wei was overjoyed and immediately started taking out his money.

Seeing this, Huang Huifeng's eyes lit up. After taking the money and handing the compass to Zhang Wei, he coughed lightly and asked, "Young brother, you have a special fondness for Changbai Mountain?"

"Uh, it's alright." Zhang Wei naturally wouldn't mention that his girlfriend was doing archaeological work there, and that he was planning to go as well.

However, his expression betrayed him.

Huang Huifeng knew there was a big fish to catch, so he said, "Young brother, don't be in such a hurry to leave, I haven't finished yet."

"What else?"

"I am known as Huang the Half-Immortal of Dividing Gold and Cutting Water. I have only talked to you about dividing gold. Now I will tell you about cutting water."

Huang Hui straightened his clothes and shook his head, saying, "In the tomb raiding business, it has always been 'to find the dragon and water, and to obtain water is the most important.' What I mean by 'cutting off the water' is cutting off the water of the Yellow Springs and the water of Yin Sha! There are many hidden rivers and pools of water in ancient tombs, which nurture corpses and evil spirits. With a single talisman, I can sever the pulse of this Yin water, leaving that zombie with nothing to rely on!"

As he spoke, Huang Huifeng took out ten talismans from his pocket.

"Special offer: 88 yuan per sheet."

"Eighty-eight yuan per sheet?!"

"Ha! This is a yellow talisman that my ancestor's ancestor used to nourish the compass with the water of Tianchi Lake and the yang energy of the compass when he was making the compass by Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain. It was then drawn with cinnabar dug from the bottom of Tianchi Lake. It has a miraculous effect on the tombs in Changbai Mountain."

"..."

Zhang Wei's expression changed repeatedly, his teeth clenched, and even the veins on his neck bulged out. Finally, he shakily took out his wallet.

"I bought it."

"Brother, you know your stuff!"

Seeing another deal come together, Huang Huifeng was grinning from ear to ear, but he managed to hold it in and cleared his throat before saying:
"And finally, there's my title as the Fortune Teller Huang..."

"Stop, I think these two are enough. I'm not going to rob a tomb." Zhang Wei put away the compass and talisman and looked at the guy in front of him with a wary expression.

He would never have spent this money if it weren't for Jian Ning.

"Hey bro, that's a superficial statement. Knowledge is always a good thing."

Huang Huifeng, holding Zhang Wei's arm, smiled and said, "My title of 'half-immortal' comes not only from my tomb-raiding skills, but also from my eyes, which can not only locate burial sites but also recognize people and ghosts."

"..."

Zhang Wei's lips twitched, and he said irritably, "Are you planning to gouge your eyes out and give them to me?"

"of course not!"

Huang Huifeng chuckled, then his expression immediately turned serious. He stared at Zhang Wei for a moment before exclaiming, "Oh my god! This is incredible!"

Zhang Wei was startled by the noise and quickly took two steps back.

"What are you doing? Why are you making such a fuss!"

"Shh!"

Huang Huifeng gestured for him to be quiet, then stared at his face for a moment before saying, "Young brother, I see that you have a clear mind and extraordinary bones; you are a tomb-raiding prodigy, one in ten thousand!"

Then Huang Huifeng pulled out a book from his pocket: "I have an ancestral book called 'The Eighteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique,' which is priceless. But I can tell you're a sincere person. This book is destined for you, so I'll sell it to you for eighty-eight yuan!"

"Eighteen characters?" Zhang Wei was taken aback and asked doubtfully, "Isn't it supposed to be sixteen characters? And there should only be half a book."

“Oh dear, that’s just something made up in a novel. Mine is real,” Huang Huifeng continued, “The number nine is the ultimate number, and two times nine is eighteen. My eighteen-character version is the authentic one, and it’s the complete version, not just a half-version.”

"This……"

"Add another book, 'Becoming a Tomb Raider in Three Days (Illustrated Edition)' and another book, 'The Scientific Method of Pickling Black Donkey Hooves,' buy one get two free, a total of eighty-eight. After learning them, I guarantee you'll be able to go into tombs as easily as going home, without any obstacles!" Seeing Huang Huifeng pull out two more books, Zhang Wei's previous hesitation immediately turned into excitement.

Seeing this, Huang Huifeng added fuel to the fire, saying, "Young brother, money is just an external thing; knowledge is the most valuable. You already have a compass and talismans, so you naturally can't neglect related professional knowledge."

"OK then."

I've already spent two big sums, so this extra eighty-eight yuan won't make a difference.

Huang Huifeng was overjoyed to receive the money; this short period of time was equivalent to half a month's sales.

"Young man, you have a good eye. You're the most discerning person I've ever met," Huang Huifeng chuckled. "The peace of the underworld depends on you."

After flipping through the book, which he could barely understand, a few times, Zhang Wei put it in his bag, thought for a moment, and sighed, "Boss Huang, I'm not actually going down into the tomb, it's my girlfriend who wants to."

"Oh? You actually found a tomb raider as your girlfriend?" Huang Huifeng was full of surprise upon hearing this, and couldn't help but cup his hands in a gesture of respect, "Impressive! I admire you!"

“She’s not a tomb raider, she’s an archaeologist,” Zhang Wei corrected.

"Well, it's about the same, the only difference is that one has a license and the other doesn't."

"..."

Having exceeded his sales target, Huang Huihong began to pack up his stall, but at that moment he glanced at Zhang Wei and then stopped what he was doing.

"what?"

Seeing the boss staring at him again, Zhang Wei was really worried that his wallet would be emptied again, so he quickly said, "I'm leaving now."

After saying that, Zhang Wei was about to turn around, but Huang Huifeng grabbed his hand again: "Wait a minute, little brother."

"What else do you want? I'm definitely not buying anything this time." Having spent such a large sum of money, Zhang Wei's heart was bleeding.

"You don't need to spend any money this time. Consider it a reward for your support of my business earlier. Young brother, let me read your palm again." Huang Huifeng said, and after looking at Zhang Wei's face, he directly picked up Zhang Wei's hand and started to examine it, then his brows gradually furrowed.

Unlike when he casually glanced at Zhang Wei's face and hands earlier to make a sales pitch, he now looked at Zhang Wei's face and hands repeatedly, his expression growing increasingly serious.

"strangeness."

"what happened?"

Hearing that it wouldn't cost any money this time, Zhang Wei stopped struggling. However, seeing the other person's expression gradually become serious, he couldn't help but feel nervous.

After muttering "strange" a few times, Huang Huifeng looked up and asked, "Are you sure you have a girlfriend?"

"of course."

A smile appeared on Zhang Wei's face when he thought of Jian Ning, but he quickly looked at the stall owner warily and said, "I won't pay you anything from now on, no matter what you say."

"Hey, don't keep bringing up money. We value fate here."

Huang Huifeng waved his hand and then said, "We are destined to meet today, so I will read your fortune for free."

"free?"

Upon hearing these two words, Zhang Wei breathed a sigh of relief and then said happily, "No problem, you can see."

“I’ve already finished watching it.” Huang Huifeng said seriously, “Young man, forgive me for being blunt, but you can’t possibly have a girlfriend right now.”

"..."

Zhang Wei, who had been smiling, changed his expression upon hearing this and said irritably, "What nonsense are you talking about? Don't I know whether I have a girlfriend or not?"

"That's why I find it so strange!"

Huang Huifeng stared at Zhang Wei's face and hands for a long time: "According to your destiny, you are unlikely to have a marriage line now."

"Pah, pah, pah, who are you cursing? My girlfriend and I are doing great, and we'll definitely get married someday." Seeing this guy acting like a charlatan, Zhang Wei's face grew even uglier.

Huang Huifeng immediately added, "Let me finish. What I mean is that you shouldn't have a marriage line right now, but you actually have one."

"Uh...what do you mean?"

"It means that your current girlfriend is not the girlfriend you were supposed to have."

"..."

Zhang Wei's lips twitched, feeling both absurd and speechless: "Where did I get a girlfriend from?"

“You were supposed to wait more than ten years to get a girlfriend, so you should be a complete bachelor with absolutely no luck in finding a girlfriend right now,” Huang Huifeng said in a serious tone.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wei felt that his intelligence had been severely insulted.

"Damn, I'll be almost forty in a decade or so. You mean I won't be able to find a girlfriend until then? And I'll be looking for a woman who's almost forty?"

“You can’t say that,” Huang Huifeng shook his head. “There’s a saying that goes, ‘As long as you have money, your wife can still be in kindergarten.’ That’s a bit of an exaggeration, but maybe when you’re successful, a young and beautiful girl in her early twenties will come along to be your girlfriend.”

After a pause, Huang Huifeng counted on his fingers and said, "If that's the case, your original girlfriend should still be in elementary school."

"..."

Hearing the charlatan's increasingly outrageous words, Zhang Wei finally couldn't hold back any longer. He flung the man's hand away and shouted angrily, "You damn liar! You're kidding me! You're the one who's in elementary school! My girlfriend is only a few years older than me, and we're doing great!"

Having said that, he was too lazy to argue with the guy anymore and turned to leave.

But Huang Huifeng quickly grabbed his hand and said, "Don't go, you haven't paid yet!"

"Isn't it free? Why do we need to pay?"

Upon hearing this, Huang Huifeng took down the flag next to his stall that read "Fortune Telling and Palm Reading," revealing another flag behind it that read, "Believe it for free, don't believe it for 80."

"..."

Zhang Weiren was stunned. After realizing what had happened, he angrily said, "Damn it, you're trying to rip me off! I'm not paying you!"

"Then just say you believe it, and I won't charge you."

"Does this make a difference to you?" Zhang Wei had never seen such a bizarre charging method before.

However, the stall owner also had a fiery temper, and he retorted, "Damn it, do you think I'm a con artist? We intellectuals have integrity!"

"Pah! I would never curse myself and my girlfriend for eighty yuan! You're dreaming!" Zhang Wei was equally unforgiving.

"Then you pay!"

"Pay my ass!"

"..."

So the two started tugging and pulling at each other. Seeing that he couldn't break free, Zhang Wei quickly pointed behind Huang Huifeng: "Look, a UFO!"

"where?!"

Huang Huifeng turned his head to look, but he didn't see a single hair. At that moment, he felt his hand loosen, and when he turned his head again, he saw Zhang Wei run away in a flash.

"Trying to scam me out of my money? Maybe in your next life!"

"..."

Seeing this, Huang Huifeng didn't pursue the matter further. His expression gradually calmed down, and he chuckled to himself:

"You believe everything that's lying to you, but you don't believe the only thing that's not lying to you."

At this point, Huang Huifeng, who was preparing to pack up his stall, frowned.

"That's strange, are there really people who can change their fate these days?"
