C19 Article 19

The largest carbon market in West Capital had been relocated to the border of West Second Loop and North Second Loop.

Hu Donghai crossed the intersection alone and walked towards the northeast corner. This place was under the bridge of the highway. More and more people were walking around. There was noise coming from the market, and the air was filled with the smell of fish.

Hu Donghai stepped on the wet road. On both sides of the road were all kinds of fish, prawns, crabs, and eels.

A few workers were wearing raincoats. They were carrying water tanks out of the car. The water was leaking out of the water, mixed with the creaking sound of wet boots stepping on the water. The water tank suddenly slanted. Hu Donghai rushed forward a few steps and held it firmly.

"Thank you, Uncle." A worker said.

"Ask someone. Where is Three-Eyed Old Leather?" Hu Donghai asked. The worker shook his head and went back to his work.

Hu Donghai walked forward and asked a few more shop owners. They all shook their heads.

At this time, he noticed a young man who was twelve or thirteen years old. His arms and legs were thin and thin. He squatted by the roadside and looked at the basin. The young man's hands were tucked under his legs. His body was swaying back and forth. He looked drowsy.

Two workers walked over, and with a 'Hua' sound, they poured a pile of fish into the basin. Water splashed onto the youth's face. The youth suddenly widened his eyes and looked towards the basin. A group of carp crowded around, and one of them seemed to have a big temper.

The youth pulled out his hand and stabbed it into the water. His three fingers pinched the fish's head and leisurely fished it out. The fish tail shook violently and water splashed everywhere. The youth hugged the carp and ran away.

"Hey, where's the money?" The shop owner screamed.

"I'll give it to you!" The young man's sharp voice faded into the distance.

Hu Donghai couldn't help but smile. This kid had such a big tone. He was so domineering when it came to snatching the fish. Out of curiosity, he followed. The direction of the young man was the exit of the market. His figure disappeared into a door. Hu Donghai walked closer. It turned out that this was a gatehouse.

Hu Donghai glanced inside. The gatekeeper had his back to the door. He was sitting on a stool, as if he was eating something. The young man threw the fish into the bucket after he entered the house. He said, "Master, I want money." Hu Donghai finally understood that this man was the young man's grandfather.

"Is it Zheng Po Zi's fish?" The gatekeeper asked in a hoarse voice.

"That's right, that's right." The young man sat at the side with his legs crossed. He picked up the game console and started playing. "Zheng Po Zi is a fool. His fish is a good thing, a proper wild thing." The gatekeeper muttered. With a thought, Hu Donghai walked into the gatehouse.

The gatekeeper turned his head. He was in his sixties. He had a round face and a bald head. "Who are you?" The gatekeeper asked.

"Is Uncle Three-Eyed Old Leather?" Hu Donghai found a large mole on the left eyebrow of the man. It could be the origin of Three Eyes.

"What is it?" Three Eyes Old Leather turned around and continued to eat the steamed buns with the carrot and pickle. "My friend introduced it to me. He said that the fish here is delicious."

"What friend?"

Hu Donghai hesitated for a second and said, "Cat Crutches."

"Him?" Three-Eyed Old Leather was stunned for a moment. He turned around with half a steamed bun in his hand. "Is that melon skin still alive?" "He can still live for thirty years."

"Hey, you are an interesting person." Old Leather Three Eyes looked at Hu Donghai from the corner of his eyes. He stuffed the mantou into his mouth and swallowed it whole. Hu Donghai suddenly asked, "Hou Liming also ate fish, right?"

The three-eyed old man choked and patted his chest hard.

The young man who had been immersed in the game stood up and hit Three-Eyed Old Leather's back twice. He said angrily, "My grandpa's throat is thin!"

Hu Donghai quickly went forward to help and was pushed away by the three-eyed old man. The old man looked skinny and his hands were very strong. He pushed Hu Donghai and made him stagger.

Old Leather Three Eyes drank a few mouthfuls of water and recovered his breath.

"You are the one who asked about Hou Liming." He stared at Hu Donghai.

Hu Donghai was stunned. He did not know who had leaked the news, but it also meant that he had found the right place. "Have you seen Hou Liming?" Hu Donghai asked.

Old Leather Three Eyes was silent for a moment. Suddenly, he said, "Eat fish if you want to eat fish. It takes a lot of effort to talk too much. Do you want to eat it or not?"

"Alright, let's eat first."

"After eating the fish, you can ask whatever you want to ask, but you have to make the fish yourself."

Old Leather Three Eyes asked his grandson to bring a bamboo basket. Then, he walked to the front of the bucket. Similarly, he pinched the fish's head with three fingers and fished the fish out in an even more agile manner. The fish tail swayed even more powerfully.

The three-eyed old man suddenly flipped his hand and wiped the fish head with his fingers. Then, he threw the carp into the bamboo basket. At that moment, Hu Donghai saw him sticking a piece of cotton paper the size of a fingernail on the fish cheek. It had a faint medicinal smell.

The carp jumped at the bottom of the basket. Its mouth kept opening and closing.

Three Eyed Old Skin covered a piece of black cloth on the bamboo basket. There was a rhythmic slapping sound coming from inside. This scene was as smooth as flowing water. Hu Donghai looked at it in a daze.

Old Leather Three Eyes handed the basket to Hu Donghai and said blankly, "Take the basket and go to the market." Hu Donghai looked at Three Eyed Old Leather in a daze.

"When the fish is dizzy, you win." "Huh?" Hu Donghai did not know what to do.

"Don't waste time." Old Leather Three Eyes walked out of the door and stood at the entrance of the market, watching the passing cars.

Hu Donghai picked up the bamboo basket, which was still beating rhythmically. There was no water in the basket, so the fish should have fainted very soon. In fact, Hu Donghai had waited for three hours.

Hu Donghai had walked around the market many times, and the fish had finally lost its mind.

At dinner time, the young man ran out to play. There was only Hu Donghai and Three-Eyed Old Leather in the room.

There was a plate in the middle of the table. There was a whole fish on the plate. Hu Donghai smelled a strange fragrance.

He picked up the chopsticks and poked the fish's body. The fish's body broke open. A wisp of hot air drifted out. The fragrance was even stronger. Hu Donghai changed the chopsticks to a different angle. He poked it vertically. It felt a little strange. There was no elasticity in the fish.

He exerted a little strength and cut down along the head of the fish. The entire fish body was lifted like a lid. Only then did he see clearly that the fish bones were covered with a layer of fish skin. The fish belly was empty. There was only a handful of bright yellow things in the middle.

"Fish?" Hu Donghai was stunned. After a long time, they just ate this.

Hu Donghai picked up some fish with his chopsticks and put them into his mouth. After a while, the extreme taste rushed to his brain. He felt dizzy and was caught off guard. Hu Donghai was dizzy from the impact of the delicious food.

Old Leather looked at him and said slowly, "The fish head and fish head are more delicious. But what? "

"Normal people can't afford it." Old Leather Three Eyes' tone turned cold. "What do you mean?"

"There are some things that can't be bumped into." Three-Eyed Old Leather turned his gaze to the plate.

The fish head was intact. Hu Donghai had to try it no matter what. Besides, he had been carrying the bamboo basket for three hours before he had gotten these things. He should be rewarded for what he had done.

Hu Donghai took a bite of the fish head and then ate the fish head. He was about to ascend to immortality!

Suddenly, he felt his limbs go numb, and his brain went crazy. With a weng sound, the world turned upside down.

He shouted in his heart, "Not good!" and tried to stand up with all his might, but his vision turned black. He supported himself on the table, gritted his teeth, and straightened his back, but his body slipped down. With a plop, he fell to the ground. He didn't know anything.
