As a result, his butt became one of the top ten unsolved mysteries of the Accounting Department of the University of Finance and Economics, leaving behind an endless legend.
Qin Guan finished his class under heavy pressure and waited for Wang Lei in his dormitory. That night, Ye Dong would carry out his confession.
More and more new members were appearing on the confession forms. First, he had cheated Qin Guan and Wang Lei on the reception of freshmen. Then, he had provoked Mu Lejiang and Li Jie.
Ye Dong made a big connection among the clubs, saying that in response to the call of the university, there would be a club recruitment activity on campus after the military training for freshmen. Li Jie and Mu Lejiang were in charge of informing all the clubs to participate in the activity.
One of them was the leader of the ballroom dance club, while the other was the backbone of the camping club. If he didn't make use of the ready-made resources, he wouldn't be Ye Dong.
Under the threat of Mu Lejiang and Li Jie, two more names were added to the confession forms. Liu Xiaoyang was the only one left in the dormitory.
Out of love for his classmates, they couldn't leave him alone. Liu Xiaoyang was the only one left in the dormitory. After some discussion, Ye Dong decided to treat everyone in his dormitory to a meal.
When the class was over and all the students gathered, they set off for Gui Street in a mighty manner.
Guǐ Street was located in Dongzhimen, at the west section of the Dongzhimen overpass on the Second Ring Road. There were many embassies around it, which made it convenient for foreign tourists and staff in Beijing to taste the authentic Chinese cuisine.
Every year, Gui Street earned tens of millions of yuan from foreign tourists. There were more than 100 restaurants on the one-kilometer long street, which was so dense that it was hard to find another restaurant in the capital.
That was why Gui Street was known as the Capital's Dining Street.
By the time they got out of the Dongzhimen subway, the sky was already full of stars and the street lamps were shining brightly. Gui Street was a bustling place.
Rows of restaurants and neon signboards shone brightly along the entire street. The group was dazzled and didn't know which restaurant they should choose to eat at.
Liu Xiaoyang, a native of the capital, stood out. He pointed at a restaurant and introduced it to them. "It has to be the Xiaolin Hot Pot Restaurant."
Everyone looked at Liu Xiaoyang, waiting for him to give an explanation. He proudly led everyone inside and introduced, "If you want to know why I recommend this shop, you have to know the history of this street. Do you know what Gui Street used to be? "
"Speaking of which, the capital has always been a very law-abiding city. It's not just the people, even the city is law-abiding."
"You said that the city is a dead thing, how can it obey the rules? Since the Qing Dynasty, the imperial court has always sent troops through the Desheng Gate, executed criminals through the Xuanwu Gate, and the Dongzhimen Gate is specially used to transport wood into Beijing. The rules are very strict! "
"Why does Dongzhimen need to transport timber? That was because the opposite side of the city was an endless cemetery. What was the point of transporting wood? Make a coffin! "
When the few of them heard this, their hair stood on end, and they felt that the entire street had become chilly.
The more Liu Xiaoyang spoke, the more excited he became. His saliva was flying everywhere.
"What's with your expressions? What's going on? Let me continue."
"Naturally, the first morning market was formed within the Dongzhi City Gate. The peddlers selling sundries, vegetables, and fruits would only start peddling after midnight, and they would disperse at dawn. “
`These pedlars were lighted by kerosene lamps, which looked dim from a distance, and there were coffin shops and coffin houses all about. (Coffin houses were formerly known as shops that hired out funerary appliances and supplied men, drums, etc.) It was very creepy. Therefore, this place is called the 'Ghost City'. "
The more Liu Xiaoyang spoke, the lower his voice became. They followed Liu Xiaoyang into the main hall of Xiaolin Hotpot and found a table to sit at.
The seats by the window couldn't share the light of the hall. The only source of light was the neon lights coming through the windows by the street. A few dim beams of light shone on Liu Xiaoyang's face, which was pretending to be mysterious, making everyone feel constipated.
It's not scary at all. Alright, stop beating around the bush and continue!
Liu Xiaoyang felt that the atmosphere was good enough, so he continued, "After the founding of the People's Republic, this place was naturally developed, and the tombs were all flattened."
"It's strange that after the market boom began, many shops on both sides of Dongzhimen Street began to do all kinds of business, but almost all of them lost their coffin money."
"Ha ha ha ha … Even the only state-owned department store had to close down. The evil of this place is really puzzling."
Liu Xiaoyang changed the topic from the history of food to the introduction of folk customs, and then to the legend of ghosts and monsters. Why is the style changing so fast?
He continued in an enigmatic manner, "Later, people found that only restaurants could be successful on this street. Moreover, almost no one visited the restaurants during the day, but at night, they were crowded with people and carriages. It was a prosperous scene … Hahahaha."
Do you know that your smile is really scary? Qin Guan was anxious. He rolled Liu Xiaoyang's leg under the table and urged, "Hurry up, don't talk nonsense. Go on!"
Liu Xiaoyang smiled mysteriously. He waved his hand to beckon the waiter and shouted, "Take my order!"
The few of them were startled by this roar. They glared at Liu Xiaoyang and said, "Don't you know that scaring people can scare people to death? Hurry up and go on! "
They scratched their ears and cheeks as they listened. Liu Xiaoyang took the menu unhurriedly and continued the conversation on the menu.
"As for Dongzhimen, is it like what the local old people said? At night, hundreds of ghosts have to go to the city to eat and form such a prosperous scene? No one can explain it. "
"But the people around here are all old citizens of Sijiu City. They've been born and raised here for so many years. What are they afraid of? They've stripped the clothes off the graves of the dead and turned over the offerings in the mass graves of the old era. This little bit of evil won't scare them at all."
"Due to the formation of the night market, Ghost Street has become a household name in the capital. Of course, many people also see the huge business opportunities here. Ordinary people move here with their families. They can set up a shed and set up a food stall. This street is getting more and more lively at night."
Liu Xiaoyang lowered his voice and said to everyone, "It turns out that the situation in this area is too outrageous. The extra food stalls have blocked the road."
"When the Dongcheng District Government saw this, they thought that it would affect the appearance of the city. They had to take care of it. At night, the urban management officers took action."
