Standing in front of No. 79 Lao Fengxiang Street in the town, looking at the house in front of him, he was a little speechless.

Lao Fengxiang Street is a group of buildings in the Republic of China, with pink and white houses with inner courtyards.

The area has never been repaired, and the spacing between the stones and bricks on the road has widened, and when it rains, there will be some water, but the stones on the road have been polished to a great extent.

Most of the houses here are no longer inhabited, the bricks and tiles of the roofs are already a little dilapidated and falling, the gates are gone, and the courtyards are overgrown with weeds.

The most popular businesses here are fortune telling and asking gods, and some sell talismans and herbs.

All the old people set up a simple small wooden flat table on the side of the street, on which were placed hexagrams, and next to a string of ancient coins and dried chicken feet tied with red string.

And some businesses such as asking God are all based on mutual introductions, and they will not shout in public.

The incense burner is set up, the incense is poured on it, and then a string of performances will be carried out by the spirit person the customer wants to see, and in the dark and narrow room, the two will talk face to face until the incense is burned.

Li Chen didn't believe it at all when he heard this, but many people believed that it was indeed true.

……

In front of Gate 79, Li Chen looked at the inevitable dilapidated house and was a little speechless, is it really gone? Thinking about it, it has been more than ten years, and even if it is still doing it, it should have been transferred.

I don't know what's going on with this street, many parts of the town have begun to be renovated, but this old street has not been moved. You must know that this is almost the center of the town, or by a large river that runs through the town, it should be impossible for no one to look at this place!

It is also unreasonable to talk about the preservation of ancient buildings, because if this is the case, it is impossible to allow these houses to be dilapidated like this.

I looked left and right, so I had to ask the old man who was setting up a stall next to me.

Generally, most of the old people who set up stalls here have been stalling here for a long time, don't look at a seventy or eighty-year-old man, people are well-informed.

A town is not small, but it is not big, basically they all know each other, as long as the town has any troubles and grasses in the near future, it depends on whether they are willing to tell you.

He walked quickly to the eldest old man, and before he could speak, the old man asked clearly, "Young man, what do you want?"

I have to say that those who can come out to set up stalls are all handsome, otherwise you are a fortune teller, who will come to the door with a look of dying?

And the person in front of him should be almost eighty years old, he still looks energetic, it seems that living to be 100 years old is not a dream!

"Uncle, I'm not a fortune teller, I just want to ask you a question. Li Chen also couldn't laugh or cry, although he had respect for mysterious things, he didn't believe it, he just gave himself psychological comfort.

"Ask questions, of course, young man can ask whatever he wants, old man I will tell you what I know. ”

Li Chen looked at the old man's smiling appearance, knowing that he didn't count his fate but asked questions to heart.

But think about it, people who have lived for so long, no matter how they say that their experience is higher than most people, not to mention that they are all old people who do this business, who will be willing to tell fortunes and who is not fortune tellers should see it more clearly.

I didn't pay attention to the old man's words, he did this kind of fortune telling, his mouth was very slippery, and it wasn't in his mind to say it or not!

But you can't think of all people in a bad way, generally speaking, the old people believe in good karma, what if there is cause and effect in the future?

Li Chen half-squatted down and pointed to the dilapidated house No. 79 and asked, "Uncle, do you know where the owner of that house has gone?"

The old man looked at it and said suddenly: "You said that Old Zhao Tou, he moved, and he moved away with a few of his apprentices more than six years ago." ”

Listening to this title, they are familiar with each other, and it seems that they are asking the right person, and they ask again: "Do you know where they have moved?"

The old man didn't answer, but glanced Li Chen up and down, and asked, "Young man...... Are you getting married? and you're going to have a traditional wedding?"

Li Chen was not surprised by this speculation, as long as he thought about it, he would know, but he still patiently replied: "Yes, I heard that the old man said that this store is making traditional clothes, so I found it, but I didn't expect to move out, and I don't know if I will continue to do it." ”

"Alas~ The current tradition has long been lost, and when my mother-in-law got married, she was dressed up to marry. The old man sighed, "You guy is good, the dress is no worse than a modern wedding, they moved to New Street, it seems to be No. 36, you can find it?"

"I can find it, I'm also a native of here, but I haven't missed it. Li Chen nodded.

The old man raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Why haven't you seen you?"

Li Chen said with a smile: "I've been out for five or six years, and it's only a matter of one or two years since I came back, and it's the first time Lao Fengxiang has come here after I came back." ”

"Oh... It's good, I went out and found someone who was willing to marry, unlike young people, after going out, I came back on a blind date when I was a certain age. ”

After Li Chen got the news he wanted, he didn't talk any more, but took out twenty from his wallet and handed it to the old man, saying, "Old man, thank you for your answer, this twenty is the answer fee." ”

The old man was not polite, and directly took the money from Li Chen's hand, "That's okay, I'm not welcome." ”

He doesn't know if he can make fifty every day in this stall, and when Li Chen says that he wants to buy clothes, he knows that this twenty is not bad.

He is familiar with Lao Zhaotou, and naturally knows the price of this kind of natural silver jewelry, a simple set of twenty or thirty thousand is considered less, and some gorgeous and complex ones are not nothing.

……

After Li Chen left, he went straight to Xinjie, Xinjie, as the name suggests, is newly built, much better than other places that are a little old.

But it's crowded enough, today is the market day, the elderly, women and children from all the villages are gathered together, and it is not too crowded.

And the most in the town at this stage are pickpockets, the locals are okay, pick out outsiders to attack, even if they are caught, because they are locals, they will be detained for a few days.

After more than half an hour, I finally followed the slow flow of people to Xinjie, which was half a town away from Lao Fengxiang Street, and it was too far away.

After looking for it one by one, I found that the façade of No. 36 was almost in the innermost room!

There is just an old wooden plaque hanging on the façade, called "Zhao Da Silver Ornament", which is the name...... Good popularity.

This is a half-opened six-door door, after entering, inside is a lobby, in addition to a variety of stools, there are several sets of national costumes covered by glass in front of the hall, wearing on the character model is not too beautiful!

As soon as he got closer, a young man came over and asked with a smile, "Do you want to buy silver jewelry?"

"Well, I need to buy a set of silver jewelry. Li Chen nodded, and then said helplessly: "I inquired with an old man in the village, and I went to your old façade to find it, if I hadn't inquired nearby, I really couldn't find this place." ”
