Ji Feng took his newlywed wife on a self-driving trip for his honeymoon, and the two of them traveled through the state and province through one scenic town after another. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
He and his wife Meilan can be regarded as a flash marriage, and they fell in love and got married in lightning after knowing each other for less than a month! Ji Feng felt that Meilan was the woman he had been waiting for all his life, and if he missed it, he was afraid that he would not meet it again in the future.
And Meilan is even more obsessed with Ji Feng! When they first met, they had a feeling that they hated to see each other late.
Ji Feng is a field photographer who specializes in taking photos for websites and magazines, so Meilan also wants to see the beautiful scenery he captures. The two hit it off and decided to spend a special honeymoon by walking and shooting.
On this day they were about to go to a small town in the north, Siringi, and according to the map, they walked more than 70 kilometers further north along the road.
Surrounded by mountains along the way, the scenery is particularly beautiful. Even Meilan, who is not very good at photography, couldn't help but take a few beautiful photos with her mobile phone. Because it is early autumn now, the leaves of the white blossom trees on the mountain are yellow, and from a distance, it is golden and yellow, and it really feels like a golden mountain of sunshine......
Ji Feng also followed the navigation while looking at the map along the way, so he was not too worried about going the wrong way. At noon he found a small river near the highway and began to cook on the fire.
They have been in the wild for the past few days, and if they can't make it to the next town at night, then he and Meilan will live in the car. Of course, they also brought tents, and if the temperature is right at night, they will also live outside.
The two of them have had a special romance these days, and Ji Feng and Meilan also feel that their honeymoon is very special.
After lunch, they took a nap in the car, recuperated and ready to continue on their way. But when the car had been driving on the dense road for a while, another fork in the road suddenly appeared on their right.
Meilan asked Ji Feng very curiously: "Husband, where does the road lead on the map?" ”
Ji Feng stopped the car, opened the map, looked at it for a while, and said, "Strange, there is no such road on the map, it may be a road that doesn't work!" ”
"Impossible, this road is so wide, cars can drive in, how can it not be passed?" Meilan pointed to the road and said.
Ji Feng searched the map for a while, and finally came to the conclusion that there was indeed no such road on the map. But Meilan wanted to see where this road leads, so she said to Ji Feng coquettishly: "Husband, shall we take this road?" ”
Ji Feng glanced at Meilan and said, "Wife, I didn't expect you to be more curious than me?" Well, it's still early anyway, so let's walk this way for half an hour and see where we can get there! ”
Meilan cheered and said, "Great, husband, I love you to death!" ”
So Ji Feng drove the car into this fork in the road, but when their car drove by, no one noticed a sign upside down in the grass on the side of the road, with four big words written on it: "No entry"!
As they drove a little further, they noticed that the weeds on the road were so high that it had been a long time since a car had passed by. Ji Feng kept looking at the navigation, but since they turned into this road, the navigation has been as silent as death, and there is no hint.
Just when the two of them were about to lose interest and walk back, Meilan suddenly screamed: "Look, husband, it seems to be a small town ahead!" ”
Ji Feng looked in the direction of Meilan's finger, and sure enough, some houses appeared at the end of the road not far away.
As soon as the car drove into the town, a huge placard stood on the side of the road, which read, "Safety in production, everyone is responsible!" Eliminate hidden dangers and prevent them from happening! ”
"Is this a forest farm?" Meilan asked.
Ji Feng shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, it may be a forest farm, or it may be a factory." ”
When Meilan heard this, she looked around and found that the houses here were very dilapidated, and some of the windows did not even have glass. The weeds in front of the house have long grown to the height of one person, and they look particularly desolate......
"Husband, how do I feel that no one lives here?" Meilan said uneasily.
Ji Feng parked the car on the side of the road, then got out of the car and looked around and said, "There should be no one living in these houses, let's go forward for a while, if there is still no one, let's go back!" ”
As a result, they drove the car forward for a while and found that it was quite large, with schools, cinemas, post offices, and police stations...... But there was no one.
Meilan also walked into a clothing store, which was full of old clothes and covered with dust. She glanced at the wall calendar on the wall, which was for the month of March 1992.
"Husband, what's so strange here? Why not one? Meilan asked strangely.
After hearing this, he said: "In the eighties and nineties of the last century, in such forest areas, there would be some state-owned enterprises, such as forest farms, machinery factories, and the like. Because the factory is large, the number of workers plus their families and children is about the same as in a small town, so there must be some necessary public facilities. Later, the factory may have been withdrawn due to some reasons such as the economic downturn, so that there will be some desolate towns like this that no one lives in. ”
Although Meilan felt that what Ji Feng said made sense, she still raised her own questions, "Then why haven't the things here been taken away?" For example, the clothing store I just walked into was full of old clothes, and even if people moved to other places at that time, how could they not take these things that should have been worth some money at the time? ”
Let Meilan say this, Ji Feng was also asked, this is the first time he has encountered this situation, it seems that this town is really a bit weird......
Then they went into several houses and found that they had all kinds of pots and pans, refrigerators and televisions. Although these things are not worth much now, they must have been very in-demand commodities at the time, so how could the family not take them when they moved out?
Ji Feng casually opened a wooden drawer, and there was a pile of black things inside. After he brushed the ash off it with his hand, he could see at a glance that it was actually a blue household register. He opened it and saw that it was a family of three.
The head of the household is called Shen Jianguo, his wife is called Liu Mei, and they have a daughter named Shen Xue. There was a pile of things pressed under the household registration book, and Ji Feng felt like a ...... Renminbi. He took it out and dusted off the thick ash on it, and sure enough, it was a pile of blue and gray hundred-dollar bills!
Meilan was also attracted by the things in Ji Feng's hands for the first time, she took these things over and looked at them, and said with a suspicious face: "If this family moves out under normal circumstances, they can not take household appliances or cooking utensils later." But there's absolutely no reason not to take the family register and cash? (To be continued.) )
