277. Chapter 3 The family followed closely

The old mother-in-law offered to find a famous feng shui master to come to the house to see what was strange. Minister Qin nodded in agreement.

So, the old mother-in-law invited a feng shui gentleman, this person is about 70 years old, surnamed Pei, named Xilu, he has relied on showing people feng shui all his life, and he is quite famous in the south of the old city - it was the neighbors who introduced the old mother-in-law to the old mother-in-law.

On that day, Minister Qin and his lover specially took a half-day off.

Pei Xilu took the compass and looked at the four directions in the courtyard first, then turned around in the aisle, and finally entered the four rooms in turn.

Minister Qin's family of three followed closely behind, and they didn't dare to come out, Pei Xilu seemed to have something to do, and this family of three looked solemn.

Pei Xilu spent the longest time in a wing room on the east side of the aisle, and he placed the compass under the four walls of the wing room for a while, and then looked at the brick wall and pillar herringbone beams on the east wall for a minute or two.

Before speaking, Pei Xilu focused on the two doors again; The first door was the one sealed off on the north side of the aisle; The second gate is the one that opens behind the east wall of the courtyard. Out of this door is an alley, the name of the alley is "impermanence lane", this alley is south to Zhonghe Street, north to Qixingmen Street, the alley is very narrow, only a bearer can pass, if two people meet head-on, then it is necessary to slightly sideways to pass; The biggest feature of "Impermanence Alley" is that it is long and has many curves, which means that you can't see the end of the alley from one end of the alley.

The walls on both sides of the alley are very high, especially the east wall of the alley, which is at least four meters high, which is about a meter higher than the west wall of the alley.

The name of the alley is also special.

But Si Bixia's mother knew the origin of the name, and the old man learned a lot about the past of this courtyard, including the environment in which it was located, from your neighbors.

First, the west side of the alley, was originally the Che family compound, and was later divided into two courtyards, one large and one small, it is said that the ancestor of the Che family was a red-top merchant, and the famous red-top businessman Hu Xueyan in history is about the same, specializing in the business of the palace, as long as it is the things needed in the palace, the Che family is operated, because the Che family has a thick foundation, therefore, all the buildings of the Che family compound are very particular, the reason why Minister Qin likes the impermanence lane - No. 157 Zhonghe Street, probably also has this reason!

Second, the east side of the alley was originally a large family surnamed Yin, and later the Yin family was defeated because of the crime, so the imperial court transformed the Yin family compound into a prison, and some death row inmates were held in the prison, which is why the east wall of the alley is about one meter higher than the west wall.

There is no doubt that there are countless souls in the Yin family compound, there are too many souls, and there are so many souls that they have to run to the outside of the Yin family compound to wander around, and the front and back are streets, which is inconvenient for ghosts to wander, and "Impermanence Lane" has naturally become the most ideal place, and those who are old say that "Impermanence Lane" is often haunted, so "Impermanence Lane" is probably named for this reason.

When people think of ghosts, they think of "black and white impermanence", and the name "impermanence alley" probably comes from this.

Since Peixi Road is a famous feng shui gentleman in the south of the old city, he naturally knows the history of the Yin family compound.

After Pei Xilu finished reading it, he didn't say anything.

"Master, how's it going? There's something wrong with that, the master said. The old lady couldn't hold it back.
