After chatting, Village Chief Zhou began to persuade me to stay in the village for a while longer, "Little Firefly, Qian'an said that you have taken leave from school, just right, go back after New Year's Day here, don't be in a hurry to leave, my eldest son's house has a strawberry greenhouse, you will go to eat tomorrow......

"Uncle Zhou, I have received your wishes, I am a senior in high school, and I still have to focus on my studies, there is an exam at the end of the month, and I really can't live in the village for a long time."

Seeing that the meal was almost over, I was ready to talk about business, "But before I go back, I still want to tell you something very important, and this problem must be solved by you, otherwise I really can't rest assured."

"What's the problem?"

Village Chief Zhou was not drunk, he looked at me as soon as the chopsticks were put down, and his brother-in-law and Daqiang, who were fighting for wine next to him, also looked over when they saw this.

I don't know if it's because they drink too much or because they drink beer, but my brother-in-law and Daqiang are a little blushing when they drink.

There was no shaking, several elders were like no one, and it was a good time to talk.

"Mainly the ancient tower at the entrance of the village."

I looked at Village Chief Zhou, "It looks too shabby, is there a way for you to fix it?"

"Oh, what about the tower, what are you doing repairing it?"

Village Chief Zhou said bluntly, "I won't tell you, I also think it's there to affect the appearance of the village, and it's just at the entrance to the village, many leaders passing by said it's ugly, a few years ago I thought about it and picked it up, but the city construction said that it was a historic site, and it was easy to move casually, I totaled that it was a heritage, and the county cultural office said that it didn't meet the conditions, and I thought about it, this tower has to have a few hundred years in our village, maybe a little bit of feng shui is exquisite, once I get confused, and then the overall luck of our village will be troublesome, So I didn't care about it anymore."

"Luck?"

I grasped the point, "Uncle Zhou, do you think that the aura of Xiling Village is particularly sufficient?"

"Foot, I don't know what to do!"

Village Chief Zhou laughed, "Our village is one of the top 100 villages in the country, Dalin knows that there are no poor households in our village, every household is well-off, and there is another point, we have a lot of spiritual things in the mountains, not to mention the one that was killed by you is too scary, Lao Huang Chengjing or something is common, this is the good atmosphere of the earth, outstanding people!"

"Uncle Zhou, that's what I said to Xiao Ying'er."

The brother-in-law replied, "Little Firefly seems to care about that ancient tower, and she asked about it the night she first came to my house."

"That's right."

I looked at the village chief, "Uncle Zhou, let me ask you, are there any long-lived elderly people in our village?"

"Yes!"

Village Chief Zhou nodded very dryly, but his eyes were a little stuck, "That's ...... Xu Laowu's father, who used to live in the east of the village, must be ninety-six, and I went to hold a birthday banquet in the city this year, isn't that Gao Shou!"

"Has this old man been living in the village all along?"

"That's not ......."

Village Chief Zhou laughed, "Their family is the first to be developed, and they have already moved to the city, and the old man is used to living in the city, and he doesn't adapt to it when he comes back, but he hasn't cut off contact with us, and we usually walk around and salute."

I nodded and continued, "Are there any other long-lived old people besides this old man?"

"Something else ......"

Village Chief Zhou really cooperated with me in pondering there, and said to Daqiang, "Ersheng is his master, it can be regarded as a long life."

"Dad, have you drunk too much, what kind of longevity is his grandfather?"

Da Qiang grinned slightly, "His father is a big generation, he looks old, it seems that he is five years older than you, he is not even sixty this year, and his milk is gone in the second victory last year, and he is still talking to his father about a new and old wife, and he is specially talking to me about the age."

"Ersheng is not yet sixty, so why is his hair all white, he looks very old, but his heart is not old, and the old woman has just left, ......

The brother-in-law took the stubble with the wine glass, and Sister Xiaoling poked him directly under the table, "Don't mess around, your mouth is so broken."

Fortunately, Village Chief Zhou was not affected, and thought of a few names, all of whom were all true on the spot by Daqiang without exception

"Dad, don't scare me? The eldest old man lived to seventy, but he disappeared three months ago, I will go to catch up with the ceremony on your behalf, even he mentioned it, you can't seep people......

"Oops~"

Village Chief Zhou let out a long sigh and became nervous, "Mr. Xiao Ying'er, you remind me that there are really no old people in our village who live too long, and I remember that there are two centenarians in the next village, and there are no people in our village who have lived to eighty in the past ten years, and they have lived to more than seventy in the sky...... What is the reason for this?"

Before he could finish speaking, his eyes widened, "Is it the tower's business?"

"Look, I'll say the tower prisoner!"

As soon as the brother-in-law's wine glass was put down, he became energetic again, "Uncle Zhou, think about it carefully, is there a lot of things in our village all year round!"

Village Chief Zhou was startled by his loud voice, it had to be Sister Xiaoling who came out, and her hand was almost twisting her brother-in-law's thigh under the table, "Why can't you stop your mouth when you drink, show that you can bear it, you let Xiao Ying'er say."

"Yes, Hotaru, what's going on?"

Village Chief Zhou looked at me with a little seriousness, "Does that tower have a saying?"

"There must be a saying, the tower was originally a Buddhist building, also known as a floating map, so there is a saying called saving a person's life, winning the seven-level floating slaughter, which means that saving a person's life is greater than the merit of the man-made tower for the dead, in ancient times, it was originally used to worship Buddha statues, or to collect Buddhist scriptures and Buddha bone relics, etc., called a pagoda, and then gradually developed into a more in line with our traditional architecture."

I said, "In Feng Shui, the tower has the function of Zhenshan Town, Zhenshui and evil spirits, and generally builds a tower in Shuikou, which will make up for the terrain defects and gather dragon energy......

Of course, some places to build towers are also for beauty, such as the mountain shape is not towering enough, build a Wenchang Pavilion, not only to make the scenery perfect, but also to be rich and beautiful, killing two birds with one stone.

"This ancient tower in Xiling Village is obviously built according to the terrain defects."

I saw that everyone at the dinner table listened carefully, and tried to say it in detail, "Before the tower was built, I guessed that there should be a feng shui master who stepped on the pulse, and he found that the qi pulse at the entrance of the village was very weak, and if you want to reverse the aura, the best way is to build a tower, the ancient tower together, can make up for the terrain defects, play a role in the rejuvenation of the earth's veins, and rejuvenate the humanities, if I am not mistaken, a hundred years ago, there must have been a lot of literati in this village."

"There are talents, and my ancestors have them!"

Village Chief Zhou responded directly, "My grandfather and grandmother were big families in the village in their lifetime, and there were all those who served as officials in the imperial court, but since I can remember, the tower is very broken, I remember that when I was a child, there were still long-lived old people in the village, and my grandmother lived for more than eighty, it seems that since the beginning of the past ten years, there are more people in the village, and it may be that the food is unhealthy, and the love is seriously ill, and it will be gone in sixty or seventy."
