Chapter 252: Water Town in a Dream
Chen Xing looked at the photo he had just captured, and kept the one that smiled the best. It's so cute. Other people's daughters are so good, just like his niece Little Apple, every time she goes to her sister's house, she calls her uncle, and then opens her little hands to ask for a hug, Chen Xing always has an urge to buy her everything.
But what about giving birth to yourself...... Forget it, I haven't had enough of it. If you look carefully, there are many stories that can be filmed on this river.
The girl leaning on the guardrail can shoot, maybe there are fish in the water, her eyes are staring closely into the river, and she is talking to her companion in a colorful voice.
Not far from Chen Xing, there is a young lady with a camera, probably just out of society, wearing the most ordinary T-shirt can't stop the youth, she also holds the camera to find the story that happened on this corridor.
Maybe he felt Chen Xing's gaze, so he moved the camera to Chen Xing's side. Hey? Handsome guy?
Before she pressed the shutter, Chen Xing also quickly picked up the camera, quickly adjusted the focus manually, and pressed the shutter almost at the same time as her.
I got two photos taken by the photographer. Hasselblad's autofocus is very powerful, much better than Nikon's Sony, but in this emergency situation, Chen Xing's manual focus is faster, and he doesn't need to look at the effect in the viewfinder at all, and shoots directly.
Hasselblad is so fragrant. Putting down the camera, both of them laughed, but did not get to know each other. This photo is definitely to be kept, both of them thought so in their hearts.
After all, this kind of picture can usually only be photographed by posing, and now it has been done unintentionally, and this natural effect is not printed and hung on the wall, which is a blasphemy against the model.
Now there aren't many people in the store. After all, tapes are really useless now, they can only be used for collection, but few people will spend more money than they expected to collect this kind of thing, even if it is a fan of a certain star, even the former Chen Xing will feel that it is too expensive.
That was before. Aren't you rich now? Chen Xing can't save money, but he is still very willing to spend money.
I couldn't get into the store, and the young lady of the live broadcast used a board of just the right length to block the entrance of the store, and she chatted with the fans in the live broadcast room about what song she wanted to sing for a while, and noticed that someone was coming, so she glanced at it.
I didn't take my eyes off it. Chen Xing asked, "How much is that tape of Dong Chou?" ”
"200, I promise it's genuine, I'll also send a Walkman, handsome guy, which song do you like from Jay Chou?"
"The bell in the opposite direction."
"What a coincidence, I also like this song, I just sang it in the live broadcast room before." As she spoke, she stood on tiptoe and took the tape that Chen Xing wanted from the shelf, and then found three colors from the counter, but the same style of the Walkman, and asked, "Handsome guy, what color do you like?" ”
"White." Generally, the Walkman who listens to the tape is very large, after all, the tape is very large, but she sent it is indeed very small, the size is only one circle larger than the tape, it seems to be the technology of the last few years, and the appearance is also high.
Chen Xing first scanned the code to give the money, then picked up the walkman and tape and said, "Thank you." ”
"Eh...... Earphone! Zhou Tong only cared about looking at the handsome guy, forgetting that this Walkman has no external function, and if there is no headphone, it is just a small brick, and it is still the kind that doesn't hurt people.
Chen Xing took the headphones and left. The tape is just right to listen to, and it is placed on the side of the backpack after playback, and the headphone cable is long enough.
These headphones are not bad, and they are quite comfortable to carry.
"I want to have a helicopter, I want to fly to the universe with you......" The female anchor bent down to look at Chen Xing in the corridor for a long time, until he disappeared into the crowd before retreating, sitting in front of the mobile phone screen with a melancholy face, and said to tens of thousands of fans in the live broadcast room: "In order to broadcast live to you, you don't know what I missed?" ”
"Make a woman! Actually let us look at the chair for ten minutes. ”
"I heard someone buy Jay Chou's album?"
"When have you ever sung the bell in the opposite direction? Hurry up and make up for it! Zhou Tong took a few deep breaths, adjusted his breath first, and then said with a smile: "Okay, I haven't sung this song for a long time, I'll find the lyrics first." "There are tens of thousands of online people in a live broadcast room during the day, so it's no wonder that she said that she opened a store to play.
At this time, Chen Xing was about to walk out of the porch, but he smelled a fragrance. When you turn your head, you can see that it is a snack bar.
Chen Xing took the action camera and said: "The ruthless people in the Northeast are right, when you are hungry, when you turn around, you will see a small shop with a fragrant smell, this is happiness, although this issue is an ancient town video, but it doesn't affect a simple visit to the store, right?" Taking off the earphone on the right, Chen Xing followed in line.
This is a shop that sells cakes, if it is in the Central Plains, it must be called what is the steamed bun, in the southwest it is called so-and-so, and the south likes to subdivide the cake or cake, and the shop in front of me is a kind of cake.
Chen Xing actually doesn't understand the reason, mainly because the signboard of this shop is called malt cake. There weren't many people in line, and it was time to get to Chen Xing soon.
"How many?" The aunt who bought the cake asked. Chen Xing swallowed a mouthful of saliva and compared it with his hand. The two are about the same, and today is still a long time, so I don't know what I will encounter in the future, but now that I am full, I should not be able to eat.
Malt flatbread is ugly. His color is dark green, and then it is fried, and the crackling sound can be heard clearly in the store, and the color of the fried is not very good, but after adding some water to boil, the cooking appearance is even worse.
But it smells good. Chen Xing has long passed the stage of judging food by appearance, as long as it looks reliable, then Chen Xing can eat it no matter what it looks like.
At least the courage to taste it is still there. Holding the loaded malt cake, Chen Xing squeezed out the crowd from the side, and a good-looking Hanfu girl suddenly lowered her head and asked, "Handsome guy, I lost my mobile phone, can I borrow your mobile phone to make a call?" ”
"Yes." Chen Xing handed out his mobile phone without hesitation. No matter what her purpose is, Chen Xing doesn't lose anything anyway...... Even if she took her phone and turned around and ran, it would be fine, anyway, she couldn't run as fast as him.
After a while, the bell came from her. It is estimated that it was the first time to talk to him, or the way he learned on Douyin, the girl blushed very cutely, held Chen Xing's mobile phone in both hands and handed it to him.
Chen Xing ate the malt cake he had just gotten without any image, took back his mobile phone and said, "Then I'll call you later." He volunteered.
"Ah...... Good...... Thank you! "There are still a lot of people wearing Hanfu here, almost one out of 20 tourists wears Hanfu, but the proportion is already very high, anyway, no matter where you go, you can see at least dozens or hundreds of people, you can see more than a dozen men and women wearing Hanfu.
All are young people, looking definitely no more than 25. The revival of Hanfu is something that has only happened in the past ten years, and for many people, even for the post-80s, it can be regarded as a fancy dress, even if they themselves say that they support such behavior on the Internet, but they generally don't wear it.
And people between the ages of 40 and 60 may not recognize the difference between Hanfu and kimono. Chen Xing knew a very powerful Hanfu master, who was a college student in Rongcheng, at that time, Chen Xing saw that she wore many sets of clothes, and she usually wore Hanfu when she went out shopping every day, which was very beautiful.
But he didn't wear it himself. The up master is called You Jiangling, and there are only Hanfu worn by girls at home, and there is no Chen Xing to wear.
Suddenly, the idea of wearing Hanfu for a tour was born. However, I was dissuaded by the current weather. Even if the temperature here is already very comfortable compared to the outside, this comfort is also relative, and it is impossible to have the cool feeling of spring and autumn, and no matter how you wear Hanfu, you have to have two or three layers, otherwise there is no lining or anything, how ugly it is.
Next time, next time. It's good to appreciate the beautiful women in Hanfu this time. Chen Xing thought like this, and took another bite of this malt cake.
Although this cake is not good-looking, it tastes really good. Take a bite, the refreshing fragrance and sweet glutinous, but also have a thick aroma, I can't tell whether it is the fragrance of the land, or the smell of the growth of crops, think about it, maybe it is the unique breath of Jiangnan.
It's not rotten, it's not sticky, it's not greasy, and it has a bit of Q flavor. After the two of them finished eating, Chen Xing felt hungrier than before, so he changed from looking for scenery to looking for food.
Xitang also eats a lot, there is a kind of lotus leaf tamale, which tastes like a lotus flower, Chen Xing has always liked to eat this tamale, so he bought one and ate it with a stick, and went to a milk tea shop to buy fruit tea.
In addition to this strange and interesting commercial street, this attraction is also famous for its 'lane'. One of the most famous is Shipi Lane, which is one of the must-see attractions when you come here.
The appearance of this kind of thing is also related to the environment in Jiangnan. Because these towns are located in places with dense water networks, the local people calculate inch by inch when building houses, and try to minimize the spacing between buildings, so that a room and a room, the middle one forms a 'line of sky'.
Walking in this kind of alley, stepping on the ancient green bricks, I am always looking forward to whether a girl on the other side will come over and meet you.
After all, the aisle is narrow, and it is inevitable that you will get close to it. Maybe it's the beginning of a relationship.
Out of this alley, but there is no road ahead, but the end point of the first-line sky passage is a three-step stone staircase, and it is the river to go down, and I don't know if the bosses of these boats know that people often come out of this place, and there are several boats parked in a small place.
The owner of the boat closest to Chen Xing asked, "Young man, do you want to take a boat?" ”
"Okay." Chen Xing took two steps along the stone, and then cautiously stepped onto the canopy boat. He rarely takes a boat, and his recent impression on a boat is not very good, and he has been on a boat with a group of African buddies for a long time, if it weren't for them sitting in the cabin, then Chen Xing might have a psychological shadow.
The boss looked at Chen Xing's cautious appearance and said with a smile: "Don't worry, young man, I am notoriously stable." Chen Xing had no choice but to say, "I just rarely take boats. "The canopy boat is a very famous means of transportation in the water town south of the Yangtze River, because it is famous for its black lacquer, his style should not be too particular, at least the boats that Chen Xing saw on this river are different, each with its own characteristics.
Some canopies are on both sides, others in the middle. The one Chen Xing sat on, his tent was not on either side, nor in the middle, but close to the front one-third, and there was no tent where the boat boss behind supported the boat, so he stood at the stern of the boat and rowed.
"I haven't said where I'm going." Chen Xing said.
"Then tell me." Chen Xing thought for a while and said, "I don't know for the time being, let's take a look around." ”
"Okay!" The boat boss was so happy, they were waiting for guests outside that alley because of this, and the out-of-town guests who came out of there basically didn't expect the end of the road to be a river, so there was probably no place they wanted to go.
The more guests sit down, the more money they can make. Chen Xing had been walking for most of the day, and he was also tired, so he sat down when he saw that there was a small chair to sit on in the canopy, put his bag at his feet, and held the camera in his hand, looking at the scenery on both sides of the river.
It was time for dinner, but Chen Xing had eaten a lot of snacks along the way, and he was not hungry. But the late Xitang is very charming.
There are large red lanterns hanging on the outside of each house, and as soon as the sky gets dark, all the lanterns are lit, and this red brightness instantly overshadows the still misty light in the sky, and becomes the most conspicuous color in the surroundings.
There are not many colors in the ancient town. The walls are white, the tiles are black, and the canopy boats are also black, so to put it mildly, the only thing that stands out is the sunset that shines diagonally, and the countless red lanterns on both sides of the river.
Chen Xing half-lay down, holding his head in his hands, looking at the sunset in the distance very comfortably. The sunset was about to set, but the end of Chen Xing's vision was not a mountain, but a bridge, and the sky was not yet completely invisible, so Chen Xing could see that the river was still reflecting the reflection of the bridge, the bridge reflected in the water, and a red sunset was gradually rising.
Take a canopy boat to roam Xitang, on both sides are twists and turns of mottled porch sheds, overlooking the canopy boats swaying on the rippling blue river, there is a unique style.
Syllable! Suddenly, a heavy raindrop hit Chen Xing's face, he wiped it, and he was a little stunned for a while.
Or the person holding the boat said: "Guest, it's raining, go into the tent to hide from the rain?" "No wonder it gets dark so fast, it's going to rain.
Chen Xing was as good as a stream, and said, "Okay." So he moved his chair in. It doesn't matter if it rains, the temperature is too high today, maybe the next rain will bring the temperature down, and he will be more comfortable when he goes out for a walk tomorrow.
It didn't take long for the rain to fall. Chen Xing stood very firmly in the canopy, watching the calm lake ripple after ripple by the rain, the entire Xitang world was washed with a layer of water, and the ancient houses on the side of the road suddenly came to life, with strong vitality.
The rain is the real Jiangnan! Chen Xing was getting goosebumps all over his body, and took a lot of photos with his camera.
Hearing someone trotting on the side of the road, Chen Xing looked at it, it was the three of them who had just come out of an alley, and they didn't have time to find a place to hide from the rain, after all, there was no porch here, and the alley was originally the place where the water on the roof of the house was falling, and the three of them became soup chickens.
Chen Xing said: "Friend, get on the boat to hide from the rain, right?" One of them saw that Chen Xing was graceful and said to his companion, "Why don't you go back to the hotel like this?" Got drenched anyway? ”
"Let's hide!" As soon as the other man heard Chen Xing's invitation, he hurriedly replied,
"Thank you!" Chen Xing asked the people who were holding the boat to approach them. This is a travel combination of two men and one woman, and it doesn't look very old.
Anyway, most of the people who travel out are young, and they are basically buried in the family when they get married, unless the wife and children have time, otherwise unless they are on a business trip, it is absolutely impossible to travel around alone.
"Thank you." One of the girls said. She was also wet, and although she was wearing glasses, she was also very good-looking.
Chen Xing handed the girl the windbreaker he had been holding since he got off the plane, and said, "Put it on, it's still a little cold on the river, don't catch a cold." "There was just one table and four chairs in the canopy.
The four of them sat together. Although it was a stranger, Chen Xing didn't know any of them, but in this misty rain, sitting on this swaying boat with three or five friends, talking about their hearts, this kind of scene is fascinating just thinking about it.
Although many people have complained about the commercial development of Xitang, it has also shed its veil so that more people can experience this style.
Forget about business, forget about tickets, forget that this ship costs money. Be an ordinary tourist and linger in this dream water town.
