Chapter 401: Nanzhen
The land is in hand, and the matter between the two in J City is completely over.
After returning to the hotel, Qi Jin took out the map and put it on the bed: "Where do you want to go next?" ”
Xiang Wan looked at the map seriously, stepped on it for a while, and looked up and smiled.
Qi Jin raised his eyebrows: "Nanzhen? I've been to this place once before, and there are a lot of ancient town relics, but it's relatively remote over there, and the town hotel shouldn't be very good. ”
"Then you can rent a private house, like in C City, I have always liked the ancient town, especially when I am immersive, there is a feeling of talking to the old people hundreds of years ago, the next stop is here, and we will go back to Beishi in a few days."
Qi Jin naturally has no opinion, but after the turmoil of more than ten years ago, there are many ruins in the ancient town, but after more than ten years of efforts by the locals, a lot of restoration has been made, and you can still take a look.
After Xiang Wan left, Qi Jin went out for a trip, and when he came back, he carried a lot of daily necessities and food and tea in his hands.
There is no direct train from J city to Nanzhen, you need to get off the train halfway to transfer, although it is a little troublesome, but Xiangguan really wants to go, to see what changes have been made in Nanzhen now and Nanzhen decades later, and it is indeed as Xiangguan Tongqi said, I like the ancient charm of the town.
The two packed their bags and rushed to the train station early the next morning.
It takes two days and two nights to take the train from J city to the downtown area of Nanzhen, and after getting off the train, you can transfer to the shuttle bus, and you will arrive in one and a half hours.
After arriving at the destination, the two went straight to the ancient town, at this time there is no need for tickets, and there is no commercialization, the ancient town is full of all kinds of interspersed alleys, it is easy to get lost for the first time, a piece of ancient style buildings stand, the exterior walls of each house have been weathered, the doors and windows are wooden, the roof is covered with tiles, it looks very desolate from a distance, such an environment is combined with the house, but there is another scenery.
Qi Jin carried the luggage of the two of them, led Xiang Wan to a big tree, and then put the luggage aside: "You wait here for a while, and I'll ask if there is a rental house." ”
Xiang Wan nodded obediently: "Okay." ”
During this period of time, almost all of these things were done by Qi Jin, whether it was looking for a hotel, or eating to supplement daily necessities, everything was handled by Qi Jin.
Now everyone is busy making money, and few people travel like the two of them, and there is no shadow of my country's tourism industry at this time, let alone a very remote place like Nanzhen; At this time, the residents of Nanzhen were generally poor, and the terrain created inconvenient transportation here, with only one shuttle bus a day leading to the city, and more either riding bicycles or throwing ham.
When Xiang Wan and Qi Jin appeared here, the people who were talking to the neighbors at the door instantly looked over, looking at these two young people who were dressed incompatible with Nanzhen with curiosity, and whispered to each other, until Qi Jin walked up to a few people and began to inquire where there was a house for rent.
At this time, two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, walked by Xiang Guan, sweating profusely with a hoe on their shoulders, and when they passed by Xiang Guan's side, the two looked at her at the same time, with surprise on their faces.
One of the middle-aged women, speaking in a dialect that Xiang Wan didn't understand, said to the man next to her, "Huh? Look at this girl, who is white and pure, with fine skin and tender meat, isn't she from us, which family's relatives can't be? ”
The man glanced at Xiang Wan, and quickly withdrew his gaze, and there was no woman so gossipy, only a calm voice: "It looks like it's from the city." ”
"It must be a girl in the city, how can a girl in the countryside be so smart, the clothes are weird and good-looking, and the hair, black and smooth, unlike the straw of my girl, at first glance, she has never suffered hardship."
The man reprimanded the woman and urged her to hurry back, without looking at Xiangguan again; However, the woman turned back frequently, and although Xiang Wan couldn't understand what they said, he also saw the simple curiosity on their faces, and their eyes without any malice, so he smiled at the woman.
When the middle-aged woman saw Xiang Wan's smile, she was stunned for a moment, then grinned back with a bright smile, and then pulled the man's sleeve and whispered something.
Qi Jin walked back after asking, and also noticed the men and women not far away, looked at them casually, turned his head and said, "I asked, there are several houses that are empty, let's put the luggage in the front of the house for the time being, and then go and see the house." ”
Xiang Wan smiled, his gaze gently swept over the few people who were talking opposite, leaned over to Qi Jin, and asked in a low voice, "Can you understand what they say?" ”
"I probably understand, but they speak too quickly, and fortunately there are young people in the town who can communicate."
God knows that when Qi Jin went over to ask questions just now, the old men chattered and said, Qi Jin didn't understand a word, and was stunned on the spot, and finally the young people in the house heard the movement and walked out, so they communicated, of course, such a thing will not be said to Xiang Guan.
The two of them left their luggage at the home of the person who had just asked Qi Jin, and left in a hurry with the same student under a few pairs of curious eyes.
This student's name is Zhu Tao, and he is the only person in Nanzhen who has been admitted to university.
Zhu Tao walked in front to lead the way, noticed Xiang Wan's expression sideways, and grinned brightly: "There are very few outsiders in our town, especially those like you who look like you are from the city, so everyone is inevitably curious, forgive me, they have no malicious intentions." ”
Xiang Wan smiled and waved his hand: "I know, I can see that the people here are very simple." ”
"Yes, I don't sound like you guys here, how did you think to come to our town?"
Looking at the curious eyes of the young man, Xiang Wan smiled again: "We came from Beishi, and I heard that there are many ancient buildings left here, so I wanted to come and have a look." ”
Zhu Tao suddenly realized: "So that's the case, you are actually from the capital, how far away it is, but we don't have anything to see here, I'm tired of watching it for 20 years." ”
Zhu Tao took the two of them into an alley, turned two corners before stopping in front of an ancient house, pointed to it and said: "Most of the young adults in our town have gone out to work, only the elderly and children are left, and a few rooms are vacated. ”
Zhu Tao took out the key from his pocket to open the door, led the two to push the door in, and said while walking in front: "My second uncle's house is also one of the best in the town, if you are not satisfied, I can also take you to see other houses, but if you look at other houses, you have to go to relatives to get the key." ”
