Wu Sheng Lu Mingfei of the Dragon Clan

Chapter 69

Fortunately, there is still such a stubborn corner of Old Well Lane, who clings to the past years and refuses to let go, like an old man basking in the sun with the dog lying in the corner, cheerful, happy, and happy. Live slowly.

The road here is uneven, and after a few steps, one side of the stone slabs has been broken into several pieces, and occasionally a few pieces are raised at one corner.

"Tell you, it's fun to walk this way in the rain."

Lu Mingfei gave an enthusiastic introduction.

"It's like playing minesweeper. You never know if you will splash water all over your body when you step on the next stone slab. Children like it very much because they can play in water openly. You can see that stepping on puddles while walking for no reason must be difficult." After being whipped by Dad, the cobblestone road will be different, it is the fault of the road if you step into the water, maybe Dad will still care about you."

"Do you come here often?"

Asked by Tokuro Mai.

"Do not."

Lu Mingfei looked at an unnamed white flower poking its head out from the corner of the wall. The place was full of hard rocks. How did this weak flower sprout.

"I'm here for the first time today."

There was a look of remembrance on his face.

"A few years ago, I heard a classmate in my class talk about Laojing Lane. He said that the old houses here are very old. When walking in the early morning when the mist has not cleared, some old people who get up early come out to open the door. Take off the wooden boards, and open four pairs of carved mahogany doors one by one."

Lu Mingfei is reminiscing and narrating at the same time.

"At 06:30 in the morning, he was led by his father and walked through the old well alley. He saw someone squatting at the door eating porridge and pickles. They pickled them at home in spring. He heard that eating too much pickles would cause cancer. It's easy to die or something."

"But how delicious it is."

"It's cheap and easy to eat. I can eat a bucket of pickled food for a year. Even if it causes cancer, it's probably fine as long as I eat less."

"what!"

Lu Mingfei smiled.

"Come on, look."

He pointed to the stone tablet at the door of a family.

It is said to be a stone tablet, but it is only the size of a book. It stands upright in the corner of the door, with the words "Mount Tai is here" written in red ink.

Jiu De Mai also squatted down with Lu Mingfei.

"It's the first time I've seen you."

Said the female ninja.

"There are statues of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva over there in Japan. Is this something similar?"

"Oh, that turned out to be Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."

Lu Mingfei suddenly realized.

"It's the small stone temple that is as high as the Taoist's ankle that often appears in anime, right? I saw it in Spirited Away and thought it was the God of Earth."

Lu Mingfei sighed again.

"I didn't expect Ksitigarbha to have such a big name in your place. Although the temple is a little small, it's amazing to be able to see it everywhere. After all, didn't the Buddha say that he wants to save the world, so what if he builds a magnificent temple? If you can get in, it’s better to put your home on the side of the road, even beggars and woodcutters can worship, who is nobler than the other.”

Lu Mingfei explained to Jiude Mai again.

"Mount Tai is here. It is said that the Lord of Mount Tai is the oldest god of the underworld in Chinese mythology. It is said that he judges ghosts on Mount Tai. The good ghosts will be sent to death, and the bad ghosts will be given to him by his pet white tiger. Eat it in one bite."

"The old people on our side all have stone tablets engraved with Mount Tai here, just like Zhong Kui's picture of catching ghosts posted on the gates of some places in China. They are town houses to drive away evil spirits and protect family members from entering and exiting safely."

"Although it may not be useful."

Speaking of this, Lu Mingfei laughed happily.

"But what fun."

He sighed softly again.

"The gold and silver are scattered, the tall buildings are deserted, the generals have white heads, the beauties are withered bones, the princes and princes turn their heads empty, the time is like flowing water, and the world is full of vicissitudes. What this land can leave us is history and culture."

Jiu De Mai remained silent, and even breathed so lightly that it was barely audible. She felt a huge and majestic emotion in Lu Mingfei at this moment. Is it sadness, but I can only use two words to describe it. A little too frivolous.

Lu Mingfei seems to have some kind of heavy and unforgettable past. Sometimes Jiude Mai feels in a trance that he is just an old man, or some important person who has washed his hands and retired to the mountains. You see, he goes to the street every day to buy a bun with a smile on his face. The boss chatted a few words, and when he saw a stray dog, he would buy something to feed him, but occasionally his expression reminded you of what a thrilling and soul-stirring past this person must have. If you were curious and asked him, you would just smile The interruptions confused the past, and there was no shape.

It can be seen that ghosts, this person is the only one.

Jiu Toku Mai recalled Lu Mingfei's majestic and breathless murderous aura when he was in the villa.

She felt that she couldn't understand this boy more and more. Lu Mingfei seemed to be shrouded in a thick layer of fog. From a distance, you saw the silhouette and thought you understood it, but the closer you got, the boy's figure was blurred. The more blurred it is, the only one who knows about his past is himself, and he refuses to tell anyone else. This is his incomparable treasure, priceless.

"gone."

Lu Mingfei got up and greeted Mai Jiude.

"Oh, here we come."

It's ten o'clock in the morning. They came to Laojing Lane mainly to find a house for Lu Mingfei. The two of them had already agreed that as long as Lu Mingfei liked Jiu De Mai, they would help with the negotiation, and Lu Mingfei would pay the rent. Just kidding, the president of the Children's Palace The coach is rich.

There is nothing wrong with saying that, but they all arrived in Laojing Lane for half an hour, and Lu Mingfei didn’t ask anyone or call the rental advertisement on the wall, just squatted under a big cypress tree to watch the two old men play chess .

It's not a chess scam on the street, Jude Mai can tell it just by looking at it, it's just an ordinary old man teaming up to relieve boredom, besides her and Lu Mingfei, there are three or two old men standing next to them, and they know that they are acquaintances from the content of their chat .

Lu Mingfei was watching chess with great interest, and Mai Tokuku wanted to say, why don’t you always have to find a house, why do you have such leisure time, and finally chose to give up considering the difference in combat power between the two.

Just watching the old man play two sets, someone told Lu Mingfei.

"Young man is interesting. You are very patient. You are also a chess lover. Why don't you play a game."

"okay."

Lu Mingfei readily agreed.

So Jiude Mai watched helplessly as Lu Mingfei sat down familiarly, and even clasped fists with a few old men with playful smiles and talked about showing ugliness.

This scene is weird no matter how you look at it, if you put Lu Mingfei in a Tang suit, put on cloth shoes with thousand layers of soles on his feet, and it is better to have a white beard on his feet, then it will look much more comfortable.

But now, young master, you are only eighteen, where did you get the demeanor of a retired veteran cadre!

After killing two games, it was noon. Middle school students on bicycles whizzed by, tires rolling on the bluestone slabs made clanking noises, boys were laughing and chatting, and someone was yelling that the landslides and the earth will be split!It seems to be a new game move.

"It's nice to be young."

Lu Mingfei, who was squatting on the side of the road holding a bowl of wontons, was so emotional.

Jiu De Mai hesitated to speak, but before the young master said this, can you look in the mirror first, with your tender face, the boy on the bicycle just now might call you brother.

"Do you have a fancy house?"

Jiu De Mai reminded him.

Finally, she still couldn't hold back, the main time was about to come, Lu Minfei had to go to the Children's Palace in the afternoon, the house was still not settled, could it be delayed until tomorrow.

"This one, I'm looking for it."

Lu Mingfei said.

"I've been shopping around, but I don't see anything I like. Let's take another look."
