90,000 Years of Longevity

Chapter 468: Passing By

Jiangnan, a small remote town.

Regardless of the hustle and bustle and big news outside, this town did not seem to have been affected in any way.

The streets were clean and tidy.

On one side, it was full of antique Chinese classical architectural style buildings.

On the other side, it was full of modern high-rise buildings.

On one side, there was heavy traffic.

On one side, there were many coachmen, pulling the old rickshaw and trotting in it.

On the street, there were many vendors shouting loudly.

In front of some small stalls selling small items, many passers-by squatted.

In front of some food stalls, there was a tempting fragrance, and it was also crowded with people.

The streets of the entire town were filled with a full taste of red dust.

From a certain point of view, this place seemed to be a paradise on earth.

This day, a young man in a white dress, with his hands on his back, walked quietly in this street.

"Sir, do you want a paper fan here? 10 yuan a piece. With this folding fan and your clothes, it will definitely match it better."

When a girl who sold folding fans and wore ethnic style saw the boy, a soft smile bloomed on her face, and her voice was even softer.

"Great." The boy stopped slightly.

Then as he stretched out his hand, a paper currency appeared magically.

The girl was not curious, instead, she handed the folding fan to the teenager swiftly, and at the same time, she took the paper and pen, and the smile on her face was still sweet.

"Sir, there are a lot of jade pendants here. The color is bright, although it is not genuine, it looks beautiful and elegant. It only costs 50 yuan a piece. This thing can be hung around the waist to ward off evil spirits."

Before the young man who took the paper fan could walk away, a middle-aged woman narrowed her eyes with a smile. When she saw the young man, she quickly promoted the jade pendant on her stall.

"Great." The boy stopped slightly.

While receiving the jade pendant, the woman also took the money away.

The jade pendant was milky white, there was an inverted Chinese "Luck" word carved on it. The upper part of the jade pendant was tied with a red string, and the lower part was tied with a beautiful Chinese knot with a red string.

After the boy took it, with a slight movement of his fingers, the jade pendant was magically hung on the side of his waist, and as he moved forward, the jade pendant was swaying from side to side in the air.

When the woman saw this, the smile on her face remained unchanged, and she didn't seem to be curious about it.

"Sir, there are some fresh vegetable leaves here. For 5 yuan, they will all be sold to you!"

As the boy took a few steps again, a woman in her seventies or eighties, carrying a wooden basket with a few vegetables in it, greeted the teenager enthusiastically. When she spoke, her mouth leaked and her teeth were sparse.

"Great."

The teenager, with a folding fan in one hand, took the vegetables and paid.

"I picked these vegetables from the ground today. They are very fresh, young man, after you go back, don't leave them for too long. Wash them early and stir-fry them so that they taste good." Seeing the boy took it, the woman narrowed her eyes and reminded him very enthusiastically.

The young man said nothing as he continued to walk towards the distance of this street.

When holding a folding fan in one hand and vegetable leaves in the other, the young man always felt a little incompatible with the surrounding environment. After walking about two steps, he simply stopped.

His leisurely gaze re-examined this street.

Just earlier, an uncle who had finished buying vegetables, riding an old-fashioned bicycle, whizzed across the street.

While riding a bicycle, there was a simple smile on his face while he yelled, "Get out of the way, please get out of the way!"

The people in the front compromised and stepped aside.

However, no one blamed him. On the contrary, after watching the old-fashioned bicycle pass by, the smiles on the faces of passersby remained unchanged.

As the bicycle passed by the teenager, the uncle happened to see that there were many vegetables in the basket in front of his bicycle. It was obvious that the bicycle was swaying from side to side, but the vegetables inside did not fall off at all.

The speed of the bicycle was not fast, however, because the street was not very long, it quickly disappeared to the end.

"Less the breath of red dust."

The boy retracted his gaze, twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, and said softly.

Then he turned and walked two steps, after that, he spoke to the old woman who sold vegetables to him earlier, "These vegetables are not easy to take. Do you have a bag here?"

"Yes, of course."

With a smile on the woman's face, she swiftly took out a wrinkled plastic bag from her pocket.

"Young man, I'm sorry. I was in a hurry just now. I forgot to give you the bag. Come, you can put the things in..." The woman's voice was enthusiastic, without the slightest impatience.

"Great." The boy answered a word as he put everything inside the bad before he continued to walk forward.

As the teenager walked around, the plastic bag swayed in the air, making a constant rattling noise.

The teenager was holding a folding fan in one hand, and a bag in the other. When walking, the jade pendant on the waist and the plastic bag sometimes collide with each other, shaking from side to side. In this street, it was quite a unique scenery.

"Sir…"

"Fortune-telling, sir, do you want to do a fortune?"

"The best snack in Jiangnan! Sir, would you like it?"

"The best wine in Jiangnan..."

On both sides of the street, the shouts of the vendors continued.

But this time, the boy did not stop, but looked ahead and walked quietly.

This moment, the boy felt that he was somewhat similar to the passers-by in this street. He was also stained with red dust, secular, and smelled of fireworks.

After the young man walked about ten meters this time, his original indifferent expression gradually eased a lot.

With long black hair and the conspicuous white dress and the classic place like this, he wouldn't attract anyone's attention at all.

But when the teenager walked out for a while, a soft, clear female voice suddenly sounded next to him, "Sir, your appearance looks so familiar! Have we seen each other before?"

Hearing this, the teenager stopped and looked over slightly.
