Cheng Zhen ran out of breath, put his hands on his legs, and gasped: "You are more popular than a celebrity. These people are crazy, as if they want to eat you."
"You can't advertise this casually, you have to do it responsibly." Luo Tian waved his hands repeatedly: "Besides, there is no advertising fee."
"It's a pity. This way I can visit the antique city. I also want to see you show off your skills." Cheng Zhen said regretfully.
"It's not impossible." Luo Tian suddenly thought: "Today is the 9th?"
"I heard a senior from the Antiques Association say that when he was in Guiyang, he would participate in a ghost market on the 9th of every month to pick up missing items. Today happens to be the 9th! I'll call to confirm. In the evening
I will take you to the ghost market to see something."
"Yeah!" Cheng Zhen jumped up like a child, and then Luo Tian remembered that it turned out that Cheng Zhen was only in her early twenties, which was the most beautiful age, but in her mind she was already a mature woman, and she looked like a younger sister.
, She is a mature woman at heart, Luo Tian thought of such a description.
Seeing Luo Tian's dumbfounded look, Cheng Zhen pushed him: "Hurry up and call!"
Luo Tian finally confirmed it, but in the unfamiliar Guiyang, it was a bit difficult to find this place on his own. Fortunately, there are taxis now. The night market is usually after early morning, and it is still early now: "Let's find a place to eat and then take a nap."
, the time in the ghost market is relatively late, so get up and set off at twelve o'clock."
If Luo Tian was alone, he would choose an ordinary affordable hotel, but with Cheng Zhen, he still wanted to make her more comfortable. He originally chose a five-star hotel, but he didn't expect Cheng Zhen's reaction to be particularly violent. Luo Tian was helpless
, only after choosing another four-star hotel, Cheng Zhen agreed, which made Luo Tian feel a little... touched.
Guiyang's food is mainly spicy and sour. Cheng Zhen is from Hong Kong and her diet is mainly light. Luo Tian was originally worried that she wouldn't be able to eat it, but she didn't expect that the fish in sour soup would hit her stomach, so she ate it to her heart's content.
, and kept praising, "Aren't you from Hong Kong? Can you eat such spicy food?"
"Not all Hong Kong people don't eat spicy food, just like there are Sichuan people who don't eat spicy food." Cheng Zhen felt that Luo Tian underestimated him: "And I often go to other places to study with teachers, participate in archaeological internships, various
I have tasted local food, so don’t doubt my ability to adapt.”
"I admire it, I admire it." Luo Tian changed his words: "Actually, the sour soup is not vinegar, it is made from tomatoes. It is said that in ancient times, Guizhou lacked salt, so the food tasted bad. Later, some people used sourness to season it.
Unexpectedly, there are many dishes related to sourness. And there is a legend about sour soup. There used to be a beautiful girl who brewed wine that was very fragrant, so many men came to woo her. She let them drink the wine she brewed, but
After drinking it, everyone said it was sour. The wine made by the girl will only have a mellow aroma if it is drunk by a truly destined person."
Cheng Zhen looked straight at Luo Tian, who was stunned by her: "What's wrong? This is just a legend, a local allusion."
"I just didn't expect you to be quite romantic at heart." Cheng Zhen asked with a smile: "Has that girl waited for someone who can drink the mellow taste of her wine?"
"I don't know." Luo Tian shook his head: "So it's just a legend."
Cheng Zhen was a little disappointed and buried his head and continued to eat. Luo Tian looked at the time and saw that it was already seven o'clock in the evening: "We have at least four hours of sleep, and we have to leave for the Tomb of the Living Dead tomorrow morning."
"Why do you care so much about the Tomb of the Living Dead?" Cheng Zhen asked a question that caught Luo Tian off guard.
"I'm curious." Luo Tian shrugged: "Besides, the excavation project of Cao Cao's tomb has been suspended. I have to find something to do." As he said this, he secretly cursed himself for being shameless, but there was no way.
You can't say that you have special powers. That fragment always reminds you and makes you uneasy? So you have to trace the source?
Cheng Zhen completely believed that this made Luo Tian slander him even more. He stopped talking and buried himself in eating. After eating, they returned to their respective rooms in the hotel. Luo Tian set the alarm clock on his mobile phone and fell asleep. It was quite comfortable to fly.
Tired, coupled with the afternoon's toil, Luo Tian still slept soundly even though it was still early. When the alarm clock on his phone rang, Luo Tian felt that he had slept for a whole day.
Luo Tian got up, washed his face, and heard a knock on the door. Cheng Zhen had a really strong sense of time. Luo Tian was a little embarrassed and hurried to open the door. Cheng Zhen had already put on his backpack and said cheerfully: "Let's go."
Bar!"
The ghost market in Guiyang is next to a garden in the central area. There is a large open space there. As soon as he left the hotel, Luo Tian saw a taxi parked at the door. The driver was dozing off on the steering wheel. He knocked on the car.
He opened the window, woke up the master, and thought for a moment: "I want to go to the ghost market."
The driver didn't ask any further questions and pointed his hand: "Get in the car." It seemed that this was not the first time he was driving a customer to the ghost market.
The two of them got in the car. The driver was bored and sleepy in the middle of the night. Now he couldn't stop talking: "The first time we go back, right?"
"How do you know?"
"Who among the locals is carrying such a big bag like you?" The driver turned the steering wheel and drove eastward: "The 9th of every month is the best time for our business."
"Only once a month?" In more places, the ghost market is once a week.
"Yes, this place is not as fashionable as Beijing in this regard." The driver was a little more knowledgeable. Luo Tian nodded: "Are there many stalls in the ghost market?"
"More, but in my opinion, most of them are just joining in the fun. Who has so many treasures? If they didn't give them away early, why would they set up a stall? Don't you think so?"
"Haha." Luo Tian nodded repeatedly: "Of course, if you have so many treasures, you will be rich long ago."
As he spoke, he was already very close to the ghost market. It turned out that it was not far from the hotel where Luo Tian lived. From a distance, Luo Tian saw a dim light there. Many people had already come over, holding their hands in their hands.
I was leisurely strolling around in my pocket, and when I saw the antiques I liked, I started to bargain. The scene was not noisy, and everything continued in an orderly manner.
The car parked there steadily. After Luo Tian paid the money, the driver arrived and said, "Young man, I wish you good luck!"
Luo Tianyi raised his hand: "Thank you, master!"
When Luo Tian turned around, Cheng Zhen had already walked into the ghost market and looked around. Looking at the ghost market under the dim light, Luo Tian felt inexplicable. He started from a ghost market and never thought he would come here to trace the origins, but it was also
