Chapter 119 The weird native son
According to the uncle, there lived an old man with a weird temper to the west of Xiping Village.
There is a fixed habit that one hour before the sun sets, no one will be seen.
His name is Erping, and he is a local master.
Tufuzi!
Lin Ran's eyes lit up. Originally, he only planned to visit the two old people this time. He was not fully prepared. He just brought some money with him.
As expected, Xiping Village is full of treasures.
The so-called Tufuzi is the name for tomb robbers in Hunan. In other places, they are also called Mojin Xiaowei. Although they are not as elegant as Mojin Xiaowei, they do the same thing.
"Tufuzi" originally refers to people who make a living by selling yellow mud.
But later, some people discovered cultural relics in the yellow mud, and found that it was more profitable to resell the cultural relics.
So he gradually gave up the yellow mud business and evolved into a profession specializing in tomb robbing.
Tufuzi often have rich experience in dredging, and can be called soil experts, and are extremely sensitive to soil.
A qualified native master can judge whether there are any tombs by looking at the local soil.
It was especially rampant during the Republic of China, but later, the punishment for tomb robbers became stricter, and Tufuzi could only transform in large numbers.
However, as long as one has the ability, the times will never owe anyone anything.
Just when Tufuzi lamented that he had no skills and could not display them.
The archaeological team appeared. The archaeological team is a team that specializes in studying Chinese history. They need historical evidence from the tombs of ancient people.
Moreover, in this era, the archaeological team was short of talents, and Tufuzi just filled this gap. They joined the archaeological team one after another, providing great help to the excavation of Chinese historical civilization.
Therefore, Tufuzi is not a pure tomb robber.
Lin Ran bowed to the uncle and said goodbye: "Thank you for providing the clues. I will come to visit your old man next time."
The uncle also laughed: "Go quickly, don't wait until the sun is about to go down, and you won't be able to see him."
Lin Ran walked along the village road to the west. Sure enough, as the uncle said, there was a strange earthen house near the end of the village.
This earthen house faces south, with flowers and plants planted in front of the yard. It looks like a good opportunity. On the left is a fish pond with fish in it.
On the other side of the yard, there is a bronze tripod, which looks to be of some age.
The yard is backed by a mountain.
As a researcher of folk culture, Lin Ran instantly understood that the native master in front of him was indeed quite capable, despite the fact that his yard decoration seemed to be quite casual.
But in fact, a house made of earth belongs to the five elements of earth.
Fire generates earth, but how can there be a fire all the time in the place where people live, so I used the theory of the mutual generation of five elements to place metal, water, and wood everywhere.
In the words of Mr. Yin Yang, this house is full of spiritual energy and is a treasure of Feng Shui.
However, Lin Ran also felt a little strange.
Because this place is humid, backed by mountains and facing water, the Yin Qi is extremely heavy.
Most businessmen regard yang as the most precious thing and gather wealth to get yang. Since the other party understands the five elements, how can he not understand the art of yin and yang?Doing the opposite?
Lin Ran wouldn't believe it if he said it was unreasonable.
He also became more and more interested and came to his door.
The wooden door is also very elegant. There is a Taotie carving on it, which is obviously done deliberately by the owner.
"Tuk Tuk Tuk"
Lin Ran knocked three times on the door.
Suddenly there were shouts and curses in the room: "What are you knocking on? Get out of here!"
The tone is quite unfriendly.
Lin Ran looked at the time. His luck was really bad. It was already five o'clock and the sun was already setting.
According to what the uncle told him, the other party would not see anyone until an hour before the sun went down.
Immediately I felt embarrassed and regretful. There must be a lot of valuable antiques in the Tufuzi's home. They would not sell them all, but would keep some at home.
The Tufuzi themselves are a group of people who wander outside the rules of society. They make a living by robbing tombs and often dealing with weird things.
The other party is also a person with an eccentric temper, and the rules he has set will definitely not be changed arbitrarily.
Even if Lin Ran was reasonable, he probably wouldn't pay attention to him.
"That's all, come early tomorrow." Lin Ran wrote down the location of the house.
He became even more interested in the strange old man. Generally, only people who are proficient in the art of yin and yang would make such a layout. The rules set down were probably to protect their own safety.
Although there are elements of feudal superstition, Lin Ran will not categorically deny the wisdom of his ancestors!
And from the layout of his house, the bronze tripod in the yard, and the carvings on the wooden door, we can see that the person in front of him is quite capable.
He might actually have something good on his hands!
Lin Ran thought to himself that he had found a treasure this time.
Lin Ran must come here to visit tomorrow, Lin Ran secretly made a decision.
It was getting late, and his parents would be worried if he didn't go home, so Lin Ran got on his tricycle and rode towards home in the afterglow of the setting sun.
Today was not without gain. Although the tragedy of Li Ke's family made him feel very sad, Uncle Bai Ding's feelings for his family and country infected him, and he also let him know that there was a hidden native master in Xiping Village.
My heart suddenly relaxed a lot.
Arriving at the entrance of the village, Widow Wang and others were chatting under the tree again, although their tone was still mean.
"Xiaoran, why did you come back empty-handed today? Are you lazy?"
Lin Ran already knew that Widow Wang was a talkative person, so she didn't take it seriously.
He gave the unfinished candies he bought in Xiping Village to Widow Wang and her best friends, and said with a smile: "Aunts, this is Xiaoran's kindness, please accept it."
"Haha, you are wise." Widow Wang took the candy with a smile, "No wonder your family is so lucky!"
Lin Ran said goodbye to Widow Wang and others, and rode a tricycle back to his home.
But as soon as I arrived at the door of my house, I found a car parked, and the neighbor's children were playing next to the car again.
But this time, there was no one standing next to the car, and the child seemed more impudent, even smearing mud on the car.
Lin Ran threatened the naughty kid and said, "Don't make trouble, your family won't be able to afford the compensation soon."
The child was frightened by him and ran away instantly.
Lin Ran couldn't help but laugh. The fun of the countryside, the true feelings of the times, and childhood memories are nothing better than this!
Lin Ran stopped the tricycle and took a closer look at the license plate. It was really Yang Jianlong.
What is he doing in his house?So Lin Ran parked the car in a hurry and ran home.
"What my godmother said is true, Jianlong must bear it in mind!" Yang Jianlong was actually joking with his mother's people.
Lin Ran breathed a sigh of relief.
"Xiao Ran, you're back!" Mother Lin had a smile on her face, as did Father Lin.
It can be seen that they are very happy chatting with Yang Jianlong.
Hearing Mother Lin calling Lin Ran, Yang Jianlong immediately turned around. Lin Ran was standing at the door of his home, looking unusually tall in the sunset.
Yang Jianlong's face was full of smiles, and he stood up respectfully: "Godfather, you are finally back!"
