If you don't reject the wind of fate, you won't let yourself have too much obsession; but, the next moment, you will never know where the wind of fate will blow you.

The autumn sun in the small town is warm and warm, the leaves are golden yellow and have not yet fallen, just like the familiarity brewed in this best season, quiet and peaceful.Liu Xiaobai was lying on the table by the glass window, staring at the sycamore trees in the window in a daze.

There are not many sofas in the store, most of them are simple tables and chairs, but there are a few beige sofas by the window, which is the most comfortable to bask in the sun. Every time Liu Xiaobai would occupy one by himself, lying down for an entire afternoon, his body felt as if he had been pumped. Soft as a bone.

At the beginning, there were only a few people who patronized the store, but it was not very far from the high school and junior high school in the county. After a long time, there were more people patronizing, especially on weekends, those sofas were very early. It is occupied by people, it is really a good place to kill time.

One day, a customer came to the store, a woman in her 40s.His cheeks were thin and his clothes were a bit worn out, but the light in his eyes was frighteningly bright.It was raining lightly that afternoon, and it was a bit chilly, and there were not many customers in the store.When the glass door was pushed open, Liu Xiaobai calmly said, "Welcome!"

I only heard a voice that seemed to be ground by sand and said, "Bring me a glass of boiled water." Zhang Min gave the woman a strange look, but there were not many people who only drank boiled water in the bookstore. The scene was weird, and Liu Xiaobai didn't say much.

The woman took the book and sat directly in front of Liu Xiaobai. She didn't open the book in front of her to read, but just stared at Liu Xiaobai.Liu Xiaobai felt a little unnatural being stared at, and asked awkwardly, "Auntie, what do you want from me?" He thought, is this here to find a job?Still recognize him, what can I do with him?It shouldn't be the matchmaker that his parents found to give him a blind date, right? !

After returning home and everything has almost settled down, his parents began to think about arranging his marriage.It's just that Liu Xiaobai stays here for a long time and doesn't go home very often, and he stays for a short time when he goes home, so he is fooled by him casually.His parents had no choice, and it wasn't that they didn't ask the matchmaker to tell him in person, but they were all fooled by him.He didn't want to marry a woman, let alone a strange woman.

Seeing this woman of unknown origin, Liu Xiaobai thought for a while, seeing the way he stared at him, he felt that the most likely thing was to come for a kiss.Thinking about it this way, the more he felt that this woman could not be the mother of a daughter-in-law, to see for herself whether the future son-in-law was satisfied, so she kept staring at him so strangely and with bright eyes——

Liu Xiaobai was almost defeated, thinking that it would be best to escape like this, but it seemed impolite to walk away.He saw the woman drinking water very slowly, with a strange smile on her face, and there was something in that smile that he couldn't explain, which made him feel inexplicably terrified.

When the glass of water was almost finished, it took about ten minutes, the woman pushed a folded piece of paper in front of Liu Xiaobai, without saying a word, she only looked at him with a strange smile, and left .Liu Xiaobai felt confused and breathed a sigh of relief.

He unfolded the piece of paper, only to see that the piece of paper seemed to be in contact with the air, and then a faint image appeared, and then slowly disappeared, leaving only an address written in the lower right corner.Liu Xiaobai was a little dazed, the image disappeared not very quickly, enough for him to see clearly, the image was clearly not too different from the image on the relief in the Bai Family Sacrifice Hall.

The address on that piece of paper, Liu Xiaobai stayed here these days, and usually listened to those people chatting, and knew that this place was quite a famous street.The county where Liu Xiaobai lives is relatively remote, and it is not very developed until now. Even after the destruction of the four olds, many customs have been preserved until now, and it is difficult to get rid of what everyone believes in their hearts.

Such as Feng Shui, fortune-telling, and ghosts and gods.Some people say that what faith believes must be something that cannot be proved, and what can be proved is science or experience.Fengshui, fortune-telling, and ghosts and gods are probably things that cannot be proven. I don’t know if this counts as belief.Liu Xiaobai thought, probably not counting, people probably half-believe these things, and their beliefs must be unshakable.

That street is the well-known Shengun Street.The street is not very long and not very wide, but it is very old. On both sides of the street are very old facades, the kind of doors and walls that are blackened.Most of the shops sell all kinds of funeral supplies, such as coffins, incense candles, paper money, etc. There are also fortune-telling, fortune-telling, divination, and Fengshui. Especially on both sides of the street, there will be many blind people sitting on a small bench On the table, there is a small table in front of them, with lottery or other things on it. They are sitting there, waiting for people who want to get married, have children, study, work, or whose life is not going well, come to ask for help. Pointing out the maze.

Liu Xiaobai knew that the half-immortals in his village often came to this place to guard.He looked at the address, feeling a little dazed, stuffed it in his pocket, and didn't care about it.

This season is also approaching the Chinese New Year.Chinese New Year is a day that seems to be both lively and melancholy.Especially for Liu Xiaobai today.When studying, how much adults care about their grades, how much they want their children to study well, and how eagerly they want their children to get married and have children after graduation and work.

If a person is unable to fulfill the duties considered by the society in accordance with the expectations and order of the society, he will have to bear a lot of pressure.Poor academic performance, unable to meet the society's expectations of a child or student, will be blamed by adults for their disappointment.If you don't get married and have children soon after work, it becomes an unstable factor, and all your relatives and friends surround you like the Pacific police and send you suspicious signals.Of course, as a boy, he doesn't want to marry a girl. For Liu Xiaobai's seven aunts, eight aunts and uncles, he feels that he has deviated from his duty. I was driven crazy by those eyes and words.

He doesn't understand why everyone has to plan life for others, more or less thinks what you should do, if you are not satisfied and deviate from the track that everyone or society thinks, society will discriminate or punish you, why Every individual or society wants to force others to accept what he thinks, but it is often not necessarily right, and if he does not accept it, he will be rejected or punished.This is really like the behavior of a naive child or a tyrant.Sometimes Liu Xiaobai really can't figure it out.
